Pagan Music on the Radio? When Pigs Fly!

THIS IS WHERE THE PIGS ARE FLYING

Murphy's Magic Mess

Hi I'm Murf. I do a pagan radio, music, interviews and fun, show on KZUM Community Radio in Lincoln, Nebraska. The Mess, as we call it, is on every Sunday from 10am to noon. I have been doing the show since 1994, before that it was called the Spiral Dance. The Dance started in 1988 puting good pagan/Goddess music out on Lincoln's airwaves. I am also guilty of tossing filk and foolishness into the shows mix. We try to have fun. The WE, I speak of, is my co-host Diz,(He has an offbeat sence of humor). Well, so do I for that matter;-)

This page is devoted to showing my playlist for the week, mention of favorite CD's, new music we recieve and most anything about music I can think of to add. With a few comments now and then about the music and stories.

WELCOME

    • KZUM is a Community Radio Station. This week and next we are having our marathon fund raising,, as a community station, we rely on our wonderful listeners for the majority of our operating funds. Running a community radio station is not cheap. There are no advertizers/ advertizing, there is underwriting, but most of our support is from the community. People who listen to their favorite shows each week. Wonderful folks.!!
    • Every D.J. doing a show on KZUM is and must be a payed up member of the station. That's all of us; about 80 programmers. I think I'm lucky. I get to find and play all of the wonderful pagan (and many other) musicians.

      • I've been out with the flu. Dz did the show. and next weekend(Sunday, Sept.3, there will not be a show. KZUM is having it's annual Blues blowout. See you on the 2nd Sunday of Sept.

        Sept.3.00

        • Today, Sepr 3rd. was KZUM's annual Blues Blowout, which goes the whole Labor Day weekend. So there was no Mess today. What I did instead of being at KZUM today, was attend a wonderful and (best of all, after the music) Free concert at Omaha's Next Millinium pagan craft store. The concert was by ELVENDRUMS!!!! I have to say they gave a great concert, despite the heat and being outside. It was a lot of fun. I also, finally got to meet the owners of The Next Millinium who help underwrite my show. Judging by the smiles, a great time was had by all participants.
