The blog of an Edmonton musician, a cynical romantic, a passionate soul, and a dedicated lover of beauty. Sometimes I paint, sometimes I draw, sometimes I laugh, cry, hope, dream, fall, get up, and move on. But I always remember.

A little bit of serendipity the other night when we found ourselves on the road looking at a living version of my tour poster for #theviewtour. Tonight is our last show, a house concert in Winnipeg with the talents of @okay_mann and @fontinemusic. Message for the address! #yegmusic #yegarts #abmusic #abarts #wpgmusic #wpgarts (at Kenora, Ontario)

If I squint real hard and tilt my head, the graffiti looks like it says "Salsa". I don't know if it is in reference to the dance or the food, but either way, I'm into it. 馃摳by @tobyelwes #abmusic #yegarts #yegmusic #explorecanada #to #thesix #theviewtour (at Toronto, Ontario)

Moonlight Toby is my 12th favorite Toby, but only by .000000000001 % so it's not that much of a difference. Here he is in our own little secret private beach on Cape Breton before we got lost on dirt roads and I had a panic attack. How lovely is this human? So lovely. @tobyelwes 鉂わ笍#theviewtour #heresmyview #capebretonisland #canada150 #yegmusic #yegarts #abmusic #canadaarts #montrealmusic (at Nova Scotia)

We borrowed a cute house from @evateresefoote, drank a lot of wine and fell in love with friends and the future. Here's to two weeks left in Montr茅al and too many adventures to come to count. @tobyelwes @avamartinez96 #montreal #abarts #canadaarts #abmusic #yegarts #yegmusic #montrealmusic (at Plateau Mont-Royal)

Well how-de-doody. I guess it's appropriate that this morning you were laying giggling on the floor of my apartment (I'm counting it as this morning because it was past midnight). In the past four years, we've drank far to much wine, whiskey, inhaled things we shouldn't have been inhaling (for health reasons of course ;)), and eaten far too much greasy food to admit unless in a semi-sentimental public post about our friendship. We have acted, and danced, stretched, teased, shared heartbreak and heartache and happiness and songs, as well as a number of stages and spaces playing music. Because of you, I felt more confident sharing my music with the world. Because of you, I've begun sharing my poetry, and because of you, I know and have come to love @lil_viss I have found what I want to do in music, and I now talk way too much about butts and what comes out of them. I don't care how much you drink or get sick or smell or sweat or cry or yell or laugh or smoke or talk or gossip, I will always be here for you. Your friendship means a lot to me (more than a post can say) and I am so thankful for the last four years. I can't wait to see what unmentionable things we get up to this next four years. Big thanks to @jajwyatt for casting us opposite one another four years ago. LOVE you Big Foote. (at The Needle Vinyl Tavern)

Thankful for today. We do not sit down, we stand up. We do not quiet ourselves; We find the strongest words and give them our strength. We will not go backwards, we will not give up the fight, we will not let our sisters down, regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, color, size, or ability. We will teach our sons not to rape, teach our sons that sensitivity is a strength, and our daughters how to believe in themselves and support each other. We will prompt real conversation with those around us, educate ourselves, encourage others to push themselves to be better people, and fight for the future of human rights. Why? Because women's rights are human rights. Because black lives matter. Because consent is important and no means no, and women's health also applies to the health of gender neutral people, gender queer people, and trans women and girls. Because you cannot pray the gay away. Because the history of indigenous peoples is the reason for this country that we now call ours, and they deserve respect, acknowledgement, and basic human rights. We have the power to make a difference, and while we fight against a man and government who stand to do so much harm, we must realize that we need one another more than ever. So let's stand up, and stand together. We are the wall that Trump claims he will build, but we will build the wall to protect the world from all the hate he stands for. We stand stronger together. #blacklivesmatter #sistersofthenorth #manifdesfemmes #manifdesfemmesmtl #womensmarch #womensmarchonwashington #notmypresident #translivesmatter #blacktranslivesmatter #whyimarch #canada #mtl #yeg 馃摳@tobyelwes (at Esplanade de la Place des Arts)

Just over two weeks ago I dropped into Edmonton to surprise my dad, and then took a day trip out to Wabamun lake with pal and fellow art maker @lukemjansen. And hey, I look kinda cool. #explore #exploreab #yeg #nature #ruralab #photographersofig (at Seba Beach, Alberta)
