Ashtar has been the patron saint of Radio KTDN since its inception in June of 2005. He provided the server for the Great Tree Shard, and the Teamspeak server for it. In 2006 on his own initiative he installed the Shoutcast server and one experiment was all it took to convince me that there was no comparison. He then installed Shoutcast servers for Donahoo and Ghaelen so that our schedules wouldn't conflict. He tolerated my phone calls when a server reboot took Shoutcast offline, cheerfully doing a remote reboot. All of this was provided for the Cavern community. Thank you, Ash. We've had a good run.

This Saturday, October 6, will be the last formal Radio KTDN broadcast. I'm going to take a break (over seven years, almost every Saturday, plus others add up to roughly 500 shows) and then come back for the holiday season. Ace has given me carte blanche to use his Amber Horizons Shoutcast server. More about that as the time nears.

I'm thinking about an all-day broadcast. We might as well go out with a bang; the server company can't complain about bandwidth on the last day of operation. It'll be a showcase sampler of just about everything I've ever played. Wherever you are all you need is to connect your media player (Screamer Radio is recommended for simplicity and reliability, and it's free) to the URL.

I'll probably start around 1000 Pacific, 1300 Eastern, 1800 Central European.

Awww, I knew it was coming, but now that it's here... suddenly all the memories are rising to the surface. Soooo many events in the cavern in which your show was not just a backdrop, but set the tone and took center stage. Not just the music - although that was always great and often eclectic - but also your witty commentary and punny remarks. Not to mention your merry band of Rooftop Volunteers and the characters you and they portrayed. What a great time it was.

I do believe that I have been exposed to more new music and learned more background information about musical pieces through you in the past 5+ years than I have in my entire life. You have been a wonderful teacher! It's the end of an era, but I do hope we'll see your return soon and the beginning of a new era. Very Happy

Many, many thanks to our generous Ashtar for providing the server that brought us so many hours of music and provided a platform for our wonderful D'niJs. You gave us years of wonderful memories.

Thanks hardly seems to be enough for all you've both given to us, but thank you both. Very Happy

Listening. Smile

Edit: Hey LC, did we miss you? Just checked the HoK and didn't see you there or anywhere in the cavern. Will you be back later?

This was and still is an absolute 'Best of Ktahdn' Super Show our
Ktahdn has put together for us in his magical secret laboratory ... Smile

I'm very sorry, LC, that I couldn't join you before in the HoK as I had
other stuff to do and wasn't prepared to link to the cavern ahead of the
start of the AGM ...

I'd say, you definitely got that out with a proper and dignified bang in a
very graceful manner ... Many thanks again to you, LC, Ktahdn and our
Ashtar for the music and for everything ... Very Happy
