I get some notes from Jay Hollingsworth. (Sorry about the nerd
comment, Jay.) He sends me a schedule. Thanks! Now I know what is
happening when. Looking forward to hearing Alan Smason, at least
initially, Shep and Jay. See how nostalgic it gets.
I check in again at ~3pm, NY time. The stream is working. I guess
Rockin' Ruth is on now. Playing FUV style R&R.
She comes on. It was Dash Rip Rock and Camper Van Beethoven before
that (I only heard the end of Dash Rip Rock.) I think she said her
name was Kathy.
She plays some straight jazz so I can have lunch (and not have to pay
attention to it...)
And now Maureen joins her. She plays Michael Franti so it won't be jazz. Good.
More happy peppy, FUV in the 80s music.
Nice Iko Iko.
Woman DJ (Kate?) comes on, her level is lower than the CD.
Next mic break she's at a good level. Although Maureen is pinning it,
overmodulating.
Nice Brazilian Rebel, Rebel (Bowie)
Bluegrass version of Fleetwood Mac's Landslide. (Dixie Chicks, ick)
This is Ruth Preslaff. Maureen's level is low.
Wow, a long silence between the Peter Gabriel and Talking Heads cuts.
I checked to make sure the stream didn't die.
So, in summary, nice enough music overall. Indicative of intelligent,
sensitive people, a crowd I liked to be with. Wish they'd get their
act together on their production values though. Different levels
between music and DJ and off-mic DJs are two examples. And I have
noticed this happening for YEARS.
(I'm having internet connectivity problems so I lose the stream and
have to reboot, which seems to fix it. Unfortunately this happens a
few times a day now...)
Stream goes quiet but is still there at 5:01 pm NY time. I guess they
don't know they've killed the output to the stream... Oh well. A good
time to go out and check the mail...
5:15 and the stream is still running but has no program content.
Oops. I guess they don't monitor it. I'll keep it on in case they
figure this out.
5;18 it comes on mid sentence then Brian Jonestown Massacre... OK.
Barney Kilpatrick on now.
Barney comes across well. David comes on and sounds like he just
passed puberty.
Fred Neil and Leo Kotke. Alright. Wall of Death after by...REM? Sure, why not.
A bluegrass tune. Well alright. (Steve Earle and Del McCoury)
Bottle of Blues by... (Beck)
A new version of Magic Bus. Just what the world needed. (By Duran Duran)
Nice screaming and efx in this tune.
A good DJ, Interesting stuff.
(Level is lower for Bevis Frond tune after mic break...)
Oh, a good segue. Whatever (Bevis Frond?) into Hendrix - Hear My Train Coming.
Iggy Pop - The Passenger
This next show should be interesting: "Paula 'go ahead & shut 'er
down, fcc!' o" o?
Kerry, Paula, Mark on now. (Is that what was on the schedule?) Too
bad they aren't all on-mic..
Punk stuff. No thanks. I watch the news.
I start listening later, 8 pm NY time and it ain't punk now. Very
interesting stuff. The Propellerheads.
They overmodulate as they do the ID.
Nah, don't like this next one. I watch Washington Week In Review...
8:24 NY time. Interesting accordion piece on.
Tom Waits - Straight To The Top. They cut off the song in the middle. Jeez.
8:55 pm. A world full of cops!
9:01 NY time. ken on the early evening shift? (Yes, I think.) Starts
with a nice Richard Thompson cut. Scratchy record but a good cut.
DJ sounds competent.
This Music isn't my cup of tea so I'll check back later.
Ken ends his show. Bimbo's on next. We'll see what she's like.
The cool tool/TUL! lol Lots of sexual innuendo. Funk. OK. No need to
stay for this.
Boogie In Your Butt! Well alright.
Looking forward to seeing if DJ Davis is a) the one I am thinking of
who started the Brass Band Jam on OZ and b) will play some brass band
music. I have Radio Recorder set to record the show which is airing
MUCH too early for me to listen to live.
