Prog Radio starting around 10PM EST. Playing tracks all longer than 6 minutes, most longer than 8. Prog rock for those who haven't got a life on Friday night.

Please note, this playlist is best on LOUD or you risk missing half of it. 4 hrs long. See you on the other side.

you're late!

Please, you can't Rush the Rock.

posted by Eideteker 09 December | 22:13

Yes, it's over 20 min in, and yes, we just started the SECOND TRACK. It's insanity, I tell you (though that was the longest one for the night, but we do have a few 13 min tracks later on).

I feel like I should be playing Dungeons & Dragons. I'll be taking things a little more modern in a bit, if you're scared off right now.

posted by Eideteker 09 December | 22:41

Harder stuff for about 1/2 hr, then into a mix of mellower rock tunes.

It can't handle all the Ös and ÿs I'm throwing at it. HAH! Suck it down. SUCK IT DOWN!

That last one was for my dad (Mask of the Great Deceiver). RIP, Dad.

Damn, I wish I was home so I could listen. (And, y'know, have a drink & smooch the missus & such.) Very cool to see "Astronomy" on the playlist.

posted by bmarkey 10 December | 00:05

I will totally rebroadcast this list, anytime, anywhere. I love listening to all these songs together (I never have!) and other people listening in is just a bonus! I'll either do it this weekend or next week after my Monday exam (possibly Tuesday?) or both, as I think I'm allowed up to 3 (2?) rebroadcasts in a 2 week period. Meanwhile I'm thinking up some good tracks for another playlist.

Artist info available on IRC, as always, for anyone listening in but not chatting.

<Eideteker> Tubeway Army/Replicas is an album NO ONE should be without

Holy shit, this is the single greatest playlist ever assembled. I can't wait till it's done and I can post it.

Please excuse me, I meant no harm in being born.

TARKUS! Holy crap. *dies laughing*

Sorry I missed that. I could have used a hit of 1975.

Eideteker, what album was the Critters Buggin song from? They're about to make a sale. :)

This hidden track was recorded one month before 9/11.

posted by Eideteker 10 December | 04:01

Please do. I'm never up before... well, shit, probably 10 AM Pacific. Up = out of bed, not actually functioning. I'm counting on you.
