Events and Entertainment

This Saturday and Sunday, Portobello West Market is having their spring market. Full of local designers and their wares, the market is located in one of the finest buildings in the city (Rocky Mountaineer Station).

Brian Mendoza is one of the most talented and stylish people I know, and he is also one of the designers of wings & horns - one of Canada's leading fashion menswear and footwear lines.

Tonight we set up a newly purchased, used drum kit in our garage....

Vancouver's own YSP!WSD! are playing the Biltmore on March 28th, part of the Juno Fest celebrations. You should check them, cause I'm sure they'll be dropping lots of new tunes, and also, they're hella good!

I've seen this a couple times when I've come into Vancouver. Does this happen in other cities? Climbing down the side of a building with very little holding you up seems pretty crazy. Guess you can't be scared of heights.

We just launched our new EVENTS CALENDAR and plan to make it your one-stop shop for things happening in the city. See how empty this thing is? Help us fill it up by sending your event info to events@vancouverisawesome.com .

About this time last year, me and Jeff Choy were watching the Canucks lose their way out of playoff contention. It was raining, people were glum, it was a disappointing feeling. Spring's not quite the same if the 'Nucks aren't in the playoffs.
