Please listen to three hours of generic college rock twaddle, DJed by me, tomorrow (Friday the 16th!), from six to nine PM, PST. It's not as if you had anything better to do, and you don't even have to stop crying.
Well, aside from a few horrendously terrible fuckups, that didn't go so badly. Playlist. Resolved: next show, fuck this noise, I'ma play what I wanna.
I'm listening to a nice show right now from WNYC's "Must Have Music Festival." It's the Kurt Andersen one at the link.

I'm obviously pretty far out of the college rock loop, b/c I gotta admit, I didn't recognize a damn thing I heard.

Yeah, well, in all truth, it wasn't actually that typical of college rock, so.
Don't worry! You're still with "it"!

Nah, sadly I'm kind of not, music-wise anyway. I live in radio hell.

Why does KZSU have a prescribed list? I was under the impression that a key component of college radio was allergy to guidelines and Infinity-style Hot Lists.

Oh, you played the Ligeti!
Damn, I missed that. My friends showed up and wanted to watch television.

I think it's because (1) it's something of the norm and (2) it helps them get mediocre promos.

Took me right back to see that KZSU's most-played list included something by "Biafra, Jello" -- now backed by somebody called The Melvins

I'm pretty sure the Melvins were around in the 80s.
