Blogging

Thanks to The Time Being, which I've been addicted to since the middle of last week, I've written a blog entry in my myspace blog. For some reason I have issues with hanging too much of myself out there, but I'm trying to be better at being open. I still think that this space is strictly supposed to be for playlist archives. Perhaps I'll do a sub-blog here. Perhaps not. I have too much writing space presently and think there are too few that care to read it. I can't deviate much from including music in it, as music (listening/DJing) is my passion. Anyway, if you myspace, you may add me if you want to respond or contribute to the thought process, if you don't, you can still read me.

Playlist Dec. 10, 2006 (Best of 2006)

Of course once I got home, I thought of another band whose album came out this year that I've been listening to from end to end for about a month now, and that's Favourite Sons' album "Down Beside Your Beauty." The vocals to me sound like what the lovechild of Robert Smith and Lou Reed would sound like. Definitely worth checking out. You can hear some of it on their myspace page here. The following is the playlist for tonight. You'll notice that a large portion of it is my "best of 2006" list. I will put an asterisk (*) next to albums that I have heard in their entirety and like as a whole. This doesn't mean that the others without asterisks suck, it just means I haven't had time to listen to the whole album/ep. Please also note that this list is not ranked at all, and that 27 albums and eps are represented.

Playlist Nov. 25, 2006 (back to 3 hrs)

The following playlist reflects last week's return to a three hour time-slot. I am really excited that my show's regained its third hour and I have Michael T. to thank for that (he does The Justice Files on Monday nights from 11pm - 1am, and has been temporarily hosting Best of KKFI right after R2E2 until a new "Best of" host is found). Even more exciting was the show of support and interest in the form of calls and requests (as you can see below, there were quite a few). Thank you so much for that. It really made the tech. diffs I was handling more bearable.

I'm sorry about having gotten a little behind in posting playlists this these past two weeks, but work has made it unavoidable. Here's last week's list, and I'm working on getting the prior two (or is it three) lists typed up soon after.

(FYI: For the sake of keeping these chronological, I'm actually posting this as if it were done the next day, but it's being posted 12/2/06.)

This weekend - Back to 3hrs!

Starting this weekend, the Retro Red-Eye show goes back to being three hours! Unfortunately, the third hour is added at the end, but three hours is three hours, right? So, now the show extends through to 2am! That's three whole hours of taking you back with my favorite music from the 70s, 80s and 90s and bringing you up to date with today's music that has evolved from that good stuff.

Hope you'll remember to tune in!

~S.

Many thanks to anyone who pledged their support on 90.1 FM this pledge drive. I don't know what the final number is, but it's over 90,000 for the whole week, including the silent donation drive (via US Post), and online as well as on-air pledges.

It was such a pleasure having Billy Smith of Roman Numerals on the show tonight. Hopefully, our conversation was somewhat entertaining to listen to. It's so hard to consider how it sounds from the other side of the radio when you're in the middle of it. I'm sure the following is not a complete list. I'm going to fix it as soon as I get the back-up recording.

We Need You! + Roman Numerals next week!

Hello, faithful and new listeners alike! As of yesterday, 90.1FM KKFI began our Fall On-air Pledge Drive! What does that mean exactly? This is that crucial time when we appeal to our listeners for pledges in order to help increase our membership and raise money to cover our operating costs. The Fall 2006 On-Air Fund Drive runs through Saturday 10/21, so please call 816-931-3122 and pledge your support on your favorite programs!

ROMAN NUMERALS
Next week (10/21), I'll be having local band Roman Numerals drop in! They're coming in to help pledge pitch, and they'll be doing their version of Retro Red-eye Express for you, so there's no telling what gems they'll bring in from their collection!

Listen to Retro Red-Eye Express and your other favorite KKFI programs online by going to kkfi.org (click on "Streaming") OR, if you're in the Greater Kansas City area, by tuning your radio to 90.1 FM KKFI.

Remember to tune in tonight and every Saturday night from 11pm to 1am (CT) for retro-y goodness!

The Gary Numan Show @ Record Bar 8/15/06

Somehow I completely forgot to mention the Gary Numan show during tonight's show! I had a great time at the show. The opening band were called New Skin, and they were a really good british goth-rock type of band. I wish I'd picked up their EP at the merch booth.

He sang a few old songs (Down In The Park, Are "Friends" Electric?, and Cars) mixed in with songs from Jagged and the albums immediately prior to it (admittedly, I am not good at recognizing all his songs). I know they did Slave and Prayer for the Dying, but I'm fuzzy on the other songs. Tim Finn in The KC Star did a little write-up on it, though and he had a set-list included. I'm not sure if it's accurate, though.

Gary was sounding and looking great and was very energetic. He seemed to really enjoy the audience's response to just about everything he played (being that the whole crowd seemed to love it all). I loved seeing a few grins on the man's face. He got right up to the edge of the stage while singing, and was head-banging and dancing to the beat. Loved it!

Here are some photos my friend took at the show:

OH... and the follow-up to the Numan Interview saga! I managed to schedule another brief phone call to record station IDs, and I got to find out what happened on his end and tell him what happened on mine. He laughed at the irony of the situation (as did I), being that I was talking about "We Have A Technical" and "Me! I Disconnect From You" right before we got disconnected. He said he thought he'd bored me to death and that I'd hung up on him. I thought he hung up on me, being that the last thing he was talking about was how the lyrics on Jagged are too personal and embarrassing to go into. We were both wrong. He must have been traveling while talking to me, and must have gone out of range of his phone's network. I was grateful that at least we got as much conversation as we did before it dropped out. Never fear, though! I'll get a chance to interview him again in the future. I've discovered that this current tour of the US is a precursor to a more extensive tour in April of '07!

Playlist Aug 12, 2006 (Gary Numan Interview)

It was such a privilege to get to talk to Gary Numan this week, I just wish it hadn't been cut off so abruptly. I had a couple more questions and things I wanted to talk about, but all in all, it worked out okay, I think.

I'm looking forward to the live show on Tuesday, aren't you? I admittedly got a little carried away in doing my post interview tribute, but I guess it happens.

Playlist July 29, 2006

Greetings fair listeners,
I had planned to have the first part of (if not the whole) tonight's show reflect the dark mood I was in. Although the first hour did indeed start off on a melancholy note, my mood cleared after a little sonic therapy. Did you feel the dark cloud of melancholy lift?

Seriously, though, music plays such an important part in my life. To imagine a world without it is to envision my version of the fiery pits of the underworld. I truly believe it is that important. I would go so far as to say it's my religion, except I'm a listener and collector, not a gear-head or someone who gets into every single minutia about producers and mixers and synth programmers of every band/artist I get into.

I know people who freely admit that they don't care that much for music. Don't. Care. For. Music. This concept is alien to me. My own grandmother is one of said people. She tried to listen to my show once, and said she enjoyed it, but "who picks the music? It's horrible." Which I can understand, being that she's approaching 90 years of age. I am sure Punk Rock is a torturous sound for her, to say nothing of Electro-Clash.

Grey Radio Last Night

I would like to thank Grey Radio's co-host Danielle for having me guest co-host on her show last night. If you got to listen, you were treated to 1.5 hours of a set by Danielle's design, and one and 1.5 hours of my version of Grey Radio. We chit chatted about Depeche Mode and the two versions of "Safety Dance" (SSSS-AAAA-FFFF-EEEE-TTTT-YYYY... and so on) among other things and spun our favorite tunes for both Lawrence and KC audiences. The phone rang off the hook as well, which was cool.

Also, many thanks to you, KC and Lawrence listeners, for tuning in and showing support (via the aforementioned phone calls). Grey Radio will be back next semester, and I've invited Danielle to guest co-host on Retro Red-eye sometime. She's a lovely gal, and really knows her music.

The playlist is on KJHK's website: http://www.kjhk.org . My set started with Depeche Mode.

Special Guest "Appearance" on KJHK! (TIME CORRECTION)

There is this cool show on KU Lawrence, KS' college station 90.7 KJHK whose aesthetic sensibilities are not entirely different from those of Retro Red-Eye Express. "What is the name of this obviously fabulous show" you ask. Says I, "It's Grey Radio, and it's produced by co-hosts Danielle and Joe on Friday nights from 9pm - Midnight."

Why am I telling you all this? Well, my faithful, occasional and potential listeners, I have been asked by the lovely Danielle to guest co-host on "Grey Radio" next Friday, July 28th as Joe won't be able to do the show that evening! Yes! Get ready, people, because you are going to officially get far too much of me for one weekend!

For those of you near and far who don't receive the KJHK broadcst, never fear, they too are in the online streaming game! Just go to KJHK.org and on the left-hand side of the page, there's a "KJHK LIVE" icon that gives you the option to choose whether you want a Hi-fi or Lo-fi stream. You might even get to hear it if you're on dial-up! Awesome, no?!

I hope you'll get to tune in!

Playlist July 15, 2006 (show's 4th anniversary)

Having only just lost Syd Barrett this week, I can't believe I failed to mention during the show how much Syd Barrett's music means to me. If you have the chance to check out some of his early work with Pink Floyd, by all means do! It's addictive stuff. Start with "Piper at the Gates of Dawn" and go from there. Some of my favorite songs of his are "Arnold Lane," "Lucifer Sam," "Gnome," "See Emily Play," and "Chapter 24." The melodies are so beautiful and the lyrics are of the psychedelic, fantatstic sort that could only have come from a madman or a genius, if you know what I mean.

Many thanks to all who played along with my crazy trivia idea!

Delay in posting Richard Butler [& my] Birthday Show Playlist

Arrrgh! I spent about an hour typing this up whilst multi-tasking on something else, and was just putting the finishing touches on my beautiful masterpiece of a posting... and I made the fatal mistake of previewing it and backing up to edit it. This was a really long post that contained more than just the playlist! I had tour dates and other events typed up, a little blurb about Richard Butler and what he means to me... and it disappeared in a flash, people! I'm fairly distraught. it's now 2:36am. I'm off to bed, so I'll have to finish this another evening.

Many apologies.
