Hellooooo! I mean, Hello. How are you? This week on the Breakfast Club, I'm meeting with an enigmatic, super talented power-folk-rocker from Hamilton, Ontario who goes by the handle Wax Mannequin! Strange and brooding, normal and cheery, Wax has just made an astonishing new record for Zunior called Saxon and it's getting its own release show at the Horseshoe Tavern tonight!

Wax had initially suggested we head over to Sneaky Dee's for breakfast today but I nixed that quick; as I discovered with Spiral Beach, that joint isn't open early enough for this show. So, on Pedro's recommendation, we're planning on meeting at Mitzi's on College, a place neither of us have been before, to see what they can do for us and our tummies. He's coming in from Hamilton, me from Guelph. It's like a race to the death, except in this case death is just a plate of invariably yellow food and also neither of us is in charge of our modes of transport. Still, one of us might die on the show so tune in!

Do you believe that Wax Mannequin is the best? What about that Saxon, huh? Pretty impressive! What are you having for breakfast today?
