"Little Spacey" is not a very good song. I played it by mistake.

#16 was by an early pop-punk band who actually released the album that we have under the name "Sweet Baby". Why? That's a stupid name.

Once again, no turntables. There's a new mixer, but I think it's only there to fill space.
However, after the show, Mark came in and brought in an even newer mixer. It will be there next week.

Played "Seattle" by mistake when trying to play "Disappointed". This explains the reappearance of PIL's greatest hits album 9 songs later.

"4th of July" was a request.

January 19

1. Drive-By Truckers - Where the Devil Don't Stay - The Dirty South 2004

25. Tsunami - Genius of Crack - Deep End 1992
26. Sonic Youth - Madonna, Sean and Me (Expressway to Yr. Skull) - EVOL 1986

And now, we have no turntables at all, because the mixer has been deemed beyond repair, even though one of the turntables still works. I tried to start the show with the 2005 equivalent of what the Snatches of Pink were to 1987. Drive-By Truckers actually led someone to call in and ask who they were.

Good opportunity to find which CDs are sources of 80's material.

The Big Black song to open the show was supposed to fit in with what Keith had been playing, but by 7:00 he was no longer playing loud annoying music.

The Diamanda Galas song was amazing. One of her less bizarre ones, but still bizarre.

Starting now, we only have one working turntable, and no easy way to switch to the non-working one anyway. Scrambled to find CD's that fit the format.

Someone requested "Suedehead" by Morrissey, but we didn't have any of his earliest stuff.

The rest of the year

December 12 was finals week. Nobody was required to do a show.

December 19 I was here, but the Union was closed at the time of my show.

December 26 I wasn't even here.
