Dirty Vegas produced a great dance track several years ago, Days Go By. I overheard this acoustic version of it today and had to share. It’s the norm now to hear a pop track remixed into a dance track, but Dirty Vegas released this “acoustic” version of their original dance track.
Chef, author of Kitchen Confidential and host of The Travel Channel’s No Reservations, Anthony Bourdain, will visit Massey Hall for one night only. Bourdain will spend the evening sharing candid, and often hysterical, insights about his life’s work and travels including an open question and answer session with the audience. Following the release of his much anticipated new book, Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook (Released nationally on June 8, 2010 by Ecco), Bourdain will have plenty of new stories to share for all those in attendance.
Bourdain has been dubbed “the bad boy of cuisine” for his rock star look and blunt observations about the world of restaurants, chefs and cooking. Bourdain, the honorary Chef-At-Large at New York’s famed bistro Les Halles, is the author of the bestselling Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly, a candid, hysterical, and sometimes shocking portrait of life in restaurant kitchens that has been translated into over 28 languages. His book, A Cook’s Tour, published in conjunction with his series on the Food Network, was also a bestseller in the U.S. and the U.K.
Copies of Bourdain’s new book, Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook, along with other titles from his back catalog will be available for purchase on site.
