I've got local music writer Dave "Sasquatch Borracho" Pehling in the studio spinning tunes and talking up the record swap happening this Saturday, 11/22, at Makeout Room in SF, where I'll be spinning the records the vendors throw my way.

Dave is a local music writer and critic. If you're at a show in SF then you've seen Dave there. Dave may have the best ear for music for someone who doesn't host a radio show. Hmmmmm....

We traded sets throughout the night, with Dave sharing tracks from records he'll have up for sale at the swap. We talked a lot about the Bay Area music scene and how it continues to thrive.

Check out the playlist below, click on the link to hear the banter, and pull up to the record swap on Saturday. It's FREE! And there are drink specials to boot!

See you there.

How thrilling to have to rising local rock stars in the studio to do all the heavy lifting. I should do this more often. Rebecca (DJ RBG), and Mike (MC Cobra) of the mighty might Happy Fangs guest DJd in Hell's Kitchen tonight. They brought loads of 100% choice vinyl cuts, and knew their way around a radio studio.

I've had Happy Fangs in the studio before, to talk up shows and releases, but last time they were on I invited them to come back and guest DJ with me. They were obviously up to the task. Other than the first track, all the rest were from Rebecca and Mike. And just look at that playlist!

I'll be having other bands on to guest DJ with me soon.

This weekend there are a couple great shows to check out:

Friday night, local psych rockers Golden Void will transport you to the astral plane at Bottom of the Hill, where they will be headlining. I'm loving their new LP: "Berkana".

Saturday night there are two great bands playing at Amnesia on Valencia Street. The Reliables are a fun five piece, made up of old friends who decided it was high time they got together to make songs of journey and life. They've got a good funky vibe. The other band is the donut-laden trio known as DOWN IN FRONT! These ladies have the most fun no stage I've seen in years. The between-song banter is as much fun as the the songs themselves.

Support live, local music.

Coming up November 23rd is my fifth annual ANNUAL ANNUAL! I'm doing two hours on 1975. This isn't like KFOG. I actually know what was quality in that year. Tune in, and check out my previous ANNUAL ANNUAL shows from the past few years. Rumor has it guitar slinger Eric McFadden will guest DJ that night too!

Enjoy.
