File Under Pop

This Sunday from 10 to 12 PM is likely my final show on WQFS. Summer air is finishing up, I am moving in September at some point, so I won't have a show next semester. I have been on the air for about two years at WQFS, and it has been a lot of fun. It gave me something to do in a new town and helped me connect with the local scene. I did radio in college in Boston, and it has been completely natural getting back into the swing of it after over five years off the air. I am moving to New York and I will be busy in a new job, so it is not very likely I will do radio there; but I would like to get back to it someday. There is always the possibility of an internet based show in the future. The technology is easy enough; it is just a matter of paying rights.

I will be maintaining this blog (I will probably change the name but not the web address) as a mostly music blog after I move. I will probably review shows and records. I may even branch out into other cultural matters and more personal things. We will have to see what develops.

For my probable last WQFS show on Sun. night, I will be doing a Record Hospital greatest hits show. I will be playing my favorite songs by some of my favorite bands. But most of the songs will also have some sort of emotional importance. They may, for me, represent a time, a place, or certain people. So, some of my favorite bands will be left off in favor of a one off song that I love. It should be fun. I'd really like to record it to CD if anyone can help me with that technology.
