Best and Worst Part of Being a DJ at WBRU?
Best: Hey, you know that band you really like that you’ve been listening to obsessively for years? Yeah, they’re upstairs. Wanna hang out?
Worst: When nobody calls in and gives positive feedback to songs I’m really jazzed about
What Do You Think About Right Before You Go On-Air?
Holy crap, I suddenly need to sneeze
If You Could Interview One Artist, Who Would it Be and What Would You Say?
I’d interview Banksy. Who is Banksy? The world will never know – but it’d be cool to share a pizza or something.
What is the Craziest Call You’ve Ever Had?
Some guy called in at like 1 a.m. and asked me to play Ke$ha. I was like dude, no. You crazy.
You asked about Cold War Kids the other day. I sent an email but not direct, so because you want to know positive feedback, I’m letting you know that I LOVED that you played ‘em and really want to hear more of them on BRU. I only listen during my commute, but am liking the morning show you’ve got going.
I listen to KEXP out of Seattle at work pretty regularly, for their morning show…love when they do themes. I know they have way more flexibility then you guys do, but would like to hear less of the repeat rotation and more mix of new artists and old school.
Thanks for making my ride bare-able, and if you can cut down any o the lame commercials go for it!!
