Playlist for This Is the Modern World with Trouble - September 4, 2008

Thursdays 9am - Noon on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:04am From: Bad Ronald

Morning Trouble!

Thu. 9/4/08 9:08am From: 55fps

Space is the place. Good morning Trouble & listeners from all galaxies.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:11am From: lucienogene

je suis angry i d ont like la pou of sarkozy

Thu. 9/4/08 9:19am From: trouble

good morning!

Thu. 9/4/08 9:24am From: dale

that last song with the bit of ad copy reminded me of a commercial that the ad agency creates in Putney Swope. find it if you haven't seen it...

Thu. 9/4/08 9:28am From: gumby

Birds on the moon? What the hey?

Thu. 9/4/08 9:31am From: listener mark

Good morning trouble, good morning everyone

Thu. 9/4/08 9:34am From: Jenniqua

Bonne matin Trouble! I am going to pop some aspirin with you as I am hung over as well from last night's spastic speech making.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:40am From: 55fps

If the conventions get me down, I try to recall Borat's speech at the rodeo to remind me of the absurdity of it all.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:41am From: DJ Keili's Mom

Great show! Love it!

Thu. 9/4/08 9:44am From: Ken

Loved! that Divine comedy song.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:44am From: sebastian in santiago

buenos dias ;)

Thu. 9/4/08 9:45am From: PodSean

....bought the Paavoharju from aquarius a few weeks ago. It's great. One of my favorites this year so far.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:45am From: Keili's Mom

Yeah! Me too! Re: Divine Comedy.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:47am From: gumby

buenos dias sebastian! Is that Santiago Chile?

Thu. 9/4/08 9:49am From: sebastian in santiago

SCL, yes. neither cuba nor compostela.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:52am From: DJ Keili's Mom

Oye! Que onda! Somos Chilenos! Fuimos a Punta Arenas y Valparaiso el ano pasado.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:52am From: gumby

Mrs. Gumby says Chile is very nice. I have to get there with her sometime. Once the little chips off the old clay block vamanos para universidad.

Thu. 9/4/08 9:56am From: listener mark

el ano pasado is being translated very peculiar on babel fish

Thu. 9/4/08 10:01am From: DJ Keili's Mom

HAHAHA! I just did it! That's hilarious. I said, "We are Chilean. We went to Punta Arenas and Valapariso last year" But I love what Babel Fish says it means.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:01am From: sebastian in santiago

"it's a nice place to visit and an even nicer place to leave". watch your EÑES!

Thu. 9/4/08 10:02am From: listener mark

It hears! That wave! We are Chilean! We went to End Arenas and Valparaiso the past anus.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:04am From: Jenniqua

I am loving this playlist Trouble. No aspirin required for me. The Triplets are the ultimate pain killer.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:04am From: DJ Keili's Mom

"Oye! Que onda" is just like saying, "Hey! What's going on!" My spelling is bad though.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:05am From: DJ Keili's Mom

This playlist is a work of art. I have to go dance with the baby. Have a nice day everyone!

Thu. 9/4/08 10:06am From: gumby

Enjoy your baby dance!!!! La vida loco es muy hermosa!

Thu. 9/4/08 10:17am From: jeanine

to the chileans who are apparently on this board right now-- i'm going to be spending three months (january-april) in Chillan, which is 5 hours south of Santiago. Anyone have any experiences there?

Thu. 9/4/08 10:32am From: sebastian in santiago

why on earh are you going to spend three months there??? do you work in agriculture? great sausage, though ;)

Thu. 9/4/08 10:38am From: jeanine

actually, yes! I'm going to be working on an organic berry farm about 30km from the city. Is the area pretty at least?

Thu. 9/4/08 10:45am From: mark

organic berry farm? you bloody hippy

Thu. 9/4/08 10:47am From: trouble

you go girl!

Thu. 9/4/08 10:48am From: Jenniqua

You must be psychic Trouble. I'm currently working on a David Bowie illustration and you played this wonderful song. Lovin' it!!!

Thu. 9/4/08 10:50am From: jeanine

All I know is picking strawberries in Chile will be way more awesome than shoveling snow in Massachusetts..

Thu. 9/4/08 10:52am From: gumby

jeanine
I saw that episode on Arnold (the football headed kid) it didn't turn out to good for him, indentured servitude and all.
Just kidding actually. I agree with trouble, YOU GO!!! To sample the smells & tastes of the big blue marble from the ground up, is truly to live.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:54am From: sebastian in santiago

the countryside is beautiful jeanine. and heck, you're right. you'll be under the southern summer sun while your friends are up to the neck in snow.

Thu. 9/4/08 10:56am From: mark

your right i'm just jealous, i'm just not sure about all this organic stuff, if there had been no green revolution there would be half as much food about

Thu. 9/4/08 10:58am From: gumby

And half as many people!!!!!!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:04am From: gumby

Instead of watching the convention last night I listened to Fabio's show and read about South American indigineous history. The book 1491 is well written and has some very interesting views on the sustainable agriculture of the ancient cultures. Growing beans and corn together to supplement and not destroy the soil is a bit of brilliance we need to revisit. THERE IS TONS OF UNLEARNING TO DO!!!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:06am From: Lou

preach on sistah...hypocrisy is part of their M O

Thu. 9/4/08 11:07am From: jeanine

amen! sustainable agriculture is the only way we're gonna sustain the human race, methinks

Thu. 9/4/08 11:07am From: listener mark

it's always darkest just before it goes completely black

Thu. 9/4/08 11:10am From: mark

yeah i'm sure progress can be made, and chemicals are not the only answer but its a bit rich hearing it from some rich yank who's never been hungry in their life, are there any large scale examples of comparable yields or is it all theory?

Thu. 9/4/08 11:12am From: Parq

I'm far too accustomed to the GOP's baldfaced duplicity to be shocked by it any more. What drops my jaw open is the pass they get on it. NPR fawned over Palin this morning like she was a Russian ballet star, and if they took that tone, I can only imagine what the rest of them (the "liberal media", doncha understand) were saying.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:13am From: dc pat

Actually it's the non-rich, non-yank subsistence farmers that can benefit from not having to buy fertilizers, pesticides, etc..

Thu. 9/4/08 11:14am From: mark

glad i don't live in US, 1 billion dollar election, whats going on there?

Thu. 9/4/08 11:14am From: Mike in S. California

I wish for once everyone would stay home on election day and we'd finally see as a country that there's something horribly wrong with electing a rich, elite minority to make decisions on how the rest of us will live. I'm awfully embarrassed as an adult to be "An American" and I wasn't like that as a child.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:16am From: dc pat

I noticed that too Parq. I'd like to ask Palin how abstinence-only sex education is going over in her house these days.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:18am From: mark

if u don't use $50 of fertilizers, pesticides, e.t.c. but then produce $100 less crop your not much better off...

Thu. 9/4/08 11:19am From: Parq

This Dylan cover is everything great about French pop music.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:20am From: Jenniqua

Really appropriate song.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:21am From: Sean Daily

What's this "liberal media" people keep harping on about, Parq? Cos I've looked around, and I ain't seen it...

Thu. 9/4/08 11:21am From: lucienogene from france

les chanteuses fran&ccedil;aises n'ont pas de voies.;;;;BiZ

Thu. 9/4/08 11:21am From: dc pat

I'm not saying get rid of fertilizers/pesticides. The problem is non-organic versions are big business and are largely unaffordable by poor farmers anyway.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:22am From: gumby

Ah chaos, I love it when that happens to the posts.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:23am From: dc pat

Me too--everyone should have to address 3 topics at once.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:23am From: Barry

As a former Alaskan, I wouldn't worry about Palin. Every conservative republican up there in the 90's belonged to the secessionist party - it was in, so unless someone is paid off - always a possibility in Alaska - we will find that she wanted Alaska to leave the union as little as ten years ago - this in a candidate from the party of Lincoln.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:24am From: Mike in S. California

1. Vote "None of the Above."
2. Try Vegan, you might like it.
3. Ignore my suggestions and think for yourself.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:26am From: mark

your right, we'll all have to vegans in the future, just don't pretend its nice

Thu. 9/4/08 11:26am From: Parq

Sean, the liberal media is [sic] everywhere, doncha realize? Just like those liberals who have been running Washington for the last eight years. Romney said so last night, and why would he lie?

Thu. 9/4/08 11:27am From: mark

eating abit of ham at the moment and its bloody lovely

Thu. 9/4/08 11:27am From: gumby

1. Vote with your conscience even if it's the legalize pot guy.
2. Sample all things edible, it's more global.
3. I concur with Mike in S. Calli.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:28am From: Homer Simpson

Ham HMMMMMM.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:28am From: Parq

And I buy as much of my food from farm markets as I can, and -- what was the third topic? -- oh yeh, my idea of "sexy singles" is Francoise Hardy 45s.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:29am From: Homer Too

Nummm, All things edible....drooool!!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:30am From: Bad Ronald

I want beer!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:30am From: dc pat

2. farm markets cheese
C. Palin = Steppford wife
1.5 Gang of 4!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:32am From: GP

Parq....Francoise Hardy is worthy of a Homer Drool salute!

Morning all, good morning to Trouble.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:32am From: gumby

gang of 4= OWWW, OWWW, OOOH!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:33am From: Parq

I thought that, the other night, the Ex displayed a glorious fury very similar to what I remember from the Go4's shows.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:34am From: 55fps

a. Wendy's 'meatanarian' commercial
b. Palin's got that 'hot for teacher' look
c. record "How To Succeed In Business w/out Really Trying' at noon

Thu. 9/4/08 11:36am From: Pengwag

I only eat what I grow or buy in the store.
Palin should be made to eat Bear.
....The right to arm Bears.... discuss

Thu. 9/4/08 11:37am From: gumby

On the Ex & Getachew. I loved the mix of fury and furriness in the music. Elephant trombones and that lilting little walk around melody Getachew played it just added to the diversity.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:39am From: Sean Daily

I didn't watch the RNC last night. I was at the weekly Empires of Chivalry and Steel event here in Las Vegas. Did you know you can hit people with SWORDS at those things? That trumps a bunch of old white Republicans (and one young and dangerously underqualified Republican) anytime.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:39am From: dc pat

How about that clarinet player??--that guy sounded like whole jungle

Thu. 9/4/08 11:41am From: gumby

I was too far away to see what he was playing, but he got some nice birdesque tones out of there. Also Parq the crunchy guitar chords are always wonderful fury amidst the calm & chaos.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:41am From: Mike in S. California

"Weeeeee spell trouble: T-R-O-U-B-B-B-L-E!" - (((Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks)))

Thu. 9/4/08 11:44am From: dc pat

he was getting birds but also elephants and monkeys and such

Thu. 9/4/08 11:46am From: Parq

Yeh, the clarinet solo was one of the high points of the set. And, as I've said elsewhere, the bass player was the heart and soul of the whole thing.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:52am From: GP

Sean,
What is that? Some kind of Medieval Times Place that fosters audience participation ( bringing back memory of "The Cable Guy").

Thu. 9/4/08 11:53am From: gumby

Thanks for the tunes and thoughts trouble, thanks for the thoughts everyone. Freeform music and thoughts FOREVER!!!!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:55am From: GP

Free Freakin form from fantastic fabulous Trouble

Thu. 9/4/08 11:56am From: Parq

Lovely show and great on-line conversation, as always.

Thu. 9/4/08 11:56am From: Freewheeling Franklin

F-yeah!

Thu. 9/4/08 11:59am From: dc pat

cheers freedom-lovers.

Thu. 9/4/08 12:00pm From: Pengwag

Great show

Thu. 9/4/08 12:03pm From: Sean Daily

GP, it's not Medieval Times. It's more like a club for lunatics. It's actually like the Society for Creative Anachronism. You make your own armor and, often, your own weapons (shinai (sp?), rapier and blunted steel) and then whack the hell out of each other. I'm not involved yet, but I know the basics.

Thu. 9/4/08 7:15pm From: mike tp
