distress b gone!

Soo much to do and so little to say!

I’m working on remodeling our house and it’s taking up most of my “spare” time so I’m not spending much time on all the other projects I’m involved in.
Music has been taking a “side-car seat” as well as pottery. My job has gotten very slow at the same time so I have more time to work on the house and property but then money is tight and blah blah blah. ( my wife and I are struggling to keep from biting each others heads off  ) If you see mine rolling by please send it back this way!

Distress B Gone!

Went out last night to see Press and The Buddha Magoo at the Capitol Theater play a great benefit show!

5-11-10 play list

More of a jazz experimental, funky tranced out show than is usual as of late, this night. ..and another Elephant set within, this one unrelated to King Crimson :-)
Thanks to HeartTone for reminding me of this Jack DeJohnette Bill Frisell album.

I'll be filling in for the good Dr. T J Hokum this Saturday afternoon and presenting the Audiological Phantasmagoria from 1 to 3pm. Two hours of 20's and 30's swing, jump blues and choice elixirs to put a bounce in your step!

I've become aware of the lack of experimental shows on kaos these days. I know that programing on this station changes with the tide and the school year but there used to be more freeform and out there programing in years past. Perhaps the time for those sort of radio experiments has come and gone or maybe there will be a resurgence in the future, I can't say. Is there anyone else out there who misses totally off the wall quirkiness coming out of there radio sometimes?
