Seriously with the "& More" for the brilliant guest stars at this taping: This night featured all the above mentioned in the vid title, plus Allan Hawco and Joséphine Jobert (co-stars of the CBC show "St. Pierre"), NL trad icons Shanneyganock, Inuk opera singer Deantha Edmunds (accompanied by both piano and a pair of Inuk throat singers), Corner Brook's own scribbler-loving Trent McClellan (also a 22 Minutes mate of Mark Critch's), and drag artists Gravy and Tara Nova (the former also with a close Critch relationship - as in Dad and Kid).

No, all of it isn't here in this video because that would be too long and it will all eventually be up on Q's Youtube channel anyway. And it can all be heard on the radio even sooner than that. What is here right now are the selections listed above. Speaking as someone who's been to a pile of tapings for radio and TV (growing up in LA, it's kind of a thing), this was one of the all-time best nights out for a taping. Enjoy this, but absolutely watch/listen to the whole show when you can to see/hear how NL thoroughly rocked Q. Is anyone surprised by that? Arts & Culture Centre, ,St. John's, NL. November 8, 2025

Note: YouTube has informed me that this video is blocked in 2 places because of the snippet otf Nickelback that's played during the Jam Or Not A Jam clip: Russia and Belarus, I assume in support of Ukraine. No Nickelback for you, Putin! No great tunes or laughs either...your loss.
