This week’s art is a pastel crayon drawing, smallish, done in a semi-abstract fashion, of Christmas Trees.  This is based on a holiday display I saw last week at Water Tower Place in Chicago (seventh floor, outside Garrett’s PopCorn).  I took a few fuzzy photos on my soon-to-be-retired phone for reference, but to be honest, they looked more abstract than this piece does.

It’s just a holiday painting/drawing knocked out over the weekend so I’d have something appropriate to run in this space.

Over in radioland, Monday beginning at 2 PM on The AIR, we bring you a recent episode of Psychedelic Shack, and then at 3 PM an also recent edition of Herman Linte’s weekly showcase of the Progressive Rock of the past half-century, Prognosis.  You can listen to The AIR at the website, or on the embedded radio player elsewhere on this page.

Psychedelic Shack can be heard every Monday at 2 PM, with replays Tuesday at 9 AM, Wednesday at 10 PM, Friday at 1 PM,  and Saturday at 9 AM. You can hear Prognosis on The AIR Monday at 3 PM, with replays Tuesday at 7 AM, Wednesday at 8 PM, Thursday at Noon, and Saturday at 10 AM.

At 8 PM you can hear a random encore of a classic episode of The Comedy Vault.

Tonight at 9 PM for the Monday Marathon we devote ten hours to five more episodes of Sydney’s Big Electric Cat.  This is the last week that we will be alternating between Prognosis and Sydney’s Big Electric Cat, as we will be pulling the early episodes of those shows from the server to make room for newer programs. After they’ve been offline for a year or so, we’ll bring them back into rotation but for now, you can hear them Monday evening into Tuesday morning, and then those episode will go on hiatus. Later this week, expect some classic AIR holiday programs to turn up.
