Late but great! Hey, that rhymed and you know it rhymed!
How’s it going folks? This show starts off with some AA-Awesome which is just as the name describes… it’s aa-awesome. Powered on the drums by my friend Rob, these kids living in Holland are beginning to spread their rawk to the clubs… if you’re in Holland… or the Netherlands, but not if you’re Dutch.
Kristie’s been studying like crazy and wrote two exams today, including one here at home via the internets (TECHNOLOGY) so that’s why the show is late launching today. I hope that’s ok with you.

Indeed it is pronounced “eh-eh awesome”. Do you have you ticket to the Netherlands booked yet so we can set up some shows
.
On a different note, did you ever consider doing something a little more retrospective Karim? Both Tyrone and Jared have done shows that reach a bit further back. Did you ever do a 10 year BCOL review?

i’ll dig back into the ol’ BCOL archives from CKMS and the Jane Bond and come up with an 8 year retrospective that will blow your mind Rob… i don’t think you understand what you just unleashed.
