Off-shift topic: We heard Eno's China My China on Bryce's show Friday and dropped a few comments. Over the weekend, where do I hear Brian, mos' unexpectedly? On NPR, delivering a personal essay for a "This I Believe" segment -- about the humanity, therapeutic benefits and general importance of singing, singing socially/communally. Singin' 'bout pickin' cotton, no less.

peter choyce:

Ok, i'm here for the next 3 hours. I have no where else to go, obviously.

Lets see what NYC has done to your tastes. So far, all i hear is LIGHT JAZZ. what is this called?
Are u ever going to do a special rock show on SPONDYLOLTHESIS of the LUMBAR? Contact anytime for interview... no, thank YOU.
  3:14pm
peter choyce:

no offense, but i did not make it through. i heard what seemed to be mice in the walls. Seems like none of the DJs at your station like music, definatley not rock music. great website, tho. see? I keep it positive.
But is there ONE show that i could enjoy? you know what i like, and i'm hardly MAINSTREAM, but this, ben- water dripping thru a synthesizer, is ridiculous. come back little sheeba. you've gone too FAR OUT. Don't listen to me. u know what yer doin... i'm sayin, tho- u can upchuck yer listening audience a lot by throwing in a sonic youth or stereo lab once in a while. it won't kill you. the BIRDS chirping can wait.
