Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129

I've had all that I can take today...

Well hello again, everybody. Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129!

Folks, I know it's been a few weeks since put up a new show and believe me, you have my most sincere apologies for that. I wanted to do the show, but I've been doing nothing but working, sweating, and napping in this godforsaken heat bubble of a city that I just didn't get it done. My bad. I'm back, though, better than ever.

This week's show is front-to-back bangers. I've got plenty of new local music, some throwback local jams, a batch of anniversaries (funny how a few weeks off does that), a couple new West Coast obsessions, our continued exploration of the Disposable America catalog, our weekly deep dive into Nate's Archives, the Cover Of The Week, a trip in the Minnesota Way-Back Machine, and, of course, the Flatbasset Flatclassic.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #129 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.

01. The Regrets - Houndstooth

02. Haley (fka Haley Bonar) - Big Star

03. British Sea Power - Come Wander With Me

04. Lunch Duchess - Ride Or Die

Flatbasset Radio: Episode #94

Let me rant & let me ramble...

Well hello everybody! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #94!

April has nearly passed, so I figured I should get my lazy ass back to work. This week's episode features the... not "triumphant"... adequate return of my hosting duties. That's right, I'm back on the mic. That's not the only reason to tune into this week's show. Hell, I'm just hoping that's not an actual deterrent from you checking out the show. This week's show if full of some excellent jams.

I've got some new local jams, some old local jams, some "in memoriam's," old stuff from great bands, old stuff from not so great bands, lost gems, the Cover Of The Week, and, as always, the Flatbasset Flatclassic. I also discuss overheating in the studio,  the reason I got back behind the microphone, Ben Folds' obituary, the time Kings Of Leon went for it and failed, spacing your coffee out so you peak at the right time (I did not to do this well), the moment Bad Religion started pulling apart their sound, the new direction of Lunch Duchess, the unrelenting consistency of Poliça, & respecting Jay Bennett on his own terms. It's really quite the show.

As always, Flatbasset Radio is completely free. I've finally set up a decent downloading site, so if you'd like to download Flatbasset Radio: Episode #94 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.
