Transmission 5610

By the time this RFW Transmission is posted, I will have already undergone nasal surgery. Knowing I would not be in show-shape so soon after the procedure, I produced a proboscis themed show in advance to alleviate my pre-operation anxiety. This group of musicians is nothing to sneeze at - Johnny Young, Allen Orange, Savoy Brown, Richard Thompson, The Soft Machine, Rats, The Sights, Martin Mull, N.E.R.D., Flying Lotus, Vampire Rodents and Antediluvian Rocking Horse. Can you smell where I'm comin' from?

Transmission 5410

He was the eggman, a Quarryman, the dreamweaver, a Beatle, a reborn husband and father and the reluctant hero of  generations. He was killed while starting over - but he never did fade away. He would have been 70 years old today. Our walrus set includes the interview that set the record straight. Put your arms in the air for John Lennon and say goo goo ga joob!
