Congratulations to UNB’s V-Reds Men’s Hockey team for making it to the AUS finals! The first game starts in Fredericton on Monday, March 6 at 7pm. We’ll be covering all the local games as they happen, so tune in on Monday to hear the team take to the ice. If necessary, we’ll be covering the third game in the series when they return to Fredericton.

The Lunchbox Interview: Lisa-Ann Ross (Shorts and Sweets)

Posted on 2017-02-28 by encaf1 Posted in The Lunchbox

Most people think of theatre with a very narrow definition, but the possibilities are truly endless.

My guest today is Lisa-Ann Ross from Solo Chicken Productions, one of the companies participating in the bilingual, multi-city, multi-production experimental new theatre night called Shorts and Sweets / Culottes Courtes et Sucreries. We discuss how this collection of short theatre pieces came to be assembled, the thrill of untested theatre, and the fascinating experience of seeing theatre in a language you may not fully comprehend.

Shorts and Sweets will be on the stage on March 6th at 7:30pm at the Charlotte Street Arts Centre.

The Crazy Train Episode #CIV

Posted on 2017-02-21 by Chris Waddell Posted in The Crazy Train

On this episode I spoke on the phone with Mike Bernard from ‘District Avenue’ about the bands name change (formerly known as ‘Kickin’ Krotch’), about the recording of the bands debut album under their new name and what’s coming up for them (BTW, the band is in need of a bass player, please get a hold of the band on the ‘District Avenue’ Facebook page). I debuted a couple of new tracks from their album ‘Epoch’.

Also on the episode we had new music from Edmonton’s ‘Striker’, Vancouver’s ’88 Mile Trip’ and the brand new single from Fredericton’s ‘The Wasteland Zombies’.

Here’s the playlist for Episode #104:

Hour I: Crazy Train – Ozzy| Revival – District Avenue| Interview with ‘District Avenue’s’ Mike Bernard| From The War – District Avenue| Haunting Hours – District Avenue| Former Glory – Striker| Kill Scene – Zombie Nation – The Wasteland Zombies| Tomcat Prowl – 88 Mile Trip| Think – The Reckless Hero’s| Dawn Brings Death – Beyond Eternal

Hour II: Brackish – Kittie| Bullet To The Brain – Megadeth| Atlas Rise – Metallica| Show Yourself – Mastodon| We Wept – Bereft| Mr. Superstar – Marilyn Manson| She Is Beautiful – Andrew W.K.| Back In The Village – Iron Maiden| The Cell – Gojira| Communion – Revocation

 

Next weekends Crazy Train is ‘All Request’! YOU program the show! So either on the Ctrain FB page or at my email address let me know what you want to hear! crazytrainchsr@gmail.com

And remember, if you have a new band, a new single, a new album, a show coming up, a show coming up that I missed, let me know at that email address! And we’ll get ‘er done!

PLEASE NOTE: This show is being held specifically for the production of “The Capital – a webseries.” The footage caputured is intended to be used in the series. Since this will not be like a typical show, we want to make sure you, the audience, knows what to expect:

– We will have camera and sound crews present to record the performances. We may need to restrict areas directly infront and beside the stage as “crew-only” to ensure they can do their work.

– Sets will be short. Each band will only play three songs with 20-30 minute change-overs in between each band.

– Everyone in attendance will have to sign a simple image release form to consent to being filmed and possibly appearing in the series.

– Organizers also reserve the right to limit the audience size.

We hope to see you there! We want energetic and enthusiastic fans out to enjoy the live experience! The bands will be giving great performances, and if we are all mindful of the production, everyone should have a great time!

ABOUT THE SERIES
Urban myths and local stories come alive at The Capital, a documentary web series inspired by the amazing music scene in Fredericton, New Brunswick!

Stay tuned for more details and for more information please check us out at The Capital – a web series and RayneMaker Productions!
