The Village S.T.O.P. has been played on NTS in shows including Brown Acid Trippin' w/ Lance Barresi of Permanent Records, featured first on 15 August 2024. Songs played include Vibration.

'The Village S.T.O.P.' was is a heavily Hendrix-influenced fuzzy band 68-69 and according to Museum Of Canadian Music the band was Fraser Loveman, Paul Marcoux, Nick Urech, Steve Urech and Jim Hall. It's stated in a couple of places including MOCM that UK-born singer Fraser Loveman was previously a member of The British Modbeats, later on he starred in theater shows of "Hair" and "Annie Get Your Gun". There is more info on that site relaying stories of The Village S.T.O.P. performing a revolutionary 'freak out' section of their live set where the lights would go out and the band would whip their clothes off to reveal luminously-painted bodies (sometimes naked apparently) and do crazy dances.

Here's a quote from Fraser, found at MOCM: http://www.mocm.ca/music/Title.aspx?TitleId=318144 "Niagara bands were so overlooked and under-produced Ha! Ha! We appeared naked with just flourescent body paint (black light). We were huge on the eastern seaboard. Then Alice Cooper stole our act. But I'll tell ya one thing - The Village STOP outplayed anybody and put on a show like you wouldn't believe. We played gigs where major acts refused to go after us. The sheer force, colour, acrobatics and staging was unparralled at the time. The pix speak for themselves!"
