Wed. 5/20/09 3:14pm Keili:

When we are in the car and have bad reception, the other station that filters in is classical. So this is what WFMU sounds like in the car.

Wed. 5/20/09 3:17pm DJ Mama:

Wed. 5/20/09 3:54pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

no, grandma loved him dearly

Wed. 5/20/09 3:54pm Parq:

This gee-tar/banjo thing would have sounded better if our stalwart principals had done it on sax and accordion.

Wed. 5/20/09 3:55pm Parq:

Add Irwin on drums, and we're talking what Juniper's daddy would call a Number One Hit.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:03pm AnAnonymousParty:

Hey Irwin,

WFMU's signal has already reached out to 50 light years by now.

Which means the inhabitants of Alpha Centauri have been scratching their heads for 46 years already.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:07pm Irwin:

I had a thing for Grandma. Something about her record collection.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:09pm Dead Corporate Eyes:

she spoke kindly, and often, of you

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm Irwin:

"Widowmaker," she called me. With gratitude.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm annie:

dcpat, i saw that... did irwin give the lowdown? i was out of earshot.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm Joe:

this song is too poppy
this hat is too slick
I wonder what my listeners will think of this?
Man, I love hip-hop
my bling sure does shiiiiine

things that never cross Irwin's mind

Wed. 5/20/09 4:13pm mb:

Thanks for the Marco Benevento! Woo to the Hoo!

Wed. 5/20/09 4:16pm Parq:

I bet the Old Codger would have found Grandma a saucy "younger" temptress.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:18pm honda:

go on and help the time pass on by.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:25pm BSI:

Wed. 5/20/09 4:27pm to a MR. IRWIN:

Wed. 5/20/09 4:27pm jeff-a-chusetts:

Irwin, is amanda related to you? i'm trying to piece together some sort of reality to this mystique that is....amanda.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:28pm Feral Cat:
