I'll skip the crap about how it's been a long time, yada yada yada.

Things are going okay with the degree, thanks for asking, but the summer is moving by at breakneck speed, and I am afraid to blink for fear that it will whip by me completely if I do.

Anyway, you'll notice I've put some rolling website links there at the bottom of the post. These are links to websites I've read that I've found interesting and/or informative. Feel free to check them out and comment on anything you like, starting a discussion here would be great.

So I'm going to see Nicolai Dunger this weekend at the Media Club here in Van City. I'm covering the show for It's a Trap, a site that specializes in Scandinavian artists, probably more thoroughly and better than any site I can think of. I'll be sure to post the link for that when it's available. He's a man with great songs and a killer set of pipes, and I've been a fan for a couple of years now. So to introduce the uninitiated to him, here's a video for "Hunger", off his latest North American release, Here's My Song, You Can Have It...I Don't Want It Anymore/Yours 4-Ever:





And since I'm new at this YouTube embedding thing, here's one of my all-time favourite videos, "Safety Dance" by Men Without Hats (you're welcome, Kristen):





Maybe I'll just start posting fave videos every now and again. Keep checking.

Until next time, everyone.
