This is the first broadcast after the fall back part of Daylight's Savings and the women takeover for the program with hosts Chloe, Zoe, Sarde, and Marjie. There was some technical glitches that hampered the broadcast at the beginning but once the bugs got worked out the programming was in depth and fun and the banter spanned serious to motivational in on and off air forums. And given that Not Dead yet is right around the corner there was a phone interview with Nay and Lauren from La Misma. You can hear the show on the above player or download it here.

Radio - Sunday, May 18th, 2014

NASH THE SLASH passed away last week. I found out about his passing in an editorial piece on Q. Here and Now also did a look back at Nash following it with the FM hit 'Phasors on Stun'. That was a song I knew very well having heard it many times on FM Radio. It was also a song that took me back to summer camp. A counsellor there had turned me onto FM. I would soon find out about NASH THE SLASH on after school video shows with the video for "Dead Man's Curve" and "Dopes on the Water". I went to the first Police Picnic where NASH THE SLASH unceremoniously had the plug pulled on him. The only Canadian act to get yanked from the stage in some Gong show fashion like he was some kind of a novelty act, which he was sort of. A mummy impersonator in top hat and white tails that played the electric violin and a few other instruments that includes a glockenspiel. But he was more than that. He was a guy who inspired Gary Numan, one of the first to start an independent label known as Cut Throat records and who sued Pepsi and won. I got to meet NASH THE SLASH on the air once. Jonzo from Mods 'n Rockers arranged for him to come in and we did a full on interview. It was an honour to meet this pioneer of the Toronto punk scene. I learned of his soundscaping to silent films like Nosferatu at places like the Roxy Theatre. He was doing a regular Halloween gig at a club on Yonge Street. Someone posted up a flyer for a Valentine's week massacre set of shows at the Edge. He was into gimmicks but there is no denying that he was a groundbreaker when it comes to punk in this city.  So we started off the show with some NASH THE SLASH material mixed together. 

Here is an MP3 for the show.

Tonight's demo feature is a new band from Vancouver called Write Off. Write Off features former members of Strain, Contessa, Deadsue and many others. Recently in MRR the band was likened to No Comment for how fast and short the songs are, but what was missed was just how heavy the band sounds. The band features older guys in the scene who will only play all ages shows which remembers how tough it was for them when they were kids to get to see shows. It is admirable to see a band take a stand like that these days.
