I'll miss Stochastic Hit Parade like I miss blueberries when the season changes.

I've gone through 3 computers, starting with my '98 imac, then the newer imac then the emac with the bad video card on to my emac that the guy sold to me cheap because he felt bad about selling me the one with the bad video card. (wait is that 4?) I first started listening when you followed Fabio's show - back when I knew the name Stockhausen from the liner notes of Bitches Brew.
Be well Bethany, looking forward to your later musical projects.

Sun. 10/11/09 9:23pm jhn:

You will be missed! I always recommend your show to people who want to hear really interesting stuff.

Sun. 10/11/09 9:24pm gerardo:

hola, bethany!
just checking your e-mail, and quite surprised by the news!.
your move seems as a continuum in something that has been happening around: in my case, many of my friends have moved, changed jobs, got married, or became parents - some of them, after thinking about it and planning it for a long time.
my best for you in this new step you're taking - hope to stay in touch, and happy to realize you'll be back on the air.
¡que te vaya super!
¡saludos desde chile!

Ah, sad to see you leaving the air, even though it's not forever.
Thank the Great Ghu I can revisit via the archives - and point
friends to them.

May your new adventures be happy and edgy ones!

Sun. 10/11/09 9:28pm bruce from park slope:

Sun. 10/11/09 9:47pm drew in carroll gardens:

Glad to hear you'll be back on the air. That being said, I'll miss your singular sensibility and humor. Time to dig into those archives...and as far as a request, one of your faves by Nels....

Sun. 10/11/09 9:52pm Argiope:

BETHANY,
Really enjoyed your thoughts and music for the MIND. WIll definately miss your presence. You will live through ARCHIVES, but recorded ain't the same thang !

Thanks Again

Sun. 10/11/09 10:01pm bruce:

ooh, ooh, I got a request!!!
Nancarrow, Study No. 23
Not that I don't have it here at home...

Sun. 10/11/09 10:08pm dougcee:

Ah...to hear the mournful sound of 'The Magic Lake' by Spanky the Mome, what a way to go

Sun. 10/11/09 10:09pm Taylor:

Great, great music, B. Love all of this.... what was that lo-fi classic earlier with piano and drums???

Sun. 10/11/09 10:12pm bartelby:

I agree with the guy requesting Nancarrow. I look in a lot of places to find music I would like but the sequence of events which culminated in my purchasing a Conlon Nancarrow CD was 100% attributable to Bethany

Sun. 10/11/09 10:14pm d.francis:

I have enjoyed this show for a long time... a rich source of inspiration, and joy. Best of luck to you Bethany, and thank you for sharing all that you have shared in and between and beyond all the glorious music. I will really miss this show.

Sun. 10/11/09 10:58pm osvi:

Good luck on everything, Bethany. You have consistently given me amazing music to chew over and pillage my public library's collection (where, luckily, I work). Gracias!

This show has consistently blown my mind for the past ~9 years, and will be very greatly missed!

Sun. 10/11/09 11:25pm JT:

Well....Bethany, I'll love you forever. I hope that everyone writes in and tells you what their favorite part of the last 8 years has been. Mine: the segues. Every time you go from song to song, it gives me chills. take care, girl.

Sun. 10/11/09 11:26pm Dan M:

i got cole slaw.

Sun. 10/11/09 11:32pm listen er mark:

I'll miss you. I'm afraid.

Sun. 10/11/09 11:35pm e:

i will so miss the act of searching out the music i've heard weekly on your show. like the time you played the incredibly captivating janek schaefer 'extended play' piece. i looked up the disc immediately, saw what the album cover looked like, and the very next day i found a used copy at other music. prior to you playing it that disc would never have caught my attention. and while this isn't, hopefully not(!), the end of stochastic adventures, you can see see how much love you've given listeners and how appreciative everyone is because of it. thank you and already looking forward to your return to the air. x

Sun. 10/11/09 11:36pm listener mark:

A stochastic process is one whose behavior is non-deterministic in that a system's subsequent state is determined both by the process's predictable actions and by a random element. WE'll miss you, the random element is Bethany!

Sun. 10/11/09 11:38pm trs:

we'll always have the weather..

Sun. 10/11/09 11:39pm listener mark:

I found a book of lovely outhouse postcards. I'll send a few!

Sun. 10/11/09 11:41pm Adrien:

when you come back Bethany please bring along Becca Stevens again,
thanks a lot for all these times of great beauty in form of music.
the best

Mon. 10/12/09 1:07pm The Frisco Kid:
