BIG BIG NEWS, aaaand still back east.. but dont sweat.

yep, I am still on the east coast enjoying a cold dose of the holidays, so this week DJ Lorraine will be taking the mic for Songs of National Freedom. she hosts a great show called Record Store Memories. 

And for the big news, the new Winter Quarter schedule was just announced at KUCI, and my show is moving time slots. Ive gotta say, I am very very happy for the new spot. I will still be on Tuesdays, but now I will be on for TWO HOURS, and from 2-4pm (PST). Pretty awesome, right?

Songs of National Freedom / ZM RADIO-style

hey folks

im currently back east enjoying a cold, yet snow-less christmas, so the ever amazing Ziba from ZM Radio (Thursday 4-5pm on KUCI) will be once again takin over the reins at SONF (songs of national freedom, if you havent seen that abbreviation yet). 

But just so ya know... a goal of mine for this vacation is to FINALLY get the files up from all the live performances that have been on the show up and downloadable on the website. so keep an eye out. if I dont have them up by the last day of the year, then I officially suck. But im pretty sure I can pull it all together. 

Listen in tomorrow, december 23, cuz Ziba is SO RAD, and has great taste in music. Im sure youll enjoy what she throws down for ya. 

Be good. 

Talk soon.
