Robert Dayton is here to discuss his book Cold Glitter: The Untold Story of Canadian Glam, our favourite record stores and venues in the conjoined cities of Kitchener-Waterloo, the time Mike Wallace visited that area for a 60 Minutes story and called it “a suburb of Toronto,” what inspired Robert to write this book, some background about the subversive aspects of Canadian glam and how Bryan Adams figures into it, conservatism in Canadian cultural institutions, an anecdote about Gregg Turkington, Mike Love, and Charles Manson, waking up after sleeping on Goddo, future plans, and much more.
