This was my second trip down to the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago, and I continue to be impressed by the three day celebration.

I was lucky enough to attend the Brave Radar & Dirty Beaches show in Toronto at Rancho Relaxo. It was very fun.

Dirty Beaches is swarmed with groupie girls, yet behaves like a gentleman.

Over the course of running the Outdoor Site (read: Beer Tent) at the 18th edition of the Ste-Ambroise Montreal Fringe Festival I was able to snap a few shots of the goings on around the tent.

It is:
a) the story of two people who walk in the snow to get beer,
b) shot in Montreal on a photo camera with low resolution,
c) edited by Tessa while staying with her parents over the winter break,
d) made for small format [...]

A few days back my good friend Risa and I were having a conversation about receiving assistance from the business community for our projects.

Oh, the terrible 2s…
Mainline is teething! And to celebrate, they ain’t pacifying, they be partifying! (Worst. Party plug. Ever.)
The folk that produce the Fringe are throwing a party to commemorate the birth of Mainline Theatre and you’re all invited! Need a place to grab a beer and schmooze with local make doers on the theatre [...]
