"Just take those old records off the shelf, I'll sit and listen to 'em by myself, today's music ain't got..." Oh. Ahem...sorry, just reliving the old days of Fisher-Price rollerskating around the house to Bob Seger (and Joan Jett, if anyone's counting). Did you know that good ol' Bob is in town this week at the ACC? Did anyone know he was still alive and kicking? There are still tickets available for Tuesday, so......

Who likes lists? Everybody! As we creep up on the new year, we thought we'd reflect on a few of our more popular (and our more controversial) posts of the past twelve months. Thanks to our revamped Favourites page, it's a little easier. If nothing else, this post will give you some reading material to glance over while you're busy getting spiffy for this fine evening. 1. Our TTC Swag Suggestions (144 comments, October......

Toro Magazine, free to Globe and Mail subscribers, released its Men of the Year issue yesterday. Featured honourees include Steve Nash, Brian Mulroney, Paul Haggis, The Trailer Park Boys, Kiefer Sutherland, William Shatner and sweet, hot luscious Ryan Gosling. Torontoist favourites like Final Fantasy and Lukas Rossi were runners up in the music category, but how do you compete against Neil Young? Evangeline Lilly was named Woman of the Year, because she runs around the......

Unfortunately for Wentworth Miller, star of Prison Break, he can't Google himself in private like the rest of us. When Miller was stalked by a paparazzo into an L.A. internet café on October 20, Torontoist was amused to notice he was reading about himself on Dose.ca, the still-active online derivation of the defunct daily. This is the page he's looking at. Now, granted, this is nothing more than a minor revelation, but it makes......

Never too highbrow not to enjoy a little trashy gossip, Torontoist noticed a minor celebrity firestorm this week when recently beefed-up Canada.com boldly dropped a bomb into another actor's closet. The report multiplied instantly across celebrity blogs and caused a publicist to quickly respond with what some are calling an "inning." The subject was Neil Patrick Harris, who according to the Canada.com report, nepotistically landed a role on TV series How I Met Your Mother......

Torontoist has done it again. Not only did we accurately predict the fall of Communism and every U.S. President since Teddy Roosevelt, way back at the beginning of August we told you that Toronto’s own Lukas Rossi would win Rockstar:Supernova. That’s the show where American Idol meets Spinal Tap at CBGB, or something like that. Anyway, the votes are in, and the former Hooters fry cook is riding high as the new singer for “Supernova”,......

Can a hard-rocking cat from Toronto’s seamy west end win over American TV audiences, impress three of the most jaded rock stars on the planet, and still keep his artistic integrity? Well, Lukas Rossi, Toronto’s contribution to CBS' “Rock Star: Supernova” reckons that he can. For readers not fully acquainted with the CBS rock'n'roll oeuvre, “Rock Star:Supernova” is the followup to last years’ hugely successful “Rock Star: INXS”. This time the band auditioning for......
