Nov 20/06 Show #28 Where is that Camera??

A fantastic ISLANDS weekend! We were lucky enough to have Nick Diamonds and his cohorts in the studio for a chat on Saturday. Thanks to Matt & Paul for donating their spot, and HUGE THANKS to Rebecca for conducting the interview...without her Islands/Unicorns knowledge, I would have been left chatting about clubs in Winnipeg and Canadian beer. Fun times hanging with the band...and an absolutely wonderful show Saturday night. Cheers to the band and Hil for a really fine time. Thanks. Congrats to Jillian who won herself some Hidden Cameras tix this week. We'll see ya Wednesday.
