7 great things about today

It's Groundhog Day! And Punxsutawney Phil, Nova Scotia's Shubenacade Sam and Ontario's Wiarton Willie have all predicted Spring! Hooray!

Listen up! San Fran rockers the Dodo's have given the world a sneak peak at their new album No Color. You can stream their song, "Black Night" here. They're playing at the Rickshaw in Vancouver on 31 March so get your tickets!

James Joyce and Farrah Fawcett both share a birthday. And it's just been announced that the red swimming suit and poster that Farrah made famous are being donated to the Smithsonian along with a bunch of her scripts from the first season of Charlie's Angels.

It's time to make some room on those credit cards again because UK band, the Klaxons, and Canada's Indie Rocker's, Tokyo Police club, are both playing in Vancouver in April. Tickets go on sale tomorrow and Friday so check out the Georgia Straight for information and pre-sale deets.

Yes, it's hump day and the weekend is just that little bit closer...
