So, Tuesday was the Skinny Puppy show. I've wanted to see them live for I don't know how long, and I recall being super thrilled when Vernard relayed the news to me back in June that cEvin Key had said they would finally play Vancouver for sure this fall [this being around the time cEvin came up to do a DJ set for Luv-a-Fair at the end of May]. And last's year's ohGr show was one of the highlights of my 2008.
I was not disappointed. Even better was getting to chat with Ogre backstage for this week's show.
As I said on-air, I quite enjoyed the new site associated with the next ohGr release, wdihtf.com, which is where you can go and get a taste of the next release and do a live remix of the new song "Collidoskope" by playing with the typewriter graphics. I suspect I'll probably be spending entirely too much time on that in the next little while...
There are also links to get a free download of "Collidoskope" as well as little widgets like I stuck in the sidebar of this blog and I'm sure there will be more aspects unveiled as things progress. Do check it out.
As I also mentioned on air, the boys from ForeskinRadio.com also interviewed Ogre, so here are their videos. And their interview mostly covered different territory from mine. Enjoy!
