If they do a documentary of this Oasis reunion, I want a montage of Bonehead's gruelling 10-month index finger strengthening regime to get him bar chord ready for the gigs.
RIP Larry Updike #Winnipeg lost a legend in broadcasting today. Condolences to his family and all who will cherish is memory. 💔 @power97wpg https://t.co/ltKu3VB1fq
April Wine’s Legendary Singer-Songwriter MYLES GOODWYN Passes Away At Age 75
Myles Goodwyn, singer, guitarist, writer, producer and leader of the multi-Platinum selling rock band April Wine, who shaped and directed the group from its earliest beginnings, has died today at the age of 75 at Noon Atlantic Time. No further details on cause of death, location or funeral details will be disclosed at this time. The family asks for privacy.
April Wine has sold over 10 million recordings worldwide.
Myles Goodwyn’s voice is as distinctive and immediately recognizable as his song writing skills are prolific. Myles and the other members of April Wine were inducted into the Canadian Music Hall Of Fame in 2010.
Goodwyn received the prestigious East Coast Music Lifetime Achievement Award in 2008 and the SOCAN National Achievement Award in 2002. In 2016 he released his memoir named, Just Between You and Me, which became an instant best seller on the Globe and Mail`s Non-Fiction List. His second book, Elvis and Tiger (fiction) was published in 2018 and was also very well received.
The Myles Goodwyn and Friends Of The Blues recording released in 2018, it earned international acclaim and a JUNO nomination for Blues Recording of the Year in 2019. The recording won the ECMA award for Blues Recording of the Year in 2019. His follow up blues recording that year, Myles Goodwyn and Friends of the Blues 2, won the same blues category in 2020.
Myles left the group for live performances earlier this year, and continued to perform live with his acoustic trio which includes himself, Jim Henman and Bruce Dixon until recently.
A rare intact pyramid capstone; it is one of the few known in existence. The capstone belonged to the Black Pyramid, which was built by King Amenemhat III, c 1850-1800 BC.
The hand carving shows a solar disc with two cobras and outstretched wings (sign of protection) on each side. Below are two eyes (which refers to "seeing") and below that is the hieroglyph for "beauty" and finally below that is the hieroglyph for the "sun disc of Ra" (the ancient Egyptian deity of the sun). Put that all together and it reads: "Seeing the beauty of Ra".
Now we move to the left, which reads: "The Son of Ra, Amenemhat (in cartouche), given life forever."
Now go back to the center and read right: "King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Nimaatre (in cartouche), given life forever."
The second line reads from right to left: "May the face of the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, Nimaatre, be opened so that he may see the Lord of the Horizon (Horakhty, Horus of the Horizon) when he crosses the sky; may the Lord of the Horizon cause the Son of Ra, Amenemhat, to shine as a god, lord of eternity and indestructible."
The third line reads from right to left: "The Lord of the Horizon has said: 'I have given the beautiful horizon of the Two Ladies (Nebty) and Itjijautawy (He who inherited the Two Lands), so that you may unite with the horizon; the horizon has said that you rest upon it, which pleases me.'"
Footnotes: Nimaatre is Amenemhat III's throne name, while Itjijautawy is his 'Nebty' name (Nebty = Two Ladies, direct translation 'Nekhbet and Wadjet', euphemism of Egypt - Nekhbet is the patron vulture goddess of Upper Egypt while Wadjet is the patron cobra goddess of Lower Egypt). Amenemhat is his personal name.
Cup chances after Vegas goes up 3-1 in series. Panthers chances down to 7.5%. That’s the same chances the Panthers had at the very start of the playoffs. https://t.co/2nMPy5HBwX
absolutely brilliant life-affirming show by @RonSexsmith last night. i've seen him twice in cambridge but had somehow missed that he was playing. i saw his tweet (beauty of twitter!) at 9pm after a run, jumped in shower and on bike and caught last six songs. 10000% worth it.
