    Prog Radio DJ

    For those of you who wanted to know, I will be the prog DJ guest on Jeff Wiseman's radio show Twilight Spirits once again.

    The show is this Sunday morning, June 11, from 7 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. eastern time (New York) on CKLN-FM, 88.1 in Toronto.

    If you want to listen over the internet, the live link is:

    http://www.ckln.fm/listen/listen.html

    I haven't decided the set list yet, but I will be including some Zappa alumni (Bozzio, Ponty, Keneally, maybe Vai), ELP, Carl Palmer Band, probably something by The Flower Kings, maybe Kino, PFM, Jim Gilmour.

    The problem with prog is that with longer songs, you only have time to play 8 to 10 tunes.

    Are any of these broadcasts archived? I assume a comp is in the works...

    Has the station been receiving any positive feedback about your spot? Any negative feedback?

    Do you actually get to speak over the air? If so, do you use a different personna and speaking voice ala Wolfman Jack?

    Any chance of getting a different time slot, say when people are awake?

    I'll bet you're having a blast (I'm still jealous). Good luck! Keep that torch lit!

    Cool. I just bought a new clock radio. I can test it out on your show.

    Hey 3LBs signature makes me think that you should play some Kevin Gilbert...something off of Shaming of the True. The song about the record company execs...you know the one.

    You should, however, play this:

    How did you play it if you didn't download it? Just rightclick->save target/link as...

    PS It's one of Troy's own compositions. And yes, I agree, it's very good. Troy, I really like that one. Takes me back to the classic cinematic instrumentals like Audion-era Synergy, or maybe something from Split Enz.

    There ain't enough acid in the world for that tune!

    I meant that as a compliment.

    I heard from a reliable source that you slept through the show. What good is an alarm clock that doesn't wake you up?

    You missed the best show EVER!!!!!!

    Oh well. life is like that sometimes.

    Oh yeah? What source? Don't believe them. It's not true. The alarm clock went off just fine. But I'm still getting used to where the buttons are situated. I just happened to hit the off button by mistake. Yeah...by mistake...that's the ticket.

    Hubby heard most of it and did say that it was the best show that you've done. I guess I'll have to wait for the CD.
