Tonight on Radio Nosferatu

My sole surviving grandfather is apparently in the hospital with the Mongolian Death Yuck that's going around. They've got him on oxygen and he's doing about as well could be expected. But he is 80+ years old and it's touch and go. Frankly, I'm a nervous wreck right now because this is the man who got me interested in old time radio and big band music in particular. Normally we simulcast IPM Radio, but tonight I think I need to play a bunch of swing music and some of the usual stuff to kind of steady my nerves and get some positive energy going for the ol' duffer.

So come join us in #rf-callahans and #RadioNosferatu and let's see just how much positive energy we can raise up. Love ya, ya old buzzard.

If he is near by and you can get there go!. We can listen to a *best of* show if ya got anything canned. Btw, if you are interested there is a new station in the St Louis area the is doing all the old standards and big band stuff. 104.1 *The Red*... They have Sinatra, Bennett, Connick, Cincotti and others (Louis Prema too). If that is one of your fav kinds o music give it a listen.



Ye old squid, who sometimes wishes he still had some surviving grandparents.
