New Feature

If you scroll to the bottom of the page, you'll see a new feature on the blog--a playlist of songs. This is intended as a sampler of the kind of things I play on the show from week to week. So whether you want a tast of what the show is like, or you just want to hear some killer tunes between shows, I welcome you to check it out.

I will be updating it from time to time, but not on a frequent basis, since I carefully selected songs that I think show the range of material I play on Tapping the Ether. If it piques your interest, tune in on Saturday nights from 20:00 to 22:00 (GMT -5) to hear the show. The live feed, and archives of recent shows, can be found at the CFRC website.

Rush And Bubbles

Shortly after Alex Lifeson appeared on an episode of "Trailer Park Boys", Bubble reciprocated by performing with Rush during the Easter Seals Telethon. Unfortunately I was working that evening and missed the performance, but thanks to the wonders of YouTube I was finally able to see it and I thought I'd share it.
