Distant Stations 3/11/08

It's the grand finale of Distant Stations, and the Bad Doctor is hanging up his scrubs and his stethoscope. But before I do, I'm going to leave you with one hell of a sendoff, full of the great music you've come to know as being part of Distant Stations. It's a four-hour spectacular, from ten to noon and then one to three. Farewell, Spokane, and remember: caveat auditor.
