This Sunday, I’ll be DJing Beachland Brunch starting at 11am and I’ll be playing a selection of krautrock. My friend Steven from WRUW’s Radio Paprika kindly invited me to his show and allowed me to entertain the Cleveland audience with generous two hours of music. First hour was mostly Yugoslav ethno-rock to fit into his general theme and the second hour was a deep dig into the krautrock history. I had a great time being on 91.1FM again (also KLSU frequency!) and here’s that show in case you missed it as Flashlite #877!

When Dead Milkmen came to Cleveland in 2013 to do Halloween Ball, but the power went out at the Cleveland Public Theater. I helped the band find a way to WCSB and they did a show there live over the air. I placed my zoom recorder in the studio booth. This January 10th Dead Milkmen return to Cleveland to help students get back into the operation after a hostile takeover conducted by NPR affiliate Ideastream and local public university CSU. Here’s the historic performance from 2013!
