Earlier this year (in The Before Time), Winnipeg’s Royal Canoe decided to embrace their city’s reputation as the coldest place on the planet, and played an outdoor show.
In January.
In Winnipeg.

And if that didn’t already sound bonkers enough, they decided this live show would be played on ice. Not like Disney On Ice, but played on ice, as in, every instrument the band played would be made out of ice, making it look like they were playing in the middle of the Fortress of Solitude.

Some of the results of the live show is not only going to be available as a live EP tomorrow, but they’ve also put together a documentary called Glacial which debutes TONIGHT (5p Pacific) on YouTube.

Check out the video for “Living A Lie” below!

Doing things a bit different today, with a special edition of Song of the Day...a Pistol Shrimps edition to be exact!

The documentary on the LA women's basketball team is having it's Vancouver premier tonight as part of the DOXA Documentary Film Festival, and I'm pretty darn excited.
The film was directed by Vancouver's own Brent Hodge - you might remember him from such films as: "A Brony Tale", "What Happens Next: The Dan Mangan Documentary", CBC's Said The Whale Documentary "Winning America", and most recently "I Am Chris Farley".

I asked Hodgee for a suggestion for today's SOTD, and turns out that one of the Pistol Shrimp players is a musician, Jesse Thomas. So below we've got the trailer for the movie, and her song "Fire" which happens to be featured in the film.

You can get your tickets to see the movie by clicking here - there are two screenings, but tonight's includes a Q & A with Brent Hodge afterward...though, NO HATERZ allowed.
