WIIT 88.9 FM

Show # 114 – “Do You Have Some Fried Chicken in Your Pocket?”

My daughter Lily’s friend likes to tell a story about when she visited the big city and a “hobo” asked her if she had some fried chicken in her pocket…a most sincere solicitation, if ever I’ve heard one. So this week, I’m playing tunes for all the fried-chicken eating hobos who listen to my show. That means I’ll be spinning melancholy from Marc Olsen, downtempo from LCD Soundsystem, something off the new Andrew Bird, and lots of psychedelic faves from the Short Man’s closet of broken dreams and unsatisfied ambitions. Plus, this is my last show before I go back to Beijing, so I guarantee a little of that Chinese punk – maybe Brain Failure? Joyside? Carsick Cars?

Join me this Friday at 1 pm (Chicago time) at 88.9 fm on the IIT main campus, and streaming LIVE at www.radio.iit.edu
