KCRW Broadcast 742

Fanatic! Hello from Melbourne, Australia. This is the venue I’m in tonight.

I’m here tonight and tomorrow night.

I had a good day of record hunting at Vicious Sloth yesterday.

I always find something amazing there.

We’ve just announced shows for September, October and November.

Thanks to Richie at Strangeworld Records, here in Melbourne, we will have a lot of new bands to check out in the weeks upcoming. It will take us awhile to work the bands into the shows but we’ll get there. Richie turned me onto this cool group.

Heir Traffic

Between the two visits I made to his shop, we’ve got a lot of new music to check out. I’ll be getting into these records as best I can to figure out what to get into the shows.

Shows have been going great. If you’ve never been to Australia, I can recommend it without hesitation. Melbourne is one of my favorite destinations. It’s basically winter here, so it’s a lot of overcast skies, cool to cold temperatures and rain. It’s been an interesting year, touring on and off for months in pretty much the same light cycle. In Europe we were in the winter and here we are again.

I hope you’ve been getting a lot of music played. Most of my listening has been in small rooms with a show looming. It’s great of course but somewhat distracted. Show days are like hanging out with a huge wave coming ever closer.

I built this show in Europe in different cold backstage areas. We hope you dig it.

Have a great weekend and STAY FANATIC!!!
