VANCOUVER, CANADA, 21 - 24 June 2024
On 21st June, we took buses and a train to the Broadway/Commercial area of Vancouver to attend the festival which was being put on for National Indigenous Day. We were able to see some wonderful craft work on many stalls which had been created using traditional skills. Many women were wearing very attractive traditional “ribbon skirts” which are skirts made from bands of colourful ribbon sewn together. We were introduced to the local MP who had flown in from Ottawa to attend the festival. My relative P knew the MP as they worked together some years ago when the MP was a MLA ( member of the legislature for the Province of British Columbia). There was a music programme through the afternoon. We were fortunate to find some shade to listen to the entertainment:

We returned to the hotel for a short time before making our way by bus and train again to the Waterfront. We then took the seabus across to the area of Vancouver called the North Shore. We went to visit the Friday evening market. This took place in and around the old shipyards. There were a huge number of stalls selling all types of artisan crafts as well as food trucks producing a wide range of foods.
Tumblr media
There was a huge area devoted to a Splash play area for children where they were having such fun:
Tumblr media
We walked down the pier to take in the view of Vancouver downtown. We were able to find a great table for dinner with a super view across the water. (The building with white sails is the cruise terminal).
Tumblr media
Dinner was very noisy as there was a TV on showing a key ice hockey match (6th match in a series of 7 in the Stanley Cup between the Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers). There was an ecstatic atmosphere when the Canadian team won as it meant each team had won three matches. On our way back to the seabus, we passed this interesting photograph on a brick wall of the shipyard workers many years ago:
Tumblr media
On 22 June, we went to the science park area of the city to watch some of the Dragon Boat races in the Dragon Boat Festival. This was a huge event with teams from all over Canada and USA. There were a huge number of stalls showcasing services as well as artisan crafts with a focus on Chinese culture. There was a traditional parade of the Chinese dragon:
Tumblr media
We enjoyed watching many races. Here was the view of the boats speeding towards us:
Tumblr media
The rowers looked very tired after a race but the boats looked very picturesque in the water as the referee confirmed the race result:
Tumblr media
On 23 June, it was the National Day of Prayer for the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. We attended the morning service at Christ Church Cathedral in downtown Vancouver. Prior to the service we attended an hour’s lecture on the history of the renovation of the cathedral. It was built at the start of the 20th Century and has been extended, adapted and repaired several times. The cathedral had added a modern bell tower which was beautiful:
Tumblr media
We had lunch in the Art Gallery Restaurant and we were able to catch some lovely jazz music from youth jazz musicians playing in Robson Square.
On 24 June we took the bus again to Stanley Park. This time we walked around the waterfront towards the Lion’s Gate Bridge:
Tumblr media
We watched a heron on the water’s edge for some time. We then walked through some of the forest area to the Pavilion for lunch.
After returning to the hotel we prepared for the evening’s final match in the Ice Hockey’s Stanley Cup. Sadly for P the Edmonton Oilers were beaten by the Florida Panthers in the 7th decider match.

In it’s 35th year, the Ottawa Dragon Boat festival is an attraction for outdoor music revellers, beach enthusiasts and competitive dragonboat racers. The best part – it’s free. So, for anybody that may have missed it this year, put it on your calendar for next year as a must see event!
Here is what you may have missed-
Day One
The Elwins: A great new band from Keswick, ON with a lot of fun, upbeat songs. They have a great stage presence and one of the best moustaches I have ever seen. Find them here- http://www.theelwins.com/.

Said the Whale: I first seen Said the Whale a number of years back at the Folk on the Rocks festival in Yellowknife, NT. They were very new back then with a very unique and interesting sound. With a bit of pop mixed with some west coast Canadian folk. Their style has remained much the same and I was excited to see them again. Although, I was a bit disappointed hearing them this year as I don’t think the venue fit their music very well. It seemed muted and not as fun as I recall, but we all have our bad days, so don’t let this stop you from giving them a listen. Find them here- https://www.saidthewhale.com/.

The Sheepdogs: As expected. Hailing from Saskatchewan, these guys have gained popularity with their bluesy filled, rock/folk music and their country stylin’ appearance. It’s the type of music you want to hear loud at any outdoor (or indoor) music festival. The Sheepdogs filled the park with more Dragonboat festival goers than any other band this past weekend. Find them here- http://www.thesheepdogs.com/.

Day Two
Kalle Mattson: Not to be outdone by the cool temps and overcast, Kalle had some nice chill tunes to help bring in the crowd for the upcoming acts. His mellow tunes encouraged folks to pull up a piece of lawn and crack open that first cold one. Find Kalle here- http://www.kallemattson.com/.

The Zolas: In some cases, a similar sound to Said the Whale, and 1 of several Vancouver based bands attending the Dragon Boat festival this year. The Zolas are fun and clearly love being in front of a crowd. I would be happy to see them again. Find the Zolas here- http://thezolasmusic.com/

Dear Rouge: Danielle from Dear Rouge is like Steve Tyler meets Joan Jet. From the moment she hit the stage, it was all about the performance. I can’t wait to see where Drew and Danielle McTaggert go – they can only get bigger. Great modern rock sound – don’t miss Dear Rouge!

Day Three
Twin Flames: A blend of modern folk and indigenous vibes. Twin Flames carry an amazing message of harmony and love for their community and the strong desire of expanding that community to reach every one that listens to their music. They call Ottawa home and like many of us that live in Canada, have a varied background of many different cultures. The strength of their values and desire to teach through their music should be embraced. You can find them here- https://www.twinflamesmusic.com/.

Kasador: What I would consider Canadian indie rock – if there was a poster, they would be on it. A blend of mellow guitar, great vocals and a fun beat. Fresh from Kingston, On and they only got together in 2015 – I look forward to more of their fine tunes.  The only disappointing bit was that the upcoming bands clearly had more gear than the stage could handle so Kasador was smushed over to one side of the stage. They still made the most of it and did an outstanding performance. Find them here- http://www.kasadorband.com/.

The Darcy’s: I am still not sure what to make of these guys. A two piece beach party with a lot of gear – this consisted of both a giant neon sign, a giant plastic lit palm tree and whatever gear you need to have a functioning air puppet on the stage. Yah, you know those things you see in front of used car lots waving around and popping up every 30 seconds… Props aside, they played some good tunes to welcome the sunshine back after a brief down pouring of rain. And here I have to give credit to the local Ottawa radio station, Live 88.5, for distributing some much needed rain ponchos. You can find more The Darcy’s here- http://www.thedarcys.ca/.

Half Moon Run: This band has really put a lot of thought into their light show. There was barely a moment when the stage was not dynamically changing through the effects of their lights – it was quite a feat. The crowd was not quite as big as it was for the Sheepdogs, but I think that may have been due to the risk of rain. And to be fair, it did rain earlier. I think their music was good, but I was memorized by the lights for most of the show – well… I was also trying to take pictures. Crazy light shows and photography don’t always mix, but when you do it right, you can get some pretty awesome shots. I would shoot performances like this all the time if I could. Find them here- https://www.halfmoonrun.com/.

That wraps up another year of music at the Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival.
