November 9, 2011

I have something I'd like to share with everybody. This is an email we received, this past Monday. Ginger hasn't seen it but I did share it with RJ.

I'm one of those ingrates who tunes in occasionally, gets a big kick out of what they hear, then doesn't bother to say thanks. So ... thank you very much, and congratulations on deftly mixing music of different genres and different decades and different degrees of prominence. Jerry Butler's "Sail On" hardly is prominent anymore, but you played it a half hour or so ago and it fit just perfectly. Ditto the relatively new tunes you played by Sharon Jones and Amy Winehouse. And I'll bet that any minute now you'll drop in something by the Del Chords, the Intentions or the Emperors. Keep the good stuff coming!

Now I have to tell y'all, this type note makes everything we do, all the hours picking songs, levelling the volumes and as Ginger will testify all the time it takes to put a show together, worthwhile.

In this, FNST's birthday month, we really are "damn proud" of what we've managed to build over the past five years.

Thank you again for being part of the FNST family.
