Guest DJs 2013
with the negotiations completed and contracts all signed, we're happy to announce the recruitment of a fresh round of guest DJs. we're looking for a few sensitive young men and women to take a turn behind the tables.
if you're interested, please send an email to hungryjoe [this thingy] wgom.org. first priority goes to new DJs. spots left over will be spread among returning DJs (2011 DJs have first priority, then 2012's crop), awarded by random number generator. also, months will be awarded by random number generator.
deadline to apply will be thursday, 20 december 2012, at, oh, let's say 3pm CT
come be the next opportunistic renegade.
EDIT: if you have any months that won't work out as well, let me know and i'll try to get the schedule to work for you should you be chosen
EDIT II - RESULTS:
nice turnout for volunteers. we had 6 newbies volunteers, so they're all in. for the next group, we had 7 people that last had a guest run in 2011, so all their names were put into consideration. to choose, their handles were placed in alphabetical order, and then a random sequence of numbers 1-7 was generated and that order was matched to the alphabetical list of names. numbers 1-6 are in, and whomever received lucky #7 would have to wait until next year.
The candidates:
- Beau
- Can of Corn
- cheaptoy
- freealonzo
- MagUidhir
- Twayn
- Zack
and the random number list:
sorry, breau, it's going to have to be next year (though you'll be first in line if we need a pinch hitter).
and, with further random number usage to determine months with schedule requests taken into account, your 2013 guest DJs!
- january 14-20: Zack
- february 11-17: Sheenie
- march 11-17: Rowsdower
- april 15-21: Jeff A
- may 13-19: Philosopher
- june 10-17: Can of Corn
- july 15-21: freealonzo
- august 12-18: Twayn
- september 16-22: MagUidhir
- october 14-20: cheaptoy
- november 11-17: davidwatts
- december 16-22: FirstTime 'hitman" LongTime (added at my insistence, and, technically a newbie guest DJ)
there you have it, folks. if DJs want to trade months, that's fine, just let me know. thank you again for the great volunteer turnout. those that missed the cut this year will have much better chances next year. any questions, let me know.

December 17, 2012: Tis the Season?
I just can't get into the holiday spirit without a snowflake to be seen for miles. It rained here a couple of days ago and a few locals whined like it was the most unfair, ridiculous thing they could imagine. Sigh.
Bob Dylan – Tangled Up In Blue
first off, big thanks to bS; hope it was all you remember. second, i'll start to organize the new haul of guest DJs sometime this week. third, kinda busy, you guys. christmas lunch at work tomorrow, and i was charged with providing the music. as my own private chuckle, i included dylan's, um, take on "must be santa", which led me to this video. seemed as good as any.

i really wish i could have been around when this album dropped, long after dylan was thought to be washed up, and blew everyone's minds.
