Tell the Band to Go Home

It’s our 900th episode and time to look back at the past hundred episodes since we last tallied up our most played artists a couple of years ago! It’s interesting to compare recent episodes to those cumulative totals, so we did some of that today, but we’ve also got some great new music to share and we chat about the Great Cycle Challenge Canada, going on now. Thanks to all of the generous sponsors so far. There’s still plenty of time to support the cause, so consider making a tax-deductable pledge here if you’re able: https://greatcyclechallenge.ca/Riders/JeffRobson

Hey, it’s August and our last episode of the 800s! Next week we hit 900 episodes, but before then, some more great new music, more Blue Note Park highlights, and more of my recent chat with Jim White. For more of that entertaining interview, check out episode 20 of Fly with your Shadow.

This month, I’ll be taking part in the Great Cycle Challenge, in support of SickKids, an organization trying to find a cure for childhood cancer. That sounds like a mighty amazing mission that I can get behind. If you’re able and willing, consider supporting the cause! https://greatcyclechallenge.ca/Riders/JeffRobson

Had to slip in some exciting new music and one big concert announcement, but the bulk of today’s show is inspired by a recent trip down to Blue Note Park where I saw Andrew Neville & The Poor Choices tear through a set of stellar songs that had me thinking that Poor Choices sure do make excellent choices, so I stole a pile of classics off of their playlist and threw in a bunch of my own for a pretty solid set of music that’ll have you eager to join me down at the Park this week for another sure-to-be-great Poor Choices show! Tickets are limited but available here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/andrew-neville-and-the-poor-choices-tickets-160294359745

It’s a pretty incredible week all around at Blue Note Park. Hope to see you there! Whatever tickets remain are available here: https://www.eventbrite.ca/o/times-changed-high-amp-lonesome-club-18256543452

No need for the music to bring the heat today because it’s frickin’ hot out, so things heated up quickly with some songs about the seemingly ever-present blazing sun. We paid tribute to the late, great William “Skinny” Tenn, looked at some upcoming shows, heard a bit more from Shawna Caspi who was the guest on Fly with your Shadow this week, rediscovered Storyhill and heard some great new music!
