Todd Butler: funnier all the time

Seeing Todd Butler in Nanaimo this past weekend, at the 50 seat Blues Underground, reminded me of just how good and freaking funny he is. The video below contains the bit from his act where he plays his guitar on his back -- no, not lying on his back -- on his back (as you'll see).
Okay, so maybe it's on his shoulders. Still pretty impressive. As for the rest of his act, see him live sometime -- the other videos on the web just don't do him justice. Continue

Oh, that's it: he's actually funny

Two profound questions have been keeping me awake at night lately: 1) why has Seth Rogan lost all that weight?, and 2) why is Seth Rogan successful? Both questions have been answered by this video of him performing stand-up at the age of 13 in Vancouver. Answer 1: that's actually his natural weight, and 2) actually, he's a pretty funny writer.

In the photo section below you'll find a sneak preview of some of the pics we're working with, taken by Aidan Moher, not yet photoshopped, pretty much not yet organized. Once we're done, we'll have added text and audio as well. It should be up in the magazine sometime in August. My thanks to Marshall Soules for the photos we've been featuri… Continue

Our first spammer

Wow. Exciting. We had our first spammer. "Chicken Wrestler" left responses for a few of you, peddling ringtones and, oh, I forget what. ChickenWrestler has now been banned, which also had the happy effect of removing his spam. Rest assured that any future cases will be dealt with in the same way. Continue

Help create Bobalicious (or should that be "Help! Create Bobalicious!")

Bobalicious is the new community wing of backofthebook.ca. And by the way, the name "Bobalicious" is up for grabs, like everything else here. That's why you've been invited to help create it. Mostly I'm hoping that people will post interesting and/or pithy blog material that can then be featured on the backofthebook.ca main page. If we feature it, we'll pay you for it. But, of course, people will do with a social community what they will -- that's the whol… Continue
