Radio Gazza - Canadian Radio Update for October 17th, 2008

Everything is back in full swing this week, as the holiday has passed and ratings enter their final throes. Some congratulations go out this week to stalwart Canadian folk-rockers Spirit Of The West, whom Frontside's Vince Ditrich not only manages, but also Drums in. The band is being inducted into the Western Canadian Music Hall of Fame over the weekend, and equally notable, in fact possibly even more notable to some is that the band will not only sing the National anthem at the Oilers/Flames game, but they'll also be appearing as featured guests during the "Satellite Hotstove" during the Hockey Night In Canada broadcast.

Notable:
-Lisa Dolinski moves from the Marketing and Promotions Department of Universal Music Canada to join the PEAK Vancouver as Promotions Co-ordinator
