I really miss BSS. It’s been years since I crushed hard on You Forgot It In People and I’m still not over it. I hope I never do. I also probably miss them because it’s been 3 years since they’ve put out a proper release, instead busying themselves with supporting the continual off-shooting side projects […]

Kevin Drew - Lucky Ones (George Vale)

Kevin Drew had a criminally overlooked album of 2007 called Spirit If…. Not sure why it didn’t catch on, to me it sounded like a roughed up Broken Social Scene, with less direction and more noise. Anyway, I liked the album and there were definitely some standout tracks among the bunch, this being one of them.
The video for ‘Lucky Ones’ is a documentary/performance piece, edited beautifully around a show that took place at Toronto’s Lee’s Palace. You’ll notice right away that Mr. Drew is a crazy man, when he set’s the stage by buying a round of shots for the entire crowd. Trouble with cops be damned; the shots happen, the show begins, and it looks like everyone is having a great time. Props to Kevin Drew for spreading around that indie rock money to the people, I can respect a man that buys me a drink.
