WFMU: The Dusty Show with Clay Pigeon: Playlist from November 10, 2011

Artist	Track	Album	Label	Format	Comments	Year
For this episode, I re-visited Zuccotti Park in Lower Manhattan to check-in on the nascent Occupy Wall Street encampment. This show was taped on Tues., November 8th, 2011. It feels good to follow this 'happening.' I'm glad you're here. Sorry about the skip during Home On The Range. Love to you all ... Clayton P (99%)
Opening Salvo
Note: The opening interview cuts-in roughly because, moments before deadline, I discovered that an excerpt from The Sandpipers, 'Guantanamera' had been digitally inserted directly on top of the Opening Salvo. Outside my window, a Grackle lights briefly on the sill, twitching nervously, eyeing me with a cocked head. A little gust of wind. He is gone.

When I speak about being involved in the 'de-escalation' I do it in kind of a self-aggrandizing way, which speaks to insecurity and need for approval, probably. Anyway ... I really just sat there while the artist berated Audrey. I certainly wasn't heroic.

Hello

Thu. 11/10/11 6:06pm Matt from Springfield:

Hi Clay!
A rarity, your playlist is open early, and Fabio's is the one that hasn't closed out yet! Duelling comment boards again?

Thu. 11/10/11 6:07pm glenn:

h'arya?

Thu. 11/10/11 6:07pm Clay:

Hi Matt and Glenn

Thu. 11/10/11 6:08pm kata:

hi Clay, and all.. Sun still shining here in Oregon. Glad you're keeping on the occupy tip..

Thu. 11/10/11 6:08pm dale:

evening clay.. don't know why no one occupied wall street back in 2009 when bailouts and cash for clunker baloney started. but the movement suffers from drum circle hippy image. they need to demand an audience with policy makers.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:09pm Clay:

Thanks Kata. Hope life is happy in Oregon!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:09pm kata:

I hope the occupiers can avoid a Lord of the Flies moment..

Thu. 11/10/11 6:10pm Clay:

They're figuring it out, Dale. Hope you are well, sir.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:10pm hamburger:

piggy was the 1%!!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:10pm david:

lol, "affordable health care really scares me"

Thu. 11/10/11 6:11pm Clay:

That made me laugh, too, David.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:12pm glenn:

nonsense. that's just fucking bullshit. the canadian health care is fantastic. yet another uninformed right wing american retard who should just shut the fuck up.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:12pm Matt from Springfield:

At least some Tea Partiers have found common ground and understanding with OWS. This couple isn't entirely free from irrational fears, but at least they seem independent of the greater Tea Party movement.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:13pm dale:

my sister lives in bush country (FLA) and she was terrified of an obama healthcare plan. she could care less that i can't afford helath insurance for myself, as long as she didn't have to chip in more for the coverage her husband gets working for bank of america.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:13pm Clay:

Enjoying your comments.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:14pm Matt from Springfield:

"Skiffle To The People: Washboard and Jug Band Songs from Occupy Wall Street, Vol. 1"

Thu. 11/10/11 6:14pm Adam:

This dude is a Real Fuckin New Yorker

Thu. 11/10/11 6:15pm dale:

this 20 year old probably works as a messenger. he has a 'job', not a future.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:16pm Clay:

Hello Adam!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:17pm Adam:

Greetings from Kentucky, Clay.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:18pm Clay:

Love Kentucky. Morehead. Berea. Alpaca Ranches, Black Barns

Thu. 11/10/11 6:19pm Matt from Springfield:

Shit--the Bob Avakian Cult, I hadn't heard them in a while and thought they'd left by now.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:19pm Adam:

I'm impressed and honored. Stop by any time!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:20pm cosmic matrix:

hello from rainy vermont peoples!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:21pm dale:

despite any truth communist literature might hold, it's distribution is ammunition for detractors to undermine the whole movement. republicans will have a field day with it.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:22pm Clay:

Love Vermont, Cosmo! Stowe is my all-time fave. Was married there. Bought a thrift store guitar in Putney.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:25pm Adam:

Clay's levity saves the day again

Thu. 11/10/11 6:26pm Matt from Springfield:

Married in VT? Not in the 'Skills, as you always rave about? :)

Thu. 11/10/11 6:27pm Clay:

No Matt. In Stowe.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:27pm mrmucho:

clay, thanks for documenting so carefully the past few weeks the overwhelming vapidity and cluelessness (to a man) of a typical OWS protester. pulitzer!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:28pm Clay:

Glad you've been listening, Mr. Mucho.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:29pm Matt from Springfield:

Clay Pigeon IS the only newsmagazine worth listening to!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:30pm cglenn:

diggin' it Clay

Thu. 11/10/11 6:30pm glenn:

much as i support the occupy movement, many of them do seem a couple sandwiches short. or stoned.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:30pm Clay:

TY friends.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:31pm cglenn:

i think Clay is showing the 'variety' of people there. It's a melting pot... kinda like... oh yeah. us...

Thu. 11/10/11 6:31pm david:

have u been down there glenn?

Thu. 11/10/11 6:32pm Ike:

I think they're no more (and no less) vapid and clueless than the average American. I doubt much will come of it, but kudos to them for trying something.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:32pm Clay:

Hear that, Ike. Hello to you. sir!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:32pm cosmic matrix:

Thu. 11/10/11 6:33pm cglenn:

Thu. 11/10/11 6:33pm fatty jubbo:

Wild Man Fisher came back to life to attend OWS?

Thu. 11/10/11 6:34pm dale:

Thu. 11/10/11 6:34pm Ike:

Hello to you too, Clay!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:34pm Clay:

Hey Fatty! Good to see you. Yeah, that Cryer yelled his voice off. I love it.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:34pm glenn:

Thu. 11/10/11 6:35pm fatty jubbo:

@Clay - First time commenter, long time fan!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:35pm Clay:

Welcome Fatty!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:35pm Matt from Springfield:

@Clay: The guy in need of a soothing hot toddy? :)

Thu. 11/10/11 6:36pm cosmic matrix:

oooo it may have been 4th.... he was a good-lookin' southern fellow with a smart hat! and a wife i think...? the organ was an EXCELSIOR COURIER 33 and i wuvved it

Thu. 11/10/11 6:36pm Clay:

Ha ha Matt!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:37pm cosmic matrix:

Thu. 11/10/11 6:37pm Clay:

TY Coz

Thu. 11/10/11 6:37pm Matt from Springfield:

@Fatty Jubbo: I remember seeing your name, with the show "Cake and Polka Parade".

Thu. 11/10/11 6:38pm cosmic matrix:

OMG

Thu. 11/10/11 6:39pm cosmic matrix:

this is HUMANITY ... con-fucking-verged ... what a phenomena

Thu. 11/10/11 6:39pm dale:

she was a hot southern blonde, he was black. it was a below ground sort of affair. i lived next door and bought a lot of stuff there. The 90's seem so long ago now.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:39pm Matt from Springfield:

@cosmic: To quote from my earlier comment, this is the "realest" show on radio.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:40pm kata:

music calms the savage Nicolaus Cage

Thu. 11/10/11 6:41pm cosmic matrix:

each era has its own signature vibration

Thu. 11/10/11 6:43pm Matt from Springfield:

Standing O to this guy!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:44pm Matt from Springfield:

"This is NON-NEGOTIABLE"

Thu. 11/10/11 6:44pm Clay:

oops

Thu. 11/10/11 6:44pm cosmic matrix:

this is an incredible show--great opportunity for interviews... @dale--coulda sworn he was a white dude. maybe that wasn't the owner. maybe it was 5th street. i'm stoned, i have no idea.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:49pm Clay:

They weren't allowed to use amplification.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:49pm cosmic matrix:

it's cool when the generations come together

Thu. 11/10/11 6:50pm david:

cassette tapes and social media- the great equalizers...

Thu. 11/10/11 6:51pm Clay:

Ha ha David. I am actually kind of ashamed of my $29 Radio Shack Micro-Cassette in this instance. Well ... not really.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:52pm glenn:

all the proof you need that neil young and stephen stills were the best parts of csny.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:52pm cosmic matrix:

never be ashamed of radio shack... golden magic... besides, feels like i was there in a lo-fi field recording sort of way

Thu. 11/10/11 6:53pm kata:

Clay I love your editing. Micro-cassettes rule!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:53pm Matt from Springfield:

YES! Rick Perry Blank Out clip!

Now Crosby and Nash are two more of famous connections to Clay.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:54pm Matt from Springfield:

The MUSICIAN Joe Walsh would never flip out like this! Ha ha!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:54pm Clay:

RIP Heavy D.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:54pm cosmic matrix:

WHOA what was that last one "or i'm gonna have to ask you to leave"??

Thu. 11/10/11 6:54pm david:

yeah i love the way the micro-cassette sounds

Thu. 11/10/11 6:55pm glenn:

rick perry could possibly be more insane than palin and bachmann.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:55pm Clay:

I have to go. Thanks y'all We ARE the 99% Always Remember

Thu. 11/10/11 6:55pm depressed Persian cab driver:

Surreal and very great. Somewhat encouraged and less depressed than normal thanks to you, Dusty...!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:55pm Matt from Springfield:

Today is a BINARY DAY! 11-10-11. Tomorrow is the last binary day of this century: 11-11-11.

It's also Veterans Day. Please think of them and the many sacrifices they've made since the U.S. was born.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:56pm glenn:

remembrance day here. somebody also called it nigel tufnel day.

Thu. 11/10/11 6:58pm Matt from Springfield:

@glenn: That's right glenn--this year anyway it can be Nigel Tufnel Day: We're taking EVERYTHING to 11!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:58pm Matt from Springfield:

Always Remembered - Never Forgotten!

Thu. 11/10/11 6:59pm cosmic matrix:

by the way COSMICMATRIXX.BLOGSPOT.COM

Thu. 11/10/11 6:59pm Listener Dave From Seattle:

Good show today

Thu. 11/10/11 6:59pm depressed Persian cab driver:

@ glenn- That's because the DOD and VA have helped us here in the US turn the 4th of July and every other holiday into Veterans Day. All needs and wants of all connected with the military must be funded forever, amen.

Thu. 11/10/11 7:00pm cosmic matrix:

tee hee

Thu. 11/10/11 7:02pm dale:

leave the latch string out and the dogs tied up, i'm coming home!

Thu. 11/10/11 7:18pm depressed Persian cab driver:

PS- Yes, Christmas and New Years are all about the suffering GIs in the several places they work for money, in a voluntary kinda way. And don't you dare eat Thanksgiving without praying for those defenders of your way of life (undefined here) who volunteered for lifetime benefits and combat pay to fly those nice drones and pay whores in faraway lands!
Upon returning soon, they will require job training. I hope not as cab drivers, because most of us now enjoy no government subsidies... we also lack the kill skills they have acquired abroad and doubt they can distinguish us from the "Hadjis" of their PTS nightmare worlds. Best to take the subway for awhile, dear listeners!

Thu. 11/10/11 7:52pm inuri:

depressed persian cab driver. dont worry, you are one of us

Fri. 11/11/11 5:49am J in Kzoo:

As long as you keep doing these occupy shows, I will keep telling my family and friends about your show

Fri. 11/11/11 8:41pm Platter Chatter:

@Clayton! Merrill Staton Choir, "Movin' West" Epic LN 34721 - recommended in Boys Life, Oct 1958.
