You're Invited to the WTBU Awards!

I know this is short notice, but I'm inviting you all (and you too!) to the WTBU Awards tomorrow night (Sunday) 7:30 at BU Central. Schist That Rocks is nominated for "Best Variety Show" and "Best Header," and your other favorite WTBU show(s) are nominated for stuff too. There's free food, too, so come and have a good time! Also, please find me and say 'hi!' I'll be the one that looks awesome.

Hey Everybody!
So, I hope you enjoyed the warm sunny weather, cuz it disappeared and might not come back next week.

More importantly, I hope you enjoyed this week's show. As promised, here's the cover art for 8 Ball Aitken's album Rebel With a Cause. Special thanks to Sarah from Rock, Socks & Bollocks for showing this to me!
I played some new music, specifically: "Toumei Sunday" by Funanori (a Mike Watt & Kaori Tsuchida project) and two songs ("No Dialogue" and "White Christmas") off of Slothbear's fisrt full length LP "Qids." Qids came out this past week and is available for free digital dowload here. It's pretty darn good, and since it's free, I'd suggest you check it out!

oh, and I've got some BIG NEWS! The station now records and archives all shows, which makes my plans for uploading all shows a lot easier! Very soon you'll be able to listen to any episode of Schist that Rocks at any time on your computer.

Remember that Battle of the Bands I mentioned? Well, the finals are tomorrow (Saturday) at the All Asia Bar in Cambridge. The winner gets to come onto Schist that Rocks, so you might wanna check that out. I think if you pay (21+: $8, everyone else: $12), you get to vote for your fave. I won't be able to be there, but there were a couple good bands last time.

So, I think that's all. Lemme know what you think of Slothbear and Funanori! Have a great weekend.

Kicking things off

So, if you listened to WTBU on Tuesday, you enjoyed (and were heavily distracted from your final exam studies by) some music that totally rocks as well as the sound of my voice. If you didn't, I recorded a bunch of the show, which I will rip onto my computer and post here in the near future (as I plan to do with all future shows). Topics included old rockers, Iggy's most recent album, and performers who wear full suits on stage.
Hopefully Schist that Rocks will get a spot on WTBU (and a good one!) starting in January. In the meantime, I'll probably make a few posts about things that rock; music, movies, people, whatever.
Also, feel free to let me know if you have any suggestions (things to check out, things to do differently, things that rock) or questions (ie: "Did you eat paint chips as a kid?").
