there never seems to be enough time. the older i get, the faster it seems to slip past…….and the radio show seems to be no exception. today’s show only ended a little over an hour ago, and already it seems a distant memory. while i was there spinning discs both large & small i kept thinking….’leave enough time for this’ & ‘don’t forget you promised to play barn owl…..’ & ‘don’t forget to mention this show or that show…..’ and then all of a sudden it’s noon, and i have to hand it over to dori. there are days, today being one of them, where i could literally host a 12 hour show, i brought that much music with me, and wanted to play that much as well. oh well, in two weeks i’ll get another shot at it…….i PROMISE to play that barn owl stuff.
the shows i wanted to mention are as follows: this weekend a new store is opening in riverwest, it’s called ‘rustbelt fiberwerks’ at 718 east center street, and these fools will be playing both saturday & sunday, i believe around 2pm both days: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJf3d6O8fXc i hope that link works, i’m an idiot when it comes to this blog, don’t know how to do anything. the best i can do is type, and even then……………
the milwaukee talkees are quite possibly the best band you may have never had the chance to see…..well, this weekend, you have two. doug (guitarist) has been absent from our city for some time, but is making a triumphant return for this weekend only……please do yourself a favor & go check them out & check out the shop as well.
the other show is one that i helped curate…..coming up on october 13th, exactly two weeks away…..at the sugar maple: wereworm with good night & good morning and making their debut in milwaukee moss folk (previously from grand rapids, recent arrival here in milwaukee). very much looking forward to this show, should be an interesting & diverse grouping…….much like the five & dime show. hopefully this is just the start of me booking/curating shows……….we’ll see.
anyway, here’s the playlist from this mornings show……check it out on the archives link if you didn’t get a chance to listen earlier.
