THE STROMBO SHOW
March 18, 2012
The day after
SAINT PATTY'S DAY
We continue the celebration tonight with a show full of all things celtic with some words from modern Irish punks. Producer and mix-master Mike Sullivan interviews Scruffy Wallce of the Dropkick Murphys and The Mahones' Finny McConnell. George speaks with Shane McGowan of the Pogues in Ireland. And as always, we deliver the Magnificent Seven as we round up some of this week's best including Vancouver's scottish punk outfit The Real McKenzies, Lucero, Jack White and The Boss.

LITTLE STEVEN AND FUNERAL SONGS......
Legendary member of the E-Street Band, Little Steven Van Vandt, visits to talk about his solo work, politics and remembering Clarence Clemons. We discuss funeral music - the ultimate last sentiment and how much a single song can say. And of course, we run down the best new music in the Magnificent 7 Countdown with offerings from Mark Lenegan, Islands, Skrillex and The Kills' covering a classic Velvet Underground tune.

October 23, 2011
Can one define what the elements to the perfect rock and roll song is? Is it length, the music or lyrics? CBC Radio 3's Lana Gay visits to chat with George about what makes the perfect song?
Also Strombo Show regular Bob Mackowycz Jr. will pop in for his annual musical salute to Scorpios.
Our Magnificent 7 Countdown as always is an eclectic one, we play some exclusive acoustic music from
K-os. We also wax on some important dates in music history, 10 with Tom Waits, and we will wind down in our Big Lie Down segment with some Canadian easy listening selections.

Sunday June 5 2011 8pm - 11pm
We celebrate the beginning of June with a visit from comedian Russell Peters. A major music fan we are excited to get inside Russell's musical mind. Also our favourite Scot, Calum Shanlin drops in and we celebrate the music of Mexico.
The Magnificent 7 countdown is top notch with some new music from huge bands, and well as some young upstarts. This week show has a thread of the 1970's music and our Blend mini mix celebrates this with a Yacht Rock Mix (think Michael McDonald, Christopher Cross and Hall and Oates).
