I DJed my last WTJU show for the foreseeable future today. It was a lot of fun and I will really miss it. Here’s what I played…

It was an all-star line-up on WTJU last night; all 3 nailgun writers in the studio for Radio Wowsville and The Eclectic Mayhem. I think we were all pretty tired by the end of it (it’s been a long weekend), but it was a lot of fun. Check out the playlists below:

I must atone for my transgressions:  the name of the band is actually CORSAIR (singular) rather than THE CORSAIRS.  Apparently everyone has been getting it wrong and I can’t help but feel that Nailgun is partially responsible.  I thought that it was like they were all in a band and each one of them was [...]

Fun times on the radio last night; I subbed for Black Circle Revolution (with help from Paul) and then stuck around while John B. did the Interesting Times Tribune. Check the Playlists below…

Kaveh has a post over on audiozine.org about meeting and seeing Nels Cline when he came to town to play The Paramount at the beginning of June. It includes a great writeup about meeting Nels, as well as live recordings of the two sets that the Nels Cline Singers played [...]

There’s a pretty awesome line-up playing at Dust on Friday night:
Corsairs are a new 70’s-rock /metal-style act, led by Marie from Mass Sabbath. The Wiles are some nice semi-local boys who do 20-min surf-rock jams.

I saw these guys play at the Tea House with [...]

There’s going to be a pretty sweet show at the Tea House tonight.  I don’t know much about Sharron Kraus or United Bible Studies, but I’ve heard good things about both and I’m eager to see them play.
…however, the main reason I’m excited about the show is that I’m totally thrilled to see Kohoutek again. [...]
