The Revolutionary Qualities Of The Cure’s “Mint Car”

The Cure enjoy mint cars

Risky Fuel operatives are most excited to add another new friend to our gang — AUX TV.

The digital channel and website with the fightingest spirit thought Sarah’s essay about The Cure’s happy-go-lucky song “Mint Car” would, somehow, be perfect as part of their Revolutionaries Month content series. We applaud this bravery and believe it should be celebrated… by actually reading the story and getting them some click-throughs. To do so, surf over here.

Chris Isaak Will Sing To You In Interviews

Chris Isaak

Chris Isaak

Update: With Spinner Canada now RIP I’ve unearthed this story here.

Chris Isaak serenaded Aaron last week. Maybe it was because Aaron got a new haircut, maybe it’s because that’s just what Isaak does in media interviews. Either way we’re pretty sure Abro is man-crushing about the whole thing. And really, who could blame him? It’s CHRIS ISAAK.

Anyway, Aaron wrote a story for Spinner Canada about how Isaak thinks if you want to do old time rock ‘n’ roll, you better not be a crap singer.

We agree. And you can read more about it by clicking here.

Also, lest we forget.

Of Rascal Flatts, Natasha Bedingfields, And Boots

If we told you that country stars Rascal Flatts and pop starlet Natasha Bedinfield would do a song together, that’s one thing.

But for Risky Fuel operatives to talk them and write about it for something called, The Boot? Well, that’s an entirely different world altogether.

But that’s just what Sarah did. You can read her story by clicking here.

Honeymoon Suite

That’s right, Honeymoon Suite, Gino Vannelli and Spirit Of The West came together in one beautiful rainbow of remembered songs from the past when Sarah wrote about their participation in the CBC show Cover Me Canada for the AOL Music Blog.

Anyone remember “Wave Babies”? That was a song, wasn’t it?

UPDATE: Because Spinner is RIP, this story has now been unearthed here.

On Saturday Feist played a special “return” show in honour of her new album Metals at CBC’s Glen Gould Studio in Toronto.

There were all kinds of special guest stars like that guy from Wilco, that guy from Grizzly Bear, that other guy from The Hidden Cameras, and a bunch of others.

Aaron wrote about it for Spinner Canada. You can read about it by clicking here.
