Tonight as I reached Canadian border patrol I turned on the radio, which I never do because there is nothing but crap on FM but I digress. I hear the voice of The Man! Tight Black Rubber. As I'm pulling in front of the border guard, I'm fiddling with the radio trying to determine what station it is that's playing Frank. The border guard's asking for my passport and I'm excusing myself "just for a minute" and peering at the radio to jot down the frequency. Then the dj comes on and I start ignoring the suddenly (and understandably) annoyed border guard so I can determine whether it's a French station or one in the States. Finally I decide it's best not to get arrested in the name of Frank (though what a great cause!) and I turn off the radio and by the time I get through the border I can't raise the station again.
I think it was 101.5 FM -- Czar or anybody else in Quebec know of such a station?
What a thrill to hear his voice, especially when Monkey's just about the only song of his one hears on the radio.

Wow a close shave with the law. Kathryn you very nearly had a brush with a different kind of tight rubber altogether.

101.5 FM is CIBL, a French community radio. I'm surprised their signal reaches the border. CKUT (McGill) and CISM (UdM) must also play him.

haha!
ya, you should have told the guard to jump in the car and have a listen to tight black rubber. boarder guards are people too. worst thing that could have happened would have been a body cavity search.

Thank you, Czar!
Fu, border guards may be people too but they are people who shouldn't know about the undeclared red wine inside my car, Frank or no Frank.
