    Fanatics!

    I am still here in Australia. The shows have been going great and I have been picking up a lot of great Australian music that we will throw into the mix in our upcoming shows.

    I am so glad you all liked the Heavy Blanket album from last week. Make sure to keep that release date in mind so you can get an LP before they all get sold. Here’s the label’s address again: http://www.outerbatteryrecords.com/

    Tonight, we have a lot of Australian music and a lot of our more familiar contributors. It’s a great night of listening with a good stretch at the end of the second hour that I think you will like. We are working our way outwards into the stratosphere and into the unfamiliar as the weather grows warmer.

    I am steadily working away on upcoming shows but am leaving some of the shows undone until I get back to Los Angeles where I can load the hard drive with records that have come in while I have been out. Can’t wait to hear the new High On The Fire album.

    If you look down at tonight’s list, I think you will see that you are in for a great two hour mix tape. I have been listening down to the tracks here in Brisbane pre-show and I am digging it! Enjoy your weekend and STAY FANATIC!!! ––Henry
