hiya! in this episode of indie whimsy you’ll hear:

20 years ago Pearl Jam announced a cross Canada tour and my excitement was off the charts. I had been to a few concerts before but never one that was my favorite band. A band that I listened to every day and dreamed of seeing live. September of 2005, I finally got that opportunity as my closest friends and I hopped in a van and drove to Quebec City and Halifax to see Pearl Jam for back to back shows.

On this week’s episode I look at back at that tour and some of the great shows I attended as well as some other highlights from across the country!

Pearl Jam – Hard To Imagine (Live in Halifax)

Episode 11. As usual, songs of various genres spanning the last 5 decades. Cyberaktif will be the artist in this week’s [x] Years Later segment, featuring songs from 1991’s Tenebrae Vision and 2024’s eNdgame.

Thanks for stopping by, I hope everyone had a great week down at Harvest!

This week I’ve got new music from Neil Young, Pitrun and The Burning Hell.
