Scott Devine of [Devine Shirt Company](http://devineshirtcompany.ca/) is on the podcast to talk band merch and how it’s changed over the years, about the warehouse fire that destroyed his shop along with a number of local bands’ jamspaces, about staying small, local, and DIY, and a whole lot more. I think this is a good companion episode to some of the other music scene-adjacent podcasts I’ve recorded about [show posters](http://witchpolice.com/e/wr125-nyco-rudolph-tiff-bartel-allan-lorde-3544f0a897a32aL/), [music photography](http://witchpolice.com/e/wr203-shoot-first-ask-questions-later-34d42f28b9d132/), etc.!

Sara Stasiuk of Six Shooter Records is on hand to talk about the Rodeo's roots and some of the exciting artists on this year's bill, including Wilco, case/lang/veirs, Lee Fields and the Expressions, Serena Ryder and many more. She's joined by Leonard Sumner, an Anishinaabe MC/singer/songwriter, representing the many talented local acts who are part of the 2016 event. ...
