jantzie: but I’ll wear a bra
mistereee: hehe

NOTE TO SELF: How about you be able to rock one of the three solos from this video by the end of 2010? Dang self, you better get after it. Let me know how it goes.

I don’t know if it’s the economy, allergies, or lack of recent celebrity dirt naps, but I’m feeling a bit blue today. Thus I’ve tuned my Pandora dials into a station I lovingly refer to as “with the tracks, not against.”

Anyhoo, I’m a bit slow on the musical draw to begin with, but Pandora has been referring me to some great bands I’ve never heard. I’m particularly fascinated with the sound of Dr. Dog; it’s like my ears stole a time machine to the 1970’s. As I am but a wee lass, I pretended I was going to high school in the 1970s if 1990s equaled 1970s. This is going to be a shocker, so I hope you’re sitting down – I didn’t have many friends in school. Unless you count Freddy Mercury and David Gates.

No sense in washing out your ears cause it’s about to get all funkay in there! Holla white people style, “woot woot!”

This. Is. Awesome. Go, Scatman go.

I’m giving away two tickets to the Utah Free Media fundraiser with Tim Easton and Eilen Jewell this Saturday, May 30th at the State Room courtesy of my show, Stereo Hambone!

Enter your name and email in the comments below as many times as you wish from now until midnight MST tomorrow, Thursday May 28th. I will use the random number generator to select a winner Friday morning and notify you by email. Tickets will be available at the door on Saturday. Good luck mofos!

My first giveaway… momma would be so proud! This is for you! *Points in an upward fashion towards heaven or more specifically on a map to Oklahoma*

And make sure to check out my show, Stereo Hambone! every Wednesday 10:30pm – Midnight (MST):

Wax those surfboards, plump those pompadours, and grab the tallest tiki cocktail you can find, because Stereo Hambone is ready to rock and roll.

MEDICAL DISCLAIMER: Not for the faint of heart or those with allergies to the following – bossanova, rockabilly, swing, standards, big band, latin, exotica, surf… basically anything with vintage sensibilities and a kick-ass sound.

Kick ass concerts are a lot more fun than phone drives and bake sales, and all the cool kids are doing concerts, so naturally that’s what Utahfm is doing. Support community radio by rocking out with Stereo Hambone and UtahFM!

Podcast, get yer podcasts! Fresh podcasts, just like momma used to make:

Do you enjoy any of the following: Jesuses? Skrimshaw? Mullets?
THEN JOIN US FOR THE FIRST PART OF A VERY SPECIAL TWO PART EPISODE! (CLIFFHANGER NOT INCLUDED)

“Jesus And Hugh: Part Juan” [Episode 6 Part 1 - 04.27.09]

Any of this suit your fancy: Fatties? Bea Arthur? Hospice tents?
THEN JOIN US (AGAIN) FOR THE LEFTOVERS OF A VERY SPECIAL TWO PART EPISODE!

“Jesus And Hugh: Part Deux” [Episode 6 Part 2 - 04.27.09]

And again, you could always go to Your Lucky Break and get it yourself. But there you go.

I know you’ve been breathlessly waiting for new podcasts. Why you aren’t just following the RSS of Your Lucky Break tumblr, I have no idea. Anyhoo, here you go:

“Melungeon Salad” [Episode 4 - 04.15.09]

“Hawkin’ for Arby’s” [Episode 5 - 04.21.09]

Enjoy.

I think we (myself and my momz) all can agree, I need some hobbies. But I’m either (1) working all the time or (2) have no one to do them with or (3) incredibly lazy. So I combined all those and created a podcast with Don Jeem that we record once or twice a week during our afternoon break. Thus, “Your Lucky Break.” Clever.

We have recorded three episodes to date:

“Begin the Beguine” [Episode 1 - 04.02.09]

“Drift to the Left” [Episode 2 - 04.07.09]

“The Brassy Canoe” [Episode 3 - 04.09.09]

PS Please ignore my use of “literally” and “he’s all like.” I’m trying shock therapy to break this habit, I’ll let you know how it goes.
