CCCS - 24 Sept 12 Third time doing it live in the studio. I got to say that trying to an all, or almost all, vinyl show in a studio with only one record player is a bit challenging. But seeing as I am a clever and resourceful individual I can make it happen. Blah blah blah…so this week a splattering of more vinyl from Nominal Records, React Records, La-Ti-Da Records and Mammoth Cave Recording Company and a few others. Shows to check out in the new little while: Solidarity Rock at Aftermath on the Abbotsford Campus of UFV on Saturday 13 Oct 12. $10, all ages and doors at 7:30 p.m. Featuring bands like Arrabio, Vicious Cycles, Previous Tenants and The Injectors. www.facebook.com/events/157001041104573/ La-Ti-Da Records presents the Fall Down, Get Down Music festival. Multiple venues in East Vancouver from Thursday 1 Nov to Saturday 3 Nov. $40 for a wrist band and tickets at the door. www.facebook.com/events/104050516414953/ The Playlist (artist - song - album): Apollo Ghosts - Library Card Amulet - Apollo Ghosts/Role Mach 7” Treasure Eyes - Pauly - S/T EP Shotgun Jimmie - You’ve Changed - Paint It Pink EP PS I Love You - Sentimental Dishes - Death Dreams Love Cuts - Moon Friend/I Will Kiss Anyone - S/T 7” Twin Crystals - Bones - Twin Crystals/Shearing Pinx 7” Ketamines - Line by Line/New - Ketamines, The 7” The Ballantynes - Stay - Misery/Stay 7” The Parallels - Arms to Hold You - S/T 7” The Tranzmitors - I See The Writing On the Wall - React Records S/T 7” The Mants - The Mants!
