Salutations™!!
I didn’t have a show this past Sunday but did last Sunday. September 2 was Labor Day but it wasn’t what was special about that day for The BCPF and me. It was our 10th anniversary. So, my show reflected bands that we had seen in concert over our 14 years of dating/marriage. Not much more to say, let’s get on with the setlist.

What are some of your favorite songs from the bands/artists that Stephanie (The BCPF) and I have seen?
Do you have ideas for show topics? I’d really love to hear your ideas because eventually (any day now), I’m going to run out of things to talk about out of my feeble brain.
Also, you don’t have to be “local” to listen. We are an internet-based radio station and are licensed to broadcast anywhere in the US, Canada, and the UK. We broadcast out of the Omniverus Studios at Liberty Plaza.
Your next question may be: well, how do we listen? We have you covered on that. The Camel City Radio app is available on both the Apple Play and Google Play stores, so we are compatible with any iOS or Android device. Also, we now have our Alexa Skill. All you have to do is say, “Alexa, play Camel City” and Bob’s your uncle. You don’t even have to say “radio” (because she takes me to some weird Pandora channel). Just “Camel City.” And now, we are on the Audacy directory. Listen anywhere on the web or in an app.
You can comment here, send an email or call 336-462-8660 and leave a voicemail. We will play your VM on the air (unless you tell us not to).
Listen to The Rose Garden of Doom on Camel City Radio on Saturday mornings at 10a-until. Eugene has The Non-Conformist Cult Radio Show on Friday Nights, 8p-midnight! I started a new Monday feature today called “New Tunes on Monday.” That happens on Mondays at 2p. All times are EASTERN!
Until next time, same blog channel at some blog time…
Scorp out!

“The producer says, ‘”‘let me change a line or two.’ And a little bit of something can look awfully good to you. And you want to scream, but you gotta keep it all inside. When you’re trying to make a living, there ain’t no such thing as pride, oh, no. Lots of promises in the dark. But don’t you open your heart.” – “Don’t Mean Nothing” (Marx/Gaitsch)
