Favoriting March 3, 2012: At the Risk of Sounding Stupid

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!



Messthetics is the Hyped To Death label's term for all D.I.Y. kinda punk lo-fi amateur rock/pop goodness n' weirdness spawned in the UK during the late '70s and early '80s. Obscure bands that only made cassettes, or appeared on rare 7" vinyl comps.

A Cappella Is Not an Ice Cream Flavor Mama Mia, Mama Mia! A harmonia of musical styles await you, focusing on voice as the soul instrument. Bismillah, no!

Tracklisting for this can be seen here.

Pledging $75 or more gets you my premium plus a chance to win the Messthetics 5 Pack at the end of the show.

Morning Gents and others! It's crunch time! Only a few more precious moments to send your generosity our way! Awesome to be here for yet another week of festivities.
  3:20am
Jay/ London:

Good morning bill all all I say that red is a bit hard on the eyes and also hard to read. I Hope people will give to the station, come on everyone
  3:24am
Destroit:

Hello Elwyn and Jay.
  3:26am

Hello, Bill Mac and other friends! Hoping for a bang-up show tonight, and a lot of giving, giving, giving.
  3:27am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

Messthetics 5 pack?!? What a great prize!
  3:29am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

At $600 pledged this year, I hit the wall and now have to lie back in the cut, but can't say for certain that I won't feel compelled to pledge a bit more anyway. Because WFMU is one great love!
  3:31am
Jay/ London:

Bill I gave last week of $180 sorry i can not give again, but looking forward to getting A cappella :) ... love this track
  3:31am
McGonigal:

Agreed -- that's quite a premium the stuff from Chuck Warner! Sweet show thus far.
  3:33am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

C'mon, pledge virgins. Slut it up! 1-800-989-9368 or wfmu.org WFMU will take you places you've never *dreeaamed* of. ;-)

Bill Mac, Bill Mac, Bill Mac......
  3:42am
Brian en Angleterre:

It woiuld taste like an echo.
  3:43am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

A Cappella is sorbet.
  3:45am
Elwyn:

Acapella would be a smooth single flavour.

It would be almost like vanilla in its subtlety.
  3:45am
infsqucar:

what flavor? i imagine something amaretto-like
  3:51am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

I'll tell you what flavor it ain't: flounder! ;-) Holdouts, please pledge to Bill Mac and WFMU. Dream a little dream of free. 1-800-989-9368 or wfmu.org

  3:57am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

We all need to band together and tie the shoes of corporate radio together to ensure a fall. I think *I'm* going to get an ulcer with concern over the station making its goal. Hahahaha. Let's do our best to prevent Bill, Rich and the rest of the on-site gang from adding to theirs.
  3:58am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

Hey, Winner Kim!
  3:59am
Brian en Angleterre:

That's nine, modest but perfectly formed.

  4:21am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

Without WFMU it's likely not a one of us would have ever have had the pleasure (?) of getting to know one Mike Lisk. That alone is worth hundreds, maybe even thousands. hahaha..
  4:22am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

Thank you, Sirs! Congratulations, Brian!
  4:23am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

arne da torino:

WEEN!!!! Bill, you wouldn't believe how well this matches the hazy morning sun here in northern Italy...
  4:31am
Brian en Angleterre:

You are just the man for the job, Bill. Have you got a song lined up for tomorrow night?
  4:32am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwod:

I wound find it dubious if anyone tried to convince me that Ween didn't go well with hazy *anything.* :-)

Skoal Kodiak! Thanks Bill
  4:38am
Stanley:

If I had all the money I spent on WFMU, I'd spend it on WFMU
  4:39am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

Apropos of nothing: thank goodness our little community here in the WFMU realm is vastly different than Celebration, Florida.
  4:40am
Adam in Portland and Lynnwood:

@Stanley, you might well be my dear leader. :-)
  4:41am
Marmalade kitty:

I listen mostly at home..probably listen more than I should ; a little OBSESSIVE, but I love It! Shows across the board, inspire my ears! The comments board is great company, love you guys :) Music is my life.. when I'm not working on my own music, I'm listening.
