Play the Nintendo 3DS on Granville




Nintendo has a cool booth set up by Sears on the Georgia side to promote the release of the Nintendo 3DS. You can try it out to see if you like it and just completely muddle the gamer stereotype by playing video games outside while you doing so. Win-win.

Attention Gleeks!

Every wish you could break out in song and dance without being awkwardly stared at? Well here's your chance to shake your thang just like the cast of Glee! Tom Lee Music is offering a Glee Camp with ultra modern singing and dancing choirs. There are Teen Glee Camps (ages 14-19) and Adult Glee Camps (ages 20+) as well. Even if you can't sing you can still sign up and Gleek out since there's no experience necessary. Register soon though, the Spring Glee starts on April 7. You don't wanna miss out on this!

Mother Mother Back In Town!

Vancouver-based band Mother Mother is back in town for two shows on May 4 and May 5. The show on the 5th at Commodore is sold out, but the May 4th show at the Vogue Theatre (918 Granville Street) still has some tickets left. Get your tickets here.


Mother Mother is one of my favourite bands and they just played a sold-out show at the Canadian Music Fest in Toronto. You can check out the title single from their last album "O My Heart" below.




Their new album, "Eureka", released worldwide yesterday, and info is on the Mother Mother website. Tweet us and let us know what you think.

adidas ObyO x Jeremy Scott Release Today

The first drop of adidas Originals by Originals x Jeremy Scott collection at the adidas Originals store (848 Granville Street) released this morning at 10 am. It has just been a few hours, but they have limited quantity and high demand, so no holds today.



The Teddy Bear shoe from the collection is just epic, and they made a special note that there is an extremely limited quantities of this sneaker and sizes start at Men's US 6.5. Not everybody is going to love the design, but I like it for its sheer uniqueness. Maybe Lil Wayne is cut from the same cloth as he rocked the sneakers last New Year's Eve.
