just a reminder that Arcade Fire will be on The Daily Show tonight

I've always been a fan of Jian. Generally I enjoy all of his interviews.

And that seems correct to me.

yes indeed. i read it wrong.

yay! although there seems to be some figure skater haters here, I am super proud and happy for the Canadian Ice Dancers Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir who just won gold! Their free skate tonight was beautiful! I grew up watching figure skating, then stopped, and then I saw this teams free skate from last season and got hooked again. Fantastic team!

Pretty amazing how either Canada or Russia won't even make it to the medal round.

this is incorrect.

gah! this one hurt...

Team Canada had some AMAZING chances. That USA goalie was pretty damn good tonight.

Next time, USA....next time....

curling = awesome

agreed! the men's Canada vs Great Britain last night was a GREAT game.

It's a really nice venue and I remember the last time they played there I was really impressed with the sound. Have a great time!

I was definitely pleased with the show last night. The crowd was great and the atmosphere was really fun. It was a little torturous to stand through Default. I thought Califone was ok but I had a hard time hearing them. I thought the sound for Wilco, however, was really incredible considering the venue.

This was my first time seeing the band since (the album) came out, and I was really impressed with how the new songs sounded live. One Wing and You Never Know were definitely highlights for me. I have to say that I love hearing Hate it Here and Walken live. They both have such a fun groove to them! The guys seemed to be having fun throughout the night and I wish the show could have lasted longer.

I topped off my night by running over to Robson Square and hearing Jeremy Fisher play a short set near the skating rink. I LOVE him! It was a very fun day!!!

at this point i'm pretty sure that if you don't have a passport, you're not going to get through.

I saw both of his shows in january here in vancouver. i have to say i was pretty disappointed. both nights there were some excruciating phases with really hard and distorted sounds. i wish i had brought my earplugs. he played some really nice tunes, took a few requests from the crowd, but overall he seemed super depressed and certainly made my sister and i leave the show feeling really conflicted.

there's another new song streaming on the drag city website: http://www.dragcity.com/

I am really freakin' excited about this album!!

Damn, Jay! So sorry to hear this. I am sending you lots of supporting vibes

sweet! thanks for the heads up.

Donna, you deserve an amazing birthday and another year filled with love and laughter!!!!

i despise leno! i know, this adds nothing to the conversation. i just needed to get it off my chest.

so, rumours have it that Joanna's next album will be out February 23rd! I am super excited about this!!!

we are having a beautiful white christmas in southern alberta! second white christmas in a row!! happy holidays to all of you

Scott, I hope your birthday was wicked!!!! Here's to another great year

congrats Chris!!!

sweetness! i saw Basia a couple years ago at the Calgary Folk Fest and got a major girl crush on her. Saw her again this past september and I think she's definitely grown as a live performer. I can't wait to see her again and hear her new album when it comes out!
