FMU Record Fair regular Spike Priggen posted that comparison page of music venues and their current iterations. I was struck by how many of them were in what is now my neighborhood, where I moved in 1989. Sigh -- I'm in the right place at the wrong time.

Peter:

1) Would never have heard of Muffs without your show - thank you.
2) Saying "Ted Nugent embarrassing himself" is redundant.
3) Seeing "Frances Ha" this afternoon - will let you know. Also, new Woody Allen is supposed to be good.
4) Re Hoboken - yes - have thought same thing. There was a good Chinese food place - excellent General Tso's, but it's gone now, too. So no reason as far as I know.

If I were going to a movie tonight, it'd either be what MK said, or Fruitvale Station...or possibly Wolverine if I was feeling Marvelous. If I was going with my wife, it'd be I'm So Excited (the new Almodovar film)

Hey Mike - go see Twenty Feet From Stardom-The Untold Story of Backup Singers, it's excellent. Hopefully, it's playing around your neck of the woods. Also, caught New Order's show in Williamsburg Park this week, they were fucking brilliant.

@Peter - Right! I wanted to see both of those, too! Alas, I'll wait for dvd's.

Can you ask Drew what extras will be on DVD/Blu-Ray? I know they shot interviews with a lot of bands/musicians that couldn't fit in the final cut.
  11:45am

As for the celeb stuff, I've seen Gwyenth Paltrow, Jennifer Connelly, and Anne Hathaway up close and in real life - they are stunning - and would be noticed no matter if on camera or not.

The Panther Burns clip is worth the price of admission to the film. And the Like Flies On Sherbert studio clip was a highlight for me and I wanted so much to see more of that.
  11:59am

The film resonates because the band story itself matches their music..beautiful and doomed.

@eyenoise - I agree about Panther Burns bit.

Nobody, but nobody in the 1960s in New York City gave a you know what about the Beach boys… We couldn't have cared less about those freaks from California. What did they have to do with us? Their culture if you want to call it that, was so far and away different from what we were experiencing in New York City that to identify with surfboards, Woody's, and bikinis would've been bizarre. We were British invasion fans. We were American music fans. But that did not include freaks from California. To turn them into these idols at this point in music history is to place them in the position that they never ever deserved. You want to great California band? Let's talk about the turtles. That was a great band. The Beach boys can go to hell.

Hi Michael, thanks for playing that great Springsteen track (could be a #1). You mentioned Sonny Curtis, and I wonder if you know what's up w/The Crickets. They were supposed to play a "farewell" show at that Lincoln Center out of doors fest in a few weeks (w/Nick Lowe) & now they're not listed. Can't find out what happened, or if they're doing a show anywhere else. Anyone know?

drr:

Listening to this a few days after broadcast, so this comment will probably be lost, but the comment about songs where the chorus blows up the verse of the song (referring to "Hurting Each Other") I thought was a perfect description of "Here Comes The Night" by Them. I was sure that was what was going to be played.
