Radio Show Song List Week 13 (LAST SHOW) WTSR
today was my last show yall. i suddenly felt like i was going to miss it a lot, despite having to wake up so early for it, like i would like to keep doing it. maybe i will do a live internet radio thing once a week, idk, its fun to do, i’ll miss it.
the best part of doing it was how it evolved into something more than me just going into the studio and playing music and sitting alone for 2 hours and leaving. i was actually looking forward to that in some ways when it all first started, seemed like, real relaxing, so im not saying that that would have sucked. but, it turned into something much better i think, when Ben Brooks and Crispin Best chatted me during it and started giving me crazy things to say on air every week. after several weeks of tuning in i think Ben got busy, because he disappeared, but Crispin still tuned in for some after that, and it kept going, because at that point there were a few others that had joined in on it. basically, it turned into a sort of game, that any other listeners, besides any of you that read this or my tweets or were a part of the game in the first place, probably interpreted as me being really insane and weird, which added to the thrill of doing it
thanks everyone for contributing funny things to say or for listening over the past semester. shout out to DJ Berndt who definitely became the top contributor/listener as the semester went on, his enthusiasm for it kept me enthused to do the show every week. anyway, here’s what happened during today’s show:
- sang 1-2 verses and chorus of ‘hollaback girl’ (gwen stefani) a capella (via DJ Berndt, but also I really wanted to do this, lol)
- gave a short speech that went as follows: ‘it’s my last show, and i just want to thank all my influences: beetlejuice, donkey kong, President and Commander-in-Chief Obama, gwen stefani, and chad kroger’ (via DJ Berndt)
- went on air and sang lil bits of ‘cool’ (gwen stefani) while it was playing
- introduced a song by saying ‘this next track will take the fly out of your soup and put the onion in your funyun’ (via DJ Berndt)
- introduced a song by meow-ing and nothing else, about 4-5 meows (via Omar De Col)
- read something from the community calendar and it said to visit a url and the end of the url said ‘childfest’, because it was like a festival for kids or something, but like ‘childfest’, cmon right, sounds weird, so i stopped and said something like ‘childfest… that always sounds weird to say.. childfest.. whew’
- talked about Steve Roggenbuck, said how he was on the radio last night somewhere on the west coast and kept saying ‘6666666666666’ and then i said ‘live my lief’ in steve’s voice (this was all to introduce a recording we have of a guy, who sounds just like steve, that i was about to play, it was like a plug for something)
- played Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It) (which is totally not something approved to be played by the station, too ~mainstream~, but it was my last show so who cares right), said ‘this one goes out to the fact that i dont have a boyfriend’
- sang ‘Just a Girl’ for a few verses with the music turned down really low (DJ said he couldnt hear the music at all so basically i was just a capella again)
thanks DJ, Omar, and Elaine for listening today, and anyone else who was maybe listening idk
oh man what am i gna do every friday morning from 8-10am now (ha)
