CBC host of Q, Jian Ghomeshi, will be giving a talk at the Dalhousie House of Fries…. I mean McCain Arts & Social Science Bulding across from the Student Union Building on University Avenue. I’m looking forward to grabbing one of the free 500 seats, if there isn’t a flood of students, to hear what Jian has to say about “the arts in Canada, new media, and the role of live radio in an iPod world” which he plans to speak about.
I’d not followed Q on any regular basis, actually I can’t even recall when I last heard or saw him on CBC but have been regularly following his QTV video podcast via iTunes and enjoying it a great deal.
Jian will be taping a live show tonite, Thursday Oct 23, at the Sir James Dunn Theatre which seats only 170 people. (Doors open at 6:15, show at 7:00, seats first come, first served)
His lecture Friday runs 1:30-2:30 in the McCain Building, seating 500, also free.
