tour times
DAY ONE
BUFFALO, NY
i love kicking off tour with a visit to my dear friend naomi, drummer girl supreme. she is right across the border in buffalo and she always makes us feel right at home. homemade salads and a selection of wine awaited us. a jaunt down to a local roadhouse for celebratory tour kick off drinks and some great live music from naomi’s friend corey coleman was on order...

When you were a kid, what did you want to be when you grew up?
rock n roll forever. my first concert was when i was 6… i gave it in our backyard to my parents and our neighbours. i had one of those plastic guitars with strings that don’t actually resonate or make a proper note while singing beatles songs.

What TV show do you wish would go off the air for good?
we actually don’t have cable. we sold our TV, in fact, but got a much nicer one off free craigslist recently. we use it to watch seinfeld dvds but otherwise i’m not really sure what is even on television these days.

What was the worst place you’ve traveled to?
the innermost depths of our own minds. our method of travel shall remain nameless.

boyfriend and girlfriend or just friends?
two separate lives, fueled by energy and karma, have synergized in the form of a chance meeting that led to our relationship; both musically and personally.

pedals to the metal
we’ve had some requests to share our pedal setups. there was this awesome website (which is now considered ancient) that had these little cartoon pedal setups of some pretty awesome guitar players (like rivers from weezer and jonny greenwood and the girl from LUSH)…oh wait, i just looked at it and it seems like it HAS been recently updated. yay!

so many things to blabber about i don’t even know where to start.
tonight we have choices to make. toronto is one hell of a city. we love it. on any given night in any month in any season there are shows, eats, treats, music, art…anything you fancy to take in and savor. our friend allie price who starred in the hedwig/debbie double bill with us is performing with her sketch...
breaking up is hard to do....
tomorrow is our last show. i have an enormous amount of emotion to deal with when it comes to closing night. closing night. i use that term as if i KNOW what it means. as if i;’ve been through it before. i’ve toured and had “last night of tour” feelings. or have come home from tour and slept in my bed for the first time in months and woken up not knowing where i was...
Today's yummy dinner is SPICY MANGO LIME SALAD
I’ve really developed a fine tuned intuition when it comes to cooking. I can also make something out of nothing. Just call me Jesus (note sarcasm please). Today while strolling through Kensington Market I picked up some scallions and red peppers. I needed the peppers for a Lentil Butternut Squash Curry I was originally planning on making for dinner. Then something drew me to scallions....
HAPPY WORLD VEGAN DAY!
In celebration of World Vegan Day I made a super delicious and simply satisfying meal
CHILI ALMOND ASPARAGUS!!!!!!
Truly delicious! A simple white table wine totally complimented the CHILI and Lemon Zest in this delightful dish. I had seconds. And…asparagus? Hello, ASPARAGUS is a well known SUPER FOOD that aids in halting the spread of cancer. Eat it at LEAST twice a week.
Here is...

“Killer local electro-rock duo Vicious Guns make up the core of Hedwig’s live band, the Angry Inch. Grafting a live band onto a show can be hit-and-miss, but Richard Haydon (guitar) and Jenny MacIsaac (bass) totally rock as Hedwig (Seth Drabinsky) spins her glammy yarn about starting a band in America after...

“Beautifully performed by Seth Drabinsky as Hedwig with strong supporting work by L.A. Lopes as Yitzhak, this show rides the tides of the highs and lows Hedwig experiences with grace and fierce, angst-ridden energy. “The Vicious...

From www.torontostage.com
Playing in reparatory is Hedwig and the Angry Inch, an offbeat emotional comedy that’s unusually satisfying, darkly funny, smartly directed and splendidly performed. This is a musical toast that is the rarest of indie plays with its risky and exciting content. Playgoers are treated to freshness, humour and honesty from beginning to end.

yummy vegan meals = health
it’s not really cooking unless you draw blood….your OWN blood…not the blood of a poor defenceless creature raised for slaughter.
i am not by any means a conventional girl with desperate housewife dreams, but i like to take care of me and my man. we like to stay healthy and treat our bodies right. we do this by being vegan and buddhist and working out our bodies and minds.
