Love Cuts have been rising in popularity and getting lots of praise from music lovers from all over Canada. Kaity McWhinney (vocals,guitar), Cheryl Carpenter (drums) and Tracey Vath (vocals, bass) of local band Love Cuts joined me in studio at CITR 101.9 FM for their first interview ever! They even have fans in Japan! Listen to the podcast.

Some say that God was born out of the ejaculation of another god, a being that was more god or “goder” than him. That was the Big Bang explained by some wako porno creationists. There are other wacos that believe the Earth is just like 20,000 or so years old. That just corroborates the theory of evolution and demonstrates that the human brain is not very evolved yet, but will it be enough time to perfection our computer inside our skulls? The believers of the “holy” book now are afraid because the birds fell from the sky and the fish died in the ocean. Apolcalyptic times my friends. Destruction. We started the show with garage pre punk band from 65 We also played some of the best bands of 2010 from Vancouver according to this website.

This show was dedicated to the metal scene as we had Sinister Black as out special guests saying goodbye to the old year with a bang! The list pretty much says it all. The members of Sinister Black include Wayne Powell on the vocals and guitar, Gordzilla on the bass and Ron Pistell on the drums. These guys are very energetic and their style is not so much metal, it is a hybrid cross between punk and heavy rock, but you can also hear Sonic Youth as an influence, the result of the band is loud, fast and furious music.

The 2010 edition of Shindig the famous CiTR contest has ended last night with the victory of the Vancouver folk rock band The Oh Wells defeating favourites the WIZERDZ and the Crystal Swells. The Railway club was packed, full with people and the WIZERDZ but a great show with costumes and everything, there was even a Chinese dragon going around the club. The usual train was also circuling around. The public was energetic and the bands had great performances. Watch them when they play around town.

The best battle of the bands of Vancouver is into the semifinals. Shindig is a contest organized by CiTR 101.9 FM where I host The Morning After Show. The contest has been going on for 17 years straight, I have been fortunate enough to attend to some memorable nights and meet exciting people. I have judged, filmes, taken photographs and even told a joke. The house of Shindig is the Railway club on Dunsmir street. Last year winners were The Hidden Towers.

Since then hundreds of bands have passed through the show playing LIVE! on CDs, on line. Mainly the bands are Canadian and most of them from Vancouver. But the show has played bands from every country in the world including Martinica, Bhutan, Bulgaria, Palestina, Afghanistan, and every Latin American country. So this fundrive show I had a band playing live! The Deadwax Collective
Beside these guys we had an interview with Humans, Vancouver band and we played amazing music. The Crocodiles with Mirrors, The Warlocks with the song Like Surgery, we played The Pack AD, The Get Down, Humans, Crystal Castles, Bradley,
