Sweet of you to point that out Annie. I was actually just playing some VERY repetitive buffer music until kicking things off. Sorry for the confusion. Please DO let me know whenever you think something's amiss. (I'm always the last to know.) | |

Here's a fun read - did you know that Richie Sambora wants Bon Jovi to be like the Rolling Stones? Makes you realize how great other music is and how much popular mainstream music sucks...http://www.billboard.com/news/bon-jovi-needs-a-break-when-tour-wraps-says-1005013892.story#/news/bon-jovi-needs-a-break-when-tour-wraps-says-1005013892.story | |

Saw Mama Rosin last night in London. The drummer was peerless to a standard that all your listeners know as give the drummer some, Doug. | |
|
Fri. 1/28/11 10:06am
Drummer Some:
I don't know Mama Rosin. Tell us about them. (The great Cajun accordion player Nathan Abshire does a song called "Mama Rosin" on which a 12-year-old girl (Little Yvonne LeBlanc) sings. Thrilling number.) | |
|
Fri. 1/28/11 10:19am
Hugo:
I think I might have that Mandy Morton record. Fine thing in any case. | |
|
Fri. 1/28/11 10:21am
Brian in the Doghouse:
Swiss band, guess they are named after the great Mr Abshires song. Young trio with what you might call a punkish attitude for the Swiss. Know their stuff, played their own songs plus Opelousas Soston. New record out now. Recommeded | |

Seang, I was just by the Henry Miller library (a bookstore and performance space, really) this past Saturday. A bit too fetishistic a place for my tastes, but still full of deep spirit and wonder. | |

listener james from westwood:
Doug, not sure if it was you, but I heard "Howl" in its entirety one very late night on WFMU sometime in the 90s. First time I'd heard Ginsberg read the whole poem. | |

Hopefully, you'll follow this with some Burl Ives. | |

Blissful thing: http://s.dsimg.com/image/R-555164-1137508424.jpeg Mine has a different cover, but otherwise identical, I think. I had planned to see Ginsberg, but contracted an illness which made me look like something out of a freak movie, so I stayed at home (to avoid contagion). Too bad. | |

Hello! You weren't on last Fri. I presume you were at a convention of worldwide drummers scheming to create a version of Stuxnet that'll sabotage the world's drum machines and then selling it as a job-creation plan? | |
