Crazy Crazy Crazy... Apparently I'm the man of the hour over at http://www.albany.edu. The Albany website crew came through the station about a month ago scopin' out CDBs new board and related ish, they snapped some photos of me with my good friend Joe Strummer and I guess that's that. Too bad I didn't get a shout out of a link back to this page... I wonder how much traffic that would have drummed up?
In other WCDB news, esteemed Urban DJ Wits sadly perished last weekend at the age of 25. Dude just got his diploma from Union and was definitely making moves. The WCDB community is very grieved by this loss. Family/friends of Wits thank you for your support through this trying time.

Hey Hey My My Yo Yo
HELLO ALBANY
HELLO
I joined the University Photo Service here at SUNYA last week, and I've been really getting into it. I broke out my old camera I haven't touched since High School and took some serious pictures. I love this club. Developing film is a real bitch, though!
The usual 6-8 DJ, Ryan, wasn't local this Friday so I stepped in to cover. I wasn't so sure about four hours of 80s though, so I considered something a little different.... Namely, 90s! We jammed out some serious 10-15 year old music and just had a grand old time in general at the station. I took maaaaad pictures but none of them were digital. After I develop them, if any are like "Awesome" I might scan 'em in.
Update: Patrick made me an animated GIF of hilarious, ridiculous, ridiculous, all of the above propensity: (From the 90s half of the program)
Kegs/Eggs was afterward, but homie don't play that much at all in general.

The above quote is my favorite because of total dude Chris Zitzmann who used to say that during marching band practice in 2001 and make me laugh so hard. I wonder what he's up to after all this time. Maybe he'll Google his own name and see this. Yeah. Wait, didn't I just host a radio show?
