Michael "Mike B" Bresciani

February 15 2011 // DJ Spotlight

The year is 2004, the location, Empire Polo Fields in Indio, California. A young Michael Bresciani is leaving the Coachella Festival after having seen the Flaming Lips, Radiohead, the Cure and the recently reunited Pixies. If that musical experience wasn’t enough, Michael was also working at the HMV Megastore in the heart of Montreal and exploring new music.

The Radio Dept. @ Petit Campus

Rich Aucoin + superfossilpower @ Petit Campus

Twin Tigers + Sandman Viper Command @ Le Divan Orange

The Decemberists + Wye Oak @ L'Olympia

February 5 2011 // Magazine // Concert Reviews

WHAT? You missed the Decemberists show? Awwwwww nuts! 

Yes, the tickets were pretty damn expensive (35$). Yes, it was cold as hell… and yes, I nearly destroyed a defective parking meter outside the Olympia theatre. If you saw me swearing and kicking machine #Q045, please don’t think any less of me; I was having a “case of the Mondays”.

Joel "Stringbean" Suss

February 4 2011 // DJ Spotlight

Smart, charismatic and dedicated are just a few of the words thrown around when Joel Suss’s name comes up in conversation. A relatively new addition to CJLO, Joel has been a member for just over a year. In the short time that Joel has been on board, his show, The Sports Injection (which he hosts alongside Taimur Tanoli and Ben Wenger) has become a fan favorite. With calls from local fans to those far away, the energy on the show is always positive and the people who call in, although they don’t always agree with the boys, still love and respect them.
