Well it took a little time to find it’s way to the internet, but The Void Union‘s live session and interview are now up on the KDHX page.  If you haven’t been hipped to the VU yet, they are a traditional-style side project for members of several top ska bands like Westbound Train, Satori and The Toasters.

We had a short talk between songs, but the guys had to get moving to their gig at the amazingly comfortable Gramophone.  However, they found time to sneek in one extra song for the kiddies listening to Grandfather Paul Stark’s Musical Merry-Go-Round-  Monkey Ska!

Please Enjoy.

I was out of town for this last episode, but I was in full control, having pre-recorded the entire thing ahead of time.  Big ups to Brother Dan from The Smoking Lounge for pushing all the buttons when they needed pushing.

I put less thought towards the selection this week as well, but I’m very happy with the way it turned out.  Essentially, I went through my library and pulled out a bunch of my most played tracks, along with a few newer sides that I like.  I ended up with more instrumentals than usual and a few unplanned themes reveled themselves as the show progressed.

As always the episode is online for two weeks at STL’s Program Page at KDHX.org
