Listener comments!

Wed. 2/11/09 3:25pm From: Ghengis Jung

What was the trumpet thing that played early on?

Wed. 2/11/09 3:25pm From: dc pat

So, Irwin...quoting FDR, huh?

Wed. 2/11/09 3:25pm From: Carmichael

Come on! Do I really have the first comment?!?

Wed. 2/11/09 3:26pm From: Jonathan Marx

Anyone else still got Corn Weenie on the brain?

Wed. 2/11/09 3:26pm From: Carmichael

SHHHH!!!!!!!

Wed. 2/11/09 3:28pm From: Parq

Hmm, another cover of "Friends" - I only knew abut Moloko's.

Wed. 2/11/09 3:28pm From: Ghengis Jung

I didn't...

Wed. 2/11/09 3:33pm From: Mac

James Gang!

Wed. 2/11/09 3:37pm From: annie

it is a damn beautiful day out there, temps inside are the same as outside.. 53!

Wed. 2/11/09 3:39pm From: BSI

try some alternate nostril breathing!

Wed. 2/11/09 3:46pm From: NS Andy

Gotta go!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:06pm From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:07pm From: Corn Weenie

Really, really!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:08pm From: Sean Daily

"While San Andreas cleared her throat". Nice.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:10pm From: Doctor Who

What are YOU doing here?

Wed. 2/11/09 4:17pm From: Sawyer

Son of a BITCH.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:18pm From: Whatsergolden

Whoa!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:20pm From: C

Muzak just died

Wed. 2/11/09 4:21pm From: Parq

Is it okay for me to say I like this Steve Miller Band stuff much more than the 70s and 80s stuff that made the charts?

Wed. 2/11/09 4:23pm From: Sean Daily

No it's not, Parq! You know why? Because I'm not here to make friends!

And I'm probably succeeding admirably in my quest.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:24pm From: Everybody

But something didn't touch me deep inside, the day the Muuuuuzak died.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:30pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

speak Enlish, Klaus.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:31pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

yes, let's all spake enlish

Wed. 2/11/09 4:33pm From: Carmichael

Everybody, start in doin' the Twizzle ....

Aah, memories of Dick Van Dyke and that MILFy Laura Petrie.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:36pm From: Buddy Sorrell

Hey, she was a Petrie DISH!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:37pm From: Carmichael

Easy there Buddy, Pickles might get mad at ya ...

Wed. 2/11/09 4:40pm From: Sally Rogers

The last time a guy remembered me he had to go see a shrink for two months.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:41pm From: Buddy

And every time a guy looks at you, Sal, SOMETHING shrinks for at LEAST two months!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:44pm From: SmallyBiggs

This song is too Fin' cute!!!!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:45pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

I'm takin' a dive!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:46pm From: SmallyBiggs

"I believe in you", that is.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:46pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

Oh, the ELO cover is way cuter!

Wed. 2/11/09 4:47pm From: Parq

Properly engineered and mastered, this version of "Livin' Thing" would probably be better than the original.

Wed. 2/11/09 4:50pm From: still b/p

If I was properly engineered and mastered, I wonder if...

Wed. 2/11/09 4:50pm From: SmallyBiggs

Where can hear this ELO cover?

Wed. 2/11/09 4:51pm From: Sean Daily

Irwin, do you have anything from The Fireman?

Wed. 2/11/09 4:52pm From: Carmichael

Rock rock,
Rock'n'Roll High School,
Rock rock
Rock'n'Roll High School

Wed. 2/11/09 4:55pm From: Parq

Smally, a little googling reveals that Dondero High was in Royal Oaks MI, and that Glenn Frey is an alum. Even better, their annual Pop Concert Albums, including the 2001 one, are available for free download from the Comfort Stand web site. What would we do without Comfort Stand?

(Can you tell how bored I am with the work on my desk?)

Wed. 2/11/09 4:58pm From: Carmichael

Irwin,

If you could find the time to serenade us with some Martin Newell, I would place you prominently in my will.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:00pm From: Irwin

Easy! Coming up within the hawf 'our.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:10pm From: Jimmy Safechuck

These guys (Gamelan Jegog Werdi Sentana) rock harder than the Dondero High School Band, even, if such a thing is possible.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:11pm From: Carmichael

Thanks! You're an On Air Personality's On Air Personality.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:13pm From: claire

Hello!
Can you throw in some Cafe Tacuba?

Wed. 2/11/09 5:14pm From: Sticky

How about The Shaggs?

Wed. 2/11/09 5:17pm From: John

Y. Bhekhirst?!

Wed. 2/11/09 5:17pm From: Laura L

Helge Schneider?

Wed. 2/11/09 5:21pm From: Irwin

I'll play Helge for ya, Laur, only if you come to Ken's roast.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:22pm From: texas scott

"Cease trying to forgive those who wronged you. Aim to kill the self within, not until then will you find there is nothing that even remembers the injury."
just thought of that.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:23pm From: Carmichael

Y Knot Bhekhirst?!?

Wed. 2/11/09 5:26pm From: Li'l Yung Biggie Bastard

Y Knot? Bhekcause I said so!! Now go to your room!

Wed. 2/11/09 5:27pm From: Laura L

Damn it all, I can't go--am obliged to go to yet another person's half-century b.d. celebration tonight. I would if it were not for that--please give the old man a hard time! He should be made to do Molly Shannon's Sally O'Malley routine.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:28pm From: Irwin

You shall go to bed without your Helge, dearie.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:29pm From: Irwin

Let me re-phrase that ....

Wed. 2/11/09 5:34pm From: Carmichael

Awesome! Sounds a little like Urban Turban.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:35pm From: Sean Daily

You know, for a short time there in the 1920s, you could actually get chicks with a uke. Whatever happened to those halcyon days?

Wed. 2/11/09 5:39pm From: Carmichael

In the summer, the raccoon coats began to emanate something fierce. And after WWI, "The Maginot Line" went out of style and the dames started swooning over that pretty-boy wuss Rudy Vallee.

The Day the Music Died.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:46pm From: Laura L

Aw, I should have remembered to ask for Blossom Dearie. R.I.P., Dearie.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:50pm From: Parq

Yeah, what a shame about Blossom. I don't know whether or not she ever knew about FMU, but she should have, coz most of what I know of her work, I know from listening right here.

Wed. 2/11/09 5:53pm From: Laura L

Beautiful photo of her accompanies L.A. Times obit.
http://www.latimes.com/news/obituaries/la-me-blossom-dearie9-2009feb09,0,4427856.story

Wed. 2/11/09 5:56pm From: Parq

Laura speaks the truth; that photo is terrific. Thanks for that, Miss L!

Wed. 2/11/09 5:58pm From: Laura L

What a class act she was. I saw her perform in NYC--age 70 somethin. Excellent, naturally.
