Iowa Basemen Tapes #309 07-04-2024 6th Anniversary Show & Happy anniversary 4th of July!

Night Listeners -

Six years ago this show debuted at 9PM Thursday July 5th, 2018 on 98.9FM KFMG in Des Moines, Iowa. We didn't have our show opener (the broadcast sign off) and I was literally pulling songs from my collection of demos and private press recordings of Iowa bands. Ben Smasher's 319 Dude Bandcamp Archive was a big source for material. We are opening with the same song we opened with six years ago, Moveable Feast's "The End of the World" off the Another Iowa Compilation.... Uncharted Territories LP. This was a way to share my collection with people and to indulge in Iowa's history of punk rock, hardcore, metal, etc. Now we are on four stations, a flourishing podcast, and our Bandcamp Archive so that these recordings don't disappear into the ether.
