I don’t remember having school dances as early as Grade 3 but the kid’s school had been having dances for them since school started this year. The entrance fee is $5 and they provide snacks and drinks with supervision of course from their own teachers. And it’s a real dance, like a prom dance with [...]
Bought a whole load of music stuff from a supplier in Toronto – to re-sell at the store. People always asked for picks and we only have guitar strings for starters, so this time, I ordered a few more things to see if it would sell. Hopefully, it does – so that we have another [...]
I didn’t know that guitar strings were different, so when my dad wanted some for his 12 string guitar – I bought him some Electric Guitar Strings instead online. So for those of you who are looking for guitar strings, make sure you tell them exactly what kind you want – for an electric guitar [...]
The Fall for Flamenco Festival in Halifax is on October 11 and the spouse had specifically asked me to book tickets for the show. She likes the group from Spain and of course all the fun Rhythm instruments they play during the festival. We’ve been to the one they had in February and she [...]
Most of you would know that I’ve been getting into a lot of musical instrument at the store, that’s because I’ve just started picking up guitar lessons. I figured one is never too old to learn something new and like the spouse said to me every time, that I should go take up an instrument [...]
Ever since my basement is done – the buddies had been asking if they can jam in my basement. I had sound proof the basement because I have a darn powerful speaker in the basement for my 3D tv – but to bring in an akai apc40 and jam in my basement I would have [...]
We have been watching this show the “Pawn Stars” and although you wouldn’t think that you would learn anything from the show – well you are wrong because this show taught me about guns and musical instruments like none other. I never knew about Gibson Les Paul guitar or its value till I watched this [...]
During February each year, we see a lot of people from town heading to Halifax for the Canada’s Got Talent audition and of course, some of our friends who sings and wants to be the next Canadian Idol rushed up to the city for the audition. Either they are really passionate about singing or they [...]
We have no less than 3 iPod’s in the house currently, and another one in the car. The one in the car is there because the headphone jack is messed up, but I have one of those Belkin thingies that plug into the cigarette lighter and broadcast your iPod tunes through the car radio. It [...]
I feel like I wasted nearly a thousand bucks a few years back when I bought my new car. I opted for the Audiophile package that included an in-dash 6 disc CD changer and supposedly better than average speakers. I’m pretty happy with the speakers really, but the 6 disc changer rarely gets used since [...]
While playing Rock Band at a friends house the other day we were yakking about what new songs we’d like to see in the game. He thought some of my choices were a little retarded, but then some of his were out to lunch too if you ask me. Tipa at West Karana just had [...]
Singer/song writer Alisa Apps recently admitted that she sucks her thumb but is trying to stop. The video she posted looks more like a ploy for attention rather than an actual confession of some ‘dark secret’. I can’t say as I have any secret vices of my own really, just typical stuff like eating chocolate [...]
I know that you spent really good money on your CD, and that you want to be able to listen to it while you’re working out, but sometimes the machines at the gym are louder than a construction zone. Thankfully, Quiet Headphones has a great selection of noise canceling headphones and earbuds. With these you [...]
