As most of you know, I'm a vinyl enthusiast, and it runs in my family. In August 2016, my family and I were going to take a trip to Play It Again records, but the day we decided to go, we found out once we had arrived that the store had sadly closed down.
On our GPS, we were looking around for other record stores, and Double Decker Records came up in the search results, and we took our first trip there.
We had first met everyone there, but it wasn't until October 2016 that we became close friends with the staff, and among this staff is an awesome guy named Chris, who's a dream friend for us because he's naturally cool and into amazing music just like we are.
During one of our conversations, it came up that Chris has a history in radio, and we started listening to his show every week, and that lasted from October 2016 to December 2017.
On December 19, 2017, the big news was announced that Chris was making a brand new show, which has branched out further than punk, power pop, and new wave to something marvelous every week. The playlists go from AC/DC to Devo to Jimmy Eat World to XTC, to name a few.
I hate to be a selfless promoter, but if you're into something different than the mainstream, Midday Melodies is the way to check out what radio was and is because you never know what song will be next.
This show gives a chance for bands from different genres and generations to be in one place, and it's open-minded to having different things working together in harmony. So, make time every Tuesday from 12-2, you won't regret it.
