Tue. 2/15/11 12:01pm
Marcury:
Good morning, uh I mean afternoon. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:02pm
Tony C:
Thanks, Alf! Hello to all... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:02pm
BSI:
Two minutes late. Any coffee left? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:03pm
Drummer Some:
Tony's back, wowie zowie! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:03pm
Tony C:
Hi Marcury. This track is dedicated to Doug (whether he wants it or not) | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:04pm
Drummer Some:
All drum solos, all the time. You know how to impress Tony. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:06pm
Tony C:
Thought I'd go a bit gonzo for the first set.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:07pm
Marcury:
Give the drummer his due! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:07pm
Ike:
These drums have an oddly mellow, nice murky sound to them. Not sharp or distinct. Like a yummy porridge. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:10pm
Tony C:
Some New Jersey prog for ya.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:11pm
BSI:
tony coulter.... a closet skin-head? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:12pm
Tony C:
Aren't we all skin heads under our hair? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:12pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Greetings, Tony! Mahvelous show! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:13pm
Tony C:
Gracias, senor! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:14pm
BSI:
and thereunder, infinite space.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:16pm
Tony C:
Warning: the next track is *really* bonkers.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:19pm
Ricardo Montalban:
If by bonkers you mean *Freaking phantistic!* Wowzers! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:19pm
Marcury:
mmm... progalicius | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:20pm
Tony C:
Cowbell!! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:21pm
Mastedon Molly:
Tony is stuck in a 1970s time warp. (Thank God it's not the '80s.) | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:22pm
BSI:
Totally superior to 1980s cowbell! Hotdamn! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:25pm
Tony C:
Portland is kind of stuck in the '70s in a lot of ways, so it's been encouraging my own '70s fixation. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:27pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Portland has its niches of stuckness. A nineties one here, an eighties one here, a smattering of seventies over there under the fir trees. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:31pm
Tony C:
Just curious: setting aside my chest cold, does the mic sound better this week? Or worse? Or the same? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:32pm
Marcury:
Definitely sound better, though maybe a little loud. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:33pm
Tony C:
Thanks, Marcury -- and thanks for your suggestion that made that possible! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:34pm
BSI:
Better in the midrange than before, surely. Now, about this girl in a marmot's body.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:36pm
Tony C:
Don't lose your marbles.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:39pm
PMD:
Wow, was just listening to Liz's show - mellow, soft - and decided to switch over just in time to lose my marbles! Woke me up! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:40pm
Tony C:
Some Batman exploitation for you.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:41pm
mark:
Holy freeform radio! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:45pm
Ricardo Montalban:
MIC sounds loads better. Maybe a bit distorted and bassy, but much more clearer and less muffled than last week. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:46pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Rancid Vat! P-Town! Used to loathe/love them. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:46pm
Tony C:
Thanks, RM! One day I will achieve perfection -- and then I will drop dead the next day. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:46pm
Marcury:
Wow a cover of They're Coming... What will they think of next? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:47pm
Marcury:
BTW, glad to be of service! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:48pm
Tony C:
Some Portland no wave! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:49pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Rancid Vat were around for a long time. Sadly, undocumented on Mike Lastra's muddled Portland Punk documentary NW Passage | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 12:54pm
Tony C:
Batman returns! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:01pm
still b/p:
(Had a Batman suit. Shhh.) | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:04pm
Tony C:
Well, I spent hours singing the theme while sliding down a friend's batpole.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:09pm
Alf from Upstate:
Funny, you're playing Traffic and I feel congested. What a coincidence. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:10pm
Tony C:
Just wait until they start Traffic jamming. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:14pm
Tony C:
All hail Wyatt! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:20pm
Tony C:
Have some Jesus rock lined up for the next set. Say your prayers now.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:20pm
BSI:
Christ almighty! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:29pm
Drummer Some:
Tony, I assume you're familiar with the wonderful blog Heavenly Grooves. http://heavenly-grooves.blogspot.com/ | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:31pm
Tony C:
I am indeed, Doug -- though I haven't explored it that much. I can see it's a great thing, though! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:38pm
Tony C:
For the record: I do not believe, but like the sound of people who do. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:42pm
Ricardo Montalban:
I'm that way with UFO cult albums | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:43pm
Mastedon Molly:
I like that description Tony. "I don't believe, but like the sound of people who do." Nice! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:44pm
Ricardo Montalban:
I finally found Forrest McCullough's Flight F-I-N-A-L at a GoodwIll for 99 cents! Been wanting it for years. Passed on paying 12 bucks for it at Exiled Records. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:46pm
Tony C:
I need to find more records that combine Jesus and UFOs. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:48pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Yeah. Very few. Maybe the Elizabeth Claire Prophet stuff. Not sure. I think that the Unarians HAD TO of put out some kind of music. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:48pm
Tony C:
Thanks, Mastedon Molly! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:57pm
BSI:
RM: yes, that F-I-N-A-L record is a huge favorite. Great find for .99 | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:59pm
Tony C:
Someone take over while I get a cup of coffee. Back in a minute... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 1:59pm
BSI:
.............this....... is a stalling...... tape.......... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:06pm
Tony C:
Ooops! Kamen & Co are actually standing in front of Bethesda Fountain, not the bandshell. Bethesda Fountain was (in)famous as a place to score a variety of illicit substances.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:14pm
Tony C:
Vocals and cello by Arthur Russell on this Peter Zummo cut.... | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:18pm
Tony C:
Stay tuned for UFOs at the end of the set! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:25pm
Ricardo Montalban:
YAY! Streaming a 1966 CBS Walter Cronkite report on UFOs in the background (recording for audio project), so that'll be great. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:25pm
Ike:
This is ecstafabulexxelent. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:26pm
Tony C:
The UFOs have landed! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:26pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Have you heard Seattle's Gamelan X? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:26pm
BSI:
take me to your bleeder! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:27pm
Tony C:
Thanks, Ike! RM: Haven't heard Gamelan X .... will search for 'em. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:28pm
Tony C:
Oddly, I worked for two people performing on this track -- at separate jobs. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:31pm
Tony C:
Stay tuned for another phlegm-matic mic break on here on Give the Chest Cold Some. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:35pm
Drummer Some:
You could play some Jacques Brel. Wasn't he phlegmish? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:39pm
Tony C:
Speaking of which, I'll be in Belgium next month. Travel tips, anyone? | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:45pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Where did you find that Neil Dick?! Wow! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:46pm
Tony C:
From CD Baby, which is quite a source for current day outsider stuff. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:48pm
marcury:
Be sure to go to Bruges, in keeping with an earlier set there is a church wihich claims to have a vial of Christ's blood which is supposed to on occasion return to it's liquid state. At least i remember someone telling me that one night walking through the square there. Also drink lot's of Beer. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:50pm
Tony C:
Thanks for the suggestions, Marcury -- though the mixture of liquids is making me a bit queasy. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:50pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Here's someone I discovered on CDB, then had on my radio show, only to hear from his wife/manager every week for a year on how to make him a big star: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/theejh | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:52pm
Drummer Some:
I've been to Bruges! The Venice of the North. And my favorite restaurant here in Pittsburgh is the Point Brugge Café. Astonishingly good muscles and frites. And, yes, beer. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:53pm
marcury:
Just don't drink the blood. | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:54pm
Drummer Some:
Tune in to Give the Drummer Radio tonight at 6pm for the one-hour version of Give the Drummer Some. On this evening's show: A birthday special for my dear wife! | |
|
Tue. 2/15/11 2:55pm
Ricardo Montalban:
This has been an amazing show, Tony! Much thanks for making my desk-bound day much more interesting! | |
