Brand New Bicycles Video

Yes, a real post. While I was neglecting my own blog here, I was also ignoring most of the other fine blogs I've come to appreciate since starting this. So I hit You Ain't No Picasso and was excited to see a post on the new video by The Bicycles.

They have a brand new album out called Oh No, It's Love and the video is for the title track. Enjoy.

Sweet Static News

Well it's been a long time since I've posted here but I've decided to get back to this again. There is some news though on the radio front.

First off my show is moving from Friday mornings to Thursday nights. Starting this Thursday, December 4 Sweet Static will be on from 7pm to 8pm.

This is a big change for the show. For over the past year, because of work I've had to record the radio show. At first I enjoyed the challenge. It was something different and refreshed the show for me.

However as time went along it there were many factors that I didn't like in doing the show that way. The lack of interaction with people listening, the thrill of doing it live, the chance to check out more music from the station, the chance to interview bands, etc.

But now I'm back on live. I lose an hour of time but it's for the best. I'm looking forward to the challenge of the new length but also to being back on live. So hopefully any listeners of the show will follow and that they'll be new ones.

With that this blog will be back as well. I've kept most of my old playlists from the last few months and will be posting them. I've put up all of November's and will be attempting to post everything that I have a copy of. As well I'll try and post other stuff that I find online that catches my ear or eye.

Alright for now. More playlists and a couple of posts tomorrow. Thanks for listening and reading.
