    Hi Bryan,

    I'm listening to the show from a webcafe in the old city of Jerusalem.

    I think that such loyalty is deserving of a mention, in fact you could play Gigantic by The Pixies for me.

    Shalom

    LucaPoconi - It would be great to hear some Death Cab on GiO! It may also satisfy the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band fans out there as the band is named after one of their songs.
