On tonight’s show we have a lot of diverse programs and lots of new material. It was quite the week in terms of current events, but I don’t have much to tie into that this week so you get a week off from our commentary. What you will get is a set inspired by Chris on an interesting panel that he has been sitting on called “What Are you Listening to?”. Andre has a set of bands inspired by shows as of recent. I have a mix of interesting covers of bands like the Epileptics, new stuff by Schwach, a soon to be released song by the Vapids, and new archival releases by the Slinkees. Tonight’s demo feature is the new release by OLD which is a band that Brian Taylor from Youth Youth Youth has put together. But Chris has really outdone himself this week with two sets of new material and we are starting off the show with one of them.
