The evening began at 10:52 with a mad dash to the dépanneur. Missing the 11 o'clock cut-off for beer would be a critical mistake for deadbeats like us attending a BYOB show at the Drones loft, and indeed a devastating blow was dealt upon reaching the corner of Belanger and St. Dominique. How could this be, it's only 10:55!? But wait there is hope! If we sprint we can make it to the dep on Mozart! The length of Jean-Talon market felt like miles as we raced against time, only to be twice defeated, greeted by the sign: FERMÉ. What a caloric expenditure for naught, and why the early closure? Because it is Sunday?!

Last Sunday on Fatal Attraction, Patricia covered the Montreal Otakuthon and interviewed LeSean Thomas: television animation producer, director, animator, comic book artist, writer, character designer and the creator of Cannon Busters! Tune in here... to listen to the interview! (It starts around 19:31).

Today we'll be having a special 2 hour Champions of the Local Scene, because the local scene is just that great.

First, Mnjvr, host of Autobeat (Friday midnight - 2AM), got a chance to sit down and talk with Montreal DJ and founder of MusicIsMySanctuary.com and The 24 Hrs Of Vinyl, DJ Lexis. They'll talk about the busy summer he's had so far with and the upcoming events that are sure to please the most diehard UK garage fans. Most notably, his upcoming monthly night, on August 22th, at Le Bleury - Bar à Vinyle, where he'll share the decks alongside London's own, Flava D.  

As if having a Green Bay Packer on the show last week wasn't enough, this week The Starting Rotation is having a slew of guests talking to them.

First, Montreal actor Rob Naylor (from Arthur and 19-2) will be co-hosting with the team and talking with Lizanne Murphy from the Canadian Women's National Basketball team, who incidentally won gold at the PanAm games last week, and with kickboxer Emilio Greco Jr about his upcoming bout.  All this along with the sports coverage you've come to expect from the highest rated sports radio show according to the readers of Cult MTL.

Tune in from 11AM - 1PM right here at CJLO!
