Live at Squamish, BC festival – Day One review – August 20th, 2011

2008′s Pemberton Festival set the tone for BC festivals. Although many smaller fests have happened over the years (the Virgin Music festival made an impact but seemingly ended here in 2009, the occasional UBC Thunderbird Stadium event) there is nothing like what the rest of the world, and the rest of Canada is used to.

Girl Talk Interview

Girl Talk Interview

Ooh baby, I like it raw….and by raw, I mean Girl Talk.
