You don’t have to like him…

May 9th, 2013

…but you have to admit, Thomas Mulcair’s joke was hilarious and probably above 99% of the other politician’s heads.

I’m a fan

May 8th, 2013

I’ve always been a fan of Robin Williams. Whether he is in a serious role, dark role, Jumanji, or obviously a comedy role, he is a great actor. His stand up isn’t as awesome as it was when he was coked out, but then again, the best Rock N’ Roll was written when stoned or drunk.

Robin Williams has out done himself this time with one simple tweet!

More QOTSA

May 6th, 2013

June 4 is an awesome day.

June 4th, 2013 is made even better because that is the day the new Queens Of The Stone Age album “…Like Clockwork” comes out.

The First single from the album “My God Is The Sun” is a perfect example of the desert stoner rock the band has made fmaous.

Just today the band released a brand new song (actually a 3 minute snippet), along with a video, called “I Appear Missing.”

That moment you realize you’ve really screwed up

May 1st, 2013

I’m sure we’ve all made the mistake of blowing a little more money than we’ve expected at the fair. I know I have. As a kid I dropped a lot of money just to try and win a framed picture of a girl in short jean shorts and a skimpy top. I won it, but I also didn’t eat supper!

At least I was 13 when I learned this valuable lesson.

This fella in the story is 30 and claims to have dropped $2,600 trying to win an X-Box Kinect and instead, all he got was this lousy dread locked banana!

Shaping up to be a solid summer of shows

April 29th, 2013

I don’t think anyone can complain that there is a shortage of concerts coming to the Queen City this summer.

I think this weekend is the kickoff to what is going to be an awesome few months. Sure it’s in Moose Jaw, but that’s only a quick 35 and a half minutes away. of course, I’m talking about Motley Crue along with Big Wreck. Get your tickets here!

Now this one isn’t a concert per-say, but it always a great time going to watch WWE live. The Smack Down roster comes to Regina and The Brandt Centre on May 25th. It’s great entertainment for the whole family, and a cheap night out too, check out tickets for it here!

We announced this one a while ago and it is sure to sell out. It’s a show I’ve never seen and am beyond stoked for. Kiss and Shinedown will be in Regina on Tuesday July 16. Sure it’s only a couple days after Craven, but what better way to cure your Hillbilly Blues than with some Rock N’ Roll! Tickets are here! They might charge a bit more for tickets, but you have to remember the Brandt Centre is smaller than most arenas and which is a bonus for you, because that way you can be that much closer! Plus I hear the price is worth it.

McCartney tickets went on sale this morning, you might be lucky enough to get tickets for that one here!

The one that really matters to me the most was just announced this morning with Chad and Ballsy. THE WOLF is very proud to present Alice in Chains with Chevelle and Monster Truck at The Brandt Centre, Saturday July 6. Tickets go on sale for this one Friday morning at 10 here! Unless you’re a Licence To Rock member, then you can get in on the pre-sale that starts at 10am for 12 hours on Thursday. Sign up here!

There are rumours of a few other shows still to come this summer, which, if they happen, 2013 will be the best year for concerts this city has ever seen!

Do you travel a lot for work?

April 22nd, 2013

If you’re married and faithful, chances are your sex life is kind of weak if you travel a lot for work. Guess the same thing could be said for anyone in a long distance relationship.

Well the fine humans at Durex have invented vibrating underwear that can be controlled with an app.

Yes, there is an app for that.

So if you’re looking to get frisky with you’re partner while away from them, this is exactly how to do it!

Now, these gotch aren’t available yet, but the video shows how the gotch and app work together to allow someone to stimulate their partner remotely from across the world!

Crazy, Crazy week

April 15th, 2013

If you’ve been under a rock or held up in your parent’s basement without any connection to the media then you wouldn’t know that The Junos will be in Regina this coming Sunday.

There is going to be so much to do and see all week. I thought about writing about each one, but that seemed like a lot of work, plus you’d get even more bored of reading my blog.

So instead, you should just click HERE to see the full list of events organized by the local committee. They’ve put in a lot of hours to make this a successful event, so make sure you get out and check out everything they’ve worked hard to make happen for you!

Now, click HERE to see the list of the big events that happen each year in each city!

There is one major event that happens each and every year in every city that should be more than excited to be taking in. JUNOFEST!

I know ticket sales for this have been a little slower than they were expecting and I also know that the event sold out a week ahead of when The Junos were in Saskatoon in 2007. With a lineup this good, I have no idea how it’s not sold out yet.

Now to the point of this blog. You are absolutely lame Regina. A major event is coming to your city and you aren’t even getting out to support it.

Is it because you’re sick of the weather? Guess, what? So is everyone else.

Is it because it has nothing to do with The Saskatchewan Roughriders? I think so.

This city is known for not getting out and supporting events unless the Riders have anything to do with it. That’s sad. I’m glad you are so passionate about something, but there is more out there to experience than just football. this is a once in a lifetime event for the city as it will never return. especially when people aren’t going to be out supporting it.

Junofest tickets are $30 for 2 nights of great bands. Over 100 great local and national bands in-fact. There are going  big names on stage and there are going to be big names in the crowd standing shoulder to shoulder with everyone else.

I know exactly what is going to happen. you are going to hear a lot of people next week saying they wish they heard more about what was happening. There is lots of promotion happening with this. There is lots of people talking about this, maybe you;re just not listening close enough.

It’s time for you, Regina, to get out and experience more than just Mosaic Stadium.

Free Tattoo anyone?

April 8th, 2013

Tattoo’s a pretty awesome right?!

Remember that one time you got that deadly tattoo on your leg of nail?

You don’t?

Wait a second, that was me!

Here’s what happened. I was working as part of the street team for a radio station in Edmonton. One day we were asked if we could head out to a little Independent rock festival in the middle of a field in a small town outside of Red Deer. it was great, there was a bunch of bands I hadn’t heard of and ones that I was friends with.

While there, I figured it would be a good idea to get drunk because I made my way to the festival with another person on the street team and they were willing to drive the hour and a half back to Edmonton.

After a couple of hours of consuming plenty of booze I noticed a trailer that was set up by all the food vendors. I decided to make my way over to said trailer and that’s when people were getting tattooed! What goes better with Rock N’ Roll than tattoo’s, right?

Well, in my drunken mind I thought a nail would look awesome. So I paid the man $20 and got nailed! hahaha get it? it’s funny because it sound like…wait a second, that’s not funny at all! I paid him $20 and tattooed a nail on me.

I thought it looked great when I got back to Edmonton, I thought it looked okay the next day, but 10 years later, I don’t think it looks okay at all. Part of me wants to keep it because of the story (Which is very censored) but most of me wants to incorporate it in to a brutal Zombie scene. Or, maybe just cover it up all together!

Well, let’s face it, tattoo’s aren’t cheap. They cost even more when you get a bad one and have to either have it fixed or have it covered up completely.

That’s why The Wolf is teaming up The Pile O’ Bones Tattoo convention and The Gaslight Tattoo Parlour to help you save money and cover up an old mistake! Just head HERE and enter to win a $500 cover-up tattoo credit!
