I send out an email before my DJ gigs that I'd be happy to share here if you guys think it's worthwhile. It's mostly playlists, downloads and sarcastic remarks because I'll strip it of its "street teaming" content. Here's an example. Let me know if anyone thinks it's worthwhile to continue posting it on Obner.

WORST REQUEST OF THE WEEK

WEDNESDAY 3-PACK
This week’s list has a new feature: a free three-song download of new music. The first edition features:
Modest Mouse – Missed The Boat: When I heard that ex-Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr had joined Modest Mouse, I hoped that it would sound like this. Also features James Mercer from the Shins on background vocals.
Sister Vanilla – Pastel Blue: If this sounds like the Jesus and Mary Chain with a female lead singer, that’s because it is. The new project from JMC founders Jim and William Reid features vocals from their sister, Linda.
My Teenage Stride – Ears Like Golden Bats: This Brooklyn band wears its influences on its sleeve. Fortunately, those influences range from the Go-Betweens to the Chills.
