Notes from the hosts:
After kicking it live tag-team style on old school jams all summer long, unlocking the funk at spots like Fuse, Milltown, and Lucky #7 (aka The End Unit), DJ's Old-Time Granny and Dyn-O-Mite finally made it behind the decks at WCOM. We sent the overheated summer of '10 out in style on the first night of Labor Day weekend.
Lots of great DJs have come and gone in this town over the years (not to mention all the ones still in the house). But it's safe to say that the hours from 10-midnight on that Friday were among the funkiest to ever hit the airwaves around here!
Some listeners from far-away spots like H-town (Henderson, NC), FLA, and Hot-lanta tuned in on our live online worldwide stream after getting the SOUL lowdown via Facebook. DJ Tongue called in AND e-mailed us his funk-da-fied requests. That's a loyal listener right there.
And we hooked up the vintage Lost City boombox and a rotating disco light just inside the station's barbed wire fence to create the bare bones edition of Club Taqueria, the first step towards realizing SOUL Productions' velvet rope parking lot dreams! Even with a low-rent soundsystem and no frills ambience, some funk-lovin' late night revelers were spotted getting their boogie on. It was a party at the taco truck, with good tunes and eats all around.
Aside from the missing 40 minutes of this show getting LOST FOREVER in an inaugural technical f-up, everything flowed like butter. SOUL #1 was mad fun!
