Two of our writers are going to this to review it for everyone, but here’s a preview for you. Don’t miss their first show of 2008! Ring in the New Year with great songs and great stories: join us at the Roundhouse on January 8th for the 57th Vancouver edition of Bluebird North: […]

After writing the last post I heard from a colleague that yesterday, the 27th, Kerrisdale had a similar accident, where an individual was hit by a travelling car, at an intersection. There has as yet been little media attention of this so, I urge everyone, to look into this and share the links. […]

This is not the real picture of the event, cuz I couldn’t have possible taken it — it was too tragic to take one. I was walking along Main St when, just about 20 feet before me at just around 5pm, an old Chevy pickup crushed a person who was crossing the street. […]

I’m sure y’all are all aware that my peeps at PhreshVibe and the new 4THeRcrd writers (under a new collective wing) are doing this sexy night not just for JarkTheSaint, but especially for All the kids (and single parents) in Vancouver this December.

The local boxing scene has been […]

Mikey Manville and I had a casual dialogue and, low and behold before we knew it, there was plenty of material for us to use for another informal interview, to let y’all know what he’s up to in the next little while. Besides the Manvills, of course — but still with their support. […]

Welcome to a new face for what came to be a mutinous little groups of writers at BeyondRobson. This is our most recent post for startup purposes only. But there are dozens of posts already archived. Play around with the interface and direct any and all questions to editors@4TheRcrd.com (or just leave a comment). […]

Many newcomers to Vancouver say that this city is an unfriendly place. That it’s hard to make friends here and that many people are cold to strangers.
With this in mind I am embarking on a mission: I will talk to strangers. Over the next few weeks (or maybe months) I will head out into this […]
