Episode 21 - Radio Attack Mix

Here is the frantic 21st birthday of ACARC. Somehow, despite total shambles, I manage to go to that amazing place that was spring break in Boston, 2001 or 2002 or both. Those weeks represent the most compulsive record buying of my life. To bring things back to REAL LIFE, after playing Tina, Age 13, I went to the Che Cafe where I saw the main dude from the Groovie Ghoulies!

Episode 20 - "Be Positive"

I actually met the creator/editor of Arthur Magazine this fall. He came down from L.A. to see Doug Paisley play at the Che to an audience of roughly 10 people. I did not condone him for resurrecting Sparks. Also in this episode, I lift a 5 year old "they're too twee" ban on The Softies finally realizing that I have the power to reclaim them from their shitty Esty loving fans.
