big up my own self

New Forms Festival (NFF 10) is happening again in Vancouver. I have a solo minimal electro project called RESORTS. Sam plays EWI with me sometimes, and it's very different from Brass. You can check out our public debut next Friday, Sept. 10th at the W2 space, which is part of the new Woodwards building complex.

We have no myspace or any songs available online, so you must come to see the live act to hear the tunez.

start making sense

First of all Kickstarter rulz. Secondly the Pirate Bay story is one that deserves a proper documentary. Check out the trailer below.

Justin and Tim are two really nice and talented guys who run Stedfast Media. They shot this footage of us playing a new, untitled song at Hillside last weekend. Thanks so much dudes.

PETER BRAH + MTL + QC >> Toronto tonight

Woke up today to an incredible breakfast in Peterborough made by our couch-surf host Stephanie. Our show last night at the Red Dog had been booked last minute as a result of the Ottawa hoopla, but was one of my favorites this year. An intimate audience pulled a bunch of couches in front of the stage and we turned amps down for quiet one before what should be much more of a party at the Garrison tonight. Very special thanks to Ryan for pulling through at the last minute, and to Dave for sound.

Look at these friendly locals!

And some shots of the past week...

Hillside:

holy fuck killing it.

Quebec City:

pre-show tourism with shapes + sizes

Coincidentally our good friend Chris Wang from LOVE DANCING was in Montreal while we were. He came up and DJ'd the QC show with Braids & Shapes & Sizes. Super fun night. We even saw a FREE Cirque Du Soleil show beneath a highway underpass. Thanks to J-C and Le Cercle for hosting us.

Thank you Hillside! Apologies Ottawa.

Hillside show, originally uploaded by icepackbackpack.

We had an incredible show at Hillside fest last night. Was about 30 degrees in the Island stage tent, John took this shot somewhere near the end of the set. Such a friendly festival, beautiful grounds, and lots of happy people. A very nice way to start off on a tour.

OTTAWA, we are very sorry that we are not playing in your city this time around. Unfortunately, due to some very hapless and petty nightclub promoters in your city, we got panned and lost our original show and then another backup.

If you take issue with this, email us directly and we will tell you who to complain to: these megalomaniac douchbags who prevented us from playing to you.

Till MTL monday.
