During my travels across the island last month I placed some of these posters on community boards across Central in different towns including Glovertown, Clarenville, Gander, Grand Falls-Windsor, Deer Lake, and more! We’re trying to spur a movement in the central part of the island to make heavy / loud shows viable in a place that isn’t just St. John’s or Corner Brook.

Moves are already being made in Grand Falls-Windsor, so let’s keep the momentum going! If even one young person sees one of these posters and is inspired to start a band because of it, that’s a win. Together we can grow the culture of heavy music in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Stay tuned for more updates on this Central initiative!

PS: Huge thanks to my friends Aaron, Anthony, and Rain for helping me put these posters up across the island!

On September 25th 1956 the first telephone cable connecting the UK and North America "went live".

At 2,240 miles long, the cable ran from Gallanach Bay, near Oban in Argyll and Bute, to Clarenville, Canada. At the time we only had the one phone company, the General Post Office which didn't become BT until 1980.

Communication between the continents wasn't new, Cyrus Field conquered the ocean with his telegraph cable in 1858. Marconi transmitted successfully the first radio signal from shore to shore in 1901. In 1915 voices sent by radio from Arlington, Va., were heard in Paris. And in 1927, the year of Lindbergh’s superb flight, radio­telephone service was introduced between the United States and The British Isles, the cost of a three minute call at the time was £15!!! This was due to the Transmitters costing an astronomical £500,000 each in 1927.

In 1952, after a newly developed submarine telephone cable proved successful between Florida and Cuba, telephone men of the United States, Britain, and Canada consulted on the feasibility of a transatlantic telephone cable. The types of facilities to be used were reviewed for many months. In a contract dated November 27, 1953, the Bell System, the Post Office and the Canadian Overseas Telecommunication Corporation undertook the international project.

Several types of facilities were used on the new route as it went into service. Telephone calls eastward from the United States will be carried from Portland, Maine, to Sydney Mines, Nova Scotia, over a new radio relay system, thence through a single cable across Cabot Strait to Clarenville, Newfoundland. From that point, calls took a Great Circle route through the deep-sea cables which stretched to Oban. Land circuits completed connections to London and other points in England and Scotland.

In all the cable took 3 years to lay and cost £12.5m.

The first pic shows the line reaching Scotland near Oban, it must have been some job laying it.

Flashback Friday: During our 2006 ride across Canada we stopped at Clarenville Newfound for lunch at Don Cherry’s Sports Grill. The waitress thought our trip was pretty cool & gave us a couple of glasses as souvenirs. 🇨🇦🏍🎥😃👩👍 I wrapped them in a couple of my shirts & packed them in the saddlebags until we got to St.Johns. Mailed them back home to BC from there. @newfoundlandlabrador https://www.instagram.com/p/Ckjl4rHv_UH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
