Atom

It was 1999 hardcore and punk was alot different then what it is these days. Atom and His Package was loved and Hated in both hardcore and punk scenes when he was around. I don't really know what it was about him. He just had a quirky voice and stupid yet funny lyrics with synthesizers and the guitar.

I had a chance to put on a show for Atom w/ Mid Carson July and Dragbody at the masonic lodge in Mississauga the Jazz June where also on the Bill but could not get across the boarder. The show was poorly attended as where most shows back then it seems unless it was mostly local bands playing together. Anyway... I was going thou some old boxes of just random stuff I've accumulated over the years and found these pictures that I took at the show and thought I would share the picutres. Enjoy.





after uploading these pictures I decided to dust of a atom and his package - A Society Of People Called Elihu and listen to it.. Just as I remember it. I thought I would upload it for the very few people who actually read this thing. It was record in 1997 and came out on The Mountain Cooperative.

Leslie Spit


Friday after work Me, Steve, Michelle, Sandy and Patrick took a ride out to the Leslie spit. The ride out was about 30k round trip. We made it out to the Lighthouse just before sunset. We where joking about half way down the trail to the lighthouse that it would suck if someone got a flat tire we took a little walk around the area and found a little bunny. we came back to our bikes to watch the sunset and Michelle noticed that she got a flat. But we lucked out and someone coming up had a tube repair kit, so we did not have to walk all the way back into town. The ride was awesome. I gotta get out and explore more this summer. Sandy took some pics. here they are:


The bugs around the light house where insane.
