yeah, i'm still here

well, i haven't abandoned this site quite yet, although it seems so, i'm sure. you can now find my playlists for each show at the kkfi website: www.kkfi.org. just click on the signal to noise link on the kkfi schedule and you'll be taken to the latest playlist. i generally have them up within a couple of days of the show. in other news, lonesome cowboy bill will be guesting on next sunday's show. we'll also be doing a four hour slot on kjhk in lawrence on saturday the 12th of january from 8 pm till midnight. just the shift for us... i also now have a minimal site in myspace. check it out under "signal to noise." or don't--it's not very complete yet. i'll also do two other saturday shows from 4-8 pm on kjhk, saturday the 5th and 19th of january. caroline will join me for the first one and harry may do the last one with me. you can listen via audio streaming at the kjhk website. i wish i could say i was optimistic about the new year, but i can't. too much blood under the bridge from last year, and the cause of that blood is still in office for another bloody year. i did send a copy of a special show to the troops in iraq, specifically to a medic who was a former dj at wcni radio in new london, ct. he also was a listener of my show and moby's trip at kkfi. it was a high point of my year when i got word back that our shows were well received there, even by those who didn't necessarily agree with our stance on the war. they caused lots of dialog between the soldiers, which is always a good thing. thanks again to all the listeners who supported this show last year. i'm still blown away by your support and kind words. it keeps me doing this show through those times when i sometimes think it's not worth it. it is worth it, thanks to you. hope you all had a happy holiday and a merry crimble.
