Thanx for putting up with my screwups on this, my first show back in a few weeks. I was extremely nervous doing this one and hopefully that didn't come across onair. And HUGE thanx for all the supportive phone calls, messages and emails. Radio WW listeners are the best!!!
Back on March 12th with a regular show...ie lots of new music and an interview with The Intrusions, an Aylmer based hardcore combo.
