Friday, September 29th, 2006 ... 3:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. ... KZSU, 90.1 FM

I've gone back to adding links to artists' names. I'd tried this last year and stopped because I thought it made the page look funny. For whatever reason, I've decided that's not the case any more. Plus, it's not like I'm shooting for any Web design awards here.

I'm still trying to find a good routine for typing up these notes, as it takes a surprising 60-90 minutes. Doing it during the show didn't work, even with the 10- to 20-minute spaces that I'd get during songs. (One problem: We get a lot of business-related phone calls on Fridays, and I'm usually the only one available to take them.) New idea: Putting up a skeleton during the show, and fleshing out the annotations over the weekend. So, in the bizarre event that someone is actually looking up these pages during or right after each show -- the notes will take a day or two to appear. Sorry for the wait! Feel free to e-mail me if you're looking for the title of a particular track you heard : ctm at sonic dot net.
