blogging and podcasting

Seems like the perfect thing to blog about, blogging itself. As you'll know I do a couple of radio shows on Coop Radio. I am trying to get some podcasts sorted for the shows.

I think the simplest but slowest way to do in terms of start up is to get a website up and running. I already have a website but it needs work. So my thinking is start from scratch and build it up again.

It's coming it's coming...

Last Call set list 30 Dec 09

It's the end of the year of 2009 as we know it and here's the set list for the last Last Call show of the year.

The Last Call crew is busy working on getting the shows online, but for now to wet your taste buds here's the latest set list.

Last Call plays every Wednesday at midnight, that's Tuesday into Wednesday on Vancouver Coop Radio, 102.7 FM or streaming live at coopradio.org

Want to know more about the show, drop me an email. All the best for 2010!

regards
Gary Jarvis

Liam Maher

It's rare for me to feel a sense of loss at hearing at the death of a celebrity but this is where Liam was different. He wasn't a celebrity. He just one of the lads and I remember some great times when I saw Flowered Up live, including their gig at Shoreditch Town Hall.

My friend Paul and I loved Flowered Up, "It's on you, Sonia!"

There is a brilliant article online (the link follows, cut and paste)

http://thequietus.com/articles/03031-liam-maher-of-flowered-up-remembered

I remember when Weekender came out. I had the vinyl copy and most of the serious techno fans weren't that impressed but I loved it. I loved the sample intro,

"Your barmy staying out all hours of the night" or words close to that,

and then Liam responds, "don't worry I ain't gonna turn into a fucking pumpkin am I!"

I just loved that.

And now I feel some nostalgia for it. But those were shitty days too. That horrible recession and not knowing where I was going in life....

I found my way.

Really sorry to hear about this. My thoughts go out to Liam's close friends and family.

Megaphone

If you didn't already know Vancouver has a street paper. That is a newspaper sold by vendors who are either homeless or who have in the past been homeless.

It's very much like the Big Issue model, made famous by the UK paper founded in part by John Bird.

I had the good fortune to do a work placement at the Big Issue some years ago when Matthew Collin was the editor and Gibby Zobel was one of the lead news writers. It was a great time. I already had experience advocating for the homeless having done street outreach work for the Simon Community in London.

Here in Vancouver, having worked at a night shelter for the homeless and also being a resident of Strathcona/Gastown/Downtown Eastside - call it what you want I'm pretty in tune to what's going on.

Reading Megaphone helps though a lot in that process. Only a street paper can do that. Grassroots journalism. If you are not already a subscriber I urge you to become one.

Megaphone not only contains information from people living on the street but also good solid articles.

You can't say fairer than that, can you!

Happy Christmas

Freezing # 3

Not the earlier start of previous Freezing entries but out on the bike trail before 8am to get to West Point Grey Library for 9am and a four hour shelving shift.

The Off Broadway bike trail with its view of the North Shore Mountains is breathtaking. It's a steady climb, also somewhat breathtaking.

The routine route although probably warmer was definitely more challenging. I had to stop take a breather close to the studios of JRFM and the Peak.

Kettle on for tea!

Freezing # 2

Timed my Gastown to BCIT cycle route today. Started out at 3.53am and arrived at the Broadcast Centre 42 minutes later.

That time is about my average. I think how much faster I could it with a road bike (racer) or at least some paniers. One thing is certain the bike is too small for me but the dinosaur, T Rex, to you continues to do the job.

A neighbour was up bright and early and there were several cars on the road this morning, full moon rising!

The alarm woke me from a dream, and I nearly reset it. Stood for a moment consequences dimly going through my dreamy head. I got dressed. Made two cheese, peanut butter and honey sandwiches on sour dough. One for breakfast, one for later. Just had a banana and now drinking water, coffee will have to wait.

It's currently -1. The clear condition continue today but there's increasing cloudiness and I guess we'll get rain by the weekend.

Freezing # 1

It's freezing out there.

Another awesome bike commute. Didn't waste time waiting for a bus that never comes this morning.

Started cycling from Powell Street and didn't stop until I got to BCIT in Burnaby, slowing down only at the intersections of Clark, Renfew, Boundary on Adanac.

Saved some time by turning south on Boundary and then south east on Douglas to Gilmore.

Kept ears warm with a sock wrapped tight round back of head beneath bike helmet. Donned ski gloves today. Tomorrow, extra pair of boxers to counteract a different kind of cold.

peace

Fog and biking

Main and Hastings at 3.52am - no bus. Started cycling.

BCIT campus 4.35! Oh yeah!

I'm so grateful for the full moon and dry conditions. It made cycling so easy. The cycling was easy but the cold, ouch. By the time I got to Nanaimo my ears were frozen. I took off my gloves and by the time I'd reached Windermere had transferred my gloves to my ears. My bike helmet holding them in place. I used my the stretch sleeves of my jacket to keep my hands relatively warm. I then noticed my feet were cold. Keep peddling!

It's an easy route.

criss cross from M & H to Union which becomes Adanac. Follow all the way to Gilmore and then downhill via Still Creek Drive.

Top Gear

Up before the birds on Monday morning for a show at Evolution1079.

I had set my alarm for 1.01. I woke before that having gone to bed at about 9.30 after making pancakes and banana bread.

Thankfully I had laid out all my stuff before going to bed, as I was definitely still disorientated. The banana bread helped.

I then rode my bike a few blocks to Hastings and Gore and waited for the nightbus. About a 15 minute wait in the balmy December night. Not cold at all. Well five layers probably helped. Also not raining.

The night bus came and I struggled to get my bike on the rack. A woman jumped off bus and helped me. Thanks again.

Got off at Gilmore and cycled downhill in top gear all the way to Gilmore and Still Creek Drive, before the slight climb over the highway towards BCIT.

Caroline Samarodin scared the hell out of me five minutes ago when she emerged from the secret bunker.

tune in at 5.30! www.evolution1079.com

The Hanes Valley

A friend and I hiked the Hanes Valley today. What an amazing experience. I have done quite a lot of hiking on the North Shore behind Grouse Mountain and more recently have got reacquainted with Lynn Creek Headwaters Regional Park.

Today we did the trail, 17km, that links the two. We took the gondola up Grouse Mtn and from there hiked towards Goat Mtn before taking the Hanes Valley turn and descending the chained section.
Not long after we arrived at the toughest part of the hike the turning for Hanes Valley and about three hours of scrambling including plenty of photo ops and food, and admiring the scenery.

Then it was back into the forest for quite a long hike. We were surprised at how long it took to reach Norvan Falls but from there picked up our pace and were really moving fast for the last two hours to the parking lot.

Awesome!
