All the neighbours up on Ravenwood/Wildlark in the west end are talking about the damage a driver did on their street last night. According to the police report, an erratic driver behind the wheel of a truck at around 9:30 p.m. damaged up to 20 lawns, struck 2 vehicles, a light pole, and 2 utility poles. He also knocked down trees. Total damages are in the neighbourhood of $50,000. A 48-year-old man has been charged with Impaired Driving, Dangerous Operation and Fail to Remain. Thank goodness no one was injured.

Mashup, currently on display in the front room of Artspace, is a collab/co-mingle of art from two artists: Montreal artist Nadia Moss uses sculpture and drawing in a fun, creative way which plays out as a cross between street art and comic book art; and London, Ontario artist James Kirkpatrick uses interactivity as a basis in his sculpture. This is an excellent installation.
Both of these shows run until Friday, November 25th. That gives you a good two weeks to check it out. It's a fun look-see. Artspace is located at 378 Aylmer Street.

Saturday saw the 5th Annual Garage Rock Jubilee happen at the Pig's Ear Tavern. Thirteen bands took part, each taking 40 minute sets which began at 4 p.m. and went all the way to close. Presented by Bareknuckle Records, the event included sets by the likes of Hundred Year Champions, No Pussyfooting and Bumpin' Tacos. Muddy's Pit BBQ was on hand with tasty food for the rockin' crowd.
