Hey man! Its been a long while since I spent any time in downtown TO, but that staircase in your photo-pak reminds me a trip to Starvin' Marvin's Burlesque Palace many years ago! What a night!!

Have you got a link to your on-air show...I'm interested...

Also, have you given this a listen? Its making my work day that much more tolerable...but not sure what it does for the stuffed shirts around me!
