Sad sad day in Radioland

It's a quiet Saturday night over here, as I listen to the very last live broadcast of CBC Radio 3, aired on CBC Radio 2. A victim of the CBC's new programming, the show I've listened to for the past few year's (and I remember all of the Saturdays I spent studying to this show)is rocking the shit out of Canada in their last hurrah. I can feel a hole in my heart slowly forming. I can feel each individual indie rock braincell dying off one by one. I download the podcasts of course, and often have the streamed music playing while I'm at home, but what am I supposed to do on my Saturday nights from this day onwards? Okay okay so it isn't that bad-- I do spend many Saturday nights going out... but the point is that it's like when you break up with a boyfriend, or stop talking to your best friend. What do you do with the time you would have spent with them?

One solution is to get the freaking $500 Sirius iPod thing and a $30 monthly subscription. Given that I want to move out and since I'm more keen to save up my money, I've ruled that out. I know I'll survive somehow, with Joel Plaskett on the way, live Weakerthans tonight on the radio, and resuming guitar, I'll fill the void one way or another.

On a side note, *M* introduced me to the band Cold War Kids. Absolutely awesome song. The kind you can only dance to when you're in your underwear.
