Listener comments!

  11:21pm
dave:

i can't imagine i'd have ever thought the line "there's been too many bungalows built for my liking" could really RAWK. it just goes to show you.
  11:30pm
efd:

I have to admit, until I saw that Dancing Did single at the last WFMU Record Fair I didn't even realize they had any other records out besides the great "Lost Platoon" on Stiff, which I've played often on my Mayhem shows.
I think it's funny that whoever wrote their Wikipedia entry described them as "British Goth Folk Rock"
  11:37pm
dave:

i can see the "folk" part, but i'm not too sure about the "goth" part. they seem too ANGRY about the fact that people are covering england's green and pleasant shore with single-family ranch-styles to be really called goth.
  12:05am
Randy in NC:

Watch the SNL TV Funhouse cartoon Maraka. A take off on Dora the Explorer. She calls the cat on it Mi--ens dropping the T's just as you describe.
  12:17am
efd:

MI--ens -- exactly! I haven't seen that cartoon, but I'll have to chec k it out. I first heard that from a woman I was working with years ago who was from Middletown NJ and kept talking about her new ki--en, so that's why I associate it with that area, rightly or wrongly.
  1:23am
Ike:

Nice old-school cut!
  1:26am
dave:

two words for the disco dance party:

more.
moroder.

take this one, for instance:

  1:28am
LAKE ARROWHEAD:

MORE RED SOX GOSSIP
  1:37am
efd:

whoa, look at all these comments all of a sudden!
@ike, glad you liked Stetsasonic!
@Dave, that looks like a possibility, although it would be a pretty big chunk of my budget.
@arrowhead - be careful what you wish for!
  1:41am
LAKE ARROWHEAD:

I request 5 minute EFD profile of the religious nutcases on the Red Sox or MLB in general
  1:51am
efd:

heh, maybe next week!
  9:06am
