Episode #21 - Live Show At Baba's Lounge

noreply@blogger.com (John Bruce Affleck.) — Fri, 31 Dec 2010 10:33:00 -0800

Ok, we are ending off 2010 with a real treat. Thee Radio Show got asked to do an all vinyl night at Baba's Lounge in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. This night couldn't have been better: dancing dads, super babes, ripping tunes, and infinite drinks to be had. Hands down one of the best nights of 2010. Thanks to everyone who came out, especially to J Vapour and Erin for being the coolest. The whole night is posted below, almost 4 hours I believe. With jigged sound, at the beginning, record skips when someone jumped on the dj booth, terrible fades, and fleetwood mac's rhiannon played twice somehow. Its far from perfect but it was a hell of time.
