"Before We Arrive: The Story Of The Weber Brothers" Music Documentary

Peterborough's The Weber Brothers have been together for 15 years, performing many coast to coast tours. Like any band, they have gone through ups and downs.

A documentary six years in the works on the band, Before We Arrive: The Story Of The Weber Brothers, is now in post-production. It's directed and produced by Rob Viscardis, and the producer/directory of photography is Jeremy Blair Kelly.

The team behind the doc are launching a crowdfunding campaign to go towards their post­production budget.

For The Weber Brothers, what matters most in their rollercoaster ride of being a band is not fame, fortune, or mainstream success. It's simply about making music. Something this upcoming documentary explores.

"Before We Arrive" is a culmination of events, performances and interviews that have been collected over the past decade and a half from The Weber Brothers’ career.  

Watch the teaser trailer below for the doc, which is slated for release later this year...

The Silver Bean Has A Beach Right Now

It's not permanent, but nonetheless neat stuff at The Silver Beach, er, Bean right now.

"Crazy, eh? We have a beach!," Silver Bean owner Andrea VanDerHerberg tells PTBOCanada. "It has happened other years as well. They bring the water level really low because they'll let a lot more water in soon and believe it or not it might still flood."

[UPDATE: It seems the beach is now gone already, as the water has risen several feet.]

@ptbo_canada have you see the new beach at Silver Bean? :p

Here Is A Hawk Trying To Drive A Pontiac Vibe

Niki Allday looking a little perplexed (it's no wonder)

The Hawk in control

Christina Abbott and Niki Allday found a hawk with a broken wing on the side of the road on Highway 7 North near Peterborough, and put the injured bird in a box in the back of Niki's Pontiac Vibe while figuring out where to bring it to get medical attention.

It seems the hawk now wants to drive the car itself to the hospital. It escaped the box and landed on the steering wheel.

@Ptbo_Canada NEED YOUR HELP! @NikiAlldayx found a #Hawk with a broken wing, have him in a box now Help us save him!! pic.twitter.com/345V6xurIA

Christina Abbott tells PTBOCanada they are now enroute to Champlain Animal Hospital to get the hawk checked out.

"This is insane," she tells us. "I'm currently in the back seat making sure he doesn't escape. And the police pulled us over. Because I'm not wearing a seal belt. Cause I was hunched over the back trying to keep the hawk from escaping. LMAO."

The police let her go without a ticket though. "The officer told me to put my seat belt on or I'm going to end up like the hawk."

We'll keep you posted on their crazy day, and the hawk's progress in its treatment and rehabilitation.

[***UPDATE: Sad news, Christina tells us the hospital has determined it has to put the bird down due to its injury. His wing is too broken to fly again. Christina and Niki should be commended for their efforts in trying to save this bird. They named the bird Scott Young, here's why.]

This hawk has a vibe
