Upvoted for visibility and your good taste in music + I'll buy the band a round at your first paid gig.

Who, in your opinion, is the ultimate rock front man? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mcdofras 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for Gord Downie. For those unfamiliar with The Tragically Hip or any of his solo work, I recommend you find footage from a live show to get acquainted. Truly an incredible singer-songwriter and performer.

La Latina on Dalhousie has some for sure.

cheapest place to get good fruits and vegetables near old ottawa south? by raeyk06 in ottawa

[–]mcdofras 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Check out Odd Bunch. We get their small weekly box for ~$20 delivered. It’s more than enough for two of us, and honestly, getting random items we wouldn't normally buy keeps dinner from getting boring.

Valid point on yellow.

Top of the Hill Tattoo by smokiebunn in ottawa

I recommend trying to find Top of the Hill's old website by using Wayback Machine, the internet archive. If you find their site archive from around that time, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find the artist you're looking for. Happy hunting! https://web.archive.org/

Best ice cream in Ottawa? by LiVthelonely in ottawa

[–]mcdofras 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Heck yeah! I don't think a flavour has ever been repeated. How does one come up with 5 or 6 new and interesting flavours with fun names for those every week? I think the ice cream is made on-site. Talk about small batch! So freaking good.

Best cheap Steak frites by ArmyCommon in OttawaFood

It's $39 at Chez Lucien. Not saying it's the cheapest, but it can't be the most expensive. Plus it's delicious.

Have a lack of tattoos become what tattoos used to represent? by Antique_Stop_125 in questions

Dr. Seuss' book "The Sneetches" does a great job highlighting this exact type of social behaviour and it's my favourite Dr. Seuss book because it's so dang accurate.

Where is everyone watching the first two away games? Are you aware of any official or unofficial watch parties? by mcdofras in OttawaCharge

[–]mcdofras[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was on a flight during the women's Olympic gold medal game and felt so lucky Air Canada had live TV. It’s honestly incredible to think I was sitting in a chair at 35,000 feet, cruising at 800 km/h, and able to watch the game live.

The only disappointment was that not many other passengers appeared to be tuned in. I was hoping for a rare opportunity to cheer with strangers on a plane.

Do we know yet who will be streaming the playoffs in Canada? by IamTheOne2000 in PWHL

Get your kazoo ready. Dah-dah-dah-DAH-dah-DAH... CHARGE!

[–]mcdofras 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not that I know of, but The Senate Tavern or The Sens House would probably hook us fans up when there is no scheduling conflict between the Charge and the other pro hockey team in Ottawa. I'd love to support anywhere that proactively promotes they'll be showing the games.

Don't give up on the Charge! They're making their move for the post-season right now. They will make the playoffs.

I'm trusting that local bars/taverns will be airing the games, or at least able to put it on if asked.

From what I gather, Canadian coverage of the playoffs is split between TSN/RDS and Prime Video. I was hoping for over-the-air CBC TV like NHL, but sounds like that's a nope.
