Unfortunately, the interview and live performance by the Lonesome Mississippi Drifters this Thursday has been cancelled due to another sports pre-emption. For the second week in a row, The Fleshy Fresh will not air. Hopefull we will return next week. We will keep you posted.
The Lonesome Mississippi Drifters will be stopping by the studio this Thursday to play some songs and talk about their music. Tune in between 6 and 8 p.m. on the 28th to catch the live performance and interview. Here is some Drifters stuff to check out in the meantime:
Ready for the last semester of the longest running and best pop show on WTBU? Good, cause we've got a lot planned already. The good news is that The Fleshy Fresh will still be on from 6-8 every Thursday! No new time slot for us...why fix what ain't broken?
Tonight we're featuring new music from Drew Danburry, Panic! At the Disco, Sondre Lerche, and all the usual banter between myself and Mr. Critical Carlos.
Also, guess the Guilty Pleasure for this week by commenting on this post and win a song request that I guarantee we will play for you.
Let us know you're listening and you'll get a shout out at the end of the show!

When the Fleshy Fresh got started in the beginning months of 2007 it was on a 12-1 a.m. time slot on Sunday mornings. It wasn't even a full 2 hours. The show has seen a lot of changes since its modest beginnings: from a single DJ, to new DJs and interns, to fewer DJs, and new structure. I'm confident now that the Fleshy Fresh is the best it has ever been; I just can't believe that it's coming to the end.
Thank you to everyone who voted for The Fleshy Fresh and helped us win Best Pop Show on WTBU! We're heading into the final semester of the show, making the Fleshy Fresh the longest running show on WTBU. But not before we wrap things up from this semester.
Everybody loved Taking Back Sunday's Tell All Your Friends, but when they lost two band members and released Where You Want to Be, their fand base was troubled. Message boards were slammed with skepticism about the band's future--even before the record was released. Now, two albums later, the band is still going strong with an avid fan base. However, many people still believe that Tell All Your Friends is the best Taking Back Sunday record of all time.
Taking Back Sunday stands as one example of a band that had it made when they got started, but lost their momentum as their career started up. With that, we introduce this week's theme: "Their First Album Was So Much Better."
So tune in tonight at 6 p.m. (EST) on http://www.wtburadio.org/ to follow along as we run through some other bands that started great and then lost it.

Also, here is the new music video for Paramore's "Ignorance." I don't think this band can do anything wrong.
The very last show of the Spring 2009 semester is airing today on www.wtburadio.org.
Tune in at 4 p.m. to hear our re-cap of the semester. We'll talk about our guests, our unsigned artists, and whatever else we feel like.
The blog will still be up and updated frequently over the summer. So don't go anywhere.

Thank you to our musical guest on Monday, Allison Francis! We did record the performance so you'll be able to hear it soon.
So, as some of you may know, I am the Assistant General Manager of WTBU, the glorious radio station on which the Fleshy Fresh airs. One of my responsibilities as the Ass GM (as I like to call myself) is to be the bright and shining face of the station, a job I love very much (not really). So, when the Community Service Center came to us, as they do every year, looking for us to provide them with dates to be auctioned off, I was, naturally, one of the people chosen to sell my soul for a few bucks.
Here's a picture of me and my good friend Mike Carlos, who will also be whoring it up for charity:
Mike and I are not the only ones, however! If you don't want to pay five bucks for a date with me or Mike (though, I don't know how you could want someone else after seeing the above picture), then here is the list of everyone being auctioned off:
COM Dean - Dean Berkovitz
Brian Fadem (the hot dog--as in, the hot dog and jesus)
Joseph Alexander Rudolph Gerber III
Ross Lichtenberg
Rob Uslan
Michael Carlos
Jen Brown
Katie Latta
Katie Curtin
Vanessa Escobar
Robina Moyer
Ashley Lagas
Sam Kuttner
Zach Kohn
Dan McDade
Noah Wager
Jess Tannhauser
Anne Hetherington
Mark Foelster
If you don't know who a lot of these people are, facebook stalk them or something. You could go all out and have a reconnaissance thing going on and then come to the Date Auction all prepared, knowing exactly whose pants you want to get into. Just a thought.
Here are the details:
This Thursday, March 26th
7:30 p.m.
Conference Auditorium (2nd Floor of the GSU).
Bring a buck or two.
If you want to join the facebook event, click here.
Unfortunately, Allison Francis will not be joining us tomorrow on The Fleshy Fresh. However, she will grace us with her presence next Monday, March 30th.
We still have a good show lined up for you tomorrow. Until then, check out this eerie song by Sufjan Stevens about a serial killer in Illinois.
It has been two weeks since The Fleshy Fresh has aired. Last week was spring break and the week before that BU had a snow day; hence, everything was shut down, even programming at WTBU.
Nowadays, people have the attention span of a goldfish, so I'm sure that in just two weeks you've forgotten about us. But we haven't forgotten about you.
Tomorrow we return. Tomorrow we start the turn around 3rd base, we start the final boarding call, we turn the key as we power our way through the end of the semester and this school year. So don't miss it.
Mondays, 4-6 p.m.

Well, it took me forever, but I finally got this video up.
A few weeks ago, the lovely Katie Uva came and paid us a visit on the Fleshy Fresh. She played three songs for us. In this video are two of those songs and some annoying banter on my part in the middle. Enjoy!

A few weeks have passed since our last update. That is because our show last week was pre-empted for a sports broadcast. Do not fear, though! The Fleshy Fresh will continue as scheduled this Monday at 4 p.m EST (www.wtburadio.org).
The show has undergone a slight change. Unfortunately, Jen Brown will no longer be a main DJ on the show because of other commitments. We will miss her but she will stop by from time to time, I'm sure. Rather than try to permanently replace her presence, each week we will be graced with the presence of a guest DJ from another of WTBU's excellent crop of shows.
So, without further ado, here is this Mondays' guest: Mike Carlos from the shows "No Eyebrows, No Mercy" and "Punkie Wunkies." Check out his blog here.
I'm working hard to get a musical guest each week. Any suggestions, let me know in the comments.
We'll see you soon.
