Some weeks are tougher than others. It seems like I’ve been plagued by little technical difficulties all week, and one big one. Unfortunately, the big one happened right in the middle of this week’s show! About halfway through, my broadcast computer suddenly went dead. Kaput. Fini. So I simply rebooted it, and soldiered on, picking…

This week’s show was an exercise in variety and eclecticism–if that’s an actual word. Okay–I just looked it up, and it turns out that “eclecticism” is indeed a real word. So there’s that. We played a bunch of songs from all over the rock ‘n’ roll spectrum. Each week, right after DJ Mac plays the…

It’s Fall. It’s October And it’s Tuesday night. Three of my favorite times. The first two mean that in Sacramento, it LOOKS like fall outside, but still kinda feels like summer. The third one means that I get to play some music for you on Woody Radio. So after a couple of weeks since my…

Summer’s almost over. Well, at least according to the calendar. Here in Sacramento, I think we should have something like a September version of Groundhog Day–if the Groundhog sees his shadow, then we’re in for six more weeks of summer. That’s how it usually works around here–we have warm weather well past the equinox, right…

You may be aware of the unwritten, but highly enforced radio regulation in commercial classic rock radio, that dictates a certain pair of songs must always be played together, in sequence. I know you already know which songs I’m referring to: Led Zeppelin’s “Heartbreaker” and “Living Loving Maid (She’s Just A Woman)”. Apparently, there are…

Hard to believe it’s already September, but it is. Just past the American Labor Day holiday, and an unofficial kick-off to fall. So what does that mean? Here in Sacramento, it was 84 degrees at showtime, so it doesn’t really feel like Fall yet. Maybe it means I can’t wear my white slacks and white…

This show was totally packed with music. How packed? Well, 55 songs full, that’s how much. We were “forced” to go into double overtime to get it all in. (If you don’t know what I mean by overtime, much less double overtime, give a listen to my show, and you’ll hear it happening right after…

You may have noticed that this Tuesday night show of mine doesn’t have a name. Every other time I’ve done a radio show, I’ve named it. I’ve given my shows fancy names like “Twirl”, “The Tuesday Night Diner”, and “The California Diner”. Ok, full disclosure: those are the only other shows I’ve done. So why…

It’s August, and the air in Sacramento has been hot and smoky. Just tons of pollution due to all the forest fires in Northern California. August came in like a lion–or more to the point, a dragon–I have no idea what it will go out like So this was a good opportunity to close all…

This show was a minor milestone for me–show #25! Yes–the 25th time that the gatekeepers at Woody Radio let their guard down and let me sneak in undetected and enabled me to do a show! This was also the last live show before a two week hiatus (of which we are in the middle of,…
