I've always been pretty sure that corporations are the devil. I have to give props to Q-92 though... We announced a Stabilo show a couple of weeks ago and when I called the Q to announce the show they were all over it. They said, 'yeah great, we're playing their new single so we'll mention the show'... the power of Radio is that we almost sold this last minute Tuesday night show out... Thank-you Steph Hunter and Q-92 for being there and promoting the music you are playing and we are presenting. This is the way it is supposed to work... everyone helping eachother out. Using the media power for good... to create community... to have the people who live in this community be proud to go out and do things together like see up and coming rock and roll bands in small clubs... for quite a few years recently, it seemed that Sudbury was getting the idea that the only music you should see is popular arena acts... Nickelback and whatever... boring!! For me... the true excitement of music is to always be discovering something new... that's why we book a wide array of styles at the Townehouse... that's why I love Q-92 and CBC 99.9 and CKLU 96.7... I don't like all the music they play... nobody has to like ALL music... you can't own EVERY record... but they all prove time and time again that whether you are working under a corporation, government legislation or not-for-profit rules... people are in Radio because they love music and they love this community... and they are all very human and very cool people. I don't love all the music... but I do love ALL of the music lovers.
