I will be seeing John Cale tomorrow, so there’ll be no live radio show that afternoon, as I’ll be out of town. I should have a playlist queued up and ready to go, but we’ll see if clock change shenanigans affect the playback or not…

Just a regular show this week, but there’s nothing wrong with that! Here’s Lene Lovich from last night and the Mountain Goats from the night before…hmm, wonder if we’ll hear songs by either of them in the second hour?

Hello from the Ryman Auditorium! As you can tell, I’m in Nashville right now and not Cleveland, so today’s show is taped. There’ll be some Neil Young in the second hour, and there’ll be more Neil next week too after I get back…that show Friday night was sure great, right?
