Radio - Sunday August 14th, 2022

On tonight’s show, we have some new material, some old material, and a demo feature for CRISIS PARTY, but up first a tribute to Gord Lewis to mark his passing. All the tributes I have read talk about what a nice and kind person Gord Lewis was. On January 28th, 2007, TEENAGE HEAD played our show and Greg Dick did this in depth interview with them. We are going to play clips from that interview and intersperse it with some Teenage Head classics. We’re going to start out with where the band got started. You can download the show here.
