So people are listening...

I couldn't help it. Since reigniting this old flame, I was curious as to where and how some of you were listening in. I'm assuming many of you are hearing the show over the weekend, or have subscribed to robinhoodradio's podcast feed. It's there where you can find not just this program, but Keith Munro's wonderful 'Nothin But the Blues, plus astrologer Jill Goodman's Daily Planets with co-host Sally Spillane, Aquarian Nation Radio and RadioOpticon with Jeremy Sterritt.

I'm sure more will come down the feed in the coming months, but I just wanted to take a moment thank those who have subscribed on this end. It's a small number, but growing steadily. In the meantime, work on number 12 is underway and will be heard over the weekend.

E-mails are welcome. Thanks for listening.

Bohemia After Dark Premieres Tonight

It may only be an hour, but I feel good.

The first Bohemia After Dark since 2001 airs tonight at 9pm ET on



Hope you can tune in online. I'll post the playlist this evening.

New shows on the way

With Robin Hood Radio on the way, I'm getting ready to resume 'Bohemia After Dark,' with records from a while back, coupled with some more recent releases. Once the station's up and running after May 1st, then this site will hopefully look a little better.

Till then...

The Next Wave Starts in May

I recently posted on Music Humor and Words that:

Someone's "Taking Back the Airwaves..."

Well, not in the strictest sense. Pretty soon, some voices from a station that once occupied a nice Victorian house on a main drive somewhere will be heard from again...

Look to here beginning around May 1st.

A Bit O' Exposition

Bohemia After Dark on WKZE

It's been a while since I made any reflections on my past. Many decisions I've made over the years have benefitted me in one form or another. Many others have only dragged me down a just a bit. Of all the decisions I have made in recent years, giving up a passion was a tough one at the time, and it's only after not engaging it that passion once again over the last few years that I've regretted it.

Taking inspiration from broadcasters such as WFMT's Rich Warren, KCRW's Nic Harcourt and WNYC's David Garland and John Schaefer among others; Bohemia After Dark came on the air at WKZE in November 1997 until November 2001.

During those four years, listeners were treated to a diverse mix of sounds that were spoken, sung, played and realized. From the latest singer/songwriters and instrumentalists to poets, dramatists and performance artists; I did my best to keep it's eclectic programming current, alongside opportunities to go back and forth in time; from last month, last year or last century, or the centuries before that.

With so many choices for your ears out there, I was happy to receive the response from listeners who found the show, liked what they heard, and came back to it again and again over the years. For those who missed it while it was originally on the air, here's a brief montage I compiled in 1999, including an intro by Steve Utterback, host of 'Sunday Session':

Though I'm not doing what I enjoy anymore, I'll always keep my ears open for the best sounds out there. I still love to share.

What Started in November 1997...

and ended in November 2001 will be coming online in some form soon.

Fans of the show from WKZE hopefully won't be dissappointed.
