Playlist August 28, 2004 - Interview w/ Real Life

Last night I ran the interview with David Sterry of Real Life, who was nice enough to fit me into his busy schedule. The band have been touring the West Coast of the US since August 13th, and should be returning home (Australia) this week to do a few more live shows. Their new album is called "Imperfection" and it's available at A Different Drum, and RealLifeMusic.net is their official website. I think, overall the interview went okay. I have work to do still, but I feel okay about how it went.

August 14, 2004 - I'm Out

The fantastic Curt (aka "The Rocker") will cover the show this weekend (August 14th). I will be off frolicking with family in some obscure tree and mountain-laden location with lakes and stuff.

I'm sure he'll treat you right. ;)

I'm slowly updating this blog with playlists from 2004, and I suppose I'm working backwards. I promise it'll get there. At least I've finished posting all playlists up through 2003 in the archive. Feel free to check those out at your leisure.

Your paradoxical popsicle,

~{Sunshine
