Fri. 12/9/11 9:29am
still b/p:
Oh, Waters is also appearing in Maine about 2 miles from my house on Sunday, but I don't think I'll make it. Funny to see the appearance written up in local paper, complete with ref to Pink Flamingos scene of infamy and "adults only" emphasis. Loves me some cumbia. | |

I met Waters a couple times. The video store scene in "Serial Mom" was filmed at the video store I worked in when I lived in Baltimore. | |

Fri. 12/9/11 9:34am
listener james from westwood:
this is one of my absolute favorite gtds music beds. jill, totowa's a hop skip and a jump from me along rt. 80. b/p, if there's any way to make it out for waters, do it. he was a gas when i saw him at the chiller theatre horror con in nj. | |

Yeah, looked really cold. | |

Glad you are on the ball, Paul. Just got Miles' 'Get Up With It'. Your Destination Out Jeffs could become an expensive addition, Doug. | |

Infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me. | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:37am
ndbob:
a little bit Doug, but I think it's more the style. This one isn't bad - a lot of those early jubilee records are too formal and stilted for me | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:38am
glenn:
i watched a bit of that steelers game on t.v. it was awful. | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:38am

Hello there Van, how are you? LJFW, I love you EXTRA for having a favorite music bed. | |

BodegaMan:
I was listening to the last set thinking, 'Doug is really doing something different this week. It's not exactly what I tune in for, but I'll let the drummer man take me where he feels.' Then Scott McDowell started talking. | |

Paul Sherratt:
Van, Mad coworkers disease ? | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:41am
Doug Schulkind:
ndbob, I just love the old-style high-dcition style of early vocal singing. It is stilted, but it's such contained fury. | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:42am
Van in Dallas:
Exactly so :) | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:43am
Doug Schulkind:
Greetings, BodegaMan. Scott does a wonderful show. So glad he is holding down the fort in my "old" slot on the Mothership. | |

@BodegaMan - I have done that same thing more than once :) | |

No Paul, it's been mainly live stuff recently apart from Tartuffe. Putting off walk, bluddy cawd. | |

Fri. 12/9/11 9:47am
ndbob:
I do like it Doug for it's historical value... have you ever played anything from the "Earliest Negro Vocal Quartets" series? | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:50am
Paul Sherratt:
Tartuffe, Brian ? | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 9:53am
Doug Schulkind:
ndbob, I surely have played that Document series. I agree that that style is an acquired taste. But it tastes mighty fine to me... in the right quantities and contexts. | |

Never thought I would write this but America is leading with microbrewing at present. Though it was not difficult to improve from the multinationals. We used to have a brewer here called Watneys with a brew called Red Barrel. The joke was it was like making love in a punt, it was fu..ing close to water. | |

@Brian in UK Watney's may be canoe beer (as we say in the US), but it still much better than the swill that the major brewers produce here: Coors, Bud etc. Here in Albany there are signs that say "Man Up Albany Miller Lite" - Man UP Lite Beer?! | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 11:28am
Brian in UK:
@earwax like canoe beer tag, same piss different name. Wot no Desperadoes? | |
|
Fri. 12/9/11 11:30am
Carmichael:
I used to drink Watney's for a time here in the US of A, but made the switch to Boddington's. Then I walked into a microbrewery and had my 1st India Pale Ale. "light" beer is called near-beer here, and Coors is downstream beer. | |

As I remember Doug when I saw him; Tiny Tim was a tall fella to use as a drum but hey you chaps are resourceful. There are a powerful sound especially indoors. Heavier than a rock band, I kid you not. | |
