I literally snapped this shot while walking through an alley on Queen West last night. Sent it to Bjorn, and he got to work. Here, then, is the art for SFH’s newest tune, recorded (and videotaped) at a location that will not be disclosed (they don’t want to be harassed by Ford’s bylaw thugs). Video and song will be out next week. Whaddya think?
UPDATE: Although, my newspaper’s cover is pretty darn good, too:
I kind of doubt that Harper will be in attendance at Rob Ford’s barbecue this year. This morning’s headlines – in which Ford’s former Chief of Staff confirms that Ford has a substance abuse problem, and that martial law is about to be declared in North America’s fourth-largest city – suggest Harper may be, er, elsewhere on the appointed day.
But we shouldn’t let him get away with that. Stephen Harper has aided and abetted Rob Ford every step of the way. Given his present difficulties, he doesn’t want you to remember that (his minions have scrubbed the video below every time it pops up on the Internet – but not on this web site!). But the fact remains: he’s one of Rob Ford’s enablers. (And don’t get me started on the ones who were, and now pretend not to be.)
Here’s the video. Download it and share it!
This is fun! Just did a phoner with CITY-TV about the latest installment in this three-ring circus masquerading as a municipal government: Rob Ford just fired his most senior, and most loyal, guy: his Chief of Staff.
Anyway. Just thought I’d post the screen grab, because it struck me as amusing, somehow. Now CITY wants to hear SFH’s anti-Rob Ford tune!
I have arrived – about three decades after the fact. Check this out:
The NME! Writing about a band I was in! And a song I wrote when I was 16 years old! Suck on that, Calgary Nasties-haters! Ha!
Okay, sorry. Couldn’t help myself, there.
SFH, meanwhile, play plenty of Nasties’ tunes – and we are going into the studio today to record our anti-Rob Ford anthem! Stay tuned!
Wow. Just, wow.
The problem is the drug allegations have now paralyzed this agenda.
It’s a distraction that utterly undermines Ford’s ability to manage a dysfunctional council that opposes any notion of restraint.
Ford needs to directly address these allegations, or get help and step aside.
He must be prepared, for the city’s sake and his own, to do one or the other.
From “mikesunday,” at shawnawilliams@outlook.com:

Who are these guys? They’re Rob Ford staffers, that’s who they are, passing out Rob Ford business cards and fridge magnets at Peter Worthington’s funeral.
