A Very Tainted Halloween: TR Podcast Now Available

Trick or Treat Everyone!

And to help you celebrate all of your haunted festivities for the night, the first ever TR podcast, The Halloween Edition, is now available for download, comercial free, uncensored (You get a few "fuck"s and a skit from another radio show that we couldn't play on air) and with extra songs not played in the original broadcast!

The catch? None for you, except the first four talk breaks sound horrendous. There's actually a long story behind this that I'm probably going to write about in my personal journal and post here as it was one of the most frustrating expiriences of my life.

However, minus those talk breaks, it sounds fantastic! Extra special thanx go out to Mike Gaskin and Rob Spicer for helping to produce this, and Matt who will be uploading the podcast to bittorent. We tried to actually upload this to iTunes, but there were some complications, so we uploaded it to Yousendit.

We here at Tainted Reality wish you all an absolutely dreadful Halloween, and hope this podcast becomes its soundtrack!

Ok, there's good news... and then there's some hard hitting bad news

Guess we better start with the bad.

After speaking with members of the upper management of WIXQ, it seems that it is unknown when the webcast will return. They assured me they are doing everything within their power to bring it back, but certain factors seem to be out of their hands.

To make matters worse, my brand new 2 month old Dell XPS computer, crashed, erasing all work on Sailor Moon Chapter 2, Otakon 2006, and pretty much everything else that wasnt on my external HD.

Now the good news

The podcast WAS NOT on the HD! While it won't be up as soon as I had hoped, we'll do our best to get it to you before Halloween!

We also created a brand new outlet for Tainted Reality fans! You Facebook users will be very happy! We have started our own Facebook Group!You can join by going here:
http://millersville.facebook.com/group.php?gid=2215649874 (not sure if this link will work for people)

or

Doing a Group search for Tainted Reality.

The group is still under construction, but you can be one of the first
to join!

Also, re-working on both Sailor Moon Chapter 2 and Otakon 2006 has already begun. So sit tight, because we'll be trying to get these to you as soon as possible.

Now, there is a bit of uncertainty reguarding the BLOOD interview schedualed for this week. With the webcast being down, the majority of Tainted Reality's audience will be unable to hear it. So, we will be exploring several different options of making it available to you guys. If the podcast works out well, we might do it that way. Worse comes to worse, we'll upload it to the Myspace, either before or after we upload the Dir en grey interview.

We hope to get these problems rectified soon. In the mean time, we hope you enjoy the good news and look foward to the brand new interview with BLOOD!

No Webcasted Tainted Reality Tonight

As of right now (9:45am Thursday morning), the WIXQ webcast is still down due to the hacker. I believe it will be a safe bet that it will not be up tonight either.

My suggestion to you fans? Take the night off! Enjoy your Thursday night. Go out to you local arcade (if it still exists), start that exercising rutine you've been putting off, slay Ruby Weapon, drool over your fave J-Rock star more than you usually do, or have a night of raunchy fun with your significant other/friend with benifits.

Just don't waste the night all depressed in your room that Thursday night is ruined for the second week in a row because some fat, balding slob with the worst acne you've ever seen (we're not talking pizza face, we're talking about a Chicago deepdish meat lovers supreme!), who obsessively downloads Whores of Warcraft got jealous when he found out that uber cute girl he met on Myspace (who happens to think he's the lead singer of a screamo band and looks like Gerard Way) decided that listening to WIXQ rox0r more than showing him her breasts over webcam, which this pathetic puke-tard tub of lard begged and begged for.

Can you tell I'm pissed?

WIXQ HACKED! No Webcast Tonight!

Ok, get this.

Some D-bag hacked into the WIXQ servers and basically destroyed them.

So, for tonight atleast, the server is down and you will not be able to connect.

The only way you can listen is if you live in the Lancaster PA area and tuning into 91.7 FM.

Very sorry for the inconvenience, but blame it on the fucker that hacked us!

Be sure to tune in!

A Night That Made History

Thursday night was a record breaker in every way, shape, and form. Whether it be the number of requests, an audience that spanned from Europe, North America, South America, and Asia, or that our servers were maxxed out starting 5 hours before the show even started (only the second time in WIXQ history this has happened to the best of TR's knowledge, the first being last Thursday's show), I think it's safe to say that the productions of the Iron Otaku Network are now your number 1 source for Japanese Rock in the entire United States.

Here's the Playlist:

Dir en grey - Amber
Boris - Pink
Coaltar of the Deepers - Unlimber
The Back Horn - Ikusen Kounen no Kodoku
Plastic Tree - Ghost
Dir en grey - Obscure
Dir en grey - KR Cube
Dir en grey - CHILD PREY
Hyde - Its Sad
Dir en grey - Clever Sleazoid
Igunami Circus Dan - Minnagoroshi no Lullaby
Buck Tick - Kagerou
Dir en grey - Cage
Dir en grey - Ryojoku no Ame
Dir en grey - R To The Core
Dir en grey - Ugly
Dir en grey - Audrey
The Last Dance - Once Beautiful

Mars - Genjitsu
lo:lita - Monster In My Pocket
Dir en grey - Missa 6
Dir en grey - IIID Empire

Requests in Italics

Of course, the big draw of the night was Jason Heltin's interview with Toshiya and Die. In it, they discussed the Family Values Tour, the up coming new album, and "I'm a fucking rockstar, BITCH"! If You were unable to connect, the interview is available on the link at the post below this, and soon, uncensored on the Tainted Reality Myspace!

Other than that, for one night only, we threw the "One song, per band, per show" rule out of the window, and were sent a fucking shit load of requests for none other than the night's honored band.

We also breifly showcased 2 bands that will be playing Califonia's up coming J-Rock Connection J-Rock convention. These bands were the up and coming USA based J-Rock band Mars, and our good friends lo:lita. If you are interested in them, please check 'em out on their myspace links below.

Mars - http://www.myspace.com/godofwarmars
lo:lita - http://www.myspace.com/lolitatheband

Not much else to say. You guys made the night the amzing success that it was and we thank every single one of you for tuning in!

Extra special thanx also go out to Free Will America and Toshiya and Die.
