I am here for Friends

About Me



Hey, I’m Shane McAllister, and apparently this is my MySpace page.

I do the Whatever show from 3-6am on even nights on 94.3-FM WMMP in Sherwood, MD. Sorry, I mean WVMP: The Lifeblood of Rock ‘n’ Roll . We’re vampires. Yeah.

My show mostly features music from the late eighties and early nineties, everything from post-punk to indie to grunge and riot grrrrls. Check out my favorites over there to get an idea. I also play other bands I don’t like but that people expect to hear, because it’s my job.

But no Foo Fighters. A guy’s gotta draw the line somewhere.

Here’s my playlist. I change it up every now and then, so come back some other time to hear what I’ve added.


I’m also supposed to tell you about the intrusive new novel about our adventures at WVMP, Wicked Game by Jeri Smith-Ready. You can read the back cover and an excerpt on Jeri’s website. Then go order it from Mysterious Galaxy or from Amazon . Or not. Whatever.

By the way, in real life, Ciara's much hotter than the girl on the cover.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Music lovers.

Remembering Pac-Man

I found this hilarious video on YouTube, a spoof of "Pac-Man: The Movie": I was insane over Pac-Man when I was 13. I even bought a book that gave the "formula"--the exact pattern to play to ...

I hear dead people

This rocked my world.  It's an online radio station called I Hear Dead People.  Every song they play has at least one dead person in the band.  Morbid? Yeah.  But still cool. ...

My moods

No, I'm not talking about the swings.  Maybe some other time we'll get into that.I'm talking about this goddamn blog layout.  For some reason, when I choose a mood from the list, instead of ...

MySpace etiquette question

How soon can I de-friend Tom without looking like a complete jagoff?
