RADIO BROADCAST #395
10–23–16

Fanatic! Writing to you from Richmond, VA. A little less then 110 miles from Washington, D.C. Below, you will see that we have a perfect soundtrack for October, no matter where you are.

Things have been busy out here with a show a night and a drive afterwards. I have not been to any record stores since we started this leg of the tour but hopefully, I will turn that around soon.

I have been listening to a lot of music in the time after soundcheck, before stage time, and that’s been great. A lot of American Tapes releases and downloads of the vinyl I picked up in Australia recently.

I don’t think I am talking out of class when I tell you that I have heard the new release, An Odd Entrances, by Thee Oh Sees, coming out in November on Castle Face. It probably won’t surprise you that I think it’s really great. Can’t wait to hear that one on vinyl. Here is the site address for the label. If you get on the mailing list, you get all the cool updates.

Also, a new Deerhoof single on Famous Class. I just ordered mine. Will get those tracks into our December shows for sure. Here is where to get the info. Famous Class is a great label you should be checking out. 

I have a show starting soon and have to get some writing started, so I will leave it here. I hope you dig the tracks we have set up for you. Next week’s show is all done and it’s a great one, so please tune in of you can.

Listen twice and STAY FANATIC!!!
