Best music of 2023 --- sort of. Here are some of the great artists I discovered over the last year (or so). All of these moved me in 2023-ish AND all of these are indie.

Armed To The Teeth – Tinge from the album Big Deep Sigh I Choo Choo Choose You – Olivia Sea from the album Artificial Landscape, Artificial Heart Correction Line – Star Thistle from the album The Best of Star Thistle Mercury – Vagina Witchcraft from the album Vagina Witchcraft Grim – Harper K Smith from the album Thirty Candles Frail – Blind Commentary, single for a future upcoming release Time to Go Home - Leigh Filbert, single on an unreleased album The Unleashing of Ancient Black Magick – Ordo Ab Chao from the album Dark Mirror of Magick #podcast #music #indiemusic #local #manitoba #supportindie Website: www.seanmcginity.ca Merch: Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcast @seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @fastfretfingers on Instagram @ToddGeeks Tech Talk on Facebook @captivatefm Mentioned in this episode: New Merch Ad An ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

We continue with our OU812 rankings. (0:55) We touch on lyric writing, James Brown, if the Sammy era songs had happened during Dave’s era, just how amazing Darby Mills is and the greatness of Chilliwack. (9:08) Todd talks shop about Kramer and Steinberger guitar, locked tremolos and other Eddie gear. (19:52) What about Eddie and Sammy’s clothing choices during 5150? (26:32) And what famous shirt did Sean wear hoping people think he was as cool as Michael Anthony? We answer the question (likely incorrectly) of what exactly is the Pleasure Dome and why is Alex so amazing? (33:12) Can Todd and Sean execute poor Sammy lyrics better than Sammy?

We get back on track this week and continue along with our rankings of OU812 (paying homage to The Podcast Will Rock). We talk Alex and Bonham and how groovy they both are. (11:25) How hard was it to discover Van Halen when Anne Murray and Burton Cummings were force fed to you by the media? And how hard was it when Van Halen finally broke through on mainstream media and broke up shortly afterwards for us? Were we resentful when Sammy joined and why? We break down our feelings and emotions as fans during that time period. (19:12) Van Halen’s breakthrough also broke many other bands to radio, like Honeymoon Suite, Triumph, Huey Lewis & The News and Hall & Oates. We break down how radio would not play something popular until it was safe to do so. #podcast #music #vanhalen #1984 @PodcastWillRock @kelseyvanhalen @bookedonrock Website: www.seanmcginity.ca Merch: Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcast @seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @fastfretfingers on Instagram @ToddGeeks Tech Talk on Facebook @captivatefm Mentioned in this episode: New Merch Ad An ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

And The Podcast Will Rock may have had their own episode on Van Halen’s OU812, but no podcast Albuquerque’s more than ours. What were the circumstances that were happening to each of us when this album came out and how does this album rank amongst the Van Hagar catalog for us? While talking about the album and it’s ranking with us, we also broke into some other musical discoveries we made at Uncle Paul and Aunt Carol’s house in New Brunswick (16:40). We also talk about Uncle Ronny and Mike (27:58), Rock N Pod and InObscuria (34:59), payola (44:48), and making the perfect “old fashioned” (47:14). The boys also tell the infamous story (within the family) about the time Todd went missing and that was left behind was a shoe (52:48). #podcast @PodcastWillRock #vanhalen #OU812 #VanHagar #NewBrunswick @inobscuria @rocknpod #oldfashioned Website: www.seanmcginity.ca Merch: Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcast @seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @fastfretfingers on Instagram @ToddGeeks Tech Talk on Facebook @captivatefm Mentioned in this episode: New Merch Ad An ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

Eric fills us in on some great interviews he has had and some of the regulars on his own show.

Todd and Sean are just about ready for the holiday season. Are you? We chat about the rituals and getting ready for the season, customers’ unreasonable demands and the forced upsells in from retail. Current expressions, acronyms and abbreviations are getting lost in translation between generations, and please do be a “Karen”. Popular music borrows heavily from what came before. We share some examples of music and their origins, or more specifically if you like Ava Max, just go listen to Abba. Dad was a major musical influence on both of us. His bass playing is a fond memory but something else was his record collection. What was on our turntables growing up? Yeah Burton Cummings was but that Sals-eating grin never worked for me. He ain’t no Beatles that’s for sure. #podcast #christmas #holiday #karens #jelly #abba #avamax #dad #bass #records #beatles #burtoncummings #headphones Website: www.seanmcginity.ca Merch: Red Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcast @seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook @fastfretfingers on Instagram @ToddGeeks Tech Talk on Facebook @captivatefm Mentioned in this episode: New Merch Ad An ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy

We also throw some talk about Tesla (the band) the Simpsons, Soundgarden, the industrial sound, the grunge era, and Motley Crue.
