@Matt: I saw them in Chicago a couple of years ago. They did a residency called "Sitting In Chairs" at a brewpub. The night I went they were recording a live album [engineered by Bob Weston!]. A few days later they did an on-air session at WBEZ. A friend of mine was an engineer at the station so I got to sit in the engineering booth while it was happening. Afterwards they went down to Navy Pier and played one song for a video on WBEZ's YouTube page. If you look closely you can see me (I'm wearing a "Good Ship WFMU" t-shirt). www.youtube.com...

I'm using the WFMU app. The only log in that I can find is with last.fm (which I've never used/don't know anything). I was just noticing I've favorited things in the app which aren't reflected in my WFMU profile. They can't be linked?

I wonder if there was a collection of Poe poems/songs inspired by Poe released on Peter Pan Records.

Also on Wikipedia: a massive rise in the value of the Swiss franc. And, a term "Francogeddon" that has nothing to do with James Franco!

@Mike: I don't think there's a way to login through the app. I think the last.fm thing is to scrobble whatever you're listening to on the station via the app.
