Listener comments!

  12:05pm
carly:

what was the first thing you played? before leonard cohen....
  12:05pm
dc p:

not the first...
  12:07pm
Will:

That was the end of Affection by Jonathan Richman carly
  12:10pm
Bad Ronald:

Leonard Cohen Live London 2008 -
http://pitchfork.com/tv/#/episode/986-leonard-cohen-live-in-london/1
  12:10pm
Ike:

B. Walker always plays that whiny Jonathan Richman song at the end of his otherwise brilliant, awesome, killer radio show. I can't stand that song. It hits a little close to home for me. Also, his voice is awful -- he's like the male indie rock version of Diane Rehm.
  12:12pm
Parq:

As is often the case, I must register a collegial disagreement with Ike - that JR song has always been one of my favorites. But I am hopelessly sentimental.

This guy pays docks?
  12:12pm
doug from dc:

ducks! ducks! i paint ducks! i paint ducks on my blanket!
  12:13pm
Pearly Sweets:

Ike just ripped my heart out and ate it.
  12:14pm
Parq:

Maybe he pays docs - you know, chronic health problems. He's foreign, so he's used to free medical care.
  12:14pm
I'm with Ike:

Love Ben and Jonathan, hate that song
  12:15pm
AlizaEss:

O.k., so I'm not the one one who heard ducks. Phew.
  12:16pm
Ike:

Doug from DC: HA! I thought so too! Reminds me of my birthplace's second-biggest tourist attraction:
http://www.wardmuseum.org/

Pearly: I didn't eat it yet. I'm still sauteeing and seasoning it. Not enough garlic or cumin.
  12:18pm
annie:

i always just recognize the song as part of the show and leave it at that. oh.. and... woohoo somewhat close to first comment!!
  12:23pm
annie:

i missed BW this am, just got home. greetings to all. goodmorning liz
  12:23pm
Parq:

Annie! Puppy?
  12:23pm
Devin:

Whata fun show this morning Liz!
  12:23pm
dc pat:

Jonathan Richmon rules--that song is a perfect example of why he's so great. There's nothing like him..
  12:24pm
Liz B.:

Hey everyone, anyone see the airplane madness this morning?
  12:24pm
still b/p:

Is this the Checker that "Space" threw over to escape the vacuum?
  12:24pm
annie:

parq, hopefully she is coming today. and i am also dogsitting for someone, wow.. rain and pouring.
  12:26pm
Marshall Stacks:

Didn't see it, Liz, but then I'm in CA. I get nervous when someone in the NYC area mentions "airplane madness" - what happened?
  12:26pm
Devin:

Airplane madness?
  12:26pm
doug from dc:

I used that Bryon Gysin "I Am" poem in a remix once, and speed it up like that. It makes a good sample.
  12:27pm
BrianInIreland:

hi from galway, settling myself in for the show!
  12:28pm
dc p:

you shouldn't live in DC if airplanes, jets or bombers flying overhead freak you out.
  12:28pm
Parq:

Was up semi-near Annie's way this weekend, in northern Dutchess County (mid-state Hudson River valley, for you who are not nearby). Was hoping for a beutiful spring weekend, instead got a beautiful summer weekend with still-bare trees. Leafless branches and college girls in halter-tops -- very weird combination.
  12:28pm
annie:

OMG, just discovered leftover coffee in the glass press!! woohoo, i win! stewart's coffee just doesn't cut it.
  12:28pm
Parq:

Brian, welcome. Galway is my favorite Irish county.
  12:29pm
dc p:

I've seen "stealth" bombers at least twice and let me tell you, those things are fekkin LOUD.
  12:30pm
annie:

parq, i'd love to have you by anytime you want. i will not be sporting a haltertop though. i am 5 miles from downsville. how did your visit go?
  12:31pm
still b/p:

You must be mistaken. No one can actually "see" a stealth bomber.
  12:32pm
chicago red:

greetings from chicago...have to get ready for work but have no coffee in the house and cant leave the houseto get coffee without coffee ...what do i do, im frozen!
  12:33pm
annie:

  12:33pm
Cecile:

Hi annie, hi all, welcome Brian!
  12:34pm
annie:

  12:36pm
chicago red:

oh wait...just founda stash of coke...problem solved
  12:36pm
dc p:

Cecile/Ike: Jonathan like to run around, jump. He likes to eat food! How can you not be into that??
  12:37pm
still b/p:

Ian Talty and the River Fiasco = GNFA (thrash bluegrass) B
  12:38pm
chicago:

though this music is stonger than caffenine
  12:39pm
Ike:

Wow, I love the Harappian Night Recordings, Gai/Jan, and Omar S.

DC Punk, you said "JR rules... there's nothing like him." Yeah, in the same way that there's nothing like swine flu! POW! Now lick a pig! ;)
  12:39pm
annie:

b/p it would have to be a bill monroe tribute band. since ian just bought the farm, so to speak
  12:39pm
Pearly Sweets:

Foot Village is anti-annoying.
  12:40pm
Gabe:

That ice cream song is the soundtrack to my nightmares
  12:41pm
Pearly Sweets:

DC Pat and I are going to hang out and listen to all of JoJo's early 80s albums and Ike and Cecile aren't invited. We're gonna have all sorts of great food and awesome fun and running around. So There!
  12:41pm
Cecile:

So does Milo from the Descendants. I like him better.
Like I said, I will kick anyone's ass to defend the Modern Lovers, and Jonathan was a big part of that. I just don't like much of his later stuff.

Pearly, you guys have an amazing time. I mean it.
  12:43pm
dc p:

you got it Pearly!

Ike: there is something like swine flu--your comments! WOOOOOoooo... Ah I love ya Ike..
  12:44pm
annie:

parq, if kiddo is still in college next year, bring her over for the OH-fest. a collaboration of hartwick and suny-O music and street party..
  12:44pm
Jøe Steele:

Pigs! Planes! Oh the Humanity.
  12:45pm
Parq:

Pearly, can I tag along? I like to eat food a lot, and I like other things.
  12:46pm
dc pat:

as long as you like other things, you're welcome Parq
  12:47pm
still b/p:

The most pumped version of Roadrunner would make me chase cars on Route 128 and not come when called.
  12:52pm
Pearly Sweets:

Aw hell. Everyone can come. Even Ike. He can just bring headphones.
  12:54pm
dc punk:

  1:01pm
annie:

  1:05pm
Cecile:

Wow, this is like some one heard "LIttle Trouble Girl" and decided to base their whole life on it. pretty cute.
  1:07pm
GP:

Liz, is today an all new music show? IF so it is getting off to a great start.
  1:10pm
Liz B.:

Thanks GP, it's mostly new music today, but I guess I play mostly new music every week... Ha, way to be non-committal about a theme!
  1:14pm
GP:

Yeah, I guess so, I can't say that I have ever heard the same thing twice on your show...I'm still out of it being Monday, and all that..still trying to wake up.

  1:58pm
Barry:

Hey, everybody just drop a chill pill. Are we cool?
  1:59pm
doug:

is it swine flu? i dont know. i thought the media was supposed to obsess over shark attacks in the summer.
and i'm no doctor, but 100 deaths isnt really much and from what i can figure the fatality rate is only a few percent.
  2:01pm

The Plague:

Get off my lawn!
  2:16pm
Bubonic Plague:

Damn wannabes.
  2:17pm
The Sturgeon General:

What's freaking the public health people out about this swine flu outbreak is that it's been killing "young, healthy adults." (Ya know, like your typical WFMU listener.) Flu typically only kills the very young, old, or infirm.

So there's some concern that this could be the start of a pandemic, like 1918's.

We now return you to Liz B. blowing our Monday morning minds.
  2:17pm
Cecile:

Liz, if you are hankering to play the new Bats disc, I have two words for you: Crooked Path.

  2:46pm
Ike:

Uh oh, is Clay Pigeon playing music for three hours at 3? I LOVE his stories, monologues, interviews, etc. and he's a really sweet dude but his dusty, Velveeta-tastic taste in music doesn't do it for me. Not that there's anything wrong with Velveeta. Just not for me thanks. I'll take musical habanero jack and comte instead.
  2:46pm
Ike:

Like this for instance!
  2:47pm

I like Clay's dusties. Not all of them, but quite a few of them.

Sorry, I don't know why I rambled on like that. I should shut it. I just have insane nightmares that once CBS-FM and other oldies stations go all-'80s, all the oldies fanatics will try to take over WFMU. I know, craaaaazy.

Liz, What is the name of that DJ that fills in sometimes and plays the REALLY old stuff? I mean like Victorian age 78's..I heard him one night and could not stop listening to that old stuff.
  2:55pm
GP:

Did I just step into a Kylie Minogue video?
  2:55pm
G.:

The 78s-era slot is currently Tuesday nights 7-8? Two DJs alternate weeks usually, yes?
  2:56pm
jaypee:

ZOMG.. this is awesome. Love the 303ish action.
  2:57pm
GP:

I can't remember what night since I usually only listen during the day through the computer at work. He was a crusty old dude, but had some really funny commentary.
  2:58pm
annie:

might have been the old codger
  2:59pm
G.:

The "Old Coot" (actual handle escaping me) used to do the Tuesday 7-8 slot and for whatever reason was last on the schedule in about mid 08.
  2:59pm
GP:

Annie,
I think you are right! He played some very cool stuff. I could imagine my grandparents dancing to it when they were youngsters.
  2:59pm

We love you too, Liz! Maybe we'll visit soon!
