Yeah, rez-day at nine

I can't believe it's been NINE YEARS
Of virtual reality
Tonight, come down and feed your ears
With favorite tracks, all picked by me.

To the Americans, a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat.

Walk right in, it's around the back. Just a half a mile from the railroad tracks. 

If there is a Thanksgiving anthem, it's this. Enjoy!

A Big Basket of Funky Jazzy Things I Love

I'm filling in for Cajsa this Sunday morning. The fill-in request said "jazz," she didn't tell me I couldn't interpret that as "70s funky Jazz that makes you want to dance in your apartment." Sorry, not sorry.

Grab a coffee and join me at The Velvet, 9AM SLT, Sunday 11/23/2014 for a whole basket of funky jazzy things I love. I hope you do too.

A lower register at nine.

Last week we heard from women
But the real truth all depends
On hearing things from both sides
So, tonight we get the mens.





Samuel Ramey played The Beast. He's terrifying!

Hittin' the high notes at nine

Tonight is female vocalists
And if that's not your thing
Well, that's just too goddamn bad.
Listen to that girl sing!





Deborah Voigt played the Queen of Cloudland. Go check it out!

Getting under the covers at nine

Now, my vacation nears its end
I've had some time to clear my head
Yet, when Monday comes, I won't pretend
You know I'll try to stay in bed.
