Another in the much-more-infrequent-than-it-should-be Tell the Band to Go Home Invitational Series, where I turn the programming duties over to someone so that I can sit back, enjoy, and learn like everyone else. I love having new voices, perspectives, and interests on the show from time to time, and this show was particularly enlightening, as loyal listener and good friend Oly Backstrom dropped by to tell us about Greg Brown, Peter Case, Richard Thompson, and a few other artists he thought we’d enjoy. And we did! He taught us a lot, but I’m going to have to teach him a thing or two about Can-Con, it seems.

We start off on a somewhat sad note. It seems that one of my favourite bands of all time, and without a doubt one of the reasons that I’m such a huge music nerd today, The Lowest of the Low, is going on extended hiatus again. They’ll be sadly missed if this is the end, but their amazing music will live on forever.
Bruce Cockburn’s coming to town on Wednesday to accept a big award from the Winnipeg Folk Festival, so we’ll pay him some respect also by playing some of his great music.
Then, I share music and stories from my amazing trip to Minneapolis, where I got to see the amazing Rodney Crowell put on a show that I hope I don’t ever forget. I bought a whack of new CDs to share also, so a few tunes from some of the many new goodies I picked up.
