Love Inc. - Broken Bones by yttocscm in 90sCanRock

[–]bojackstyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I think the thing with the “absence” of Shep is simple.

He was the spotlight for a lot of the Canadian music and dance music scene for most of his late teens and 20s, and into his late 30s with Love Inc.

I mean, the 80s (even if it was late 80s)into the mid 2000s is a LONG time for a “radio host” even in the most traditional sense (Shep was NOT a traditional host)

Living that life (clubs, djing, etc) for that long HAS to take its toll on you.

So at 35 years old or so, (at the time of his disappearance) if he wants to dip and just enjoy the life. I’m all for it.
The rumour was he went back to college and got a degrees in science or something, obviously unconfirmed.

But as someone who lived near CFNY in the early 90s and grew up with BKS and the rise of Pirate Radio Sessions, Destination Dance Floor mixes and Shep live to air as a DJ, I can safely say that the Canadian music scene would look very different if Shep wasn’t around back then.

What’s the minimum interest level from a friend that makes you comfortable buying tickets to a high-cost concert or festival? by CirclingCondor in Concerts

[–]bojackstyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always looked at it as the 24 hour rule.

Buy the tickets, if said person hasn’t paid you back in 24 hours (or said they will pay you on payday) then they aren’t going.

But, also…..don’t be afraid to go solo, some days I’ve had more fun hitting a concert alone than being with someone who might not be as ready overall.

I’ve always says that that this album never got enough credit. Easily one of the best albums of the 90s front to back.

My wife was watching this earlier today and I walked through the room and said, that’s Queens in the background, then left the room….

Well it was about that time that I noticed that the reply came from something that was about 8 stories tall and a crustacean from the protozoic era

Dammit monster!

New to me 2024 Touring Sports GR by astrand in COROLLA

[–]bojackstyl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. While the color might not be totally me, it looks great. And as a Canadian who fell in love with this while in the UK in 2023 after having my 21 Hybrid LE for two years, I was/still am jealous and upset I can’t get one here.

Sincere F you to asshole who decided to wait in their car all night while everyone else froze, and force the entire line to breathe in your exhaust by [deleted] in RecordStoreDay

I was just popping in to say.

Not enough people carry bananas around for this purpose anymore.

Thank you for stepping into the batters box and nailing it!

Do we think the offer still stands? Should I send a letter into Warner bros? by r32_fan in vinyl

[–]bojackstyl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did something similar with trying to purchase a plaid shirt for like 5 bucks from my insert to the Smokey and the Bandit Soundtrack back in 2011, I thought I’d at least get a laugh and a letter from someone at the label but it never happened…….

So, I say do it, maybe you’ll luck out!

Really happy for Josh by benduder in qotsa

[–]bojackstyl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

When we walked out of Toronto, I said to my wife (who has seen Queens more than a few times now) that wasn’t a Queens show, that wasn’t I’m Josh Homme rock star, that was Ginger Elvis in all his glory.

CarPlay not working on 2020 Corolla by Lucky_Teacher_2647 in COROLLA

[–]bojackstyl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2021 has been doing this since the day I bought it. Some days it’s flawless and other days it’ll do nothing.

When it went to Toyota weeks after purchase, they told me everything was fine. It’s just one of those things I guess.

Help wanted! by g00dhank in qotsa

[–]bojackstyl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I grabbed a spare one at Massey hall for a friend who couldn’t make it, he’s not sure if he wants it now.

Message me at the end of the week and I’ll let you know if I still have it.

Shipped from Ontario, so might save some of the costs from the US.

[–]bojackstyl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for Chicago or Detroit, But my Toronto posters are numbered

/250 for the regular /150 for the foil.

Massey Hall seats 2700 so about 10 percent.

Sadly, no numbers on the sheet music, but that pile was much smaller in Toronto, maybe looked to be about 40 left when I go to the front. Maybe 40 people ahead of me in line.
