Playlist, 2/7

Thanks to everyone who tuned in and called in today, except for the guy who offered the loaded compliment of "Your show's a lot better now!  You just seem to have more self-confidence than you did last semester."  Call me hypersensitive, but I've been doing this show for two years now, and self-confidence is not the issue.  It bites to get feedback like that.  You start looking back at the entirety of your radio history and doubting whether it's been any good.  I can handle people telling me they don't like the music I play, or they don't like my talk breaks, or hell, even that they don't like me, but I don't like strangers making judgments about my self-esteem.  Lay off.

That aside, I had some excellent requests, spoke to some really nice people, and discovered that more people are into the movie Jumper than I had imagined.  Or possibly, more people are into free stuff than I had imagined.

So yay, more free stuff below!  But I will say, one final time, if you buy any album this month, let it be Black Mountain's In the Future.  I got my ticket Wednesday.  See you there?
