SUPPORT THE RIO x PROTEST CHRISTY CLARK

Corinne Lea and The RIO Theatre have had enough! It’s time to crack down on the powers that be and get the BC liquor laws up to par with the modern age. This Thursday, everyone is invited down to Christy Clark’s office and together we will scream…

IS Christy Clark’s JOBS PLAN To put Rio Staff out of work?

Today the LCLB has threatened to cancel the Rio’s Liquor license if we try to show any films in the evening without alcohol. Even though we’ve never had even one single issue with alcohol service.

This is the last straw the LCLB has forced the Rio to cancel all its film programming except for MATINEES! That was their BIG fix they told everyone they removed the Ban on movies and all we can do is show matinees!! We still can’t show our movies unless we set a permanent schedule for movies which is impossible to do!

WE’RE MAD AS HELL AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!

I’ve got A JOB’S PLAN to save the RIO! The request is simple:
Just let multi media venues Lock up their alcohol and show movies without bar service. Why is that so hard to do? There is NO public safety issue if there is no alcohol!

DAY IN THE LIFE with SonReal x VancityBuzz.com

sonreal-vancitybuzz_02

Film maker Richie McFly and Photographer Patrick Leung got down with SonReal and Co. for a session at their East Vancouver home as featured by VancityBuzz. Here’s what Goodlife manager, Byron Wilson, had to say:

Somewhere in East Van, there’s a spot a bunch of dudes call eighteen fifty-one. Not only is this the address that these guys call home, but it is literally a haven for their creative lifestyle. Being in this house for close to four years, I’ve seen a few people come and go, but over the years we’ve managed to lock in some serious talent. For the most part, there are two sides to 1851, the rap shit, and the skate shit. All under one roof resides the likes of SonReal, DJ Rich-A, myself (SonReal’s manager), Dane Collison (Team manager at Supra Distribution), Corey Klim (Circa, Fourstar, AntiHero) and Nick “Nugget” Moore (Fourstar, Converse, REAL). Also sharing the same address are my dudes, L-Train (Public Speaker) and Murray (Lives in the closet). Commonly mistaken for a “party house”, 1851 has shaped every one of these dudes, including myself, into who they are and who they strive to be. Obviously the cheap rent helps, but more so the constant drive and hard work that everyone that lives here displays. We all feed off each other. There’s no half stepping at 1851, we take leaps and bounds up in this bitch!
