This is how we rock it in the T dot

Last sunday night (January 8th) we were lucky enough to be asked to come and play live on CIUT 89.5, the U of T college radio station. Stephe Perry who hosts the show is an old friend it was really awesome of him to want us to come in. Anybody that knows Stephe knows he's the real deal as far as Toronto hardcore goes, he's been actively involved in the scene for the last 20 years, probably longer. When I first got into hardcore in the 80's I had some songs from his band "One Blood" on a tape with DRI "Dealing with it" and SNFU "If you swear you'll catch no fish". So to me he'll always be a bit of a celebrity, and he's also one of the nicest guys you'll ever meet.

We played a live 6 song set (with a couple of new songs thrown in), and then did a marathon 53 minute interview and had a total blast. Thanks so much to Stephe and Stu (and Fred?) for everything, and to the kids that showed up! It was all recorded so we should have the entire set and interview pretty soon and we'll post the whole thing on the site ASAP.

Just to add - thanks all those peeps who came down to the studio. Specifically Matias, Karen (staying out past curfew!), Rob, Slorach, Adam and two dudes I had not met before. I should have said what's up but for some reason was nervous about playing on air and it slipped my mind. Come out on the 26th and everyone will get high fives courtesy of sparkles.

Thanks again for coming down on the 8th as well.

Yo, I got home in time for the last half of the interview. Do you guys have the entire show recorded with the live songs?
