Theme: Best of 2005 On Air: Frank

I didn't really have an overall strategy on how I played the songs on the Best of 2005 show, however I did leave my picks for the top 3 albums of the year until close to the end. I had a tough time picking the top album from my top three. But in the end, I chose the CD that I most consistently wanted to be in my player, New Order's "Waiting For The Siren's Call". I know it is old school but even after all these years they still managed to put out a solid album. I put the Diskettes down as number two with their album "Weeknights at Island View Beach", their low-fi sound is about as far from New Order's as you can get. The Magic Numbers self-titled CD was number three, the album is filled with lots of incredibly catchy songs. You can see all my picks for the best of 2005 here: http://www.civil.uwaterloo.ca/frseglen/archive/setlists/2005/best_of_2005.htm One of the hardest things I had to do was to make sure that the albums and singles were actually released in 2005. I was good with most of the albums, but I was surprised at how many of my picks for singles were actually from 2004. Then there is also the difficulty in deciding what to do about albums that were released in their native countries in 2004 but not in Canada till 2005. That is why my number one single is "Heartbeat" by Annie, although it was released in Europe in 2004, it only came out here in 2005.

October 12, 2001

Theme: Polka, Polka, Polka
On Air: Frank and Michelle

I actually started off with almost a half hour of polka (or polka type) music for the Oktoberfest show, longer than usual, I've marked the songs from that set that I have never played before. After that it was sampling the new relases until we ended off with the Jonathan Richman spotlight to highlight the fact that me, Michelle and the Ambassador saw him play at Lee's Palace the week before.

The theme to the next show is being determined by outside forces, first off, although it will be almost a week before Halloween I think I'll have to play a few ghouly selections. But most of the show will feature Canadian artists as it SOCAN time at CKMS. To explain, SOCAN is the agency that distributes royalty money to artists, to judge how much each artist should get they survey stations at different times during the year to see what they are playing. In the case of a campus station like CKMS we get surveyed for 4 consecutive days every 3 months. I don't know exactly how much an artist gets each time I play them during a SOCAN period but I think (and hope) that it is betwen $0.50 and $1.00, although it also depends on the length of the song so it's not easy to say. I know a few people on the list have songs registered with SOCAN so they might be able to give me more details. The long and the short of it is... request a local artist who is registered with SOCAN then the next time you see them you can say "Hey I requested you during SOCAN week - you owe me a beer!".

We also might have a guest on the show, but I don't want to jinx it.

And I know that New Order released an album since the last show, but I didn't think a spotlight on them would fit in this upcoming show so I'll leave it until the first show of November.

I have also attached a list of the upcoming shows at the Jane Bond for the next while. I'm looking forward to both the Spookey Ruben and Joel Plaskett shows especially.
