Zone Music - Quick Look
Every Thursday night at 7:00 pm, we turn the radio over to . . . one of you.
We sit back, get coffee and watch old episodes of M*A*S*H and Full House while you pick the music and do the talking.
Want to have your turn? Apply now!
It's all brought to you by Incendiary Tattoos - show off the fire in your life, on Esquimalt Road at Head Street.
Weekdays at 3:00 pm, you get to hear a British band on The Zone you've probably never heard before with our own Brit, Jon Williams.
Listen for hand-picked music, up-to-date information on British rock and even some unsigned talent.
Give him your thoughts on his choices via electronical mail.
Here is what I played recently...
Monday January 30th: Echotape "Came into my blood".
Tuesday 31st: Futures "Start A Fire".
Wednesday February 1st: We Were Promised Jetpacks "Human Error".
Thursday 2nd: Enter Shikari "Arguing with Thermometers".
Friday 3rd: The Darkness "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us"
If you'd like the past year set list just drop me an email.
Jon :)
Weekdays at 5:00 pm, we only play stuff that's been number one on some chart somewhere, and tell you the story behind it.
Nothing sucky, is what we're saying here.
Number Ones is brought to you by the fine folks at the 5252 Motorsports - Where Torque and Horsepower Meet.
Evening Zoners Jon and Jade take a whole hour of your requests, weekdays at 6:00 pm, via the Zone Phone (250-475-0913). So give him a call, request a song and there's a good chance you'll end up on the radio, too.
You can also e-mail Jon or Jade your request.
It's all brought to you by the Strathcona Hotel, Victoria's main attraction.
Sundays from 8:00-10:00 am, Alan Cross gives you The Secret History of Rock. He's a virtual encyclopedia of modern music, and one of Canada's biggest music nerds. Basically, we're pretty happy to have him around.
Don't worry if you miss the show from the beginning; the two-hour show will be split into a number of topics so that everyone can join in!
If you need your fix between Sundays, listen to The Zone weekdays at 10:50a 5:50p, 10:50p for our Secret History quick hits.
He'll tell you the history of your favourite new band, all about the Manchester scene, and delves into never-before-heard stories and interviews with Nirvana.
Every weekend, Jeremy Baker counts down the top 20 modern rock songs of the week. Good music, guaranteed!
Listen for it Saturdays from 8:00-10:00 am and 4:00-6:00 pm and Sundays from 10:00 pm-midnight
