Good morning y'all! I'm gonna miss the hell out of all of you. Still looking, PMD. Trying to find something interesting and not just jump back into the moribund publishing world. Still waiting for a gtds listener to step forward with (ahem) a killer offer!

oh, right, and i'd love to know if the plum creek plan went through, they were gonna gentrify and build up moosehead lake.. allowing boat ramps and such.. would have ruined it. and say hi to weru for me, station is right on route one..

WWOZ's general manager is no releation to our Ken. WFMU did help out WWOZ immediately after Katrina, letting that station broadcast live online using one of our streams. I have always been hugely proud of what Ken did in helping out our radio neighbor during that horrible episode. (Heckuva job there, Kenny!)

My mistake. My assumption regarding the similarities in last name coupled with the near immediate offer of assistance by Ken has certainly made an ASS of ME. I guess that is why they call me the Dum Dum Guy. :)

Agreed Carmichael....Eddine friggin' Hinton indeed. What a wonderful song. I want to sing that to my wife, but she would probably laugh and/or cower in horror at the screeching sounds projecting via my vox box.

Man, I thought this was Elvis until I looked at the list. I love Dan Penn's music, but I've never heard him talk.
"Dark End of the Street" is one of my favorite songs ever.

I sometimes listen to the Classic Soul and Motown channel on the Sirius that comes with my sat. TV, and while there's some good and entertaining stuff there, they don't play the great unfamiliar 60s soul and R&B tracks I hear on FMU. Enjoying them more and more. Thanks.
