play list - 04/24/2008

the funny thing about today's show was not the show itself, but that during the show, the host of the next show asked me to be her guest on that show. her planned guest had cancelled. so with only an hour notice, i ended up on the show at noon talking about gun control, LOL. Luckily it was something I'd at least given some thought to, and we had a lot of callers, so it went pretty well.[for the record, i'm for stricter gun control and limiting the proliferation of guns].

hoping to play euro hit 40 next week if I can get the german lyrics cleared.

play list - 04/17/2008

We hit our pledge drive's goal of $100,000 yesterday! so we ended our pledge drive just in time for me to not have to do another pledge drive show.

kathleen and i went to two concerts this week. Last Thursday it was The Wilders opening up for Chicago Afro Beat Project. But most of the crowd was there to see the Wilders, and they stole the show. they were good! And last night we saw reggae. locals Jah Roots, then Mikey General and Luciano. I liked all of them! though i was a little overdosed on reggae by the end.

I did some live censoring so that I could play The Message. Here's the video:

play list - 04/10/2008 - Space show for fund drive

The station encouraged us to make our fund drive show a "special" show, so I did a space/sci-fi theme. I did a non-fund drive show with that theme last year, but I changed many of the songs. And I played a 2 minute interview with Arthur C. Clarke from Pacifica.

I'd say it didn't help attract funds though. I raised about $800, but about half of that came from me, my girlfriend, and other KKFI programmers. Last time I did better, but I also had sent out emails to people, and I had premiums. so I guess I'll do those again next time.

I did some CD looping (of start of robot parade) and some mixing (of sound effects on CD and "up to jupiter" on vinyl) today, so that was fun.
