There are some great shows coming up this weekend in Vancity and you’d be a true asshole if you just sat at home and ignored them:

Air Supply are going to be making love out of nothing at all at the River Rock Show Theatre @ 7:30 – map – tickets – artist info – [...]

I always hate reading interviews where the journalist doesn’t know what he’s talking about. While I strive to not make those mistakes—let’s hope the boys in Yukon Blonde will forgive my (minor?) oversight on their tour schedule. Otherwise, I think we had quite the pleasant conversation. I don’t get-off on too many [...]

This weekend I’m giving you homework. Take your puppy to the park and play, sit on a patio somewhere and drink some microbrew in the sun, then hit up one of these venues for some live music:

Here’s [...]

The 2010 Record & CD Convention, presented by Neptoon Records, is going to be at the Croatian Cultural Center this Sunday, April 11th from 11am until 5pm. 80+ tables of records, CDs and music memorabilia. 3 bucks to get it, 60 to rent a table and 35 for half a table. There is a guitar [...]

Here’s a few rock and roll shows, a couple pop shows, some inevitably crappy shows and a few what-have-yous for all you Vancity live music enthusiasts this weekend:
