CHSR 97.9fm - Campus/Community radio in Fredericton, NB

The Crazy Train Episode #LXXIX

newCTlogo_03012015I conducted the Crazy Train solo for Episode #79. The Buzz Man was off with his daughter.

Our CHSR-FM Annual ‘Fundrive’ is coming up. We’re doing a bottle drive, so if ya got a bunch of empty beer, booze bottles and cans, bring ’em up to the Student Union Building on UNB campus the morning of Saturday March 13th or Saturday March 19th! We rely on YOU the community to keep CHSR FM on air!

No guests on this show, but coming up on Episode #80 we’ll be joined by Dave Manning of ‘East Coast Awakening’. Dave is going to give us the whole lo-down on the Metal & Hard Rock festival he is putting together for July and it’ll be right outside Fredericton!

Brand new ‘Orchid’s Curse’ kicked off Hour I of the show as well as another brand new track from ‘Siegebreakers’ recently released 5 song EP. In Hour II it was kicked off with brand new ‘Voivod’ as well as a new track from ‘Anthrax’s’ latest release. Also a new band and a new track from Mexico’s Darkened Black Metal band ‘Veneah’.

The rest of Hour II was dedicated to the 30th Anniversary of ‘Metallica’s’ Master of Puppets. Man, 30 years! I can still remember buying it on cassette and playing it on the family stereo system! Time flies! I want to dedicate that Metallica tribute to the original ‘Puppet Master’ Jason Shipley who was the ‘Crazy Trains’ host from the mid 1980’s up to about 1996/97
