Drake Adams & The Sticky Bandits - Stone

So much 'undiscovered' talent in New Brunswick. This is live from Wilser's Room.

Owen Steel - Old Man Lammes

Here's Owen, one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet. Great story singer.

The Daisy Anthesis - Rails

It's Monday. Labor Day Monday. And that can only mean one thing:

METAL! METAL!! METAL!!!

I posted a little blurb about seeing this St. John band a while back at The Capital, and they were awesome, easily one of the best metal bands I've ever seen live. I've said it a bunch of times, but let me re-iterate that screamo metal isn't my thing. It's unlikely I'll sit down and listen to their recorded stuff once a year, if that. Live though, I will happily check them out. They are true musicians and tremendous performers in person. Seriously, so see them and be entertained. I think they're actually just called Anthesis now, but frankly I like the original name better. Switch it back, fellas.

Dr. Adrian Park speaks on shale gas

This is a big issue in New Brunswick, and certainly a divisive one. On one hand, this would create lots of jobs and boost the economy. On the other, it has the potential to do irreversible damage to our environment. As Dr. Park explains this is unlikely and mostly preventable with strict regulations, but for me even the slightest possibility that things could go wrong is a risk not worth taking. In my opinion we need to look past fossil fuels as energy sources and invest in renewable, clean energy sources that we have the science to develop. Shale gas is a temporary solution to a problem that needs a long term solution. Nonetheless this is an interesting (albeit pretty boring) presentation and should shed some light on the process involved.

The Motorleague - You Wear Me Down

This is The Motorleague, from Moncton! They're pretty awesome and this is a pretty sweet little video they've put together. They're on tour right now so check them out if you ever get the chance. Just found out they're at The Capital on June 30th! Sweeeeet!

Nice job guys.
