I begrudgingly worked all day, day-dreaming about all the art exhibits and artist talks I wanted to attend but couldn't, and when the daily grind was finally over I headed on up to Quarters POP at 5:30 pm for the Media Mixer. 

Music has two levels of enjoyment. The first is on the personal level, in which one listens to a song alone. The second level involves the gratification of sound in a group, either with a few close friends, or amongst hundreds of strangers. The performance by Suuns with Radwan Ghazi Moumneh took the second level to heights that I have not yet reached.

Tony Visconti did a Q&A at the SAT on Saturday and said a bunch of stuff about people*. Here are some pullquotes; it's up to you to figure out who he's talking about!

a message from the host of Salvation From Sin

The relationship between CJLO & Salvation From Sin is coming to an amicable end, although SFS will continue running elsewhere. The final show #187 will air on Friday October 4, 2013 on Montreal's CJLO 1690 (www.cjlo.com for a LIVE stream). This special closing show will be a marathon, extended version, from the usual starting time at midnight until 8:30am. That's right: 8.5 hours of non-stop mixing. I will provide for you, my faithful listener, an epic mix. Tune in for one last time on CJLO!
