Show tracks Sat. May 8/10

I am discovering that I don't adapt to new technologies well. More so when the new technologies aren't very user friendly. I hope this isn't a sign of getting old. Because I know my eyesight reminds me of that almost everyday...lol

So let's say that the next episode of Rewind! will be the American Memorial holiday weekend. I know that coincides with the Detroit Electronic Music Fest but I think it will give an option for people who don't like or participate in that weekend for some quality music. So mark that date on your calendars, Cowboys & Indies Rewind! Sat. May 29/10

Show tracks for Sat. Apr. 17/10 Record Store Day

To celebrate we played a bunch of tracks that Scott & I had discovered (been exposed to) while working in 2 of Windsor's finest independent record stores. The show resembled a Rewind! show except for the fact that were new exclusive Record Store tracks from Blur and The Cribs. The Editors made it to impossible for the masses to enjoy their exclusive. I guess their pleased with only a 1000 people hearing their track. The show could have gone on for hours. But once again we ran out of time.
