  3:02pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

gweetings.
  3:04pm
Brian:

Yo, is that background "Ulster Orange?"
  3:04pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

more like "ulcer orange". the bleeding kind.
  3:06pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

great segue from the opener
  3:07pm
north guinea hills:

For some reason, I like Herbie Mann.... (have a few LPs)
  3:08pm
Parq:

Was anyone else in Boston in the winter of 78-79? And listening to BCN? If so, you probably also remember this Herbie Mann tune well.
  3:09pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

ngh, because he's funky, probably.
  3:10pm
Looms:

Hey Irwin! You forgot to put the picture of the week online!
  3:12pm
Laura L:

Memphis Underground is a song on which I have a few times put the needle (so to speak) back to the beginning as soon as it concluded.
  3:12pm
Savory c:

this herbie is perfection, danke
  3:13pm
Laura L:

Oooh, another excellent segue! Frisell/Cantuaria!
  3:15pm
v k:

right up my alley, this show has been thus far
  3:16pm
Irwin:

@Looms: thx for the refresh
  3:17pm
Looms:

Thanks Irwin! And what a great groove as a soundtrack.
  3:24pm
Carmichael:

fishmonkeystew:

Talking Heads twice in one day on WFMU?!? Very nice!
  3:33pm
v k:

anyone see Talking Heads live? how was it (beyond great)? that is one act i'm v sad to have been too young to catch
  3:35pm
popo:

saw david burn about 10 years ago and it was great
  3:36pm
Irwin:

david was so hot you needed protective clothing
  3:38pm
fishmonkeystew:

I saw D. Byrne play last year in Northampton, MA. He played a full set of music produced by Brian Eno, including many Talking Heads songs. It was unbelievable!
  3:38pm
Looms:

Oh V K, i was far too young when the TH worked together to see them live. One of my biggest musical regrets, but great dvds are available, especially Live In Rome and Stop Making Sense.
  3:40pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

oh this is FUN!
  3:41pm
Savory c:

Talking Heads 1984 outddor summer show at the old forest hills tennis stadium queens NY.
was just great with the full moon and the lights off..
  3:41pm
Laura L:

The Bran Flakes know you can't be too young for perversion for profit!
  3:42pm
v k:

seen 'stop making sense' but assumed it wasn't representative given that it was a 'movie concert' type thing shot over 3 nights; will def seek out 'live in rome'; thanks for tip
  3:44pm
Parq:

Saw Heads when they were touring to support Remain in Light, approx summer 1979, for what turned out to be the last performance of the quartet. A year later, they introduced their large Afro-influenced combo, and I really wasn't sure what to make of it. Really was something to see, though.
  3:44pm
Looms:

You can find many excerpts from Live In Rome on YouTube.
  3:45pm
Looms:

Irwin, your musical selection rocks today!
  3:46pm

  3:54pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

that's bad parenting. if you give in they'll want MORE.
  3:55pm
jan:

Should they have changed the name of Irving Plaza to the Filmore East and then Change it back again? These things weigh upon my mind at night.
  3:57pm
some kid who gave up the carrot routine:

I don't want anything.
  3:59pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

  4:00pm
BWW:

  4:04pm
lewis:

  4:05pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

@ Laura L, no, I do not. But I do like ice cream.
  4:06pm
Laura L:

And straight double prime marks where there should be what is referred to as "curly" quotes and vice versa!
  4:09pm
Laura L:

DCE, It's a funny track with a little monologue at the end, old guy with a German accent explaining how you shouldn't give a kid an ice cream, he will just want anudder one.
  4:12pm
Nat:

GNR - Ha!
  4:12pm
Dave B:

I was wondering who'd be the first to use the Swinger....
  4:12pm
cant speel:

either this is going to be funny or this is funny
  4:13pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

it's NOT funny. this song sucks in every permutation.
  4:14pm
cant speel:

your hate for it makes it even funnier actually
  4:14pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

holy swing. just now pulling all this in. got that carlton dance goin on..

I have to agree with DCE on this one. Sounds too much like original-flavor GnR, which is lame-ville.
  4:17pm
cant speel:

saying lame-ville is lame town though
  4:17pm
Franklin Gothic:

Helvie, put yer clothes on!
  4:18pm
Dave B:

@Elvis - the python behind the tune is what's kinda neat.

Q: "The Swinger is a bit of python code that takes any song and makes it swing. It does this be taking each beat and time-stretching the first half of each beat while time-shrinking the second half."
  4:21pm
Dave B:

I'll shut up now...
  4:22pm
cant speel:

never dave b!
  4:22pm

  4:25pm
PMD:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJzKftpjXmU
  4:37pm
The Log Lady:

Oh, I'm not tense, ponderosie. Life's a jar of coconut flakes! The log is a demanding log, however. I am merely it's handler.
  4:41pm

jan:

Wow- Spirit- Irwin- you always surprise. How about some Fresh Garbage.
  5:37pm
KC:

Or Ultimate Spinach
  5:40pm
jan:

Yeah, Ultimate Spinach came to my mind when writing my post. Some kid at school had that album and played it endlessly. Didn't interest me like spirit, though
  5:58pm
texas scott:
