I did a little baseball set on my show yesterday, airing Count Basie's (with Taps Miller singing) "Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball?" and others. This coming Saturday (the 10th), it's KAOS' Spring Membership Drive, so I would invite anyone who appreciates the rarity known as free form radio to phone us with a pledge (360/867-5267) between 10am and noon (Pacific Time/U.S.) this Saturday--or contribute anytime at www.kaosradio.org
Just like free form radio, record stores are having a difficult time surviving, too. Record Store Day is April 17th, so my 16th Anniversary Retroactive Show that day will be following the live performances and specials going on in Olympia's music stores.
Sixteen years! That might be too old to fit the desires of certain Catholic priests,
but it's a nice, long run for Retroactive. I'm going to be saying "We've got our driver's license!" a lot on April 17th and I'll be playing all sorts of car songs, many of them on vinyl.
