If there's a negativland set, will you play aluminum or glass? RIP, Don.

9:10am sphere:

hey folks. thanks for the Funkadelic this AM, Ken. needed the boost!

🚽

9:13am -Ken:

This last Funkadelic record is very weird and filthy but there's some great stuff on it. This track has less than four curses (I HOPE) so it's safe to play it as long as I have 4 dumps in the booty bank.

9:15am cory:

heheheheeheh "I have 4 dumps in the booty bank"

9:18am MD:

"Hear we come...Walkin down the street...get the funiest looks from...everyone we meet!!!!"

9:19am MD:

Hey hey.....We're the "FMU....IES!!!"

9:21am MD:

🚽

9:22am -Ken:

OK MD slow down my friend.

9:23am pierre:

I send bonjourning you way Ken !

9:25am Marcel M:

Tonight, I shall get my free sub. I have 9 secret words. Are those free subs hot and ready, Ken?

9:26am Okasa:

Wait… you have 9 secret words?! I thought I was current, and only have 8. Did I miss one?

9:27am cory:

i also have 8

9:28am SeanG:

9:28am bobdoesthings:

good morning.

9:29am Marcel M:

Morning Bob

9:30am specksnyder:

9:30am Marcel M:

You must've Okasa! He fits them in during re-runs.

9:30am bobdoesthings:

bonjour marcel

9:30am Marcel M:

Oh really SeanG and Cory? Please hold... let me consult my paper.

9:31am Marcel M:

My apologies people, I skipped a line! I only have 8 as well. Haha.. sorry for the scare.

And yes! Stork next week.

9:32am MD:

I love the Republican Clown Car!!! It is such a ship of fools!!!

9:32am Okasa:

Whew! Glad that is cleared up.

9:32am bobdoesthings:

this is some weird ASMR

9:33am Cecil the Bunny Rabbit:

Who wants to wound and stalk a Minnesota dentist for 40 hours? You can keep the head....

9:33am Marcel M:

Yes, I got too excited for the 7th word and skipped a line.

9:33am MD:

Did you guys enjoy my Morning Coffee rush back there???

9:33am Hot Bar:

Cheese and ONIONS! do I really have to spell it out?!

9:33am John Arthur:

Omg yes this is amazing. Cheese and milk

9:35am Okasa:

Ouch!

🚽

9:35am -Ken:

Yes only 8 secret words so far.. tonight will be number 9 on Seven Sec Delay.

9:38am Marcel M:

@Ken: Will I not be able to get toppings on my free sub if they are out of order? I skipped a line by mistake.

🚽

9:40am -Ken:

Marcel, you can still get a free smoothie, or an oil change (YOUR choice!) even if ten words are out of order as long as you have correct dates for the secret words.

9:41am MD:

oh my god! I have been brainwashed!!!

9:44am bobdoesthings:

wow...

9:47am bobdoesthings:

those orchestra hits really add a certain depth , and I'm not being sarcastic.

9:47am Goyim in the AM:

Man, Sigh are NOT kidding around.

9:52am cory:

i have to watch this movie now

9:57am Sam:

I know this guy, he used to be a pilot for Air Kentucky.

10:01am cee:

haha irving

10:02am Marcel M:

This phone call sounds like 7SD phone call training.

10:04am Bobbie:

Cecil knowing music comments preferred

10:05am Marcel M:

Man...this is quite saccharine

10:06am Claw!:

Good morning, all you ass-kicking individuals!

🚽

10:06am Ken From Hyde Park:

My handwriting is terrible. Does neat penmanship count when filling out the Listener Loyalty Club form for 7SD?

10:07am MD:

Hey do you guys know there is still snow in Boston!?!?!

10:08am Sam:

People like Irving just amaze me.

10:09am bobdoesthings:

IT'S NOT EROTIC!!! KEN!

10:09am bobdoesthings:

nooooooooooo NOOOO UNBOXING!

10:09am Marcel M:

Some of it is, Bob.

10:09am Sam:

Opening big sausage pizza boxes?

10:10am Marcel M:

The unboxing phenomenon is very strange. I come across it with guitar stuff all the time looking for reviews.

10:10am Dan B From Upstate:

One of my favorite unboxing videos it major nelson opening the xbox one. I couldn't give two shits about the xbox one, but it's such a weird video.

10:10am Andrew Waterloo:

Wow.. I only feel that way when my FMU swag arrives.

10:10am MD:

land of the freaks and home of the depraved!!!

10:11am Zepelim:

Dr Dmitri! Is the best!

10:11am MD:

What about "junk in the box!"

10:11am Marcel M:

@Andrew: We can start a sub sub culture of opening WFMU swag boxes

10:13am bobdoesthings:

@marcel - nahhhh the whole ASMR thing is not an erotic response.. if people are watching it for erotic reasons.. it's their own fetish thing.. but the actual response you get in your body is nowhere near an erotic feeling

10:13am Hot Bar:

The Fall - Boxoctosis

🚽

10:13am Webhamster Henry:

I dunno that accent has traces of Father Guido Sarducci.

10:14am Marcel M:

@BOB: Ok, but saying they use an erotic whisper is an accurate description.

10:15am Hot Bar:

many colors in the ASMR rainbow

10:16am trolltoll:

@bob, @marcel: it's all about the head tingle

10:16am Marcel M:

I'm not paying your toll, troll!

10:19am sugarwolf:

Yesterday my coworker was folding tissue paper with a ruler and it was like living in a real life ASMR video.

10:21am bobdoesthings:

@marcel -Do you get the ASMR tingles? some people don't. it's okay if you don't know what you're talking about.

10:21am Sam:

Man, sugarwolf, I would've come all over my desk.

10:23am Marcel M:

@BOB: I haven't tried, nor care to do so. But I've seen them. I'm just saying "an erotic whisper" is an accurate way to describe the tone of voice. Not the experience.

🚽

10:23am Ken From Hyde Park:

WFMU should be ahead of the curve. Start posting videos of the volunteers putting swag _into_ boxes. Start the box-filling craze before Amazon horns in on it.

10:24am Cecile:

holaaaaaa

10:24am Claw!:

Good thinking, Cken.

10:25am bobdoesthings:

no no no.. do you get the tingles?? some people have no idea what it's like.. I've gotten them all my life and when I found out about ASMR I was shocked that there are a lot of people who don't get them!

10:27am Cecile:

stream is bad on the app today

10:28am sugarwolf:

Haul videos are another YouTube rabbit hole

10:28am Dan B From Upstate:

I'm using the android app with no problems.

🚽

10:28am -Ken:

What are haul videos?

10:28am Claw!:

I get that shit, Bob. It's great. :-)

10:28am Sam:

Who needs the stream, you can just go in the bathroom and really be you.

🚽

10:28am -Ken:

Are you on wifi or 3G/4G, Cecile?

🚽

10:29am -Ken:

It seems like 50% of the ASMR videos out there are erotic-based. Check it out. Look up ASMR with every language you can think of. International audio eroticism.

10:30am Cecile:

I just realized it doesn't work when the site is also up on the computer for commenting. So it's all app today

10:30am sugarwolf:

Haul videos are basically just LOOK AT ALL THIS CRAP I BOUGHT.

10:31am Cecile:

So it's all good. I don't respond to ASMR stuff so whew

10:31am Polyus:

God bless all the bathroom dreamers out there.

10:34am Dan B From Upstate:

Watching Haul videos leads to watching OOTD videos.

10:36am Cecile:

Play something flashy

10:36am sugarwolf:

@DanB: haha yeah

10:36am Cecile:

Ah yes ootd

10:39am bobdoesthings:

I forget what you type in.... but I fell into a youtube rabbit whole of failed boat launches/boat tippings... Basically it's people unloading their boats from lifts/cars/etc and having it go horribly wrong.

10:40am Marcel M:

I think disturbed is on side one as well.... oy vey.

10:40am Marcel M:

@BOB: That sounds really fun haha.

10:41am bobdoesthings:

@marcel - It's fun but also can be cringy-bad/awful. b/c you know some guys caused thousands in damages for a dumb mistake

🚽

10:43am Ken From Hyde Park:

The "Happy Birthday" song may enter the public domain sooner than later. www.washingtonpost.com...

10:43am Cecile:

I like videos where drag queens make over James St James

10:43am Marcel M:

@Bob: Ah true.

🚽

10:44am Webhamster Henry:

OTOH, the Deep Dream stuff is remarkably dog-oriented. I think it needs to dream about something else.

10:45am Claw!:

This is nice.

10:45am Luke:

I am sticking with the Monk Turner + Fascinoma happy birthday song, it is great.

10:45am sugarwolf:

@Cecile: me too!

10:46am Cecile:

My favorite was Alaska doing his face in 20 minutes for $30.

10:47am Marcel M:

Do you think the girls sneaking up into the hotel rooms were ever let down when they found a bunch of very smelly drugged up drunks?

10:48am Marcel M:

Wasn't the point of the deep dream stuff to like, be able to recognize dog breeds or something?

10:48am Cecile:

Yes, Marcel

10:49am Marcel M:

Yes to both, Cecile?

10:50am Cecile:

Yes to the first

10:51am querty:

and i'm sure he respected you.

10:51am Fuzzy:

Look for "fail video" sometime...it's like AFHV with the benefit of no Tom Bergeron.

10:52am Cecile:

I never ever slept with anyone in a band, but I knew people who did

10:53am Cecile:

But not in a groupie way, they fell in love or like

10:53am trolltoll:

@marcel: deepdream is an abuse of google's image recognition algorithm, which happens to have lots of different breeds of dogs in its training data.

10:54am B&T:

hilarious..."two kinds of groupies" ... sluts and us.

10:54am common:

good day!

10:54am egal:

WFMU groupies?

10:54am Marcel M:

This is the super groupie of all time: assets.rollingstone.com...

10:55am bobdoesthings:

songs are written about them.. like that Carpenters song

10:55am Claw!:

Hey, Ken - peep dis chopped and screwed cover of "Lady In Red":
www.youtube.com...
Significantly better than the original.

10:55am MarieD:

Hey all. I just watched Almost Famous last night, with its "Band Aids." Good movie! This is great.

10:57am Kurt Gottschalk:

propellerheads sampled that velvet pants line

10:57am Marcel M:

@Kurt: That was my favorite line! Cool.

10:58am Asheville Jon:

wake me up when this is over and the music starts again. yawn.

10:59am Luke:

where is the music Ken?

10:59am Cecile:

My husband is appalled.

11:01am Cecile:

He's a romantic

11:02am left the building:

ken has left the building

🚽

11:02am -Ken:

Sorry Jon and Luke, no more music for YOU.

11:02am Mark S:

ironic in light of subsequent events

11:03am MarieD:

Hey Cecile, that's nice.

11:03am Private Presley:

Gotta speak up: I love this set.

11:04am Cecile:

It is, Marie

11:04am Marcel M:

I enjoyed the groupie talk. I told my friend about it just now, who revealed to me he worked with a woman once that used to brag about having sex with Steven Tyler all the time. What a world.

🚽

11:04am -Ken:

Thanks Private! dumbshits who dont get it that we're about more than music..

11:06am Cecile:

My theory on this song is that anyone else who sings it is a groupie. When Karen Carpenter sings it, she's a delusional stalker

11:06am Private Presley:

It's the whole lifestyle!

11:06am Marcel M:

A recording should come out of those two girls now.

11:07am Dumbshit:

Thanks for understanding Ken

11:07am MarieD:

That particular scene is pretty much gone now, right?I don't think there are many groupies now.... ?

11:08am Polyus:

I had to go look. . .apparently the old Groupie Central forum still exists: www.voy.com...

11:09am Cecile:

they're still there. It's just not the phenomenon it was. Because now we can hold jobs 'n' shit

11:10am Cecile:

Oh, that forum!

11:10am Cecile:

Leon Russell wrote it

11:11am Cecile:

Leon and Bonnie Bramlett

11:11am bobdoesthings:

@ken- i think you're right... en.wikipedia.org...

11:11am Slazenger:

At least once during every Ken Show, I find myself asking, "What the F@ck is this guy playing?" But outside of that, Ken is a radio Juggernaut.

11:12am common:

you cant escape leon...or bowie

11:12am Cecile:

See my comment above

11:13am Cecile:

Play some Green Velvet

11:13am B&T:

"Almost Fatuous"

11:13am Ike:

Classic wacky bed music! Love it!

11:13am Polyus:

He has his own documentary now.

11:13am Marcel M:

Guitar god groupies hardly exist. But I'm sure there is a new sort.

11:13am Cecile:

I just hated Almost Famous

🚽

11:14am -Ken:

Bullshit Cecile - I was sitting behind you, and you were singing along with "Tiny Dancer."

11:14am Cecile:

We're both right

11:15am MarieD:

Why did you hate it Cecile? Do you think it glamourized the groupie thing?

11:16am MarieD:

I thought it was fun and engaging, a little too long--no intellectual or emotional or spiritual juggernaut, that's fer sher.

11:16am Cecile:

It just made me roll my eyes a lot. I don't have the words to explain it

11:17am Ike:

It can be two things.

11:17am Cecile:

I also don't like any Cameron Crowe movie except for Fast Times

11:18am MarieD:

@Cecile: I hear ya'.

🚽

11:18am -Ken:

You're just mad at it because a post-sex-symbol Peter Frampton was in it.

🚽

11:19am -Ken:

Evan Funk Davies, what's on tap for tonight? People need to know.

11:19am Cecile:

I think he's hotter now, but he's no Donald Sutherland

11:21am sugarwolf:

@Cecile: who is? I saw his his MASH costar Elliot Gould in the Hoboken train station the other weekend. He's still cute!

11:21am common:

agreed...on all points, ceceile

🚽

11:22am -Ken:

Donald Sutherland in which movie Cecile? 1900? The Hunger Games?

11:22am Cecile:

Yeah, he's another silver fox

11:23am Cecile:

All of them. I just love him even though he's my mom's age for chrissakes

11:25am sugarwolf:

I like his look in his Little Murders role (DS, but EG, too)

🚽

11:25am -Ken:

Where the F is Evan Funk Davies. I need to promo his show for tonight and I dont know what he has on tap.

11:26am Cecile:

Sorry, a year younger than my dad.like that makes it better

11:26am Stau:

I Am A Groupie. Watch that classic bit of British cinema here...
youtu.be...

11:27am Cecile:

Don't look now might be my favorite because it's good and there is also nudity

11:28am sugarwolf:

I love Don't Look Now so much

🚽

11:28am -Ken:

Yeah, I love Dont Look Now. So Kiefer doesnt do it for ya?

11:28am Cecile:

Anyway, objectifying over...

11:28am Reeshard:

"Meat 'n The Boys' goes a long way towards justifying all Breckman's cracks about "dirty hippies" comprising the WFMU listenership.

11:28am Cecile:

Nah, too normal looking. And alcoholic

11:29am sugarwolf:

objectify away, Cecile!!

🚽

11:30am -Ken:

I know Reeshard, wasn't it great?!

11:31am Cecile:

Kiefer's character voices on the Simpsons are great, though

🚽

11:31am -Ken:

Where is Evan :(

11:31am Claw!:

I get made fun of for it a lot, but I've always thought Ed Harris is a hot old man.

11:32am bobdoesthings:

201 oh pledge?! Mark E Smith wrote this for WFMU didnt he?!

🚽

11:32am -Ken:

Ed Harris is the best! I've watched a History of Violence like four times because of him and William Hurt.

🚽

11:33am -Ken:

He did Bob!

11:33am Cecile:

Claw! Me too. He made Pain and Gain even better

11:34am SeanG:

History of Violence rules!

11:35am bobdoesthings:

@ken - oh really?! I thought it was just a coincidence.. haha.

11:35am Mark S:

The Fall did a great version of this during their Glastonbury Set

www.youtube.com...

11:35am Claw!:

Finally - someone agrees with me! I feel vindicated!
He's such a babe.
And he's quite good in movies. ;-)

11:35am Cecile:

Those eyes

11:36am Claw!:

I KNOW, RIGHT???

11:37am Dumbshit:

Ed: https://i.imgur.com/PBbzn6u.gif

11:37am Claw!:

So dreamy...

11:38am Claw!:

*swoon*
Thanks, Dumbshit.

11:38am Cecile:

Yes! Gay black metal!

11:38am MarieD:

I love History of Violence--I really appreciate Viggo...

11:38am Reeshard:

Thank you, Ken, for playing 'The Groupies.' Way back when, I'd find the LP in cut-out bins and would stare at the silvery-purple sleeve (without much data therein, if memory serves) wondering what it contained. Could never bring myself to pop for the thing. As you noted, much of sociological value there.

11:39am Dan B From Upstate:

Oh, I totally forgot to say thanks for the negativland. Thanks, Ken!

11:39am Cecile:

Yeah Viggo too

11:40am Utopiast:

That Bowie pic just gave me a spike of ASMR

11:41am Cecile:

Genius

11:41am MONEYBAG$:

"beholding the throne of might" has been my favorite black metal song title for years

🚽

11:42am Rich in Washington:

I need that Soft Pink Truth track. We have a contingent of crackpot callers who accuse KBOO of being a Aleister Crowley plot, esp. us late-night DJs.

11:44am Reeshard:

As I already owned the GTO's 'Permanent Damage' it seemed that I had all the groupie records I needed. Turns out I was wrong about that.

11:45am Dumbshit:

well shit: http://www.negativland.com/news/ Don Joyce (9 February 1944 – 22 July 2015)

11:51am bobdoesthings:

thanks KEN! you beautiful being you!

11:51am Cecile:

SPT's video cover of Black Metal is hilarious and filthy.

11:55am Kat in Chicago:

I own a battered but still silvery-purple copy of "The Groupies"! Found at a Salvation Army sometime in the 80s.

11:56am MD:

It was the "Show of Shows!" THANK YOU KEN!!!

11:57am Kat in Chicago:

I came in late and am not sure if this was played, but Propellerheads sampled the "he's wearing velvet pants" bit to nice effect

11:58am steve:

hahaha

🚽

11:59am -Ken:

Bye all!
