you will all get to hear my voice ...

didn't you just take this out of your signature for fear of SOMBies listening online and furiously masturbating to the sound of your voice whilst thinking about your recent lesbian experience?

kat is playing the PR game cleverly.

i'm a psych major, what can i say.

Give my best to Dave Black. I fucking love that dude.

i would totally do that if i knew who you were.



EDIT: okay, figured it out ... you changed your name/avatar since the new incarnation of the board.

Yeah, what's with that? I've been Freddie Freelance for 20+ years, but everyone else has to try to be confusing.

i know you're all going to be listening...


right?



RIGHT?

You're final hour is on the same time as Smallville.

that's unfortunate.




i got into that show whie in france. watching that shit dubbed is hy-sterical.


okay, back to the board ...

Are you in a bad mood? First Fiona Apple and now Elliot Smith...

Oh. I thought Kat was Elliot Smith.

I'm so confused.

I turned it off b/c I don't want to hear her voice and have it ruin my positive perception of her.

i just got a "long-time listener, 3rd-time caller" call. *awwww* i'm touched.


trust me, my voice will not ruin your perception of me.

no, they just flow well together.

Nice stuff kat

I've really started to enjoy college radio since I started DJing here in DeKalb. I think its really cool now to have a bunch of college stations on my iTunes.

Oh shit, I love this Cat Power song.

PS: You're stations website is WAY better than mine.

thanks, KA. i am obsessed w/the cat power song as well (thus i play it every week...)

i will try to catch your show next week...

(our website used to suck, btw, don't worry)

what the heck is this bagpipes shit

amelie soundtrack. i use it for voicebreaks.

isn't this PSA GREAT?

Re: PSA.

Ouch.

Edit:

Oh dear.

You just redeemed yourself with Rendezvous...

HOLY SHIT. That safe-sex PSA was hysterical.

i'm not responsible for the PSAs around here (although i actually think that one won some CMJ award...must not have been much competition that year). we try to make them as amusing (disgusting?) as possible.


****

I loooove this song ("storm returns"). Nello Furtado (taken via YSI on the SOMB) up next ...

KA:

You doing Northern Star Radio?


Signed,

Former 'KDIer

two words:


.

Agreed. Nice one, Kat.

Do you ever play Children of Bodom or Candiria?

given that a large portion of my setlist comes from the SOMB, i'd hope so i'll be back next week....


no; please englighten me


thank you for listening, folks! i feel the love.

Em0r

yes I am doing Northern Star Radio

I don't know what 'KDIer means...

Signed

'KDI aka WKDI was the college station before some general manager bastard embezzled funds and the SA shut the station down. I find it funny that there was always this slightly contentious relationship between the station and the Star (for which I wrote music reviews) and now they are running the show. Where do you broadcast from? On campus?

Kat:

I'll have to give you a listen next week...great stuff on the playlist.

I always wondered what happened to WKDI.
I remember calling the station one time to ask for Dreadlock Holiday.
They said it was on their 'banned' list, and could not play it. Sheeeit.
Oh yeah, fuck the Northern Star.

Do you have a playlist posted somewhere? I'll listen in next time, I was busy doing....things.

go under tab "schedule" --> "search"
search w/dj name "kat"

Can you add Nirvana's "Rape Me"?
That's be great, srsly.

I was wondering who would get to this first.

Well, I could have started a "TOP TEN BEST RAPE SONGS EVAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!" thread...

dr. bill's working on that

Look everyone, Kalmia said something funny!

Nice job.

We broadcast from the same office as the Star actually, in our own converted closet, er, studio. As far as contentious relationships go, I can't really say yes or no. On one hand, our current editor-in-chief is a really cool guy who loves NS*Radio and wants to see it grow.

But on the other hand, there's not much that really gets done in the way of promoting the stuff on the station. For one, not many people are actually sitting down and listening to our internet station. Plus, when we were trying to advertise for our first ever NS*Fest, we were kinda pushed aside so that they could advertise something for Campus Ministries.

And for what its worth, I'd love to write reviews for the star, but I can't work for NS*Radio and the Northern Star at the same time!

Still, I love doing the show for some reason. Hopefully I'll get a manager job next semester, so I can actually get paid for my time.

That sux that you can't do both. It's pretty sweet to get paid for the gig, but in my case academics really suffered when I was Music Director. I miss having a show and am thinking about getting into community radio here...





Yeah, it was weird that there were some "banned" songs. Donovan's "Season of the witch" had a big DO NOT PLAY ON THE AIR sticker on the album. I couldn't for the life of me figure out why.

There are many, many reasons to not play Donovan on the air...
