Awesome, Matt! One of your better sets. Joy Division, PIL, Sisters of Mercy, Fields of the Nephilim, This Mortal Coil, And One–especial favs. Loved hearing the always delightful Soft Cell “Memorabilia”. And a cover of “Warm Leatherette”?! Nice. Strong finish with Danse Society and Bauhaus. Glad to see Numan and Tubeway Army getting recognition, too. Will tune in Wednesday night 6PM Pacific for interview. How ’bout Fad Gadget “Lady Shave” for next week? And some 45 Grave? (Preferably obscure.) Keep up the good work!
