play list - 09/30/2010 - pledge drive 2 of 2

today, i had jim zinn sit in with me as a pitch partner on the show.  thanks jim!  unfortunately, we didn't do much better than winston apple and I did last week, which wasn't very good.  hopefully the station will find a show or programmer that does better in that time slot since i'll only be hosting it a couple more months.  i've been doing it for four years now and its been a great experience, but i'm ready to give someone else a shot at it and move on to something else.  i'll still be volunteering there, and maybe even will cover for people's shows sometimes.

anyway....jim brought a bunch of music so that was fun, kinda a half guest dj show.  we played some electronic, some stuff from 60's, some modern funk/soul, and a few others.  one of the 60's songs i played was a cover of daytripper done by sergio mendes and brasil 66 on vinyl:



i also got 2 pairs of tickets to give away next week to los straitjackets!  that show is in a few weeks and deadmau5 is monday!

play list - 09/23/2010 - pledge drive 1 of 2

today was the start of the fall 2010 pledge drive.  starting day shows have not done well for me money-raising wise, and this one was no exception.  winston apple helped me as a pitch partner, so that made it more enjoyable (thanks winston!).  hopefully i'll do better next week, as i have in the past.

since winston's latest album is all bob dylan covers, i decided to play all covers and remixes of classic rock and folk songs.  one that i've played a few times is this amusing mashup of "stairway to heaven" and "gilligan's island"

play list - 09/09/2010

i've had the song "bed intruder" stuck in my head for 2 days now. i didn't play it on my show because the material is kinda strange.  its made from video news footage of a guy reacting to an attempted rape.  of course, rape isn't funny, so that's the bad part.  but this guy's *reaction* and his threats to the rapist are funny.  and when you take that, and put it to music, as these kids from brooklyn did, it becomes quite funny.  and congrats to them for getting about 100,000 purchases on itunes and crediting mr. dodson as one of the writers so that they are all making a few thousand dollars from this great song and video.


so on to the show... today was euro hit 40 with katy perry's "califonia gurls" as #1.  sweet.  and i did the surf music followed by esquivel series again.

off next week while biking in colorado.  week after that is the start of the fund drive.  sweet.

play list - 09/02/2010

whoops, forgot to post my play list yesterday.  coincidentally i received two cd's of surf-rock type music in past two weeks from two of the cool labels that send me music at the station.  one was by "los straitjackets", a band of guys who wear mexican wrestling masks when they play, often while wearing suits, lol.  but they're actually from nashville.  that was from yeproc.  the other really is a mexican band called "matorral man". that was from nacional records.  so i started the show with those two.  got into some 80's stuff, some more funk and then electronic. deadmau5 is coming to kc in october, i want to get tickets next week, should be a cool show.

here are los straitjackets doing a song from some crazy looking movie called psycho beach party:
