Extra, Extra: A Capella Pop, Poutine Spectable Doesn’t Stop, and TIFF’s About To Drop
Every weekday’s end, Extra, Extra collects just about everything you ought to care about or ought not miss.
- Mike Tompkins makes a capella versions of pop songs. You won’t want to like them, but you probably will. Above: Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the USA.” There’s also Owl City’s “Fireflies,” and a mashup of Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream” and Bruno Mars’ “Just the Way You Are.” More from the Toronto-based artist (?) here.
- If photos from “Furious” Pete Czerwinski’s attempt to eat fifteen pounds of poutine in one sitting live on 102.1 The Edge weren’t enough, there’s video now.
- And hey, do you care about TIFF? Our coverage of the annual film festival, which’ll have started by this time next week, is ramping up now, but stay tuned for a little something extra—launching soon.
