A couple of quick notes before the podcast comes on Monday.

The pic you see in this entry is one from the Ziggy Marley photos I took on Labor Day.

Exciting news! I'm part of the PodShow Sirius block on Sirius Satellite Radio. The show airs this Tuesday, I'm on at 8:30pm eastern between A Girl A Guy and a Bottle and Yeast Radio.

During this weeks podcast, MPAD#63, I'll tell you a way you can get this special show without having Sirius.

Labor Day has come and past, football is on, and it's already getting cold! That must mean the new Fall TV season is here and the good news is I'm there to let you know what's worth watching!

I meant to put up a blog entry a few days earlier in the week, but time just slipped by me. If you don't know by now, I'm not a "Podcast Award Winner" but I am still happy to have been nominated and appreciate all those that voted. This episode I spend some time reviewing my experience seeing the Church and Rob Dickinson. I also talk about "magic acoustic moments," those songs that have an acoustic version out there that touch you in some way the orginal never did. If you have a song that's done this to you be sure to email me or leave me a voice message at 206-202-2643.

It's amazing how we can get so wrapped into all the different goings on with the media, we can lost site of little pieces of news that mean so much. Arthur Lee of (Arthur Lee & Love) died on August 3rd. from lukemia. He led a troubled life filled with a few tremendous songs and seemed on the brink of a comeback for the past few decades. "Forever Changes," both the original and live version rank high in my music collection and I plan on playing them again this week. Do yourself a favor and listen to "You Set the Scene" and give the man his due.
On a happier note, I'm seeing The Church at the Magic Bag on Sunday. This should be an excellant show you will hear more about on MPAD. Remeber this week's show is the big interview with Gary Numan. And, one more day of voting for me to win a podcast award!

I mixed my show a bit differently this week and I like the results, let me know what you think. And, please remeber to vost for me at the Podcast Awards daily until August 11. Remember, next week's show will feature my conversation and music by Gary Numan!

This has been one crazy week. I've been incredibly busy but a couple of amazing things happened I want to tell you about. On Monday I saw Gary Numan live. I've mentioned it before, but if you don't know already, Gary Numan is my favorite artist. Yes, even above Morrissey! Having a podcast gave me the opportunity that very few people get to realize - I got to interview Gary Numan. We had a great discussion on his tour and career which will air on MPAD#58 on August 14.
On this week's show MPAD#57, I'll be talking about my experience at the show, reviewing "So You Want to Be a Superhero" and the latest issue of Q magazine. I'll go ahead and tease you with a couple of bands I'll be featuring -- Aberdeen City and My Robot Friend. So, make sure to check out MPAD#57 at mostpeoplearedjs.podshow.com on August 7.
Lastly, don't forget to keep voting for me daily at the Podcast Awards for best "Cultural/Arts" show. Thanks to all of you that have been voting.

I hope none of you out there had any problems downloading all 3 parts to MPAD#50. I'm the last person to try and push technology, but with that episode I tried to put out 3 rss feeds at once. So, let me know what you thought of my experiment, and definitely let me know if you experienced any  problems dowloading it.

I've read a couple of comics this week --

Shadowpact#1 - I love magic comics, so, of all the new DC comics, this is the one I was most looking forward to - and it doesn't disappoint. This is the first comic by Bill Willingham who also does a fabulous job on the artwork. The 2nd issue is out this week and I'll definitely be picking it up.

The Astonishing XMen "Gifted" TPB - I have every issue of this new series of Astonishing XMen by Joss Whedon, and I've finally gotten around to start reading some of it. The first issue was terrific with a nice introduction to the book and the direction Whedon is taking the group. The  artwork is outstanding and Whedon's humor and knack for snappy dialog is alive and well. Which makes me say - why'd I wait so long to start?

 

Warning! This is not a typical Most People Are DJs Episode. This is my 50th episode celebration - a mix cd for the summer for my MPAD listeners. There are 3 files to this episode - The Summer Jam Parts I and II and the compilers commentary track for the third file. All the files fit neatly on 80 minute blank CDR - so burn and enjoy!

On the way home from work I picked up Morrissey's "Ringleader of the Tormentors". I opted not to get the expanded package which included a DVD video but not much else. I also picked up the CD single for "You Have Killed Me". This is worth getting for their cover of the New York Dolls' "Human Being", plus 2 songs not on the CD.
Check out the positive review on Pitchfork (They're known for their biting criticisms so this was unexpected.)

And, I play a media clip from the vidcast of the new expanded Sin City DVD.
