After a mighty tour of the USA with her hometown Winnipeg pals, The Weakerthans, busting out mega jams and wowing crowds in preparation for the release of her jaw-dropping Nevertheless stateside May 6, Christine Fellows returns home to empty her suitcase (she only packed pretzel crumbs) and clean house (pretzel crumbs get everywhere) for the arrival of artist supreme/projector queen Shary Boyle. I havent seen anyone rock an overhead projector like Shary Boyle, she pretty much blows away the competition for me (of course the competition for me so far has consisted mostly of junior high science teachers). The two head off to Regina for a rippin show at the Dunlop Gallery. Speaking of fine art, Christine might have time to critique some of them purdy pictures while on tour in Europe with, surprise surprise, her best pals... wait for it The Weakerthans! These dudes loved Christines music so much that theyve invited her along on their month long trek overseas. This will be Christines first European tour! Watch out for the rhinos Christine, they are EVERYWHERE!
