Neat. I grabbed some old boxes form David Eleanor’s basement. Sitting on the top of one was a couple burned CDs of old Morning After Show audio bits.
Driving around I popped the CDs in. One just had an old commercial I made for a Smut Peddling Sam show at the Cobalt. The other had an Amen song? and few live recordings and some hi-jinks from the original Morning After Show days at CiTR.
One of the live cuts was from a guy I used to know and love the music of, Joel Tong. he performed acoustic music while also fronting a band called Black Rice in the early 2000s. I used to play his music on my show all the time or fanboy him at local dives when he performed. It didn’t hurt that Alex may have had a little crush on him too…
Popping in the CD… I hit “skip” on Amen and track two was this old cut.
Joel – “Straight From Hell” (live from the Morning After Show)

Shit… I remember seeing his band Black Rice with S.T.R.E.E.T.S. and 3 Inches of Blood at the Cobalt many moons ago. There was a gong on stage? yeah.
Here is a commercial I made for CiTR to promote a show my band was playing with Your Funeral and my pals in Triple Word Score. Voiced by QMFM news guy John Hadley!

That was one of my early Pro-tools adventures. Good times.
Go with yourself.

[…] I do have one song… a track I blogged about a couple years ago. […]
RIght now I am Listening to Joel Tong’s ‘Regret’ LP from way back when who even knows any more. I ripped it to MP3 back in the early 2000’s. Does anyone even still follow this thread. It’s almost 2020. Tell him he should put it on Spotify or something.
Yeah man I still see the comments but I don’t know Joel anymore. Wonder what that bro is up to?
Probably working in VFX like the last time I saw him 15 years ago.
Regret is awesome, he should reissue.
