Moving on, parte the seconde

docwebsterLast night was the first time I saw Cancer pop online since the whole Vampire Radio debacle earlier this week. I started to msg him with every intention of ripping him a new asshole for the way things were handled, but what I "heard" spill out of my virtual mouth was profuse thanks for the haven and learning experience Vampire Radio has been for nearly two years for me.
I've been in the radio game in one form or another for just over twenty years (my first ever gig was in April, 1982). But in working with and for Vampire Radio I learned immeasurable amounts about the day to day nuts and bolts operations of what I truly believe is the future of radio, despite what the fuckwits of the RIAA have to say about it. I guess what my subconscious was trying to was give me a choice between being a bitter impacted wisdom tooth of a man (tm, Spider Robinson) about this, or give honest thanks for the good VR did me. Then, it seems, my subconscious made the choice for me, and I'm glad it did. Profoundly glad of it, comes to that.
Whatever issues I may have about the way things were handled are, for the moment at least and for good I hope, irrelevant. What happened can't be changed, and moving forward is the order of the day. I even found myself offering to help in whatever capacity I can when Vampire Radio returns that doesn't detract from my running of Radio Nosferatu. I owe what Vampire Radio and Cancer did for me and mine that much, at least.
I hope none of the other parties that were involved think less of me for this 180 degree shift in my thinking and feeling, but I simply had to ask myself what was more important, and this is the answer I came up with, it seems.
Vampire Radio - rex quondam, rex que futurus. Thank you, Cancer.
PS: Radio Nosferatu isn't 24-7 just yet, but it will be in the not too far distant, I hope.

If anyone does, I hereby volunteer to kick 'em *square* in the ass.
Love you.
