Under 'What's Playing Today' on the home page, Evan Muse's show runs 6am-8pm. Then resumes 11pm-6am. Yikes!
9:05am
Ken:
Yes, rest assured that Evan Muse has not taken over Wednesdays. The database has simply gone ga-ga over him. Someone will fix it soon, I hope I hope..
9:07am
JJZ:
I see him as every show but one. Why must Dave Mandl sully "Evan Muse Wednesday?"
9:08am
JJZ:
Oops, answered before my message.
9:09am
Jack:
Hi Ken, I gotta tell you; last week your show was the perfect soundtrack for watching NASA-TV. Today I'm watching the astros suit up for a space walk. Thanks for the great music.

john:
my dog loves to howl along to neil young, but only when he plays harmonica.
9:30am
Brandon:
Nice to hear C. Newman writing good pop-songs again
9:39am
Ken:
That was the most Wire-like tune on the new Githead CD. Rest of it's good though.. I will play another tune from it later on.
10:02am
Ann Arbor Doug:
Yay for a Tony Wilson set. Please play "Shack Up" by ACR for me.
10:04am
Negator:
Holy SHit! I own that Batman record! No wonder I liked it so much! WOW! I'm gonna go home tonight and find it and listen with new ears! Thanks, Ken,
10:05am
Brandon:
erm, Tony had his problems. I hope history sort of forgets bands like Shark Vegas.
10:05am
Gigantor:
Regarding the Curtis Mayfield MP3 loop, once you listen to Kenny G for a while, you don't even notice things like that!
10:05am
Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
Dude, this is truly vile!
10:05am
jtm:
I never knew that Happy Mondays could be so sad.
10:07am
Bad Ronald:
What year was this released?
10:09am
Ken:
That Happy Mondays 12 inch arrived in the FMU library in 1987. There's no release date on it though...It was Fac 176
10:14am
Chuckles:
Wow, the drummer doesn't seem 100% with it on this version of Interzone. Reminds me of a cover I attempted once.
10:16am
marcus:
whoo, I love this joy division track so much ("she lost control") best marcus
10:16am
Chuckles:
How about something from New Order's "Movement"?
10:16am
Brandon:
Control never sounds old. As much as I might have grown tired of it over the years. It still sounds like a bolt from the blue...
10:17am
Listener Mike D.:
"Everything's Gone Green" by New Order from the 1981-82 EP would be fantastic.
10:20am
dante:
Haha, this Yat Kha song is confusing. I dont know whether i should laugh or cry.
10:21am
Karen in Sleepy Hollow:
When I heard you play Albert Kuvezin a few months back I fell in love! Went right out and bought the CD.
10:24am
Bad Ronald:
Thanks Ken!
10:26am
brandon:
hows about durruti column? They were a good band to chill out too, after all.
10:28am
nh_dave:
The one thing I can't stand about new order is that there are a zillion different versions of each song. They aren't really remixes, they are just subtle changes to the song... That and I heard one of their songs in a cingular ad last night. I know they did the sunkist ad back in the day blah blah...
Great song however. Old new order really was great (of course joy division was better LOL)
10:28am
frederic:
Isn't it a sign of old age when your teenage era music gets heavily played in tribute/obituary sets? Thanks anyway, Ken
10:30am
Ann Arbor Doug:
Ken, do you remember Cheryl Ho from the Professor's show? I'd love to hear that again sometime.
10:30am
Listener Mike D.:
Thanks muchly Ken, and nice touch on the ending/transitional moment there. This is why you are the DJ and we are merely the unwashed pavlovian masses!
10:32am
Ken:
Frederic - You are correct. But unless I am mistaken, old age does NOT lead to death.
10:38am
brandon:
whoah, these are those erm...hot pre-teen Russian lesbians.
10:47am
Iver:
Okay, since you're on other Russian theme, let's go a little north .... to Finland ...... to that fabulous proto-oompah-metal band..... don't pretend you don't know what I mean Ken!
10:48am
Tom:
Thanks for the internet Ken. I'm listening over here in Dublin. In Ireland radio listens to you! And Pete Burns has his own daytime talk show.
10:53am
otis:
Hummmm-pa. We are in Finland!!
10:54am
Ken:
You're welcome for the internet Tom. Al Gore and I invented it backstage at a Happy Mondays show.
10:54am
nh_dave:
We decided this was love cats right?
10:55am
Gigantor:
Yay! Humpaa! Now wouldn't it be a good time for some Eilert Pilarm? I mean, with the Elvis anniversary coming up? Oh, and Hi Tom!
10:57am
Iver:
Humpaa Mania
11:06am
Jeffrey Weyand:
Hey Ken, any leads on available downloads of Yat Kha? guy is tooooo kewl. (other than link on playlist)?
11:11am
Vicki:
Some creative searching through Blogspot will find you Yat Kha.
11:11am
The Framinator:
It is past 11am and yet no one has raised the topic of frames? What is this, some kinda bizarro world?
11:12am
Ken:
Jeffrey - I would suggest trying one of the internets. I think we posted their Joy Division cover on the FMU blog a while back..
11:13am
jtm:
Is it me, or are your math questions getting harder and harder?
11:15am
Ken:
Speaking of frames, everybody should check out Listener Buz's mockup of a possible new playlist layout:
http://www.pizzabytheslice.com/projects/wfmu/
11:15am
b:
sorry, took me twenty minutes to figure out the square root of 25x35.7895-8
11:17am
Marley:
I agree with jtn. I had to carry a six for crying out loud!
11:19am
The Framinator:
I like. Do the comments auto-update or just the playlist? It is fairly frustrating to be reading the comments and have the page auto re-load before you can finish.
11:20am
Ann Arbor Doug:
Oh jeez the playlist layout looks great! Good work Buz.
11:22am
Gigantor:
man, 386dx rocks! You don't here the new kids like Core2Duo doing s**t like this!
11:25am
pat:
Buz's design is perfect! Deploy immediately. As far as iframes goes, who really cares about Lynx for crissakes?? And I'm a Linux user...
11:28am
jeffrey:
Rooster? Hey, how's Olive and her Brats?
11:31am
bwalker:
you got the russensoul! you are fast fast fast
11:44am
kat:
Crisp sounds like John Lydon on premarin. Early (and great) post-gender hero. Good to hear.
11:44am
Marley:
Bravo Buz! Is that going to become the new design?
11:45am
Ken:
Hey bwalker! Nice piece on Morning Edition yesterday. I didn't even recognize your voice.
11:51am
bwalker:
thanks Ken! I guess its all context -
Sunday night was even more fun though!
11:52am
Ken:
I will be on vacation the next two weeks, folks. Thanks a lot for all your comments. To quote Donny Osmond, see you in September!
11:56am
fach001:
happy hollidays!
11:59am
