March: 9 1/2 Months


Nine months ago, the first issue of V-Rag hit the stands in Vancouver. In that time, I could have had a baby (maybe not physically), and that's how this publication has felt. Month after month, we got better and more mature, and although we're still a very young magazine, I'm proud of the little arts & culture rag that could. Continuing the trend of high profile features, we're excited to have an exclusive interview with British electro-pop sensation Little Boots! Not only did she release my favourite pop album of 2009, Hands, but she's extending her North American tour to include Vancouver, Seattle, Portland, San Francisco and L.A. this month. Lucky us!

Also featured this month, home-grown stars Team Canada DJ's chat with us about their whirlwind month of being the soundtrack to the 2010 Winter Olympics here in Vancouver and in Whistler. And speaking of Whistler, it's time to get your boots and bindings on and head up for WinterPRIDE 2010! We have the ultimate guide to all the parties and events that you don't want to miss. March also marks our biggest photo shoot ever, with the boys of Gay Top Model and photographer Ian Sheh. Check out their apres-ski apparel, choose who your favourite is, and don't forget to attend the finale on April 1 at Celebrities! It'll be a great show that will benefit the Friends For Life Society. Joan-E will remind you just why that's so important in this month's Joan-E's Rag, along with our other regulars, music and movie reviews, and the debut of The Third Kind by Justin Meisner. Have fun, and play safe in the snow... If you can find any.
