There Hides the Cowboy

If you have caught the show in the past month you have no doubt figured out that I am in the middle of a huge Glen Campbell kick. I will not try to put in words how great he is because I will just end up embarrasing myself. The man just rules. Now there is news of his final album in which he will be doing another Paul Westerberg song (he did "Sadly Beautiful" on his last one), and "Hold On Hope."

Honestly, I am excited about this news. It is no secret that Bob Pollard is a huge Jimmy Webb and Glen Campbell fan. In fact, I always thought that "Death of the Party" was Bob's attempt to write "Rosecrans Boulevard." That doesn't even begin to make since. Anyway, this must be a great honor to him. The song isn't my favorite in the GbV canon, but then, I never thought it was very bad either. Certainly not as bad as "The Flame."

The Rounds of the Drunk Table

The station continues to top the 100 hours listened/30 day mark. This makes me very happy. We are also coming up on another big milestone for the show, the 75th episode. For this wonderful occasion I brought back my buddies who helped out with the 50th show and recorded another round table. This time around I let them pick the topics to play/discuss. It was another great show and should be up in the near future.

The Dayton basketball season ended very fittingly by losing to X in the A-10 tournament. I am disappointed that RL lost his cool at the end of the game, but he wasn't the only guilty party in that situation. I dedicated a song in my latest show to X's extremely classy Tutu for being such a heads up player. Have fun being the next Dedrick Finn.
