It’s is a soggy chilly spring in Calgary which has had me hunkered down with some dvd’s and books as of late.
I have a major crush (school girl and harmless!) on The Flight Of The Conchords. And actually it’s more like a crush on the concepts, songs and ideas than on the boys themselves- damn funny and smart though…I know they are no longer a secret, but I advise you watch some episodes anyway! I think after we went to NY, I felt more akin to their New York-looking-to-be-discovered storylines. I keep hoping I’ll have a David Bowie dream (circa The “Let’s Dance” era for me thanks).
And I have just finished “Late Nights On Air” by Elizabeth Hay. An amazing book really- I felt like I was in the room with the radio station employees as they lived out their choices and intimate relationships with their egos, and between their loves. Plus I have yet to go more northern in Canada than Prince George, so I enjoyed the literary backdrop of sparse Yellowknife. This radio station theme also tied in nicely as I taped an interview for CBC in town, which should likely air in August…I’ll keep you posted.
These are the people and books on my mind lately. I hope we have some more music to send your way soon,
Namaste
