On my way to the studio I was hit by a barrage of blustery wind and there was debris all over the road, or at least there was on MY road. Just as I started to get to campus it began to sprinkle rain. I was a bit apprehensive about the ride home (on my Vespa), but the next DJ has said it's nice and clear and calm out. Nice.

Well, this week's show was a nice mixed bag of post rock and noise with some unexpected but oh-so-welcome surprises, most notably All of Them Witches; check 'em out! Also, I finally played something by The Nationale Blue on my show at long last. I had to hit them up via the internet because my iTunes purchased tracks won't play on the laptop. Damn you DRM, DAMN YOU STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!
I'll be back on KTUH again next week. Same time, same channel: 90.3 FM Honolulu, 9-Mid. Until then, keep it real in this Post Nothing world!

Hate. That's how I feel about the new format of the blogspot website. OMFG, talk about difficult to navigate. Anyway, I think that the show was pretty decent today. I was in an all-over-the-place kind of mood so I played some kind-of-all-over-the-place music. I think that there was a little bit of something in there for everyone. I hope people enjoyed. No one called to complain, so I guess that's a good sign. Well, no one called at all so whatever. Meh. 

Until next week, keep it real in the field.

And here's a fun little treat for you:

Make WHAT?! Make ass??? These signs have been popping up around town, especially near college campuses. The signs reads Make Ass May 4 18+ and that's it. No further explanation. WTF is that supposed to mean? Never mind the who, what, where, how, or why. So everyone, if you're 18 or over on May 4th, I urge you to go out and make ass anyway you see fit.
