had a guest dj today - brad bruce. so he did the first hour of music, then i did the 2nd hour. i played from the nickodemus new release, sun people. also, i just got the latest cd from amadou & miriam, so was excited to play from that too.
went to see they might be giants do their "flood" concert last week. it was awesome. i don't think i've ever seen so many fans singing the words to every song.
parents are visiting, so that's all for this week.

took a break from the religion interviews this week, so i played 2 full hours of music for the first time in a couple months. started with some christian hip-hop though, courtesy of krs-one. then played more hip-hop including lady sovereign, whose cd i just got recently and really like. i also made sure to get some chromeo in just so i had an excuse to post a video from their appearance on yo gabba gabba! "Pete, did you wash your hands before touching these keyboards?", "Yes", "Did you????", "No :-("

also, they might be giants are in town tomorrow doing a special "flood" show so i played a couple tracks form that cd. too bad i didn't put more effort into getting free tickets to give away this year like i did last year. just didn't get around to it, sorry everyone. but i bought our tickets today, should be a great show!

05/14/2009 - play list - roman catholicism
interviewed Robert Bacic about roman catholicism today. i tried to focus more on things specific to the catholic church than on christianity in general. so we talked about priests, bishops, popes, the sacraments, saints, and more.
before that i played some euro hit 40, a funny song about karate kid 2, and more from staff bend bilili, which is a group of paraplegic musicians from the democratic republic of the congo that play homemade/handmade instruments.

play list - 05/07/2009 - Hinduism
Kris Krishna joined me on the show today to talk about Hinduism. i found it very interesting that he pointed out that Christianity is very similar to Judaism because Christ was originally Jewish, and Buddhism is very similar to Hinduism because Buddha was originally a Hindu. Next week's discussion will be on Roman Catholicism.
i was happy to play "music for a found harmonium" which I've had in my head many times and never knew what it was until recently. i think i knew it from napolean dynamite. here's a pretty sweet live version:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJg1NNyke2E
another highlight for me today was a spanish/mexican version of "bittersweet symphony" by mexican institute of sound.

play list - 04/30/2009 - Spring Fund Drive
thursday's fund drive show did not go too well for me. i'm pretty sure i raised the least amount of money that i've rasied on my show during a fund drive in the last 3 years. not sure if its the economy, or not enough listeners, or some other unlucky circumstances. pretty discouraging though. hopefully others at the station are doing better on their shows. thanks very much to those of you who did call in to donate though, i appreciate it!
the better part of the day was that right after my show my girlfriend and i drove 4 hours to saint louis to see flight of the conchords in concert. they were excellent. started off the show coming out in their robot costumes and preformed "too many dicks on the dance floor". had some great light effects too. and the theater that it was in, the fox, was incredible with the old detailed architecture and decorations. they went on to play just about all the songs from their albums, plus a few others, and some from season two. and finished off with a great synchronized dance rendition of "sugar lumps". awesome and hilarious show. then the next day we went to forest park, the bascilica cathedral, and the arch.
started off the show with an edited version of beck's "time bomb". i'd had that song stuck in my head due to the following hilarious video, the hollywood high five montage.
