In this version of ‘The Artist Lounge’ we are on the search for our guests who had been lost in the transit maze in Vancouver. Eventually the stars aligned and we had a great show with the Autumn Portrait, Marisa Chandler and Deb Thompson. We talk about things creative, explore the post-Olympic glow and the topic of Nationalism.

Here’s the archived broadcast from March 2nd. This may take a moment to load

The Cost is too High not to Love - Adaline


On Tuesday Feb 23rd, CJSF had our Homelessness Marathon broadcast segment. The guests included; Montana King a local artist, as well as musicians Rick, Star and Derek all from the Olympic tent village on East Hastings. The conversations were intimate, engaging and entertaining. Rick, a true performer sang his heart out; you could feel the love for his new-found musical friends. Star who is 17 and who had been homeless for four years, struck me as someone who has already gone through the life experience of a 40-year old, she was mature, articulate and reflective. Derek, from Montreal filled the room with his rock star voice.

Montana, someone who I knew peripherally, blew me away with her words; she was captivating in describing her life experience. She had talked about the concept of the two worlds and how people should be left to live their lives, but respect and dignity is something everyone should have. One of the most memorable lines from her was “If you don’t ever fall in love with a flower, as an artist you will never ever learn to paint, love really doesn’t cost a thing”. The parallels to the human experience is stark, really if we can’t find a way to love and value other’s lives how can we live our own with any sense of value.

Adaline, who was a musical co-host and inspired by the event, captured this in a song she wrote only hours before our broadcast, “The Cost is too High not to Love”

The real cost of homelessness is peoples lives. A home is a safe psychological place as well as a physical one and everybody has a right to both. In essence it’s as much about compassion as it is about construction.

Ryan Fletcher and I down at the Red Tent City in Vancouver DTES. A tent city was erected in one of downtown Vancouver’s empty lots on Monday Feb 15th. The lot owned by Concord Pacific was intended to be a parking lot for VANOC vehicles during the games has been occupied by members of the community. As of Wednesday Feb 17 there were about 200 people staying at the tent site and a statement to the number of homeless in Vancouver and the call for more low income and social housing within the city. We spoke with some of the people in tent city, their views on the protest and how the homeless have been treated with the games in town.

Another jam packed episode of ‘The Artist Lounge’, in studio was local musician Ben Sigston and artist Eileen Soo. After fumbling around with the phone system we checked in by phone with, author and media poet Heather Haley. We reached out long distance with CJSF Programmer Gleyse de Franca who is in Brazil enjoying the sights and sounds of Carnaval in Salvador Bahia. Although brief we caught her in some nightclub, it sounded like she was having a grand ol time.

Don’t forget to check out Eileen’s work in the CARDED show @ the Jacana Gallery and Ben Sigston’s upcoming shows.

HOMELESSNESS MATTERS

CJSF 90.1FM issues a call-out for Vancouver’s Homeless Musicians to perform in a Live Radio Event.


CJSF Campus/Community radio is calling for homeless musicians in the lower mainland to contact the radio in order to take part in this year’s Vancouver segment of the Homelessness Marathon broadcast.

On Tuesday, February 23 from 8-10 pm, the W2 Culture + Media House at 112 West Hastings will be the location for the Vancouver segment of the national Homelessness Marathon. The event will be hosted by Ryan Fletcher of CJSF’s Melodies in Mind and Jay Peachy, local artist with DTES Gallery Gachet and producer of Sound Therapy Radio, an arts and mental health program also on CJSF.

As an artist and mental health advocate, Peachy sees hosting homeless musicians on the program as a personal mission:

“They relate to me personally as an artist and a mental health advocate, and they are also my friends,” said Peachy adding that this year’s show has even more importance because of the homelessness issues surrounding the Olympics.

The Homelessness Marathon is a 14 hour national community/campus radio program featuring the voices and stories of homeless people in the United States and Canada. In Canada, the program is carried out by over 40 different community radio stations and is available for free to all non-commercial broadcasters online.

Alongside CJSF, CITR and Co-Op Radio will also be taking part in this year’s Marathon.

The deadline for musicians to contact the station is Sunday, Feb 21. The artists can reach the station by phone at 778-782-4423; by email at [email protected]; or by leaving a message for CJSF at 112 W. Hastings.
