SarahMWhat a gorgeous day to spend at Lilith Fair! I had a wonderful time taking in the sun and fantastic music with friends.  Sarah sounds as spectacular live as she does on her new album Laws of Illusion. McLachlan is such a shining light on stage when she at down and started playing the piano the whole stadium was on their feet and listened intently to every note she sang.  Thxx for sending in a gorgeous pic of Sarah Mike Morrison!

Sheryl Crow played a phenomenal set.  She surprised and delighted fans by bringing her little 3 year old son Wyatt up on stage to play percussion – SO adorable!

I spotted Theo Fleury and his wife Jennifer in between sets.   Always love catching up with them and Theo has been working hard with Alberta Theatre Projects developing a new play based on his book

Local designer Paul Hardy (who designed Sarah McLachlan’s Juno dress in 2009) saw McLachlan before the big show – she stopped into his atelier in Kensington Saturday to do a bit of shopping.  Sarah and Paul will be collaborating with the Alberta Ballet in their new work featuring McLachlan’s music and Hardy’s designs.

Brett Wilson hosted a section of his closest 100 friends at Lilith before heading off to Africa with his kids to climb Mount Kilimanjaro.

Have you seen OK GO’s latest music video? It certainly is getting a lot of talk. You may remember these guys as the ones responsible for the treadmill video that was all done in one take. This video for This To Shall Pass took 60 attempts to get it right with a team of 20 engineers standing nearby. Worth it in the end! Take a look.
