Thu. 4/9/09 9:08am From: PMD

I got to work early today and didn't realize it was before 9:00 - was quite surprised at what I heard.
Mornin' all...

Thu. 4/9/09 9:10am From: annie

Thu. 4/9/09 9:10am From: jaypee

Good morning, everyone. I'm groggy.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:12am From: listener mark

Thu. 4/9/09 9:13am From: Karen in Sleepy Hollow

I'm with Annie, I love that movie!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:14am From: annie

trouble, you win!!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:15am From: Parq

"I got to work early today" is one of the things you're least likely to hear me utter, along with "I told her 12 times was my limit but she begged me for more", and "I'm voting Republican".

Thu. 4/9/09 9:18am From: PMD

Well, Parq, I do get to leave early then, so it's not so bad. And yes, I was going to say I love Wings of Desire too...

Thu. 4/9/09 9:18am From: bill w

Good day, Trouble... I will be trying to write about an Argentine lesbian crime thriller to your accompaniment. I'll let you know the results.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:19am From: annie

Thu. 4/9/09 9:32am From: PMD

I was so sad I didn't win this CD...

Thu. 4/9/09 9:32am From: Parq

I'm sorry, is Icepack in the house? Hya, kid, you're going to do a set today, I hope.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:37am From: PKNY

"Superpeople"! The best Curtis Mayfield knockoff ever, so dope.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:42am From: annie

that's almost as good as finding a stash of goofus and gallant hidden inside highlights!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:43am From: sugarwolf

I was going to say, they still publish Cricket??

Thu. 4/9/09 9:44am From: listener mark

My parents named me 'Mark' because it was easy to spell. They were hedging their bets, so to speak.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:46am From: bill w

This is Trouble's scheme to keep Icepack busy til college.

I wish I had my old issues of CRACKED to donate.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:47am From: Matt

That icy demons number was fun.

Thu. 4/9/09 9:49am From: Tom

Desmond Dekker baby!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:50am From: Shana

Desmond Dekker: yesssssss!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:53am From: chris

Morning Trouble

Thu. 4/9/09 9:56am From: dale

miss Wanda really rocks when she wants to

Thu. 4/9/09 9:56am From: chris

Let's see a show of hands: how many listeners have a crush on Trouble?

Thu. 4/9/09 9:57am From: Cecile

I want trouble to be one of my BFFs, does that count?

Thu. 4/9/09 9:57am From: annie

my hand is up!!

Thu. 4/9/09 9:59am From: chris

Yes I think that counts Cecile

Thu. 4/9/09 9:59am From: Cecile

Trouble, did 'FMU get the latest Bats disc? And can you play "Broken Path" from it?

Thu. 4/9/09 9:59am From: Cecile

Oh, cool.
I didn't want anything slashy there.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:00am From: sugarwolf

Serge G would have been 81 last week!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:00am From: texas scott

ah,Franciose......

morning trouble and the rest!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:01am From: chris

What is it with Wanda J and whirlpools and funnels?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:01am From: Cecile

I hear Peter Falk is struggling with Alzheimer's. I'm sad, if that's true.
I love his autobio "And just one more thing"

Thu. 4/9/09 10:02am From: bill w

did Wanda go in the Hall of Fame this year?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:02am From: Freud

I can take a guess...

Thu. 4/9/09 10:03am From: annie

i bet it's a great book cecile...

Thu. 4/9/09 10:05am From: Parq

Hand in the air. And Wanda J too. Karin L sounds pretty cute, while we're at it.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:05am From: Cecile

it is! It's just anecdotes, tons of them. Photos, some of his very good nude drawings.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:07am From: annie

i'll have to find it somehow..

Thu. 4/9/09 10:07am From: dale

Thu. 4/9/09 10:15am From: Cecile

If you don't play Boom by you know who, trouble... you will make the boom king cry

Thu. 4/9/09 10:17am From: Pearly Sweets

I have a feeling there might be some Flight of the Conchords coming up...

Thu. 4/9/09 10:18am From: Pearly Sweets

Man... my chat not auto updating made me miss Cecile's on-point comment.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:18am From: Ladies of the World

Thu. 4/9/09 10:19am From: Cecile

TROUBLE YOU TEASE

Thu. 4/9/09 10:19am From: annie

i am so not-liking this pause feature... what up with that anyway?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:19am From: sugarwolf

I'm guessing no Paul Lekakis?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:21am From: Boom King

*sobs*

Thu. 4/9/09 10:24am From: gumby

Love the BOOM theme set.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:26am From: gumby

I hope there's room for "Chick-A-Boom" in the big BOOM bombast! Doncha just love it?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:28am From: Listener Dave from NH

This track's on the super-outstanding mixtape Santogold did with Diplo.
This set is winning hard.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:29am From: Boom King

It is pretty great, I must admit.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:31am From: Richard

Play the reggae Dj, Play the Reggae!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:31am From: gumby

I do daddy, 'deed I do!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:31am From: sweet p

Thu. 4/9/09 10:33am From: Boom King

Who's a BOOM gotta BOOM to get some BOOM around here?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:35am From: Ken From Hyde Park

This is a completely boombastic set here today. It's really fantastic.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:36am From: Billy Jam

Thu. 4/9/09 10:36am From: wonderrful!!!!

Billy Jam!
JINX!
I can't wait!
Where can you get his new CD?

Thu. 4/9/09 10:37am From: Parq

Man, did I have a tough time logging on at work today! Missed most of the Booms. I'm thinkin' Lizzy and Keili.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:39am From: no, not really

Ow, my boomeritis

Thu. 4/9/09 10:41am From: Laurie

DJ Icepack sounds like a young man now!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:42am From: Boom King

I'm not crying, I'm just cutting onions for a lasgna. For one.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:52am From: Cecile

LOVE this song.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:52am From: v k

LOVE this song (too)

Thu. 4/9/09 10:52am From: Carmichael

Chairmen of the Board?? My playlist is behind.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:52am From: annie

it just gets better and better.... this must be heaven..

Thu. 4/9/09 10:52am From: Cecile

*does the stroll to the Chairmen*

Thu. 4/9/09 10:53am From: Cecile

Chairmen had a really deep catalog of good songs, but this is still their best...

Thu. 4/9/09 10:54am From: Angels

Yes., Annie You can tell because we're doin' it in the clouds

Thu. 4/9/09 10:54am From: Carmichael

Jeezus, I actually have this 45. And yes, Wanda Jackson just went into the Hall of Fame. And she'll be in Sacramento in May! Now if only we can get the Collins Kids to tour.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:54am From: gumby

I'm with all the lovers of this tune out there.
The silent boom of the drawn out pleading ooomph. Heavy, heavy. A ton of tune there.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:54am From: Parq

Love that "B-r-r-r-r-d-p" that tags the vamp line.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:55am From: Carmichael

Oh BTW, Hi Trouble! I also have a crush on your voice .....

Thu. 4/9/09 10:56am From: Michael

I just wrote an email that began: Good morning, I'm having trouble...

Thu. 4/9/09 10:56am From: Cecile

Yeah, Parq, I read a review somewhere where the writer theorized it was General Johnson's (the CoTB lead singer's) way of paying tribute to Billy Stewart.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:58am From: still b/p

Distracted myself right outa the first couple hours of this show. Double double damn! ... and quick catch-up:
- Don't crime for me, Argentina.
- Crush hand reachin' high for Trouble.
- Friends (when we were teenagers) used to threaten me with exclusion from the smoke passin' circle unless I did my Columbo imitation.
- Boom with a view!
- Always echo the Chairmen's "Brrrrrrrdp"!

Good morning, good music.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:58am From: Jess

Ah hah! We get some FotC, but not the FotC we expected!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:59am From: Cecile

nice save!

Thu. 4/9/09 10:59am From: Carmichael

They'll be live in Winston Salem on 4/11, if anyone's near there.

Thu. 4/9/09 10:59am From: annie

bp- helluva recap!!!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:01am From: Rolling Stones

You can't always get the FotC you want, but if you try sometimes you get the FotC that you need.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:02am From: ?

New Zealand, Check'n in

Thu. 4/9/09 11:03am From: Pearly Sweets

You can get Andy Breckman to come in and help you with that show.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:05am From: Cecile

Pearl, most of us oldsters could do that show in our sleep and have it be actually really good.

Trouble...call us!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:06am From: Carmichael

Pearly, bite your tongue. He wandered into the end of Irwin's show, and I told him to go straight to hell.

Then I went home and turned on some Jackson Browne.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:06am From: Pearly Sweets

That's the beauty of music, is any decade has its great music. And every decade has Jackson Browne.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:07am From: Laurie

The lead singer of the Blow Up sounds a bit like Mac McCaughan, no?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:08am From: annie

, see i turned the radio off after '75 or so.. didn't turn it back on til the advent of mtv.. or so.. and boom boom is fine with me ,no schmaltz. ok??

Thu. 4/9/09 11:08am From: Carmichael

I have the video of the Vogues singing 5 O'Clock World, one of my favorites of that genre. Four guys, sweaters, singing, like birds.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:08am From: Parq

Carm, when I first read your post, I thought you had said that you went home and burned some Jackson Brown. That, I coulda gotten behind.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:08am From: Pearly Sweets

You know, though, Browne might have some really good songs out there... I mean Van Morrison does have "You Have Ringworm"

Thu. 4/9/09 11:09am From: Carmichael

Pearly, That was a joke. I made a funny. There are some things I will NEVER do.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:09am From: still b/p

Funny how many Andy entries, from perfectly reputable artists, ain't exactly hateworthy, just blank and tired, but other unlikely 70s stuff that used to make me clenchy and murder-eyed, from the Stylistics to disco mischief, is now a frivolicious hoot to sing in my kitchen

Thu. 4/9/09 11:10am From: Parq

"You Have Ringworm" is a *classic*. That's the album Van should be touring, instead of this boomer-pandering Astral Weeks bit.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:11am From: Carmichael

Annie, we're musical soulmates. I turned the dial in the 70s to community radio and never looked back. No Seger, no Aerosmith, no Wham! and no commercials.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:12am From: Pearly Sweets

I have a hunger for chicken nuggets. But like the type you cook at home... and a day old and cold....

Thu. 4/9/09 11:12am From: Cecile

awwwww
*shuffles off cause she likes some early Seger, one Wham! song and owns about six 'smith LPs"

Thu. 4/9/09 11:13am From: annie

word charm, i loved whfs out of bethesda. a light on the fm dial. then they took it away, those corporate bastards for top 40 shit...

Thu. 4/9/09 11:15am From: stingy d

let's drink juice, and eat almonds, and cashews, and dried cherries and bluberries.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:15am From: still b/p

Get Your Wings = fun.
Saw Aerosmith twice, not so good either show. Probably the boys' "we-re a mess" period. Opener Rick Derringer better.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: Pearly Sweets

In a band that I was in back in college we did an awesome cover of patches. We turned it into a swans-esque dirge.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: Carmichael

Hey! The Chairmen did this. Didn't General Johnson write it?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: trouble

hello new zealand! I am are reading janet frame's Mona minim and the smell of the sun, with my 8 year old. one of my fave NZ authors

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: gumby

I will publicly say that Wham's - Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go may in fact be one of those perfect pop songs. AHHHH Patches! Trouble you and Icepack are playing all the pics that clicks today.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: Cecile

Speaking of connections, General Johnson from CoTB wrote this song.
he did a version on his solo album with a hilarious (unintentional) "ELizabeth I'm coing to join you" interlude.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:16am From: annie

oh man we used to slaughter this song...

Thu. 4/9/09 11:17am From: Cecile

I like Careless Whispers, gumby.
And Get your Wings is awesome.
I could stand to hear some Seasons of Wither...maybe Scott will hook us up.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:17am From: Pearly Sweets

It's a great song to perform.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:18am From: Cecile

is that what you're doing Stinge?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:19am From: Parq

I split commercial rock radio once and for all in 1979, when the local album-rock FM station started running a TV commercial in which a naked blonde squealed "Sometimes I have nothing on at all -- except [name of station]!" You know how a moment comes and you just know it's over?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:19am From: Cecile

Carm, lmao! great minds.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:19am From: Pearly Sweets

Hey... does anyone know if the first OCS album is worth tracking down?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:19am From: Carmichael

Stingy, you snuck in here? I thought you were out melting cheese.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:20am From: Elias

Icepack, I'm depending on you son...

Thu. 4/9/09 11:20am From: Cecile

See, FM rock was exotic to me, growing up in BFE.
We had weird top 40 AM stations that would sometimes do album rock or deep tracks at night.

I love Nellie Lutcher, too!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:20am From: still b/p

When I was fifteen, Train Kept a Rollin' from GYW had the charged narcotic effect of half a dozen Scotcheroos.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:21am From: Carmichael

I'm ready for some swingin' lounge music.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:22am From: Yan Dart

Trouble, I love the show. But I thought you said you were going to spin more Lady Day.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:23am From: Carmichael

Oh, way better than lounge! Strike my previous comment from the records. Vanda and Young!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:25am From: Bad R☺nald

Excellent set opener Icepack!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:27am From: annie

fmu should have one day for the kids to program!! like bring your [kid] to work day..

Thu. 4/9/09 11:27am From: chris

You go Icepack!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:31am From: Parq

I second Annie's motion. An all-offspring day at FMU would rule!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:32am From: Carmichael

He he .... I was just teaching a guy to play this on a Telecaster last night. De ja flippin' vu.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:32am From: annie

even "the boy" could have one..

Thu. 4/9/09 11:33am From: stingy d

om-nom-num-nom... glugluglug... omnomnomnomnom

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: Cecile

Icepack, I'll bet you dig the Pretty Things.
All kids like you must.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: chris

I guess we haven't totally continued the all British theme huh Icepack?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: Amy

Nothing can touch my day when it begins like this. Thanks for the fabulous set!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: Pearly Sweets

I have the dreaded feeling that not all of the children of FMU staffers have quite as good of a taste as Icepack.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: burp

aahhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: Carmichael

And the Ramones.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:34am From: Parq

*Especially* "the boy"! Although his sis would do a great show too.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:35am From: still b/p

I'd put this on the wall:

Thu. 4/9/09 11:36am From: Carmichael

Holy Moly, Trouble! You're pulling these songs right out of my skull!! If you play Helen Shapiro next, I may spontaneously combust.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:36am From: annie

when my son dylan was young we used to listen to the oldies show on the college station and would usually be driving around or eating dinner. what joy. turned up loud and singing together..

Thu. 4/9/09 11:37am From: Carmichael

I have the original version of this by Dana whats-her-face on the Roots of Rock CD.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:37am From: dale

I like DJ Icepacks set better than what's on Andy Breckman's Ipod

Thu. 4/9/09 11:38am From: sugarwolf

DJ Lincoln is pretty awesome, too.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:38am From: Carmichael

I like Bill O'Reilly better than what's on Andy Breckman's iPod.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:38am From: Parq

'Pack, if you haven't yet, you need to dig on the Hollies' "Look Through Any Window", my favorite from their back catalog. And now "Evil Woman"? Kid, you're killin' me here!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:39am From: Cecile

Now, DJ Icepack, I hope you know about the Move.
They did Do Ya before these guys did.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:40am From: SeattleP

Just woke up here in westcoast spring break land
glad to catch a few minutes of IcePack-LIVE!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:40am From: Carmichael

Thu. 4/9/09 11:42am From: petra

Hey Dj Ice Pack and Dj Trouble just got to work and i am tuning in Cali time....I love this song perhaps one day we can kareoke it.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:42am From: Lou

is icepak a red sox fan too?

you both rock

Thu. 4/9/09 11:43am From: Cecile

And Icepack, Cheap Trick are the biggest Move fans ever. You have to check out their first 3 LPs - they are amazing.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:45am From: still b/p

Icepack: "I didn't know there'd be homework..."

Thu. 4/9/09 11:46am From: annie

poor thing wants a VACATION moms

Thu. 4/9/09 11:46am From: Carmichael

Hey Petra, what city are you in?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:47am From: Pearly Sweets

When Icepack and Trouble are talking with the birds chirping all I can think about is that I've walked into their picnic.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:48am From: jk

I'm with Icepak: redsox!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:48am From: Cecile

ah ,yes, late Billy Holiday. Great, wracked stuff.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:49am From: trouble

hey pet!

Thu. 4/9/09 11:49am From: Bad R☺nald

Kickass set DJ Icepack. How do you weigh in on The Monkees?

Thu. 4/9/09 11:53am From: Parq

Lady Day underscores a key scene in the graphic novel "Wachmen". In the movie, they used Cohen's "Hallelujah" instead. I'll leave it to others to evaluate the efficacy of the substitute.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:53am From: jk

also, I'd like to petition DJ Ice Pack to consider dropping the 'c.' "dj icepak" think about it...

Thu. 4/9/09 11:55am From: bill w

Mets will beat the Red Sox in October :)

Thu. 4/9/09 11:57am From: postmanpaul

Thu. 4/9/09 11:57am From: still b/p

Unsolicited Monkees recall: 1967. Boston Garden. Girl in front of us returned to seat with bloody lip after rushing stage. Mickey Dolenz did James Brown cape-and-assisted-false-exit bit , but I had no clue of reference at the time.

Thu. 4/9/09 11:58am From: EAS
