Subject: Vickie's playlist 118 (last live show-6 hour marathon)
Vickie here. Well, this was my last live show. Exactly 100 shows ago I went live (my first 17 shows were taped) and I was so scared that I almost quit. Now, I'm so used to being live that I'm going to miss it terribly. Even with all the mistakes, gaffes, inarticulateness, silliness and weirdness of live radio, there's something about it that's more intimate and warm, and I could get immediate feedback from listeners. Things will never be the same. This was a 6-hour marathon of requests and trying to cram as much music as I could into my last few hours in the studio. We had a party and in one room Chris showed videos while I was on the air in the other room. I'd always wanted to have a "Suspended In Gaffa" Video Party, because I have hours upon hours upon hours of videos by female artists, but it had never happened. We thought this was better than nothing, so we showed what we could. Everything from Kate Bush to Jane Siberry to Mary Coughlin to Diamanda Galas to The Innocence Mission to Victoria Williams to Throwing Muses to Trio Bulgarka and on & on & on. Most people wanted to see Kate & Jane so Chris spent most of his time cueing up their videos. I think most people were torn between seeing the videos and being in the other room or the the studio with me listening to the show. I got lots of "farewell" phone calls (Larry H. where were you?) and wouldn't you know it, I got 4 calls from people who'd just tuned in, had never heard the show before, and were sorry they didn't find out about the show before. One guy was especially heartbroken that he'd missed out for over two years, because his taste and my taste in music were dead-on alike. I tend to blame the local music papers and newspaper, because I'd been in touch with all of them, trying to get publicity for my show, but not one of them ever said one word about it in print. Hell, I don't get paid for the show, it's a volunteer effort, so it wasn't as if I wanted to make money from the publicity, I just wanted to spread the word about the music. Anyway, I had a great night and I cried (I knew I would) when I did the final sign-off. SIG will live on, but in a mutated form, so I couldn't help but be sad.
