Music of the Week: THE WONDERS Little Wild One; CORNERSHOP Brimful of Asha; ARCTIC MONKEYS I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor; X The New World

Rising with a Bullet: THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS Birdhouse in Your Soul; THE BOY LEAST LIKELY TO Be Gentle With Me; A BAND OF BEES Time Is On My Side

Jonesy Moments: TODD RUNDGREN We Gotta Get You a Woman; THE KNACK That's What the Little Girls Do To You; SUPERGRASS Grace; THE NORMAL--Warm Leatherette; THE YACHTS Yachting Type; EMMYLOU HARRIS Red Dirt Girl; THE LOVEMAKERS Shake That Ass; TELEPOPMUSIK Breathe; FRANK SWEET AND TITCH HOFFS do some covers (aka MATTHEW SWEET and SUSANNA HOFFS)

New Mornings:
MONDAY--Joe Escalante
TUESDAY--?
WEDNESDAY--The wondrous Chuck P. returns to the Morning Show with an All-Coachella set. Isn't it funny how these are all artists that Indie already plays? Despite that, Chuck gives us cuts from deep on their albums, and live in-studio new songs (from Metric). Great great stuff. THIS should be a podcast.
THURSDAY--?
FRIDAY-- TK!!!

Morning DJ Favorite:
Last Week: Too close to call
This Week: Chuck P.'s All Coachella Morning

Honorable Music Mentions: YEAH YEAH YEAHS Gold Lion; SCREAMING TREES Nearly Lost You; FRANZ FERDINAND Darts of Pleasure; THE CANDYSKINS For What It's Worth; JEFF BUCKLEY Everybody Wants You

Commercials of note: TK does this commercial with the luscious Tanya Roberts for a hotel in Vegas. I listen intently, it sounds interesting. Sometime later in the week, I accidentally happen upon another commercial for the same place on another radio station. Some loud obnoxious DJ guy shouting about this new hotel in Vegas. I thank my lucky stars again that TK is on my radio station, doing commercials, and change the channel back quickly. NO ONE does commercials better than TK.

Is that heaven, or what?; so, I'm listening and suddenly hear Joe Jackson, performing live. A bootleg, played by a guest from the band Atmosphere. So bloody cool. This is why Indie is the coolest station around.; Interesting how the Indie airwaves are filled post-Coachella with all the Indie bands that played!!!!!!

I know for a fact that she pulled a lot of those songs right off of Yes.com.
There were a few songs on her list that were played during commercials.
Yes.com doesn't know the difference between songs played in ads and songs actually played by the DJ. There was a commercial running on Jonesy for the Mark Knoffler/Emmy Lou Harris show that played the song "Red Dirt Girl" a couple weeks ago. Yes.com was listing that the song was being played 2-3 times during Jonesy's Jukebox all week. Same with "Telescope Eyes" by Eisley .

But but but....NO...say it aint so, Joe...she swore that she listened to every song that she listed....

Technically, I suppose she did....but I am sure that it is not how she meant it.....good catch there, Robert.....

Thanks, Gidge. Of course, the down side is that I had to admit that I look at Yes.com too. :wink:

I don't think that there is anything wrong with using that program as a reference....ya know...ooooo what WAS that song? Let me look it up....but I do think that it's stupid to use that to post a weekly list and state that you listen to EVERY song that is played closely enough to LIST it.....if she had said that her list was assisted by Yes dot whatever it wouldn't have been so bad....


Oh, who am I kidding? Yes it would have.....;)
