No Show / Technical Difficulties

August 15, 2011

This last week, the peaches all got together to watch Flop House repeat offenders Alex Pettyfer and Vanessa Hudgens in the retelling-of-Beauty-and-the-Beast-with-one-of-the-Olsen-twins opus Beastly.

Having suffered through the whole film, Dan set up the recording equipment as he has for countless (actually, imminently countable) shows past. However, after 20 minutes, eagle-eye Stu noticed the levels were peaking much more than usual, and we discovered that we were picking up a hip-hop station underneath the recording, making some of the audio unlistenable, and all of it annoying.

Dan believes he has diagnosed the problem — shielding problems with the old mic cables caused them to act as antennae and receive radio signals. He’s ordered replacement cables, but we won’t be able to record a new show until Dan and Elliott are back from vacation. Thus, the earliest a new show will be out will likely be the weekend of September 3-4.

(Although, if we have enough comments in the comments section insisting on it, we may throw up the bad audio as a “blooper episode.”)

Our apologies about the delay. We’re as dismayed about it as you are. Blame… we dunno. Science.

(Publish the blooper episode, I mean. I want to hear how well your acerbic wit meshes with the hip hop beats.)

We all know what we’re getting into. We’ll have nobody but ourselves to blame. Damn the torpedoes and publish the podcast.

Please please pleeease! Early September is still so far away. Plus, it’ll sorta be like someone did a Flop House remix tribute or something!

I’m thinking it’ll be much more like the fuzz between two radio stations. On the other hand, I need my fix.

C’mon! Flop House vs Hip Hop Mash-em-up! The kids will love it!

Publish it!

That would be as close to that Elliott Kalan rap album that we’ve all been clamoring for.

I heartily endorse this event or product.

Now roll that beautiful bean footage!

Oh man, I’ve been looking forward to hearing you guys riff on Beastly ever since I saw the poster. Please post Blooper 2 The Streetz.

For real, I’m ready for the dope beats.

Sure, but what we talking here? You gonna lay down some of dem radical beats Juggaknots style? Peanut Butter Wolf? Gotta rock those sweet, sweet power-jams. Blast that subwoof, groove it down hard with Roach Gigz and my boy Jay Smooth.

B-b-b-breakdown!
