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!


October 15, 1999 

In a vain attempt to be cool and hip I have created a website for the
show (next I will be growing a goatee and getting multiple piercings or
it that already passe).  The URL is: www.civil.uwaterloo.ca/frseglen
I tried to make it simple and easy to navigate, it includes a searchable
archive of the setlists and a history of what I have done on various
stations in my campus radio career.  If you have any suggestions or notice
any glaring errors please pass them along.

As always the Oktoberfest show started with the Wetspots and the
Blitzkrieg Polka (not to be confused with the Ramones Blitzkrieg Bop)
and then more polka than anybody can stand (3 songs).  As promised
there was a set of music about the Fight Club which Michelle and I had
gone to see the week before, I'm still undecided about the movie, I liked
the first part however the second half gets a be too much when they take
the Fight Club to the next level.  A couple of songs I couldn't find for
the fight set were "Kung Fu Fighting" and "Momma Said Knock you Out".

The next show will be Oct 29, I know its a cliche but what the hell, its
going to be a Halloween show, I think we can actually keep it up for the
entire two hours, the hard part will be the Can/Con thing.  If you have
any suggestions send them along.
