Show tracks for Sat. Jan. 22/11

I'm finding how much we rely on computers. You only notice it when you don't have one. Managed to sort out all the new releases. I really miss buying new records/cd singles. It was so much fun going to the store on new release day and getting a handful of new singles. Indeed, the digital age is upon us. I know, I'm a bit slow on the uptake sometimes...lol
So, loads of new stuff this week. Very excited about the new Glasvegas and Joy Formidable. Glad to see a new single from The Minnaars, I was a huge fan of Tired Irie. Ah hell, who am I kidding not a weak track in the show tonight, if I do say so myself...lol

Show tracks for Sat. Jan. 15/11

First show for the new year after the holiday festivities and my computer goes all to hell. F-in thing...where's my sledgehammer? So that messed up some of the new releases for tonight's show. So they will be played next week.
We started the show off with a couple of tributes. Firstly, Ari Up's birthday is Monday. We lost her too earlier to cancer last October. Secondly, we lost Trish Keenan, lead singer of Broadcast, yesterday from complications due to pneumonia. Both talented ladies are gone to soon.
