Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

October 12, 2011: Shock & Awetober week 2: Thanks, Canada: nothing but Canadian artists! And our silent fundraiser continues! Please pledge!
Listen to this show:
Pop-up player!
WFMU's Silent fundraiser continues as Shock & Awetober rolls on! It's a month chock full of live bands and other special events on WFMU, and it's also our first-ever Silent Fundraiser! Thanks to those of you who have pledged so far, but as the thermometer up at the top of the page indicates, I'm lagging well behind where I should be nearly halfway through the month. PLEASE use that form at the top of this page to make a pledge! Thank you.
You're also invited to vote for the theme of this year's Singles Going Steady show! And guess what, you can make a pledge on that page too. DO IT! |

For the person who asked what is Canadian Content (to qualify for airplay on Canadian radio) it must have 2 of these 4 criteria: M (Music is 100% written by a Canadian), A (the artist is Canadian, ie solo artist or band if the main performers are Canadian - could be tricky), P (song is produced 100% in Canada, recording, mixing), L (lyrics are 100% written by Canadian). Bryan Adams disputed this when he discovered one of his albums didn't qualify cause he co-wrote with a non-Canadian & recorded in the UK or somewhere and sort of got the CRTC (our FCC) to bend a little but... he's Bryan Adams :)
lots of stuff on my Bongo Beat Records site.
PS - Diodes on tour in Canada Nov 15-19!
