The Broncos won!

It’s my birthday. Daughter and grand daughter in town from Jersey. Wife not doing well. I think I’ll take the day off. But before I shut down the Goat Den for the day I’ve got this week’s playlist, new music shares from Soundrabbit, Rob Drabkin and Masontown – and the video pick of the week, which features Megan Burtt from her appearance last year with the Colorado Symphony. Enjoy.

Oh, quick tease — How is Shovels & Rope connected to Colorado? You’ll have to listen to KUNC this week to find out.

The Colorado Sound S9 EP47 2015

It’s the time of year for family, friends, and parties. Not too much has gone on this week. If you haven’t done so already, make sure you vote for your favorites in the FAN POLL. I’m looking forward to sharing the best of the best from this year in our annual BEST OF show coming up in a couple of weeks. The POLL ends Dec 20.

One bit of news broke over the weekend. Veteran Irish Rock band the Indulgers lead singer/band leader Damien McCarron posted an end to their successful 17 year run.

THE COLORADO SOUND LIVE365

Besides the radio show, you can also stream the best of my collection anytime at The Colorado Sound Live365. We’re coming up on the third year that I’ve kept that sidebar going. The past few months have been sketchy to be honest. While the radio show enjoys the love of numerous stations statewide, the metrics on the online side have been slow to develop. A cry for listeners last week rose metrics to the best we’ve had in a few months – and reminded me that it takes constant promotion to make it real.

In order to help cover the costs of running the online station I went to ad supported for non subscribers, and ad-free for subscribers. Gotta thank one new subscriber this weekend.

I also learned that the order of songs is different depending on whether you’re a “free” listener (ad supported) or a subscription / VIP listener (non-ad).

Here’s an example from Monday (today) morning.

Ad supported three song set at 8:06AM
The Fray – Love Don’t Die
Elephant Revival – Birds And Stars
Leftover Salmon – Western Sky

VIP set at 8:07AM
Big Head Todd & The Monsters – Josephina
Yonder Mountain String Band – Criminal
Longest Day of the Year – Black Horse Canyon

These are the top ten songs you heard last week, through Saturday.

Edison – Be Someone
Fox St. – Somethin About You
John Oates – Stone Cold Love
Megan Burtt – Fast As I Go
The Motet – 123
Musketeer Gripweed – End of the Day
Nathaniel Rateliff – Nothing to Show For
OneRepublic – Counting Stars
P-Nuckle – The System
The String Cheese Incident – Outside and Inside

VIDEO PICK OF THE WEEK – BEST OF 2015
