    They're going to think I'm batshit crazy when I explain all of this but I don't know how to state the question without all the context. This'll be good.
    But Gerard said it was from 2001?
  2. Was near certain*

    I think it was the snippet that extended the search to 2009.

    I WAS ABSOLUTELY SOBER AT THE TIME YOUR HONOUR
  3. I re-read the whole thread and Chicago 09's long intro and correct snippets just can't shake me off that trail

    XRT also always seems to do broadcasts of Chicago shows, or "let's listen in live at Soldier Field!" for ten uninterrupted minutes, etc. It really lines up with the logic that it could have been a partial radio broadcast from that night, ripped by a fan, and a recording of these mere pieces of the show has never circulated regularly.

    I'm so into this.

    Bumping this back because hell yeah we're doing this again

    Still on my 09/12/09 Chicago kick. I really believe WXRT may have done a "live listen-in" and not officially advertised an FM broadcast, which may have then been ripped.

    It is the only explanation.
  6. 93.1 is the best radio station in the country please do not @ me
  7. Your yearly reminder that this is not a windup and you’re all doing god’s work.

    Just the other day I walked past the very table we heard it at. Memories of unsolved mystery
  8. You should've asked to find out
  9. Oh dear.

    I am just relieved that this original post came while we were still sitting there and not suffering the ill effects of any substance abuse (at that hour of the day anyway).

  10. Having been back to re-read this whole thread, I can now confirm I am going to spend the next 3 days watching funny Bill Bailey sketches - would highly recommend
  11. I am going to email XRT again tomorrow morning, but I swear it’s got to be a broadcast of the 360 Chicago date.
  12. Just remembered I have a cousin with a close personal connection at WXRT. Getting her in on this so she can see if they did an FM broadcast.
