During this particular period, I was listening to a lot of old-school rap from the late 1980s and early 1990s. One of my favorite groups from that era is A Tribe Called Quest, a trio [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=radioguydiaries.wordpress.com&#038;blog=23752042&#038;post=421&#038;subd=radioguydiaries&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

That’s when I noticed my broadcast position was less than ideal – on the stage behind one of the baskets.
