Poetry Is Dead:

There's a new magazine in Vancouver called Poetry Is Dead and they celebrated their launch with a party at a packed Grace Gallery last week. There were some awesome poems read and I am lucky enough to have a copy of the magazine beside me now to read!


I did a post over on Vancouver is Awesome...check it out there!

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:

Vancouver IS Awesome...The Launch of SCENE & HEARD

So I just wrote about how I'm now a contributor to Vancouver Is Awesome...apparently I'm also (kind of) a writer now too.

I've been appointed organizer/do-er of a new series for the website called Scene & Heard...where the local indie music artists interview each other...The first post of the series is of my good friends Nat Jay and Adaline, who were kind enough to be my guinea pigs! But I wont go into it, because you can read it right here: www.vancouverisawesome.com/2009/10/27/scene-and-heard-nat-jay-adaline

Vancouver IS Awesome... still.

So many good things happening right now...and I'm exhausted.

I have officially started contributing to Vancouver Is Awesome. I have a little picture on the contributors list and everything.
My first post came from photos that Jon sent me of a beaver lodge in Charleson Park by the seawall in False Creek.
You can check out my post here!

Vancouver IS Awesome..

I swear this is the last of the Dan stuff...mainly because I have nothing left, and I'm in Ontario currently and Dan is not.

A very wonderful website called: Vancouver Is Awesome came to my attention not too long ago, and I got in touch with them about Dan's CD release show, and suggested they do a Vancouver's Most Awesome questionnaire with him...

They did - so click here to read it.
It features portraits of Dan taken by Jonathan Taggart and one of my shots from the Zulu show.
