Osheaga : A field trip for the masses

MONTREAL - If you’re from out of town, good luck getting a hotel room in Montreal this weekend.

“We (just) got the numbers for occupancy, and it’s 98.6 per cent on Saturday night,” said Nick Farkas, director of the Osheaga Music and Arts Festival. “Almost every single room in the city is booked. Try finding a room now, and it’s impossible. There’s nothing left.”

You may have noticed it last year, if you were among the 40,000-per-day attendees as the festival sold out all its days for the first time in its seven-year history: this was major-league stuff. Throngs of people, everywhere, all day and all evening long. It was a far cry from Osheaga’s early editions, some of which made do with a modest 10,000 fans on slow days.

“Last year was just crazy,” Farkas said. “I think the big turning point was getting Eminem (in 2011). Last year it went exponential. Our sales quadrupled over the year before. … The first day that tickets went on sale, I was in Toronto for Canadian Music Week. I saw the ticket counts and I said, ‘This can’t be right. Somebody’s pulled a bunch of tickets for stores or something.’ It didn’t make sense compared to the previous year. Nobody expected it.”

Days away from Osheaga’s eighth edition, which runs Friday to Sunday, Farkas was still coming to terms with just how big his baby has become. Saturday and Sunday have been sold out for a couple of weeks already. As of last Tuesday, there were only about 500 tickets left for opening day. By Thursday, those too were gone.

The festival’s numbers are actually up this year, as the site has been expanded to accommodate 42,500 people each day.

So how did it happen? What put Osheaga over the top? It may well have been Eminem. But previous headliners included mainstream attractions Coldplay and Jack Johnson. Ultimately, it may have come down to what author Malcolm Gladwell calls the tipping point — the moment when something goes from being a thing to a phenomenon, carried by word of mouth, hype and an inexplicable surge of momentum that takes on a life of its own.

“Eminem put us on the map — we got a lot more international notice from Americans and Europeans,” Farkas said, trying to quantify the fest’s success. “That took us to another level in terms of people having heard of (Osheaga).

“Last year, we built on that. We got love right away from (highly influential music website) Pitchfork, which went a long way toward making word spread across the Internet and various social media platforms.

“(News of) the lineup spread really, really, really fast and wide, in terms of page views and hits. We were trending on Twitter across Canada. It had a big impact. I don’t know what exactly happened. The fest always had good credibility, in terms of the perception of the lineup. I think it just finally hit the point where … all of a sudden people were buying tickets. Before, people were talking about it but not coming.”

The biggest difference in attendance has been from tourism. More than 60 per cent of last year’s festivalgoers came from outside the province. Alongside North American rock festivals such as Coachella in California and Lollapalooza in Chicago, Osheaga has become a destination event, drawing music fans from near and far. But Farkas explained his fest’s success has been earned.

“From the start, when we embarked on this, we had five stages and spent a lot of money on production, to optimize the fan and band experience,” he said. “We knew it would never work as just a Montreal or Quebec festival. We had to get people to travel in order to make it viable.”

Last year, the formerly intimate Green Stage was moved to a near

y field, effectively creating a mid-size venue that could accommodate approximately 10,000 people, in contrast to the previous location, which held a fraction of that number. A victim of its own success, the change led to foot-traffic jams as fans migrated back and forth to catch different shows.

The problem was quickly fixed, however, as organizers reacted to feedback on the fly. This year, they have added an extra bridge (leading over a road on the way to the Green Stage area) to ensure a smooth commute, and again moved the stage, which can now accommodate 17,500 people.

“We’re (also) focusing our programming on scheduling acts, so as to avoid massive influxes of people in either direction,” Farkas said. “Adequate flow patterns are something we never thought of before. We were always focusing on the lineup, and making it better than the last year.”

This year’s roster is one of the heaviest-hitting yet, with an impressive depth of talent led by some nifty top draws.

“We’ve got Mumford & Sons (on Sunday), which is one of the biggest acts in the world right now,” Farkas said, “The Cure (Friday), and Beck (Saturday), who we’ve been trying to get for the past eight years. It all fell into place.”

On “Blurred Lines” , Robin Thinke's vision is clear

NEW YORK — At 36, Robin Thicke has been with the same woman, happily, for 20 years. But he has spent his entire creative life looking for love.

"When I think of the artists that I respect the most — Stevie Wonder, John Lennon, Bob Marley, Marvin Gaye — they're all people who found a way to sing about togetherness, about changing the world with love," says Thicke. "That's who I am. I'm a hippie at heart. And that's what most of my songs revolve around: figuring out love, or finding love, or spreading love."

Thicke has also sought affirmation in a more professional sense. "I always wanted legitimacy, or my peers' respect, or my parents' respect, more than I wanted a big radio hit."

Neither of those goals is evident, he admits, on his cheeky, chart-topping single Blurred Lines. And that's just fine with him.

"I started out with very lofty ambitions," Thicke admits, in between sips of double espresso. "The guys I admired got more serious as they got older. John Lennon went from Help! to Working Class Hero; Marvin went from Ain't No Mountain High Enough to What's Going On. I think I'm going the other way. When I watch my new video, I think, 'That's not the guy I set out to be — but you know, that guy may be cooler.' "

Thicke is sitting in the lobby of a chic downtown hotel where he's crashing with his 3-year-old son, Julian Fuego, while plugging his new album, also titled Blurred Lines, out Tuesday. Julian's mom, actress Paula Patton, is off promoting a new film, 2 Guns. "She had a few busy days, so I was like, 'Why don't you come with me, buddy?' He's my best friend."

Patton, whom Thicke met as a teenager and married in 2005, and Julian were a big source of inspiration for Thicke's new material, though not in the way you might expect. There are reflective songs on the album, such as 4 the Rest of My Life, which recalls Thicke's courtship of Patton, and Top of the World, informed by single female friends "who have accomplished amazing things in their careers, but still don't have the love they want."

But Lines' light heart lies in breezier, funkier fare such as the titular smash, modeled after Gaye's Got to Give It Up, and Thicke's follow-up single Give It 2 U, which features Kendrick Lamar. And Thicke isn't being ironic when he attributes that vibe to his experience as a family man.

"What it came down to is that at this point in my life, it's most important for me to be happy," Thicke says. "That means being with my wife and child. And when I'd play new songs for my wife at night, I'd play happy stuff and sadder, deeper stuff — and she'd always want to go back to the happy stuff. So this became a let's-have-fun-and-dance album."

Certainly, there has been a playful element to Thicke's eroticism in the past; his 2009 album Sex Therapy included a double-entendre-laden duet with Jay Z, Meiple. But Thicke insists he's had a tendency to brood that dates back to his childhood.

"The reason I started to write songs was to get rid of some of the loneliness I felt growing up in this big house with busy parents (Alan Thicke and his ex-wife, singer/actress Gloria Loring) and a big brother who had a do-not-disturb sign and skull and crossbones on his door. The piano became how I connected with the world."

Andre Harrell, who has served as an executive producer on all of Thicke's albums, feels that this sensitivity has been an asset for the singer, whose authenticity as a purveyor of romantic soul has made him that rare white artist more popular with urban audiences than on pop radio.

"If you close your eyes and listen to Robin sing, you can't tell that he's white," Harrell says. "I could always tell that Michael McDonald was white, that Justin Timberlake was white. (Thicke) used his vulnerability as a strength, to sing about the ups and downs of relationships, but people didn't know how to define him."

Working on Lines, Thicke was also influenced by newer collaborators, such as Pharrell Williams and will.i.am, both contributors to the album. "I noticed that they don't bring their issues to a song," Thicke says. "With will.i.am and Pharrell, it's all about moving it forward, having a good time, as opposed to me going, 'Sit down, let me tell you my problems.' I took out the melodrama."

Commercial prospects were a factor as well, Thicke admits. His last album, 2011'sLove After War, sold a disappointing 206,000 copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan. "After releasing five albums where I'm pouring everything into my music, and then the last one doesn't sell at all, I thought, am I crazy?"

For veteran music critic Alan Light, Thicke's resilience makes his current success all the more impressive. "The guy's been in the game, a young man's game, for 15 years now. When you hit a peak after that long, it's a testament to something, some vision or bigger idea that sustains you," Light says.

Thicke quips, "Now that I've had a taste of that success, I can see how other artists are like, 'Next one's going to be even bigger!' You think about world domination."

He might consult his son, whom Thicke jokes is "pretty much my A&R (artists and repertoire) director. He's always able to pick the hits, even with my old songs." Julian is already a budding tunesmith himself: "He's written five songs. The latest one is called I Forgot to Sing My Song. That's the new hit. He's very serious about it. I'll tell him my band is coming over to rehearse, and he'll be like, 'No, my guys are coming over, Daddy. We have to work on my new song.' "

The final track on Lines, The Good Life, was included with Julian and his mother in mind. Thicke originally wrote it "about eight years ago, when I was going through my darkest period," but now views its fundamental message — that "life takes you up and down," as he sings — in a brighter light.

"Some of our individual goals still haven't been realized," Thicke says of himself and Patton. "But we have a healthy child. We're madly, crazily in love. That's where I was at, and I wanted to celebrate it. Life is pretty good, you know?"

Sammy Yatim’s family suffering through ‘anger, pain, sorrow’ after teen killed by in Toronto police

SammyYatim’s uncle was still reeling from his nephew’s recent death on Monday but he called on Torontonians to not seek revenge.

A NationalPost reporter spoke to Mejad “Jim” Yatim at his apartment in Mimico.

Mr.Yatim answered his door dressed in a blue, plaid bathrobe. The hallway of the apartment smelled like it had been freshly cleaned but the scent of cigarettes still hung in the air.

He appeared distressed and exhausted. His eyelids looked heavy.

“I can’t deal with this,” he said to the reporter with a slight accent. “It’s a very tough time.”

Mr.Yatim then raised his hands, waving the reporter away.

“Email would be best. Please,” he said.

The apartment was located near the waterfront in an older brick building with flowers planted by the front entrance. On a nearby path, joggers ran by, people walked their dogs and cyclists biked by. A grocery store, daycare and sushi restaurant were close by.

In an email to the National Post Monday afternoon, Mr. Yatim apologized for what he called the “rude” reception at his door.

“Please forgive me. I have been fighting to sort out my emotions,” he said. “Anger, pain, sorrow. All I can do is cry why not me? I probably deserved those bullets more than he did.”

In a second email sent to the National Post sent a few minutes later, Mr. Yatim took a calmer tone. He said he appreciated the concern of Torontonians and Canadians, but asked them not to seek revenge.

“No need for a [lynch mob party] for the officer involved, our family will manage to deal with this situation as we have dealt with other tragedies in our lives,” he said. “We do not need our [pound of flesh].”

He said he did not expect others to understand this call for non-violence.

“For others it might seem outrageous; however for my family the ultimate price has been paid,” he said. “Nothing said or done will bring our Sammy back.”

Mr.Yatim said his family has suffered many misfortunes before and Sammy’s death is yet another they will have to live with.

He added that this is a tragedy to be learned from. “It is up to the living to decide what the future should be,” he said.

In the meantime, while the public demands answers regarding how this incident could have occurred, the Yatim family strives to remember Sammy as he was in life.

“Whatever people might pontificate on this situation, Sammy will always be Sammy to us and we will always have him in our hearts,” he said.

The Royal Baby was born and it's a boy!

Get ready for a 62-gun salute, watch the water in the fountains turn blue, let the fireworks and street parties commence: The royal baby has arrived, and it's a boy.

PrinceWilliam and Duchess Kate's first baby, a future monarch, was born today at 4:24 pm local time in London's private wing of St. Mary'sHospital, the palace announced. The announcement said the baby weighed 8 pounds, 6 ounces, and William was present for the birth.

In a statement, Prince William said: "We could not be happier."

Mother and baby were both doing well, the announcement added. The name was not immediately announced. There's a chance it could be announced as early as Tuesday, but it's also possible it may not be known for some days.

The news was supposed to be first announced in the traditional manner, on fancy paper with a Buckingham Palace letterhead on a gilded easel at the palace front gates. Instead, it went out by electronic press release first, to the royal Twitter feed and websites, and then proclaimed from every TV and computer screen in the country.

After that, the framed announcement went up on the easel at the gates, watched and cheered by a growing crowd despite what was being called the hottest day in London in years.

But the baby's great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, was the first to get the news from her grandson, by encrypted phone to the palace, and just in time, too. She's scheduled to leave on her annual vacation at her Balmoral estate in Scotland at the end of this week.

The palace announcement said the royal family, including the queen's husband, Prince Philip, the baby's grandfather, Prince Charles the Prince of Wales, his wife, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, and William's brother, Prince Harry, and other family members have been notified and are "delighted."

Prince Charles issued a statement saying he and Camilla are "overjoyed" and "thrilled" for the couple. "Grandparenthood is a unique moment in anyone's life, as countless kind people have told me in recent months, so I am enormously proud and happy to be a grandfather for the first time and we are eagerly looking forward to seeing the baby in the near future," the first-in-line to the throne said.

Prime Minister David Cameron came out of Number 10 to hail the "wonderfulnews" and the "important moment in the life of the nation."

President Obama and first lady Michelle Obama congratulated the couple on "the joyous occasion" of the birth.

"We wish them all the happiness and blessings parenthood brings," the Obamas said in a written statement. "The child enters the world at a time of promise and opportunity for our two nations. Given the special relationship between us, the American people are pleased to join with the people of the United Kingdom as they celebrate the birth of the young prince."

In a separate message posted on Twitter, Mrs. Obama said: "Being a parent is the best job of all."

Speaking of Twitter, the company announced late Monday that more than 2 million tweets about the royal baby were sent out starting when Duchess Kate checked into the hospital early in the morning, reaching a royal-baby buzz peak of about 25,300 tweets per minute.

There was no word yet on whether Kate's mother and younger sister, Carole and Pippa Middleton, 29, were at the hospital for the birth.

The duchess was expected to spend at least one night overnight at the hospital, but it's possible she and William and the baby will emerge from the hospital as soon as today for the customary pose before the media, after three weeks of waiting, outside the hospital.

The birth of the royal baby was a model of the careful blend of traditional and modern exemplified by this royal couple in the dozen years they've been a couple. Plans call for a multi-gun salute near Buckingham Palace, probably on Tuesday, blue water running in the fountains, blue lights at the top of iconic buildings, fireworks and street celebrations throughout the land.

The baby arrives just short of 27 months since William and Kate were married in a spectacular ceremony at Westminster Abbey on April 29,2011. The nine months of her pregnancy have been chronicled by the British and world media with excruciating detail and growing excitement about the first royal heir to be born in 31 years, since William himself was born to Prince Charles and Princess Diana.

(In fact, the last time the easel-and-note was used to announce a royal birth was for William.)

The baby moves immediately to third in line to the throne, behind fatherWilliam and grandfather Charles. The queen is 87 and celebrating her 61st year on the throne.

The past few weeks saw rising royal-baby fever in Britain, with hopes high that the birth would provide an estimated $360 million boost in the flat British economy. Meanwhile, royal-baby doodads, such as Will and Kate masks, poured into shops for use at the street parties soon to break out all over the country.

The baby arrived a little late , based on a mid-July due date. Unlike the majority of births in Britain, no one, not even the parents, knew the sex of the baby until the birth.

Dennis Farina, Detective in Life and TV, Dies at 69

DennisFarina, who spent 20 years as a police officer in Chicago before he began patrolling Hollywood as a character actor, starring as a detective on the television shows “Law & Order” and “CrimeStory” and sometimes crossing into crime, as he did in the movie “Get Shorty,” died on Monday in Scottsdale, Ariz. He was 69.

His publicist, Lori De Waal, announced the death. She said he had recently had a blood clot in his lung.

Mr.Farina eventually had a longer career as an actor than he did in law enforcement, infusing dozens of roles with world-weary credibility and a convincing nexus of nose and mustache.

He had been working as a detective in a special burglary unit in Chicago when a mutual friend introduced him to the director Michael Mann, who was making his first feature film, “Thief.” Mr. Farina was initially a consultant for the movie before being given a small role as a crime boss’s enforcer. The film, which starred James Caan, was released in 1981.

For several years afterward, Mr. Farina juggled his police job with local theater roles and appearances in movies and television shows. He was often cast by Mr. Mann, including in several episodes of his hit show “Miami Vice.”

Mr.Farina quit police work after Mr. Mann cast him in 1986 in the NBC series “Crime Story” as Lt. Mike Torello, a detective who pursues a Chicago mobster to Las Vegas. “Crime Story” was well regarded by critics but lasted just two seasons.

Mr. Farina’s work in “Crime Story” led to a role in the 1986 film “Manhunter,” which Mr. Mann also directed. In 1988 Mr. Farina appeared in the film “Midnight Run” and in 1998 in Steven Spielberg’s World War II epic, “Saving Private Ryan.”

One of his most notable characters was the mobster Ray (Bones) Barboni in the 1995 film “Get Shorty,” based on the novel by Elmore Leonard. The movie, which also starred John Travolta, Gene Hackman, Rene Russo and Danny DeVito, was a critical and commercial success; Janet Maslin, writing in The New York Times, called Mr. Farina’s work “a funny deadpan performance.”

The quality of roles he accepted declined for a time after “Get Shorty” — he appeared in a short-lived sitcom on NBC, “ In-Laws,” and in several disappointing films, including “Stealing Harvard” — but his fortunes improved in 2004, when he was cast as the dapper detective Joe Fontana on “Law & Order.”

In a radio interview several years ago, Mr. Farina said his character on that show was “firm but fair” and “took advantage of every inch that he could, and if that didn’t work sometimes maybe he had to stretch things a little.”

Mr. Farina said he was honored to be on the show, one of the longest-running in television history, but was also amused, as a former detective, by the increasing number of programs that emphasized the roles of scientists in solving crimes.

“While forensics plays a huge part in law enforcement nowadays, you still need the foot soldiers,” he told The Times in 2004. “You still need the guy who can knock on the door, you still need the guy who can write down the license plate numbers.”

In 2012, Mr. Farina appeared on the short-lived HBO series “Luck” as a henchman to a horse-racing gambler played by Dustin Hoffman. The show, which had its premiere in 2012, ceased filming in March after three horses died during production.

He most recently appeared on the Fox comedy “New Girl” and was in two movies tentatively scheduled for release this year, “Authors Anonymous” and “Lucky Stiff.”

Mr. Farina was born on Feb. 29, 1944, in Chicago. His survivors include his longtime companion, Marianne Cahill; three sons, Dennis Jr., Michael and Joseph, and six grandchildren. His first marriage ended in divorce.

Even after Mr. Farina left the Chicago Police Department in the mid-1980s, he continued to live in his hometown, and the characters he played were often from Chicago even if a show or movie was set elsewhere. The Chicago police superintendent, Garry F. McCarthy, said in a statement on Monday that Mr. Farina was “a true-blue Chicago character” who “never forgot where he came from.”

Mr.Farina said as much himself.

“My personality was formed by Chicago,“ he told Cigar Aficionado magazine in 1999. “It’s very American, very straightforward. If you can’t find it, or make it there, you won’t make it anywhere. It’s a very honest place.”

Dexter Recaps

This week Dr. Vogel continued to work her dark creepy magic on Dexter and Debra, trying to get them to accept their past deeds and feel generally okay about mercilessly killing people. The episode, aptly titled "Scar Tissue," is basically one big therapy session, climaxing with Debra taking her treatment into her own hands and Dexter having a breakthrough while trying to murder The Brain Surgeon.

With our Comic-Con coverage on the front burner this weekend (here's what happened at the Dexter panel), we're going to keep this recap short and bittersweet. Here's 8 things we learned Sunday night:

1. Quinn passed the sergeants test: In the 85th percentile, no less. We're surprised too. "I've never been this happy to get back a positive test," Quinn says. Yet deputy chief Matthews is putting pressure on Batista to give the stripes to Miller instead. Something about Miller scoring higher -- not to mention seeming like a competent professional who isn't about to bury her face in strippers and booze on any given weekend. Sorry Quinn, we're siding with Matthews on this one.

2. The Big Bad is a cable TV installer. Dex snooped around the house of Yates, one of Vogel's former patients who now is a "bundler." And here we thought it doesn't take a brain surgeon to work at a cable company (sorry). Not only has he had brain surgery himself at Dr. Vogel's recommendation (a little detail that you would think would have sprung to mind sooner for Dr. Vogel), but he also keeps an assortment of women's shoes in his home taken from his victims (Dexter Head-Smacking Implausibility of the Week Alert: If Yates is so paranoid that he's installed cameras all through his house, why wouldn't he at least keep his collection of hugely incriminating footwear in his secret rooms instead of in his regular closet?). Yates finds out Dex and Vogel are onto him and skips town, leaving behind only a half-dead victim and a diagram showing how he kills people in case anybody searching his house wasn't 100 percent certain of his guilt.

3. Dexter has a cute neighbor. Hi Cassie. Run Cassie. Seriously, just stay out of this show, it's bad news. You seem entirely too normal to be a love interest for Dexter Morgan.

4. Masuka has a daughter! A college-age hottie shows up at Miami Metro and Vince is startled to learn she's his daughter -- and she even has the same laugh. This raises a few questions: Would a woman really pick Masuka out of the sperm donor catalog and go "That one!"? And can kids from sperm donors really show up on their biological parent's doorstep like that? (Seeing conflicting things online, but it sounds like, yes, it is possible if Masuka chose to be an open donor). Another thought: What if Masuka and his daughter had met in a bar a month ago? ... Yeah, scary right? Accidental incest is one of the dangers of sperm donation, as pointed out by no less a source than Cracked.com.

5. Deb's boss Elway is boring the s--t out of me. I don't think I need to elaborate on this.

6. Quinn is hung up on Debra and isn't that into Jamie. How many hints does Batista's little sister need? Now Quinn is beating up cops at a bar restaurant to defend his ex-gf's honor while he's on a date with Jamie. And to us viewers his feelings are even more obvious when he tells Debra "things are so easy with you, with Jamie things keep getting tripped up." As if things are not getting tripped up becauseof his longing for his ex-girlfriend.

7. Dexter has emotions (if muted). There was a lot of back and forth on this between Dexter and Dr. "Trust me you're dead inside" Vogel. Dex discovers when Yates uses his dying father as a distraction to escape getting caught that he could never use a family member in such a fashion and therefore Vogel is wrong about him. Granted, Dexter is setting the bar pretty low for himself, but we're siding with him anyway -- Dexter knows his feelings and seems pretty certain about them. Yet when it comes to Debra, the doctor might be right that---

8. Debra will always choose Dexter.After being haunted by the idea that she should have shot Dexter last season, Vogel helps her realize that she would still make the same choice today. She learns this in a pretty dramatic fashion after Dexter admits during their drive that their father killed himself due to guilt over Dex's slayings. She turns into a literal Dark Passenger for Dexter by grabbing the wheel driving the car into a lake (the crash was pretty great). Debra is rescued by a fisherman, then goes back and pulls out an unconscious Dexter rather than letting him die. (I'm pretty sure it's not a spoiler to reveal that Dexter didn't just die here in the fourth episode of the final season).
