A Cross-Canada Tribute with Chris-A-Rific! - June 15th, 2008.

DOWNLOAD HERE.

A near month before Canada Day seems like as good a time as any to go on a voyage around the nation in music with CiTR and CBC 3's own Chris-A-Rific, who, after being unknowingly and ambiguously challenged by your sly emcee came out victorious, with some picks (hey, "Julie Doiron" is hard to pronounce, okay?).

Also, a few good road stories for any of your aspiring bands and roadies of where to go and what to do and where to avoid... and by avoid, I mean cut your teeth on the national quota of bad experiences for touring bands.
