This show was to support the fundraiser for the Galiano Conservancy Association so we had Marley Daemon playing LIVE! on the show plus Tamara Nile calling in. Some of the best folk artists played that night at the Waldorf. MLA Spencer Chandra Herbert was there speaking and besides CiTR, CJSF CIVIL radio and Shaw TV were there among other musicians and friends.

We started the show with Silvania from their fourth album Juniperfin, it goes back to building atmospheres and creating images out from sound textures: industrial soundscapes, ambient, a present for the sensibility, as a walk among the clouds. Always a step ahead of their time. We heard Aldrin

This magnificent roots show kicks off at 7pm on January 26th at the Waldorf Hotel, featuring award-winning local folk performers: contemporary vocalist and Galiano native T.

This weeks episode of Friday Sunrise with psychedelic Toronto Tracks from; Anagram, Holy Mount and Quest For Fire.

Anagram – Quote from Eye Magazine, “Maybe my renewed infatuation with The Jesus Lizard has induced a taste for cantankerous-sounding singers, but even when you get past Anagram’s Matt Mason ranting about how “there’s too many people” and “they’re all just cattle and you’re the black sheep” on the band’s long-overdue third album Majewski, you’re still left with a relentlessly swinging post-punk assault”

This week’s episode of Friday sunrise featuring Toronto Tracks from The Ultimatemost High and The Mark Inside who have just released their new EP, “False Flag.”

This is going to be my third year of doing this. The first year I did an hour of noize like Merzbow, Naked City, Keiji haino, Death Ambient, stuff like that combined with ultraed and Throbbing Gristle. I read some poetry, dark poetry, I played three \Cds at the same time, it was maniac and insane. The second year I did two hours and I repeated the show of the year before but added some Le Mystere des le Voix Bulgare and sosme Rey Trueno from mexico, some Ozomatli and Jorge Reyes, some crazy Mexican. It was two hoirs of madness. Those shows you can still find them on www.citr.ca go to my podcasts and look for the Radio Art episodes. This year I am going to do it again, go wild with noize, this year I am going to put exclusively SPANISH AND LATIN NOIZE so expect top experimental, VERY RARE AND VERY WEIRD some of it has never been played on the airwaves.

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.
Don’t forget that The Morning After Show is broadcasted LIVE every Tuesday at 11:30 AM PT at 101.9 FM in Vancouver or you can listen to it on line at www.citr.ca

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.
