October 24, 2010 - Loaded by Lunchtime
Listeners were plied with an intoxicating treat on this week's Free Kick show: a live session from members of Montreal's Velvet Underground tribute, Loaded! Patrick, Jordi and Allan (pictured here) regaled us with some of VU's best-loved tunes in a stripped-down acoustic format, generating much needed white light/white heat to power this first of our CKUT 2010 Funding Drive shows.
