I just got back from my local music radio show on internet only WBKM.org. It had a swing at the beginning then rocked through the end.
Song before: Distant Early Warning – Rush

intro
From our small city to the great big world, these are the Sounds of Burlington. Life in Burlington has seen a ton of rain and lots of sunny beautiful days, or parts of days. This is a song from the early 2000’s from a band from Rutland. This song has been playing in my head a lot lately, so now I’m going to play it for you. This is If I Go by Will on WBKM and this is Burlington’s Kind of Music.
1.) If I Go – Will 2.) Waiting For You – Swale 3.) Think I’ll Go – Great Western 4.) Precious Time – The Cush
The Cush built their first album in Texas then moved to Vermont for a few years. I saw as many shows as I could and that is such a great song. Killer song from Western. Hopefully, they have new stuff coming soon. That’s such a fun Swale song and sounded as good coming out of the Will song as I hoped. This next singer is playing this weekend in Hinesburgh at the Northern Sun Music Festival with a bass player and drummer. I bet it will rock.
5.) Scattered Birds – Aaron Flinn 6.) Einstein-Rosen Bridge – Jeremy Gilchrist 7.) The Whole – Milton Busker 8.) I Forgot – Maryse Smith
Maryse Smith is playing at Signal Kitchen tomorrow. What a great song. I have not caught up with Milton in a while, but hope to soon. Cool lyrics that make you think from Jeremy. Hopefully, I will get to see Aaron and his band really rock sometime soon. Like the first song in the set tonight, this song has been going through my head a lot lately.
9.) The Territory – Hana Zara 10.) Let It Shine – Rachel Brown 11.) Sunflower Street – David L. Jarvis 12.) In The Rain – Plan B
It’s been raining like crazy lately and was supposed to rain today. No sign of it yet, it’s really been a beautiful day. I’ve always loved that Dave song. Rachel used to unleash her killer voice in this town a lot. OK, it’s time for the next song on JV, the album I’m playing all the way through, song after song, week after week. It will be released July 27 when they play The Monkey House.
13.) Iron And Metal – The Mountain Says No 14.) Bomb – Envy 15.) Original Original – Black Rabbit 16.) Weapons Factory – The Wards
Classic song from the band that lead the punk wave in Burlington back in the ’80’s. Killer new Rabbit song! Killer classic from Envy. Sean Toohey and Ann Mindellwho played in that band are in a new band called The Nancy Druids. Definitely check them out when they play Radio Bean a couple of Monday’s from now. Hmmm, Mountain. OK, let’s keep on playing some recent Burlington punk music.
17.) Planning My Funeral – Poxy 18.) Black Oil – Doom Service 19.) Asphyxia – Better Things 20.) Blue Lights – As We Were 21.) MSP2 – ROUGH FRANCIS
If you want a heavy rock band, you could not do better than Rough Francis. They are at Higher Ground tonight opening for Bad Religion. As play it fast and hard and fun and I’ve loved the couple of times I’ve seen them. Better keep writing music and playing shows and I cant’ wait to see where they go next. Doom always rock hard. I miss Poxy. This next artist used to play all the time in Burlington. She’s coming back for a visit. Will she play a show? I hope so.
22.) Vicarious – Alice Austin 22.) Sequoia II – Binger 23.) These Are Some Things – When Particles Collide 24.) Stop – REDadmirial
I’ve got to get out and see admiral. They are playing the Northern Sun Music Festival too, but I have to work on Saturday and Sunday I’m meeting Mom and Dad and Ken for a Father’s Day lunch then heading to Montreal to see Rush with Ken. Killer song from Particles who are on the road now. Go check them out! Cool song form Binger. It’s almost the Solstice and the longest day of the year. It makes me feel like this song.
25.) These Summer Nights – Sarah Blacker 26.) Don’t Cough Me Out – Slowdim 27.) Can’t Feel It – Vetica 28.) Relief – Death World Wide
Killer song from the bands new album N.E.W. Love that Vetica song. Killer song from Slowdim. I’d love someone to bring that Boston band to town. Sarah’s on the road. Check her out if she comes to your town! I hope you enjoyed checking out the music of our town. Let’s do it again next week, shall we?

Yesterday was the 30th anniversary of the release of Misplaced Childhood, so the songs after were: Childhood’s End->White Feather (live) – Fish
After wrapping up the show, the rain came. It was a very wet walk home with shifting winds. The umbrella helped, but it was a very wet walk.
