Hello my wonderful listeners.
We are two weeks into the young life of Shoes Optional, and I am loving every minute of it. We've listened to the classic rock standards of the Stones, the Beatles, CSN, and Cream, bluegrass melodies by the Railsplitters and David Grisman, psychedelic music from bands like Horse Thief, and folk from Scotland to Sardinia.
I can't wait to continue our ride on the musical magic carpet ride together, and if you have any suggestions or directions you'd like to go in, please let me know!
Here is what to look forward to over the next few months we have together.
1) More music from across the globe! Over the next few weeks, I am going to get a bit more worldly in my music choices
2) Name that sound clip sweepstakes! To begin each show, I will play a short sound clip of some media. The first person to message me where it is from will get to choose a song for me to add to the playlist for the following week's show!
3) Band Profiles! Every week I will write a short bio of a band you may have not heard of with some fun facts, songs to listen to, and a short list of bands that they are similar to.
I hope to hear from you soon!
Until next week,
Adam Kellner

Let's Start Off On The Right Bare Foot
Hey all you party people!! Yeah you! Welcome to my new radio show, Shoes Optional! You're probably one of my friends already so you know who I am, but if you know me, you know I looooooove ice breakers. So here we go!
Q: Who is your spirit tv character?
A: Uncle Iroh... I'd live in the Jasmine Dragon
Q: What is the best type of bear?
A: Duhhh... Black bear. Did you know that bears eat beets?
Make like global warming and break the ice in the comment section by answering those 2 questions!
So why is the show called shoes optional?
Ummmm I thought you knew me! I don't really wear shoes if I can help it. I like the comfort of the fresh air on my feet, the excitement of stepping on all different types of terrain, and being aware of the earth below me and not just the world at eye level.
That's a silly reason to name your radio show. What does that have to do with the actual show?
Well... I thought it sounded cool, get off my back!
Unlike my shoe policy, openness to new music and ideas is not optional. Rest assured I will play all your favorite classic rock standards: The Stones, The Beatles (deal with it Keith), Zep, and Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs (That's good... no that's bad... screw it, I say it's good!!). But, I also will play an array of music from genres that I think all you classic rock fans may like. You'll hear some bluegrass (all of the twang!), psychedlia, jazz, irish reels, celtic rock, and whatever else tickles my fancy.
Don't be a stranger! If there's music you want me to play, music I played that you think is the worst thing since Men in Black II and should never be played again, or just want to chill in the station with me over a cup o' tea and some awesome music, let me know!
My number is 310-903-3808 (how's that for trust), you know my website, check out my facebook page, and channel me psychopathically...psychotically...psycho... with your mind!
