Play list - 09/27/2007 - Fall Fund Drive

Whew! My fund drive show is over! I was stressing about it, couldn't get to sleep, woke up early, now I'm exhausted. But it went well! Thanks so much to all my friends and everyone else who called in to donate! I think the station as a whole isn't doing great, which is a bummer. but for now, i'm just glad mine is done!

I couldn't find a video to go with today's songs, so I'm going to embed a video I made about Instant Runoff Voting. Not quite as exciting, but important:


And here were my fund drive songs!

Play list - 09/20/2007

My worst...show...ever. Not necessarily the music that was played, but at least from the chaos and technical perspective. One of the mics is not working, which is a pretty big deal since we only have 3 and many shows have more than one guest. And particularly because our pledge drive starts tomorrow and we often have multiple people pitching at a time. So they really wanted to get the mic fixed today, and the electrician just happened to show up right before my show started. So this was the 2nd time I did my show while the electrician was working on the mixing board at the same time, opening and closing the door while I'm on the mic, and even trying to mouth something to me while I'm on the mic, LOL! And I'm having to do tests of the broken mic while on air, so that when it doesn't work (which it didn't) there is just dead air. So lots of dead air today while testing the dead mic. Hopefully we'll get the backup studio working so that we don't have to be working on things while on the air.

Okay, enough whining. here's the video of the day. Its a great one!

Play list - 09/13/2007

i learned how to do something new at the station today. i changed some of the bulbs on the mixing board for the lights that tell you what inputs are active. it definitely helps when the lights are working for that! Of course, in the proecss, i left one CD player in the "off" mode, so when i tried to use it, nothing happened. and i also didn't turn down the turntable volume after the song i played off of a record so the next song on the record accidentally started up. so a couple small mistakes today.

Video for the day: Rodrigo y Gabriela playing Metallica!

Playlist - 09/06/2007

Today was essentially my one year anniversary show! (just a day less). Thanks to Kathleen for pointing that out :-) I thought I played a pretty good show in honor of that. Hardly any phone calls though :-(

I started off with some hip-hop today. Inexplicably, when I was announcing Jurassic 5 I said "Jurassic Park", LOL.

Then I played some more Flight of the Conchords:
