NSTS Episode 078 – Coney Hatch frontman Carl Dixon with Ron MacLean

It doesn’t get much better than this, folks. Coney Hatch frontman Carl Dixon comes back for his second episode, and who should turn up to sit in but our pal Canadian broadcasting icon Ron MacLean!

I love hanging out with these guys, and this episode was a real treat for me to do. Lots of laughs and so many great music and sports stories…Lee Trevino’s response to Tom Watson’s open fly, Gord Downie’s surprise answer when he was asked if he was a poet or a rocker, the song that triggered Phil Esposito’s trade, the challenges Alannah Myles faced on the road, and much more.

All this, and we wrap up with a Tom Petty group singalong with Carl on guitar (I’m the one singing flat). Great fun.

 

Dixon’s playlist:

Queen – Now I’m Here

The Who – The Real Me

The Black Crowes – Descending

Alannah Myles – Sonny Say You Will

Bob Dylan – Simple Twist of Fate
