Neal took me on my first snowboarding experience a few weeks ago, and on our way to the fake-snow-covered landfill that is skiing in SE Michigan, we listened to CBC Radio 3. What a cool show! (And a good way to get my mind off of impending pain. Actually, Neal is a GREAT teacher, and while I never managed to actually turn the snowboard on purpose, I didn’t hurt anyone either.) Immaculate Machine got spun, and I was sold quickly on their late ’80s new wave sound. Plus, I bet they don’t snowboard on other people’s old garbage in British Columbia.
Sharing the sharing.
I live in SE Michigan. Where did you go snowboarding?
Maybe everyone knows this, but Kathryn Calder of Immaculate Machines sang backing vocals for (and toured with) The New Pornographers last year. And that's not all – A.C. Newman is her uncle, although neither of them knew that until recently.
Oh, now I see that it's all on their website.
I'm guessing Brighton,
or should I say..
Mt. Trashmore
Yeah, British Columbia!
But Snowboarding on Michigan's landfills is fun!… Try Mt. Holly out before you complain…
