K’Naan at the Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival 2007 in Whistler
Hello Canada… and hockey fans from the United States… and Newfoundland….
I am in Whistler!
ThisCityRocks is up in Whistler this week at the Telus World Ski and Snowboard Festival 2007, minglin’ with the crowds, snappin’ some pics and shooting some HOT bands! If you live near by, you should head up here! And yes, it’s still snowing!
And just who has TCR interviewed in this (still snowing) winter wonderland, you ask? Well for one, Somali-Canadian hip-hop global success: K’Naan. His concert this past week-end was nothing short of inspiring and his music contagious, and he was simply lovely to sit down with and talk to. (Interview to be posted next month).
Yahoo! Canada is also live on location as one of the Festival’s new sponsors this year. You can’t miss the big purple tent at the bottom of the Gondola. They have set up a live blogspot and anyone can pop by and upload their pictures and videos from the action of the week. Check out what’s been uploaded from the first few days of the festival.
I will most certainly be trying to bring you more action from the festival via the blog and my flickr, so you can feeeeeel the music and smell the snow via the internets, alas, there’s a fresh cover of white butter and a stellar new snowboard calling my name!!
Hey, I saw this blog post on yahoo! Cool!
Sweet stuff, Megan! Keep up the wicked content.
