Bad move! It was -8000°C and we decided to walk around 400 m to our hotel at the airport both Jeff and I had nothing but thin leather jackets while Stuart strutted in his full on goose down parka… Jerk! ;-)The day off was meant to just chill out and relax… Thats all we all did - I met up with a friend for dinner later that night and had a great time but was still very exhausted.The next day was also an off day with one little bit of television to do… Once we completed that we went back to rooms to chill before going out as a band for a nice dinner. After the dinner we headed out to what Jeff thought was an amazing blues bar that turned out to be a completely empty karaoke bar… Oh yes, yes we did! It of course started with the captain joining the karaoke hostess on stage performing amazing harmonies… Then I decided to make my way up and try to harmonize as well instead of just singing a song as you normally would… Yes, I sucked… I sucked horribly! LOL! Stuart took a stab at it but he sang solo so his came off much better than mine but I already sucked so much and that I could not make my way back to the stage… What a great night!The next day we had two separate radio interviews and performances…I once again enlisted my good friend Jennifer to drive us around all day… Huge props have to go up to her husband Gary who always allows me and the band to put her to work and be at our service! Both CITIFM and Power 97 were gracious and well prepared...you both rock Winnipeg, thank you so much! Following the interviews we had the rare opportunity of going to a massive coat factory for some free winter products… This was set up by none other than Howard Mansheim as he felt pity for us silly boys from Ontario in our thin black leather jackets! I got to tell you… I feel pretty special - we got hooked up Yo!Next of course was the sound check and a VIP party with pictures etc.… These are starting to run very smoothly we really appreciate our crew… These guys are top notch and we are running like a well oiled machine. The theatre in Winnipeg is absolutely stunning, almost 100 years old it makes you feel like youre playing to everyone directly in front of you its truly fantastic and its Decour and apparently the sound outfront is outstanding… At least when you come and see The Tea Party!Following the show I held my second post gig off the hook front lounge of the bus dance party… It was incredible! Unfortunately when I have lots of video I cannot share as JM would absolutely kill me…but everyone must know - this man has moves… Sick moves! The party was wild I literally yanked part of the ceiling down better known as the disco light structure ... JM immediately put on his toolbelt and fixed it - he did everything that night he was truly on fire!After a long goodbye to our very dear friends in Winnipeg we hit the road for a day off in Saskatoon. We had one commitment that evening which turned out to be absolutely amazing! Rock 102 had set up a contest for about 25 or 30 winners plus guests… It was at this guitar shop that posted a bar with an incredible stage. Im not talking one of those guitar shops that have the overbearing bright lights and shiny metal objects all over the place - this was a dimly lit cool as hell pub that I would want to hang out in that happened to sell guitars! We did a three song acoustic set that was truly outstanding everyone really enjoyed it, then we hung out for pictures and autographs… Back to the hotel to chill for the night.Good morning Saskatoon… Today weve got a show at OBriens theatre but first we have a television commitment with CTV Saskatoon. The host was incredibly funny think of that guy who played Elaines boyfriend on Seinfeld… Puddy! He was normally just the weatherman but the morning hosts were off that week and he is absolutely hilarious. Onto sound check and the VIP meet and greet this club is sounding really good… Especially since I just picked up my new in-ear system from JH Audio...these bad boys make everything sound even better than what I am normally used to go with my old in-ear system! Come show time we had to run from the bus across 100 m of snow to get into the backstage since there is really no dressing rooms available at this venue… Strange for such a great venue. The show was great - Martin saying like a demon but played guitar even better…Stuart and I were locked in nice and solid, its good to be where we are at at this point in the tour! Once we were done it was back to the hotels for showers and back on the bus for an overnight drive to Calgary… Bam! What was that?! A car just careened into the bus early morning on the highway leading into Calgary - a young girl texting… More details later!Be good to each other.Follow me on Twitter @burrowsdrumsL.A.M.F.JB Wholesale Phillies Jerseys .

Hello Kerry, After watching Nino Niederreiter clobber Alex Burrows with an open-ice hit on Wednesday, do you think he should have gotten more than the two minutes for interference.SACRAMENTO, Calif. - The challenge of matching up with Oklahoma Citys high-powered offence led by Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook brought out the best of the struggling Sacramento Kings.Rudy Gay scored 28 points and Darren Collison added 24 to help the Kings snap a 12-game losing streak to Oklahoma City with a 104-83 victory over the Thunder on Wednesday night.The Kings allowed season lows in points and shooting percentage (32.6 per cent) in their fourth win in 11 games under new coach Tyrone Corbin.I thought tonight was the first night in a long time where we really committed on the defensive end, Collison said. I dont know if it was the stage of the game playing a team like OKC, but I thought our urgency was really high tonight.DeMarcus Cousins had 23 points and 15 rebounds, and the Kings rolled to their first win against Oklahoma City since Feb. 12, 2012.Durant scored 24 points for the Thunder, who shot just 32.6 per cent and lost both games of a brief Northern California road trip.This marked the first time all season that Oklahoma City lost back-to-back games with Durant and Westbrook in the lineup.

Back-to-back 3-pointers by Collison early in the third quarter put Sacramento up by 17 and Ben McLemores putback in the closing seconds made it 78-57 heading to the fourth.This feels like a good win, Cousins said. Weve had othher wins but with those wins, you could feel like it wasnt a good win or a good way to win.ddddddddddddTwo nights after shooting 31 per cent in a loss at Golden State, the Thunder were still searching for their shooting stroke. Oklahoma City missed 14 straight shots in the first quarter to fall behind 25-7 on a jumper by Cousins.Westbrook missed six of seven shots, scoring on an emphatic dunk, and Durant missed four of five as the Thunder started the game 2 for 21.We found the good shots but couldnt hit them tonight, Durant said. When you get down 25-7 thats when you start to rush and turn the ball over. So we have to go back to the drawing board and get our next one.A 3-pointer by Perry Jones with just under a minute left ended the drought. Serge Ibaka added a fast-break bucket and a 3-pointer to fuel a 9-0 run, but the Thunder still trailed 28-16 after one when Collison hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer.The Kings maintained a comfortable lead throughout the second quarter.
