This past weekend I had the pleasure of seeing one of my favourite local bands live for the first time in over a year. Toronto’s own White Cowbell Oklahoma took the stage at Lee’s Palace for their CD release party, but there were a couple of new faces on stage. The most notable new face was that of guitarist Joan Smith (from another awesome local band Little Foot Long Foot). Now, a great musician joining a great band is always worth mentioning, but in this case the value is twofold. Besides the fact that Smith is an incredible guitarist and singer, she also happens to be a woman. This wouldn’t be noteworthy either, except I’ve always thought of White Cowbell Oklahoma as one of the, well, manliest band’s out there.

This week I came to the startling revelation (at least for me) that the human race, as a species, has reached evolutionary saturation. We are now at the tipping point of depravity, debauchery, and hedonistic self-pursuit where Rome and Greece collapsed as empires. Aside from the fighting and political upheavals – which are the cornerstone of all megologarchies since we learned to beat each other with clubs – our descent as a species rises and falls on what we spend our time doing between wars.
