Flexx

August 7, 2011 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Last Tuesday night I had the pleasure of attending an incredible dance show, Flexx, as a part of Divers/Cité Montreal (thank you Mr. Director!) Musically, they primarily used a beautiful, thin orchestral score except for one well-placed Cat Power song. I immediately knew I would use it for snapshots. However, the only pic I wanted to match it with was this breathtaking shot of Britt Lavigne. This lovely lady and I used to dance together on a competitive hip hop team […]

Now I’m Not a Highly Metaphysical Man

August 5, 2011 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Sorry guys, I’ve been the worst at posting lately. It’s been a busy couple of weeks- girl’s gotta life, ya know? I have quite a few half-baked posts saved so I’ll work on them some more and hopefully be posting more frequently in the near future. This pic was taken at the Mercat de Sant Josep de la Boqueria in Barcelona. It’s one of my favourite places in the world. (Side note: the market dates back to 1217.) I did mentioned […]

Closing Jazz Fest

July 5, 2011 by snapshotsandneedledrops

The Love Shack is a little ole place where 100,000 people can get together. Last night my friends and I went to the closing concerts of the 2011 Montreal International Jazz Festival. On the main stage the B-52s were rocking it like it was 1989. The place was a mad house. Apparently by the time the 80s band graced the stage over 100,000 people had crowded into Place-des-Arts. After paying our respects to the B-52s by grooving to their tunes […]

Johnny

July 3, 2011 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Johnny Cash… This is going to take a while. In his long career he released 96 albums and 153 singles. His redemptive story is told through the film Walk the Line, but students of popular music come across the Man in Black repeatedly. There’s just so much to this man’s story and the people he affects. A couple years ago I attended an event featuring Bob Johnston, a record producer for Cash, as well as others like Bob Dylan, the Byrds, […]

Temporary Fix

June 23, 2011 by snapshotsandneedledrops

Today I was attacked. Once upon a time, and by that I mean a couple hours ago, this damsel was battling her way back to her Air Conditioning-less fortress. Five minutes into the saga, in a shocking turn of events, my (third person is pretentious) trusty steed, my umbrella,* tried to kill me! In a flash it collapsed! Drenching me with rain water and slicing up my hand. Within seconds my palm and fingers looked like I had decided to follow […]
