The original Lethbridge blog.
When the Lethbian Lovers aren’t blogging, and we’re usually not, we jetset to Croatia for a (second) wedding and a honeymoon, taking in a Foo Fighters concert after raising a stink, and then expecting a stink to raise! Read our latest recap to see just how many bags of leaves you can pickup downtown too!
Our very own Melissa is one half of Lethbian Love. She’s a yogi, mountain biker, my wife, and the manager for the Downtown Lethbridge BRZ Clean Sweep Program. She’s also the winner of the 2019 “Unsung Hero” award from the Celebrate Downtown event!
Who silently gets married in a comic shop and lets it spill to social media? The Lethbian Lovers do, that’s who.
We chose to have our wedding in the presence of the God of Thunder at Kapow, and we’d like to share some of that with you.

I had the wonderful opportunity to help out with a crew of diverse women who were ready to get their hands dirty in the art form of micro-brewing.
Dear fellow Otaku, It has come to my attention that Nishikaze, meaning "west wind," is once again upon us. Yes, Lethbridge's very own anime and Japanese culture con is happening on Saturday, June 28 at the University of Lethbridge. Expect nosebleeds this time, because there will be a maid café!

I got an email from a publicist the other day giving me a heads up that Calgary electro-pop duo Sidney York is playing at The Slice on January 25th. I always am happy when bands call on little ol' me for exposure because I get to listen to new albums before they're out! Today, in …
He's the host of CBS' The Late Late Show and he's literally coming to Lethbridge. Our little city is getting a mention, along with a few chuckles on air: Just For Laughs is thrilled to announce that Scottish comedian and festival favorite Craig Ferguson will be hitting select Canadian cities this fall with his witty and hilarious stand up performance aptly …
So there was this one time where I was big on Twitter and it just so happened that I won a contest. Courtesy of the National Music Centre in Calgary, I won this weird music contraption called a Korg Monotron. However my doppelganger, Bonnaventure James, also entered this contest and was insanely jealous. To the point …
Awhile ago, when this whole "occupy" fad was still big, I posted one of Leeroy Stagger's latest songs from his new album, "Truth Be Sold." It's now available for purchase from his website, but thanks to the CBC you can listen to the WHOLE THING for free online. Sorry for the no embed, but CRTC …
Yo, it's Free Comic Book Day, so head over to your local comic book shoppe! There may or may not be a cute girl cosplaying at Showcase Comics. I have yet to see this, but will ensure to give my best hoverhand if my mom will let me go. JonnyI’m a webslinger located in Lethbridge, …

Dr. Len Ferguson – optometrist by day, electronica musician by night. You might remember him as the “embarrassing dad” at the Lethbridge Electronic Music Festival (LEMF) in August 2012. But for those who don’t, here’s something to jog your memory: Since the video went viral, Len has been featured on sites like Huffintgton Post, Gawker …
Occasionally, I get emails from band publicists to help promote Canadian artists on tour. I'd always pleased to see folks from around our country taking interest in our city and spending the time to reach out to me. Tara writes: You’d be hard-pressed to find a more talented pair than Toronto’s Peter Katz and Emma-Lee. Both …

Awhile ago, I featured a track from a DJ named Evangelos. He doesn't go by the name "Sleepy Head" anymore; rather, Sanctums. He's upped on Bandcamp a name-your-price (i.e. free) album up for grabs, and a pal of mine has a remix of his own in there. Jaron writes: Really excited, Sanctums aka Evangelos X Typist & …

Looks like the team roster is shaking up, but they're always looking for more fresh meat (yes, …
