Fan Expo 2011

Hello Everyone,
  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.

Aaliyah Dedication from Keshia Chante


Hello Everyone,
I would just like to say I have been a very dedicated Aaliyah fan since the beginning of her career and seen a lot of Aaliyah covers done but not as impressive I have than Keshia Chante. (Not just cause I am a Keshia Chante fan and ryder) but this caught my attention when I saw a lot of pointing out that even the Aaliyah fans were loving it too!

Hello Everyone,

Remembrance Day 2000/2001

I entered a contest for the Royal Canadian Legion back in 2000 for their Senior Essay/Poem Category and locally I won nationally in Ontario January 13th for Branch 13 in Scarborough while I was still in high school. All across Canada I won 2nd place. Just missed being the top to go to Ottawa and be part of the Rememberance Day for a year later November 2011.

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

So I just got home a few minutes ago and went on my twitter, only to find out that Amy Winehouse was found dead at her apartment at the age of 27. Such a great talent wasted. She is year older than me and I cannot believe she died too soon. I mean I never met her or seen her performance, what a shame on me because that was one of the things to do on my list. I am kind of not shocked though because she did spend a lot of time in rehab. If she, only realized that she was talented and not spend time drinking and on drugs she could been in the studio and making a new album, because I think she made some real great albums that she came out with. Her voice will haunt us and her music will last as the classic artists that died of tragedy too soon before making themselves great they died with a short legacy.

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
