Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

I'll second that emotion. "Pat's Power Pop Hour(s)" is a great show on KOPN in Columbia, MO. As a former DJ on KOPN ("Sound of Music w/ Spencer" named after a certain record), I was hip to Pat's show every Friday.

I think they are now streaming online so check it out!

Re: Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

KOPN! What a great station, I listened to them all the time when I lived in the Columbia area during the late 70s. Wow, I wonder if I ever heard Spencer on the air...
Now living in St. Louis, where we have another excellent community station, KDHX.

Re: Re: Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

My radio show aired from 2002-2005 or so. It was a 10PM to midnight spot on Thursdays. The first song I ever played was "Rednecks" by Randy Newman (into "Birmingham" and "Marie" because I didn't know how to stop the CD player). Pretty funny, as my first call was a lady saying, "What happened to Randy? I was really enjoying that." I played lots of dB's, C. Drifters, "Mavericks" and a bunch of Stamey's, "Travels In The South" - my album of the year when it came out. Truly, a labor of love that show was.

I'm also in St. Louis now. KDHX is truly a treasure here. Maybe I'll try and get a radio show here - it's alot of planning and commitment though.

But it's still "over the air" free radio outside of yearly donations. With satellite, internet and tons of other options, I still believe in a 2 hour show coming through an old radio. HD radio is coming to KDHX too.

Long live radio - and the great records that need to be heard!!

What can I say except... small world.

Re: Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

Yes indeed...small...
Spencer, I now know that your name seemed familiar from your music as well as from seeing your reviews on Amazon etc. We were at the recent Bottle Rockets show at Off Broadway, perhaps you were there if not otherwise occupied.
Tonight it's the Skeletons (aka the Morells) at Lucas School House, if my Extremely Sweet Wife has the energy to make it there. We're long time fans--met them at a house concert just a few weeks ago, what a great bunch of guys!

Probably not much chance of the dB's making it out this way soon, but Peter or Chris (or both) would sure sound fine at one of these things: www.woodhouseconcerts.com

Re: Re: Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

The world's getting smaller every minute.

Yes, I plan on being at the Skeleton's show tonight in St. Louis. And, I was at that house concert with the Skeletons last month. I'll look for you tonight.

You're the one with all the tattoo's, right? :-)

Re: Re: Re: Re: Christmas Time Again on Pat's Power Pop Hour

Well, we had a great time at the Skeletons show. Spencer was delayed because he went to the Rams game (he must be one tough sonofagun, or a masochist) and we missed connections at the end so still haven't met. Next time!
