Re: Aural Moon Shows

I have no problem with the sharc's comments. One thing I try to do is play artists that you otherwise would not have a chance to hear. Sometimes they are only available on vinyl, and can be pretty hard to find. So someone might have been curious about a band (or had no idea they existed) and then find out they enjoy it. And of course another band that is long forgotten may have been so for a reason. I am sure some of the tracks I have played are poor, and I'm actually hoping that the move to 90 minutes will reduce the number of times I feel I have to "add something" to get up to a full two hour show.

It's a funny thing, but I actually got involved with Musique ProgresSon when my eventual business partner found out about my Aural Moon show (I was doing Canadian shows at the time) and tuned in, then contacted me. The result after a few years is that many of these artists are now available on CD. So Aural Moon has some indirect responsibility for the ProgQuebec label.
