I always neglect my own blog...I've posted this just about everywhere else. I'm doing a happy hour at the Tip Top with the good people of Columbus Underground . It's co-sponsored by the equally good folks at What The Rock?! . I'll be giving away 3 $20 gift certificates to What The Rock?!, and I'll have a pair of tickets to give away to the Times New Viking show at the Wexner this Friday. See you there.

Lessons learned from the first pat radio happy hour at the Tip Top: 1. Bring a sign or a banner. Most of the folks who came Thursday night were regulars who were stopping in for a bite to eat or some drinks. I needed a sign behind me indicating who I was and what I was doing there. 2. Never attempt to do a dj set remotely via the internet. I kept losing the Tip Top's wireless connection. On my to-do list is to finish copying my mp3 [...]

I ditched the streaming today. If you were one of the handful of people who listened to my stream, then you'll probably like the "radio statiion" I have done up over at last.fm . I was facing another month of royalty payments here in a couple days and finally decided that it wasn't worth it. Now that cash can go toward making the podcasts better. Maybe I'll win the lottery and bring it back, but right now, the last.fm thing ain't so bad and it only costs $3 a month.
A big tip of the chimp headphones to John Fintel of Relay Recording ( www.relayrecording.com ) for recording and mixing Paper Airplane for this edition of pat radio. It sounds great.

We also hear from other All Hail Records bands Take No Damage , Speak Easy , The Electric Grandmother , Masters of Luxury , [...]
