I Miss 'NY. Big Reunion November 12th!
Back when I was a teenager and on to university I used to listen to this Toronto radio station constantly and it's responsible for introducing me to some of the most important music ever (matched only by Brave New Waves). Well good news for Spirit of Radio fans, they're having a reunion in November! Click here to check out this excellent tribute site to one one of the best radio stations ever (now a total joke sadly). My cousin, Craig "Lobster Boy" Venn from Toronto radio station Q107, even got his radio start here at this station in Brampton. Ontario. There are some airchecks at the site including the most beautiful voice on radio ever Ms. Dani Elwell's last ever Alternative Bedtime Hour. Lots of other treats for the nostalgic. They even have that Toast song by The Streetband! Ah the memories. Anyone who hears "C-F-N-Y" said in a robotic voice will start to weep when they consider how f**ked radio is now. The Marsden plea to save CFNY is incredibly saddening when you consider the state of radio today and how much we lost. He could never have done this today. Radio will never EVER be the same as this was. I miss you CFNY.
