Listener comments!

8:31am ausmanx:

home movie from doug and jessie's college days on the gif tonight?

8:33am Doug Schulkind:

I'm the one in the dress.

8:54am ausmanx:

i'm kind of hoping brian is going to log on this evening, and he's watching the cricket... anyone out there, brian?

9:00am Jan Turkenburg:

Hi Doug and fellow listeners. Tuned in in The Netherlands.

9:01am bigplanetnoise:

Gooooooood morning!

🥁

9:01am dutchtheo:

roaring Howdy, tuned in The Netherlands dual

9:01am Maggie B.:

Hey drummers!

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

I'm a Jan fan!

Make some bigplanetnooooiiiise!

9:02am Doug Schulkind:

dutchtheo in the house!

Mama Maggie B, yippee!

9:03am Gina B:

Morning, y’all!

9:04am Listener Gregory:

Will be sipping the music in between duties today.

9:06am Sem:

Sure glad the Twenties are coming back.

Good morning, Doug, and hello, all enjoying some.

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

To Gina B or not to Gina B, there ain't no question. Gina damn B already!

9:08am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings duty-sipper Gregory! Howdy, Sem!

9:09am Stanley:

Yeah, along with extreme poverty, social inequality and racism.
Hi Sem, Doug and assorted hep cats

9:09am Gina B:

This is nice to wake up to! Now I’m trying to find my misplaced coffee.

9:10am bigplanetnoise:

Hi Gina and all Assorted Drummers....

9:11am Gina Bacon:

Morning, bigplanetnoise!!

9:12am Gina Bacon:

Hahaha....morning, Doug!

9:12am Doug Schulkind:

Stanley bringing the heavy! We can take it, Stanley. Don't let up Sir!

🥁

9:14am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and funsters and you ausmanx. Just got in and heard the score. Pathetic.

9:15am Sem:

Hello, Stanley! Greets, BiUK.

9:15am Doug Schulkind:

Brian in UK, over on this side of the drink when we hear silence, we say "crickets." Go ahead an make some noise!

🥁

9:17am Brian in UK:

Hey Sem. Sad week, do you remember the grey and white cat, Jackson? Well, Lili found him outside the house by the road on Monday morning, must have happened in the night as rigor mortis was well set in.

9:17am Listener Gregory:

Your comment about "crickets" points out what John Cage observed: We never actually experience silence.

🥁

9:18am Brian in UK:

@LG most people are too scared to listen to silence.

9:18am ausmanx:

we rely on you for noise, doug! two pretty awful batting teams, brian, sadly... and so sad to hear about Jackson

9:20am Doug Schulkind:

The Sounds of Silence is an ode by our foremost poet Simon Garfunkel.

🥁

9:20am Brian in UK:

Thanks ausmanx, it is a feeble way to go.

How was the trip to South Aus, if memory serves?

9:21am Sem:

We invest so much emotion in our pets; I can identify w/ that trauma, Brian.

9:22am Listener Gregory:

If you somehow got away from all sounds, you would then hear your own nervous system... or so Cage said.
If only you would hear Count Basie instead.

9:22am Gina Bacon:

I find silence to be deafening, mostly.

9:24am Listener Gregory:

The quieter it gets, the more I realize how much my ears are ringing.

9:25am Doug Schulkind:

True for so many of us, Gina. Those of us who can't stand the absence of sound so much we foist it on others.

9:25am Listener Gregory:

@Doug: Ah, so that explains your title, Foister-in-Chief.

🥁

9:25am Brian in UK:

@ausmanx, it is strange that this year the bowlers are fighting back, as you know cricket is made for batsmen. A bowler would never invent T20 cricket.
Trouble is now that they are getting the batsmen out cheaply, they have to bowl with less rest between innings.

9:27am JoeBlow:

I'm listening to crickets now... or are they frogs? and the drummer stream! good mornin

🥁

9:35am Brian in UK:

Doug, now that the comments boards are in full swing on this nutty station, have they made an impact on your role as a DJ and to what effect?
(less than 1000 words by next Friday!!!)

9:37am Doug Schulkind:

Thanks for blowing in, JoeBlow!

9:38am Boy Bunny:

Great to catch you live this morning. Usually have to make due with the archive.

🥁

9:38am Brian in UK:

ausmanx, Ingerland fight back, the little s..t Warner is out.

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
The immediacy and intimacy of the interaction during the show is nothing short of thrilling for me. It is a vital part of the experience. I have to always remind myself that the percentage of listeners who participate in the commenting is just a fraction of the overall audience. But I consider this a crucial element to the proceedings.

9:41am ausmanx:

western NSW last trip, brian, and out there again next week (after Oren Ambarchi plays in my house - huge numbers for that one!). drought out there is terrible and no sign of breaking. might do remote South Aust in October (nuclear test sites!). you been away this summer?

9:41am listener Rey:

Hiya Doug! Haven't listened live in a while but Im here in real time today

9:41am listener Rey:

And That time is 3-2 clave

9:41am Boy Bunny:

Sorry, "make DO." Eyes not completely open yet this morning.

9:43am Doug Schulkind:

listener Rey, welcome back!

Boy Bunny, welcome!

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

The first and best version of La Sitiera I ever heard was by Celia Cruz, though this take from Senegalese crooner Laba Sosseh is pretty killer.

🥁

9:48am Brian in UK:

ausmanx No holidays just quick breaks to see friends fleetingly.

Doug, this crazy station and the comments board has meant meeting other listeners from around the world. Quite wonderful.

Talking of which, where is the Dutchman and the Finn?

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
A thoroughly wonderful byproduct. To call this fluid, amorphous gathering "a community" is not so much bluster. I believe it and live it.

🥁

9:59am dutchtheo:

Biuk, Present! Taking it suave, shaking the hips

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

God gave us hips for a reason, dutchtheo.

10:00am Uncle Michael:

Good morning.

10:03am bigplanetnoise:

Mganga!

10:03am Gina Bacon:

Morning Uncle Michael!

🥁

10:04am Brian in UK:

Hello dutchtheo. Is it still very hot over your way?

🥁

10:07am dutchtheo:

We had a actually some cool weeks but coming week will be hot again.

🥁

10:07am Brian in UK:

Look how big James Brown was in Africa in the 70s/80s and on.

10:08am burke:

@UM Point well made! David Byrne wrote an essay called "I Hate World Music" and it discusses this issue.

10:09am Stanley:

Hi Brian, sorry to hear about the cat.
I have friends that lost a cat to traffic despite living on the quietest road imaginable.

10:11am mauri:

work, off. drummer, on. cool chang loo!

10:11am Listener Gregory:

What the heck? (Sixteen Tons)

10:11am Stanley:

burke: all he said was 'Good morning' but admittedly in a way well made.
(unless I missed something)

10:12am listener Rey:

Quilinchini is a name, Doug. According to the song, the Quilinchini's party was a big waste of time (no sirvio pa' na) as the authorities cut it short when somebody lit up one of them skinny cigarettes

10:12am Doug Schulkind:

Chang chang chang, it's mauri!

10:13am chresti:

Morning drum!

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

listener Rey brings the 411! Thank you for the expanation.

chresti hello!

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

Also, wahoo to you, burke!

10:16am Listener Gregory:

What the heck?

10:18am Uncle Michael:

I stand by my initial observation.

10:18am Doug Schulkind:

Even more heck, Listener Gregory.

Ooops, forgot to say 'ello, Uncle Michael. 'Ello!

🥁

10:18am Brian in UK:

Thanks, Stanley.

🥁

10:19am dutchtheo:

d.i.vo.r.c.e

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

P.r.e.c.i.s.e.l.y, dutchtheo!

10:20am Stanley:

@burke: I always thought the term 'World Music' was invented by record stores to stack foreign stuff in the racks and now, some 30 years on I don't hear people using the term. Well I don't, anyway.
It's off-world music I want to hear.

10:20am Listener Gregory:

It is good to know D I V O R C E in every language.

10:21am Gina B:

This is great!

🥁

10:21am Brian in UK:

Hello mauri, apologies if I have asked before but have you started at Tampere?

10:22am Doug Schulkind:

@Gina B
I have way too much of this stuff. Just letting off a little steam.

10:22am burke:

@Stanley I'll drink to that

🥁

10:22am Brian in UK:

@Stanley, I think it was a bunch of music journalists that made up the preposterous name.

10:28am Sem:

For the relentlessly curious abut our pal mauri:
"Tampere is dubbed the "Manchester of Finland" for its industrial past as the former center of Finnish industry, and this has given rise to its Finnish nickname "Manse" and terms such as "Manserock."

via wikithingy

10:29am Stanley:

@Brain - You're probably right.
@burke - actually, come to think of it, I do listen to 'music of the spheres' This podcast has some stuff from space:
Cities and Memory - remixing the sounds of the world

10:30am mauri:

Hey BiUK, yeah I started this week and enjoying it all here! Even working with Solidworks.
Sem, oh thats why everyones dancing like Bez here

10:35am Sem:

Heh!

10:35am Gina B:

Thanks, Doug!!

10:37am Linda Lee:

honest, these fabulous streams! wonderful!
hi Doug!

10:39am Doug Schulkind:

Bloody hell, thank YOU, Gina B!

10:40am Jeff g.:

Sunday was the sole day in the Drummer stream schedule left with only one show. Starting next month, every day will offer multiple program options for ya ears. And souls.

Hi, Doug, and fellow listeners! What *is* Polk salad, anyway.

10:40am jessie:

Oh, man. This sounds like the old days.

10:40am Doug Schulkind:

We need more ears, amirite, Linda Lee?!

🥁

10:40am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

well, hello, Doug and those generous to Drummers!

10:40am Linda Lee:

isn't that Clara Bow? the one Cleaners from Venus sang about?

10:41am Linda Lee:

many more ears. i think they're on the horizon, too.

10:43am Linda Lee:

Jeff g, it's poke salad: en.wikipedia.org...

10:45am fleep:

(surfacing) And the radio day begins, good daypart Doug etc.

🥁

10:46am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

I will be so delighted to hear more programming on GTDR! YAY!

10:46am thedunkel / el carnicero francés:

Good morning Mr. Drummer! Good morning all!

🥁

10:46am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

ha ha! i just realized Doug said we need more ears and then mine popped onto the screen!

10:47am Doug Schulkind:

Please to see you, Granny Spicy Tuna!

Yes it is Clara Bow, Linda Lee!

That is because we are old, jessie!

10:47am Linda Lee:

it's magic! :-)

10:48am jessie:

Good and old. This is beautiful.

10:48am fleep:

Ears to you, GST

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff G

From the Interwebs...

"This plant can kill you or be a part of a killer salad — so handle it with care. ... Pokeweed, also called poke or pokeberry (Phytolacca americana), is a native herbaceous plant found throughout most of the U.S., in fields and weedy areas and along forest edges and roadsides."

10:49am chresti:

Perfect timing GST

🥁

10:49am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

AS a rabid fan of Silent Cinema, i can also confirm that that is Clara Bow, however i am not quite at the level of telling you which film that gif is from, as i haven't seen it. Looks FUN!!!

10:49am Doug Schulkind:

fleep is here! fleep is here!

10:51am Linda Lee:

always love the way traditional medicinals are primarily poisonous & can kill you ~ but here, have some Oxy! enjoy!
when i lived down in north carolina the poke berries' juice staved off years of cold & flu. no other medicine necessary. so there, Big Pharma!

10:51am Jeff g.:

Ah thanks, @Linda Lee! A poisonous plant seems an odd choice for salad, but then I was never the risky sort...

10:51am Linda Lee:

see my prior note. :-D

10:54am Listener Gregory:

Hard to believe that Hampel/Lee cut comes from 1968.

10:55am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning, thedunkel!

10:56am Linda Lee:

you do have to know what you're doing with herbs, but honestly, in general the plants are *so much safer* than what's synthesized & sold routinely without any warning, it's absurd!

10:56am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
Just like Mets fans, you gotta believe.

10:57am fleep:

setting plant on fire, right now

🥁

10:57am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

well, there's always the poke salad of my namesake, the Japanese variety. Mmmmmm (don't worry fleep, it's dolphin-safe)

🥁

10:58am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

Linda Lee: i wish it were the kind of absurdity that amused me! We need more of that, please.

10:58am Linda Lee:

all salad is fine. :-)

10:58am Linda Lee:

yes, i know. we do.

11:00am Listener Gregory:

Here's Lee Konitz from 1968. He played at the opening of the club Birdland, with Charlie Parker on the same bill. And then I heard him earlier this year—still strong. What an amazing life.

11:01am chresti:

Some wake and bake @fleep?

11:02am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
His fans are known, affectionately, as Kon-heads. No they're not.

11:02am Linda Lee:

beautiful set, Doug! superb!

11:03am Jeff g.:

Let this set go on forever.

11:03am Linda Lee:

Clara likes 'the in crowd'. watch her!

🥁

11:03am doctorjazz:

Quick hi, very busy, dug the jazz set!

11:05am chresti:

Clara is the "It" girl

11:05am Linda Lee:

what was fun about the Jeanne Lee vocal: it echoed the cicadas chirping outside perfectly!

11:10am Doug Schulkind:

Quck hi back, doc!

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

@Linda Lee
I believe Jeanne would smile warmly (and knowingly) at that comment.

11:12am fleep:

@chresti Willie's Reserve, nothing but the best for this show

11:13am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff G
I would be all for keeping that set going on forever. All I would need is a small stipend and a trucker's buddy.

11:16am Franco Twinkie:

Linda, I grew up eating Perslane, Vedolaga we called it. It's just a weed really. It's particularly good with freshly made beans. Back in the day, it was uncommon and hard to find, but we had a patch in the backyard. My mom would say to us"Don't tell the other kids we eat weeds". How things have changed! now you can find it everywhere. Last Sunday while gathering up a clump at the farmers market I found myself giving an impromtu tutorial to several Chines women who wanted to know what the hell to with it.

11:18am chresti:

Purslane^^

11:19am northguineahills:

been studying for my interview, in which I leave in an hour (2.5 hour drive) been here, and will be until the first few minutes of UM.

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

Good story, Franco Twinkie! Good luck, northguineahills!

🥁

11:21am Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them):

hope it goes well, ngh!

11:25am Linda Lee:

hope they learned well, Franco!
amazing that you're still alive.. :-D

11:27am Linda Lee:

i break a leg, ngh! :-)

11:27am Linda Lee:

i know she meant it, Doug. :-)

11:28am Uncle Michael:

Please come and marvel, as Hinky Dinky Time presents three hours of 12" platter spinning, featuring the finest selections from record store bargain boxes, carefully curated from sea to shining sea...at the top of the hour...

www.wfmu.org...

11:30am Linda Lee:

are those gentlemen really talking about eating salad?

11:32am chresti:

I was thinking they talked about eating salad, too

11:32am Doug Schulkind:

Sweet LP cover here: www.fondation-langlois.org...

11:33am Linda Lee:

more fmu synchronicity! :-D

11:33am Linda Lee:

ooh! that's nice.

11:34am Linda Lee:

Clara likes this one too.

11:37am northguineahills:

Thanks, y'all!

11:39am Doug Schulkind:

@Linda Lee
I had to clear each selection with Ms. Bow's people.

11:41am Linda Lee:

ah. that explains it. she's very receptive.

11:41am Linda Lee:

i figured it was just the hooch.

11:45am Doug Schulkind:

Search no more! Your radio sherpa is ready to take you to new heights. Grab your oxygen tanks and follow Uncle Michael to Hinky Dinky ecstacy!
