Gown Taylor's Jam For The Maples
A new set begins: Opening Comments
Comment: I had intended to do a live show with Fabio, but he was very ill and couldn't hang around. At that point, I had to choose between airing a new story I had written which is like, 57-minutes long, or going live. Going live for me, since I don't do it frequently, is a hit-or-miss proposition. On this episode I pretty much missed by a country mile. Nervous, fake, annoying ... these adjectives work.

A new set begins: I Feel Bad That I Encouraged That Young Man To Say 'I Don't Like America.' I hear a certain mania happening. The nervousness makes me try too hard. Need to relax. Arbies tanking. Confidence eroded.

A new set begins: Fredericks of New Port Richey
Comment: I felt like I was impolite to Fredericks. In the hour format, I struggle with wanting to cram as much entertainment value as I can in that 60-minutes. When there is casual conversation, the pace of it, the slowness, the meandering, it makes me anxious. Something great, something outrageous, something poignant, needs to happen NOW and frequenty, or it feels like failure.
Comment: I have difficulty listening in this state, because I am accelerating ahead to the NEXT moment coming up. The present is disposable. There is only 10-seconds from now. All that matters.

We had an automation system that used the Drake-Chenault reel-to-reel system of categorizing and programming music. Drake Chenault. Look that up. Early computerized programming.

Comment: Not sure why I totally lapsed into the fake DJ voice. Truth is, I don't know who I am on the radio. Me does not exist. There is only fear and elation. Exhilaration and Angst.
Comment: The people on this show are fine, but a poor performance, an alienating performance, by me. So tempted to erase this show from the archives, but ... as Fabio says ... Strength Through Failure. I hope he is right.

Comment: The Slipknot fail jarred me, rattled me. It was hard to overcome. The show, in my mind, was a horrible, horrible goner at this point ... and in reality, it was. One of the worst ever, in my estimation. Please pledge. http://pledge.wfmu.org/donate/CP

A new set begins: Wrapping It Up
Comment: Thanks for listening to this episode of The Dusty Show. IMO it is one of the worst ever. I was horrible. Not sure why. Insecurity, I think. I lost my confidence and over-compensated with false bravado. Anyway, I'll quit self-deprecating. I'm glad you listened, but not really, because I would rather no one would have ever heard me at my worst like this, and I hope it is just an abberation. Must get into better 'mind-set' by next Thursday. I guess I take it all too seriously. It does make one quite vulnerable just laying it out there on the radio. Sometimes the microscope magnification is just too strong, and the human bug writhes in the light, wanting only to scuttle to safety under the wainscotting. Of course, that's where the Raid is. Love you all! Please pledge for the SIlent Marathon. I am doing badly and am running out of time to get to my goal. Here is the link: http://pledge.wfmu.org/donate/CP always remember ...
