Beginning At The End
To distract myself from what’s going on with my day job, I’ll give you a bit of a heads-up on what I’ve been doing on the side… well, one of those side projects, anyway.
If you’re following me on Twitter (and if not, why?), you know that I’ve been doing a retro music show called “Headspace” on the Indie-Verse. That’s the HD side channel for 105.3 The FAN, which is also streaming atIndie-Verse.com. “Headspace” is a lot like DaM Radio, in that I’m playing whatever I feel like as long as I find it moderately good. The “format” is loosely aligned as anything that falls between Talking Heads’ debut at CBGB’s and the release of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” “Headspace” runs Tuesdays and Fridays at Noon CST.
Tomorrow’s show is a bit different, though. I saw that Wendy & Lisa were releasing their fifth album, White Flags of Winter Chimneys, independently of any recording studio – recorded, produced, and unleashed online all on their own. Can’t get more Indie than that. So, put in an interview request with their management, and a week later, I’m telling the Girl Brothers about the time I saw them, along with Prince & The Revolution, at Reunion Arena on New Year’s Day 1985.
The show that contains that conversation, along with tracks from their new and older albums, airs tomorrow at Noon. Listen in at Indie-Verse.com or on 105.3 HD2 in Dallas. You’ll dig it the most.
(If you’re good, I *might* post the interview in its entirety. It’s a good rollick through their careers, and I had to cut a lot of it out to fit in the hour I have on “Headspace.”)
