As I have had the recent bad habit of forgetting to name all the tracks I play on-air, tonight's playlist will be posted shortly.

If you would like to hear something on air, leave a comment or send me an email at beautyandthebeat.cfrc (at) gmail.com !

Are you along for the ride?

A million and one apologies

I missed my own show.
Yeah, I know, I'm pretty horrible.

So no playlist for June 20th, 2006.

I promise you something great for next week though... a THEMED SHOW! Oh!

Upon listening to myself on the archives...

...I need to stop with the "um"s and the "tsk"s.
Like, seriously. It's annoying.

Just goes to show how difficult it is for me to verbalize.
So I gotta naturalize through practice.
