Dear Mark,
Part of the drama of radio is that there are people out
there who want to
direct what you are playing for them! They are unable to
just open their
hearts and let the music take them into the universe, so
they therefore want
to hear you play what THEY want you to play, it's a bit sad
really but a
fact nonetheless. I have some listeners who want me to play
only drum and
bass and others who do not want to hear ANY of that kind of
music. For Lee
Gordon to come down on you for what you played the other
night was lacking
in grace totally, you volunteer your time to give what you
can to the
cultural fabric of the listening area you reach. Please do
NOT let these
sorts of stupid comments upset you, it is impossible to
please all of the
folks all the time, much as we might want to always please
all of our
listeners. Over the years ( I have been doing my show for 17
years!) I have
reached out to people and taken them to new places musically
speaking
because they opened their hearts to the music and let it's
magic work for
them, they deleted the ego-negativity that invades them and
ceased to demand
and learned to accept and guess what ? They found that they
loved music they
thought they hated. This is a letter of support from me to
you and to any
other folks out there doing original programming and
bringing music that
would remain anonymous to the world at large!
Best regards,
Leslie Shill/The Power Of Sound/KAZU 90.3 FM/Pacific Grove.
