Steve Kirkland (host)
Looking through my window at the sun breaking through the clouds, as it gradually descends over the ENE horizon... another day in the year that bites it about to bite it... tomorrow may be a long, long time, but it will come, and bring with it: LIGHT

6:17 PM, April 17th, 2021
Jeb
Heavy, man.

6:19 PM, April 17th, 2021

Heavy... heavy and groovy, The Mascara Snake, I mean Jeb

6:24 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
Love As Laughter did not make it into the mix, despite what you might have heard

6:33 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
A band that needs no introduction (so I didn't give them one): Dry Cleaning

Thanks for being there and my Saturday supper would not be the same w/0 U All that’s missing is a Fog practice in the afternoon to get to your show As Lux sang” you got good taste”

7:21 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
Why Thank-you Monsieur M, the sentiment and opinion are shared...

7:26 PM, April 17th, 2021
Jeb
Yes, a Fog practice would be nice, but not soon, I suspect.

7:32 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
A The Fog practice, if you double down on the articles... no argument on the not soon

7:35 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
Haven't played this many tracks on my show for a long while. More annoying than usual to live listeners not following along with the playlist online...

7:38 PM, April 17th, 2021
Jeb
I liked your "no introduction " joke.

7:40 PM, April 17th, 2021
Steve Kirkland (host)
Jeb, the joke was a quick, thinly-veiled mea culpa for the brutal edit I had to make, post-production
