Fucked Up

The Polaris Music Prize (Canada's equivalent to the Mercury Prize in the UK) was handed out tonight and Toronto band Fucked Up took home the prize for their album "The Chemistry of Common Life," with vocalist Damian Abraham accepting the award and then proceeding to take his shirt off and then land a wet one on the presenter. I would expect nothing less.

On another note, I will be heading over to Victoria for the Rifflandia Music Festival this weekend

and if you're in the area I encourage you to check it out. The festival has a ridiculously amazing offering again this year and you can still pick up a wristband for the weekend...it's not too late! Highlights include Tegan and Sara, Beach House, K-Os, The Pink Mountaintops and much much more. Just head over to the Rifflandia website for the lineup, ticket info, and more.
