The Spoons
Yes, I made it October 24th to the alumni concert at Centennial College and it was fun! The opening act was ok. But when The Spoons, it was all fun. They performed all there classic songs & some new joints.
The concert was fun & I enjoyed it. I had more fun after their performance. I knocked on the concealled window they were in & of in the spirit of me I gave a huge smile,wave & two thumbs up. After that I went to the VIP section to walk & eat, meet the hosts & get pics with them. I got a pic with the guitarist / vocalist lady which was really good. I got a pic with Humble & Fred. It was awesome to meet them all. Even talking to the keyboardist & drummer/frontman of the band /talking to them was cool.
I enjoyed it & plan to see more shows. It was a pleasure to be in the presence of them. All my pics, that I will repost it on my media page.

Fan Expo 2011
So as you can see I went to Fan Expo 2011. I had a enjoyable time. I did walk in circles a lot. LOL not noticing I did in the beginning. I went 2 days of the 4 days of the event. I should of went every single day. I have to say though. Next year I plan to make a better effort of it!
I would like to say. It was a little intense then what I go through on a normal basis with the musician side of things. Since it was my first year, I was very unprepared of what happens there. I spent walking aimlessly in different booths and check out the whole event. Next year which in fact I will go to the
Q & A's and then go get autographs and get pics. I will make a better effort to stay down there so I don't miss anything.
I had taken video but due to some copyright infrigment according to the Fan Expo people. You cannot see one of my video's that I had 8 minutes of. OMG! I could understand. So I guess I have to try to show you through my FB account. You can view one of my video's.

Remembrance Day 2000/2001
It was very excited to win something I love to do and get a pay check for it for one time.
It was for me something I thought I couldn't do but made it very close.
The Rememberance Day Poem I wrote:
It was more than decades ago
When the first bombs destroyed many nations.
It all seems so senseless
The death and destruction of God's creation.
Families watched helplessly
As men filed out the door
To preserve their nation's values
And all they stood for.
through all this, one thing remained.
Silence - it was everywhere.
The quiet anxiety of what lay ahead -
As cries of anguish and pain filled the Dominion.
The loss of life, the possibility of death -
While loved ones hoped for a peaceful reunion.
The crash of bombs and warplanes took many lives
These will never be replaced, but there is hope
That at least once a year, we can gather to reflect and remember
Canada's valiant - lost forever.
Through all this one thing remains.
Silence - it is everywhere.
It came again - in the land of the Maple Leaf
There was destruction and war and an air of grief.
Why such senselessness, why such hate
We must stand up for peace before it's too late.
There comes a time when every woman and man
Should take a stand against war - to stand up and fight
Not to bear arms to conquer or build to destroy.
Then and only then can things turn out right.
All through the ages, silence remained.
Ignoring the wars, the destruction and pain.
Don't let the silence live on - show that you care
So that one day we can hope for peace everywhere.

Amy Winehouse - Great talent dies at 27
My condolences to her family and family because for real Amy Winehouse was a true talent of words and I know that gets thrown out a lot. But even if I wasn't a HUGE FAN but a fan that respected music, she was on one of my respected song writers and artists I have on my list and that is pretty long. She inspired a deep and soulful pop/urban genre which is really ever seen these days with hard beats and upbeat tempos, she was a gem of one of those people that you can get you out of a dark place to relate to and can get you out of a terrible situation. Unfortunately for her she didn't a chance to get herself out of it. I know some people who were in a dark situation and later have come out of it because they knew that they couldn't go at that dark path and it wasn't worth it at the end of the day to make themselves better.
R.I.P. AMY WINEHOUSE

Nina Sky Night 2010
I went to introduce myself of who I was the lady who asked for the flyer by twitter and my gmail account and introduced myself by name. My guy friend who I brought that night to take two pictures. It was supposed to be one, but I wanted to be sure that they turned out great. That is all I wanted to get pics and enjoy the night of their performance.
Later that night say around one thirty-five and on ward they did a song interlude and Nicole was singing "This is fun" and then the music played on.
By the two am hour the ladies of Nina Sky performed a couple of songs like Beautiful People, Move Your Body by request, a tribute to The Eurthymictics "Sweet Dreams" sung by Natalie, and had a interlude after Move Your Body later into You Ain't Got It. During the time between Move Your Body and You Ain't Got It Nicole picked me up stage and got me to move the George Brown students; also during those songs Natalie passed me her microphone during that time. But I got to help out singing You Ain't Got It with Nicole and let me interlude with them with Natalie beside me cheering me on. I think I got the crowd going when being flat cause they were busy taping it and it took my energy and confidence with Nina Sky beside me had me forgetting that I was on stage and getting off the stage and thanking the ladies for inviting me and let me perform with them. I got a lot of stares and looks of people wondering who I was. Honestly that was FUN and if I had to do that again I would.
I appreciate this out of of anything and meeting certain people this is one of the things that tops everything I have done meeting famous people around 2004, 2006-2007.
By the end of the night after having a wonderful time at the club and leaving the club by 3am I saw the assistant event co-ordinator of George Brown college, Nicole, her girlfriend (i think) and maybe a bodyguard or a rep of Nina Sky leaving the club and heading into their car and I yelled out to Nicole and told her to have a wonderful night and thanks for everything again and the co-ordinator and I heard her say "You're welcome" and I think from a far say "thanks for ripping the mic with us and you're pretty good up on the stage up there with us" and them waving bye at each other/Nicole giving me the thumbs up and pointing at me. This whole experience was definitely the highlight of this whole week for me, even months I say cause I never experienced what it was like to get up and rep, even sing in front of a crowd with your favorite artist I never experienced something like that before. I never even have been on stage in front of audience but I guess when you are in the moment, you forget where you are when you get on stage and just feed off the energy of the crowd.
Sure pics and autographs I have done before but nothing like I experienced with Nina Sky that night have gotten me to experience what it feels like to be a fan and perform with the artist on stage.
Throwback Part 1: Paul Wall
I am so glad I got a picture with him cause he got swag but is cool, calm and collective Southern Grillz. Been awhile but most people would remember this video.

Shooting Star & Set U Free Performed by Keshia Chante - From a Fans Perspective
This is a quick post for Keshia Chante's Set U Free and the premier of Shooting Star from your newest Street Team Member of Keshia Chante's.
Enjoy.
Starring at this mirror
Looking at myself
Got me wondering
When this launch pad
Of happiness I am seeking for
Got me questioning
Did I take the right path
Cause you got me seeking you
Out from far away
You got me doing things
I thought I wouldn't be doing
Around the others
I'd call you up
And texting you up
Cause it seems that they've
Failed cause you'.re the teacher of a lesson
That I've been wanting to learning
I've been a secret admire
For the longest time
Wanting that valuable
Lessons that I won't be
Regretting cause their teaching isn't affective
Makes me want to reach you
All night, got me saying
Things I wanted to say all my life
I'm finding this the right time to seek you out
And I'd be lying
To myself if I never said it
But now you know it
Cause I feel like my heart is in it
The right time to say
That I wish you were mine
But we far away so we say it
Over the phone
Fause the distance between us
Makes me want to just appear
Cause this life
I'm leading
Ain't satisfying me
Although I made it look that way
I need you here and this other
Dude has got me pretending that I just
Wish you were here cause I
See he's tripping
That he knows he can't have me
Cause the chance was there
But he takes pictures
Wanting what he can't have
But he became nervous and I feel like that I got to move on
Cause it's just a friendship
And will always will be
Until it may to late
I'm looking for more than this friendship
Cause I want it to be more
And I think I found someone
Who's got my temperature peaking when it's lonley
He is the one I' m thinking of
Cause he's fast and efficient
And has got me excited once again
To live the life I'm leading
Cause he gets what I'm needing
This reflection I am starring at
Is happening so
Fast that I'm denying the fact
That you ain't going as as I like you to be
So every excuse for me to this man is
To dream of to be at envy of all the bloggers and fashionistas
To be part of the world I've been longing for to fit in
So I dream big
To be in their status quo
Just to give the need when other parts of me
Aren't fulfilled
This is where I feel life is fulfilling!

It is your fellow KC Ryder & Street Team of Keshia Chante MusicAddictJane or Jane whatever you want to call me.
I got some great news that Keshia Chante has already shared: On Much Music Countdown Set U Free has debuted on the charts as #28. Very excited. If you haven't seen the video. The video is Sexy and classy. Keshia Chante has grown up. I see the product placement Contiki and Mars or Nars make up. LOL! Anyways I love the video and everyone can agree that they love it too!
http://vimeo.com/keshiachante/setufree
This video I believe has brought Keshia Chante back to the industry. I am so glad I also got to hear the new single Shooting Star. I was there for New Music Live for her interview. It wasn't such a good day because of the Rain and the Much Music Awards just finished but I was there for the whole interview.
http://www.newmusiclive.ca/video/
Oh and to all the haters. Really... you don't even know her so bug off. Don't judge someone you haven't met.
It was awesome and still is. Congrats Keshia Chante and see you on the road. Love the new video and all your performances. I appreciate every show I have seen you at. You are just the kindest person I have ever met... see you soon on tour. Very appreciative that I can be a KC Ryder & street team member. I got more video and stuff coming soon.

Appearance & Campaign For Keshia Chante's Day & Night Album
Good evening this is your musicaddictjane representative and I am currently doing my 2011 music rounds. You may ask why? I do it for the fans and represent music everywhere. Curretnly making my rounds to see for the very first time Shawn Desman perform at the Bloor-Yorkville Festival. I have seen KC a lot in performance but I am interested to see in the rounds what she sounds like, cause so far it has been different to every event I have been to of hers. It never sounds the same but sounds pretty good.
I know that Keshia Chante is releasing her new album later this year called Night & Day after the original title got changed recently. To the KC Ryders we all know that a promo called "Test Drive" was released this year which is part of her Night aspect part of her album which is the R&B version of her CD. The Day album consists of Set U Free (video premiere offically on New Music Live - June 23rd) and Table Dancer which are my favorite songs.
Just to know I am on my way to see Keshia Chante on two dates for sure: Invite only for the opening of the Guess Flagship Store (June 16th - which is Keshia's Birthday) which starts at 7pm to 9pm (could go longer than that) and $5 donations go to Canfar. I already got my invite.
Also Father's Day is not just exciting to see Keshia Chante perform again which is the day of the Much Music Video Awards (possible stop by the Red Carpet may be... trying to win a wrist band this week) but my first time besides TV to see Shawn Desman perform. Very excited about that. The event is free for both their concerts at Bloor-Yorkville Festival.
I am on my way to schedule myself to seeing Keshia on June 23rd on New Music Live. I hope for a call back soon.... or else I am harassing them. LOL! hahahahaha. I know that she is going to doing something special there, so I plan to be there. Working around that. I know that she is premiering her new video for Set U Free that day, I plan not to miss that. I know the video is going to premier sooner on Vevo before hand.
Count me in there #KCRyders & Luvkeshiachante sites to be making my appearances there soon. Oh and the Shawn Desman fans too. I make sure you have something to check out. I met him in person once, but I am working on trying to get something special to rep all the fans there. I may ask Keshia a couple of things that day when I see her. I will make sure I will be fully awake to get all the events down pat.
See you all to a event near you... Keshia Chante wise and some other music icons I plan to be at if I can. Working hard for you.

Pepsi Throwback Pics Pt. 1- May 31st 2011
So it is I, Musicaddictjane bringing you a lot of pics and video soon of the whole Pepsi throwback event. Working on the video aspect. But for now it is just pictures.
I thank the good people *Shauna Simon* at Praxis Inc., Pepsi, Cassie Stuart, and of course Keshia Chante for inviting fans once again through a sold out event media invite sponsor again.
Yes the theme was 80's and The Spoons performed.
It was a amazing show and my older cousin for almost backing out on me after text convincing that it was too late for her to back out the last moment; which she didn't and later didn't regret, after having a long day between us. I had to do some important business thing I signed up for 2 hours before arriving.
Constantly checking my email, twitter and facebook. As well as networking with someone I recognized from the Contiki party Michelle and talking with her about what the heck we were wearing and meeting up later that day. After the messaging and wishing each other luck, I forgot it was time to bounce because I had to pick up my cousin at her house and it was almost a disaster on my end cause she was "tired" and said she didn't feel like coming... I had to like i said no backing out cause your name is on the guest list. A hour around 5:10 pm I pick her up. I know I was running late and all picking her outfit and whatnot...
After arriving there and doing the outfit pick it is almost 6pm. I don't panic because showing up to these events is a long drag and being in so many I thought, good thing I didn't show up early. During that time, traffic... don't like taking public transit cause that would have taken even more time, really. After the 6:15pm to 6:27pm we find a parking spot, I parked the car and then we started to walk.
Of course I never been to Revival so we had no idea where we were going and we finally noticed it after crossing the wrong side of the street but we were on the right side before; thank goodness GPS. OMG! So it is like 6:35 pm roughly and of course I didn't see the MC or the band at all at this place, just other Twitter members and people.
A few minutes later I see Keshia walk in a few minutes later behind us as me and my cousin are signing in. LOL. Of course I had turned around and talked to her and say HI, give her a hug and thanked her for being able to see her again and asked her later if I can get a picture later on (she agrees, I let her go on her way cause people are trying to talk to her and whatnot) and this time she was MCing, which gives MC hosts to mingle with the crowd. My cousin tells me wow, lucky me and says Keshia is really pretty. *awwwwwwww* I let her go on the way and I get myself a Pepsi of course with seeing free food being served as well as chips. We get settled in a few and I finally tap Ms. Chante if I can get more than one picture with her just in case you know if the other picture messes up. LOL @ me. As the night progresses Keshia hosts and talks with the crowd with Cassie Stewart about the Pepsi/Tweet Event and then the introduction with The Spoons around 7:10pm they perform a couple of their hits and a new song.
I thought they were great live for honestly a band I didn't hear of to be honest until I youtube them and thought one of their hits sound familiar. I was born in 84 so I kind of missed a little bit of them when they came out.
Later that night, it progressed to the best dressed portion for the guys and the girls. Seriously the guys really got competitive. yes @hawaiian guy... for breaking your glasses and scaring a little bit of Keshia... OMG! Funny but creepy moment of the night. Wow, seriously... The other two guys and best friends apparently got Keshia sweating dancing to Thriller and another song... Really had a fun night. Oh and it was really nice to meet Michelle with her Madonnna looking outfit. Nice stuff!
Another successful night. Love the whole 80s thing. Made me at the night go home and watch Take On Me by Aha.
After getting home. Yes, I got some people at the retro twitter event follow me including Pepsi. Hello to all those who now follow me via Twitter. What up!

February 2003 - (First of my Flow 93.5's Love Zone Poems)
So I went to find the binder of stuff I wrote poems I wrote and they are all in a binder. I discovered one of my I think 5 or 6 poems at the time for the station back in the day.
Greatful Love (You Make Me Whole) Written February 2003
Your love is like a unexplainable energy
That I can't deny
And hide my feelings
Towards you but emotionally shy
To tell you I write this rhyme
Because you bring out
The hidden side of me
That I try to burry hidden in me
Is a great feeling of sensual emotion
The many things I love about you
Because without you I wouldn't
Know what to do like a missing
Piece to make me the individual
Person I am today as a expressionist of complete
Emotion today you make me whole
Because I would feel empty
Of emotional rhymes without your help
You are that missing page I've been
Searching for like a secret admiration/crush
To fill the denial part of me
And I'm greatful for you always and forever

2003 Era: Vivian Green Chat Room
I was really glad to join this cause I think that even though this was a 5 page chat. I occupied about 3 pages and had 4 questions answered. I was really excited that hey, I got to talk to not just talk with Amerie at that time but Vivian Green because I thought her soulful voice from her debut album "A Love Story" was a soulful album of that time.
I can remember that I was tired by the end of it but I had to watch my show back then during this period. When Columbia Records had its finest artists at it's time I think.
I can remember the chat though and multi-tasking during this time. I wasn't at all expecting to get so many questions asked during this time, that shocked me as being part of a chat session since Sugar Jones with a combination of the Amerie replies. I think for me being this age, was where I discovered that music was my home and that things could happen when you make it happen. Loved it. See my pink highlighted parts through the attachments below where I asked questions and this was the start of Music Fan(atic) generation until this day partially.
Thanks Vivian Green. I love all your music still. Taking it back to my favorite song of this time.
