these sounds are pleasing to my ears

Wed. 5/13/09 3:13pm From: BSI

We're all on Irwin's drugs now, baby...
towers.....open.....fire......

Wed. 5/13/09 3:20pm From: Miley

Just thought I'd throw in that *I* am actually cute, and can even sing in tune, which we can't say about everyone on the playlist. And Eminem's got the hots for me, too, to judge from the lyrics on his new CD. Luv ya! <3

Wed. 5/13/09 3:20pm From: AnAnonymousParty

I know a Y. Bhekhirst riff when I hear it.

Wed. 5/13/09 3:20pm From: doug from dc

Here's a better one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/frank-sparrow/3471281174/in/set-72157617108841403/

Wed. 5/13/09 3:22pm From: Lizardner Dave

My weekly dose of Luna. Nice. I remember seeing Galaxie 500 back in my college days two decades ago. I'm old.

Wed. 5/13/09 3:30pm From: Laura L

Same thing happened to me with Luna when that CD was new--bought it for one song I heard no doubt on WFMU and then gave it away upon discovering I only liked one or two songs on it--the ones you have played!

Wed. 5/13/09 3:32pm From: Post on again comment board, please

How to find Amanda tracks?

Wed. 5/13/09 3:32pm From: Irwin

The only other memorable song on PT is "Tracy I Love You." Disappointing.

Wed. 5/13/09 3:33pm From: What!

I found Amanda on youtube. Oh...my...god.

Wed. 5/13/09 3:36pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

this reminds me of "A Mighty Wind"

Wed. 5/13/09 3:47pm From: jan

fine show today!

Wed. 5/13/09 3:53pm From: BSI

Irwin, dammit, I gotta leave early today, so get that Verbal Hate Crime in before 4:30pm, EST....

Wed. 5/13/09 3:55pm From: Laura L

I notice on a music calendar that The Bad Plus is playing tomorrow, 5/14, at Merkin Concert Hall on 67th St. at 8 p.m. $35. http://kaufman-center.org/merkin-concert-hall/event/post-jazz-post-rock-the-musical-truth/

Wed. 5/13/09 4:00pm From: Amandianity

Look out, look out, we'z comin!!!!

Wed. 5/13/09 4:02pm From: BSI

Great bubbling moses, this Amanda critter is marvelous.

She's no Corn Weenie, but there's definitely the seed of insane awesomeness in there.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:02pm From: J-Mar

Y'know, this Amanda track reminds me of the beginning of Kenny G's show earlier today.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:02pm From: maria

somene should sing this amanda next year at hoof n mouth?

Wed. 5/13/09 4:02pm From: molerat

The child is insane.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:03pm From: maria

Wed. 5/13/09 4:03pm From: Amanda

Yep. Talent on loan from Godddddddddddddd.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:14pm From: fishmonkeystew

I think mashing up Amanda and Loosenuts together would be rather interesting.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:16pm From: Crazy Old DJ

I know more songs than frigging Jack Mudurian, get me a dunkin donuts coffee and stand back

Wed. 5/13/09 4:18pm From: ?

phlegmeriffic

Wed. 5/13/09 4:18pm From: JOJO

i think it is cool that irwin's multiple personalities have multiple personalities

Wed. 5/13/09 4:21pm From: Gertrude Baines

Would you just STFU, please? Damned kids.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:22pm From: Paul B

The old codger, fake?! But Professor Dum Dum is real? Right?

Wed. 5/13/09 4:23pm From: Answer Person

As real as someone named Bill Zebub could be. Onion layers.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:25pm From: Sade

a real operator
...real....operator...

Wed. 5/13/09 4:26pm From: Shhhhh

Don't anyone tell the old coot what 4:20 means.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:26pm From: Lizardner Dave

The Old Codger fake, yeah right. Tell me another one. Kenny G we know is an Irwin character but the Codger is real. I've met him.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:26pm From: BSI

Veddy nice baby, Doug.
Did you see the b/w Corpus Callosum vid I finally spit out?
Good noise there.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:28pm From: Feral Cat

Ganga tunes!

Wed. 5/13/09 4:32pm From: Kingston Kool

Spliffy Pop, Spliffy Pop, the magic treat!
Cook it up right, mon, it sweetens the beat!

Wed. 5/13/09 4:33pm From: Feral Cat

I mean ganja time...duh

Wed. 5/13/09 4:35pm From: doug from dc

BSI: yes I did, it's awesome! Nuss loved it, too. Come by Solly's Tavern on Sunday and see the new gear in action.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:49pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

singularly awful

Wed. 5/13/09 4:51pm From: Bad Ronald

Yeah, Rhonda needs to take some rage lessons from Amanda.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:51pm From: Lizardner Dave

Holy shit that Rhonda track was bad. I'm still laughing.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:52pm From: Laura L

Rhonda! More Rhonda! That was terrific! She may have been ready to rage, but I don't think she was ready to rock.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:52pm From: Irwin

What does the ID "Dead Corporate Eyes" signify?

Wed. 5/13/09 4:52pm From: Marshall Stacks

@Bad Ronald: singing lessons too.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:52pm From: Announcing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Amanda and Rhonda -- the new supergroup!

Wed. 5/13/09 4:53pm From: Eric Cartman

I think I'm in love.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:53pm From: Marshall Stacks

Just what the Label Industry has been waiting for!

Wed. 5/13/09 4:54pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

nothing

Wed. 5/13/09 4:56pm From: Freud

Sometimes a Pseudonym is just meant to be a Pseudonym...?

Wed. 5/13/09 4:56pm From: Ralph Cramden

My wife Alice went to the moon.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:57pm From: Alice

[Crossing arms, speaking slowly] In your dreams, Ralph. Like everything else in your miserable life.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:58pm From: Calvin Trillan

My wife Alice went *everywhere*.

Wed. 5/13/09 4:59pm From: doug from dc

The mothership just landed.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:01pm From: Parq

I heart the Free Music Archive. I just wish I had more time to spend with it. Like two or three lifetimes.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:02pm From: Inquiring Minds

One can't help but wonder what Amanda is like, 20 years on... Perchance youtube Jerserf knows. Or not.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:04pm From: Richard Simmons

I love this!

Wed. 5/13/09 5:05pm From: doug from dc

She sings death metal now.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:05pm From: W.M.

Erect an F.U.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:07pm From: Why not a guess?

Amanda changed her name to Sarah and moved to Alaska?????

Wed. 5/13/09 5:17pm From: Irwin

Sometimes Amanda sounds like JG Thirlwell at age 8.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:19pm From: Marshall Stacks

Methinks Mr. Paisley doth protest too much.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:23pm From: G

Thanks for the Lee Michaels. I honestly haven't thought of him since "Do You Know What I Mean" was on CKLW back about 1970. Looking into his work while I listen.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:23pm From: Mrs. Paisley

I still expect you to put your socks in the hamper. I'm not the fucking Laundry Fairy.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:24pm From: Palin

From: Don't worry I'll wipe out all those timesuck sites

justdontfriendmeperiod.com, a social networking site where the point is to have as few people as possible be your eletronic fake friend. Everyone starts with zero, but the coolest members don't even join. Until, of course, so many people have not joined that they all feel mainstream, and join just to avoid that label, thus creating a quantum-mechanics logical contradiction that destroys the internet, and incidentally the cosmos.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:26pm From: Laura L

Before Thirlwell's voice changed, yeah, maybe, but without the Aussie dialect and without any sense of lyrics. Jim was probably writing in rhymes like "Do not tailgate me, I drive defensively" (to quote one of many favorites) even as a young lad.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:29pm From: Irwin

Re: Thirlwell @ 8 -- I meant the overall level of chaos and industrial-strength noisification.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:30pm From: N is the Fourteenth Letter

Thanks for playing the Slint.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:32pm From: LMAO

OK, Thirlwell's arranging style, got it...

Wed. 5/13/09 5:33pm From: Laura L

Yeah, I know, but I'm just sayin'. The chaos, though, yeah, maybe. Chaos at 8! Sounds like a good title for a show!

Wed. 5/13/09 5:34pm From: Engraved Invitation

Chaos at eight, and don't be late.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:39pm From: Todd 76%

Geez... Andy Pratt, Lee Michaels...Irwin's show often tickles my long-dormant obscure 70's singer-songwriter brain cells. I just found myself googling Brian Protheroe and Thunderclap Newman (technically a band, I know)...what's next for me? Emitt Rhodes?!?! Thanks for yet another fine show, Irwin!

Wed. 5/13/09 5:52pm From: Laura L

Rhonda's dad?

Wed. 5/13/09 5:53pm From: ?

Book her Dano

Wed. 5/13/09 5:56pm From: Casio

We always knew we'd be used to play classic music. Just trust the creativity of the public.

Wed. 5/13/09 5:58pm From: Marshall Stacks

Who are Hart and Papagan? That Korendian stuff (look it up) makes Sun Ra's cosmology seem mainstream.

Like Amanda says, break it down for me!

Thu. 5/14/09 12:13pm From: Wavee Davee

A day without Miley Cirus is like a day without a herpes breakout.

Thu. 5/14/09 6:20pm From: ?

Andy Pratt is still producing great new music! Learn more on his web site: http://andyprattmusic.tripod.com

Fri. 5/15/09 9:22pm From: laskitude

the stamey/holsapple track was DREADFUL! How can talented persons like these be responsible for such horrid dreck?
