Sex to 9 on LastFM

Yoda reporting in here, as of mid October I finally got around to setting up a LastFM profile for Maria that is hooked into our playout system. While it seems to work fine it still needs some minor tweaking as the ads seem to show up as tracks that were just played (causing artificial inflation of those tracks, which I’ve manually been removing from the recently played…) since it’s a long weekend here in Spain, I’m hoping I’ll get a chance to look at it. For the curious out there, you can check the profile out here: http://www.last.fm/user/sexto9/

Be aware the profile also includes all tracks from the show, show prep and even Diva Satanica.

Also there’s a user group created by a listener called the sexto9ers, be sure to join in, and share your discoveries with other Sexto9ers and your appreciation for Sex to 9.
