On the National Hum show, I'm chatting about a special edition of Hip-Hop Karaoke in Toronto this Friday and LOLAFest in London, ON, which takes place this week. And I have a pair of tickets to LOLA's Jamie Lidell/Zeus show this Thursday September 16 to offer one of you bloggers too.
HHK's doing a special "competition edition" of their monthly series featuring guest judges like Das Efx, Michie Mee, and Master T among others. It sounds sweet! If I was feeling better I might head down there myself to show them what I got. Which is sinusitis/bronchitis. That's what I got. It's bad timing for me because LOLA looks stellar in London this year--one of the most impressive programs in this mostly free, multidisciplinary visual art and music fest. I wanna send one of you to this Zeus/Jamie Lidell bill so, if you're keen to go, please listen to win.
Any plans to check out LOLA or Hip-Hop Karaoke this week? I do have a pair of tickets to LOLA's Jamie Lidell/Zeus show to give away to the first blogger to answer my on-air question. That could be you! Or you could win on behalf of a friend who lives close to London! If this ends up being you, please e-mail vish_khanna [at] cbcradio3.com with "I Heart the Kinks" in the subject line, and your blog moniker in your message.
