Not a Cakewalk….

Bonnie Parker I am not!

by Lee Aaron on February 17, 2011

(BTW – I have changed names here to protect, well, myself mostly….) I had a bizarre experience last week. I went to get a criminal record check (I have had many in the past) and suddenly found myself being escorted into the back room of the police station to be fingerprinted. Yes, little old me. …

Childsplay deliver fun punk rock

by Lee Aaron on August 19, 2010

Jaden from Childsplay sent me links to their two new videos – here they are! You said believe! “I love the gritty, back-alley rehearsal dive feel to this one. Reminds me of lots of places I rehearsed in the early days. Even though I can’t completely understand the lyric content, it’s almost secondary anyway. The …

TULIPS AND TABLOIDS

by Lee Aaron on July 31, 2010

I’m finally sitting down to write another blog, after cleaning a Polly Pocket pool party out of the sink, ignoring the enormous pile of unfolded laundry on my sofa, and tripping over Jett’s “wise-crackin’” Spider-man in the middle of the entranceway. I had a minor heart palpitation when Spidey shouted “YEEEHAWWW! LET’S GO ARACHNOBATIC ON …

Laundry and Bourbon

by Lee Aaron on April 8, 2010

Oh, you know, I’m just not feeling all that bloggish lately. I’ve been advised to blog more but I just can’t seem to summon interesting blog fare out of the air. Some people can write about anything but I’m not sure what I’m even doing sitting in front of the computer right now. Okay. Over …

R.I.P. Sweet Aunt Clara

by Lee Aaron on March 30, 2010

My mother’s younger sister, my beautiful aunt, died 10 days ago today. After a long, painful battle with pancreatic cancer she finally let go. Her determination NOT to leave this world was unbelievable. For the longest time – even though she was sent home without hope of recovery – it seemed as though she refused …

Peace on Earth directed by Floria Sigismondi

by Lee Aaron on March 20, 2010

There was a great article in the SUN today about THE RUNAWAYS film (in theatres today) directed by my old friend Floria Sigismondi. Her (video) directing debut was my PEACE ON EARTH video. We shot in a warehouse in sub-zero Toronto weather. My toes, which were bare, got frostbite. She brought me hot chocolate. She’s …

I am totally excited to see THE RUNAWAYS film by Canadian photographer/director Floria Sigismondi. I was fortunate enough to work with this talented lady a few times in my career. Great to see another Canadian girl getting her due!
