muhrvis:
Greetings from Eugene, OR. What was that wild "r-a-d-i-o" intro track? | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:08am
Joe McG:
Hey, Muhrvis! That's the Yip Yip Aliens discovering the radio, as I do each week. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:13am
coalhard:
you can see them on "my vidster"--too | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:16am
muhrvis:
Ah, cool! Thx! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:17am
Joe McG:
They can be seen on YouTube, as coalhard rightly points out. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:38am
coalhard:
if you want to see something really good go to youtube type in gentleman's duel (wow) --but save to favorites --listen to show currently playing!!!! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:41am
coalhard:
hit first listing on google search | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:53am
muhrvis:
you're stoned! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 12:54am
coalhard:
i don't like not commenting on the music ---which i will do right after i comment on cnn heroes---!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:03am
coalhard:
did you know there are about 80 (mostly college stations)--streaming on line--i sample all of em--but WFMU IS THE BEST BY FAR!!!!! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:04am
muhrvis:
Where do you find the best list of streamers? | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:08am
Matt from Springfield:
Hi Joe! Hey everyone! Lot of old electro stuff this block, or just the last two items? | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:09am
coalhard:

|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:10am
Joe McG:
Hey, Matt! Fairly recently. Doing the robot now. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:12am
Matt from Springfield:
@coalhard: There are a lot of streaming online stations--that college radio one is a good guide, but NPR stations also have high-quality streams, usually. WUOG and WXPN for example. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:12am
coalhard:
hey muhrvis--i have all these saved in winamp--just have to click on one instant music | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:14am
Matt from Springfield:
http://jrabold.net/radio/ Allegro! search This is a program-based NPR streaming search tool. I used to listen to these often, but I agree with you coalhard--with WFMU--and the ARCHIVES!!--I don't bother much with other stations anymore! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:15am
coalhard:
i grew up on npr-led me here | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:18am
Matt from Springfield:
I don't discount them entirely, for I also support the local Classical NPR station, but 'FMU is a friggin' godsend! I can search for the gems like before, or just pour the handfuls of WFMU gems down my pants--hells yeah! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:20am
Matt from Springfield:
@Joe: Do you have a lot of Bonzo or Neil/Vivian releases? I'm sure your demographic would like hearing them! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:21am
Joe McG:
Yeah, a few! You're right, they should get more airtime on my program. Note to self! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:25am
Matt from Springfield:
Thanks Joe! (flicks lighter) CANYONS OF YOUR MIND!!! Wooo! (Seeing "Neil/Vivian" side by side just reminded me that the characters from the Young Ones also had a few novelty records out.) | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:25am
coalhard:
now we have sirrus xm radio in car--love my 2010 ford | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:26am
Joe McG:
No prob, Matt! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:28am
Matt from Springfield:
@Joe: "Keynsham" is one of my favs, have it on vinyl! @coalhard: For driving around, XM is great--playlists like I imagine the original commercial FM once had. Matter of fact I would be stressed out if I had to rely on lugging CDs around every time I drove. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:30am
Matt from Springfield:
At Last the 1948 Show! featuring Cleese, Chapman, Marty Feldman and Tim Brooke Taylor. And a pretty chick! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:32am
coalhard:
i fart in my own general direction | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:33am
Joe McG:
Marty Feldman!! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:34am
Matt from Springfield:
My pleasure Joe! I have both sets on DVD. "Do Not Adjust Your Set" was more broadly-based entertaining, while the 1948 Show was probably closer to what Python became. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:35am
Matt from Springfield:
@Joe: Yes, Ol' Google Eyes pre-Mel Brooks! @coalhard: Yeah well, I bet your mother's not a hamster, nor does your father smell of elderberries. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:41am
Joe McG:
I just rewatched "Young Frankenstein" around Halloween and Marty carried away the movie for me this time, along with Gene Wilder's I'm-going-to-combust-any-minute performance. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:44am
Matt from Springfield:
Great Halloween viewing--I ought to remember to bring Young Frahnk-en-steen out around that time. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:46am
coalhard:
ok--EVERYBODY--BACK TO THE MUSIC---I WAS ALMOST SUCKED IN TO ALTERNATE UNIVERSE MYSELF | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:48am
Joe McG:
This one goes out to anyone in Union City tonight. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:50am
Matt from Springfield:
Karen sounded interesting, I wonder if she was part of anything else. Really diggin' the Blondie as well! @coalhard: You have an admirable sense of focus! On Irwin's playlists it's just a free-for-all of side-conversations, meta-jokes and stabs at conceptual humor using pseudonyms. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:52am
Joe McG:
Now's the time to get in those did-you-shoot-your-woman-down jokes in, fellas. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:52am
coalhard:
I NAILED MY PARROT ON HIS STICK LONG AGO | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 1:55am
Matt from Springfield:
Great classic country lyric! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:10am
Matt from Springfield:
And a great spot on animal cruelty--really more media need to mention that, more often than they currently do! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:11am
coalhard:
i love strays--wfmu was a stray once--i took her in --now -purrs constantly | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:14am
Matt from Springfield:
"Adopt a radio station--be there for them, and they'll always be there for you!" | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:16am
Joe McG:
We're very loyal! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:22am
Matt from Springfield:
I got an early day tomorrow so I will need to check out after this set. Thanks for your loyalty Joe, and this groovin' mix! I guess I'll just have to leave you and coalhard to your own devices! (Anyone else out there?) | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:24am
coalhard:
bye--love ya--take care | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:24am
Joe McG:
As always, thx for hangin' out, Matt! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:26am
Matt from Springfield:
Hmm, McDonald and Giles was a project of two of the original King Crimson members. This is a lovely album, will need to obtain, see if there's good linear notes to go with. Take care both of you, always glad to hang out with ya! | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:29am
coalhard:
matt --your a genius | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:36am
Derek B:
This is exactly how this time should sound, nicely done. | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:39am
Joe McG:
Thanks, Derek, glad you could join me this morning... | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:39am
coalhard:
i accidently sent my brain into outter space--i hit enter instead of shift--will send pictures of pluto | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:42am
Derek B:
I wore my 'Radio Bear' tee today and felt really cool while buying holiday crap from China; so I got that going for me... | |
|
Sun. 11/28/10 2:45am
Joe McG:
Wearing the Radio Bear is good in all kinds of situations, including buying crap. I was wearing mine the other day while doing the laundry. Maybe I didn't look cool, but I felt as if I did, which is half the battle. | |
