Damage And Joy With Jesus And Mary Chain

jesus and mary chain damage and joy tour at vogue vancouver
I like this new Jesus and Mary Chain tour schedule. It was only a couple of years ago that Jesus and Mary Chain came to Vancouver for their Psychocandy 30th Anniversary tour. Before that, it was 1992. (!) Although, that’s only Vancouver. Jesus and Mary Chain has been touring regularly since 2012. Before that it was 2007-2008, and before that it was in 1998.

Suffice it to say, anytime I can see Jesus and Mary Chain perform, I’ll take it.

2016: A Retrospective

2016 retrospective
Every year it’s the same old feeling, same old blur. How did the year pass by so quickly? There seems to be no putting on the brakes of this full-steam ahead train car.

Although the year started out as sad and shocking (I’m still feeling gutted about David Bowie), 2016 treated me really well. It was certainly a fab year of travel! (one of my trips being on the dime of my work – not too shabby!)
