first post...

this is probably the biggest case of procrastination i've ever had. so i've got this 3000 word essay to write, as well as a couple of album reviews, so i decided to make a blog for guitar media. not sure whether it's a particulary productive thing to be doing but i do intend to update it weekly with playlists and other useful stuff. i haven't told my co-host timmy dodgers yet but i'm planning on dragging him into the updating as well. hopefully it works well - then the 3 people that listen to the show can come and post comments here about stuff as well.

by the way, rdu has a new website up. it looks real nice so go have a look.
