August 26 2009: School's 'Round the Bend

Hey everyone. This is the last show of the summer. School started up today (Monday 8/31) and I think it was a decent send off. A little all over the place, but very few jarring sets. Cool. Unfortunately, the interviews I recorded at the Underwater Peoples show at the Market Hotel last week were eaten by the computer. Not cool. Very not cool. The interview with Nicole from Air Waves was good, but the interview with Liam (of Liam the Younger and Titus Andronicus fame) was probably the best I've ever done. Very conversational. Very natural. So, I guess I'll just have to move forward from there. Stay tuned about some Very exciting news involving some Girls I like. A lot. Coming here to UConn. Already said too much. It's not official yet, but they are promoting it on their myspace, so hopefully it actually happens. In the mean time, here's last week's playlist:
