YVR – Lost Lovers Brigade
Vancouver’s Lost Lovers Brigade have just released their debut LP, the country tinged “Little Skeletons”. It is a late entry into my favorite albums of the year.
Their release party is tomorrow (fri) at Interurban Gallery presented by Scratch Records and our homeslices CITR 101.9 fm. Event page.
After the Prince concert you will find me here. Just got really excited typing that.
Since it is the season of giving, here are my three fave cuts from the album. Maybe I will see you tomorrow? Tell them “Winnie” sent you and ask if they have any bro deals. When they give you a bad look mumble something about spending too much time on the internet and that your head hurts.
Whole album for listen / buy here.
Lost Lovers Brigade – Lonely Neighbour
Lost Lovers Brigade – All the Stars

Saturday: CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ
It would seem that throughout history all of life’s most urgent questions have been eloquently answered by Female MC’s. It was Lil’ Kim after all who asked “How Many Licks Does it Take Till you Get to the Centre”; an issue that men had been pondering for decades prior. To repay these ladies for enriching our lives and solving our most intimate of inquires, Ponyboy and Winniecooper.net present CHECK DEEZ GRILLZ, Saturday, December 17, at the infamous Astoria. Hosted by man babe Rad Stewart, this event will bring out some of Vancouver’s hottest hip hop DJ’s, including DJ MISS M.
Although she currently resides in Vancouver, DJ MISS M (@djmissm) has travelled around the world opening up for such musical heavyweights as Nelly, Fatman Scoop, and T-pain. And as the only female member of the DRAMA SQUAD CREW, featuring GTL junkie DJ Pauly D, DJ MISS M is proving that females really can do it better.
Here’s a recent interview with MISS M, where she describes her musical roots and gives you a preview of what to expect come Saturday.
How Did you Start Djing?

Most hilarious moment behind a pair of turntables?
Halloween 3 years ago, I had a group of girls dress up as different Britney Spears’ (Bald Britney, Mom Britney, School Girl Britney, Slave for you Britney, etc). At the end of the night Britney spears fake baby and a snake (from slave from you video) was left spinning on top of the turntables. Fun night!

Thursday: Topless Gay Love Tekno Party
The highly theatrical, lovers of space age costumes, glitter and glam Top Less Gay Love Tekno Party play Thursday, December 15th. They are saying it will be THEIR MOST AMBITIOUS performance yet at the Rickshaw Theatre.
The unveiling of new costumes is sure to set off an extreme dance fever that will take bumpin’ and grindin’ to the big leagues. They must be doing something right as they recently sold out the Biltmore which is pretty good for a local act, amirite?
Doors open at 8 p.m. TLGLTP perform early in the evening at 10 p.m.
Looks to be a gay old time as The Gay Nineties, who also play Winnie Cooper’s Christmas Party & Charity Raffle next week (c what I did there) open the show off.
A dance party follows with DJ sets from BRITE FUTURES, CHEEKY DISCO & TOP LESS GAY LOVE TEKNO PARTY.
Topless Gay Love Tekno Party – My Five
Advance Tickets $15
