Well, I met with a guy from the new radio station in my city last night. I applied to host a weekly, IDM radio show (the station is not on the air yet, probably in November). I got to go see the studio location (which is awesome) and I got to go out and see his studio (he does video art)... fuckin amazing place he's
got. He lives in an old bank.. he's got a vault and everything. his place in UNREAL.
Anyhow, he gave me a copy of the full version of the automation software thats going to be used, introduced me to people as 'the guy that's going to be doing the idm show', so i guess that's a sure thing. I hooked him up with everything off my Archos MP3 player, he said he wants to use that combined with his 100 gig collection as the stations regular rotation stuff.. then he made fun of my The Smiths albums hehe..
So yeah, I was leaving and he started talking to me about jobs. he asked if i was looking for anything in town, (right now I work 60 miles out of town as the complaint department of a tax software company). so anyways, he asked me if i would be interested in being Station Manager for the place! It's the only paying position available out there, as it is a community radio station, being run by volunteers. I would be runnig the show... callin the shots even. The salary is less than what I make now. But i do get benefits like full medical coverage. He also said there is plenty of pportunity for me to make more money for myself through fundraisers.
He said the deadline for applicants is over and there are 4 people in the running now. He doesn't really like any of them because they either have no radio experience, or lots of experience and are squares.. so. the final decision isn't entirely up to him, but he said to get him my resume ASAP and he'll make it nicer and submit it to the others.
fuck.
I took the day off to do a sweet resume.
wish me luck!

viel gluck! and may the airwaves be plagued with songs that will be given credit for "resurrecting the music industry from is numetal teeny bopper infested slumber".
i'm of course referring to what will be taught in music history class in 50 years.
