[As
you may or may not know, i live in Canada, and for some reason KSHE
doesn't stream their audio to here; i have to connect via a VPN, to
spoof a non-Canadian address. This week, according to
https://whatismyipaddress.com/
i was listening from Hydesville, New York. I've never been
there before!]
Quotation
Of The Week ~ Lewis Black: The core of the American public, their
hearts and their minds are in the right place. And that gives me
hope.
It
was an abbreviated edition of The Klassics Show today. It's Memorial
Day weekend in The States and it's a KSHE tradition to play a top 500
countdown starting at 10 a.m., so we had two hours of great music
instead of the usual four. It was a bit disappointing, really, but
who am i to argue with tradition. The worst part was that there was
very little that i would consider “great” -- JT, ELO, Eagles,
Jethro Tull and The Beatles and that's about all. The Grateful Dead
track was one of their worst (i'm not a fan at all but i generally
find them at least tolerable). So i really don't think i can grade
this much more than a “B+”. Sorry....
Happy
Memorial Day to my American friends and family, hope you're staying
safe and sane.
