11 Radio Luxe could have a whole article to itself. It was an essential element of the Western Front's early years. Each play would be conceived and brainstormed at uproarious group meetings. Poets, school teachers, artists and housewives were all members. People would come back to the next meetings with bits of script already composed. The final script would usually be edited by Patrick. After a couple of rehearsals the play would be performed as a live event, with lots of sound effects using rice, glass, cardboard, rocks, etc., and recorded at the same time. We recorded over a dozen plays between 1975 and 1978. They had names like The Clear Cut Case, A Bite Tonight (the worlds longest radio play), Soni's Boner, The Raw and the Plucked, Yalp, 87-EMPTY (the world's shortest radio play, done for Byron Black's answering machine), etc. Radio fever even caught on in Toronto. After the production og Murder in Fog at A Space in September, 1975, The Hummer Sisters got together with Victor Coleman and John Bentley Mays to produce Audiothon, a three hour extravaganza with appearances by Raoul Duguay, the Four Horsemen and William Burroughs. The edited tapes of these plays would be aired on the fledgling Vancouver Co-operative Radio, and I think that's how we were eventually invited to do a regular show.  H
