Any chance we could get a playlist posted here? I thought I heard Hank about 20 minutes ago but wasn't sure who it was.

Occasionally, I break with the schedule and do shows during the day and that kind of thing, so I'll make sure I update this thread with any news about that.

Thanks for the interest, though!

[Big Wheel]

You're welcome. Thanks for posting that!

[chuckyd4]

Since some actually seemed interested in this... I thought I'd go ahead and post the play list for tonight's show (Sunday 1/11) - this will give an idea of all the different shows... what kind of music you can find.

Also, we'd love to see some more people comment on the reviews!

Edited January 11, 2004 by chuckyd4

[chuckyd4]

Okay, so top 2 requests seem to be:

1) Start earlier/keep it on longer

2) Post playlists.

As for #2, we are working on it... gonna try to write a program that will automatically post it to the site as the radio show plays, with links to buy the discs they come from. This should happen within the next couple of weeks.

WRT #1, I have just officially updated the schedule. The shows will now start at 4 PM on the appropriate day, run on their 3 hour loop and keep going late into the night.

Thanks for listening and enjoy!

[Guest Chaney]

Excellent ideas!

I'd usually tune in late only to catch the end of the show and as I go to bed at 10:00 p.m. (pathetic, I know), listening to the replay was not an option.

[chuckyd4]

OK... since I have the time right now... here's today's (Sunday 12/18) playlist, currently playing until 4am (EST).

[BERIGAN]

chuckyd4,

IS the link still good??? It wants to use media player, but media player says the link is corrupt, or that it doesn't support this format...I have the "big three" players....

[chuckyd4]

Hey Berigan-

Thanks for the heads up. Looks like the connection was going a bit wonky, trying to connect twice (?!?) for some reason... technically it had a "stale source entry".

Anyway, point being try it again now and everything should be working just fine. As far as I know, it works just fine with media player.
