Skating Party!

Radio 3 had a skating party at Robson Square the other day. Hannah, Dan Mangan & Dan Moxon were there, as well as the R3 kids...

Had an excellent time skating around with Hannah...took this shot of us under the skylight dome:


More shots on Flickr...yes, I caved, but I don't think I will be using it for much, besides stuff like this.

A Day At The Ceeb

On the 4th of December (which is actually my mom's birthday! Happy Birthday Mum!) I spent ...around 6 hours at the newly renovated CBC Vancouver building, which they opened up to the public for a day!

The main goal of the day was to (at the prompting of Sas) find, and have my photo taken with, Ian Hanomansing(h). In addition to this I spent a lot of my time in the Radio 3 studio broadcast, watching Said The Whale and Hannah Georgas perform live to air, and to the visitors to the building.

I also finally met up with Bob from VancouverIsAwesome.com as he was being interviewed for Grant Lawrence's show.

It was a pretty awesome day/a total geek out looking behind the scenes and meeting some great people (plus Chris Kelly got me my R3 t-shirt and touque!)
All of the photos from the day can be found here: www.mcavoy.ca/CBCOpenHouse ... and here are a few of my favs:

Indie King vs. Hindi King

It was the Bombay.

Dan Mangan was at the CBC Radio 3 studios to do an interview and a Pun-Off with host Tariq Hussain and I tagged along to take some shots.
It was extremely amusing, esp. to be behind the scenes and watch them writing out their list of puns. I think Dan won in the end...it was definitely the 'ovum' joke.
