Cool. Do you take requests?

Do you take requests?
Sure. I'll check this thread periodically.

On Saturday mornings I like to tune in to WAIF Cincinnati for the Cuttin' the Grass Bluegrass show. (Although it's not what it used to be.)
At your time-slot, WAIF shall have moved on to gay-lesbian programming, which is also good.
Keep in mind Ann Arbor is a loong way from "down home." The Queen City is just across the river. I was born and raised in Music City, TN.

DARK AS A DUNGEON. I wouldn't mind hearing several versions.
Trouble is, I'm not sure I can sit through the whole program... C&W ain't my strong suit. Most C&W is like most rock and roll: People who can't sing singing about things not worth singing about.

Hank-Lost Highway
Or play some Hank covers by the Norwegian band Hank's a lot: http://www.hanksalot.com/musikk.php
Vern Gosdin passed away a couple of days ago, but I don't know any of his stuff to recommend.
Other request:
Hank III - Low Down
Wayne Hancock - Gonna be flyin tonight, This lonely night, Miller, Jack and Mad Dog
Old Crow Medicine Show - Methamphetamine
Bill Monroe - Blue Moon of Kentucky
Roy Acuff - Night train to Memphis

Thanks, everyone. I'll play at least some of those songs.
Tyler: I've been planning to play a duet Vern Gosdin did with Tammy Wynette, though I don't own any of his records myself so I'm counting on a fellow DJ's assurance that we have a copy at the station.

Hah, "I Ain't Goin' Nowhere" is great!
