Recently I was asked on Facebook, by a US based Band, about getting their Band booked to play in Toronto.
If one Band was curious about playing in Toronto, there might be others. I’m not a Booking Agent, but hope that this post might be of help to those who would like to book a Musician or a Band to play at a Toronto concert venue. Continue reading →
“Never give up on your Dreams” was the message I recently shared with a Musician, who’s band was taking a so called Hiatus. In other words they were going to pack it in. Continue reading →
The StandStills is a two person band, yet there is nothing missing in their sound. This dynamic rock’n duo consists of Renée Couture and Jonny Fox. Continue reading →
We were stoked to get an invite to the eOne Music Canada party. “The Wild!” was one of the bands which were going play there. They hail from British Columbia and it was a great opportunity to see and hear this band. Continue reading →
This morning I happened across an amazing time-lapse video by Photog Aaron Keigher. It is called “Move“. This video took tons of works to complete. It also features a superb sound track. Extraordinarly Creative work by Aaron Keigher.

Queen performing in Toronto. Copyright (C) Vincent Banial
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen is the top-selling song of all time. It was also the first single released from Queen’s then new album titled “A Night at the Opera”.
When it was released no one was sure if Radio Stations would ever play it, since it was a tad over 6 minutes long.
I was lucky to have seen Queen perform live. Memorable performance. That was the best concert that I have ever been to. I had shot that concert on slide film using a Nikon F2, with a legendary (and huge) 50-300mm f4 Nikkor zoom lens.
The BBC in Britain put together a great documentary about the making of Bohemian Rhapsody. It is full of interesting insights. The progrock70s YouTube channel has that BBC Documentary posted. YouTube permits embeding, so I thought that I would do so in this post.

As the session was about to end, Steve Wozniak was asked “How would you like people to remember you, after you die?“.His answer may surprise many. The Woz never let his Apple fortune go to his head.
His reply was: “I really want them to remember me as being a caring person, gave a lot, cared about others, and shared,“
You will note not one word about his fame and fortune, because to Steve Wozniak those things do not matter.
What mattered to Steve Wozniak was “Being a a caring person, gave a lot, cared about others, and shared,“
Something for each reader to think about, on their journey to Infinity…

In April 2015 they published a superb heart warming video on YouTube. Pandora filmed 6 kids, aged 3 to 6. The kids were blindfolded and were then gently moved towards a lineup of women. The kids were then asked to try and pick out their own Mother. Again, the children had blindfolds on and could not see. They could only use their other senses and intuition to pick out their Mother from the group of women. Each child succeeded in finding their own Mom.
Some may send me emails telling me “But it’s a TV Commercial”. My answer is: “So what if it is a commercial ?”.
Pandora’s video is also “Wonderful Art”. Beautifully thought out and crafted, making a simple point. It also touches your soul. Too few things posted on the Internet, or in life for that matter, are able to that.
Read the comments which were posted on TheOfficialPandora YouTube channel about this video. Women stated that they had cried, while viewing it. This video tugs at your heart, especially if you are a Mother. There is a special bond between children and their Mothers.
This video really makes a very powerful connection with the viewer, especially if they are a Mom.
Hope that all of you enjoy this video, as much as I do.

AMD held their first quarter Investor Conference call (Earnings call) in mid April 2015. Towards the end of that AMD Conference Call. Lisa Su, AMD President and CEO, stated:
“What we also are factoring in is, you know, with the Windows 10 launch at the end of July,”
Search Engine Spiders had to re-index this site. Normally that is a death sentence, because for all intents and purposes, when the Domain Name is changed, the site becomes a brand new site to Search Engines.
Thank you for any and all help which was provided by the readers of this site. Special thanks also goes out the folks at paloalto Networks ( a Leading CyberSecurity firm).
With all the help, this site did not disappear from the major Search Engines.
Today, April 21 2015, Google changed their Algorithm for their Mobile Search. We got hurt just a “tiny” bit. The fix is to have slightly longer posts. Great, more of my typos to come your way…
Overall, things have turned out way better than I had anticipated. I had been rather worried.
An interesting lesson occurred.The FEYE stock price reversed and hit my Sell Stop last Friday. Today (Mon Apr 20) FEYE reversed and rose back up again, rather nicely. It closed on Apr 20 2015 at $42.43.
I have found that sticking to one’s Sell Stop allows one to stay in the game. Yes, I suffered a small loss by selling. Next time a Sell Stop may save me from a huge loss. You cannot win at this game without having losing trades.
Okay, where the heck did I put that bottle of Bourbon…

The new Sell Stop for FEYE will be the Low which occurred on Apr 14. FEYE Sell Stop is now $40.81. If the prices falls to or below $40.81 the Sell Stop becomes a Market Order and the 1,000 shares of FEYE would be sold off. Sell Stops can protect you against a big loss. So far the FEYE trade has not done well. We’re still in the game until the Sell Stop gets hit.
The new Sell Stop for CSCO will again be the Low which occurred on Apr 14.
CSCO Sell Stop is now $27.68. If the prices falls to or below $27.68 the Sell Stop becomes a Market Order and the 1,000 shares of CSCO would be sold off. Sell Stops can protect you against a big loss.
So far the CSCO trade looks good. It has hit a Resistance Level, but the trading volume has held steady. If it can fill the Gap which was created on Fen 12 2015, by hitting the price of $28.84 or higher, that will bode well for a further rise. The Feb 12 Low of $28.84 looks to be the next Resistance Level for CSCO.
UPDATE Apr 17 8PM :
FEYE Sell Stop got hit today. Sold 1000 shares at $40.81. First loss, of many to come…
UPDATE Apr 20 11:30PM:
Guess what FEYE closed today at $42.43. I may get back in, but usually do not play the same stock for fear of trying to get even. I’m not upset since I strictly followed selling once the Sell Stop got hit. In the long term doing so will pay off, as it has in the past.

Cisco and FireEye, both trading on Nasdaq, are looking interesting. Maybe breaking out.
For our new imaginary portfolio I will buy 1,000 shares each of CSCO and FEYE on Nasdaq at open on Monday Apr 13. I will use the official “Open” price.
Investing and Trading is something that I’m considering getting back into.
The number 13 is supposedly “unlucky”, so we’ll see how these trades will work out. They both will be swing trades.
I’ll try and post charts tomorrow night. It’s half past midnight (AM) right now on Apr 13 2015
