I'm so excited we got to play Helmet on today's show. "Unsung" is one of my (and Matthew's) favorite songs of all time! Listen in to next week's show for more music from their drummer, John Stanier.
Also, as we previewed on today's show, we are expanding from one hour to two starting next Sunday, June 22. We'll do the regular Connect the Dots portion from 5-6pm and from 5-7pm, we'll highlight bands who'll be playing live in the Chicago area in the next week. There will be band interviews, info on gigs, and samples of music from a selection of bands. Thanks to Derek Poteat of The Ahleuchatistas and Jacque Harper from the Chicago Bass Ensemble for being on today's show.
