Never play Lady of Spain again!
Greetings all. Thank you for tuning in to episode three of The Great Banana Hoax, now also known as Lighting the Lamp. A thousand thank yous to Golden Bears' forward Ben Kilgour for dropping by the station to yak hockey. Two things I learned: there ARE pro hockey teams in Louisiana, and Petr Klima is a much better player than I give him credit for. Also, props to my co-host Jordan for the Tony Hand feature. Had the hockey gods allowed Hand to don the copper and blue, who knows what the legacy of the Oil would be. Am I sensing a replacement for the Silver Fox? Not likely, but a man can dream...
Other topics discussed this week included Darren McCarty starring in a Wrestler-style film titled The Grinder (insert devil horns and nu-metal guitar riff) and on-ice hair farmers of the early 90s (re: Todd Gill). We also had fun with an online Slapshot soundboard and hockey cards from the O Pee Chee 91-92 complete set.
This week's selection of music had a noticeable garage rock flavour. Like we said, psychedelia spans the genres. Again, in no particular order:
