This show is a piece of cake...for the drummer. |

Matt from Springfield:
Hello Doug! Hi LJfW! Going to have dinner with the folks tonight so I'll have to walk out early. But it's always a pleas to catch even some of your show live! | |

Doug Schulkind:
Hey hey Matt from Springfield! Always great to read you! Grab a party gift bag on your way out. |

Tue. 4/17/12 5:39pm
Matt from Springfield:
Awesome Doug. The Archive won't melt if I leave it in my car, either. | |

Doug Schulkind:
You might wanna cover it up, though. Hate to get your window smashed by a music junkie. |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 5:44pm
Matt from Springfield:
I'll place it in a closed compartment, and put a WFMU bumper sticker on the back to re-direct junkies to the plentiful streams on the website. | |

Doug Schulkind:
NO, Matt, the music junkie is probably an FMU DJ. Liable to act irrationally. |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 5:48pm
Matt from Springfield:
Ha ha, in that case I should probably expect Fabio frantically searching cars for the cassette Brian T took from his car without asking! | |

Actually, it was an 8-track. |

Matt from Springfield:
"Straight No Chaser"--one of those names I've heard quite a bit, but not familiar with. Evidently it was originally Theolonious from 1951. | |

Artie, this may just be the most avant thing Han has ever played (for him). @Matt Yup. |

I don't mean to be ruud, oh yes I do: Ruud Jacobs on bass... |

(chug) Aaaah, but indeed, straight is the only way proper way to take jazz. | |

Excellent solo, excellent space to perform solos in. | |

Drumboxing! Listen to that force! | |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 6:21pm
Carmichael:
If I'm doing the math right, he was about 28 when he was playing this. | |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 6:27pm
Matt from Springfield:
Gotta head out now, thanks Doug for throwing Han a nice birthday party! (grabs bag) Mmmm, Archive looks tasty, I know what I'll be having later. See everyone later! | |

That's right, Carmichael. 28 yrs and about six weeks. |

Wow Doug - what a horrible story - I'm a Type 2 diabetic and don't take insulin, but my nephew is Type 1 - orange juice is the best quick fix for low blood sugar. | |
|
|
♥
Tue. 4/17/12 6:50pm
Doug Schulkind:
I was actually getting orange juice into him (we had it in the fridge for this very purpose), but he wasn't reviving. The big-ass hypodermic worked within seconds. My roommate went from catatonic to asking what's for dinner in a flash. Terrifying and fascinating. |

Doug Schulkind:
Looks like the show is going to be closer to 70 minutes than 60. Hope that's OK with y'all. I suppose it only makes sense on Bennink's 70th. |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 6:53pm
listener james from westwood:
at least he was foresighted enough to have briefed you on it, so you'd have the right response at hand. 70 is only proper, i'd say! | |

Tue. 4/17/12 6:55pm
Doug Schulkind:
If my roommate had been black, I'm not so sure the paramedics would've been as quick to believe that he wasn't a junkie. Even WITH me producing his bottle of insulin. |

triish:
Better music minutes than burning candles. Or diabetic shocks. | |
|
Tue. 4/17/12 6:59pm
ndbob:
Yep Doug - it's amazing how fast recovery can be. | |

One more 3-minute gem after this should take us to about 7:06ish. |

Well you take good care, ndbob. Same goes for every sweet set of ears out there. |

listener james from westwood:
muchas gracias, doug, and happy 70th, han! | |

My sugar has been good lately - just take my meds and eat junk food in moderation. | |

Once again, it's that time of the day, when GTDS is taking over my airwaves, in the ether listening to the archive. Time to find out the deal on Han here, the great vibrational manipulator. Boom sphlat. :) | |

Doug Schulkind:
You may be saddened to learn that I did not play any of Han's performances on his drum set made of cheese. A quick scan of Youtube will remedy that... | |

Van in DC:
Well eDAM! :) Enjoying this! Pulled up WKCR's website...never heard of them before. | |
