While The City Sleeps
KAFM Grand Junction, 9pm - 12am
DJ Zero + MC 900 Ft. Jesus
This is my first time seeing the sun rise from the studio. There’s been plenty of sunsets, and plenty of times when I was on the air at the time but in a windowless studio.
Since I was guest host The Orbit Lounge and this was not The Lacking Organization, there was more selection and sequencing going on than usual, with the end result being a good hill climb from warm sleepiness to aerobic panic. Thanks to Lisa from Florida and Geoffrey from France for checking in!
