The PopCast with Andrew Rose
Pop Montreal's podcast, 2005–2008. Montreal music as it happened — 53 episodes, 322 chapters, 29 hours of it, with the original artwork that changed as you listened.
[Andrew's intro goes here.]
Jack Dylan, Pop Montreal 2007, Issue #2
Nothing on the PopCast matches that. The pigeon looked everywhere.
2005
The PopCast starts on September 1, a month before the festival, with an episode every few days through festival week, and closes the year with a three-part look back at 2005.
