XHM #122 - "Batting .000 or infinity" (2012 July 02)

7:30am - 9:03am

For this Canadian long weekend, Michael Brook's score to the baseball film Sugar gets profiled. Hip hop, Neil Young covers and droning covers the other bases (ha). For the record, Vancouver is hording all the cold grey clouds with the precious water everyone else needs. We apparently don't want our craptastic spring to ever end.
