The Bloody Five on Ruby Slippers June 14 7-8 pm

Hey everybody,

This is the day (Friday that is) that the Bloody Five land on CIUT for the show.

They came armed with their own favorite tracks, as well as samples of the new Bloody Five album "Unreleased 2012". There is lots to talk about, questions as yet unanswered, and much much more.

Although with live radio, you are never really sure how much music will actually get on air, here is the list of possible cuts.

Yer Spring...Hey Rosetta!  (Raw Beats' pick)

Release...The Bloody Five

After You...The Bloody Five

Things I Do For Money...The Northern Pikes  (KD's pick)

Blasphemous Rumours... Depeche Mode (Tomi Fear's pick)
(I Wanna Go To)New York City (Demics' cover)...The Bloody Five

Tormentor...Skinny Puppy (Jay's pick)

Sanctified...Nine Inch Nails  (my pick, just went really well with SP

Love Is The Drug...Roxy Music (KD's pick)

I Remember You...Sebastian Bach and friends (but we didn't get all the way through)(I PROMISE to play the whole thing for Jay to start next week's show)

This is the final playlist, with lots of talk in between.
You can catch this show on www.ciut.fm posted in archive starting on Monday.

And look up the Youtube video of The Bloody Five's Just Joking with Snow White/Sleeping Beauty.

Thanks for listening.

Addendum to Day Two of Major Music

They will be at the Monarch and go on at about 1 am.

Give them a listen on Bandcamp, you won't be sorry.

Also check your program guides for anywhere the Cautioneers are playing (they are out and about 2 o3 three times) 

Good Lord, what have I gotten in to!

Here It is...the First Installment of the Completely Biased Guide to NXNE for Wed. June 12

Hey everybody,

As I did for CMW, I have had a little look at the guide which is pretty impressive and quite frankly takes my breath away.  In fact I was just about ready to give up on it completely and let fate take me where it wanted, but after another cuppa, came up with a few picks on a day by day basis you just might like to see.

So...bearing in mind that everything at Yonge and Dundas Square is a good bet and Lord knows, the price is right, here's what else is out there.

For Wednesday

The Rivoli has Human Bodies , Gentleman Reg and friends.  If you heard the interview with Kate from 

   HBod and the exclusive to us new tracks, you know where this is coming from. (If you missed it, the  

   show is up on the CIUT site for a week under "Ruby Slippers".)

The May Cafe has of course the CIUT Showcase, and having heard cuts from all the bands, it's a great

    mix.  Bloody Five will be on the show June 14, and their energy is out of this world.  Also love Take 

    with Audio, Seam, ATTAGIRL, MANcub, Stuck on Planet Earth. You would never have to leave 

    this venue for a full evening.

The Free Times Cafe  with Maneli Jamal.  Crazy good guitar, this artist holds you from the first note.

For more info, check out the NXNE site, there are loads of interesting bands out there.

Stay Tuned for Part 2 of the Completely Biased Guide!
