How The Ariana Grande Concert Attack Has Made Me Less Afraid

June 1, 2017 by Alexandria Durrell 1 Comment

I’m not really a helicopter parent, but I won’t deny being something akin to, say, a bumblebee parent—buzzing haphazardly about when my kids are spreading their own wings. I want to let go, I really do. Most of all, I want them to feel strong and independent, street smart and confident. I try not to … [Read more...]

Music Review – The Rascals: Once Upon a Dream

August 15, 2013 by Katya 3 Comments

Even before The Rascals: Once Upon a Dream starts, you know it's going to be different, because the ubiquitous voice you hear in a theatre that normally says you need to turn off your cell says this: “You may leave your cell phones on, take pictures, tweet them, Facebook them...in fact...do … [Read more...]

Review: Lady Gaga Performs in Toronto

Last night my husband was taking clients to Lady Gaga and I got to tag along.  I like her music and I find her persona intriguing, so I was keen to check her out and see what all the hype is about. The show was supposed to start at 8:30 so by 8:45 we were getting antsy and excited for it to … [Read more...]

This time I told “the guilt” where to go.

May 28, 2010 by Christine

Back in the fall, there was an assembly at the boys school and the cross country runners were presented with their ribbons.  Cam was one of them.  Once his name was called I could hear Cuyler in the crowd starting to cry and fuss.  I could hear him and through his jargon figured out … [Read more...]

Michael Jackson’s This Is It

November 9, 2009 by amreen

  Do I consider myself a hardcore Michael Jackson fan? No. But, he's part of who I am.  His music, his persona, his scandals, and his family are embedded in my childhood, my adolescence, my psyche. I know the words to most of his songs.   I wore a glitter glove to … [Read more...]

Coldplay does Toronto

People listen to music for countless reasons.  I listen to music to feel happy - uplifted even.  My favourite songs allow me, for a few minutes, to feel buoyant, free and capable of achieving the impossible. Coldplay played the Rogers Center in Toronto on July 30, and it was indeed … [Read more...]

Last Thursday night, I saw George Michael in concert at the Air Canada Center in Toronto.  It was amazing! Older, wiser and greyer, George is still gorgeous with a pristine voice like velvet.  He still has awesome dance moves and was all over the stage with boundless energy.  The show … [Read more...]

Singing, Dancing & A Little Love (Pride in the Name of, that is)

March 2, 2008 by Margot

So, I got a phone call from a friend yesterday inquiring if we wanted to join them for dinner & a movie.  As always, I'm game, so I called up our babysitter (Oh, how I love thee, let me count the ways...), & it was a date.  I figure I have to cram as many date nights in before baby … [Read more...]
