I’ll Rub ‘Til It Comebacks

On the February 28, 2013 edition of the 68Comeback Special, we bade farewell to a pope, made amends for a long-ago slight, made amends for a more recent slight, waited patiently for whatever it was we were waiting for and celebrated the human embodiment of fear that is Zebra Pulse.

Every Time I Sit Around I Find I’m 68Comeback

On the February 7, 2013 edition of the 68Comeback Special, we inadvertently relived 1994, celebrated the glory of the girl drummer and hazarded a guess or two about what might be found inside a 13 year old’s mouth – at least we did until we lost our nerve. And that’s a royal ‘we’, too, by the way. Tom is a busy man and he can’t always be there when we need him. The Cat’s In the Cradle and all that, right?

If you can believe it, January 2013 is over. We kicked it to the curb with the January 31 edition of the 68Comeback Special, using only our bare hands and shitty attitudes. It was surprisingly, appallingly easy, too. Good riddance to you, January 2013. You wasted your only chance.

Merde

So there I was, all ready to finish up the track list from yesterday’s 68Comeback Special show and post it right here so that whoever it is that likes to read lists of songs could come here and read ours, when I noticed a problem: the list had disappeared. There’s a paper copy of it at CJSR, but fat lotta good that’ll do when I’m at home, so…merde.

So here – instead of a track list from the January 25, 2013 68Comeback Special radio show, we offer you a live video of my favourite Jesus Lizard song.

P.S. Dear Somebody, COVER THIS SONG!

Hitch Your 68Comeback To A Reliable Horse

Holy cripes, this was just too much. The 68Comeback Special has trod close to the line on plenty of previous occasions, but this show – ear worms and how to cure them, dinner theatre, how Les Savy Fav’s 3/5 album could change your life, even at this late date, if you would only let it into your heart – the January 10, 2013 edition went too far. It was just too good, and for that, we are definitely truly sorry.

I Wanna Rock The 68Comeback Between The Reds And Greens On Cruise Night

It was the last show of 2012, this December 27 edition of the 68Comeback Special. Taking his chance to do it all by himself as Craig busied himself with getting ready for Christmas 2013, Tom offered up an extended feature on pig knuckles, offered his predictions on where the New Year’s baby would be born, how long it would live and how many times it would marry, and talked extreme trash about every single one of the following artists. Did you miss it? For shame.

Thousandsticks – Climbin’
SNFU – The Electric Chair
Bleachers – Sharks
John Guliak and the Lougan Brothers – Streets of Baltimore
Jessica Pratt – Half Twain the Jesse
Shout Out Out Out Out – This Isn’t Helping
