Dial and donate

If you're a CKCU listener, you're no doubt aware that the venerable radio station is holding its fundraising drive. In addition to frequent breaks to plead for cash, that also means sundry shows around town as various hosts brings out their various faves to raise a few more dollars for a good cause. Last night was the Upstairs Neighbour's turn at the Clocktower, with performances from Liz McDermott of Banditas fame, Neck and Street Meat.

Liz ran through about a dozen songs, including a cover of Fortunate Son (turned into Fortunate One) and a couple of Banditas tunes. This was only her second performance solo.



There was a lot less guitar feedback than when she performed with Scott Terry ...



On to Neck. Here's some introduction action with Neil.



They've acquired a new bass player - Fucking Machines' Johnny Nash - since I saw them last.



Kevin hits!



The shouty bit with Jeff!



Johnny sings!



Kevin sings!



Beer!



And some bonus Johnny.



I was starting to feel quite tired by the time Street Meat played, so I only hung around for a handful of tunes. Here's Elena ...



Meaty action with Natasha and Leigh!



Singalong action!



The whole lot!



More Leigh!



Street action!



Then I wandered off home to sleep. There's more CKCU fundraising action tonight at Mugshots with Swollen Eyes' last hurrah, Sharing and Paul Jacobs.
