Hi friends. I'm gonna jump in here. I won't pretend to speak for Dave, but I can tell you that, as another DJ, when the comments page is filled with complaints about the levels or other audio aspects, it can get really effin' stressful for the program host. Especially after said host has indicated they know what's going on. Sometimes there's nothing we can do. Please be gentle. Thank you.

Hey RRN! I really appreciated how you described Cheater Slicks on Joe Belock’s show earlier. They sound like they plug their guitars right into the electrical outlet. I don’t think there’s been a better description of them.
