Listener comments!

Fri. 2/27/09 10:57am From: Sean Daily

I just wanted to say that I am feeling much better - just a little bit weird -now that I am ouf the facility where the treatment I received was really good and, so far, effective. This is the first Playlist I have been on since getting released and doctors are hopeful that I will not have a relapse. As you know my issue was the obession, nay compulsion, to get on any comments board - eapecially at WFMU - and write the "W. H." words. So far I am staying strong. As Doctor Wright at the Institute said; one day at a time Sean and one playlist comment board at a time. Hey Billy can you play "Keep Ya Head Up" by 2Pac for me? thanks - And can you other regular commenters help me be strong and not be enablers. Lets all quit the redundant chlldlike "W.H." words together.

Hey Billy Jam!1Hey hey everyone. Rough week, layoffs galore at my company. I survived, please pass me a blunt , I need it.

Fri. 2/27/09 2:24pm From: Lisa M.

Hmm.. request s, let me think..

Fri. 2/27/09 2:31pm From: Lisa M.

How about Man Parrish . Hip Hop be Bop. I have been doing a lot of research for the film, and Im reminded of a lot of songs I really loved..

Fri. 2/27/09 3:03pm From: Cecile

Guns, TVs, VCRs, Billy Jam is the Radio Star!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:05pm From: zedprophfer

billy jam killed the video star

Fri. 2/27/09 3:05pm From: Bad Ronald

Hola muchachos!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:06pm From: Cecile

Bad Ron's here, the party can start! ;)

Fri. 2/27/09 3:10pm From: Bad Ronald

Love the Euro-dance!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:19pm From: Lisa M.

a little hercules and Love Affair , perhaps, Billy

Fri. 2/27/09 3:21pm From: north guinea hills

2009 sounds a lot like 2005, and i like it!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:24pm From: Ike

Yikes, can't agree on H&LA. H&LA is only good on the tracks without that whiny twit Antony and his overrated squeaky wavery voice from hell. HATE.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:25pm From: Cecile

I need this Gui Boratto disc like right now

Fri. 2/27/09 3:26pm From: sean808080

finally a reason to turn my speakers up all day...it started with the hellfire preacher talk. great stuff.. http://sean808080.com

Fri. 2/27/09 3:27pm From: Ike

Oh and I liked that Whip track. I heard "Trash" by the Whip a lot last year on another station. Repetitive and strangely addictive.

Is Lady Sovereign going soft on us? Gotta love her accent.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:32pm From: Lisa M.

Thanks Ike, but that was directed at Billy:-)

Fri. 2/27/09 3:34pm From: Ike

Hey, free speech Lisa! I'm very opinionated and have to interject obnoxiously when anyone mentions anything to do with Antony. Hmmm, ihateantony.com is still available. Time to get out my credit card.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:36pm From: LIsa M.

Ok I see where this going, Billy keep playing the funky tunes.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:36pm From: north guinea hills

I actually like Scott Walker better then Antony, and that's saying something coming from me. I should like him, but i just don't get it........

Fri. 2/27/09 3:36pm From: Lisa M.

Haha! Thank you Billy, and you picked one of my favorites!!!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:36pm From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first... HEY! That first comment isn't my first comment! Although it does sound like something that would have happened to me... minus the electroshock therapy and my blazing space Amazon UFO-intensive escape...

Anyway... Woo hoo!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:37pm From: Lisa M.

wink wink Billy:-)

Fri. 2/27/09 3:39pm From: Ike

On the other hand, maybe I'll give that $6.74 to FMU instead. Along with almost everything else in my wallet. Save your pennies folks! FMU 'thons are great.

That first comment is pretty awesome. Is the Billy Jam comments section open 24/7 for our convenience or what?

Fri. 2/27/09 3:40pm From: Lisa M

Thank you Mr. Jam!!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:41pm From: Cecile

Do you have "Watch them Come" which is based on this sample?

Fri. 2/27/09 3:41pm From: Cecile

Fri. 2/27/09 3:42pm From: anne

Fri. 2/27/09 3:46pm From: Cecile

House lovers, where can I find MP3s or discs of the really classic stuff?

Fri. 2/27/09 3:47pm From: Cecile

wow! The Glitter Band! Takes me back!

Fri. 2/27/09 3:47pm From: postmanpaul

we will continue to be supportive sean. these are obviously difficult times.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:49pm From: annie

PMP, you done with your painting so soon.?? and yes i did

Fri. 2/27/09 3:49pm From: Lisa M.

C, I have been purchasing House Music Mp3's from Beatport.com. For 12 ", if the classic stuff, since all the vinyls stores are closed in NYC, I have been going the Ebay.Also record collectors shows have been pretty lucky for me.

Fri. 2/27/09 3:50pm From: zedprophfer

The Glitter Band Makes You Blind

Fri. 2/27/09 3:54pm From: Cecile

Fri. 2/27/09 3:56pm From: Ike

Fri. 2/27/09 3:57pm From: annie

Fri. 2/27/09 3:58pm From: Cecile

that Soft Cell record is so great.
And the video of that Soft Cell record is pretty great, too. They did videos for pretty much every song on the record.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:00pm From: postmanpaul

Fri. 2/27/09 4:01pm From: Cecile

Fri. 2/27/09 4:03pm From: Jessica

Yeeeeeaaaahhh.
A little acupuncture, a little acid groove: mm, that's some mighty fine gateway to the weekend.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:03pm From: annie

for this i turned up the volume... aaahhhh

Fri. 2/27/09 4:04pm From: Parq

Didn't some pre-teen hearthrob have an extremely minor hit with "Rock On" in the 90s? I vaguely remember my daughter watching a video, which had some half-decent dancing.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:05pm From: Cecile

Yes, Michael Damian, and I believe it was the late 80s or early 90s. He was on General Hospital or something.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:15pm From: zedprophfer

great remix!

Fri. 2/27/09 4:27pm From: Tall Paul

Yo Bill, how is the form? Hope all is good with you. Wishing you a great weekend. Can you play some Lunatik or Lucky Dube? Thanks peace one love Paul

Fri. 2/27/09 4:37pm From: Lisa M.

Thank you Billy Jam, as usual for providing great tunes to start my Friday right. BTW, will be in the Bay area end of March, chat later....

Fri. 2/27/09 4:43pm From: Jessica

It was a fine anthem for growing up in SF, back the, but I like it better this way.
Rawk.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:49pm From: B-Z

Rawk and the Bay Area make me think of listening to the Lobster Breakfast.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:50pm From: Ismael

Fri. 2/27/09 4:50pm From: postmanpaul

Fri. 2/27/09 4:50pm From: Joe

Nate has always been, in my opinion, the king of the Doggs.

Fri. 2/27/09 4:52pm From: Cecile

aw, man! Canada in the house - Nick Gilder and the Guess Who...

Fri. 2/27/09 4:58pm From: Joe

Hip-Hop Dragon Ball Z reference... where's Sean Daily? He should be on top of this.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:00pm From: Cecile

Brother Ali used to ride my bus sometimes in Mpls. Ya couldn't miss him. Glad he's doing well.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:04pm From: Sean Daily

Are you challenging me to a duel, Joe! Because you may be the stronger fighter but it is not the strength of the fighter that determines who will win a duel but the size of his heart and since you are evil and I am good and good always triumphs over evil then, ergo, I shall defeat you!

KAMEHAMEHA WAAAAAAAAVE!

Fri. 2/27/09 5:12pm From: Joe

Oh no, now I have to lay on the ground moaning in pain for 3 episodes.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:12pm From: billlyjam

Hi all......this show is dedicated to two great WFMU peeps. Ike who is perhaps one of the most dedicated and supportive listeners of the station and who also volunteers here from time to time including during the Marathon + also to another volunteer Chad who does more shit behind the scenes than five average FMUers

Fri. 2/27/09 5:13pm From: Parq

Yay Chadsworth! Your fans are delighted to see you celebrated.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:16pm From: Cecile

SAINTS - is this from the '74 sessions?

Fri. 2/27/09 5:16pm From: Sean Daily

Now I shall destroy the core of the planet with my imagination-throttling Super Saiyen powers so that it will explode in less than five minutes... which is funny, because we're going to be talking about it for the next five or six episodes!

Urk... having another flashback...

Fri. 2/27/09 5:18pm From: Cecile

It is!!!!!
That is such a great, underrated disc.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:18pm From: chadsey

Thanks Parq and Billy.
On Behalf of the group and myself...

Fri. 2/27/09 5:20pm From: Cecile

YEAH HUP.

Got any lime spiders?

Fri. 2/27/09 5:20pm From: Joe

minus 5 nerd points for not spelling it the otaku way...

also, much respect to his Chadleyness.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:22pm From: Cecile

SLADEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Fri. 2/27/09 5:24pm From: Cecile

well, that was an-old school WCBN-FM style transition I used to do myself years ago...

Fri. 2/27/09 5:28pm From: Cecile

Hey, do you have "O" by Adonis? That's some weird-ass early house...

Fri. 2/27/09 5:29pm From: Todd 76%

Mr. Jam
Thanks for serving this wide selection of tasties on the same plate - you got house all over my punk rock.
Might hafta go home and have Phuture for desert!

Fri. 2/27/09 5:42pm From: Jessica

Holy frack: so tasty!

Fri. 2/27/09 5:51pm From: Tall Paul

Now thisis where the party is at. Keep it going all night!

Fri. 2/27/09 5:55pm From: Jessica

I said weirdo. I said whatchoowant.

Fri. 2/27/09 5:58pm From: Ike

Wow, that's so nice! Thanks Billy.

Sat. 2/28/09 11:32am From: billlyjam

Thanks to everyone for listening to this show and to WFMU in general. As you well know our big annual two-week fundraising Marathon kicks off on Monday March 2nd and this year we really need major love. WFMU is unlike any other radio station out there and that is because it operates independently based on listener donations - 100% Most freeform college radio stations are partly listener sponsored but also governed by their universities who - depending on if it is a Jesuit run college or a UC system school - have certain demands on said station. Such demands or rules result in controlling outside forces - things like broadcasting every school team's women's basketball game or worse.....This type of bullshit don't happen @ WFMU. So let's all try and keep it this way by remembering to support during the 2009 Marathon. >>>>Special shout out to IKE and to CHAD - both dedicated WFMU listeners and volunteers - to whom this show is dedicated.....Also shout out to Timi D... who died or fell off the earth or sumthin' Also shout out to DJ Spiderman, Sahak, and Stingy D - all former listeners/commentors who disappeared in recent times - Ye'all are missed.....>>>Also shout out to Evan Funk Davies whose Tuesday night show (11PM - 2AM following Tom Scharpling) is must-hear material. From listening to it this week I ended up on a Nick Gilder/Hot Child In The City thread leading me to "Dick The Bard" (the name I christened him with) who I sampled and replayed. By the way to hear a string of Nick Gilder songs check out the opening set of an EVAN FUNK DAVIES show from two years ago. Link = EFD show http://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/24152 >>>The photo at top of Playlist was taken out in the BayView/Hunters Point district of San Francisco a couple of weeks or so ago. It is down by the Hunters Point Shipyard - formerly run by the US Army or Navy but turned over to artists to live in its lovely old buildings - although the time is ticking on their remaining there as they are all being kicked out - bummer. Over by one of these spaces (where some friiends of mine are based) there are old pianos left outside to become beautifully weather beaten. Some, despite the wear and tear of several winters by the water, are still semi-functional. The one in picture is not but isn't it a beauty? - >>>>>>March 27th this show will return to Ireland for a second live remote broadcast.....It will be LIVE IN LIMERICK...go to the "Upcoming" section of this website to find details......PEACE - billy "where da weed at" jam
