Wow... It's hard to believe that there was once a time when musicians could strike. Imagine that - strike! Now the idea is simply laughable.

I hope everybody is enjoying their holidays as I am. Reminder that I'm playing with the Elastocitizens at the Horseshoe Tavern on Jan 2!

Hello Ottawa. You are snowy, your hockey team disappoints me and you make me homesick for nowhere in particular. But I still love you.

Feeling lucky to be alive after being caught driving on a rural highway during the storm - that was terrifying.

Back in Business
Posted in Website on December 17th, 2008Welcome back - davidatkinson.ca has finally been fixed. While there are still a great many CSS bugs to be sorted out, the bulk of the site is now back online.
While even this very post is probably not formatting correctly, the most important stuff - promo material - seems to be displaying ok. While there may be yet another layout overhaul, hopefully the content that you see now before you is around for good. Comments are disabled due to the spammy nature of the internet, but eventually there will be some kind of contact form where I can be reached for bookings, or site suggestions.
