Itching for Ichiban

Tom Hanks is out of his Colonel Tom Parker persona, and he’s returning to the DJ mic at Boss Radio 66, Saturday at noon ET. You may have heard that Hanks is a typewriter enthusiast and collector. Here’s a typed note he sent to Boss Radio 66 before it declared its independence.

I don’t know what the dispute was at WFMU that led to Rock ‘n’ Soul Ichiban leaving the station, but I used to work in the radio biz, so I know how it goes. Whatever the trouble was, Hanks is no longer just a fan of the Ichiban Sound, he’s part of it.

Want to listen on headphones? For ten bucks you can’t go wrong with these. No Bluetooth, no noise cancelling, just excellent sound. I’m listening with them right now. (No, I don’t make any money from Amazon!)
