We're moving!

Following the retirement of Closed Caskets for the Living Impaired from the airwaves after 14+ years, The Black Cauldron will now be on the air Saturdays from 10pm to Midnight.

We can never replace Archpope Däch and everything he's done for our scene... we can only attempt to succeed him.

Playlist for 6/20/2009 (Last CCLI Part I)

Due to some technical difficulties Unextraordinary Gentlemen didn't perform until around 10pm, but they put on an awesome set worthy of CCLI's last show. Major thanks go out to Steve Sherlock from KUCI and Robert from I Still Have Nightmares for saving the performance.

TBC Invades CCLI!

Just a quick reminder - as was announced on Closed Caskets for the Living Impaired this past weekend, BlackRose and myself will be filling in for Archpope Däch as he takes a well-earned vacation for the next two weeks.

It'll also give me a chance to debut "Phoenix", my work-in-progress laptop-based DJ system.

4 hours of us for the next two Saturdays... can we/you handle it? Tune in to find out!
