Interesting article Derek ...who could ever dream of trying to pull a stunt like that! I see a screenplay in the works!

Sorry Derek, no archives on the Crypt ...in a way that's the beauty of radio though! you put something out there on the airwaves and then it vanishes into the ether. If i miss it, i miss it. If i manage to tune in for the occasional good show, i have had the privilege of catching a moment in time that can't be repeated, in a way. It's like catching a good concert at a club.

Now i know what your thinking, ...what's the difference if it happens to be a podcast ...not everyone has the ability to listen when at work, etc. etc. Somehow listening to good radio in real time, for me, is cool because you can't fast forward through the crap ...you have to endure the odd psa and adds for used computer resellers and health food stores or change the channel. You can't rewind to catch a track again and so it forces you to listen. Admittedly i'm not very good at that though! (listening that is) The other cool thing about community radio? If you ever want to know what a track is all you have to do is pick up the phone and call the dj. They love to know that someone is actually out there and digging the music.
