I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlour, drinking milk shakes cold and long, smiling and waving and looking so fine...

You may not immediately recognize the soul siblings pictured above from the monthly 5 Seconds photo parades, but they are two amongst the many without whom this series of spectacle would not have been made possible. In fact, in those very photos, you've been looking through the electric eye of the fellow on the right all this time...

It is fitting then, in putting the final nails in the coffin, that we do so not only on an out-of-body Halloween weekend this Saturday, October 29, but that we also wrap the Local 107.3fm Fundrive, campus radio being yet another of the ironically silent partners in this, our constant muse and the means to dissemination of counterculture in our fair Port City. We've lost great loves in Independent Pages and Ceilings before, and those are heartbreaking moments that leave true and genuine voids in a community.

You can call DJs the rest of this week and pledge your support to your Local programmers at 648-5925, and to your Local staff at 648-5667 and cfmh@unbsj.ca. These are your Local people, and oftentimes, they may even be you.

Most especially this weekend, we bid adieu to our main man, Adam Mowery, who leaves us for new city streets. Please enjoy a wonderful parting shot from Mr. Mowery's recent collaboration with local all-star Adam Kierstead, the live CHSR session They Won't Know Where We Are. Flanked by comrades Hospital Grade and Splooge, we Wooden Wives look forward to a final, epic performance with our fast friend. Our family stays together forever, but personally, I will miss having you stand in my living room whilst records and beer and words flow and swirl like all the world's milk and honey...

We may have further correspondence via these pages, but this weekend will certainly be our last dastardly dance. Please enjoy yet more exclusive audio captured by Mr. Corey Bonnevie (who you hear performing here with his group, Little You Little Me) and please go forth, occupy your own lives, and get your hands filthier in the dirtshit of your communities than you could ever have imagined possible.

Thank you from the pit of our hearts to the literally dozens of people who have collaborated and colluded over these past 5 months. Let this last one be for all the nobody and all the somebody people. Let this last one be for the airwaves.

Fin.
