word up, first! morning doug!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:04am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Washington, D.C. representing. Mornin'.

Fri. 7/17/09 9:05am From: PMD

Hi Annie, DDGATGOD, and Doug... representing Virginia I guess. Doug, how goes the job search? Good for you for taking 3 weeks off!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:08am From: annie

morning PMD...

Fri. 7/17/09 9:10am From: Drummer Some

Good morning y'all! I'm gonna miss the hell out of all of you. Still looking, PMD. Trying to find something interesting and not just jump back into the moribund publishing world. Still waiting for a gtds listener to step forward with (ahem) a killer offer!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:22am From: annie

doug do you listen to the brazilian show on wwoz in the crescent city? saturdays, suzanne... she rocks..

Fri. 7/17/09 9:23am From: annie

this is the schedule..: http://www.wwoz.org/programs/schedule

Fri. 7/17/09 9:24am From: Drummer Some

Haven't tuned to WWOZ in a long time. I'm constantly hipping others to it though. Thanks for returning the favor Annie!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:25am From: annie

i started listening right after katrina, when their sister station up in cape cod did an emergency fundraiser for them.. this is the week of the jazz fest i think..

Fri. 7/17/09 9:33am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Is not Ken's brother the GM at WWOZ?

http://www.wwoz.org/about/staff/general+managers+blog

Fri. 7/17/09 9:35am From: annie

veerrrrry interesting..

Fri. 7/17/09 9:35am From: gumby

Doug have a good time in Maine! Last time I was up there those crazy Mainers moved the Appalachian trail right into the middle of a river!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:37am From: annie

oh, right, and i'd love to know if the plum creek plan went through, they were gonna gentrify and build up moosehead lake.. allowing boat ramps and such.. would have ruined it. and say hi to weru for me, station is right on route one..

Fri. 7/17/09 9:38am From: Drummer Some

WWOZ's general manager is no releation to our Ken. WFMU did help out WWOZ immediately after Katrina, letting that station broadcast live online using one of our streams. I have always been hugely proud of what Ken did in helping out our radio neighbor during that horrible episode. (Heckuva job there, Kenny!)

Fri. 7/17/09 9:39am From: Drummer Some

Gumby, that must've been the part of the Appy Trail Mark Sandford was hiking!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:39am From: chris

I have this cd. Great stuff. Hall rocks!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:40am From: annie

i love how it all came together for them, doug. i think they were broadcasting just a few days afterwards. long ago.. i forget..

Fri. 7/17/09 9:41am From: gumby

It was a part called Four Mile Falls, just before the Kennebec River. And it was one giant waterfall after 3 days of rain. Absolutely gorgeous though!

Fri. 7/17/09 9:42am From: annie

i almost moved to blue hill last year....

Fri. 7/17/09 9:54am From: north guinea hills

ah, bill evans, perfect chillness on a friday morning while watching my boss go insane....

Fri. 7/17/09 9:55am From: annie

it was amazingly bittersweet listening to tony's show yesterday.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:01am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

My mistake. My assumption regarding the similarities in last name coupled with the near immediate offer of assistance by Ken has certainly made an ASS of ME. I guess that is why they call me the Dum Dum Guy. :)

Fri. 7/17/09 10:06am From: theloniouscrunk

I agree--a perfect jazz set for the end of the week.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:14am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Play Strange Fruit. Chilling.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:16am From: annie

cecile mentioned she felt a twinge-y ache last friday when she realized that drummer some was coming and going and she was not listening. she promised to listen to the archives.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:17am From: paul from Sheffield UK

Howdy folks.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:18am From: annie

:)

Fri. 7/17/09 10:30am From: annie

this is one of my billie faves.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:34am From: Carmichael

Good Friday morning Doug and others. Annie, just where is Cecile?

Fri. 7/17/09 10:37am From: annie

she is on vacation. we email occasionally.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:39am From: Carmichael

The Pyrenees? The South Bank? Tierra Del Fuego?

Fri. 7/17/09 10:40am From: annie.

hehehe.. sorry, i think michigan...

Fri. 7/17/09 10:49am From: GP

ATTENTION
Good morning.....I repeat.....Good Morning.
That is all
Over and Out

Oh and Doug, have a great vacation! If you are allowed to eat Lobster I hear they have a surplus this year. down in Maine..priced cheap and tasty.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:52am From: trishhh

Can't say 'tweet tweet' without calling to mind some corporation, anymore.
So much for that. Little birds they aren't.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:52am From: GP

Shesh..I hope Ike is not around to notice my punctuation lackadaisicalaitudinus. Typing too fast here.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:57am From: Not Ike

GP I don't know about the punctuation, but the unloquacious and gratuitous making up of words must CEASE!

Fri. 7/17/09 10:58am From: Onoma Paea

trishhh, i can hear it now!

Fri. 7/17/09 10:59am From: Carmichael

Eddie friggin' Hinton. Ya baby.

Fri. 7/17/09 10:59am From: Drummer Some

GP:
Allowed to eat lobster? I would boil myself alive if I wasn't ALLOWED to eat lobster!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:01am From: GP

LOL Ike. Wordmongery shall cease (for now). Have a good weekend.

Apparently, camels only nuzz in english. <grumph!>

Fri. 7/17/09 11:04am From: GP

Agreed Carmichael....Eddine friggin' Hinton indeed. What a wonderful song. I want to sing that to my wife, but she would probably laugh and/or cower in horror at the screeching sounds projecting via my vox box.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:06am From: annie

speaking as a person who could be a wife to someone, i would give my eyeteeth to have ANYONE sing to me, the voice ain't nothing, it's the intent....sing away, honey

Fri. 7/17/09 11:06am From: JW

"Can't Judge a Book" written by the great Willie Dixon

Fri. 7/17/09 11:08am From: GP

Annie ; )

Fri. 7/17/09 11:08am From: north guinea hills

i sing to my girlfriend all the time, usually i don't even realize it, as i sing away when i'm at home...

Fri. 7/17/09 11:08am From: Carmichael

Man, I thought this was Elvis until I looked at the list. I love Dan Penn's music, but I've never heard him talk.

"Dark End of the Street" is one of my favorite songs ever.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:11am From: still b/p

I sometimes listen to the Classic Soul and Motown channel on the Sirius that comes with my sat. TV, and while there's some good and entertaining stuff there, they don't play the great unfamiliar 60s soul and R&B tracks I hear on FMU. Enjoying them more and more. Thanks.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:12am From: mike

doug, finally got your premium. it's more awesome than i could have imagined.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:16am From: annie

i love it when i find myself shaking my head, and have been for several minutes... beebop areebop.. woohoo!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:16am From: Drummer Some

Hey Mike,
So glad you (finally) got it and dig it! With that cover, how bad could it be?!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:22am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

I posit that John Lennon listened to this Trevor McNamara song shortly before he wrote Instant Karma.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:27am From: Parq

Slept in this AM, but here for the last reel. DrumSum, bet you're really looking forward to that vacation. Have a terrific one.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:28am From: Carmichael

Great non-Beatles Beatles set.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:29am From: Carmichael

Oh, and DumDum, if you want Lennon-like music check out Graham Dye.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:29am From: annie

good morning parq..

Fri. 7/17/09 11:33am From: Parq

Hey, Annische, and all. Speaking of soul, as b/p was, the first night of Pondo Stomp NYC last night was killer. Putting on my boots at tight jeans (metaphorically speaking) for Part 2 tonight and having my best jacket cleaned for Part 3 Sunday.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:33am From: gumby

must stay in seat, must stay in seat, am at work (although my whole body wants to dance to this cherry, cherry

Fri. 7/17/09 11:34am From: Parq

Yeah, Gumb, was that great or what?

Fri. 7/17/09 11:34am From: annie

mm... images of parq in tight jeans.. dancing is good!!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:36am From: dc pat

what's wrong with tight jeans??!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:37am From: annie

in a good way pat... although i'm a leg-woman myself..

Fri. 7/17/09 11:38am From: Parq

Oh stop!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:39am From: dc pat

did you see the Collins Kids?

Fri. 7/17/09 11:41am From: Brian Sanders

Have a groovy break, Doug. That Andwellas Dream took me back some. Feeling a bit down at the moment one of our chickens has just gone to meet its maker.

Fri. 7/17/09 11:41am From: annie

parq... :)
bummer brian!!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:43am From: dc pat

..I guess CollinsKids are tonight...love to see them. Wonder if Lorrie's voice is all husky now cuz of too much cigarette smokin?

Fri. 7/17/09 11:53am From: Listener James from Westwood

Doug, have a safe, restful, and memorable break. We'll miss you!

Fri. 7/17/09 11:54am From: Drummer Some

LJ from W and everyone,
Thanks a bazillion for "being there" and for being here when I get back.
