Fanatic! What a show we've got lined up for you. I went to Amoeba a few days ago and got some great records. The Dinosaur Jr. re-issues on Cherry Red, so far, have been amazing. I rocked Without A Sound last night. Wow! It's never sounded better. I also got the 2LP reissue of Dehumanizer by Black Sabbath and that sounds great as well. The extra live tracks are crushing. Hopefully, I'll have time this week to get deeper into the stack and tell you about it next week.

For our show this evening, I thought we would work inside the idea of earlier sunsets as the temperature will vary depending on where you're listening from and perhaps the light cycle was a better way to go.

As much as I like October, I've come to the conclusion that it's only the days that prepare you for November. I was in Washington DC for a couple of days last week and the weather was perfect. I got in a lot of great listening and even worked with Ian MacKaye on a project we've been wanting to do for a long time. We both think it went well and hopefully next year we will present our case.

I've been working on and off all through the weekend on next week's show, which I just finished. I'm listening now and it's working. I'll give it another pass just to make sure but I think we've got it.

We hope you dig the show tonight and thanks again for listening.
