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!

I can't stress enough that everyone should watch the video for the Shamir song linked below, I know it is an ad for Ray-Bans but it is still great.

Best song I heard since the last show: Shamir - Tryna Survive, see the fun video here: http://pitchfork.com/news/68404-shamir-shares-new-song-tryna-survive-stars-in-short-film-watch/
