CKLN, Toronto

Tonight we were featured guests on Lowdown to Uptown, a popular blues show on radio CKLN in Toronto. My son, Alasdair, came along as Tour Photographer and did an excellent job of documenting the show! Here's the playlist and what it looked like from a grade 5's perspective! Here's the control desk- cool!

This is our host, David Barnard, AKA Dr. Feelgood. His playlist for the evening is also included below. We had as much fun listening as we did talking. David should record all the "off-mic" chat and gossip- always a treat, too.
