I have not been to many concerts in my life, so I did not know what to expect when I went to see Lynyrd Skynyrd in concert last month. A few years ago, I saw Celine Dion in concert and was very impressed by her beautiful stage, the infallible theatrics of her performers, and the wardrobe changes. I expected the Lynyrd Skynyrd concert to be similar, but it was nothing like that at all. Concerts can vary in considerable ways; everything from the stage set up, performance, and the audience can completely

It’s been 15 years since classically trained pianist and actor Richard Greenblatt blew Toronto audiences away with "Soft Pedalling," his one-man show that toured Canada for two years; and it’s been nine years since Ted Dykstra caused a sensation at the keyboards in Paul Ledoux and David Young’s evangelical rock musical, "Fire" (though less than one since Dykstra’s exquisite rendering of oily Cousin Kevin in the Toronto production of "Tommy"). For those who recall these performances, as well as Greenblatt’s

Describe at least ONE important setting in the text(s). Explain how the setting helped to show the author / creator’s idea(s), supporting your points with visual and / or oral language features. The film Pleasantville written, directed and produced by Gary Ross shows a time period in American History where life was more comfortable, stable and ‘perfect’ if you would generalise it.

Review of Hatchet by Gary Paulsen I read the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. The book was about a thirteen-year-old boy named Brian Robeson who was stranded in a plane crash.

First as Brian and the pilot were flying to Brian father?s house the pilot was showing Brian how to fly the plane. ? Here, put your

Anti-Consumerism in the Works of Kerouac, Ginsberg, and Roth   After World War II, Americans became very concerned with "keeping up with the Joneses." Everyday people were not only interested in fulfilling the American Dream because of the optimistic post-war environment, but also because of the economic emphasis on advertising that found a new outlet daily in highway billboards, radio programs, and that popular new device, the television. With television advertising becoming the new way to

The National Hockey League (NHL) lockout began on September

The entire 2004-2005 NHL Hockey season was on ice, cancelled due to a lockout announced by Commissioner Gary Bettman because the players union would not accept any proposal that included a salary cap during contract negotiations.

The main setting, where most of those incidents have occurred, is the woods of Minnesota and occasionally Alaska. To me, it feels that Paulsen is just as amazed at his
