Attempting to listen in London ON.....having internet issues today and it's frustrating. Here's a weird one....Steph O'Halloran is the singer in the Lemon Drop Gang and I have a 2nd cousin also named Steph O'Halloran who sings in cover bands in your fine city. There's not a lot of us O'Hallorans. And ending with Black Sabbath?? Weird, as I was listening to Sabbath yesterday.... Rockin' show and digging it.

Whoopy! Music! Hello everyone...

I like the idea of playing two (or even three) songs by one band. Not done often enough, I think. Maybe DJs think people would think it's "facile", it's an easy out. Not me.

Benoît
Ooh, the (in)famous My Gal Is Red Hot! Heavy dissing of "your gal"...

1:44 PM, January 22nd, 2025
Renny G (host)
Yeah, they do. It was once a big taboo. I was trained in closed circuit by a deejay who never played the same song twice. To play a "Super set" of an artist was considered to be too commercial. I'm too old and jaded to care anymore.

I'm really liking Diablogato. I need to hear more.

Slamdanistas great name for a band.

1:55 PM, January 22nd, 2025
Renny G (host)
Yeah. I agree Frankie.

Hey Frankie, I'm doing the last hour of Friday Nite Truck Stop on Friday, Jan. 31. Going to be Rural Renny and play some hardcore hurtin' music.

And Benoît, he song "(My Gal Is) Red Hot" is not the same song that Billy The Kid Emmerson first recorded and then was covered by Billy Lee Riley & His Little Green Men and then by every rockabilly band in creation. This was written by a different guy.

Benoît
(addendum: which is -- not playing the same song twice -- the very opposite of CHEZ' philosophy, playing I believe only 5-6 Tragically Hip songs. Ever.)

2:04 PM, January 22nd, 2025
Benoît
Red Hot -- ah, thanks

I enjoyed the original version of Bottle of Wine, but not quite as much as the bottle of wine itself.........but it was a close call !!
