TORONTO ROCKS tomorrow! Here's hoping we all get home safe and sound!

Nice to see that Pete is still finding new and exciting ways to occupy his time while taking his leave of absence from The Libertines.

I’m still on holiday but I came across a few pieces of news that I couldn’t help but share with you kids!
1. Chris Martin finally behaves like a rock-star!
2. Hipster Bingo is genius!
3. The Datsuns = "most faggy band at Ozzfest"!?! (Me thinks the metal-heads are just jealous cos their girlfriends would rather fuck the boys in the band!)
4. They changed the rules for the big Rolling Stones show… It’s just too bad we won’t be able to shoot off some fireworks as we skateboard merrily along, recording the show with one hand and chugging a 40 of vodka with the other. Tragic really.
5. I saw the Foo Fighters and Pete Yorn (at Bayfest) on Saturday night with a sexy Englishman at my side... I just wanted to show off about that!

Chartattack are winning my love with their love for BRMC.

My university hometown has a SCENE. Who knew? Dig it.

The Music are releasing a DVD!

The Interpol boys kept their word and they’re coming to town! So I suppose I should keep my end of the bargain… So who’s gonna teach me how to play pool?

Sloan’s new song "The Rest Of My Life" kicks my ass. It makes me all patriotic and stuff.

Infograph: Summer Music Festivals. HA!

My dear friend James is visiting from Manchester so I’m going on vaca for the next 2 weeks. DON’T CALL US – WE’LL CALL YOU!

NOOOOOO!!!

First it there was Gangstarr… Then Stellastarr… Now Whitestarr… Jesus... The double-R trend has gone to far. I would like to formally order a progression onto the double-T trend (ex. hott) next.

Awww. I’m so jealous. The Modern Age has brill pix of NYC’s MOB #3. Toronto needs a MOB!

Last night’s BRMC show was s-s-s-smouldering. As was Rob. *Sigh*

Sign me up for Punk Rock Aerobics!!! Please!

The only new Stroke-related news I can find is the never-ending saga of Fab'n'Drew. That and pictures of Julian and Albert holding hands.

America still sucks. Especially for the fans of under-age drinking. Boo-urns!

Popbitch reports on Matt Bellamy! Apparently, on a press trip in Belgium, Muse frontman spent the whole day staring at his pregnant press officer. Eventually he walked up to her and asked, "Are you into tantric sex?" ... And as for me, well, I'd be lying if I said this didn't arouse me.

Kelly O is to star in 'Malice In Sunderland'. I hope it doesn't suck. For her sake.

A young man is dead after becoming the victim of a drive-by shooting following the 50 Cent concert in Toronto on Tuesday night... Imagine that... A rapper glorifies gun violence and one of his fans pays the price... It's fucking unnecessary man.

Relive the magic of Glasto! And pay particular attention to The Glasto Weblog as Lauren Laverne makes an appearence! "Lauren Laverne and I agreed that a stop at Stonehenhge was ESSENTIAL. Therefore a frankly giddy twosome, wandered around the historic edifice agreeing that it gave 'good henge'. We then put on our 'I Heart The Darkness' headbands and both sang "Growing On Me" while we were missing the band in question..." - Phill Jupitus

O Canada! Today I'm proud to be able to sing my national anthem in TWO languages! And I'm glad I can smoke weed or marry a woman if I wanted to... Ahh sweet freedom!

Incase you didn’t get last month's memo...
Updates might be few and far between this summer.
Work and play take priority over blogging!
