While waiting in the lounge we met up with local award winning playwright Gary Kirkham . He was on the show to support the production of his play, “Falling: A Wake”, now playing at the Registry Theatre in Kitchener.

I had the good fortune of running into an old friend, Rob Daniels , at the CKWR station. Rob and I worked on a Film titled “The Dead Water” by Peter Conrad back in 1993.
Rob is the host of the radio show called Vision In Sound. “Each week Visions In Sound host Rob Daniels takes you on a journey through the music of Movies, TV and Video Games. Whether it’s Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Howard Shore, Shirley Walker, Hans Zimmer or someone new you haven’t heard before you’ll find them here on Visions In Sound. However, it’s not just the music as Rob also provides in depth interviews with the composers and special features on upcoming releases or celebrations of Film, TV and Video Game music of the past.”
