This show is pretty simple. I recorded it at 1:36am and I was super tired but figured if I didn’t do it, then it just wouldn’t get done for another week and I hate the fact I have missed so many shows for various reasons. There’s less talk and not really much more music although [...]

Record shopping is pretty much my favourite hobby. Wherever I go in the world, you will always find me browsing the shelves of used record stores looking for gems. While in the USA last year, out of the 110 records I bought, I managed to secure around 80 records for $1 each. This is what I [...]
