LIVE with Celebrations (from Port Moody)

Going /LIVE on DS106 Radio is always celebration!

You never know what you’re going to hear when you tune in to DS106 Radio. You’ll always hear a great selection of tunes via /AUTODJ, but it gets a whole lot better when someone unexpectedly grabs the stream and goes /LIVE.

It was a late Sunday afternoon and I was in my kitchen preparing our Sunday night dinner when @bryanjack grabbed the DS106 Radio stream. @bryanjack was trying to make his way home from a Saturday night out in Port Moody, which was proving difficult to so. I decided to respond to his broadcast.

Suddenly, his broadcast stopped and then started again. @bryanjack had made it home. I asked him to describe what he saw.  @bryanjack described his surroundings. They matched his Instagrams. Perfect!

I could just make out the sound of wedding reception at Old Orchard Hall. Distant music and happy voices.

Then @bryanjack played some tunes. A perfect soundtrack to a Sunday night meal preparation in the kitchen.

I realised a little too late that I should have been recording his broadcast. So I grabbed my mobile phone, placed it near the speaker of my tablet device and the hit record. Of course there were technical difficulties and the sound quality wasn’t the best, but I managed to record a reasonable amount of his awesome performance.
