I just sent this out, indiscriminately, to every person who has ever emailed me, or received email from me. But just in case neither of these scenarios apply to you, here is said email:

Hey there, handsome and discerning person.

Did you know that I, your favorite non-traditional, thirtysomething college student, am doing a radio show again? Yes indeedie. I am producing yet another version of Contraband, this time with a focus, or at least emphasis, on eighties alternative music (BTW, for me, the eighties both ENDED when Nirvana’s Nevermind came out and INCLUDES music by bands that influenced college radio bands in the eighties, like Stooges, Velvet Underground, and Big Star). It’s pretty much what you’d expect: the classics (Cure, Smiths, Echo & The Bunnymen, Replacements, New Order), the quirky stuff that was always along for the ride (They Might Be Giants, Public Image Ltd, Love & Rockets, Dead Milkmen, Camper Van Beethoven), and the truly obscure (Pianosaurus, Young Marble Giants, The Fall). If you were listening to the Fall 2002 version of Contraband, it’ll be a lot like that, but minus the new stuff. I, however, have only gotten better looking in the nearly two years since then. Such a shame to waste this face/bod on radio! But oh well. :)

Anyway, you can tune in every Wednesday night, from 9:00 to 11:00 Eastern, at 91.5 FM, for you denizens of the 48858 ZIP code, or at http://www.bca.cmich.edu/WMHW/index.htm for the Internet savvy (you need to have Quicktime).

You can email me requests anytime, though particularly during showtime, at contrabandradio@hotmail.com.

Cheers,
Andy Price
