Of course I named the show after the great album by the Smittens and I pay homage to the band by using a clip of their song 11:11 for my theme. I hope the band doesn't mind, but when I have talked to various members of the band after shows they seem like nice people whom I think would be good with it.

I also use this name for my DJ night happening occasionally at the Jane Bond in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada.

Note that the links to shows older than 6 months might not be working, if you really want those shows please send me an email and I can get them to you. (Note that prior to 2018 I called my podcast FireballXL5, so don't be confused if you look at an old setlist)

Special thanks to Jeff Woods for finding my a place to host my mp3s!


February 5, 1999 

I had high hopes for this show, I planned a set of final additions to the
best of 1998 set as well as bands which are set to release albums in 1999.
But when Michelle took over after the first half hour she never let me
back in the chair to play anymore music.

I attached a few photos of the house after we had the big snowfall in
early january (apologies to those I have already sent the photos to), of
course since then almost all the snow is now gone and the high today is
supposed to be 6.

IMPORTANT:  I am just putting on the finishing touches to the Fireball XL5
Best of 1998 CD, so if you could all provide me your address I'll start
sending them out next week.
