Lyrical Venus: Female Singer-Songwriters Tues 9AM - Voices On The Verge

You were the last in my twenty-fourth year
To make a demand of my voice
I tickled your ear and I laughed in your face
I gave you my choice
We were born to hum
We were born to hum

~Erin McKeown, Born to Hum

Voices On The Verge was the name of a tour with Rose Polenzani, Erin McKeown, Jess Klein, and Beth Amsel back in 2002. I was living in Boulder at the time and my roommate brought back a CD from their concert which was put into heavy rotation for the rest of my time there. Years later I was happy to re-discover this album, that I still loved the songs on it, and that all four ladies have gone on to release their own solo albums in the years since the tour. Tune in Tuesday at 9am to hear the full concert, plus a few of their newer songs! read more »

Saturday Night Live Jethro Tull & King Crimson

James Moore — Sat, 21 Jul 2007 18:16:36 -0500

TONigHT on Saturday Night Live, it's two seminal English bands:

First up, Jethro Tull from a concert they did in 1978 called Bursting Out.

Is concert touring as exciting as before or do you ever become
tired of it?

Ian Anderson: It's my job. When I was a child, I always wanted a great job. I didn't leave Art College to become pop star: I left to attempt a career as a professional working musician. I love my job and I still have it.

If you could choose the words for your epitaph, what would they be?

"Thank you and goodnight". Or perhaps, "Any chance of a wake-up call?" I think that probably covers it. read more »

Next up it's King Crimson with their 1996 show, aptly named THRaKaTTaK, an instrumental tour de force, for all you 21st century schizoid men and women.

The Real History of Rock 'N' Roll From The Daller Family - 1950's to Today

Doug Daller — Sat, 14 Apr 2007 15:58:20 -0500

This Saturday we'll have generations of A Fistful of Dallers' music. The first KRUU live feed from Café Paradiso, 8-10pm, (see James' recent post), will feature Adrien Daller singing accompanied by her brother Dain Daller on synthesized tracks, and by me, Doug Daller on piano.

Then my KRUU show, A Fistful of Daller's, 10-12pm, will feature the history of rock 'n' roll in the Daller family. My oldest brother, Bill Daller, will bring in his collection of the first 45 records in the Daller household. This, and AM radio in Detroit, is how my brothers and I got introduced to rock 'n' roll when it first began in the early 1950's.

Mindy Meacham

Mindy Meacham on KRUU-FM Tonight!

[Bummer, dudes and dudettes, we were unable to do the hook up but we will perservere, primp and prevail.]

Local diva-in-the-making Mindy Meacham will be performing this evening at Cafe Paradiso starting at 8pm. She will be accompanied by Doug Daller on piano. Her show will cover a wide variety of styles.

Hopefully everything will go off smooth as a peach and without the least hint of a snafu, God willing and the creek don't dry. read more »
