I'm not the Captain
This one went off about 0136 or so on WBCQ 7.415 MHz, following Brad's first ever RNI Grits Radio Show. This is our first 90 minute show. Except for the intro, we spent no time at all prepping for this. Our live phone patch aircheck to WBCQ was excellent from when Brad went on at 0000 UTC until about 30 minutes into our Lumpy part, when the shortwave signal took a dive and went long. StaticJunkie reported we were being heard in the UK pretty good for the first 2 hours or so. Despite the earlier jamba, and the inability to take live fone calls, this was a lot of fun. We greatly enjoy filling in for John Lightning and RNI.
This setlist is a little bit out of order and is incomplete. I'll get around shortly to cleaning it up. -- Lw

Zappa Head
Back before we did a show for WBCQ, I did a handful of shows for Dr. Becker's FM station in Kiowa that featured Zappa's material. Four years later we've come full circle. Here's a mix that we pushed forth onto the airwaves at 2200 UTC on Saturday, March 15, 2008, on WBCQ 7.415 and 5.110 MHz.
After hours, we discovered that Brad has a better sounding and more complete soundboard recording of the Fillmore West concert where our feature "Call Any Vegetable" originated from. It is one of my all time favorite Zappa shows, and the original "tape that Jane used to use to annoy the neighbors." When we get a copy of Brad's tape we'll post it here for you, and maybe we'll air it on Area 51 someday soon.
