Repeat, repeat....I said WHAT?

Hope your weekend's gone well.... just sitting at my desk, listening to excellent tunes & most awesomely: 'Cabin In The Woods' & 'Look Who's Evil Now' from
The Evil Dead Musical, on
The Strombo Show. (Every Sunday 8pm - Midnight on CBC Radio 2.)

Upcoming guests for
George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight.

Finishing off 2009 in Strombo style...

Happy Holiday Season to all & may the end of 2009 hold relaxation & mellow reflecting on another year gone by. Easier to attain then you think:

From the Facebook group, The Strombo Show:
"Anyone listening in strange wintery places?
Dare we say, an All-Country Sad Off tonight? Bob is in with his Saddest Country songs.
The Strombo show continues with our last show of 2009.
8pm- Midnight All Across Canada.
Saving Radio 2. (That's a joke)
Commercial Free.
Fife Master's, Parisian hipsters, Twins and Love and... Porn are just some of the things we will be serving up tonight."
