International Jam's flavor of the week is: Mike Gordon’s Birthday Blowout (Organic coffee serves in a dope sneaker Local sourced from a no-kill Wook Shelter))
It’s International Jams, it’s Mike Gordon’s birthday, and it’s not Cooter’s. Let’s clear that up immediately.
Nick and Matt touch down in the Niagara Falls ’95 show — a rare Tuesday night when the band dropped Mike’s Song → Weekapaug like it owed them money. The show was so fire it blew snow sideways into Canada. Which counts as international.
Meanwhile, Matt goes full Sudbury historian and unearths Mike’s early roots:
- The Barnstormers (actual name)
- And the legendary mystery of a keyboardist named Derek who may or may not have been too good
Nick tries to suggest Mike’s Song was written by Trey, accidentally triggers a minor musical crisis, and then spirals into a live re-ranking of Mike Gordon originals:
Also in this episode:
- Listener call ins
- lost cat found, collar say HARPUA
- Nick claims Meat is “the sexual language of the mole people”
- Matt confesses he thought Son of a Mule was a Mexican folk song until 2019
And yes — Niagara Falls counts as international barely. We just mist it (get it?).
Happy birthday, Mike.
Thanks for the bass, the chaos, and the sock game.
It’s International Jams. Let’s go.
