Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:20pm
Austin Rich:

I have MOST of my broadcasts, going back to 1998... but there are many of the earliest and most ridiculous ones missing. I have a good "best of" show that sort of covers 1998 - 2004, but really, most of those years are gone. From around 2004 on I have very good documentation.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:21pm
Austin Rich:

That's sucks, Krys O. Stolen tapes are the worst kind.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:22pm
Krys O.:

I've mentioned before that Wm, Terry and I found a tiny kitten outside the station just before we started. We brought him inside and he played in the sound room, grabbing the pedal of the bass drum. We mentioned the cat during the broadcast and later a nice young couple came down to adopt the kitten.

But yeah... things are rough right now.

LOL! That 'not your personal jukebox' line pops into my head often. Terry was an amazing genius writer too.

My family was all "classic rock" in those days, and there was a local station that played all classic rock. It was on ALL the time in our house. I emulated classic rock DJs from the 80's when I was in High School.

Mr. Fab: I used to get friends together and have them play caller requests during our Pledge Drives in PDX. I would get about six people, and between them, usually one of them could play something a caller would ask about.

Great minds think alike, I guess?

Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:37pm
Krys O.:

Ha, Mr. Fab. I played my Casio PT-30 that night. Terry was on bass and Wm was on guitar and bass drum. Each of us was in a different room. Terry was in the main studio, Wm. was in the sound room--where live bands played just outside the main studio--and I was in the production room with the big scully machines. We could see other through glass windows.

Mr Fab:

Yeah Austin, and we didn't even know about how Yo La Tengo also does that every year here. They probably got that idea from us...

Wow, Coel! I wonder if I took your pledge call.

I wonder if this was my copy of Days of Future Passed. It skipped a lot.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 8:38pm

I would love to visit the WFMU studio someday. That would be very cool.

I think someone told me about the Yo La Tengo thing, and that gave me the idea. But, like, I'm not good like them.

When I lived in Eugene OR, the local station there - KWVA - was my "on all the time" station. It was the first place I heard radio collage and live bands on the air... plus DJs just being strange and being goofy. It was great. I wish I had more tapes of that stuff.
