I would wonder if Knapp is locked into a non-compete.  If not, perhaps one night with him, one with Bateman?

You read my mind.
+1 for this, Art.

You guys keep going for the obvious/easy options... sometimes you have to think outside of the box and "go in a new direction".

Now I've been listening a bit to this new guy who might just be the PERFECT part-time weekend filler...

He's apparently based out of St. Louis... sometimes Los Angeles...

I think he said his name was Dave?

what could possibly go wrong?

But does he "get it"?

Oh I've heard that guy, I think he's called The NightFinch.

[DesertFox]

Boy am I late to this party!  Can someone PLEASE send me Art's PM?

[qaddisin]

The Night Hawk What Hawks Carnivora At Midnight.

[ItsOver]

I don't think he does but anybody interested in a decent radio show sure got it.  In the worst way.

...Burger King Wizard...

Pics or it never happened...

My two cents worth, Art:  9-12 PT fine. Replaying immediately following.

Single hosts on weekend nights. Alternating might work well.  Howard Hughes is great.  I really like Dave Schrader when he's without his sidekicks.  Obviously would love to hear Knapp on any nights if he's able. I haven't managed to hear much of Steve Warner, but liked what I heard.

I still don't like Ride my Seesaw for the opening music. (The intro is just too long.)

My consulting bill will be in Monday's mail. 

[Bonanza Pilot]

I have a quick question for the group, what do you think of the 9PM-12AM P.T. Slot?

Art

I agree with the new later start time proposal. It helps with that late night feel that makes the show work so wonderfully. It also eats into Noory/Premrats show more.

[DesertFox]

Well will be gone most of the day:

Can Art, MV or ANYONE send me a PM with Art's message?  Please, please--would be greatly appreciated!  I missed all the action.



Art--about 9 to 12...it's the perfect time!  It fits in with MiTD and as you always said the show always needs to be originally broadcast at night--gives us the mood and magic.  With the added bonus of going against Dave--like shooting fish in a barrel!

Seconded. All of it.

[DesertFox]

Thanks UC!  I got Art's message--yep Dave and Coast is in the crosshairs now.  I love it--great move, Art.

[Delphi]

Let me check out this so called private message

Agreed. Single hosts are the way to go.

For weekends, I like a rotation of Steve Warner, Howard Hughes, and George Knapp. It would be spectacular if once in a while this guy named Ian Punnett could join.

Also, I've cracked. I'm officially requesting the PM, please.

[chinaclipper]

dang....I come in early to clean and there is still a crowd here!!! (i'll just sweep up all these old PMs on the floor and catch the rest later)

[Who]

The Weekends are a open question, it sure would be a great opportunity for somebody...hmmm

Art

George Knapp would be excellent for weekends.

Art

I live in the Eastern time zone so it's perfect for me.  Midnight in the Desert starting at Midnight.

Well I have been on here since 2012 and still haven't gotten the PM. Could someone please send it to me? Please?

I bet you'd get more love when you change that nasty white worm avatar into something more pleasant to look at.

Since when has anyone been worried about "pleasant" on here!?

Would fap again.

all that and a pack of gum

[paladin1991]

Hey Guys, any chance this serial lurker can get a copy of Art's PM? How rude of me to just show up when I want something? My apologies...

-Jim ( I PROMISE...not a Dave-bot )

P.s. I understand that under the cardinal role of "he who smelt it, dealt it"....claiming to "not be a Dave-bot" would categorically suggest that I perhaps was one...but, I assure you...I have never even ate a pizza roll...

Jorch?

[paladin1991]

I am.
try something like this:

Fapity Fapity Fapity FAP 
Sorry.  It was an emergency.  Is that your mom?  You might want to get her a towel.  Or a smoke.

[jimg]

Jorch?

Come on man. Are you guys going to make me beg? I thought we were friends...You know, the kind of friends you never actually talk to while lurking through 100's of fucking pages of their conversation. Lol.

I've been listening to Art since 95, I was 11...and have been lurking on Bell related forums since. How dare you Palidingdingdiong!! How dare!! I'm an OG lurker, son.

Anyway, first thing I did when waking up was I picked up my iPad hoping someone pm'ed me! Son of a bitch! No love! I'm obsessed! Help a dude out...

[Art Bell]

Gabcast needs a place, too.

Art:
I suspect you've listened to Steve/Bateman's Dark City before. Have you listened to 'The Unexplained with Howard Hughes'? I think if we email an invitation to Howard to join Bellgab he would do it. Good guy and quality show. Reminds me of George Knapp in a way. Anyone else agree?

Well ok let's send  invitation to Howard and see how he feels about, I have not yet heard Bateman but I will

honestly, getting the PM with the secret Info wont really help you calm down at all.
I still don't know whether I should believe it or somebody just made it up.
