A little bit of wild could be good, especially the Wild Swans

6:05 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Well that's not going happen tonight, Wally, but I guarantee you won't be disappointed tonight!

6:10 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Wally
I'm rarely disappointed by your musical selection/concoction and already enjoying this song

6:12 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Wally
The Long Decline remind me of a blend of The Velvet Underground and The Pastels

Hi Steve. In today and listening.

6:17 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Oh, listen, another Neil Young cover... but not the one I thought I had cued up... huh

6:18 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Woofy
Wow. Steve: where else canI hear Kelly Jay and Crowbar on a Saturday night??!!

6:33 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Woofy, you took me so much by surprise I missed my cue... Arf?

6:34 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Hi Mr. JC... keeping well, mate?

6:51 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Re the gaff circa Woofy... lightning struck twice-ish after the DC... if you're following along

6:51 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Dave JC
More or less, apart from being down with cold and sore throat at the mo. Tis the season. Chance to catch up on some WC though... and you!

6:53 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Well here, D JC, no complaints... enjoying the WC but mostly catching highlights... tomorrow though, proverbially marching to a different drum...

6:55 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Wally
Nikki Sudden 👍👏👏👏

7:20 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
You got it Mr. S!

I was wondering who that was singing with Nikki as I recognized the voice, then I realized it was Jeff Tweedy. Now Julian Cope, hadn't heard that one before.

7:24 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
Similar experience for me hearing it for the first time, Wally.

7:36 PM, December 3rd, 2022

Moody by turns, provocative, entertaining, even compelling. And I can’t even find my Roget’s…

Heavy Ben
"Pre-Existing Conditions"... good one

7:50 PM, December 3rd, 2022

Appears we've gone off air.... hasn't happened for a while on my watch...

7:55 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Dave JC.
Yeah, i thought weren't flowing normally.

7:59 PM, December 3rd, 2022
Steve Kirkland (host)
...Well, turns out it wasn't the transmitter, just lost the live feed for some reason... Thanks to Jeff, CKCU's Engineer, for providing expertise to one sorely lacking in that...
