BE THERE.....

....if you know what's good for you. Seriously though...Gastown is such a cool place. There are so many funky shops and tons of great restaurants & pubs to check out. The Water Street Cafe, 6 Acre and the Irish Heather are a few of my favorites....oh and Steamworks is great too.

What else are you doing on a Sunday afternoon in August? Going to Home Depot? Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that....maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond? I don't know....I don't know if you'll have enough time? Skip it and come check this out instead! It's your day off for goodness sake...come downtown for lunch and have a quick putter around the show. No need to worry about traffic, parking or drinking & driving because you can just hop on the skytrain and get off at Waterfront Station and you're almost right there. DO IT!!!

If you don't respond well to high pressure sales then try this....only cool people are allowed to come to Gastown (insert photo of Paris Hilton having the time of her life and over-played pop song here). You're cool right?

Our friend Leigh is part of this awesome Broadway burlesque dance troop called the Candy Girl Cabaret.

They are amazing and you should definitely make the time to come check them out one night soon!



It's a really classy show...no nudity. You can watch a preview here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=QewDV5vNJuY

They usually perform with Jessica Beach who is a really talented local singer. You can check out some of her stuff here: http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=35562604
