after five months of merritt-mania, we're kicking off a new no love for ned theme tonight. i think i know what it'll be (and i may be putting it in writing to force myself to actually move on)! tune into wlur at 8pm to see what will anchor the start of our fall shows and stick around with us until midnight.
to recap our last theme, since april we've been starting each show off with a cover of a magnetic fields song (with maybe one or two by the sixths). we heard tracks from alvy nacho y rubin, all-time quarterback, the pains of being pure at heart, of montreal, mo dotti, homecomings, certain stars, superchunk, mary lou lord, white town, tullycraft, telekinesis, holiday, souvenir, b'ehl, kelly hogan, advance base, bromide, evelyn, the cat's miaow, john yoko, and the shins.
in closing, you can catch up with last week's show on mixcloud. thank you for coming to my ned talk.
no love for ned on wlur – september 19th, 2025 from 8-10pm
