So many people here, who normally come later, I'm tempted to make an early bird special joke... But won't.

I get my "new" computer back today.... so I get to work work work.... Marathon prep!

Dave B:

@chuck - I just had a vision of one of those Guinness Book record holder guys with the long curly nails, what with you being away so long
  6:16am
Chuck:

Not quite that long, Dave! hehe....
  6:17am
fred von helsing:

I pity da fool who's up at six without some bad-ass radio to tune in to

Hey Meghan, I sent a dropbox link to that rolly email address. I hope you got it. I also hope you got the actual cassette itself, but I think that might be a touch optimistic!

Best way to keep kids off the lawn is to land mine it....

Sorry. Only the cheese.

@chuck - claymores, keep the house intact

@Meghan - pray that Bosco doesn't cut the mustard

sadly he has already....

Robin I got the dropbox folder of it... haven't downloaded it yet... keeping fingers crossed for the tape to show up!
  6:28am
Caryn:

Landmines would damage the lawn though. Electric fence might work better.
  6:29am
Dave B:

Oh, if my cassette dubs came out all jacked, I'll provide replacement AIFF files for each side
  6:29am
Dave B:

I like the idea of a moat, filled with lava
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:30am

no electric fences just have stoners and drunks pissing on them and zapping themselves. (seen it with one in Germany with my friend who wanted to run after the sheep... don't ask)

Maybe the Doctor Evil route: a moat filled with sharks with fricking lasers on their heads.

Chuck:

As long as your eyes aren't crossed too, Robin! hehe....
  6:34am
fred von helsing:

Set phasers to pesky rapscallion, Ensign
  6:36am
Caryn:

Keeping my fingers crossed my tapes turned out alright. About 1/4 of the way through the dub process, the tape deck started making loud screeching noises like a tortured cat, occasionally so loud it drowned out the music.
  6:37am
Chuck:

Eeew, Caryn! That's not good!
  6:38am
Dave B:

Yeah, same tracks, same art. Limited run of 6, since those mini CDs and cassettes came in bundles of 6 pieces. I kept one for myself, and sent one to an old friend
  6:38am
northguineahills:

Going to have to take a nap soon after REM. Awesome theme park, Meghan! I'll catch the rest in the archive.
  6:40am
Robin The Fog:

Actually, Caryn, I had a couple of minutes left at the end of side A of my own mixtape (due to picking up a C60 by mistake), so I indulged in a little feedback screeching of my own.The results were surprisingly musical, I thought...
  6:40am
Caryn:

@Chuck: yeah, by the time I was near the end I was pleading with the tape deck to keep going for just a few minutes. I promised it I would never bother it with tapes again.
  6:41am
Chuck:

Refresh my memory about the mix tape deal, Meghan. It's been a while since I've been here....
  6:41am
Dave B:

I too am curious on the cassette mixes I did. On the computer it was 45 mins long, but there was still some blank space at the end

nighty night northguinea!

I am noticing the tape decks in this studio aren't working..... grrrr I wanted a preview!
  6:42am
northguineahills:

I love the Sloan cover of this Modern Lovers track. Night y'all!
  6:43am
Caryn:

They've decided to act all old and curmudgeonly, like mine, Meghan.
  6:43am
Chuck:

Not sure if my tape deck is working either. Haven't used it in years...
  6:44am
Robin The Fog:

Not sure if the number 80 goes to Euston anymore...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:44am
Meghan:

I think it is from when someone spilled beer on this board and shorted out some channels.... so in order to fix I think they took over the cassette one and the mini disc....
  6:44am
fred von helsing:

a sudden craving for eight track
  6:45am
Dave B:

Speaking of old tapes, a buddy of mine found a box of old Fostex X15 masters. He no longer has his Fostex. I still have mine. This'll be like a 30 year time capsule
  6:47am
Dave B:

Was the beer spiller publicly humiliated and/or flogged?
  6:48am
Dave B:

The end is nigh.
  6:49am
Dave B:

Get them into the studio
  6:50am
Chuck:

What the hell is "Snookie"?
  6:50am
Caryn:

I think the most horrific tv news I've heard recently was E! announcing that they were going to bring out 4 more Kardashian spin-offs. Oy.
  6:50am
Dave B:

And why are you orange?
  6:52am
Chuck:

Frankly, there are many things that I am content to be ignorant of....
  6:53am
Caryn:

And isn't Snooki pregnant now? I try to avoid any Jersey Shore stuff, but I think The Onion or some such website mocked the pregnancy news. I weep for humanity if those morons start to multiply...
  6:53am
Dave B:

I think a good show would be "reality roulette"

All the stars, a gun and a bullet. Each week someone dies
  6:55am
Chuck:

Speaking of getting old, every year that passes my tolerance for STUPID decreases...
  6:56am
Dave B:

@Caryn - Idiocracy is becoming real
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:56am
Meghan:

I love- What is a Snooki. Exactly Chuck... what is she? And why is she famous? for doing nothing
  6:58am
Chuck:

"Famous"? Well, I've never heard of her. Hence, I don't give a rats ass who or what she is or does...
  6:58am
Caryn:

@Dave B: exactly! As if the GOP nominees and Super Bowl commercials didn't make me think that already. And most reality tv contestants. But the devolution will pick up speed exponentially once the Jersey Shore morons start to breed.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:59am
Meghan:

Make it reality stars version of Battle Royale! (the survivor guys would love it!)

  7:01am
Chuck:

Actually, not giving a rats ass is my general attitude towards "popular culture"....
  7:01am
Dave B:

@Caryn - the opening sequence, with breeding formula is spot on

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXRjmyJFzrU
  7:03am
Caryn:

I'm exasperated by anyone getting famous for nothing, but at least some of those people turn out to be entertaining or have interesting personalities. The few brief Snooki appearances I've seen on late night tv have just shown me that she isn't even an interesting trainwreck or colourful personality. Just utterly boring and pointless. I think if I ever met her and tried to talk to her I'd fall asleep in 5 minutes flat.
@Dave B: very true. Mike Judge is the new prophet.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:03am
Meghan:

Chuck, if you hadn't heard of Snooki- A) you're lucky and B) you haven't been linked into any news of the celebrity type... (which I could care less about but I still know who she is and I don't follow that either!)
  7:04am
Chuck:

Ah, that's it, Dave! In the opening they mention lack of natural predators. That's what we need! A genetically engineered critter that feeds on STUPID!
  7:05am
Dave B:

@Meghan - "Reality Star Safari"

Gather me up and set em loose on the Serengeti, then hunt em down from Land Rovers or Helicopters
  7:05am
Robin The Fog:

Perhaps a WFMU reality series is what's called for?
  7:07am
Caryn:

Maybe we could just take them all, put them in a "Big Brother" type house, and tell them we'll be taping their every move for a tv show. Then lock the doors and leave them there to preen for nonexistent cameras until they starve to death.
  7:09am
Chuck:

On the other hand, we may lose out on some really funny stuff if we wipe them all out. There would be a lot less "News of the Weird"....
  7:10am
Chuck:

But that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make!
  7:12am
fred von helsing:

My 12yo niece is into Hunger Games, should I turn her on to Battle Royale or would it traumatise her
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:14am
Meghan:

well since it's about a 9th grade class killing each other to help with population control..... not sure!
  7:14am
Caryn:

We could keep them around, but just spayed or neutered. And with way less tv and press coverage than nowadays. I mean, if you want to watch those shows, fine. But nowadays, even if you actively avoid them, they are mentioned on the news, discussed in the papers, and referenced on talk shows, scripted shows etc.
@fred: if she's read all the books, she's ready for Battle Royale. (the later books get pretty gnarly on occasion)
  7:20am
Dave B:

Put them on an island, then ask the pacific fleet to use it for target practice
  7:20am
Chuck:

The simple solution, Caryn, is to avoid ALL media....
  7:21am
Caryn:

@Chuck: well, then I'd have to avoid WFMU. Not gonna do it.

All these singers are talking about "dirty old man" like it's a bad thing.

Elwyn:

I haven't seen Christa Hughes perform in ages. She used to be in Machine Gun Fellatio and then they broke up.

I don't think I have ever been to a show where she didn't go topless. These days, I think she MCs circuses and doesn't do the topless thing anymore!

I was amazed at the amount of dirty old man songs there was!
  8:08am

Wait, Meghan, you just wrote "groovy". A clear sign you're getting old. Ha!

  8:21am

Trust me, Caryn. But if you're curious enough listen to the archive for the part you missed and the time frame of the comments from that period...
  8:21am

@Elwyn - subterranean travels to the office.

Early morning meetings today
  8:22am
Elwyn:

@Chuck: I've made substantial progress on my biker scout costume but expect to have delays because they changed the requirements specification to have it as an approved costume. I now need a bunch of clothing made for it.
I can get you enough T-tracks for the blaster rifle for $50 but will probably pay later this month.

Is "Blue" good, I've not heard it. I almost bought it, but went for "Court and Spark" instead..
  8:27am
Dave B:

Chachi had the first Joni
  8:28am
Chuck:

Both GREAT choices, MKitty! I have both...
  8:28am
Elwyn:

@Chuck: I know things have been tough.

@Kitty: I think "Blue" is easily regarded as one of her best. If you get my mixtape, you'll get one awesome song from "Blue": "River".
  8:29am
Caryn:

I actually originally bought "Blue" in my youth after it was lauded in several scenes of "ER".
  8:31am
Chuck:

"The Hissing of Summer Lawns" is another Joni release you should check out everyone...
  8:31am
Dave B:

One sign of aging... Swollen Joints.

  8:32am
Caryn:

@Chuck: Is "Ladies of the Canyon" good? I've thought about getting it.
  8:33am
jeff p:

Speaking for myself, if I never hear another Joni Mitchel song ever again it will be too soon.
  8:33am
KevinWho:

Attack! Yes!
  8:34am
Dave B:

I'm sorry but "Ladies Of The Canyon" reads like a Russ Meyer movie title, followed up with "Beyond The Ladies Of The Canyon"

(and I'm with ya Jeff P)
  8:35am
Chuck:

Abso-freakin-lutely, Caryn! It is a very early release from her, like 1970 or so...
  8:36am
Elwyn:

@Caryn: Ah! It's been so long since my music purchases have been influenced by TV.
  8:36am
Chuck:

It's worth it just to get the song "Circle Game"...
  8:36am
glenn:

i don't necessarily need to hear joni again, there are quite a few joni songs by others i like. especially urge for going by tom rush.
  8:37am
Dave B:

@Elwyn - was this your las TV influenced purchase?

  8:38am
Kath:

Oh crap, I forgot it was Thursday!!!
  8:38am
Chuck:

Unfortunately, my house mate doesn't care for Joni either. She says Joni's voice gives her a headache....
  8:39am
Cheri Pi:

I look forward to that show Meghan! One of my favorites from last year.
  8:39am
Chuck:

Forgetting what day of the week it is happens to me all the time, Kath! Welcome!
  8:40am
suea:

Joni is one of those acquired tastes. For me, it's like shrimp - just makes me feel icky.
  8:40am
Caryn:

@Elwyn: well, they kept going on about it so much, I figured I'd check it out! TV mainly influences me if they play a good song on a show. But occasionally, the mention of a band or an album intrigues me enough to get me to find out more or sometimes to just buy the album.
  8:40am
Elwyn:

@Evil One: I've never watched that show and only recognise two musicians on that.

Still a little surprised that Enrique did a good cover of Springsteen's "Sad Eyes"...
  8:41am
Yair Yona (Tel Aviv, Israel, Earth, Milky Way):

what about Jethru Tull's Too Old To Rocknroll?
  8:41am
Dave B:

@sues - for me, tripe...

blargh!
  8:41am
Chuck:

I'll take the shrimp for ya, suea!
  8:42am
suea:

@Chuck... There will always be replacements in the ranks. Unfortunately.
  8:42am
Robin The Fog:

I love TMBG soooo much. 'Older' would also have been an appropriate choice...
  8:43am
suea:

oh chuck! i meant that for your earlier comment. not the shrimp one.
  8:43am
vanya:

@yair - usually they keep it for the encore!
  8:45am
Chuck:

Oh well, suea. Just thought I could get more shrimp!
  8:45am
Angry Samoans:

My Old Man's A Fatso!
  8:46am
Chuck:

WooHoo! The Bristols!
  8:47am
suea:

i am imagining this song being sung by Yo-Landi Vi$$er
  8:47am
Caryn:

I wonder if any WFMU listener would've asked for Robbie Williams' "I Hope I'm Old Before I Die"...
I actually like Joni more as a songwriter than as a singer. I have to be in the right mood to enjoy her singing. But when I'm in the mood: yay Joni!
  8:48am
Caryn:

Yay, The Bristols! Forgot about this song.
  8:48am
Chuck:

And a brilliant song writer she is, Caryn....
  8:49am
Caryn:

Damn straight, Chuck!
  8:50am
Chuck:

Now that great song writers have been brought up, has Joan Armatrading ever made it into the park, Meghan?
  8:52am
Chuck:

Or Eric Anderson?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:52am
Meghan:

Nope she hasn't

On a side note.... my cold coffee tastes like taco shells.... very odd
  8:53am
Chuck:

Taco shells? That is so weird!
  8:53am
Caryn:

@Meghan: maybe the remains of yesterday's taco lunacy linger in the studio?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:53am
Meghan:

I know! I am getting a distinct corn chip after taste
  8:54am
siggi:

or is it
  8:54am
Kath:

Is that an new Starbucks flavor?
  8:55am
KevinWho:

Descendents! Wooooooooooooo! Perfect! Thanks!
  8:55am
Rob:

Fingers crossed for '50 Yr Old Man' by The Fall...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:55am
Meghan:

maybe my coffee cup is made of a taco bowl!
  8:55am
Kath:

Perhaps Taco Bell has merged with Dunkin Donuts
  8:55am
Robin The Fog:

Great show today, Meghan! Let's hope we all grow old disgracefully!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:55am
Meghan:

awww, sorry Rob.... this is the last song!
  8:56am
Chuck:

The Park is closing on a smashing note!
  8:56am
still b/p:

We enjoyed the new Wednesday morning feature, Taco Talk, yesterday, and it undoubtedly left plenty of essence and crumblies.
  8:56am
Rob:

Arg! Never mind!
  8:57am
Caryn:

Rob, maybe Meghan will include that in the soon-to-be theme show: songs about middle age.
  8:57am
Dave B:

OK - THIS T-Shirt makes sense...

?!?!
  8:59am
Caryn:

Well, Dave, it is meant to be "absurdo".
