Mondays mean more music for your earholes. Ever since I co-produced the celebration of 50 years of Punk in San Francisco back in February, at the Mabuhay Gardens and On Broadway, I've had club booker Daniel Haver join me each week, playing music he's found during the week. And let me tell you, Daniel, all of 23 years old, has the knowledge and taste of a person with ten times the experience. 

I spent nine glorious years at KFJC, considered one of the most eclectic and diverse collections anywhere. This is where I received the best music education. Daniel would have fit right in with that crew. He may even have educated a few of the more curmudgeonly ones, who are not quick to being inspired by those younger than them. IFYKYK

Since it was only Daniel and myself tonight (until sound man Christopher and lighting guru Ignacio showed up), it was all, or mostly, about the music. And then it was too much roommate radio. 

But I digress.

New music from Angine de Potrine, The Rinds, and False Flag. We celebrated the anniversary releases of Fun House and Double Nickels on the Dime. You get Daniel's weekly "what the hell is this and where did he find it?" selections. And let me tell you this one is a doozy! 

I personally think the final set of the night was the best set of all! See the playlist below for all the details.

I'm out this coming Monday, so I'll cue up something special for you all. 

In the meantime, Let's Blow San Francisco, and Waymo is a snitch!

Enjoy and please share.

Radio is seduction. I like seduction. it just feels good. And who doesn't like to feel good. And this here show just keeps getting hotter and hotter until it climaxes in just the perfect way at just the perfect moment. And like any good seduction, there are twists and turns, a pull back here and there, a tease, a touch, a tickle. And throughout there are hints at what's to come. 

Not go give anything away, but I should have worn gloves. 

Every time I have Daniel from the FabMab into the studio I'm afraid the turntables are going to catch on fire. The banter, the wit, the inside jokes! All of it is worth it when you get to hear what we both brought in for your pleasure to night.

The anticipation is just killing me.  

Enjoy and please share.

It's LEAP DAY!!! I just thought I'd shout that out. Happy 7th birthday to my friend Drea, and 13th to my friend Paul. You're both so cute, but you look really old for your age.

I recently added the Drumpf extension to my Chrome. that means even if I type Trump into this blog, when I see it on my computer it'll say Drumpf. HA! Love it. I also added the Kardashian blocker, which kindly also blocks all-things Kanye, Kimye, and Jenner, and whatever other terms I add to it. I don't need the heartburn, knowhatimean? I can even add "John Hell" to it, and it'll block me! Wait, I don't mean to give any of you some wild idea. You need me. You need me to educate you on quality radio programming. You need me to school you on the newest of the new sounds going down in the uptown. I offer for your consideration the following playlist below.

Check out the first hour! So much classic rap and hip hop. I don't play nearly enough of this. I also feature legendary local hiphopsters: Kalri$$ian!!! They are blazing hot, and I cannot wait to get them into my bed, er...I mean, back in the studio. Yes. That is what I meant to say. Studio. Ahem. Check out their Twitter stream too. It's often NSFW, so you've been warned.

There's some good ol' fashion punk rock, Americana, psycho-swing, psychedelia, doom metal, spaghetti-western soundtrack music, new garage rock, and classic Ray Charles just because I can.

Tune in for the music, stay for the witty banter. I can't recall everything I said, but I'm fairly certain there's a quality rant in the somewhere.

Do you tune in for just the music? I want to know. Leave a comment about why you listen, what you enjoy, and what you would like more of (and yes: less of). I'm thinking of creating a simple survey for you all to take. Thanks for your input. I want to make this a show you look forward to each and every Monday night. Or perhaps you can just make a John Hell Blocker and then you won't have to worry about seeing anymore of this drivel.

Enjoy.
