songsofnationalfreedom@gmail.com (Patrick) — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 06:28:00 +0000

hey folks.

I've been gettin some real good requests via the phone / instant messenger / comments on here, but sometimes I don't have the
right music with me when I'm at the station, on the air and all that.

sooooooo! I was thinkin it might be cool to get some requests WAY AHEAD OF TIME, so I can be prepared. THEN, you will get your block played on the air. it'll be like yr personal recommendations for the week. personally, I think it's gonna be cool.

that being said, please please please comment here, and gimme a 4 song block to play. it would definitely be bonus points if there is some kind of theme to it. so keep that in mind. also, if you would like it to be dedicated to someone, or some THING... that's all good too. just remember, the songs can't be mainstream... indie-ish only pleaaaaase. and no bad words. the fcc don't like 'em during the day.

so bring it on.

thank you.

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.
