Just wanted to give a shout out to a few of the folks doing some amazing things in Vancouver.

At the Peanut Gallery last night - thankfully there was a Metronomy show a few blocks away that pulled a good chunk of the hipsters away. Not often that it happens, but really great venue, good people, amazing music. They were throwing a going away party for Luka from Basketball, who's moving to Barcelona to regroup with his bandmates.

No Gold (they're a lot better live)
Basketball (no music online) - these guys made the summer of 2008 in Vancouver. Serious music heavy weights. Picked up the Secret Mommy/Basketball 7" last night, and it's worth the money. (If anyone is interested I'll see if I can procure some copies. It's amazing stuff, Secret Mommy's track is an ode to Basketball/Summer '08, and a spastic-electro-percussion jam by Basketball on the other side)

Given the amount of shit I talk about this city it's about time I started giving it some dues. There's some seriously great things happening here. From time to time, at least. When they're not shutting down all the venues and persecuting creativity.
