Vancouver Is Awesome, and we are dedicated to everything that makes it that way.

If you want to read ugly, bad news about this beautiful city of ours, you’re going to have to look to traditional media and other blogs; V.I.A. promotes everything that makes our city awesome, from old to new and everything inbetween. We’re like the human interest piece on the news… only different.

Somewhat selfless self promotion

A couple of weeks back KingShit.org launched. It’s a site that publishes features that have to do with skateboarding, creativity, products, events and all sorts of things-related, it’s based out of Toronto and is headed up by former SBC honcho, Ryan Stutt. Basically, it’s a breath of fresh air, but I didn’t plug it here when it first dropped because there wasn’t really a Vancouver tie-in and as much as I hate to scream out the fact that I’ve just got some new press the tie-in now is me… but in a way it’s actually us because in my interview that launched today I discuss VancouverIsAwesome.com and let a cat out of the bag about a bigger plan that I’ve got for this thing, among other things. Have a look.

One of those “other things” I talk about is my first film, Little Giants Volume One: Don Pendleton (click to view the trailer) that released on DVD not long ago. We were supposed to do a premiere for it in Vancouver but somehow it fell through and the distributor that’s handling the series for me (based in California) hasn’t got it into many Canadian stores. I’d like to offer anybody in Vancouver free shipping ($8 off) on the DVD (with accompanying 20 page booklet of Don’s work) if you buy it directly from me here in the next 7 days. We’re selling it off of Mumble for $27.95, click below to get it for $19.95. I’ll cover the postage. Shit, if you live between my house and my office I’ll probably just drop it off personally.
