“The best part is that it bounced right back out of bounds, so he gets to do it again after the other kid stops crying.”

[concert] The Kooks, Montreal Canada

Checked out a little British rock show with the The Kooks and the Pigeon Detectives in Montreal, Canada… it was definitely better than this one but not quite as good as that one.  Here are a few photos and clips:

Use JiveTalk to Instant Message on a Blackberry

Wednesday, August 6th, 2008

BeeJive LogoIf you have a Blackberry and use Verizon Wireless, you are not allowed to download and install AOL Instant Messenger to your phone (see also: 20 Billion Text Messages x Pricing Increase to .20 per message). As a result, you’ll have to venture into 3rd party mobile application territory to get your chat on. There are several Instant Messaging applications available however Beejive.com’s JiveTalk seems to be the best choice with multiple platform and account support, a one time fee of $19 bucks, a clean interface:

Matt Costa, Battery Park in Burlington Vermont, July 31st 2008

This was the last show of the 2008 Burlington waterfront concert series.  We brought Toby with us (his 2nd concert) who barked like crazy during his favorite song which got him some attention and a shout out from Mr. Costa himself.

here are a couple Matt Costa video clips:

[concert] Coldplay, Montreal Quebec Canada

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Coldplay Concert, July 29th, 2008 Bell Centre Montreal, Canada

The Coldplay Show in Montreal was by far the best concert we’ve ever been to.

Reviews:

“The standing ovation started the moment the lights dropped, and didn’t let up until the end of the encore. Cheers were deafening and singalongs were omnipresent.”

“Sometimes we go to certain towns - in England, Wales, Germany or Australia - and people don’t sing along, so we get depressed,” Martin said. “So we come here, and everyone is going for it 100 per cent, and it makes us feel fantastic.” - Mycoldplay.com

Wells, Maine 2008

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Just returned from the annual family vacation to Wells, Maine.  It’s such a great way to get the whole family together.  This year’s trip to Maine only included 2 events from last year’s Top 5 List however we definitely had just as much fun!  Especially the late night surf session w/ my brothers (can you say “Shark Bait!”)

Below are a few shots:
