Liz B.:
Anyone have a wedding story for me? | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:20am
listener james from westwood:
a crazy-work-monday-belated thank-you, liz, for "echo beach." an old fave of mine from when WDRE/WLIR on long island played tons of 80s music/1-hit wonders. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:21am
Greg from Bloomfield:
My friend's (then) fiancee surprised him by hiring Eric Bachmann to play at the reception! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:24am
Liz B.:
Whoa, Eric Bachmann?? That is great/hilarious! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:29am
Liz B.:
Ever notice how they always play inappropriately themed songs at wedding receptions (infidelity, revenge, etc)? "Runaround Sue," "I Will Survive," and at this wedding I hit over the weekend, the radio edit of Cee Lo's "Fuck You" ("Forget You")! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:31am
Greg from Bloomfield:
"Hey Ya" has to be the king of those songs. Everybody ignores the "If nothing lasts forever / then what makes love the exception?" part and focuses on shaking it like a Polaroid picture. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:33am
still b/p:
A few decades ago, I saw the bride and groom (neither sober -- surprise!) fighting before the day's celebrating was done. I'm guessing that ain't so uncommon. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:35am
Chris T.:
I saw my old lacrosse coach doing a dance at a wedding that involved him using his shoe like it was a telephone | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:37am
Pat Byrne:
I once was asked to film a wedding for a friend and my battery died before the vows. I never gave them the footage out of embarrassment. True story. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:40am
Liz B.:
Ha ha, the shoe-phone dance sounds pretty good! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:40am
Greg from Bloomfield:
@Pat- a buddy of mine had a similar thing happen while shooting P Diddy for some vodka thing. Needless to say, Mr. Diddy was not happy. | |

Lonious Monk:
HELLO WFMU bonjour Liz *-* | |

ah geez I thought Art Museums were singing "Scharpling....Scharpling" | |

salut Lonious ! | |

Mon. 5/9/11 10:44am
Pat's Friend:
So THAT"s what happened! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:45am
Dominick:
A player piano playing all Beatle songs in the foyer of the reception hall broke into Lady Madonna just as the bride arrived. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:45am

great stuff great stuff | |

Good morning Liz and all the listeners. | |

I love The Limiñanas ; I wonder if their record is easy to find in the U.S.? | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:48am

@ Liz : no wedding stories, i just know a guy who married an irish woman, and they had a celtic wedding with like a druid doing the ceremony and all. I saw some pics, pretty neat. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:56am
still b/p:
A perhaps over-cautious bride once asked for friendly opinion on whether Smoke Gets in your Eyes might be unsuitable for the groom and bride's mother dance -- a wrong note to hit on the happy day: "Yet today my love has flown away, I am without my love." | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 10:58am
Carmichael:
Hi Liz and foreigners. Martha and her Muffins; enlightened choice! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:00am
Lonious Monk:
tell us more Pierre! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:01am
pierre:
"Rocket In My Pocket" by Jimmy Loyd is suitable/unappropriate @Lonious : that's it - just that. I wish, but no. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:05am
frenchee:
"smoke gets in your eyes" is one of my fave songs of all time. If you want an "eyeful" wedding song, I recommend "I only have eyes for you" tho. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:07am
helsingfred:
yes torture this miserable song, thank you !! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:08am
frenchee:
this is crazy unlistenable! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:08am

(oh, and salut @ Cheri Pi) | |

"Love is like a river." | |

Mon. 5/9/11 11:09am
Vinny in London:
Hi Liz, In regards to inappropriate songs at weddings, my friend told me that he was a wedding recently in Scotland and that the bride and her father had a solo dance to the song "Your sex in on fire" by Kings of Leon whilst pointing at each other. Creepy | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:09am
jojo:
where can i get that track that sounded like a dying record player? | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:10am
Liz B.:
Jojo, hit Ethan Persoff for that track: http://ep.tc | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:11am
still b/p:
There are highland flings, and then there are highland family flings. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:12am
βrian:
Ethan Persoff makes sadism almost understandable. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:13am
jojo:
i wanted that "is that all there is?" song at my wedding but was vetoed... | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:15am
Lonious Monk:
Calin - such a sweet band-name | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:17am
Liz B.:
Wait till you see the next band name! It is pretty amazing... | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:19am
jesse:
I've been enjoying these flogsta danshall 45s you guys are playing recently | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:21am
Lonious Monk:
oh!nice too! (by the way the two guys from Calin have also great pseudonyme : Mad Marx & Eddy Mitchum - and thanks for the discovery) | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:23am
still b/p:
Lazercrotch, if not careful, could be connected to Sex on Fire. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:23am
Liz B.:
Who came first, Lazercrotch or Sascrotch? | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:28am
paul:
saskrotch has been around since the mid '00s | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:29am
paul:
and he was wearing a Best Show On WFMU shirt last time i saw him, btw | |

R I S K Y !:
ROCKING SHOW LIZ! YEAAHHHHH TAKE EM TO THE ROCK RANCH! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:30am
jesse:
Hi Liz, I'm pretty sure this track is not by Morteza, it's by Toofan, called "Khodaye Asemoonha (God of the Skies)" | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:31am
jesse:
there is a youtube video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXqZ0QdH7Y0&feature=player_embedded | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:33am
Liz B.:
Thanks for the correction, Jesse, I guess the tracklist is totally incorrect for that one! | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:38am
jesse:
yeah, I'm not a Farsi speaker myself but I got that from someone who is, so take however you like. I think they had to press the record before that correction made it on there. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:47am
Ike:
At first I thought you typed "Scratchcrotch! GNFAB. But then I realized it was Saskrotch. That's a bit disappointing. Between the two, I say Lazercrotch is a much more awesome name. | |
|
Mon. 5/9/11 11:49am
βrian:
I just don't get why events information is still read aloud. Give 'em a URL and be done with it, I say. | |

Thu. 5/12/11 11:12am
Mariano:
Hey, I'm getting to your show a few days late, but it's just so perfect: my girlfriend's house is kind of in the woods, she's at work, and I'm sitting here with the front door open, working on my computer (I'm a graphic designer), and this show is providing the perfect soundtrack. Thanks so much, as ever! | |
