Double Mega!

We’re back!  The show is back!  Yay!  Since we’ve been away for so long we’re dropping not one but two episodes of Bridges And Squares on ya head.  We’re calling it the Double Mega Comeback Show.  Where have we been?  We have been in a land I like to call Lazy Land.  We recently observed that people sometimes get lazy when they work full-time and try to produce a podcast in their spare time.  Alas, there is too much good music in Boston to not jump back on the podcast trail.  For our Double Mega return we have two completely different bands as guests.  On part 1 we have the well crafted alternative rock of Alchemilla.  For part 2 we have the energetic and fun punk rock of Radio Control.  These two bands show the breadth of rock we play here in Boston.  So we are gonna finish up the year strong and try our best not to procrastinate on releasing new shows.  Let us know if you want to help out the show. We always want a new voice and any aide will be greatly appreciated.  Keep emailing bands you want us to have as guests too!  Support these bands.  They rock!

Enjoy the shows punks!

Bridges And Squares 09 - Radio Control

It’s Hot Audio! Radio Control reminds us why punk remains an essential part of rock.  We don’t all need to be Joe Satriani and play obscure music scales.  Radio Control realize that energy and passion is what really makes music great.  In fact, I like listening to their music ten times better than listening to Mr. Satriani overplay his guitar.  Radio Control’s music makes you want to start a band.  Who wouldn’t want to play their brand of fun punk rock.  They keep it fast and they keep it loud.

They’re trying to raise some funds to finish their debut album set to be released in early 2011.  Donate to their cause and see them play at Tavern At The End Of The World on November 19th.  We need make sure bands like Radio Control continue to put out music!  Check out the details about that show here

Our music topic for the show is “I don’t get (this band).” During our discussion, we talk about how the reverb drenched bands popular on Pitchfork right now are a bit overrated.  Are we correct or are we assholes?
