I'll be on a conference call at 10, so enjoy yerselves, kids.  And I'll be away from the radio the rest of the week, so I suppose all the sets will be spectacular in my absence...

I like the jangle pop of song #3 (or is it 4 already?) I don't recognize them, but they're in the style of Trashcan Sinatras.

ETA: Hey, I was right! It's called "Obscurity Knocks", apparently.

That and the Trashcan Sinatras might be the bustouts of the day. Hearing Faith No More, Epic now.

Also, heard the obligatory Kathy Bates "Mr. Man" clip from Misery. Another that seems to show up every time we hit this year.
Let's get right to it.
