    In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

    Shook hands with this beautiful man in the washroom of a bar in Vancouver when Sleepercar played there. He was gracious and kind when I told him that he’s a big musical inspiration to me. It was a brief encounter but I’ll always remember it. Love ya Jim

      Sparta was just here with Moneen at Commodore and it was the best night ever reminiscing with these legends.

    Met him in SD, one of the nicest and most humble people. Big ATDI, Sparta, Sleepercar fan.

      well, he's not very outspoken and it seems that he's avoided the spotlight especially in recent years, he probably could be on a hundred different podcasts and interviews but he seems pretty old school, there's probably a bunch of projects he's done that no one knows about

    I just came across an AMA Jim did on reddit a while back and was struck but what a nice...just, good guy he seemed. And this talk just confirms it.
    Been a fan of Sparta and ATDI but never knew much about them apart from a few interviews. Can't speak for other the members of those bands, but Jim Ward seems like a really solid dude.

      Love how he said in the beginning that he’s way more comfortable singing and playing in front of thousands of people than he is talking in front of a small group of people….
