As I try to get all my stuff done for the show this Friday I've made this a short episode. But that doesn't mean it isn't packed full of great stuff for you. I'm playing songs by each of the bands playing at Neat Neat Neat as well as a song by a band that is around by memory only. I'm also reviewing "Years of Refusal" the latest Morrissey CD and Dollhouse the new TV show from Joss Whedon.

Eat Sugar - Black Eye

the Nice Device - Public Transportation

Love Meets Lust - Cop Lights

Bell Hollow - The Fire (The Sound cover)

I've been playing around with this program called Comic Life - it's awesome. I'm able to put together these comic stories like the one above to go with my episodes. I put these pics in the video but becuase the video is small you may not be able to read them. On the video Val Hundereds from Champions of Breakfast tells a story from his youth and the background behind their crazy stage props.

I had my reservations about putting this episode out, it's not one of my best. But, I'll leave you to be the judge of it. Most of the crappiness lies in that I wasn't prepared for my interview with Gil Mantera's Party Dream. That's not to say I didn't know who GMPD was, I did, I just didn't ever feel relaxed asking them questions. I've been much less prepared for other interviews and had a better go at it. GMPD were nice enough guys, I just an awkward feeling with them I couldn't quite overcome. I also had a lot of problems getting a good recording. I use a Zoom H2 which usually works great, provided people speak loud enough to be picked up by the microphone. Quiet mumbling just doesn't make for a great recording.

While I may not be happy with the interview, the music is great. I play 2 tracks by GMDB and 1 track by Love Meets Lust. LML is headlining the show I am promoting Nov. 27th, so if you like what you hear come check it out.

Believe it or not this is take 3 on my show notes/blog for this episode! My first take on show notes didn't even have anything to do with the episode but more on that ridiculous pic of me and one of the members of Millionaires. (Ridiculous refers to the me part of the pic, Allison from Millionaires is fantastic).

On take one I had this brilliant, witty blog written that even made a point. Unfortunately, I got this problem with my blog editor that if I do a search on the same page I'm doing the blog on, I lose any text I put in for my blog. It's complicated, frustrating and only an idiot like me makes the mistake twice on the same day!

I'll be honest, for me, intellectual brilliance like I had written earlier today is few and far between and there's never a hope that I'm able to recapture it. So, all I can do is move on and tell you to enjoy the episode. It has an interview, a live review and shimmering, sparkly, electro-indie pop.
