marathon this year. From Friday evening at 6 till 9am Monday morning.
You'll hear nothing but the best of The Indie Shop. 66 hours of music bliss!
As we write this we're gathering over 400 songs, interview bits, and other
classic moments that have made the show special.
even if only my mother things so;)
Check back soon for a complete list of songs.
Until than......live programming will include
new music from Bjork, Interpol, The Music, The Thrills,
The Mooney Suzuki, Elliott Smith, The Delgados...
....among so many others

Back tonight with lots of new music. Both Spearmint and
Louis Eliot (formerly of Rialto) released new cds this week,
both of which we have. In fact, we may even be giving a copy
of the Spearmint cd to one lucky listener....also have new Interpol,
Libertines, Ken Stringfellow, Saybia, Morrissey and more.
Among the new releases, or at one that's pending...Seems
William Shatner has decided to get into the horror genre. Listen
for his cover of Pulp's 'Common People'......
Yes, be scared.....be very scared.

250 and counting.......
This coming week we celebrate a special moment in the show's history.....
Show # 250!!!!!! Hard to believe we've come this far, and ALL thanks to the
amazing people who have supported the show in one way or another.
I can say there is sincere gratitude here..
So that in mind, we'll be broadcasting one of the very first Indie Shop's.
on Tuesday, July 6 you'll be able to hear what we sounded like when it all
started.
It's kinda scary actually................
The Veils....overboard?
If you had a chance to listen in last week you would have heard
us play The Veils' debut The Runaway Found in its entirety. Simply
can't say enough about this band, their grandeur and majesty....
and all from a debut. Having had the chance to listen to it several
times recently, I've been dismayed by the lack of recognition
for such an amazing release....thus we decided to bring it to you as
such, so that those who might have missed it can enjoy.

It was a great pleasure having Michelle in as guest dj last week.
Sadly her web site lost it's host earlier in the day. While she's
still frantically searching for a solution, rest assured she'll be
up soon. Keep checking back at http://www.boltofblue.net/michelle.
In the meantime we're half way through the year and back with
live programming. Listen in for new music from Belle & Sebastians'
new single, Radio 4, Mull Historical Society, Old 97's, The Open,
The Polyphonic Spree.
To top it all off will be a few thoughts on our favorite album thus far....
