Three Tiers

Tier One One of the reasons being tossed around that the University of Houston wants to buy KTRU’s license and transmitter is that having two radio stations will strengthen UH’s bid to be a Tier One university.

Over at the KUHF website, this is what they have to say about it:

Three Parts

Part One My bus ride every day is really tedious and I’m not very patient. Or I’m not that kind of patient. I’m very patient when it comes to doing something that seems to have a purpose like learning something new or repeating something until I get it right. I don’t have the kind [...]

Things Three

I’m going to go with another week of covers, if only to entertain Mercygiver.

One Sabbath on Tesla coils.

Multitudes

I hate this and love it at the same time.

La Luna

One of these days I’ll have something more to say. Until then, here’s a video of Keith Moon:

The grunting is what sells it for me.

Make This Go Away

I heard this on the radio somewhere in Tennessee. It had been maybe a decade since I heard it last and now it won’t go away. I sometimes find myself tapping out that rhythm without thinking about it. Sometimes it morphs into Brave Combo’s version of Skokiaan, I think because the rhythm fits. [...]
