Bruno Mars Is the Closest Thing to a Modern Michael Jackson

Bruno Mars Is the Closest Thing to a Modern-Day Michael Jackson Toronto, let's talk. Bruno Mars just did something that does not happen by accident: he helped set a new single-day ticket sales record as The Romantic Tour went on sale, moving an eye-popping 2.1 million tickets in a day. And right here at home, Toronto demand was so loud that what started as two shows has now turned into […]

Dear D’Angelo Please Come Back – John Mayer

I was in the middle of writing the below when my WhatsApp music group " Musicology" was going off. I haven't updated my site in a while, so having a moment to add a few more words was important. But friends are more important, so I pick up my phone and open WhatsApp. At first, I was overjoyed, thinking that D'Angelo was touring and making a 2nd stop here in […]

Why I’m Leaving Social Media (Slowly) for My Site

Why I’m Slowly Removing Myself from Social Media—and Making This Site My Home & Legacy I’ve been online long enough to remember when “status” updates literally started with “Wayne is…” and when a poke was… well, an actual poke. I was one of those day-one-ish Facebook signups (2008–2009), when the Wall, News Feed, and that brand-new Like button were becoming the default way friends kept up—right around the time quizzes, […]

Whatever Happened to the Song of the Summer?

The summer anthem is missing—and I feel it I grew up in Toronto when summer had a soundtrack. Saturday bus rides downtown to HMV to buy the latest CDs, MuchMusic blaring from storefronts, Caribana bass shaking the pavement on Lakeshore (or University St if you can remember that far back), and me posted up at my friend’s place—everyone crowding around that RadioShack one-speaker Realistic radio like it was the CN […]

T-Pain Does It Again

I remember when I first got the music game Rockband for my Xbox. I had a guitar, drums, and mic set up in my living room, ready to jam out. The game stood out because it exposed me to songs I had never heard otherwise. As a former drummer, I appreciated "the band." There's nothing like hearing The Roots, Mint Condition, Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi jamming on stage and […]
