It is true when I say at some point in this program that we don't normally sound like this. So--first time visitors and listeners, be warned. Normally our transmissions are filled with "many moods, styles, and atmospheres," or whatever it is I say, "sonic trail mix" doing the work of the dreaded word "eclectic." Not that Billy Childish isn't up to the task, and not that we haven't devoted an entire program to him before, but don't come to Bombast looking for reliable "garage rock" or whatever designation people apply to BC. Of course you're welcome to stay as long as you like.
This broadcast is the first from a very busy December in which we found ourselves abandoning novelty and playing a lot of familiar stuff, a good deal of which we'd played before. Oh well, it is "nostalgia season," as I like to say. Nevertheless, due to the brevity of the tunes here, I was resolved (or resigned) not to care about the raggedness of segues. But--maybe it is also miracle season!--some of them turned out quite well. Perhaps it is impossible for greatness not to get along with itself.
So much for "content"--w/r/t "technique," I've had better nights, though I suppose I should be grateful that this is the first time in over 400 episodes that I have referred to the program as "Bauhaus." "It's late for me in a lot of senses," I muse, and I think that is valid. Elsewhere, I wonder out loud if 16 is the age of consent "in English," before suggesting that maybe I should be put out of your misery and yanked off the air. Lady Catharsis is audibly exasperated with this train of thought, which is her way of having my back.
Thanks for listening!
