As I recall, my parents didn't think it was a good idea for my big brother to take me to the show, but he did and I'm glad I went.

It was September of 1976. I was in grade 6, having just turned 11 years old. My 24-year-old brother took me and a friend to see one of the hottest acts in rock 'n roll at Regina's Exhibition Stadium.

A band called Mahogony Rush opened up and warmed us up for Nazareth. What a show it was! I'd never experienced anything like that before. I thought they were going to blow the roof off the place.

This has to be one of the most overused phrases in history. And it NEVER gets the meaning across that you want it to.

If at any point you're using the phrase 'no offense, but...' it's almost 100% guaranteed you absolutely mean offense, but by putting this simple phrase in front it's supposed to act as some sort of shield. I never really understood that. If you want to say something you know is offensive, why try to cover it up? Just go with it. It's your opinion, right?

May’s Classroom of the Month took the Country 104.9 crew to Norman Carter Elementary School, where Ms. McJannet’s Grade 5 class enjoyed pizza from Jack’s Pizza in Unity and a few rounds of games. Students showed off their knowledge of current events and flexed their drawing skills on new hand-held whiteboards, all while guessing how much pizza they could eat.

Airdronians looking for their next adventure, or just a relaxing escape, can now bid on unforgettable travel experiences, all while supporting Canadian businesses.
