Trick or treat
Hear my beats
Rock out to some Judas Priest
If you don’t
I won’t care
They’ll just kick me off the air

Dr. Sir (yeah, I have two titles) Ivi Demi’s diagnosis:
BEATLEMANIA
A mental disorder of the funkitude function in the upper western cerockral cortex. Scientists believe it is a genetic disorder, but may sprout out as a result of a very sexy mutation. Symptoms include infection of the John Lennon, a necessity to rock out at inconvenient locations, and a growing taste of incredibly amazing music. To date, doctors are unsure of how to cure the disease, mostly due to the lack of interest by the infected to be cured. Recommended treatments include blasting Beatles hits and publicly singing “Twist and Shout” in a German parade. So enjoy this prescription of the best Beatles hits of all time and sit back and receive the best treatment out there. Don’t worry, you’re in safe hands.

I love double entendres…
There are few instances in human history where an event has been so impactful that its occurrence has absolutely shattered prior beliefs and changed the course of mankind. The Neolithic Revolution comes to mind, with civilizations choosing to stop nomadic living and settling into agricultural lifestyles. The Renaissance as well, with its influx of art and technological advancements, completely changed the way mankind viewed the world. And now, in the year 2009, you, yes you, have a chance to witness the next greatest era of mankind. An era of killer playlists. An era of incredible DJing. An era that’s too hot handle. An era that will simply be known as the age of London Calling with Sir Ivi Demi. Come to me my children of British rock, for I hold all the answers. I am the rock, the roll, and the holy guitar smash. My first recorded show, Naughty Beginnings, if you were foolish enough to miss it, broke boundaries, crossed lines, and rocked harder than anything has ever rocked before. Stories were told, naughty Albanian phrases were taught, and shenanigans were shared in folds. So listen in if you would like to enlighten yourselves, the playlist for this kickin’ show is presented below. Enjoy and feel free to cry, many do when presented with greatness.
WARNING!: May cause irreversible damage to the medulla rocklongata.
(It has come to my attention that a slight portion of the beginning of this podcast is un-London Calling-esque. Although they are phat beats, feel free to skip to the seventh minute if you would like to get to some real British music action. This in no way makes me infallible. My way is still the path to rock enlightenment.)
