just to let you know…..The Black Lillies show is all set to go on the cozy patio of The Station restaurant and cultural mecca, downtown Cedarville, California.  you wanna be a part of it?  tickets at zekescandy.com.  doors open at 630 for eatin, drinkin, and socializin.  The Lillies get it going at 8-ish.  and yes, they are a VERY good band.  the weather–cool n cloudy.  a two to three layer night.  but it should be ok.

also…..sample hour from monday on the morning Bucket goes like this here…..

it’s very nice, how the cottons have built this nice bond with one of THE hot new bands out of nashville in recent years, The Black Lillies.  last year, the BLs slayed us in VC with a killer show at Piper’s Opry House, and the next night put on a heckuva party in Fort Bidwell, California, the northernmost town of Surprise Valley, just below the Oregon border.  so anyway, it’s super cool to let you know that the Lillies are on their way back to SV……..with a gig scheduled at the nice little tapas bar/cafe called The Station, right in the middle of beautiful downtown Cedarville.  this fabulously fandango little tango is gonna happen on Wednesday night May 23rd.  please check this space and the waves of Jive Radio for ticket info.  it’s gonna be a real good time…..this is very safe to say!

carly simon–nobody does it better

john cale–dumbass rock n roll

AND AS ALWAYS, YOU GET ALL THESE TUNES WITHOUT BEING ASSAILED BY COMMERCIALS AND CONTESTS AND OTHER SUCH IRRITANTS.  WE REMIND YOU……EVERY HOUR OF JIVE RADIO IS LITERALLY ABOUT 57 MINUTES OF MUSIC.  WE ARE AS PURE AS IT GETS.
