Plastic Magic May 15th, 2011 Podcast

Hey there friends and neighbors. Looks like the podcast worked out all right and this is what you have to look forward to: THE KEEF HARTLEY BAND, SANDY HURVITZ, MOTHER EARTH, BLUE AQUARIUS, U.S. APPLE CORPS, BLACK OAK ARKANSAS, CHEECH AND CHONG, RARE EARTH, BLUES MAGOOS, BLACK PEARL, MASHMAKHAN, DAVID PEEL AND THE LOWER EAST SIDE and much more! Co-hosted with your Uncle Butch. This show sort of loosely put around the growing paranoia of the 2012 prophecies, that was sort of inspired from listening to shortwave radio over the weekend. If it sounds like we are making fun, please forgive. I know very well the guys we are talking about take this shit very seriously. OK...that said I present to you: The battle of the shortwave profits podcast 

no mother's day podcast

Unfortunately the podcast of the Plastic Magic mother's day special featuring the music of Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention that aired last sunday May 8th, 2011 on both KXUA and WBCQ did not survive.... although my wife made an over the air copy on high bias cassette tape on the home stereo so ya never know it could surface someday (but probably not)........better luck next time.....

A Special Mothers Day surprise on Plastic Magic

Happy Mothers Day to all you mothers! Tonight on the Plastic Magic rock and roll radio program we (am expecting Butch) will be playing at least 2 hours of Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention.
