My thoughts on Sass Jordan, a big-voiced rocker with indomitable spirit.

High praise and a sick burn.

Unrelated, but I went back to listen to Duncan Sheik's 1996 hit Barely Breathing. I have no memory of it at all. Not surprised it chartered though. It sounds like every popular song from the mid-90s synthesized into one breezy four minute tune.

The aliens have assumed control: Quebec math-rock duo Angine de Poitrine has won the @polarismusicprize.bsky.social for their album “Vol II" and the song prize for “Fabienk.”

Interesting aside in @aislingmurph.bsky.social's review of Soulpepper's production of the 1906 German tragedy Spring Awakening. Some thought they were coming to see the 2006 Broadway musical adaptation by Steven Sater & Duncan Sheik (who died a few days ago). www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/stag...

"boxer who was never knocked down in 93 fights" sounds like something they made up for a movie, like the whole Khabib has never bled in a fight thing, a factoid that literally has no business existing. RIP, legend.

Are you okay with the way Mitch trotted him out? It wasn't dignified. He'd bring him to a Lightfoot concert or the re-opening of the El Mocambo. I never understood why.

Damien Jurado at the Horseshoe Tavern tonight.

Got to my 500 level seat for tonight's @bluejays.com game, only to find that it's an obstructed view. It's not sold as such. At least I'm shielded from Jesus Sanchez's outfield antics?

Moneyball deep cut!

I get the reference, but describing Aimee Mann as an '80s Rush singer is weird. I suppose it speaks to Rush's sudden, unexpected place in the music zeitgeist of 2026.

A Who reunion? It's barely been a year since their last concert.

Disappointed Rick Moranis failed to show for Christopher Cross's Ride Like the Wind tonight at RBC Amphitheatre.
