More on Russell Peters

Born in Toronto, Canada and steadily making his way to the top of the heap in the United States, Russell Peters is already a superstar in much of the world – selling out theatres and arenas from London to Sydney to Los Angeles. In 2008 he joined the exclusive ranks of comedians who have headlined and sold-out Madison Square Garden, certainly the first comic of South Asian heritage to do so. In Hollywood, the industry refers to this phenomenon as ‘The Legend of Russell Peters’. His success – without a network sitcom, hit movie, regular television presence or mainstream media attention – is practically unprecedented. With over 30 million hits on Youtube and sales of over 250,000 units of his dvds – Outsourced and Red, White and Brown, Peters’ popularity is based on his relationship with audiences that no one else is talking to. His comedy is rooted in the experiences of a second-generation son of South Asian parents in a western world.

Less a classic joke-telling comic than a humourist in the tradition of George Carlin, Peters uses observations on the subjects of race, class and culture to illuminate human shortcomings with the sizzling accuracy of a well-aimed laser. Interacting with the audience, throwing out one-liners and engaging in impromptu dialogue with fans, he owns the stage and holds the audience in the palm of his hand. His quick wit and genius at discerning and mimicking the most subtle distinctions in accents turns his performances into love affairs with his appreciative audiences. During his now 20 years as a professional comic, he has also amassed credits including a recurring role on a Canadian sitcom; his own BBC chat show Network East Late, and a number of feature films including Quarterlife Crisis and most recently The Love Child of Andy Warhol and Yoko Ono. His latest special, Red, White and Brown was broadcast on Showtime – for whom he recently produced Russell Peters Presents. His 2006 comedy special Outsourced was broadcast on Comedy Central. He’s also appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, Chelsea Lately and Def Comedy Jam.

FREE.99 :: Software Essentials :: Vital, Powerful and FREE

Edo — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 06:39:47 +0000

In all my years of existence, I’ve learned that there are only a few things in life I’d ever want to pay full price for – Food, Travel expenses, and a pair of Diesel Jeans. As a guideline, if I intend to make any sort of purchase and it just so happens to not fall within these 3 categories, chances are I’ll be looking for a bargain. As the mantra goes, “the less you spend, the more you keep.” Ya, like keeping more money so I can spend more of it on travelling, food, and those Diesel jeans. Does that make me a cheapskate? Perhaps, but you never know how far your dollar can stretch if you don’t take the time to look for the best deals. And if any of those deals happen to be free, then well…that’s the best deal of all!

Edo — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 07:08:14 +0000

Conchita Campos is releasing her new album, No One Really Knows. And after listening to her latest single, “Now and Then,” I’m eager to hear more. Ever since So It Goes and her Collaboration w/ Taiyo Na and Magnetic North, I’ve been a fan. Her sound is soulfully soothing and her music just gives off that HauteAzifug vibe.

She’ll be performing alongside The Park, w/ guest performances by Dirty Boots and The Hoarsemen. Special guests include Taiyo Na, Kice of Course, Jake Lefco, Core Rhythm, 3rd Party, and Sonny Maze. Live paintings will be the TYS Collective & Marthalicia. So if you happen to be in New York, check it out! For more information, go to Conchita Campos’ website.

Just For Kicks :: Sneakers Keep Passing Me By

Edo — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 19:35:05 +0000

Nike Air Max 95 Classic

Nike Air Jordan 11

Sometimes I wish I would’ve spent my money on these kicks instead of all those comic books, trading cards, He-Man toys and Nintendo games I collected when growing up. Uh, maybe not.

But these kicks are still DopeAzifug. Does anyone have access to a Time Machine?

[More to come as I find them. Any suggestions?]

Oh, WoW! A Pet Store!

Edo — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 17:32:15 +0000

Update: It appears the Pet Store link is not working. Interesting…

You know how much I # WoW. The raids, instances, gear, auctions, and comradarie; I # all that. So when I found out that the Blizzard Store has just put up two in-game pets for REAL-MONEY on sale, for use in the VIRTUAL World of Warcraft (WoW) realm, I was stoked. It’s the first time Blizzard has made this kind of service available. At the cost of $10 per pet…

For many folks, this is no big deal. There are a lot of games out today that give you the option of spending your cold-hard cash for in-game currency, goods and other services. So why should WoW be any different? Well, aside from the $15 a month I spend on WoW membership, what’s another $10, right? Before you know it, we’ll all have the chance to parade around in our Tier 8 gear with the hautest pets in tow. Just shell out the cash at the Blizzard Store! /w00t! (Actually, this is kind of a touchy subject. And I would have to agree. Check out the banter betwen the fanboys here). Regardless of how I, or how many others feel for that matter, these pets are actually CoolAzifug.

The two new non-combat pets are (as quoted from store):

Lil’ K.T. (pictured left) :: What Lil’ K.T. lacks in size, he more than makes up for in sheer malicious intensity. Watch with misplaced pride as he randomly freezes critters and laughs maniacally at your vanquished PvP foes. Once activated, this World of Warcraft in-game pet key applies to all present and future characters on a single World of Warcraft license

Pandaren Monk (pictured right) :: Possessing the diplomatic humbleness common to his reclusive race, the Pandaren Monk accompanies you on your journeys throughout Azeroth, returning any /bows he receives from other players. Half of the proceeds to every Pandaren Monk purchased through December 31, 2009 will be donated to the Make-a-Wish Foundation, further demonstrating his benevolent nature (though, in idle moments, he may still practice his Kung Fu moves). Once activated, this World of Warcraft in-game pet key applies to all present and future characters on a single World of Warcraft license.

Again, they run $10 each.
