  Fri. 7/29/11 3:05pm Cecile:

  Fri. 7/29/11 3:05pm Van:

That picture...it keeps HOUNDING me...
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:06pm Looms:

ditto
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:08pm Cecile:

  Fri. 7/29/11 3:09pm Looms:

A good basset is a sleeping basset.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:09pm zental case:

What is the sound of one hound creeping (you out)?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:09pm Shirley Basset:

That's definitely a basset.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:11pm hamburger:

howdy doody people... I was going to do a pun too but decided not to.. it was just that bad.. it was... asthoundingly bad.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:11pm Angela:

It's in our eyes.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:12pm still b/p:

Is that what the BHA in my cereal ingredients stands for?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:16pm ?:

hamburger, let's have it!

hi, everyone!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:16pm G:

Does the Shiva chant mean the destroyer god now comes for us in the form of an ever-staring basset hound?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:19pm hamburger:

I think it means the destroyer god's coming over for breakfast for some cereal?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:19pm DJKG:

oops, that blankname was me!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:19pm Jacqueline Basset:

I've done so much good work, but everyone remembers me for the dogpaddling-in-a-T-shirt scene in The Deep.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:20pm Basset Hound:

[mounts Jacqueline's leg]
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:21pm hamburger:

wait.. GOD spelt backwards is DOG. and BASSET HOUND spelt backward is SHIVA IN MY CEREAL! it must be a sign...
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:22pm hamburger:

(I've got f-ed up handwriting)
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:23pm pierre:

i LOVE your show Kurt, Bonjour !
Bonjour to all listeners de ouf !
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:23pm Basset Men:

Who let the dog out?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:24pm Cecile:

I like Sly. I like Steve Bernstein's music. And I like you, Kurt. But this was awful.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:26pm northguineahills:

I'm going to concur on all accounts w/ Cecile.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:27pm still b/p:

If MTO covered Dance to the Music, I would listen....with a slightly tense curiosity.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:29pm Cecile:

this is worse
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:30pm Basset Men:

tough room.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:31pm another bassett band:

Ears for Fears:
"Every-body wants to drool the world."
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:31pm Van:

This song gets one woof
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:33pm Bass-It Hound:

it's got a good beat and i can wag to it.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:33pm Joe Tics:

Stubby Legs and All!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:35pm WTF:

Kurt... bring on the best of the worst!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:38pm le_screech:

yes!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:38pm Van:

Had this been an actual emergency...
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:38pm all bassetts everywhere:

Nooooooooo!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:38pm le_screech:

(ikeda!)
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:38pm Ike:

Hey @WTF, Billy took the summer off. He'll be back. In the meantime, his archives are here:

Cold!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:39pm water:

freezing!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:40pm hubba:

nothing like some low-end rumble to get the bowels moving...
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:40pm 0 °C:

Ice ice baby
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:41pm Today's guest of honor:

How does that convert to Scentigrade?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:42pm Basset Approaching:

I sniff your butt, that's how.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:47pm Looms:

What a classic! :)
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:49pm BodegaMan:

I've missed this show the past 2 weeks.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:49pm Van:

Two paws up
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:51pm DJKG:

welcome back, bodega!
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:55pm bruceleh:

Bassets? Did you say 'Basset Hound' ???
http://tbogg.firedoglake.com/tag/basset/
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:56pm hamburger:

if a basset hound farts in a pound and there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:57pm Lonely Flatulent Basset:

*I* can definitely hear it.
  Fri. 7/29/11 3:58pm hamburger:

can't prove it you gassy basset
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:01pm Lonely Flatulent Basset:

If someone chops hamburger up for bassets to eat and no one else is there, do its agonized screams make a sound? O:-)
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:03pm still b/p:

Gassy Bassett - good name for a band.
Gassybassett - good name for a New England shore town or river.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:03pm worterbuch:

  Fri. 7/29/11 4:05pm German:

Polwechsel = Pole Exchange
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:10pm Richard from Venezuela:

This ECM Collaborations. Pure gold. Greetings Kurt and all the listeners.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:11pm Warrant:

We saw on Joe McGasko's comments last Saturday night that you love our signature song "Cherry Pie". Kewl!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:16pm DJKG:

OMFG! WARRANT?!? I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU LISTEN TO MY SHOW!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:17pm Warrant:

You rawk man. Maybe no pie songs fit in here, but I bet some of them abstract type tunes are at least about pi or something.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:18pm DJKG:

TOTES! U R 2 COOL!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:28pm Warrant:

m (> <) m
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:33pm Cecile:

DJKG did you get the minotaur pics?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:34pm hamburger:

ouu I totally forgot about the mini-minotaur figurines talk from last week
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:35pm bruceleh:

ok, you got hatology, ECM, Leo, how about some EMANEM?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:37pm Cecile:

Well, there are those, but no, I got great Mall of America minotaur and iPod game pics.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:38pm Cecile:

yeah, bruceleh, I loved that movie 8 Mile.

;P
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:38pm bruceleh:

I'm talking about the Bittacy Rise EMANEM
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:39pm Cecile:

I know.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:40pm hubba:

ha ha!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:41pm J J:

This song is ridiculous. I'd be laughing my ass off if I were witness to the recording of this.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:41pm bruceleh:

I know you know.
I just love using the words "Bittacy Rise"
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:41pm DJKG:

cecile: no pics. where did you send them?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:41pm hubba:

What's going on? I've been working, go figure... connection was lost, so I see (don't see) there are pictures of mini-taurs?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:42pm Cecile:

your g-mail address. I can't attach pics via the station email.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:43pm DJKG:

right. wait - hold on...
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:43pm hubba:

also, Kurt, when djs play something off of youtube, like on Irwin's show, do they have to pre-record or can they play it right off the puter to the airways...
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:45pm hubba:

you so nasty
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:45pm Cheri Pi:

My theme song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:45pm moose:

i picked up a copy of 'the sun' (us tabloid) because there was a half-dog half-cat story- it's called a 'cog' and it's a bassett hound's head on a big tabby cat's body... can't find pics online to share for some reason...
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:45pm hubba:

Now: Traktor!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:46pm DJKG:

cheri! i was hoping you were listening!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:48pm Cheri Pi:

Totally "jazzed" for my big friday night now!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:48pm hubba:

Well, this is like the other night when I sang a duet to "18 and Life." Followed by "You got Another Thing Comin'", and then Male/female duet of "Close My/Your Eyes Forever."
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:50pm DJKG:

uh, cecile, i don't know you by another name, do i?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:51pm Cheri Pi:

hubba: , that sounds like the perfect trilogy, bringing them up to the sky, then putting the baby to bed. I would have been in tears towards the end of the ballad.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:52pm Cecile:

chefcmc?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:53pm DJKG:

no - i got some minotaur pics from another listener, and sometimes you listeners have multiple names without me knowing it. but no, no minotaurs from cecile. perhaps in my spambox, which is huge but i'll check. can you p.m. your email address?
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:54pm Cecile:

sure!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:56pm hubba:

Funny thing, I brought my singing partner to tears when I accidentally poked her in the eye.

I was trying to add a bit of choreography to the finale.
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:59pm Cheri Pi:

That's hilarious!
  Fri. 7/29/11 4:59pm bruceleh:

I can barely tolerate this sort of rock, but strangely, I do love to listen to stuff like "Skin Graft"
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:02pm Cheri Pi:

Brian Turner has threatened to play Warrant...
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:02pm hubba:

What are some other good freeform stations?
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:03pm hubba:

Kurt, Warrant is from Sheboygan, little know fact.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:04pm Cheri Pi:

I was NEAR Sheboygan a few weeks ago, and I could feel that Warrant was nearby.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:05pm hubba:

Warrant, NJ
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:05pm hubba:

You could feel it in your brat...
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:08pm hubba:

as in bratwurst... some minor clarification here
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:10pm T-Zero:

@Hubba: In the US? You could try University of Colorado student freeform radio, but it's AM and can be hit or miss as they don't really provide program descriptions, just who the presenters are. Or KUSF in Exile out of San Francisco. (It also depends on what you mean by "good" lol)
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:12pm DJKG:

hahahaha! did i just besmirch an nj band on wfmu?!? OOPS!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:13pm DJKG:

BT ain't got the STONES to play WARRANT!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:13pm hubba:

Well, the bar is pretty high with WFMU... if not freeform, then some type of internet programming, including podcasts or blogs... I'm also a fan of KDVS, which is a local freeform station, but I've never really heard anything much else...
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:13pm Ike:

2nd vote for KUSF in Exile, streaming with WFMU's help at:
http://wfmu.org/kusf.pls
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:16pm T-Zero:

Ike: Is that the same as http://216.118.106.243:8000/ if you're using windows media play? It won't autoplay pls files unless you save the pls as a text file and extract the url (which is what I did ;) )
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:18pm Ike:

Let's see... yep! TZhat's it exacT-Zly!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:18pm T-Zero:

Cool. Thanks.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:20pm hubba:

What about KPFA in Berkeley, that is free speech radio, and it is further up the dial, 94.1... I used to love going over the Bay Bridge and getting KUSF in loud and clear... my mind would usually begin melting and the car would drift into another lane.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:21pm Freeform WFMU Pizza Box:

You've tried the rest, now try the best.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:21pm T-Zero:

@hubba: Well, with those standards I don't have any other suggestions, as the other freeform stations I listen to regularly don't have forums like this or archives. Sometimes I listen to KEXP but it depends with them on the show and presenter. Some I like, some bore me to death.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:23pm T-Zero:

@hubba: KPFA I don't know. Never listened.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:25pm Ike:

Oh, I almost forgot WNUR in Chicago. It's wnur.org.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:27pm hubba:

There is just too much stuff, period... I just wanted to see what everyone else taps into when not glued here. Thanks for the info T-Zero & Ike... I didn't know KUSF was still broadcasting
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:27pm hubba:

WNUR, is that Northwestern's station?
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:27pm Frank:

Where you been living, Reseda?
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:29pm T-Zero:

I like Radio One (Otago Univ in New Zealand, but with the time difference, what I like is usually on really late.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:29pm Tom P.:

It's a long day, livin' in Reseda
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:30pm Ike:

Yeah, WNUR is Northwestern.

Not into talky stations like KPFA overall, but I see they've still got Over the Edge after all these years, so that's neat. Looks like there are archives, too. Wow.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:32pm Weather Machine:

It's the fucking summer, people. Jeez.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:32pm hubba:

too soon!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:33pm T-Zero:

WFMU really is the best.
re: Otago - they don't have any archives which is the pitts with the 12-hour times difference
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:34pm T-Zero:

BTW: Generally, I can't listen to this kind of stuff at length either, and this is the first time I've listed to Minotaurs, but I've been liken it.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:34pm Ike:

LOL Kurt saying "...so if you were killed by a tornado last night, then I apologize...." Hee.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:36pm hubba:

my condolences... and stuff.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:38pm DJKG:

T-0, thx!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:41pm Seminal:

howdy from near Chicago
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:41pm T-Zero:

DJKG: Yep. Take a bow. Usually I like it only a track or two at a time. But your selections have kept it interesting rather than making me tense and gritting my teeth. lol
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:43pm T-Zero:

Odd how in my 20s I couldn't stand it all, but now in my mid 50s I'm developing an interest since finding WFMU.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:43pm DJKG:

damn. i was aiming for tense and teeth-gritting!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:43pm DJKG:

(T-0, do you mean blues? metal? not sure which part you didn't hate!)
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:46pm nannythek:

Kurt - first heard J.Spence on WBAI in the 60's. I think on Larry Josephson's morning show. Maybe late nite on Bob Fass. I was 13. Been listening to him ever since,
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:47pm Cecile:

hubba, I can recommend WCBN in Ann Arbor. Stationmaster Ken's first radio gig. And I DJed there a million years ago as well.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:48pm DJKG:

yeah, spence is phenomenal!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:49pm Cecile:

the pics should be in your g-mail now, Kurt.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:49pm T-Zero:

By "stuff", I meant hard metal and the more experimental noise and really violent compositions. Although I've always liked Bauhaus and proto-punk post-punk groups for the most part. And I do like doom/death metal, but usually only in small amounts, not for 3 hours.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:51pm DJKG:

actually, me too, t-0. not much of anything i want to hear for three hours. except morton feldman, maybe.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:51pm DJKG:

cecile: got yr email. thanks!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:54pm Cecile:

Enjoy, Kurt! It's funny how my first and last crappy camera pix of the Lego one were the best.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:54pm T-Zero:

@DJKG: morton feldman -- agreed.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:56pm Cecile:

I can listen to a whole hell of a lot of house music at one sitting.
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:58pm Mike East:

have a great weekend everybody!!!!!!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:58pm Cecile:

you too, Mike East!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:58pm hamburger:

it's over now! thanks for the fun Kurt!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:58pm le_screech:

goodbye hound!
  Fri. 7/29/11 5:59pm hubba:

You rule Kurt! Thank you for da tunes!
  Fri. 7/29/11 6:00pm T-Zero:

@Cecile: Yeah, so can I. Especially goa/psy-trance. And shows like Mary Wing's. Her show is actually not long enough for my taste. (No offense KG). ;)
