Last week was Canadian Music Weeeeeeeeeeeeeek! It was a great week to appreciate Canadian music and for Canadian talents to showcase their muzac and ish! One of the greatest radio stations Chum FM, hosted their second annual Fan Fest concert in honour of CMW. It was the 2nd annual Fan Fest. Chum FM knows how to host a partYYYY! There was free drinks for the fans and unlimited food like, sushi, burgers and fries, salmon on bread, chicken and chicken balls with honey inside and loads more!
The first performer and artist to come out was Karl Wolf who only sang one song and probably only hit AND not even original sound, AFRICA.
Other performers included my new fave girl LIGHTS! Lights lit up the stage as she sang her first hit Drive My Soul and a song she wrote in February cleverly titled Febuary AIR. She also sang songs coming out on her new album which is set to be released in the fall. She is so cute and tiny and polite........love her! What do Light and I have in common? As seen in the picture we both clearly like showing our bras.(lol not really)
Katy Perry who confirmed she's not Canadian but loves Canada, came out in her bangs bob air cute and hot shoes and sang most of her hits like Hot and Cold, Thinking of You and of course I kissed A Girl. Katy asked an audience fan if she wore her cherry chapstick and the girl said no. So Katy brought out a HUGE blow up cherry Lipstick and told some girls to KISS IT! HAAHHA........everyone was looking forward to Katy to kiss a Girl but I don't think she did. Another performer was the soulstress DIVINE BROWN......not her real name.............Divine showed her new music which sounded a lot ol' school 50' and 60's inspired blues, jazz r & b and rock and roll flavour. Divine sang her songs like Old Skool Love, Lay it on the Line and my favourite SUNGLASSES minus Nelly Furtado. I obviously had to dance around rockin' my sunglasses at nigh!
Other not so memorable but good acts included a few Canadian Idolers such as Eva Avila and some other Candian Idol girl who I forget but she was aight. More not memorable acts included Serena Ryder known for her song, weak in the knees. At ONLY 15!, SHILOU not TOMKATS kid, performed her song OPERATOR. She has a lil rock and roll ska punk old school no doubt flavour not obviously as GREAT as no doubt but the sound of music.
Bands included Chicago's Plain White T's. The ain't Canadian but oh well. They did their thing and sang their hit Hey THERE DELILAH.
However, the band most anticipated for the night was none other than OLP if you are musically deprived that stands for one of the greatest rock band in Canadian history, OUR LADY PEACE!
Even though Rain Maida had the flu, he said the fan's made him feel better. They are so awesome LIVE! OLP performed their greatest hits such as CLUMSY, SOMEWHERE OUT THERE and MORE. The fans wanted and encore but sadly they didn't come out again......eeeeeeeeesh.
I spotted My girl and last year's performer, the beautiful Elise Estrada with some of her entourage I love them. They are so cool. They kept asking me where I was going after to party? Guess they don't know where to party in T.O. Some guy thought I was famous so he took a pic of Elise and I. Who knows where that pic is now. Also, stay tuned for Elise Estrada's new video POISON from her new album cuz while Katy Perry was performing I KISSED A GIRL, her boy told me that even Elise kissed a girl in her new video. WOW Elise...experimenting r we? I ain't ever kissing no girl. I'll stick to kissing boys, thank you very much.
A special surrrrrrrrrrrrprise guest was GENE fukin' SIMMONS! Gene was in town for Canadian music week cuz he's starting his own label for Canadian artists. Let me tell you something, I asked Gene for a picture and his people were nice they let me have it with him......he's not egotistical AT ALL. Nevertheless, I did not want to be kicked out so I left after my picture was taken even though no one told me to leave. I was chillin and walkin around and noticed that Gene Simmons was STILL hanging out in the V.I.P section.............sooooooooooooo............I just walked by him not even to talk to him I wanted to see who else was chillin in the V.I.P section I was walking by Gene Simmons...........rock star grabbed my hand, was trying to talk to him and I didn't wanna be rude.I was just shocked he grabbed MY HAND............so I was like 'you enjoying the show?' You having a great time?' He's like 'yah'. He seemed to wanna talk some more and than..........wait.............never KISS and tell hehehehhehhee
