What does it take to make music together?
Talent? Inspiration? Fun? Desire to perform? Love of music?
Sometimes, it just takes friends…
Bad friends..
My guest today are four UNB students who have come together to form the band, The Bad Friends. They are having the first big gig this weekend at UNB’s Social Club, and while they don’t have any recordings ready for us just yet, they are about to start working on original material. I had a great time asking them about where they came from, how they became good Bad Friends, and where things will head from here!
Music today:
- We began with the end, listening to Shivering Songs performer Joel Plaskett playing Credits Roll from The Park Avenue Sobriety Test.
- And from The Sylvia Platters new album, Make Glad The Day, we heard I’ll Be Your Vanity, which is either about furniture or pride (or both..).

Episode #71 was Part II of our ‘Best of 2015′. It was a phenomenal year for Metal on the East Coast. The original idea when I resurrected the Crazy Train was to give exposure to Indie Metal bands from all across our great country. But there’s so much amazing Metal right here in Atlantic Canada it’s hard to not pay attention to it. We do get in some great Metal from across the country, 88 Mile Trip, Adrenechrome, Sanktuary to name a few. But in the end, this year saw incredible albums from Halifax’s Chaos Theory, Enemy Designed, Saint John NB’s No Man’s Throne, Beyond Eternal and right here in Fredericton Brother and several other great bands all released incredible albums. In the day where any musician with the right gear and excellent ear can produce themselves a quality product it kinda really opens the flood gates for all the music that people in the past couldn’t afford to release. In short, in today’s digital medium, nothing can stop Metal!
