SESAME STREET BANDAIDS 08/23/10

OKAY I KNOW THIS REQUEST + SONG ARE FOR OUR FINAL SHOW OR WHATEVER BUT WE ACTUALLY AIN'T DONE THIS WEEK WE GOT LIKE ONE OR TWO MORE SHOWS LEFT. NOT SURE HOW MANY BUT WE STRONG.

WMUA 91.1FM 5:30-8PM EST

As our favorite Monday radio programming ends, please do not despair. We all know things are only going to get better. I have mad faith in DJ Beer With Dinner & DJ Darmok and the art they will continue to give the Internet for many moons to come.

I'm going to send Sesame Street Bandaids off with Living Legends' "Nothing Less". This song hit me one night a couple years ago when I was stoned in my friend's car parked outside my parents house, staring down the long lawn into my father's study, illuminated by a series of strategically placed pot lights- which for those of you who haven't gone through multiple remodels, that isn't for growing weed, okay they're like those circular lights that are like IN the ceiling, you feel me?

OKAY DAMN, I digress!

Anywayyy, I'm sitting stoned in this Civic along my sidewalk, looking in at my father, in his study & his desk covered in business & his walls crusted with taxidermy & his face, although I could not see it, I knew his face was worn & tired from his high stress suburban life. And that's when I was like, "IT'S TIME 2 GO!" Six months later, I was in Los Angeles and two years later, here I am now.

For all your next chapters,
I send you my warmest regards & best of luck.

RIP SSB <3
