    Fanatics! As you listen to this, I am in the desert at Coachella. Engineer X and I pre-taped this show several nights ago. I put together what I hope will prove itself to be a solid and satisfying batch of music. I played this set over and over again for some time before calling it finished.

    I met some of you last week at the RadioActive event at the Park Plaza Hotel. I thought that was a good time and it seemed that everyone was having a blast. It was great to meet you and thanks for all the kind words about the show.

    Interesting stuff tonight from new band Mi Ami. The men from Farflung sent me their new album and we put one of the tracks into the mix tonight. I like this record a lot. The new Horrors track has me captivated and I can’t wait to hear the whole album. This track is nothing like anything from their first album and this makes me all the more interested.

    The last track of our show tonight was a selection by my Brother in Sonic Jihad, Engineer X. Vieux Farka Toure is really great. I have his new album and waiting for the green light from the label as to when I can play some of it on the radio. If you like what he does, you will like the new album.

    Next week will be our Post Punk broadcast. I have been looking forward to playing this one for you for many weeks now. I think I have it right where I want it now. It was missing something and I added it last week and now it feels ready.

    I know that many of you are out here with me in the shifting sands of the Coachella Festival. I hope you are enjoying yourselves and will check out this show on archive when you get a chance. Until next week when we go back in time ... STAY FANATIC!!! --Henry
