Khatsahlano Music and Art Festival - Kistlano

Last weekend 10 city blocked where a massive street party in one of the trendiest and busiest suburbs in downtown Vancouver. It is the Khatsahlano Music and Art Festival and it is sponsored by one of the largest radio stations around the Fox.

At every street intersection there were either stages with house music, rock, folk, hip hop and even electric violins and the streets were lined with market stalls, skaters, artists and performers. It was pretty kick ass. There was even College league dodgeball going on.

Thank goodness for public transport as over 50,000 people walked that street over the weekend. It was a bit of a bitch to get down there as like most cities the public transport runs a little slower on the weekends but most people took PT so it was all good.

Can't and won't complain with a major city putting on a sweet free festival for everyone. It was pretty ace and most of the artists were local so it is a great way to support local talent. SO MANY HIPSTERS! Man they are EVERYWHERE.

I also managed to do a bit of husband scouting for my Boo in Australia, Courtney, I FOUND ONE for her. We now just have to find him and stalk him a bit. I am sure he is going to super appreciate the effort we are going to go to.



They caught me




For all of the photos from the day they are on Facebook - HERE


Sunday I had Improv again and it is always a fun day of laughing. It was also my last week of freedom as I started work on Monday. It was great but I am now so tired. Two short weeks next week cause of FaerieWorlds which is pretty sweet.

Busy weekend this weekend as well but just wanted to update the blog at least on a weekly basis and put some photos up.

Finished the first completed draft of my first eBook which I am pretty excited about. Now just have to put the finishing touches on it and get someone to look over it for a final edit.

Went and saw Pacific Rim, man the movie screens here are so awesome it was so worth the 3D. Plus 3D movies on a Tuesday here are like $12. Cheap Tuesdays in canada are like $7 you remember when that was the case in Australia..... yeah me too. We is being screwed down under with movies.

Hope the people who sent me their addresses are starting to get their first little something. If you haven't sent me your postal addy email me and I will put you on the mailing list.



Good way to celebrate a new job


Peace out for now, the sun is shining still (we have been apparently spoilt the weather has been AMAZING) going to go enjoy it at another festival and meet up with some peeps at a cafe.

Will update again next weekend.
