|
Fri. 6/12/09 9:50am
Parq:
Exactly what I thought, Annie. Greek music? You mean like "Shout", "Wooly Bully", "Double Shot", that kinda thing? | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 9:52am
Zorba:
Anyday of the week, Parq, but never on Sunday | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 9:55am
Parq:
Felix [wants Oscar to dance with his new Greek girlfriend's father]: It's okay, don't worry, I saw this in 'Zorba the Greek'. Oscar: It's *not* okay, I saw this in 'Boys in the Band'! | |
|

annie:
love that parq. is it next friday yet? huh is it> | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 9:57am
Cecile:
what's that style of Greek singing that is really only truly authentic if the singer has lost an eye to syphilis and a finger or two in a knife fight? (not my words, the late Keith Ferguson from the Fabulous Thunderbirds, etc.) | |

Cecile, Just lay back and think of Rufus Wainwright. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:36am

Ah, Rufus! | |
|

What am I, chopped liver? | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:37am
Cecile:
Can't. I get too sad. What a waste. It's like looking at a beautiful Fabrege egg you can never have. And that never wants you back. ;) | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:39am
Carmichael:
Good morning Doug and innuendo-laced listeners. You got a strummy, folky thing goin' on here Doug. Baby Lemonade wouldn't be out of place at all here. Except for the "no-beat" part ... | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:42am
Roy Pea:
Don't know if you mentioned this, Doug, but Hattie McDaniel's birthday was on Wednesday. I know this because that's my b-day as well. One I share with Elliot Spitzer, Bobby Jindal and John Yoo, as my younger bro so coldly pointed out. Luckily, people like Hattie M and Howlin' Wolf represent the other side of the Gemini! | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:43am
Mallory:
Doug, I'd love to hear some Abner next week! I'll be listening. :) | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:46am
Drummer Some:
Roy, I did see that HM's b-day was 6/10. Forgot to mention it! Thanks for the backup. Mallory, Abner Jay is always welcome on the show. Can't promise when he'll reappear, but it shouldn't be too long. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:47am
Parq:
Vey ist mir, what did I miss, with all this Heit Report talk? Dang commute. Well, if it's Wainwrights you want, Loudi III and such family members as are still talking to him will be doing a live show in my front yard, Madison Square Park, next week. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:47am
Carmichael:
For some reason, I share my birthday with lots of musical people: Mark Knopfler, Pat Metheny, Buck Owens, Joe Jackson, and (the best name of all) Joe "Boogaloo" Jones. Oh, and George Hamilton. We have yet to celebrate together. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:50am
annie:
lucky you parq!! you going? | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:50am
Carmichael:
Parq, is he on the outs with his family? That's too bad. I saw Martha on TV and she speaks gushingly of him. He married one of the Roche sisters, if I recall? | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:51am
Cecile:
I've got Clint Eastwood, Kyle Secor (Bayliss on Homicide), Johnny Paycheck and Joe Willie Namath! and Walt Whitman. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:51am
Cecile:
I know he and his dad don't get along. I thought he and his mum and Martha were fine. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:52am
Cecile:
and Carm's twins! | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:54am
Parq:
Sure hope to. He'll be joined by his other daughter (not Martha) and his niece. 'Cile, I'm led to believe that he is on the outs with Rufus because dad is jealous of son's success; sort of a paternal "Star Is Born" trip. I'd assumed that Martha had sided with Ruf. I'm glad to know she's still okay with pop; maybe I'm wrong about Ruf, too. In any event, neither Ruf nor Marti will be joining pop next week - barring unbilled "surprise" appearances. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:54am
dc pat:
I got Lucinda Williams and Eddie Van Halen on my b-day. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:55am
PMD:
Parq, wow... Wish I could go! | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:55am
Roy Pea:
LW III seems to thrive on volatile family dynamics. Probably provides him with great material. His song "Surviving Twin" evokes the tension and competition he felt with his own father. Like father, like son, as they say. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:56am
Cecile:
Oh, I thought you were talking about Rufus, parq! I think Martha did side with Rufus. Not sure. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:56am
Carmichael:
Yes, Cecile! They're another year closer to car keys ..... | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:56am
Parq:
Btw, don't know if DrumSum's got a gospel set planned, so I'll toss this out now. Did anyone else catch "Sinner's Crossroads" last night? Kev did a whole set of 70s-funk-style gospel songs. Really unusual. Wondered if it was genuine love of the form or just an attempt to "get the kids". | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:56am
PMD:
I have Mark Knopfler, Pat Metheny | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:57am
Cecile:
Yes, Roy Pea, he's never made any bones about being a great dad, but still it's kind of sad. Although it can produce good art. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:58am
Carmichael:
PMD, looks like we share birthdays. Maybe it explains a lot. :)) | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:58am
dc pat:

|
Fri. 6/12/09 10:58am

Oh, and my birthday kin include E.A. Poe, Janis J, Minn. Fats and George Gordon Lord Byron. | |

The Gods smile on us .... | |

She also takes the prize for the oddest pairing so far: Dubya & Fitty. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:04am

Oh my. I just read that I also share my day with Miss Cleo and Plaxico Burress. Kinda takes the piss out of that celebration. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:08am
still b/p:
Roman Emperor Valentinian III, Hermann Hesse, Walter Brennan, Thurgood Marshal, Ahmad Jamal, Lindsay Lohan. And which of them tallied the most birthday shots? It wasn't me. | |

The Dalai Lama and Dubya share a birthday?! And people are skeptical about astrology! | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:50am
annie:
yeah, roy.. very odd. almost cosmic | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:51am
Roy Pea:
Looks like Annie already made the same comment. Pardon the redundancy. Does anyone else find it hard to believe that Dennis Hopper became a Republican? | |
|

annie:
all those damn hippies have to grow up sometime!! <s> | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:54am

Never assume anything rational about Dennis : ) | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:54am
Carmichael:
Doug, you can get funky like this any old time. It ain't good music unless you can say "Ugh!" | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:54am
Parq:
Roy, I find Jon Voight's awakening <s> even more bizzare. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:54am
annie:
that's what makes him so wonderful | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:55am
Drummer Some:
Everybody say it with me UGH! Thank you. | |
|
Fri. 6/12/09 11:55am

God, your are so right about Voight, Parq! He must be suffering flashbacks from Deliverance. | |
