Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark @ Le National

March 11 2011 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark are back on North American soil for the first time, with their original line-up, since 1988. I had the chance to catch the tour's second show, at Le National on Sunday March 6th 2011. I need to state something: this was kind of a special show for me to see because I actually saw them on their last tour here; yes, I am talking about the 1988 tour.

The night will take place at Helm (273 Bernard W.) in the Mile End from 9:00 pm until close.

Uncle Ian from the Go-Go Radio Magic Show will be spinning tunes from the new record as well as sets built around the latest offering from the boys who put Athens, Georgia on the map.

When So Real Radio was pitched to CJLO originally it was meant to feature Brandon Calder and then co host Draga Sfetsios. At the last moment the boys decided to add another piece to an already great concept and so began the journey of Sarah El Fangary at CJLO.

Film Review - Beastly

March 7 2011 // Magazine // Features

If you want to see a mirror image of what a major part of our society has become then Beastly is a film that you should go watch.  What if the wonderful story of “Beauty and the Beast” was set in a high school filled with beautiful people who knew they were beautiful? Well, that is pretty much the whole story.
