XLR8 ID at 0032 and 0036 with the same type of music playing. Signal is a S6-7 and audio good. Playing The Police at 0037. If you are doing requests, how about Lou Reed? Thanks XLR8!

Clear but weak signal. Hey, you got any Swans in your library? Maybe something nice from "White Light."
0118 Signal gaining strength. Come on, sundown!
0121 XLR8 ID into "Marijuana, The Devil's Flower" by MR. Sunshine * ;D
0124 "Do It Again" by Shinichiro Yokota *
0129 "That's the Way It Goes" by Micatone *
0133 XLR8 ID into Swans "When She Breathes"  ;D  er, make that "Song For Dead Time." Still didn't have to shazam it, though!
    * shazamed
0139 "Aufstehn!" Seeed feat. Cee-Lo Green *
0143 "No More Mr. Nice Guy" Alice Cooper
0146 XLR8 ID into "The Mouth Don't Stop" by Fear. Now that's a blast from the past. I sold "More Beer" years ago (probably for more beer) and haven't heard anything off it since.
0149 old skool punk song, can't place this one, shazam isn't helping. But sounds good.
     If we're going this way, how about some Dils?
0051 XLR8 ID into "Bright Yellow Gun" Throwing Muses *
0055 Bo Diddly "She's Fine She's Mine" *
0058 Destroy All Monsters I think? (Yes! Confirmed by shazam, "Nobody Knows")
0201 XLR8 ID into UNID song. (just messed up my BFO, making matters harder). Seems to be called "Don't Go."
0209 XLR8 ID into Sonic Youth (can't remember the song title but it's on Sonic Nurse)
     fades starting to increase.
0213 Bikini Kill?
0215 Iggy! "The Passenger"
0220 XLR8 ID into "Don't Wanna Fight" Alabama Shakes *
0224 "My Way" Limp Bizkit *
0228 "Gin and Juice - Metal Cover" by Leo *
0232 "Jet Airliner" Paul Pena (not Steve Miller) *
    If it's cover song time, I was always fond of what Butthole Surfers did with "American Woman."
0237 XLR8 ID into unshazamable song
0243 XLR8 ID into "Slave of Fear" Stone Axe *
0248 "Fascist Pigs" The Nosebleeds * (nice one)
0250 signal just faded a bit, all I can hear are drums and a bassline
0254 signal still faded but strong enough for shazam to ID "Dust" by Parquet Courts *
0258 unid song, can hear drums bass and screaming vox but no guitar. Lyrics about acid rain falling.
0302 XLR8 ID into "War/Subvert" Zounds *
     reception pretty deteriorated by 0319, some peaks above noise floor.
 
Thanks for the show!!

I thought I heard a little Gil Scott-Heron in there just after 1 utc.  Nice strong signal.
