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!

Lots of pop, some rock, and some funky stuff this show. As well I played some older material from my CD collection that I'm trying to archive to save shelf space.

The second set started with a disappointment from the past week when my chance to see The Mary Onettes in Chicago was canceled because of the Icelandic volcano. And the odds of my being back in Chicago when they (hopefully) reschedule their tour are pretty bad. Needless to say Chicago was still pretty cool.

I'm also getting better at finding out where I first heard songs so I can give credit to the great music I find out about from other people's podcasts and blogs.

Websites I mentioned during the show:

First song of the show (best song I heard since the last show):
The Very Most - Sod Off (See a live performance of the song here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apEQ3mNN6To )
