DJ Name

So, I have been made aware of lately that my DJ name may not be a particularly good one. Originally I just used my first name, but seeing as every one of my guests has a fancy name, I began to feel left out. DJ Terror, I have been told, is not a good choice either, as I am the exact opposite of terrifying. Thus, before I venture to make another lousy choice, I will take suggestions from anyone who actually reads this.

Rules:
-Must not be obscene, I must be able to say it on the radio
-Must not be extremely long, we learned this the hard way
-Must relate somehow to the name of my show, as the show is named after me and the joke makes no sense if no one knows my name is Tara
-On second thought, perhaps we should let that joke die

Anyway, post by comment or stop me on the street and tell me what you think!

Little News...

Before we go on air tonight with another show and playlist, I must relate the following interesting fact.

Eric from Hold For Swank left a comment thanking me for playing their music. That is so freaking awesome.

For everyone reading, I definitely recommend checking out the band, they are my newest favorite band, and their songs stick in your head forever, I keep humming them while I walk around campus.

PS Hold For Swank: If you guys are interested in touring, I would love to get you guys up here to UAF!

DJ TARA TURNS 21 TOMORROW THE 16TH!

Attention fans: This week bought with it some horrible news. Rivers Cuomo of the band Weezer forsoke his love with DJ Tara to marry his Japanese girlfriend, abandoning years of heartfelt emotions and happiness.

To put yet another nail in this coffin, he also announced that Weezer does not intend to release any more albums, effectively spelling the end of the band. Rivers also annonced that though he is still writing songs, he will not be pursuing a solo career.

Now, in tribute to one of the greatest bands of the 90's and early 00's, we present Terra-Firma's version of the 5 stages of grief, personified by selected Weezer songs.
