Ruby Slippers Mar 28 7-8 pm



Hey everybody,

This week is a bit of a jumble, got a list together and then found out two of Toronto's own were playing this Friday and deserved a spot on the show too! Womb and Mother Leads will be at the Bovine at 9 pm, admission $6, so once you are finished listening to the show, head on over!

Anyway, I will try and squeeze them in somewhere, and amend the playlist as things roll along!

Here's what's what so far
I Found A Reason ... VHS or Beta (FINALLY made the list)
Crawlersout ... Purity Ring *
Star Tropics ... Ocean City Defender *

Hey everybody,

Well, will you look at that! MORE SNOW! I am shocked.
But despite the general funk around here, the show must go on, and I gotta say, the longer I worked on this list, the better I felt. Guess that's why music is like breathing, can't really exist without either one.

Here it is, the Snow Day Special:

Oh Emily ... Jukebox the Ghost

Saturday Night ... Joy Classic
I've Got A Crush on Wendy Mesley ... Show Business Giants  *
Need you Around ... Smoking Popes
Peroxide Suicide ... The Lorrains *

And the Mood Changes ... Sandbox *
Seconds ... Little Dragon
Train in Vain ... The Clash
Local Boy In The Photograph ... Stereophonics
She Kissed Me (It Felt Like a Hit) ... Spiritualized
There She Goes My Beautiful World... Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds

Off to shovel.

Thanks for listening.
