Woohoo! Im all in this week.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:01pm
Vicki:
evening!
Wed. 9/9/09 7:06pm
young colleague:
Just so I know, are these UK or American customs/quarantine regulations?
Wed. 9/9/09 7:06pm
Vicki:
I think Ken and Andy just wore everyone out. Feel free to keep pasting record stores. In fact paste blogspot sites instead.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:07pm
Vicki:
Australian
Wed. 9/9/09 7:09pm
German Shepherd Dog:
that isn't fair
Wed. 9/9/09 7:10pm
Ike:
That BMG end user licensing agreement as sung by a women's choir was comedy gold. I just discovered there's more stuff by that dude on the Free Music Archive. Cool.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:11pm
Ken From Hyde Park:
Say, is there a record store near me where I could go to purchase this recording?
Wed. 9/9/09 7:12pm
Vicki:
there's some Brian Joseph Davis on Beware The Blog too
Wed. 9/9/09 7:12pm
Vicki:
yes, this show could be all about where the hell you get this stuff :)
Wed. 9/9/09 7:14pm
G:
Was that the first *movement* :-P
Wed. 9/9/09 7:15pm
Vicki:
last week's show was called "three piece suite with several movements"
Wed. 9/9/09 7:16pm
irene:
nice stick work
Wed. 9/9/09 7:18pm
irene:
is that true??
Wed. 9/9/09 7:19pm
Vicki:
yes
Wed. 9/9/09 7:20pm
:):
ASDF is even better
Wed. 9/9/09 7:21pm
young colleague:
that is asinine. though i can't imagine such a thing passing.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:21pm
Vicki:
ASDF - oh that German group from the 80s
ha
Wed. 9/9/09 7:22pm
zipthwung:
this filesharing will not stand
Wed. 9/9/09 7:23pm
:(:
i imagine it would;d be really hard to police, hence the resistane from ISPs.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:23pm
Vicki:
I haven't imagined a lot of things passing. I agree I can't imagine it. However, the fact that my country's government even proposed such a thing means at first they imagined it. And yes, everyone, I agree. They would never win
Wed. 9/9/09 7:23pm
;):
nice typing by me. no, just was trying to make a bad keyboard joke.
Great show btw
Wed. 9/9/09 7:25pm
zipthwung:
they could pay filesharers to police themselves, because it takes one to know one.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:28pm
Vicki:
I just feel a sense of dismay that governments don't even see the first hurdle in an argument, enough to keep their mouths shut. They can't even do a proper bit of research - they only asked about 200 people what they thought
Wed. 9/9/09 7:28pm
secret sharer:
the horror, the horror
Wed. 9/9/09 7:28pm
texas scott:
and another "Artist " on the plinth...
ukeleles RULE!!!
Wed. 9/9/09 7:28pm
young colleague:
perhaps it just posturing; by just proposing it, a fear tactic.
Wed. 9/9/09 7:29pm
Vicki:
ukeleles DO rule, and so does getting annoyed sometimes, can make a good radio show! Oh - what are they doing on the plinth at the moment? Please do tell
Wed. 9/9/09 7:31pm
Vicki:

Wed. 9/9/09 7:34pm
Vicki:
strange sounds outside the window here... gone midnight... and a near neighbour has taken to practicing little bursts of opera - 7am... 1am..., but she sounds like a theramin. Took months to work out it was a human
Wed. 9/9/09 7:34pm
wobbly:

Wed. 9/9/09 7:35pm
Vicki:

Wed. 9/9/09 7:53pm
wobbly:
vicki did you see someone did a youtube version of the time sweep? it's a different edit, not as smooth as Ford's but it's got images
I got the Mark Ford / Drake-Chenault interview from Bill Ingram, who is one of the three people I know who did updates of Ford's original 1955-1981 Sweep. I think it was part of the original 52 hour History of Rock and Roll documentary (of which the Time Sweep was the big ending)
Wed. 9/9/09 7:53pm
