Be careful what you ask for, you just might get it. I asked you all to make requests for bands and shows you wanted me to play on my Monday night Live Bootleg Bonanza show on Radio Valencia. At this point I have enough requests for a months worth of these shows. But please, I beg you, keep those requests coming. It's more fun than me blindly throwing a dart at the board. That's not exactly how I choose what I'm going to play; I'm just looking for you to inspire me.

Tonight is very inspiring. 

First up, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, live at the Oxegen Festival, Ireland, July 11, 2009. I have seen Nick Cave a handful of times, and each time is better than the last. I saw this tour when it came to San Francisco, and being a collector of live music I can tell you that he must love San Francisco, the setlist for that show was the best and longest of the tour. The show I have for you is the second best show of the tour. HA! Either way, you get a stellar soundboard and an epic performance from a genius singer and songwriter. Sadly this show doesn't have Stagger Lee on it, but you can't have everything. This was originally broadcast on Finnish Radio X3M, October 25th, 2009.

There was at least one request so far for Johnny Cash, of which I have many shows. I actually hosted a Cash/Cave show a few years back. Here's the link. That was fun as you will hear. My second show tonight is NOT Johnny Cash. Instead, I have a band that I can see sharing a stage with Nick Cave: Queens of the Stone Age. Like the Cave show, this one is also from a festival in Europe. I take this soundboard from the Pukkelpop Festival, August 21, 2010. The band is in fine form as you will notice. This recording comes from broadcast on 3rd program of Polish Radio. I have no idea what that means. It was in the text file for the show.

Some of you have asked me about the lineage of the shows I play, not just it being a soundboard. I will add lineage to my posts, moving forward.

As usual, following the Monday night show, I will post the link at the top of this page for you to download this show and keep it. 

If you miss seeing live music as much as I have, then I think you're really going to enjoy my Monday night Live Bootleg Bonanza on Radio Valencia. I have thousands of shows from hundreds of artists and bands, spanning many genres. Every Monday is a chance for me to share some treats with you. I hope you enjoy and share the music.

Have you tried out our iPhone or Android app yet? Get them where you get your phone apps. I love the iPhone app and use it every day.

Stick around Monday's 8-10PM Pacific for my weekly music mix. Lots of new music to share with you every week.

Enjoy and pay it forward.

Hosting a special is always a treat. I like the work once I'm inspired. A few weeks ago this "Hello/Goodbye" idea popped into my head. It's not very original, but it's what you do with it that counts. How would you fill a two hour show of only songs that have the theme in the title, or are obviously about the theme? 

I need to thank my buddy Michael for a few suggestions as well as many of the KALX staffers for throwing a few hundred titles my way. Wow! It's an embarrassment of riches. I only have two hours to fill, so I wanted hour one to be the "Hello" theme, and hour two to close it out with the "Goodbye" theme. I opened and closed with Cheap Trick: "Hello There" and Auf Wiedersehen". To segue from one to the other, I used the over-obvious Beatles tune "Hello/Goodbye". 

During my research I discovered there are countless songs about goodbye. It makes for a more emotional tale, than a song featuring a greeting. That being said, I think I represented both salutations well. You be the judge.

Next week it'll be mostly new music, and we're getting closer to being in our new studio on 22nd Street in San Francisco. Let the excitement commence!

Enjoy.

Rock Fight 11

Well we've gone and done it again. Last night Ron Donovan and I hosted ROCK FIGHT 11! At this early hour I'm a bit tired; having hosted a six hour show, interviewed three amazing people, played some of the rip-roaringest rock and roll, put up with Ron, and standing on my feet from about 6:30AM-12midnight.

My neck hurts.

In our previous 10! incarnations of Rock Fight, the format was all about not repeating an artist throughout the night. Though this proved to be a challenge, Ron and I were always up for the challenge. You see, rock poster artist Ron Donovan, and yours truly, John Hell, have what quite possibly will prove to be the LARGEST LIVE BOOTLEG COLLECTION IN THE WEST! Really, I stake my 25+ year radio reputation against that claim. We're junkies for the live rock 'n roll, and we want to share our problem with you.

For Rock Fight 11 we changed up the format a bit. Instead of it being a plethora of fabulous finger picking and hellacious head banging from many, MANY bands, we would do 30 minute blocks of a featured band. The set list below includes the song/artist/date/location and who selected the tune (JH=John Hell, RD=Ron Donovan).

We had some special guests in the studio, as always. I want to thank Bassy Stacy and Amy Ace of the all-female KISS cover band, KISSER for stopping by. I've been a fan of Stacy since she was in the Kinks cover band, The Minks. KISSER is amazing! This is the band we've all been waiting for. Listen to the interview and you can hear for yourself how enthusiastic they are about "their" music and the gigs. You have got to see them live. In the meantime check out their YouTube channel.

Even Steffan Chirazi of "So What" the official Metallica fanzine did a set. And what a set it was! He came by to talk about the recent Metallica show in ANTARCTICA! What the what?! Awesome! Steffan is a talented and experienced journalist, so interviewing him is always a blast. You have got to hear his story about Axel Rose. You may remember Steffan from the show he and I co-hosted back in May, following the passing of Margaret Thatcher. Take a listen.

Last night he brought some tasty tracks from the Antarctica set, as well as a few other juicy tidbits.

The banter was brilliant at times, and other times I was losing track of Ron's technical DJ errors. HA! That, and he talking away from the mic, and I wanted to hit him over the head with the turntable more than once. How I love that hobbit-wizard of the ink pulling world.

We'll do it again in June. Until then...
