Radio Show 78 Thursday September 11, 2014 9-11PM Eastern US Time WBKM.ORG
Words by Tim Lewis.
I just got back from my local music radio show on internet only Wbkm Dot Org. It was a little rough with the last song popping out of the player when I put a song into the queue, and having a couple of breaks blown away by the very busy Fire Department, but fortunately the songs were great, and held the day.
Songs before: 21st Century Schizoid Man (live) – April Wine Move Through Time – Persian Claws

intro
From our small city to the great big world, these are the Sounds of Burlington. There is a lot of great music happening in town this week and there was a lot last week. The GPN festival with many great national bands, many great local bands and Grace Potter and the Nocturnals is Saturday and Sunday, but last Saturday was all about this guy. This is Shoreline In Jersey by Joe Adler and the Rangers of Danger on WBKM and this is Burlington’s Kind Of Music.
1.) Shoreline in Jersey – Joe Adler & The Rangers Of Danger 2.) Smile – Dwight & Nicole 3.) The Heart Is King – Pinhead 4.) Neighbors – And The Kids
And The Kids played a killer show opening for Joe last Saturday at Nectar’s. The crowd loved them and were completely on for the ride. Classic song from a great Burlington band. Have you seen the Dwight and Nicole video for smile? It will make you do so. Great song from Joe. So yea, tons of music at the waterfront in Burlington, lead by this band.
5.) Nothing But The Water (pt 1) – Grace Potter and the Nocturnals 6.) Hometown – Gold Town 7.) Parking Lot – Villanelles 8.) Nothing But The Water (pt 2) – Grace Potter and the Nocturnals
I remember seeing Grace at Nectar’s on a couple of cold February days a long time ago, and watching the audience grow week to week, despite the sub zero temperatures. I knew she was taking off. I’m glad to see how big of a band they have become. The Villanelles are fun live. Both they and Gold Town are playing GPN along with other great bands like Anders Parker Cloud Badge, The High Breaks, Caroline Rose and lots of others. It should be a great time. OK, let’s play the next song on Ninja Jane. This one always rocked live!
9.) Fly On The Wall – Zola Turn 10.) Surface Tension – The Pants 11.) Never Satisfied – THE VACANT LOTS
Great song from their album Departure. They started in Burlington but now play all over the US and just started a tour of Europe. The Pants and Zola are great Burlington bands from the ’90’s. Last Saturday before the Rangers show, I went to the basement of one of the greatest music advocates in town, James Lockridge, and saw some heavy punk rock. I loved the twin guitars in this song.
12.) We Need Bigger Knives – As We Were 13.) Impaled On A Cuddly Spike – Dog Hospice 14.) The Wrong Song – The Lentils 15.) Green Peaks \ Dark Valleys – Get A Grip
I missed Grip at the party but loved the pure fury of that 44 second song. The Lentils played acoustic punk at the party and were lots of fun. I need to get more of their music. Dog Hospice was one guy with guitars strapped to his drum kit and the mic taped to his mouth with duct tape. It was kind of a cool show. Up next is a band who played the show, but went on before I could get there. Fortunately they are playing tomorrow night at The Monkey House, and I will be there!
16.) Black Cat – Black Rabbit 17.) Round Sum – Cave Bees 18.) Weapons Factory – The Wards
That was a classic ’80’s punk band. Cave Bees and Shephard’s Pie are playing the Monkey House show, but I don’t have any of the latter to play, yet. Up next is a great new song from a new favorite band who have played around for a long time.
19.) Demon Moon – Crazyhearse 20.) B.A. Pariah – Endless Jags 21.) Everyone Likes To Fight – Swale
Swale’s new album should be out very soon on white vinyl with a bonus album full of remixes. They are playing Saturday at 4pm at GPN if you want to see them. Great song from Jags who come to town now and then. In the north end of town you can go down almost any street and see lots of sunflowers.
22.) Sunflower Street – David L. Jarvis 23.) Old North Ender – James Kochalka Superstar 24.) Can’t Feel It – Vetica 25.) The Love You Feel – Lowell Thompson and Crown Pilot
Lowell has played around forever and is playing at GPN. Got a sense of how good it’s going to be yet? Great song from Vetica. Dave and James are classic Burlington artists. Sunday, after GPN, there is a huge after party at Higher Ground featuring Marco Benevento. Here is a song with him and Kat Wright live at Radio Bean
26.) I Put A Spell On You – Marco Benevento and Kat Wright 27.) A Quiet Pun – Joe Adler and the Rangers Of Danger 28.) Say It – Anachronist 29.) Until The Day I Die – Slingshot Dakota
Sorry that song got cut and my outro started to play. Ah, the joys of live radio. Carly Comando and Tom Patterson got married this week and I wanted to play that song in honor of the occasion. The best of luck to you!!! Anahronist have an album coming out soon. Great song from their last EP. The Joe show at Nectar’s last Saturday was great. He played the full album including a wonderful version of Pun. Well, I hope you enjoyed checking out the music of our town. Let’s do it again next week, shall we?
