Please support all non-commercial radio. You can pledge to us by calling 734-763-3500 or opening your interweb to wcbn.org.
Today from 3pm-5:30pm the tag team of David and Pascal will attempt to raise at least $666. If they succeed, they will wax their bellies. The more they raise after that, the more they will wax off. Live on the air.

Hi Holly!
Remember that "VD Is For Everybody"! ;) At least one DJ must play that a year! (Marty McSorley did the honor on Tuesday, so this station's covered)

Matt, it has its own FB event. You all, please invite yoursevles!

Support all the independent radio you can!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:40pm
S.A. from S.F.:

San Francisco has nothing like WFMU, or WCBN, or any of the many other awesome more-or-less free-form stations in the nation, so I am, perforce, forced to support independent radio WHERE I can.

This Nina Simone sounds very pub-piano (sacrilage to say that I know...but)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:43pm

Nah, you're right. But in a good way I think...
Avatar 2:44pm

@SA: That's exactly true--KUSF once had downtown range, but that of course was yanked out from underneath them.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:49pm

@Matt - And besides that, as good as KUSF could be on the modern stuff, they never seemed to have anything like Matt Fiveash's show. No moldy oldies.

It doesn't matter -- I'm trading it all for The Mariners and KEXP.
Avatar 2:53pm
Matt from Springfield:

@SA: "Matt Fiveash's classic rock: like Classic Rock, only...better."

The important thing is that Matt has a very well *curated* show--playing the cuts that most "moldy oldies" don't include and is far more eclectic in this area than any playlist-based station.
Avatar 2:54pm
glenn:

ha! the mariners don't even have ichiro anymore.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:57pm
S.A. from S.F.:

Don't get the wrong impression, Matt -- I'm not denigrating this show by referring to its music as "moldy oldies" -- that's just an ironic thingie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:58pm
Matt F:

I take "moldy oldies" as the highest compliment, don't worry!
Avatar 2:58pm
glenn:

mafrospring - classic rock IS oldies radio.
Avatar 2:58pm
Holly in NC:

Syreeta was from Pittsburgh, moved to Detroit & worked at Motown where she met & was briefly married to Stevie W. He produced her great solo 1972 lp after their divorce, that's a good working relationship!

Holly in NC:

Great Skip Spence btw - thanks Matt!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:00pm
S.A. from S.F.:

@glenn - No, but they do have the highest-paid pitcher in baseball, now. And I'm pretty sure that Tim Lincecum will be traded to them before July 31st.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:00pm

Hey Holly! Yer welcome.

Wow, it's true -- this Skip Spence thing is incredible!

"Suicidal heartbreak songs" were earlier today -- on the Dark Night of the Soul Valentine's special with Mike Sin :)
Avatar 3:04pm
glenn:

i don't know. i don't follow either of them that closely, but i can't see lincecum going anywhere if the giants are in contention, and most baseball writers have picked them to be the n.l. champs again.
