Playlist for December 5, 2009

When it rains, it pours - December starts with a trio of interviews.

First I had a conversation with Kevvy Mental of Fake Shark Real Zombie on topics ranging from the state of the industry, "music" television, Jakalope and other projects Kevvy's had a hand in lately, and cool horror flicks.

Then Vernard Goud set me up with a couple chats with Phil Western (Download, PlatEAU, etc.) and Jim Cummins (I, Braineater) on Thursday night at Luv-a-Fair at Celebrities. Phil and I chatted about various aspects of the Vancouver scene, vintage-y stuff like real record shops, synths and tape machines, live sound, playing live instead of on Memorex, and of course Download. Jim and I chatted a bit about art and Skinny Puppy as well as a benefit for Greg Johnson at the WISE Hall tonight. (December 5th 2009.)

In addition to the interviews, here's what I played on the show tonight...
