Hello world!

DON’T BE FOOLED BY THE DATE—THIS BLOG IS ALIVE AND THRIVING!

We moved to Dreamhost and WordPress, and are uploading and tagging all our past shows. This means adding BACKDATED posts and editing old posts, rather than adding new posts. We look forward to adding future shows as they occur.

She’s got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of brain

But it turns out I was wrong, and Guns and Roses are all big feminists.

I can’t tell what is taking place here, aside from puerility and misogyny.

It’s a problem. Well, one we couldn’t resist exacerbating. Here’s a couple hours of preaching to the converted.

I take my card and I stand in line... Sonny, is this where the bingo tournament is?

Radio Radio

Musical meta-radio. Well, there’s a lot of songs about radio, most of them pretty damn cheerful. Are we postmodern yet? Download this fun if effortless mix.

Serious about fun music.
