Katharsis Nov. 16 '09

Again: mp3 or ogg.

First night in the brand new studio. It's great but the passing of our beloved mojo navigator, the iconic Rev. Ron has left me with a touch of the blues. No more "everythings gone buggy", no more "bricks in the leaning tower of babel", no more "church of get-down", no more Blues Witness... bummer.

The complete set list by request: Grimble Grumble - Emma Sleeping Blues, Jodis - Continents, J. Tillman - Barter Blues, Bohren & der Club of Gore - Darkstalker, the Inhabitants - Drop Descender, the Shipping News - It's Not too Late, Slint - Good Morning Captain, Aarktica - In Sea, the Drift - Lands End, Tarentel - Open Letter to Hummingbirds, Zelienople - Moss Man, the Mercury Program - Katos, Pillowdiver - Tony on a Bike, Black Heart Procession - Wasteland, Dirac - This is your 4am Wake-up Call, and Black to Comm - Void. Goodbye and Godspeed Rev. You will be missed.

The links to the archived show recordings should be good for up to 3 months from the show date. If the links expire just let me know via comment and I'll re-up.

Katharsis Oct. 26 '09 (Funding Drive)

Thanks to those who pledged during our funding drive. We ended up raising over $1500 during Katharsis and the station went on to raise approximately $210,000. Considering the times this is fantastic, a great show of support for truly original radio.

Craig Soby, who used to follow up Katharsis every week with a great show called Bedtime Boogaloo, sat in with me for my funding drive show. We had a great time blathering on about the station. If you care to listen, here are the links: mp3 or ogg.

If you pledged THANKS! Make sure you pay your pledge by Nov. 20 to be included in the grand prize draws.
