Last night’s show kicked off with some brand new Vic Ruggiero, as well as brand new Big D and The Kids Table.  Big D got a special apology from this host, right off the bat- I was under the mistaken impression that they were simply a cover band.  It turns out they’re much better than that.   Hepcat’s Earthquake and Fire went out to the people of LA.  I gave you a taste of some spaghetti western-style ska before dropping some seriously skankable Brenda Lee and other country flavored tunes.  Shortly before I fell asleep on the sound board, I put a long set of deep ska-jazz into motion, featuring Royal Roost, Da Whole Thing and The Drastics.  I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did.

If you missed it, you can stream this episode from KDHX.org for the next two weeks.
