Much thanks to Kristi for taking time out to make a phone post here!

no Libby and no me

Libby Kirkpatrick wasn’t able to come in tonight, and we are gonna reschedule.

I won’t be appearing on the show either, as I’m staring down the barrel of a paper deadline.

You can hear the “recorded me” tonight hosting show #107, which for those of you keeping track at home is the BEST OF featuring nothing but live performances from past editions of the program.

So you’ll even get to hear Libby play a quintessential version of her song “The Garden”, accompanied by Michael Shay on cello! It was recorded about 7 months ago, and has aged like a fine wine since then.

pre-game warmup

most days KPSU is fine, but every once in a while you come in and every thing is broken or hanging by a thread. this was one of those days.

this was more filling in for dj unity, who will be returning next sunday.

will oldham – sapele – seafarers music (royal stable)
beth gibbons & rustin man – mysteries – out of season (universal)
jason molina – pyramid electric co – pyramid electric co (secretly canadian)

arab strap – you shook me all night long – shy retirer ep (chemikal underground)
the jam – down in the tube station at midnight – the sound of the jam (polydor)

note to self: latin playboys would’ve probably been better after arab strap than the jam was.
