Creating New Habits

Alright it's been ages, again, since I wrote the last time.
I will just ignore everything that has happen since before April, I can no longer remember, Something about beer I believe.

Anyway, first days in April a AM/TR celebrity showed up in Vancouver and of course I went and meet him.
Seraphim the flying piggy, Is an awesome guy from Montreal who is easy to have a laugh with. Anyway he showed up here and we meet the first day at the Aquarium to see what this tourist trap has to offer, I brought my camera but it gave in pretty soon.



And I even had the luck to run into a few Ibises of Doom


Anyway, the next evening we went on some Shenanigans downtown with opening food at the infamous "El Furniture Warehouse". After that we went to the main act of the evening, Yuk Yuks, the local stand up comedy club to have us a few good laughs along with a couple of beers. Main comedian was Auggie Smith and he talked about all kinds of controversial stuff such as this. And no he isn't very liberal any longer.
We continued the evening on a quest of great importance, to find the best beer in Vancouver. It took us a while but by the end of the night fairly hammered we discovered it, the great.... HOPGOBLIN, greatest beer in vancouver. If you come here, find it, it's worth it.

Working the next day was... interesting, I don't suffer from hangovers, but eating before work was a challange.

Any way 2 days later we meet up again for a beer before he flied back to Montreal.

The next week I went to my second concert here in Vancouver, this time it wasn't in GM Place but in Thunderbird Arena over at UBC. However having two arenas right next to each other called Thunderbird is confusing and I ended up getting lost before the show since I walked to Thunderbird Stadium instead of the arena, they are about a mile apart and it started raining, and then there was the line up, half an hour in a line up to get in while its raining lightly isn't as funny as ppl might belive. Good thing there was good music around.

The Opening acts were Hey Monday, Metro Station and All Time Low and although I had never heard of them before I came to appriciate Hey Monday and All Time Low, the make som really good music.



I don't know if you guys can see it but yes, Peter Wentz is in the Picture together with the rest of Hey Monday. They kept on making appearances with the opening acts, pretty cool and a good way to keep the crowd on edge.



I was fighting the smoke and the distance with my camera to get at least some good pictures but alas I didn't get very many good ones at all. So have you guys figured it out yet? Who the main band was.

It was Fall Out Boys.


 
Here they are with the singer of Hey Monday Cassadee Pope.



Later that night after catching 2 buses to get back to downtown to meet up with a couple of friends, quite a few beers were had even though it was late.



The week after that I was told by a little bird about a Swedish dance evening here in Vancouver, and of course I managed to forget the camera so there are no evidences of that evening but it was fun. We danced Bugg, Foxtrot and had some Janssons Temptation. And best of all, all the swenglish going around making every second sentence incomprehensible for anyone but a real swede, it was hilarious.

So there you have it, my April, I am spending my last weekend in Vancouver this weekend, and apparently people are planing.

Whats next you ask, well a bus south and then around this continent before we try the airlines across the Atlantic Ocean again. But more about that later. I promise I'll try to keep it updated on the road.
