S6 with music (sounds like it could be soundtrack from movie) @ 2225.
2230 - band going long, barely audible now
2238 - fading back up a little, hearing "I'm On Crack" by The Dickies.  Then faded again.

Signal is right at the noise floor here at 2132 UTC Can make out some talk and now music at 2133 UTC. Maybe the talk is part of the song?
Signal is not strong enough here for Shazam to lock onto...
2240 UTC "Vivisection"-The Southern Death Cult (per Shazam  ;D)
2243 UTC "Trouble If You Hide"-The Freeze (per Shazam)
(Has that XLR8 feel to it....  ??? )  ;)
2247 UTC "Go For Soda"-Kim Mitchell
2249 UTC OM with "XLR8"
2310 UTC "Beds Are Burning"-Midnight Oil (Signal solidly above the noise now!)
2313 UTC OM with a whispered "X-L-R-8" and then a loud "accelerate", into some Ozzy
2320 UTC Deep fade into the noise from whence it has not returned  :(

2300 Signal below the noise floor. Please stay on for a few hours so I can get a chance to properly hear you!  ;D
2301 possible XLR8 ID
2309 signal gaining strength, hard rock tune. Dealing with static crashes from Nebraska thunderstorm here.
2312 OM XLR8 ID. Signal getting better still. "Crazy Train" Ozzy, possibly live version?
2318 XLR8 ID into live version of "Iron Man," probably from Speak Of The Devil, maybe some live Sabbath. Medley version into "Paranoid" at 2321
2323 new song
2327 XLR8 ID into new song, kinda sounds like Warren Zevon. Signal is below the noise floor again so it's hard to tell
2331 new tune
2335 new tune, signal trying to make a comeback
2336 XLR8 ID into something
2338 The Clash "Magnificent Seven" from The Tomorrow Show - great version of this song!
        signal still subject to deep fades and never really rising above the noise floor, but at least reaching that level
2345 faded away
0000 hearing snippets of music in the murk

Thanks for the show!
