The Return of The Rhetorical Situation

Looks like we've got our new time for the show: Fridays, noon to 2 p.m. You can catch it live at KBVR.com or listen in at 88.7 FM around Corvallis. The station has a new mp3 recorder, too, so I shouldn't have much trouble putting the show here each week again. I'm sure we'll never run into any technical problems at the station again!

Since we're moving to a 2-hour show, you'll get to hear more classic witty banter from me and Jacob (you can replace the "w" back there with "sh" as appropriate). See, it's even coming through on the blog post about the show. And we'll have to expand genres. We'll probably begin including some hip-hop, more bluegrass, dance tracks, small animal noises--whatever it takes to fill two hours of show each week. Good thing we've got a healthy supply of time on our hands right now! (Nervous sarcasm.)

Blah blah, here, at last, is the track listing from our Dec. 10 show. The old mp3 player failed us again that week.

Rocco DeLuca and the Burden, "Done"
Metric, "Sick Muse"
The Devil Makes Three, "Old Number Seven"
Monsters of Folk, "The Right Place"
Drive By Truckers, "18 Wheels of Love"
Michael Franti, "Say Hey (I Love You)" (#6 All Rebel Rockers)
Gogol Bordello, The Supertheory of Supereverything"
TV on the Radio, "Shout Me Out" (#9, dear science)
Portishead, "Glory Box"
XX, "VCR" (#2 XX)
The Arctic Monkeys, "Fire and the Thud"
No Fi Soul Rebellion, "Let's Pretend" (#3 on Alaska Chic)

I'll include a video and the making of the video from Metric. Their album "Fantasies" might very well be my top album of 2009.
