First live concert for me, was the Thriller tour when I was 7 when my father took me. I still have images of the MJ look-alikes there in the stadium. It was awesome...

I once DJ'ed and tried to get people out in the early morning... Playing Einstuerzende Neubauten, followed by Gulio Iglesias... The organizer came over with his box of takings for the night, turned it over on my desk and told me to keep going on.... strange and happy days.

What could be more perfect than starting a song called "International Date" line on the hour? I mean, because the International Date line is all about time. You know? It's like where the ultimate top of the hour starts.

Heh. Alex, I played it right at the top of the hour because the show on the main WFMU stream plays that song at the start of their show. I wanted to confuse people about where they were listening. ;-)
