Correction …the Cowboy Junkies CD/DVD is out in Canada. I have but haven’t listened to it yet, although I was a big fan of there’s early on. I did lose interest in them for a while(well more like decade) but I saw them for the first time live in over decade this past summer and their wonderful performance reminded me of why they’re one of Canada’s most underrated(ie in terms of ppularity in their home country) bands ever.

there is no possible human way to resist ‘paper planes’.

Trinity Revisited can be found in Canada. I picked up a copy of the cd/dvd in October while driving through Hamilton. It is excellent. Ryan sings or plays on most of the songs and on one he plays percussion. The dvd is spectacular and the behind the scenes segment is enlightening. It was also available on line at the Junkies website, but due to the 2008 US release they may have pulled it.

I can’t decide if I really do like M.I.A. I think it’s completely dependent on my mood when listening to the music. The first time I heard the album, I thought, ‘how the hell can people like this?’ But I’m really starting to warm up to it now. What’s changed? Who the fudge knows? I guess I just really enjoy hearing gun shots and cash registers mixed with persistent bass…

I’m definitely going to be visiting those sites more often than I’d like to admit, Heather, haha…

Heather -

I'll own the fact that I said "Paper Planes" might be my song of the year. If you weren't talking about my comment then never mind. I agree with you that it's very catchy and unlike anything out there. I have nothing but love for your awesome site, like the guy in Topeka, or Tulsa, I forget.

My sister had that exact notepaper. Given the way she organizes things, she may still have that notepaper. Well do I recognize the bear.

The “Paper Planes” download is in fact pointing at “Straight to Hell” at the moment….
