Just reminded of a weird coincidence. Post yours here. |
|
(At least I hope it was a coincidence.)
When John Lennon was shot, one of the local rock stations was in the middle of doing a Top 20 countdown, and after they announced the shooting, they played Hit Me With Your Best Shot, Shoot to Thrill, and Another One Bites the Dust. Consecutively.
Doo-dee doo-dee, doo-dee doo-dee...

1. I talked about this a couple nights ago |
|
On the night Hunter Thompson shot himself, we were playing an audio presentation of "Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas" on the station. I was actually listening to it and posting here when word got out. I'll never forget that.

3. Wow, you DO play everything! |
|
FYI the station was K-97 (97.3), which I presume is a completely different station these days. Graham Hicks from the Sun used to guest on an hour geared toward new releases. Ugh, I couldn't stand him. His dissing of Devo didn't endear me to him, either. They did play some neat stuff now and then, though. It's where I first heard Stairway to Gilligan!
(Speaking of Devo, just a reminder that the 1980 Live DVD is supposed to come out on August 23rd. Speaking of which, when are the next IMPs going to be posted?)
Ugh, I may be about to turn in. Cheers!

6. Hey, I still have four songs to request. |
|
Too bad our hours seem so out-of-synch. I'll think of some good stuff, regardless.
G'nite!

They must be changing the software. Red Pill or Blue?

5. Columbia & Paul Wellstone dreams |
|
Like three days before Columbia broke up, I had a dream that the Shuttle crashed into the city of Atlanta and set it on fire.
The night before Paul Wellstone's plane crashed, I had a weird dream I was floating down a river "highway" with interstate signs above it, and a dying woman on an inner tube headed off onto an "exit" for "Eleva" (Wellstone's plane crashed in Eleveth, MN)
That's all I got. Time for me to go to sleep and predict the future..

(and I'm not superstitious, but this sent a chill through me anyway)
The day the Iraq war started, I found a dead bird in my backyard. Not just dead, ripped in half.
And what sort of bird was it? A dove.
How's that for bizarre coincidence?
