Funny kid!! He's FIRED UP!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:10pm Pearly Sweets:

Not nearly as finished as I was hoping it would be at this point. My goal was to have it done by tomorrow night. We'll see...

Wed. 5/6/09 3:12pm Feral Cat:

Opps...She's fired up rather. What? She stomped on a cat?!! Hey....

Wed. 5/6/09 3:12pm Col. Mustard:

BTW, I am in the kitchen with the candlestick, so you may want to steer clear.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:16pm Pearly Sweets:

Yes. It'll be finished, if not tonight, than tomorrow at the latest. Then our game of musical chess shall continue!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:17pm The Riddler:

Gotcha.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:21pm Joe:

First lady of radio!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:25pm Correction:

The guitar is the ukulele of the modern era.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:26pm Pearly Sweets:

Wed. 5/6/09 3:41pm Irwin:

rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrIGHT!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:42pm Stan Kenton:

is still ahead of his time, even today. i mean that in a good way. it is hard to imagine what people thought of him back in his day.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:43pm dc pat:

I think you could make one of those a-bunch-of--photos-look-like-one photos with Laura Cantrell celebrity photos.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:49pm annie:

irwin, you devil...

Wed. 5/6/09 3:50pm Pearly Sweets:

He is actually still alive

Wed. 5/6/09 3:50pm Ike:

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:50pm Pearly Sweets:

Hannah AMANDA!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:50pm doug from dc:

noooo!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm ?:

OK Irwin, we get it... does seeger really deserve your sarcasm?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm Carmichael:

Boy, I tuned in at the right time ....

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm What!:

Now this is what I call radio...

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm annie:

i'd rather hear seeger <s>

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm ?:

can we hear a mashup of this with Amanda? Might be the only way to redeem it.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:51pm Jess:

You had me feeling really bad for you, Irwin. And then you toss the Hannah Montana at me.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:52pm AnAnonymousParty:

Does Miley do any Pete Seeger covers?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:53pm doug from dc:

End of Playback

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm dc pat:

I think Irwin is more Kenny G than Kenny G is.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm What!:

...Pete really updated his style. And viced his nuts, sounds like...

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm Jess:

Does Pete Seeger do any Miley Cyrus covers?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm Ike:

Accusing liberals and semi-socialist democrats of being Communist? Snore. You and Fox News should learn a new trick.

We will bury you.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm ?:

shit

Wed. 5/6/09 3:54pm Pearly Sweets:

Classic. Amanda.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:55pm Austin:

How many more plays does Miley need before WFMU becomes her #1 google listing?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:55pm Feral Cat:

So that's what the kiddies are listening to these days...ouch my achy breaky ears.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:55pm elvie:

How do I get these Amanda tracks?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:55pm ?:

this little titbox was on uk tv afew weeks ago, she was a gibbering jamrag

Wed. 5/6/09 3:56pm Ike:

Suddenly I really want a cookie.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:57pm Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Wed. 5/6/09 3:57pm dc pat:

right on Ike. I will watch my apostrophes for that comment. (the 3:54 comment)

Wed. 5/6/09 3:57pm Consumer:

Where can I buy me this Amanda album?

Wed. 5/6/09 3:57pm Pearly Sweets:

? just made me spit water at my desk. The person who sits close to me gave me a very disappointed look.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:58pm Pearly Sweets:

I haven't seen Sean around in like a week and a half. How is it going, hot shot?

Wed. 5/6/09 4:03pm Peanut Gallery:

Where has this song been my whole life? My dad had a Claude Thornhill album but this wasn't on it...

Wed. 5/6/09 4:03pm Ike:

Titbox?!? Is that common British slang? I assume "?" meant Miley Cyrus?

I dig Lily Allen. Miley will not only never be that smart, but can't even imagine ever being that smart.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:03pm Jess:

Woo, I live for the calypso

Wed. 5/6/09 4:06pm Pearly Sweets:

I liked the idea of Amanda being called a "gibbering jamrag". So that is how I will continue to see ?'s comment, even though it being hannah montana makes tons more sense.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:06pm Gigantor:

Me too. Still miss Muriel...

Wed. 5/6/09 4:11pm AnAnonymousParty:

Diggin' the Peter & Chris, will dig the Monk too.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:21pm Feral Cat:

Cool cover of Cinnamon Girl...especially if you're into girls...meow

Wed. 5/6/09 4:22pm AnAnonymousParty:

It reminds me of the SCTV parody of Perry Como, tempo-wise.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:25pm Pearly Sweets:

I was a bigger fan of Kenny & Irwin cover, myself.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:26pm jan:

Larry Welk uncorked- nice groove-

Wed. 5/6/09 4:30pm Desi Arnez:

Now this I like.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:34pm Carmichael:

Perry Como --Still Alive! One of my favorite SCTV skits.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:39pm Feral Cat:

Yeah! Kellie Pickler!

Wed. 5/6/09 4:40pm Carmichael:

My thumbs are involuntarily hitching themselves to my belt ....

Wed. 5/6/09 4:41pm AnAnonymousParty:

"What will I wear tomorrow."

Wed. 5/6/09 4:41pm Pearly Sweets:

I like to think Irwin rewards us for his indulgences with.... AMANDA

Wed. 5/6/09 4:42pm Peanut Gallery:

I think I'm fixing to start...going home. (checking...yep, still a man)

Wed. 5/6/09 4:42pm Pearly Sweets:

"Her panties were in a wad, MAAAN... I guess."

Wed. 5/6/09 4:45pm Garth:

I heart Amanda! She makes up for your Pete Seeger bashing.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:45pm Pearly Sweets:

You can find her through myspace pretty easily. FYI. I posted a link last week in the accuplaylist.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:46pm Ike:

A couple of those things have crossed my mind once or twice, but not any of the really girly ones.

Was that Pickler song reinforcing boring, rigid old gender roles, or was it a clumsy attempt to slyly mock them? I would've liked a wink indicating self-awareness. Also, it was overproduced.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:50pm Carmichael:

Wow. This sounds like it should be on the Odessa box set.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:51pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

I'm googoo for Fugu.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:53pm Peanut Gallery:

I am not allowed to listen to this, am I?

Wed. 5/6/09 4:54pm jojo:

oh my god i am 15 all over again all of a sudden, I saw these guys then and it was a great show

Wed. 5/6/09 4:54pm AnAnmousParty:

Well he's obviously been to the state of confusion.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:55pm Lizardner Dave:

I saw Living Colour open for Fishbone at the Ritz on 11th street. Does that make me old? You bet!

Wed. 5/6/09 4:56pm Carmichael:

Fishbone. What memories ... Sunny Saturday.

Wed. 5/6/09 4:57pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

Messiah!

Wed. 5/6/09 4:58pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

little baby Bjork

Wed. 5/6/09 4:59pm Ike:

Gee, you think maybe those first few and last few seconds made this an unapproved "remix" that Living Colour would find to be in bad taste? Nah, couldn't be.

I am amused by the puny attempt to collect embarrassing soundbites of "The One," esp. after that LAST guy churned out hilarious soundbite entertainment every single day (and could barely speak English).

Wed. 5/6/09 5:03pm bryan:

funny ... i just heard that bjork track for the first time last week. when you played it i thought the stream had skipped and i had jumped into my own itunes, but then the steinberg came on and i had no idea what it was.

those bjork tracks are precious.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:07pm Peanut Gallery:

Ike: The visuals make the song.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:14pm Pearly Sweets:

Is this used in Glenn or Glenda? If not... it should have been.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:15pm Feral Cat:

IKE...cool your jets or get cyber slashed..your choice.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:15pm Ike:

Huh, Peanut? Do you mean that's a YouTube thing? Yeah, I'll pass. I haven't even gotten around to watching the Dr. Who "what are you doing here?" video yet.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:15pm Lizardner Dave:

Regardless of one's political leanings, why is it wrong to make fun of Barry O again? Someobody refresh my memory.

Dear God, please don't let my conservative friends be right when they try to tell me liberals have no sense of humor about themselves. Please.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:18pm JT:

This shit's getting way too complicated for me.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:19pm Ike:

BRING IT, FERAL CAT! I know the trick to fighting a cat: Wear oven gloves! Ha ha... now you can never defeat me!

Lizardner, I didn't say it was wrong. But at least they could try to make it funny. I don't have a good sense of humor in general, so I'm indicative of nothing.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:23pm Peanut Gallery:

Ike: Good move eschewing the YouTube thing. And you funny man! LD doesn't have to worry about you. All the best, time to go home. -- PG

Wed. 5/6/09 5:25pm Feral Cat:

Cat scratch fever is coming for you IKE...I've alerted your local strays.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:25pm annie:

yeah, night all on this end.. see you all tamarry

Wed. 5/6/09 5:26pm Pearly Sweets:

Irwin... every one is leaving. That means it is just us left. Let's sit on each other's lap and listen to amanda off our ipod together. We can share the headphones.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:43pm Carmichael:

I'm still here and ready to rock! Uhhh, ready to .... uhhh ... listen.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:45pm Brian Oregon:

Irwin -- Speaking of Hoof and Mouth, does Bethany like you better yet?

Wed. 5/6/09 5:45pm Feral Cat:

Brooklyn baby!! Happy belated birthday Irwin...xoxo

Wed. 5/6/09 5:46pm Janet H:

HEY!.....happy bday!

Wed. 5/6/09 5:48pm Pearly Sweets:

Hop on!

Wed. 5/6/09 5:49pm Carmichael:

Here she is again, Pearly.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:51pm Pearly Sweets:

I just want Irwin to do a show that is nothing but his top-40 country and amanda. Because hearing them back to back enhances the experience of both.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:53pm Feral Cat:

Does Amanda have Tourettes?

Wed. 5/6/09 5:53pm Lizardner Dave:

I'm still here too. Working late. Damn, I thought this Nuggets track was R. Stevie Moore. Maybe RSM should cover it, I his version would be great.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:54pm Carmichael:

Beautiful choice, Irwin. Haven't heard this in years.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:55pm Musicologist:

Tomorrow -- one of the great never-made-it groups of Brit psychedelia. Steve Howe guitar work, later of Yes.

Wed. 5/6/09 5:55pm Carmichael:

I remember a DJ at a college station nearby do a set of alternating Sinatra/Zappa songs. He obviously put a lot of work into it, and the results were stellar.

Thu. 5/7/09 11:32pm ben:

whats going on with Minisnap? maybe i'm a bit retarded but don't they sound a we bit like Electralane? i could barley tell any difference.
