I do miss Pseu but this, as always, is pretty cool ...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:06pm coelacanth:

well,i'm here,and ready for some monkey business.
  9:07pm Robert Norton-ski:

Oh wait I found the battery
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:07pm Parq:

Uh, Dano, it's Thursday.
Avatar 9:08pm Dano59:

To play along you MUST have fuzztone ...
Avatar 9:08pm Dano59:

haha rookie mistake...
  9:08pm Robert Norton-ski:

Now my aunt won't work.
Avatar 9:09pm Dano59:

guess I need to stay home more Thursdays..
  9:09pm Robert Norton-ski:

Oh that's ok too she wasn't plugged in...... Ready to rockkkkkkkkk
  9:11pm Robert Norton-ski:

Oh that's ok too she wasn't plugged in...... Ready to rockkkkkkkkk. just let me turn the volume up on the radiator so I can hear the music as I pray
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:11pm Parq:

Dano, I did it earlier when I came home and expected to hear the last of Kurt's show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:11pm coelacanth:

-i miss the '66 impala,& the beetle being the most common cars on the road.
...Dave's been on thursday nights for many years. . . i'll miss it when he's gone. (but maybe i'll die first.)
  9:14pm Cooh John:

Time to spazz!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:17pm coelacanth:

i JUST missed having my soul redeemed,with Kevin Nutt as my guide; so- i'll just have another glass of rye instead!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:26pm coelacanth:

Amanda Rocked your show,Dave. (i doubt Dave ever reads the comments board...but -just sayin' it anyway.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:29pm Dave the Spazz:

The chimp performs charades based on the comments.
  9:29pm Cooh John:

@ coelacanth: I caught the last half of SXR. I'll have a glass with you as a chaser.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:36pm coelacanth:

Dave the Spazz! i really thought you ignored the board! i wish i could see the chimp...'must be more fun in that studio than a barrel ...uh,never mind.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:39pm coelacanth:

Cooh John -i'm alternating. You want 100% rye; or 81.5% corn whiskey? (which they don't call bourbon,for some reason.)
...i'm pouring.
  9:40pm Cooh John:

Reed and Malloy arresting James Brown. Funnee and funky.
  9:41pm Cooh John:

coelacanth, surprise me.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:47pm coelacanth:

we're having rye. enjoy!
...yeah that show looks good. Last week's sinners show was particularly good too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:00pm coelacanth:

Dave the Spazz I never did summer school except for in order to graduate,because i quit my "work-study" job 3 weeks too soon. They still put june on the certificate... About 8 of us & a teacher who wanted to have fun. No regrets!
  10:00pm Cooh John:

They are all good. 'FMU sure fires my synapses.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:01pm coelacanth:

(Herman,a spazz if i ever knew one, know very well what happens.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:03pm coelacanth:

is this pre- Q./A. ?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:07pm jmd:

@coel..Hardcore Devo on Superior Viaduct. Great early-early Devo demos.
  10:08pm Robert Norton-ski:

I dropped my pick this violin is hard to play like this
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:09pm coelacanth:

i wonder what the second verse is like...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:10pm pacific standard simon:

I'm Enery the Ape, I am!
  10:11pm Robert Norton-ski:

same as the bridge but with words found the pick
  10:12pm JakeGould:

Wow! Demo?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:12pm coelacanth:

Thanks jmd! i have heard about that,too,but i can't afford it at the moment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:12pm coelacanth:

(live?)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:13pm coelacanth:

no,i think you're right JakeGould.
  10:14pm Robert Norton-ski:

broke a string on the ramones...nighty night
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:15pm coelacanth:

you only need 3 violin stings to play punkrock!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:17pm coelacanth:

(depending on your distortion pedals.)
  10:17pm Robert Norton-ski:

It was the string I was using as a guitar strap that I broke all those down stroke you know what I mean?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:18pm coelacanth:

!! Haha!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:18pm pacific standard simon:

Been trying to punk rock that (4-string) uke, but it just aint the same without a volume pedal.
  10:19pm Robert Norton-ski:

If it's punk there is no volume pedal man! all the way up up up
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:21pm pacific standard simon:

Peter No One.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:23pm pacific standard simon:

Take out the recycling, Dave. :)

When is Matt 5A playing Seattle?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:23pm coelacanth:

good one p.s.simon!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:25pm coelacanth:

i Loved that!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm coelacanth:

'don't hear nearly enough yodelin"!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:26pm pacific standard simon:

Ya needs that volume pedal when ya goes into tha bridge!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:31pm pacific standard simon:

This song always breaks my heart!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:33pm coelacanth:

the most money i ever spent on a song was Nathaniel Mayer. (village of Love 45 - 20$)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:36pm pacific standard simon:

BTW - I found the 1953 season of Dragnet on DVD at my local thrift shop -- best $4 I ever spent.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:37pm coelacanth:

That must be amazing! i didn't even know dragnet went back that far.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:45pm pacific standard simon:

Started as a radio show in the late '40s (most available on the internet archive), went to TV, then discontinued in the late '50s. New series in the late '60s, which is when I watched it. Was on the verge of another revival with the Adam-12 actor, Kent McCord, in the early '80s, when Jack Webb died -- and that killed that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:50pm coelacanth:

i remember both with some vague-ness from the 70s ; & i think i confuse the 2.
  10:51pm Cooh John:

pss knows his sh*t
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:54pm coelacanth:

(...actually it was the 60s,for dragnet. my sister & i,before i entered kindergarden,watched it because we thought it funny how he narrated- the time of day & all...We watched the Jack La Lane show for similar reasons...We like the german shepherd!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:57pm Ken From Hyde Park:

The Willie Mitchell number was great!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:58pm pacific standard simon:

Cooh John - Nah, I just have a thing for Jack Webb (despite all his foolishness). That asian guy on The Mentalist has been taking notes on how to act from Jack.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:58pm coelacanth:

Love out to Greg.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:59pm pacific standard simon:

Plus Jack Webb's badge number is my birthday.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:03pm coelacanth:

so...11 days from now?! (i had to look!)
  11:07pm Cooh John:

pas-somehow Jack made the stiff acting style work. Amazing. Did you ever see Jack on Johnny Carson? They did a schtick about Claude and the copper clappers. A must see. Probably on YouTube.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:08pm pacific standard simon:

Yep.

That LA Confidential guy has a thing for Jack, too.

I can't tell you how many times I sat through The D.I., -30-, and Pete Kelly's Blues on the Million Dollar Movie, as a kid.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:11pm pacific standard simon:

If you want to see him as something different, try Sunset Boulevard.
  11:13pm Cooh John:

I know. So out of character. The only time I have seen him smile.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:20pm pacific standard simon:

I gotta see Jersey Boys.
  11:21pm Cooh John:

Happy BD, pacific standard simon. I used to take some pills that had that number on them.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:22pm pacific standard simon:

Heh heh -- I remember d'ohs pills!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:23pm coelacanth:

i'm not seeing the beach boys either. no restraint necessary.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:28pm coelacanth:

...speaking of qualudes, here's Elvis!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:28pm pacific standard simon:

I couldn't remember any bad versions of "Fortune Teller", but Todd was kind enuff to point out The Who's live version, which is at least half-hideous.
  11:30pm Cooh John:

speaking of pills.....
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:31pm pacific standard simon:

Speaking of Matt Fiveash...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:34pm pacific standard simon:

Dave The Spazz was that person who convinced me to convert my "guilty pleasures" into "just plain pleasures", including The Coasters.
  11:36pm Cooh John:

What the Spazz sez, man
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:39pm coelacanth:

what's that thing called pygmy marmoset?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:43pm pacific standard simon:

Can I get a Carla Laemmle memorial, Dave? She was almost 105!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:48pm pacific standard simon:

It was weird, hearing her narrate the Dracula documentary, while seeing her in the movie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:50pm pacific standard simon:

Oh sure, I'm drunk, but I'm still more coherent than 99.9% of Frankie.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:52pm coelacanth:

Yes i can say that as well.

...i never heard of Carla Laemmle,but Wow she was beautiful.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:53pm coelacanth:

{...and 100% of Dean.}
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:54pm coelacanth:

Thank you Dave the Spazz.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:55pm Dave the Spazz:

I had to leave early. I left Bingo in charge of the records. Everything sound OK?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:56pm coelacanth:

oh! i though it was him all along.
Avatar 11:59pm Jeff:

Attention, WFMU listeners - do not be afraid when the website disappears for a few minutes while we do some maintenance. It's all planned... yeah, sure, planned.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 12:00am Ken From Hyde Park:
