My brain exploded, I thought it was Saturday morning when you played Dave Essig! Now I'm eating breakfast at 6:30 at night.

6:23 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hey Ian... well, I am here to explode listeners' brains, so to speak... anyway, breakfast is good any time of day!

I am, as usual, enjoyin' the show... and, it is, as usual wonderfully great...

That's one of my favorite songs by the Psychedelic Furs and the first song I heard by them when they played a video of it on TV, I think it was a show called The New Music.

6:38 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Steve Kirkland (host)
Gee, M, grateful I am for that! Cheers

Wally, I loved the New Music show. It was my only portal into non-classic rock as a kid. I remember the Furs video for sure.

Hey Ian it was a great show and introduced me to a lot of cool music back then - I remember seeing stuff on there and then phoning in requests to CKCU to get them to play stuff I discovered.

Renny
Brilliant show once again Steve. Have a Merry one and all that jazz, you ol' curmudgeon.

6:59 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hey Renny, great holiday R'sR the other night by the way... you too have a Merry one

Steve Kirkland (host)
Oops, cue up the wrong track and played something that I played last week... un faux pas extraordinaire pour moi... pardon

7:10 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Renny
Good lord, a song played 2 weeks in a row on Steve Kirkland's show. How will you ever live it down? Ha! Ha! Ha!

7:20 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Renny
Don't worry Steve. We can survive a good song repeated once a week.

7:20 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Steve Kirkland (host)
Good night... and good tidings... be safe... be good

7:57 PM, December 22nd, 2018
Renny
Steve, it's official. Because you played that song last week as well, it's now listed as a hit.
