Best of KXUA all this week and next!



Kind of late to post this I guess, but this week, next week (and last week) we will have (and have had) mostly the best of KXUA playing in lieu of random automationness. By that I mean old recordings of great KXUA shows. (So that's why the Drive in Speakerbox was playing at 8:00AM this morning!) So the good part is that we don't have to listen to randomness for days and days, we get hand picked music from KXUAs most dedicated DJs. The bad news is that we get a lot of confusing out dated PSAs, concert calendars, and references to what time it is that are totally off. THIS CAN BE WEIRD! But, the keen listener should be able to pick up on the fact that it's a recording. KXUA will continue to play best of shows until DJs start coming back possibly sometime next week. DJs that are still in town are still doing there shows at their regular times.

ALSO, we now have an answering machine in the studio on the request line. So, if no one is in the studio give it a call and leave us a message. Good messages will be used on the air!

The Drive-in Speakerbox Christmas Special




Ho Ho Howdy folks!

Christmas completely snuck up on me again and knifed me in the back with its frosty katana of holiday cheer. Malls are flooded with last minute shoppers who will produce frowns from relatives young and old when that crappy last minute gift has to be returned as soon as they leave. Times filled with holiday treats that you choke down just because "they worked so hard on it" and sitting around the tree exchanging gift cards to various stores that may or may not go out of business in a few months, when you could have just not traded gift cards at all and spent your own money on yourself...but it's the spirit of giving that counts right? There's just something about the bitter cold, deadly driving conditions, blood thirsty bargain shoppers, selfish whiny brats, and increase in cholesterol that brings out the good in all of us!

So here's my gift to you! Another Christmas special of the most selfish kind. That's right, it's all my favorite holiday movies that get me in the holiday spirit. Don't question my choices! It's Christmas music and you'll damn well like it. There's no receipt for returns or exchanges on this one!
