Two hours of Green Day radio 11/7/11

Wow. I hate to join a forum with a shameless plug, but here I am typing this.

My name is Brian Johnston, and I host "Brian's Untitled Radio Program" (the BURP) on WXOU 88.3 FM "The Grizz" in Oakland University, Auburn Hills MI. On Monday November 7 at 3PM Eastern time, I'm dedicating the entire hour to Green Day and related bands. I've just been informed by Luke Diamond Philips that he will be dedicating his show "Frampton's Watermelon" to everybody's favorite boys from Berkeley as well.

Please note that WXOU is a nonprofit college radio station. It has no commercial advertisements and I'm a volunteer DJ. Neither Luke or myself are profiting monetarily by this. In the interest of honesty, we're both just very big "Green Day dorks." Well, that and our fragile egos weep when we look at the "who's listening online" counter and we only see single digits.

We'd love to field requests during the two-hour span as well. If you want to hear anything Green Day-related, we'll try to play it.

You can listen live at http://www.wxou.org/listen/ and tweet @wxou during the show to request songs. You can also call (248) 370-4274 to request over the phone, but remember to wait until Monday at 3 Eastern.

Alright, you look legit so it's cool. Welcome to the forum, why don't you stay awhile. I've seen people do fairly successful internet radio based on way less active forums, you could probably get triple digits if you integrate yourself here and all that, we always welcome contributors.

Sweet!

And I agree, you should stay. We don't bite. :)

Posted

Hm. I wonder if a Misfits forum poster would say, "we bite."

Posted

So this is at 3pm EST? We can put an announcement up for it.

Posted

Yeah. We're just a little over two hours from the show. You can go to http://www.wxou.org/ and click the "listen" link to tune in. Both my show (3-4) and Luke's show (4-5) will be Green Day-related.

This is pretty sweet. I have some errands to run, but hopefully I can make it back in time to catch the shows. I'm good with radio shows dedicated to all things Green Day. They're the most distracting of all the things.

Posted

I've got a post ready to go up just before the show starts, so hopefully will bring a few listeners. I'll be tuning in!

Posted

This is cool, I'll listen in!

Posted

I'm listening to it :)

Posted

I'm listening a bit while on lunch not bad especially when pedestrian is played

I was only half-listening at this moment but did he just say Billie's a vegetarian? (Or was he talking about someone's wife?)

Posted

Kudos for playing The Pedestrian!

That's what I thought he said I didn't quite get it completely

That's what he said. I'm not sure it's 100% true though...conflicting reports over the years.

I'm listening from Norway! This is awesome!

blink and Sum would do good in between GD songs as well! =D

Omg, I'm so happy this happened tonight!

Posted

I'm really loving this 2 hour GD thing :D I haven't had a favorite Green Day memory other than hearing 21 Guns and KYE for the first time :) those two songs are what got me into GD so to say at this point that it's not my favorite memory then idk what would be lol.

Posted

This is great! :D

Can anyone record the rest so we can put it up after?

Posted

Just tuned in. Pretty pleased to start off with Hammer of the Gods

Posted

Mine keeps on having to 'rebuffer' but the bits I'm hearing are really good :)

Good one ye for playing the Network :D

I think ye should play "It's Fuck Time" too though unless you already have and I missed it :ermm:

Posted

You guys rock too! <3

Thank you for this awesome 2 hour block of Green Day.

Posted

When it's time.. Here comes the tears! Oh, my poor manhood! :c
