A Train Trip Retrospective - a Playlist

Playlist for October 8th, 2009

Okay, so, I have admittedly not been the best at keeping this blog up to date. I cobbled together a string of posts from some notes I had lying around, but there are a couple of shows lost to the ages. Heard the way real radio is heard - live. Not read about on the internet, which is what we're doing here.

Not to say this isn't useful too! I mean, I wouldn't want to think I was wasting my time on this blog. No sir.

Anyway, I recently took a train trip out to the east coast and back. It was really, really awesome. I stopped in Winnipeg, Toronto, Halifax, Sackville, and Montreal, in that order. The show was an overview of some of the bands I managed to see live on the trip.
