Jeesh, what else could go wrong? lol Last week technical difficulties prevented the lp session. This week the football game ran really late causing a much shorter than show than I wanted or expected.. Ah well, such is the life in college radio.

So many albums so little time. September is always a huge release month. This was the lp session show. We took a look at 7 albums. There were a few new singles thrown in for good measure. Next week's show may resemble this show, we'll see what the week brings.

Show tracks for Sat. Sept. 11/10

A couple quick notes to start, there were massive technical problems at CJAM for this show. The computer network was down which affected the show. There was no lp session or saved track listing available after the show. I tried my best to reconstruct it from memory (but that's not what it used to be...lol).
I think I remembered it all (jeesh I'm getting old! lol).
In fact, at the time this was written after the show, the CJAM website was not available either. So I hope the
show will be available for download at a later time when the problems are fixed.
Anyways, sorry about all this. I hope you get to hear the show.

Show tracks for Sat. Sept. 4/10

I received a note in the suggestion box this week...lol...that said it would be easier to read the tracklist if I separated it up into the actual sets so you could follow along at home. So I figured I would give it a try and see how you all liked it. I also made note of the Canadian Content by adding a little "(cc)" after the selections in question.
I hope you liked the show. Join me again next week, same indie place...same indie time!
