Tue, 26 September 2006 This week's show has some really great songs. We've always got something good going on each week here in the downtown New York venues, but there's just something about the songs I have for you this week, so make sure you click the link below and check out the show. Don't forget that you can always subscribe at www.podcastalley.com and itunes. Here's what I've got for you... Wednesday, September 27: Check out the power pop of Auto Interiors (www.myspace.com/autointeriors) at Lit Lounge. They'll be here from the Boston area. Thursday, September 28: Mobius Band (www.mobiusband.com, www.myspace.com/mobiusband) take the stage at Mercury Lounge. They have a real cool sound that mixes some electronic into their guitars and drums, but it doesn't sound like they're trying too hard or following a trend. They do it so well that it just sounds cool. Thursday, September 28: If you're up for some straight up rock with tons of energy, head straight for Bowery Ballroom and see Be Your Own Pet (www.beyourownpet.net, www.myspace.com/beyourownpetmusic). I saw them at the Siren Festival a couple of years ago, and they killed. Friday, September 29: Power piano pop brought to you by Mancino (www.mancinomusic.com, www.myspace.com/mancino) at The Delancey. I hear that if you're a Pavement fan, then you'll like these guys. Saturday, September 30: The Thin Lines (www.thefinelinesmusic.com, www.myspace.com/thefinelines) play at Arlene's Grocery. The song I have for you here has a fast post punk beat, pretty cool. Drop me (Chad) a line at alphabetcityradio@gmail.com.

Tue, 19 September 2006 I start off this week's episode with the amazing guitar work of Swati (www.swatilive.com), who I featured on Show 21. I saw her a couple of weeks ago at the Medusa Festival at CBGB, and she played a tremendous set. The song I have for you is from her CD. Go to her Web site and grab a copy NOW! Top to bottom, it's a great piece of work, and a nice example of the talent we have here. Wednesday, September 20: The Room (www.myspace.com/roomtheband) takes the stage at Club Midway upon their return from their tour in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. If you're a fan of Modest Mouse, I think you'll dig the song I have for you. Thursday, September 21: Check out The Comas (www.thecomas.com, www.myspace.com/thecomas) at the Mercury Lounge, some powerful guitar-driven music. Friday, September 22: Boy/Girl (www.pleasehate.us, www.myspace.com/pleasehateus) play Sin-e. They have a spastic style of music, which I really dig if it's done right, and it's done right here. Saturday, September 23: Stink Mitt (www.stinkmitt.com, www.myspace.com/stinkmitt) come in from Canada to shake up Alphabet City Radio with their funky style of hip hop.
