There's God in the arc when the ball leaves the park...
Well hello again, everybody! Welcome to Flatbasset Radio: Episode #126!
Folks, it's a second consecutive Monday episode. I'm not completely certain how it happened since Monday is pretty much the worst possible day to release a show like mine... and yet, here we are. Somehow I'm getting worse at this as the years go by.
If the glass if half full, though, it's a new episode! Lots of great stuff on this one. We check in on the latest release from Forged Artifacts (the finest cassette label in Minneapolis), embrace a little clarinet, continue our exploration of the Disposable America catalog, listen to one of the greatest American indie rock bands cover another of the greatest American indie rock bands, enjoy a mid-show instrumental break, check in on the man behind my favorite Twin Cities band of the last 10 years, revisit some 3rd wave ska, bask in Mason Jennings blanket-like voice, and find the saddest point where man meets machine to stare down death. All that plus the Cover Of The Week, a deep dive into Nate's Archives, the trip in The Minnesota Way-Back Machine, and 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 #126 (with all the appropriate iTunes tagging), just click here.
