Playlist 9/27/03 (Mini Robert Palmer Tribute)

Did a little tribute to Robert Palmer, a back-to-back Bowie duo, and a They Might Be Giants block. I played air-bass during "Bang A Gong" in his honor, and said over the air that anyone who didn't do it with me must not have a pulse.   ;D

Playlist 9/13/03 (New time slot)

Saturday night last week was the first time my show was on a Saturday night! We have a new schedule in place at the station, and my show is now from 11pm to 1am on Saturday nights.  It was really odd not having that extra hour, so I didn't pace it very well and fit way too many new songs in. Yeah, it's great to add new songs to the mix, but I think it can be overwhelming if it's ALL new, and since I'm supposed to be "Retro"... I need to be mindful.  I was also hit with a last-minute scheduled interview that didn't show up on time. It kind of threw me off altogether.

Anyhow... here's how the list looked:

Love My Way - Psychedelic Furs
Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon (in tribute to him)
Way Behind Me - The Primitives
In Between Days (acoustic) - The Cure
