    Hey P, what happened to Sound Opinions? It was a great lead-in to your show.

  • Paul,

    Great show so far. Just wanted to ask if maybe you could play some Beirut? It’s one of mine and my wife’s favorites – thanks! http://www.beirutband.com/

    Thank you for the great programming.

    Thanks as usual to you, Ron.

    Paul, it would be awesome if you could play some seryn, they’re a local band that’s on KXT sometimes, also, you played an industrial/techno-ish song on August 22 at around 8:40, I never could find it in your playlist and I really liked the song. Thanks for the great show.

  • paul slavens

    thanks for tuning in and writing
    see you next week

  • paul slavens

    Im guessing that August 22 at 8:40 was

    Glass Candy -Etheric Device -Beat Box

    I dont have that Seryn disc yet. I will try to get a copy.
