DJ JACK RABID 'The Big Takeover Radio Show' #70 (2016)

or

Always a fan of DJ Jack Rabid and his vast library of alternative music and knowledge. I always walk away from his shows really liking quite a few new bands that I'd never heard. This month its 'The Black Watch' from this show, as well as a band called IdleWild. He'd picked 'Caring Line' from Government Issue as a tribute to Washington DC vocal icon John Stabb, who was also a close friend of mine. Oh man, I can't start weeping again.

Anyhow, here's the setlist. And I was really impressed with the new Ruts D.C. song.
