"Stay happy and you'll be perfectly fine" - Jack Norris

south-west vancouver island

on thursday at 630 pm, alas, nearly flat at our rivermouth point, but a new swell taking force, in choppy, long, small, but forceful and energetic lines – i arrived too late for an ordinary outing, and in near darkness walked down our cobbled runway, exposed under a very low tide – top conditions prevail in general at this point, particularly further up the straits – please stay tuned……. -**********- with epic songs like “we used to wait”, the arcade fire are not, overtaking coldplay, just making their own place among the very top tier of groups worldwide – other excellent new singles: hollerado’s 2d, americanarama, and a new group for me, middle class rut, new low – & yay, my chemical romance are back with na na na – but the most spellbinding this minute is probably still mumford & sons – the cave – with broken bells ‘ghost inside’ a close 2d (mr. james mercer’s entry in the 4th verse is breathtaking) – and the xx – crystalized-, never fails – and tegan & sara have a very strong rock single, i think called hell – the line-up at the christmas special by www.1077the.com is astonishing – jimmy eat world, cake, black keys, broken bells & temper trap !! twitter mercuryloge \,,/
