Wevie Versus Stevie: Ken's show

Listener comments!

6:36am Ken:

Morning early risers! Just wanted to start off the playlist SUPER early this morning to see what would happen and also to say that as of now (635am) I really have NO idea what to start the show with.

7:56am dc waters:

Lopping off Florida is a GREAT start.

8:26am Dr. Goot:

Good Morning!

🚽

8:31am Ken:

Hi DC, Hi Dr Goot! Still searching for an opener.. why can't Swamp Dogg's "California's Gonna Slip into the Sea" be about Florida?!

🚽

8:39am Ken From Hyde Park:

Hi....can I cast a vote for "Cannonball" from Breeders? For no particular reason.

8:40am Dr. Goot:

myspace.com...

🚽

8:44am Ken:

This starting the playlist early thing is great! I can actually look for your requests!

🚽

8:46am Ken From Hyde Park:

Yeah, and I can lurk on multiple comments boards simultaneously. Excuse ma a moment while I go check on John Allen's board.

8:47am fofo:

Hi Ken & the Family! Oh, it's too early and I haven't dressed my username. Hold on.

8:50am F❀F❀ (:

There. Do you like my floral dress? I think it's perfect for this hot summer day here.

8:50am Dr. Goot:

Stevie Wonder "Higher Ground" por favor...

8:59am F❀F❀ (:

9:08am Ron (N.L.):

some BIG BLACK

9:08am F❀F❀ (:

Ken,

Please, what would be the name of the last song you played last week? The band's name sounded to me like 'Mansabhar' and the song title 'moon bit'(?). Can't find anything on the interweb and can't shazam it. Thanks.

🚽

9:10am AnAnonymousParty:

You can get a refurbished bubble blower for $18 on ebay.

🚽

9:11am Ken:

Fofo I think that was Boom Bip

9:12am KOTJ:

www.youtube.com...

9:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...I think 'stand your ground' fully justifies blowing this one's bubbles away...

9:12am KP:

Morning.

9:12am Sam:

Is that 2-3 in the afternoon on Saturday?

9:12am Ron (N.L.):

WHAT ABOUT A BONG ??

9:13am F❀F❀ (:

Did you know that Jim Roche is a serious collector of outsider art? He's also a respected art professor. But for me is the most freighting actor!

9:13am Dave B:

Howdy

9:14am Bobo the Clown:

i dont find rednecks humorous anymore. it's so 1990s

🚽

9:15am Ken:

And clowns are SOOO 1970's, Bobo!

9:17am F❀F❀ (:

Thanks, Ken! So Boom Bit is the name of the artist? Just found a hip hop producer under that name. But still can't find anything for the Mansabar - Boom Bip combo.

🚽

9:17am Ken:

Good point Sam, my worldwide comedy tour kicks off at 9pm.

9:34am Mike Noble:

I find something strangely appealing about Zooey Conjoinschanel

9:35am F❀F❀ (:

9:44am F❀F❀ (:

Ron (N.L.),

Did you heard about the American man that woke up with amnesia speaking Swedish?

9:45am Robert:

Coming in a little late, should I gather Ken found effective pain relief, or doesn't need it any more?

🚽

9:45am Ken:

DCE, we're talking about that poor young lady who is bein tormented by her classmates. As well as Zoey Deschanel's disturbing manic pixie symmetry.

9:45am Ron (N.L.):

i forgot I think

9:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...if Zoey cut off her bangs, I'm gonna yodel for 10 hours...

9:47am Ron (N.L.):

anyway GREAT TUNES !!!

9:48am F❀F❀ (:

Ken,

Did you know about this other bombastic news about Snowden?

The singer/songwriter of the Puerto Rican band 'Calle 13', René Pérez, is teaming up with Assange to rescue Snowden from the Russian airport! They met at the Ecuadorian embassy in London last week! The saga continues!

9:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...woh - hand trails...Alleve must be kicking in...

9:49am Mike Noble:

those bangs are a national treasure. too cute to fail.

9:49am dale:

9:50am tim from champaign:

9:53am Mark S:

Geez, what you're doing to your liver!

🚽

9:53am Ken:

Liver?

9:54am Planet Tyler:

WTH? Are you getting a 9/11 memorial put into your mouth?

9:54am tim from champaign:

Ken, wouldn't it be easier to take up cocaine or heroin?

9:55am crateslinger:

What is this the eighties all over again? Where are the quaaludes?

9:55am Mark S:

oh, you had your liver removed

9:56am Cecile:

Ken, poor you!
I get to go to the doc today because my ears still aren't right from last month.

9:56am Cecile:

Ken, poor you!
I get to go to the doc today because my ears still aren't right from last month.

9:56am Cecile:

Ken, poor you!
I get to go to the doc today because my ears still aren't right from last month.

9:56am Rev. Turnip Druid:

liver let die...

9:57am Van in DC:

The liver is evil! It must be punished.

9:57am Cecile:

Stupid iPod being stupid.

9:58am KevinfromBayRidge:

Yeah, LIVER, as in the thing that you'll be replacing in a year. And I hope that you don't wake up during that surgery.

9:58am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...yeah - add whiskey - goes swell w/ opiates...

9:59am Fredericks:

George Adams!

10:00am Mike Noble:

is it Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown?

10:00am Jack:

Actually, I'd worry more about your kidneys...Aleve and advil do their damage there, that's a whole lot you're taking. Wow, must have been some work you had done

10:00am Mike Noble:

oh wait gatemouth is just the lyricist. Fredericks has got the right idea.

10:00am Planet Tyler:

Ken could wake up from his surgery (or OD) speaking swedish (or german.) Koool

10:00am Fredericks:

Gatemouth wrote it!

10:00am Jack:

Stomach too...

10:02am F❀F❀ (:

Aww, Cecile! Your ears should be insured by taxpayer money since they tend to pick up the best music of the world. And that is not a patronising comment but something that came up from the bottom of my sincere heart.

10:02am Cecile:

George Adams sang on that.
And the great Paula Scher designed the album cover.

10:02am Roberto:

Oh that reminds me, I was monitoring the Rockland signal from the car over the weekend. It's definitely better than it used to be but still a bit unreliable. It seemed to get better the farther west I went.

10:02am bobdoesthings:

Hmmm.. Can't make the NY show.. maybe I'll catch you in Guam!?

10:02am Cecile:

Aw, fofo....

10:03am Jeff:

Vocalist was probably George Adams:

en.wikipedia.org...

"He was also known for his idiosyncratic singing."

10:03am Mike Noble:

New Pussy Riot video going after Russian oil czar Igor Sechin: youtu.be...

10:03am Andrew Waterloo:

I'm surprised DAT didn't become an unreadable format in that length of time.

10:03am Sam:

What... Seven Second Delay did something in bad taste??

10:04am Robert:

Tim, if Ken does the cocaine, he'd better put it on the wound in his mouth.

10:05am Mike Noble:

Topic suggestion: the Trials and Tribulations of Antonin Scalia.

10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

True Ken - you should be drinking gallons of agua.

10:06am noeems:

This 'Like a Virgin' instrumental version behind you is stellar Ken, can you tell us who it's by?

10:06am Cecile:

Play Stevie Wonder.

10:06am F❀F❀ (:

noeems,

Rockaby Baby.

10:06am efd:

Ideally that CD should be filed under "Zadvance Obituaries" so it'll be closer to the studio.

10:08am F❀F❀ (:

Wevie Stonder > Stevie Wonder

10:08am noeems:

Thanks!

10:08am Cecile:

Can you play Orgasmatron by Motörhead?

🚽

10:10am cklequ:

How about Orgasmatron by somebody else?
www.youtube.com...

10:11am Cecile:

Sepultura does a great version.

10:11am tim from champaign:

Robert, isn't that how you're supposed to check if "the shit is good"?

10:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...shouldn't play Stevie - that's just Superstition...

10:12am F❀F❀ (:

Wevie Stonder = Stevie Wonder

10:12am Cecile:

Play I Wish, that's a badass song.

10:12am common:

During his concert Sunday in Quebec City, Stevie Wonder declared he would not be playing Florida again until the abolition of “Stand Your Ground,” the law that allowed George Zimmerman to go free after murdering Trayvon Martin.

10:21am Neg-guh-tor:

Good morning, Ken! I'd like to hear Larry.

10:22am F❀F❀ (:

"And I know I’m not everybody, I’m just one person. I’m a human being. And for the gift that God has given me, and from whatever I mean, I decided today that until the “Stand Your Ground” law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again. As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world."

Stevie Wonder

10:24am Asheville Jon:

ever see Stevie Wonder in concert?

neither did he!

thanks, i'll be here all morning

10:24am F❀F❀ (:

Fantastic set!!

10:24am Mike Noble:

Stevie's gonna have to stay out of a lotta states: en.wikipedia.org...

10:27am Cecile:

Mike N. ain't that the truth.

10:27am Planet Tyler:

You got back around to your anti-FL stance via SW

Hey: Is somebody trying to hack FMU by having a Sign In Page that says 'http(s)://FREEFORMwfmu.org' - or is that normal?

10:30am Red Flyover:

WE ARE RECEIVING YOUR SIGNAL

10:31am northguineahills:

🚽

10:32am Ken:

Rev Rabbit - Whats the actual URL of that page?

🚽

10:32am Ken:

I need details on this page you guys are seeing.

10:34am northguineahills:

It was the page where sign in for my profile.

10:34am bobdoesthings:

rev rabbit -- I also got that... I figured my office caught on and blocked it.. got an "Unsecure Risk!" warning or something and cannot sign in..

10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...gifs appear to crash browser, so I close & sign back in
...if it fake, they be stealing our Sign In passwords!
- Something like that w/ 'FreeForm' in it Ken
- I went to FMU homepage to be safe, so I don't have it any more...

10:35am bobdoesthings:

hey Ken -- this is the URL that pops up saying it's unsecure: https://freeform.wfmu.org/auth.php?a=login&r=http%3A%2F%2Fwfmu.org%2Fplaylists%2Fshows%2F51538

10:35am northguineahills:

That's exactly what I got from my office, bobdoesthings. First time for me.

10:36am Van in DC:

wfmu.com is available for only $3,888

10:36am bobdoesthings:

this is the first ever time it's done this.

10:36am KOTJ:

I got that warning when I logged in, too. An SSL warning saying the site is not secure and proceed at my own risk.

10:36am Rick from SC:

I love Dokaka

10:36am Kenzo:

Thanks, everyone...I'm investigating this URL issue right now. Fear not, it's not anyone hacking you.

10:37am Caryn:

Hello all!

10:37am Ken:

OK, I see - that's not a hack but you should sign in at wfmu.org instead.

-Think I'll change my Password anyhow...

10:38am Roberto:

I might jog more often (or at all) if I could be followed by a kangaroo while doing so.

10:38am bobdoesthings:

oh cool.. signed in at wfmu.org and worked fine, Thanks Ken!

10:38am Kenzo:

Use the "Sign in" link that's at the top of the playlist instead of the "Sign in" link down in the comments box, until I fix this.

10:39am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ:

Got that warning page too. Just signed in on the main FMU page.

10:44am Van in DC:

Never mind, Ken put up Los Nazi de los Numero Uno! Can't beat that with a stick.

🚽

11:10am Rich in Washington:

RIAA!

11:13am Carmichael:

Thanks Ken!

11:15am Caryn:

So, gifs:
-"Le Voyage dans la lune"
-"Inglorious Basterds", of course

@RNN63: oh, and the Zooey gif is from She & Him's music video for "Why Do You Let Me Stay Here?"

11:16am Dr. Goot:

Love the Duchamp/Warhol mashup gif!

11:17am KOTJ:

Just Laibach and enjoy. This is better than 99 Luftballoons.

11:18am KOTJ:

or Leben heißt leben

11:18am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Ta. Zoey give me a feeling in my guts. Maybe I should eat something actually...
...Duchamp's thang is shifting colors...this's some good Alleve, mahn...

🚽

11:21am Rich in Washington:

I remember hearing this song (the Zager/Evans version) for the first time in grade school - our music teacher played it as an example of lyrics with social meaning, I guess.
I think it was part of the plot to thoroughly depress and demoralize us.

11:21am andymorphic:

never heard pr before...pretty damn good

11:22am Rev. Turnip Druid:

Eve of Destruction was a nice pick-me-up as well.

11:22am bobdoesthings:

i feel some khlam coming

11:22am northguineahills:

I think I've heard PR once before, probably from Ken, yeah, it kicks!

11:22am Caryn:

Been pissed off since yesterday, when it was made public that the government is going to be making the lives of independent radio stations more difficult. They'll be limiting the broadcast range of some, and taking away the broadcasting capabilities of some. The channels made available will then be sold, but apparently the independent stations will not be allowed to buy their channels back. In other words, big media conglomerates and repetitious playlists will take over, and freeform will virtually disappear.
Then today, the owners of the biggest freeform channel in the country announced there were going to be layoffs, or the channel will be sold. Ugh.

11:22am Mike Noble:

re: like a red prison, from Mark Ames of the eXile:
New Pussy Riot video goes after Putin's KGB henchman who took over the oil industry, Igor Sechin - throwing oil on Sechin's face. This is suicide the hard and painful way. Sechin is considered the scariest guy in Russia, the guy who does Putin's dirty work. The lyrics were written by jailed Pussy Riot member Nadya Tolokonnikova, who's in the "colony" in Mordovia.

On the same day Pussy Riot's jailed members go for Putin's throat via their still-free members, Snowden applies to Putin, leader of "powerless" Russia, for asylum. What a fuckup.

11:23am Caryn:

Yay, Russian Eurovision granny! She was my favourite. But probably not the granny that was the same age as Madonna.

11:23am KOTJ:

I wonder if Zaegar or Evans ever got any trim from that "woman can survive line?"

11:23am F❀F❀ (:

Pussy Riot Yэаh!!!

🚽

11:23am Rich in Washington:

@Caryn: can you point to a link?
I am curious.

11:24am bobdoesthings:

I knew it!! Khlam!!

11:24am Cory:

KHLAAAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!

11:24am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...if they were totally crap, they prob. wouldn't have bothered busting them...P.Riot I mean - altho' prob. applicable to Indep.Stations thing too if I read it...

11:24am hamburger:

well.... KHLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM

11:24am Planet Tyler:

Love the sin, hate the sinner when it comes to Snowden

11:24am Sam:

Yes, it's pretty easy to hate Putin, unless he's suddenly in cahoots with Snowden to embarass the US, then he seems like a hero.

11:25am steve in sykesville:

Hi Ken

11:25am F❀F❀ (:

Khlam is in da house, вэатchɛʐ!

11:26am Caryn:

@Rich: for what? The granny?

11:26am Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

To those keeping score, the funny freeform thing in one of the sign in links this morning has been fixed. But the funny freeform thing on the air remains invincible.

11:29am Sam:

I think the KH is pronounced like the Ch in Chanukah.

11:30am egal:

Hard K, soft H.

11:30am Sam:

Maybe this December you can have a Khlamukah celebration on your show.

11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- sorry for undue hype, Kenzo, all - !
- seemed Browser was getting slow - & this extra stuff appears in the URL on the Sign In page...

11:32am Mark S:

Bill O'reilly felched me!

🚽

11:33am Rich in Washington:

Caryn: the community radio thing

11:33am Roberto:

Welcome back, dancing babushka!

11:34am bobdoesthings:

you going to play any ennio morricone?

11:35am Caryn:

Funnily, while the original placards the pin-ups held were protest ones, the Russian ones are just basically encouragements to get it on.

@Rich: can't find an online version, at least not in English. It's been all over the tv here. Will try to find something.

11:36am KOTJ:

CARYN....is there an article you can reference with the info you posted about conglomerates and indy radio?

11:36am F❀F❀ (:

Listener Okasa,

You won't be able to stump her. Caryn's astounding capabilities can decipher even a 1x1 pixel animated gif.

🚽

11:38am Rich in Washington:

Weird that it comes out after recent news saying the FCC was making free lots of LPFM licenses.
Maybe companies found a way to exploit it?

11:39am Caryn:

@KOTJ: trying to find one in English right now. Can't say I'm surprised, as this is the same government who decided that crowdsourcing is illegal, and that small community bartering systems should be taxed. F-ing morons.
@Rich: not in the US, in Finland

11:39am Okasa:

@F❀F❀, I am dreaming the impossible dream.

🚽

11:40am Rich in Washington:

@Caryn: Ah, I see. Thank you. Sorry to hear.

11:41am egal:

Trouble had a Moby Dick theme on her latest program.

11:41am KOTJ:

Thanks, Caryn. Nothing seems implausible anymore.

11:42am Tome:

Finally got some connectivity , DSL might as well have 2 cans and a string ffs!

🚽

11:43am Rich in Washington:

Monte Cazzazza was the Neil Cassidy of the Industrial Movement.

11:44am Cecile:

egal, I think Ken was bitten by the whale bug. Or at least gummed vigorously.

11:44am F❀F❀ (:

Good luck, Okasa. Mi casa es tu okasa.

11:45am Caryn:

Eastwood is from "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".

11:47am Tome:

... but then again this is the best station in the whole world worth the wait ...

11:49am Caryn:

Dammit, can't find the radio news in English, only in Finnish. But reading the news pissed me off again. The smallest independent stations would only be allowed to be on air for 3 months at a time, after which they have to be off the air for at least 2 months. Then they can be back for another 3 months, and so on... Oh, and small stations will no longer be allowed to get sponsors or advertising to finance their operations. And half of all transmitter stations used by independent stations will stop operating. Aaargh!

11:50am northguineahills:

All of my records are in alphabetized regardless of genre. Right now, I'm up to Yo la Tengo since I started listening to them in ABC in Sept 2008.

🚽

11:50am Rich in Washington:

@Ken: I am so sorry about your collection. I've had to part with large chunks of my collection in the past due to disasters but nothing like a hurricane.
My condolences.

11:51am GSV Meatfucker:

and I thought I was high

11:51am Surrealist:

Pete, why hast thou forsaken us?

11:51am GSV Meatfucker:

It never hurts to plan ahead.

🚽

11:51am Rich in Washington:

My records are by genre, as defined by me. i'm too lazy to alphabetize.

11:52am Van in DC:

Condolences as well, Ken. I can certainly sympathize with you, as my entire vinyl collection was stolen.

🚽

11:52am Rich in Washington:

@Ken: Paul is dead, again.

11:52am Caryn:

Only young famous people seemed to die this past week.

11:52am Surrealist:

"Seger? I hardly know her!"

11:53am Robert:

I like your deriv'n of "shlock". A "schlager" would be someone who hits or strikes something, hence the idea of undistinguished hitting of a musical instrument or even of anything else.

Meanwhile I'm going to say that "Khlam" is related either to "acclaim" (as in "Everybody clap!"), or to its cognate "clamor" as in "noise".

11:53am Van in DC:

David Gilmour remembers Vera

11:53am Caryn:

I have records alphabetised, and divided by genre, so that each group is alphabetised internally, if you catch my drift.

11:53am Monica:

i know vera lynn!

11:54am Okasa:

Happy Trails to You, my fellow Kentonians.

11:54am F❀F❀ (:

northguineahills:

YOu don't have the ZZTop?! What about Z-Rock Hawaii ?!

11:54am Surrealist:

"We'll met a Ken someday."

11:54am Caryn:

I feel like this gif ID is unnecessary, so let's just move on.

11:54am GSV Meatfucker:

I have a better idea than fighting over minor points of grammar. take a shot and enjoy the show.

11:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...Byrds did this tune too yerknow...

11:55am Carmichael:

Hey, a chewing GI! This show his come full circle!

11:55am Surrealist:

Sh*t, "meet."

11:55am Cecile:

Caryn, that is insane.

11:56am GSV Meatfucker:

never heard a bird strum guitars before, but I am quite drunk, amybe im wrong.

11:56am northguineahills:

haven't hit the Zs yet, and yes I have ZZ Top and John Zorns and plenty of other Zs, including the Zs.

11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Ms. Caryn! : We cannot allow a gif ID gap - !!...

11:56am northguineahills:

I get through about 3 records per day.

11:57am Surrealist:

"We'll meat a Ken."

11:57am Caryn:

Oh fine, RRN63: "Dr. Strangelove"! But I refuse to put the full movie title!

11:57am Emile:

Ken, of course every American rock fan between the age of 35-50 (like me knows of Vera Lynn only because of the song 'Vera' on the Wall...

11:57am Robert:

Someone explained once on JM in the AM that music's OK during Tisha b'Uv as long as it's morose.

11:58am Surrealist:

I know Vera Lynn via Robyn Hitchcock's "The Yip Song." I'm 41, btw.

11:58am Caryn:

@Cecile: I hope you're talking about the radio thing and not my record filing system ;)

11:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Caryn: ...I was riffing on Scott film dialogue : ) ...hopefully you'll be in the bunker & your knowledge not lost to time...

11:59am F❀F❀ (:

The show is over, but the Ken saga continues...next July 20th, 9pm. Go there for me people! Thanks Ken and fellow khlamtoniacs! Till next episode!

11:59am Cecile:

No, your system is not unlike mine except for me it's jazz and everything else.

12:00pm bobdoesthings:

thanks ken!

12:02pm Van in DC:

dive into the pills time!

Danke Shoen Ken

12:02pm Caryn:

@RRN63: as long as the nuclear explosion doesn't wipe out my internal hard drive with its EMP... oh wait, I'm supposed to be human. Just ignore that. Nothing to see here!
