Monday’s Hinder, My Darkest Days and Jonas & the Massive Attraction show was awesome! It was great to see so many people come out to the rock show at the Cypress Centre. I had a blast!

One of my highlights was getting to meet Hinder for a 2nd time. I bought a bottle of Jager for them and they were cool enough to invite me onto their tour bus for shot after!

They even signed the bottle for me to take home! How cool is this??

I was really impressed by Jonas & the Massive Attraction. Those guys put on an AMAZING show! I really hope they can come back and rock The Hat again!

Here’s a pic of me and the guys from Jonas and the Massive Attraction

Remember that break-dancing gorilla at the Calgary Zoo? Check out the link below to see Zola shufflin’! So cute!

Check out the trailer for Jonah Hill’s new movie “The Sitter” hitting theatres in August. I think it looks hilarious!

Warning–this is the red band trailer…meaning it is NSFW!

The Saskatchewan Roughriders have had a tough season so far—currently sitting with a record of 1 and 4. What that means is that I’m not winning very many CFL Showdowns! If you’re not aware my co-host Poncho and I make a bet every week between my Riders and his Blue Bombers. Who ever loses has to do something embarrassing.

This week I got to wear this to work for losing last week’s bet:

I was supposed to wear acid washed jeans, but we couldn’t find any, so Poncho settled with this outfit instead. Lucky me. LOL.

Oh, well, my Rider Pride is still alive and well!

And here’s a pic a Rock 105.3 listener sent my way:

There’s still a lot of weeks left in the CFL season. Go Riders Go!
