If you caught the show last night, we played it straight again, just like the old days, you know, just two turntables (well, CD decks) and a microphone(s). No dogs, no slogans, just great beer. We also featured a gaggle of new local music from Boulder Acoustic Society, Paper Bird,…

Last night ended up being another greatest hits installment, in which I played as many of my favorite cuts from the past eight months worth of shows that I could jam into two hours. That number, as it turns out, is 28, in case you were wondering. Didn’t really plan…

“Ah, man, I love this song!” I must make this remark a lot during the show. Last night, as I was marveling out loud about one of the tunes — I’m not sure which one, but I think it might’ve been “Skinny” by Scaffolding — Andy pointed out the obvious:…
