Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:26pm From: Irene

Oops! here comes another. Guess I'm just in that mood today!

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:32pm From: north guinea hills

woooooooow, james blackshaw w/ josem van wissem..... (i must weep from the eophoria)

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:32pm From: Jack

And I've been dying to ask you to play some Peter Walker, but that would probably be redundant at this point. Maybe next week? And how about having Peter back on your show sometime...? Thanks Irene.

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:35pm From: Irene

I might be persuaded to play something by Peter later. If I don't get to it, certainly next week.

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:35pm From: Richard - New Zealand

Gently now...the cicadas in my back garden are keeping in tune...

Irene, do you have any info at all on the Lacrymosa selection you played on your last two shows?

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 3:58pm From: north guinea hills

last kitchen cynics of distinction?

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 4:24pm From: m

this stuff is lovely (the session stuff)

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 4:32pm From: Irene

Archmo-- Lacrymosa is Caitlin Pasko, a student at NYU's music school and she is currently unsigned. I do know she's doing a set this Wednesday night at the Sidewalk Cafe. Her myspace page is http://www.myspace.com/lacrymosa

Fos in Denmark sent this re: the Unni Boksasp song:
> Sitting in denmark and listening to you speak and translating it from over here to there: song from havdal and the song is men and the fox

many thanks...awesome show

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 5:12pm From: RagnarR in SF Bay

Irene - Great show as usual. What's this drony/bell toned music you're playing behind your mic breaks? Thanks.

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 5:17pm From: Irene

Ah, the drone is the Boudhanath Bell in Tibet. David Hykes, who was on a couple of weeks ago, recorded it and looped it. He gave me a copy to play on air. It's an amazing tone!

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 5:30pm From: RagnarR in SF Bay

Thanks a lot. I just saw that my station (KZSU, Stanford) has 4 David Hykes CDs. Was he also the person who talked to about "healing music" and its perception?

Mon Feb. 4, 2008 5:35pm From: Irene

That's David. Lovely stuff!
