I want to tell you all about this show, I really do. But that’s kind of like telling someone that you’re throwing a surprise party for them before it happens, you know?

And just like that, I’ve already said too much.

Let me just say this: if you were born on January 12, 1967, and were related to me by law for a decade or so, but in my heart will be my stepbrother for life, then this mix is literally just for you. As for everyone else, well, I hope you like Steve Lillywhite’s production, because you’re gonna hear a lot of it.

We’re going to do things a little differently going forward. I’m going to post my shows to Mixcloud first (starting with this one), then include an embed link here, so if you want to get a jump on everyone else, follow me on Mixcloud (and know that I feel like a dirty, dirty whore just asking that of you), and in return you will get a Fast Pass to every Dizzy Heights show going forward. Have a request or opinion about what I played? Leave your comment here, if you please. Just know that, at present, I’ve put several shows in the can before I’ve written the words you’re reading now, and that I appreciate your patience.

Thanks for listening!

Note: I said that a certain album came out in 1983. It actually came out in 1984. I regret the error, but not enough to re-record the between-song banter. Come on, I have a job and a wife and kids and stuff.

David Medsker used to be "with it." But then they changed what "it" was. Now what he's "with" isn't "it," and what's "it" seems weird and scary to him. He is available for children's parties.
