Tonight! (Wednesday, July 15) - Colourbook, 'It It, Almonds, Cohen at Bayanihan Community Centre. Come watch Brock play in every band before he moves to Toronto! This will be the last Almonds show in Victoria for a while, and the last 'It It show forever. Also, come see Colourbook's newly spray painted van - SHITTY STEVE!
This weekend is the annual What the Heck Fest happening on the other side of the San Juan Islands in Anacortes, Washington. I think I will finally make it over there this year. More info and lineup is here. It costs the same to walk onto the ferry as it does to bring your bike. See you there!
After three years on the air, this Sunday will be the last Carload of Whatever. Thanks to anyone who ever tuned in, called in, read this poorly maintained blog, or came out to any of the A&R all ages shows. It was all pretty cool!

Old Lifer Cody Spencer was here last Sunday to talk about the brand new Old Life Compilation. We worked our way through the songs on the new comp, and shared relatively interesting information about each band/artist along the way.
This Sunday be sure to tune into both Gumdrops & Lollipops and Carload of Whatever to hear TWO live in studio performances. G&L will be hosting a live set from My Friend Wallis, a new local tropical band made up of most of Vincat and some of their friends. Carload of Whatever will host an acoustic set from Almonds, Cohen.
My Friend Wallis will be releasing their debut record on Saturday night at the new 16 1/2 space in Fan Tan alley. Also performing that night will be Himalayan Bear and 'It It.
Almonds, Cohen will be playing live on Sunday night at Bayanihan Community Centre along with Iji, Watercolor Paintings and Ruthie & Winfield.
Party time.
