A show with a vibe centred around a chat with Adam McGrath of the Eastern. Townes, Bob Dylan, Son Volt, Anna Tivel for some folkyness. Then new tunes from The Felons, Bohannons, Mary Battiata & Cory Brannan. A big chat with Adam about his current tour and show at the Tuning Fork on June 8th, and playing a bit of Upper Hutt Posse in his honour. ( That ain't no Hank WIlliams song ! ) And then tapering off with Some crazy old 70's rednecks, back on the protest vibe Billy Bragg and Wilco and heaps more in between.
Rob and Kris driving The Retreat at full speed, down a long and dusty highway, running down a dream. Regular features covered, and Finn is in from 16 Tun (with special gate crasher Saturday Afternoon Sarah) for another informative and delicious Flagon Wagon. Kris spends much of the show trying to play songs for Rob to keep him happy in Sam's absence.
