Music Milestones YYZ welcomes author and hockey/music veteran Kevin Shea for a wide‑ranging conversation that weaves together Canadian radio, arena rock history, and hockey lore. Kevin traces his path from Windsor radio superfan to record‑label promo rep, Hockey Hall of Fame staffer, author of 22 hockey books (with a 23rd on the way), and creator of Road Hockey to Conquer Cancer, which has raised nearly $33 million. He previews his new passion project: a book on the musical legacy of Maple Leaf Gardens, built from first‑person concert memories.

Kevin and hosts Scot Turner and Ivar Hamilton trade stories about legendary high‑school and arena shows, from Alice Cooper and David Bowie to Blue Rodeo and Nirvana—including Kevin’s infamous diaper stunt to break “Smells Like Teen Spirit” at CHOM-FM in Montreal. We touched on Leafs/Team Canada storylines, CFNY’s Spirit of Radio documentary tour, club culture at RPM, and tributes to recently departed cultural figures.
