Mud Songs via WWR

Mud Radio is still out of commission, although there is a chance it might come back on a semi-regular basis before the end of the summer. In the meantime, if you’re in the mood for a little muddish radio, you can request a show on Whole Whole Radio called Mud Songs.
I just created the wiki [...]

Skinny Legs, a collector’s item

Published by Phillip under humor, music & audio, phillip's room, wwr

Wow. I got a request from a Whole Wheat Radio listener for my cover of Lyle Lovett’s song, “Skinny Legs.” The song used to be in WWR’s library but was recently removed — probably because it played so often that Jim said enough is enough. I don’t blame him.
At any rate, by request, I present [...]

Don’t Buy Music Through MySpace

I just read this on Jim’s blog. I’ve copied and pasted the whole thing. It’s written by Danny Schmidt:
Hi —
I’m sending this note out as a bulletin to my MySpace peoples. Please feel free, though, to forward it around to your own peoples… or feel free to pass its sentiments along in your own words. [...]

WWR Rants are Back

Published by Phillip under wwr

Be careful what you post on a chat page. There are some deranged people out there who are liable to post it on their blog because, well, they’re deranged. For instance, I just read the following from Jim Kloss on the Whole Wheat Radio chat page:
Programming note: - The Rant-N-Ravin’ News is making a comeback [...]

Wheat Dog Needs a Name

Published by Phillip under phillip's room, wwr

Looks like Jim and Esther over at Whole Wheat Radio gone done and got themselves dog — apparently a dog with no name. They’re looking for suggestions.
You can add your suggestions to the wiki page they’ve posted — or you can just click the comments link below.
I’ve been holding on to two dog names [...]

I know some Whole Wheat Radio listeners are fans of Antje Duvekot.

A 70-minute concert of hers was recently posted at Folk Alley. Quite nice.

Phillip’s spys obtained this photo of Jimbob reading SWT (note the bottom left corner of it - click for larger version).
I’m assuming Jimbob uses the aliases “steve”, “tommyboy”, “pender”, etc.

Wireless Music - Part 3: The Results Are In

Oops. I kinda forgot to finish my review of the Logitech Wireless Music System I purchased back in March. Here goes — cutting to the chase:
(7/10). There is room for improvement, and the full retail price is a bit too high, but the product more or less does what I want it to do, [...]

It Is Accomplished

Just when Albert thought he found his lost car keys, a cat landed on his keyboard. It caused a glitch, not unlike what happens when you accidentally put your hand in your pants to scratch an inch. I mean itch.
Then he looked up at what appeared to be a butterfly outside his window caught in [...]

Mud Radio Notification

Although I won’t be on the mic again until sometime in June, the truly devoted Mud Radio listener(s) can now be notified when Mud Radio is on the air by installing a no-hassle little program called WebMon. The download takes about 5 seconds. The installation takes another 5 seconds. It might take 30 seconds to [...]

Malcolm Holcombe - Live Webcast

Published by Phillip under music & audio, phillip's room, wwr

Singer-songwriter Malcolm Holcombe, who can be heard on Whole Wheat Radio from time to time, is performing during a live webcast today at 4:00pm EST from Gardner Webb University. I suppose it’ll be similar to a Whole Wheat Radio house concert, but without the wheat (which is too bad, because I really enjoy the wheat).
Samples [...]
