Out of a huge curiosity for what happens at a radio station, I hung out with DJ 2 Tone Jones at WPFW (89.3 FM – Jazz & Justice Radio), a Pacifica Radio Station in Washington, DC.  DJ 2 Tone Jones has a Hip-Hop Show every Monday night from 10-11pm and he also DJs all over town.  He is one of the DJs for Words, Beats, & Life and teaches Sound Production at an area high school.

My excitement regarding the visit prompted me to take pics and clips of the evening (my favorite is the main image for this post).

Painted on the Wall On Air Signal Volunteers read to answer the phone for pledges Quote on the Wall Me next to a picture of one of the greatest of all time Sign at the front desk of the station Me with DJ RBI - althought you can't see him Two turntables and a mic... OK, no mic Don't Sweat the 'Technics' DJ 2 Tone Jones about to get busy

Below are two clips that were not shot with any particular goal in mind but to capture the moment.  The first features DJ 2 Tone Jones discussing the typical format of his show and the 2nd is a sneak peek at what it might look and sound like as a radio personality (in this case DJ 2 Tone Jones to be exact) speaks on the air.

WPFW is in the middle of their winter fundraising drive, so you may hear him talk about the need for donations.  I, of course, didn’t capture the entire show, but I did capture a great deal of the energy from the night.

It was extremely interesting and is a trip I’m sure I will make again soon.

Special thanks to DJ 2 Tone Jones, DJ RBI, and the rest of the crew for being gentlemen and such great hosts.  I had a great time.

See you all again soon!

Car almost buried...

It seems my car will be totally buried by some time tonight. Should I attempt to shovel it out or just leave it?

It just keeps coming! Snowpocalypse 2 - 2010

I guess I’ll really be in the house for the next few days!

2/5/2010 – I just had to share this….

It’s the view outside my front window, taken about 5 min ago.  My car is the one in the front (a green honda accord).

Wow!
