Faust loves WFMU even though they hate Sun Ra
My favorite freeform radio station, wfmu.org, is in the middle of their annual fundraising marathon. I made my pledge (RealAudio clip) during Ken’s show. Besides a warm fuzzy, I will soon be receiving tons of swag goodies as well as Ken’s DJ premium, Moptop Mashups. I also believe that my pledge inspired at least one other pledge (RealAudio clip).
I might have pledged more if Mike “The Overseer” Lupica hadn’t recently posted a film depicting the grisly destruction of Sun Ra’s The Solar Myth Approach, Vol. 1 (the LP no less) and proclaimed “We hate Sun Ra and we are not telling you why.” While saddened by this declaration of hate, I will endure and continue to broadcast messages of intergalactic peace and love on Sun Ra Radio, which can be heard (almost) every Saturday from 3:00—4:00pm (CST) on KWLC 1240AM. Some of those tracks will be resurrected this weekend and lovingly dedicated to Mr. Lupica.

Hey Faust,
I had no idea that KWLC can now be heard online. With the new Amaliablog, I'm slowly being sucked back in to the Luther Alumni Vortex.
Gosh, I thought I just had a conversation with someone named Faust who spoke somewhat disparaging about the blogosphere. Maybe I was too drunk on the power of having my own blog to really understand him...
