My house had a wam bam break-in today. MacBook, cameras… Gone. I had to miss out on my KALX show tonight in lieu of police reports. My apologies if you tuned in, and didn’t find me. Thanks to Mixstress 9 for coming to the rescue and saving the show. Today has been le suck.
Tonight, let me and my tracks sing you to sleep. I’ll be broadcasting live on KALX 90.7FM 9:00PM - Midnight (PST), so be sure to tune in for your fix of the sweetest pop and smoothest soul, new and old, currently transmitting from our fine bay area.
Stream live at http://kalx.berkeley.edu.
It’s gunna be sassy.
Yes! I concur fully. My friend Jen always has the wisest lampshades.

It kicks off at 9PM, streaming live at http://kalx.berkeley.edu until midnight. If you have a suggestion of a track not worth missing from last year, give me a call at (510) 642-KALX.
