Hey People,

While you guys wait until I sift though the 700+ stage pics I took @ Light The Night here are some of the after party pics.

I'm gonna leave a detailed write up of the show till a bit later but anyone who was there can vouch when I say it was their sickest show yet!

Click here for the the album on flickr!

Whoa is me / Jump Ship now available on iTunes

So this has been out for a while but with all the craziness recently I kinda forgot to post it up. Also what better way to get ready for Light the Night @ Sound Academy this Friday by checking out some new tunes.

Anyway, here's Down With Webster's latest single Whoa Is Me. It also comes with another great tune called Jump Ship.

Click here to download from iTunes!

Enjoy.

As I don't get to update this blog enough, I've decided to bring in some hardcore fans of Down With Webster to help fill the gaps. Team DWW is a collection of 3 girls from Toronto who love Down With Webster who know way more than I do about what's new and are always front row at every concert.

We look forward to some cool DWW related content coming up. In the meantime make sure to check out what their up to on twitter @Team_DWW and keep checking back for their posts.

Welcome aboard Team DWW!

This just popped up on the Much Music website a little while ago, footage of last nights crazy performance by Down With Webster. Unfortunately they won't let me embed it so you going to have to go check out their link right here: http://www.muchmusic.com/artists/2281/down-with-webster/videos/

Their performance was pretty epic! Fire works on cue to Pats guitar... pretty bauce if you ask me. Kinda sucked that you couldn't really hear Buck throughout the song but I dunno if that was just the TV feed or what. People who were actually there will have to get back to me and let me know if they could hear everything. The boys killed it as usual though. Definitely a good look for DWW. If you keep watching after there is a bunch of pre-MMVA footage and interviews with Cam, Buck and Ty. Check it out.

In other good/bad news, Ticketmaster is now sold out of Light The Night tickets! I haven't checked the other stores but they are prolly all sold out too. Sucks if you waited but hey... you can always buy my press pass... bidding starts at $2000 ...totally kidding, wouldn't miss this one guys :p

Who knows, if you're in the front row you'll prolly see me snapping some shots.

See ya there!

So, I just picked up Drake's new album 'Thank Me Later' and it's fire just as I had expected. I had heard most of the leaks since my second home is datpiff.com so i wasn't surprised when only 3 of the songs were new to me. It's just nice to have a quality copy that's properly mastered that sounds amazing on my system and not to mention supporting your own.

Watching Drake come up over the years is as though I've been waiting for 5 years just to pay for an album from him since I haven't been able to support the kid by going to a show or whatever. Either way, the albums been on repeat since I got it yesterday morning.

I love Over, although I've played it out for myself since i first heard it. Miss me is another great tune and Swizz on Fancy is pretty sick too. Nails done, hair done, everything BIG. The only tune I'm not feeling is Karaoke but other than that amazing album front to back.

I've heard tons of other tunes that didn't make the album and I'm wondering why. This tune definitely should have been on there.

<rant>

Anyway, Drizzy has been catchin a lot of heat from the haters regarding the hype for this album. I'm hearing a lot of, "...he just isn't the greatest lyrisist..." and "hes just a rich jewish kid from toronto that thinks hes hard as f*ck...".

One word... Listen!

To all the haters who don't know what they are talking about, take some time and actually listen to a few tracks. I've listened to almost every tune his put out and no where do you hear him talking all hard, claiming hes a gangster... In fact you'll notice the opposite. As for the hate on his lyricism... y'all are just ignorant! Drake's flow is beyond ill and compared to whats out there right now... shit... hes right up there with the favs like Jay Z, Lil Wayne, etc, etc

</rant>

Anyway, go pick up the album if you haven't already. Great tunes, support your own... not much more to say but...

Peace

Wear White!

This month will be a good one for Torontonian D Dub fans. About 5 days after a nationally brodcast live performance @ the Much Music Video awards, Down With Webster will be throwing a jam @ the Sound Academy June 25th, 2010.

DWW and Sound Academy go together like ice cream and fat kids and in the last two shows  that they have been here they have torn the effing place down. Something about the atmosphere at Sound Academy... huge stage, nice big pit for me to take pictures and get hit by crowd surfers in, great sound and lighting, huge capacity... just plain sickkk.

Anyway, we still have no word if there will be anyone cool opening for them or if they'll be releasing any new tunes but I'll keep you posted as soon as I know.

Recently nominated for two MMVA's, Favorite New Group & Best Pop Video, Down With Webster is set to perform at this years MMVA's! This is a pretty big achievement for the boys of DWW as they will have just returned from their 40 day tour across the states with Cute Is What We Aim For.

I'm definitely looking forward to a serious live performance... it's what they do best! Get ready for about 4000 screaming girls waiting in line at Much Music the day (and probably night before) they give out wristbands (June 12th btw )

Other performances include Adam Lambert, Ke$ha, Marianas Trench and Miley Cyrus (who will also be co-hosting).

Should be a good show! Stay tuned for more information on Down With Websters next performance at the Sound Academy too!

I almost forgot... Go to http://mmva.muchmusic.com/urfave-video/ and vote for Down With Webster!!! DO IT!
