Paul Machnau is an internationally visible, veteran skate Pro who proudly calls Vancouver home.

Thanks to all who came out to the “shopping free” event! Just over 110 people came out for the cause; muffins were served freshly baked, virgin shirley temples were enjoyed and shoppers of all ages spent a glorious Sunday afternoon at Box studios wit

Yesterday's Junos made me think of the Rascalz and how they helped get hip hop some more prime time exposure come Canadian music award season some Junos ago. Big ups Misfit, Red1, Kemo! httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUWpCuzm9Ho&fmt=18

Do you think you could be "the next Fred Herzog "? For those of you who are unfamiliar with the name, he is the legendary Vancouver photographer who documented our city's changing urban landscape throughout the late 1950's up until the late 1980's.

Our very own Dylan Doubt sent me a link to an incredible set of photos he shot of Will Oldham when he was in town playing the Vogue last week. Below is one of them, the rest are here and here .

I bumped into Maestro Fresh Wes on Sunday morning at The Artist Sanctuary for the Junos at The Loden Hotel . Y'all know him for "Let Your Backbone Slide" but he's since gone on to transition into acting, starring on TV shows like "The Line" on HBO .

Every once in awhile I like to troll the Canadian Design Resource site (AMAZING!!!) and pick out things that have to do with Vancouver and re-appropriate them here so you can enjoy them and hopefully be inspired to visit the C.D.R..

Got this from the folks at Color mag this morning: Skaters interested in entering the [Skate And Deploy] contest, there is a limited number of spots. The cost is $30.

Our next featured artist for The Proof is photographer Jeff Otto O-Brien, who's work was recently selected for VIA's Photo of The Week . He is part of the upcoming group show, The New Photographers , which opens this weekend at Gallery Atsui.

High Fiving Celebrities is a feature where we give high fives to random celebrities that we run into at the airport and in restaurants, stores, hotels, etc in Vancouver.
