John's Home Address?

Kate — Mon, 09 Aug 2004 23:18:20 GMT

Did anyone see John Richard's mail on I think it was Friday? It looked like he published his home address to the 8,000+ people on his mailing list, and it surprised the hell out of me.

Did anyone else see this? Did I totally read that wrong (I hope)?

The Great Increase In Sponsorship Messages

beneluxboy — Tue, 20 Jul 2004 23:32:33 GMT

I've been dismayed in the last year to hear what seems to be a huge increase in the number of sponsorship messages. Yes, it's nice that these don't include annoying jingles or strong sales messages, but I'm tired of them. I never thought I could be tired of hearing Michelle's voice, but I'd really rather not hear her say "sponsored by..." ever again.

So I'm at the Yule Benefit....

Jana — Fri, 02 Jan 2004 23:50:59 GMT

and I decide that I'm bold enough to ask for the autograph of the lead singer of Kinky... so I run into the Liquid Lounge, find him dancing, and ask in broken spanish if I could have him sign a poster for my friend April and one for me... He signs her poster perfectly... then he goes to sign mine and I think we had a communication breakdown because my poster now says: "Para Dianita with lots of love Gil".... and I'm thinking... uh, my name is Jana.... who the heck is Dianita?? Oh well. I'll forgive him cuz he's such a cutie.

Station identification by the artists

beneluxboy — Sat, 03 Jan 2004 00:05:54 GMT

I'm curious how other listeners feel about station identification messages by the artists. Sometimes, KEXP plays one by a single artist; sometimes, they play a pastiche of several artists speaking their own names.

Are you neutral on this, or do you have a feeling about them?

Personally, the long string of people speaking their names annoys me enough to change the station (I know, I know, "To what, Gary?") or mutter under my breath, depending on my mood.

Yule Benefit

Jana — Mon, 22 Dec 2003 02:25:44 GMT

Did anyone here go? I went and had a wonderful time. Of course I had too much to drink and had a hangover for my final exam the next day but it was most definitely worth it.

I got Gil of Kinky's autograph - unfortunately I think he thought my name was Diana because my poster now says "Para Dianita, with lots of love, Gil." Oh well, what can you do? Jana and Diana are sort of similar... and "ita" is rather endearing right?
