The Feast of St. Alphonsus Liguori is August 1st, and members of the St. Alphonsa Syro-Malabar Catholic Forane Church in the west Edmonton Parkview neighbourhood celebrated on July 30th. The celebrations included a walk around the Parkview school and playground. The drumming could be heard for blocks and there were at least 1,000 participants.

Sometimes I film protests, and sometimes I film cool, hyperlocal community events: the grand opening of the beach volleyball "sandbox" and ice hockey rink today in Parkview.

Another place where you can find my CDs is ch. cafeteria (14802 Stony Plain Road). I just dropped off some copies of "Corners" earlier this week, and there are still a few copies of "The Crow" on their shelves, which feature lots of cool things from local makers.

West end fans! The Crow is now available at Ch.Cafeteria on 149 Street and Stony Plain Road! And you know that some of my songs are very sad, so they pair perfectly with chocolate to help boost your mood!
