The Grassy Knoll Under The Wooden Sky...

After a very close game of softball, Mr. Tyler Bancroft was kind enough to drive a few of us over to John Rogers Park in Vancouver, where The Wooden Sky was playing to a crowd perched on the hillside.

I saw these guys in Toronto a few years ago, but sitting watching the sun go down with 100 other people, kids on the swings, dogs and bikes everywhere while the band played, was pretty amazing.

And on top of that they were joined for a few songs by the glorious Debra Jean Creelman!

Here are a few of my shots:

Floating Just Offshore...on English Bay

The initial plan for the day was The Beach, to get relief from the heat...but when an invite comes along to float on/jump off/swim around/bbq & drink on a BOAT in English Bay, you drop everything and go...

Here are some photos I took with my cell phone... Yup. That was the only one I brought with me. (We managed to get 4 musicians, 2 photographers, an actress and a tv guy on the boat.):

A night of Debra Jean and Jon Rae.

Monday Night at the Biltmore! Debra-Jean Creelman was opening up for Jon Rae Fletcher so I moseyed on over to the east side of town.

Also playing that evening was Bruce Peninsula...they weren't my cup of tea for the most part, although some of the songs were interesting. I wasn't a fan of the Jesus songs though...memories of bible camp...ugh.

Here are a few shots from the show!
