@paparay - Regarding what yI oftou said earlier about the Hot Traxx program and how different genres used to co-exist: I often attended hardcore shows at the old Ritz in the 80s, and it wasn't uncommon on those nights for the house DJ to play something like Grandmaster Flash followed by 999 followed by Steel Pulse followed by Black Flag.

Mod Mokka Matti:

I've been a bit quiet in the chat since the show started, but have been listening in the entire time, enjoying the tunes - even taking them outside while I was doing some gardening earlier, before it got dark out to see anything here in the PNW. Sad that it looks like things are close to wrapping up.
  11:45pm
MissG:

candy the Ritz was really fun. I remember this one night, when Dianne Brill waved at the boy who became my husband, and he said dismissively, "she thinks she knows me." It was thrilling!
  11:51pm
Cannon:

Dianne Brill gave the drink tickets like noone could. But Rudolph walked the rooms. He knew who he thought " Lets keep them having free drink tickets, lets keep them here. I spoke with him he said Diane is the Tits, I'm the Balls"
