Torontoist caught-up with Dave Azzolini and Jess Grassia of The Golden Dogs recently. Having finished a radio interview, they were rushing to pick up the rest of the band and proceed to The Docks for 2007 Indie Awards. Torontoist interviewed them in their van as all this happened—because such is Canadian Music Week. (And apparently we enjoy bands and their vans.)

Amidst the car horns and national flags in Little Italy yesterday evening, a long line-up formed in front of The Royal for its would-be last film, Stanley Kubrick’s “2001: A Space Odyssey” . The screening was supposed to start at 9pm but it wasn’t until 9:30pm that the thank-yous to the staff began and one of the current owners confirmed that the theatre will be reborn sometime in the future. As an extra treat, the projectionist showed a Three Stooges short before finally playing the opening overture to Kubrick’s film. Sometime around midnight, the theatre shut its doors for the last time, albeit temporarily.
