CKUA is in campaign mode

from last Friday until Nov 6 CKUA is Fun(d) Driving, So let's play an apropriete song
How about Michael Franti "Listener supported" is the song I'm going to go with.

If your into CKUA and what they do go online from my links to CKUA.com and make a pledge of support enter yourself in for the prizes, and pay for what they play, good music.

Such as

The Band, Bob Dylan, Bruce cockburn, burning spear, neil young, and Great big sea!

Speaking of Great big Sea they have a new album out called "The hard and the easy"
It's all tradional songs

I shell play Captain kidd A song about the legendary pirate.

Well that's it for the moment I'll leave you with a few of my words

Fall is lieing down amoung the fallen leaves
I ride the trail apon them, they covered all the green
I'll keep on riding forward though it is not what it seems
winters rising, rising in the west
But if I keep these leaves packed down
It will not break out yet.

Fair they well and peace be in your spirit.

my new creation





I wanted a wicked avatar for bike forems and to get one I had to do some work or rather play with a picture



thats the wicked pic I started with then I made it black and white to reduce file size and look good the bike frame went black and was lost in the background so i had to pencil it in. I think I did a good job




I inverted the colour





and then I shrunk it to fit the size requirements

I think it turned out great

Album of the week. Propagandi

Propagandi's Latest disk "Potemkin city limits" came into CKUA's library last week. I discovered it today and I have to exclaim

PUNK ROCK IS SAVED

Ok maybe not but only because the mainstream music industry won't be playing this Album.
This is an Album about what punk always started out being, not an image but a stage.

Wonderfull amazing politicle lines, exalent intelagent lyrics over driving simple music.

Take the first track for example it's called " a Speculative fiction" it would be a great radio track with lines like "And while you may stand six full cubits amd a span, we got a shepherds sling and five stones in our hands and the battle of 1812 in our hearts." is that not great. it's canada through and through, why because these boys come from here. Right out of the praries, The same winnipeg that gave us Randy Bachman! Of course you won't hear it because it's got a few of those forign words such as "we'll never Capitulate. We'll take the whole F*&King world down!" though you might still hear it on Public radio because we (CJSR, CKUA) can.

The bio we got for the Album is short and sweet about a quarter of a page and includes such qoutables as "41 minutes of new [songs] about planet earth from three people who just can't believe they have to be here."

It is going to hit your local indi record stores on the 18th of October give it a listen you'l be glad you did.

Punk's not dead but the mainstream will Still light the funeral fire if you let them.

Sleep depravation, ca-fene and adren-a-lene

Cjsr at a quarter to one jump back in time and I'm on the run
festival mug in one hand steering the bike with the other
here I come
over the level high bridge chasing midnight lights
got to get where I'm going having fun
hoping to answer the phones to someone who's happyly giving...thanks
donate to the cause before it's run..
by the time you read this.. the drive will be done
ckua's is yet to be gunned.

blinking strobing bike lights in the night
blue and red no black no white.

wind on my face racing the hights
now the clock only matters when it's time to ride into dreams
take that ramp off the mattress, and land in my mind, keep on riding

If I have not told you and the word has not spread to you, Not only am I going to be a husband I'm going to be a father, life is changing...I'm celabrating.

Let's play a song for the future
(Ugly kid joe) "cat's in the cradle"
