Wow, it's been pretty busy the past 40-something days. It's been nearly six months since my last show[25weeks for those who have been counting]but at the same time it feels like the show's first season just ended. I've done a plethoria of Interviews over the course of the summer and have plenty more to come.
I'm pretty stoked to get back to doing the show every week. Over the course of the last six months some INCREDIBLE records have been released. So many that there are some records I haven't had the time to listen to; or even apperciate.
My second year of college has been pretty busy thus far, mix work in with that and the fact they've been booking me 25-35 hours a week and it's been quite the juggle.
THE SHOW IS NOW WEDNESDAYS FROM 7-8PM
At this point in time i'm still picking/figuring out the setlist for the first week, and what surprise interview I will have on the show. I've also started using myspace [http://www.myspace.com/rockthewallsradioshow] to post the shows, as it is ALOT more organized and easier to follow. Expect a layout to be up in the coming week or so.
After every show i'm going to make the show as well as the full interview of the band featured on the show available online for people's listening[AND viewing-details to come] pleasure. As well I'll have the music news and show setlists via text along with it.
I'm going to start to try and post on this everyday. whether it is a article, or a video updating you on a ton of shit, i'll do it. This is going to be the place for editoral/opinion/news. The myspace will be used for dates and useful/helpful links.
Hopefully some people will tune in on Wednesday and be stoked on the show. Doing the show is something I almost can't put into words how much I really enjoy it. If just ONE kid/person loves the show out of 50, 100, or 1000 people that listen, that's fucking sweet. It's being able to get people into new music/bands and to be able to inform them on the upcoming shows/latest news/ new music that they love is something I take with a unmatched amount of passion.
Right now in "the scene" it is at a bit of a crossroads. While the negative aspects of the scene seem to be sticking out, there is also a crazy amount of good music coming out. It's just something you have to take with a grain of salt. We could all get pissed off at Brokencyde and others, but really, what's the point? There are many bands that I can't really comprehend that people like, but everyone has their own musical tastes.
With my show I'm trying to help you sift through all the auto-tune/recycled breakdowns garbage and get to the good/worthwhile stuff. Hopefully you'll listen at some point in time this season to see what the show is about, and to checkout some music from some awesome ska, punk, and hardcore bands. I may have rambled on a bit, but what would you expect? It's been a long time!
Getting Ready For Wednesday,
