Toronto Heat

Toronto is in the middle of a heat wave and the garbage men are on strike, a lethal combination. I have a day to myself before i head up to Orillia for the Mariposa Folk festival, so i walk around downtown and hang out in shops to worship the god of air conditioning.Very happy to find my CD`s in HMV here which means that Festival Distribution, who handle the product here, are on the case. Simple Minds are playing in town but i`m not tempted, caught them a few years ago in Cardiff. I drive up to Orillia having left my hotel in Toronto at the moment that i knew Tim Henman was going to loose. Take part in a strange local TV show on site and then play a small workshop before heading back to the hotel. Artists and officials from the festival are currently wandering the corridors looking for a party they say is going on but know one can find. Rock n Roll!
