Father of two teenage daughters sez...that dog-walking guy may have had a point. But he should have kept it to himself in any case.

Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 11:37am DeemerDave:

Let's see, $9.00 for a 6-pack, $12 for a haircut, and the rest on chewing gum. My day is all planned now. Thanks Chase!

Dave - settlement for what?
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 11:42am DeemerDave:

Hi Mike. Some class action suit in Cali. Apparently Chase was overcharging their credit card customers. I got $25 bucks, the lawyers got the rest.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 11:43am Mike Sin:

Good morning, Michael.

Minor correction: "Mercybeats" should actually be "Merseybeats"

Marlena Shawn possibly the longest record you've played, Michael?
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 11:51am DeemerDave:

Maybe I should start a class action against Comcast. I'll bet that's worth at least $30.

NATE - why even think of being ashamed? This is a #1 hit!
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:05pm glenn:

@glenn - Its not treason for you not to like 2112?

Love that Phil Baugh. Reminds me of that Hank Crawford song where he imitates those 50s guitar greats
  Sat. 3/2/13 12:11pm mark in toronto:

this phil baugh track is great. it brings to mind the great Bill Kirchen doing "Hot Rod Lincoln" on Hot Rod Lincoln Live, on Hightone

so glenn - is Butter Chicken really recommended? I have the option here for $11.95. I've never had it. Spicy?
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:12pm glenn:

mark in to, have you had the awesome butter chicken roti from gandhi?

Re: Bo Diddley -- TIL "Bo Diddley" was recorded at Chess studios, March 2, 1955. Also happy birthday Lou Reed and Dr. Seuss.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:14pm G:

I call groundhog day, one month late.

We had the hate-Rush/Rush-is-ok argument on bryce yesterday in this time slot, in efd on weds night, etc. :)

What *is* it about Rush? Why not hate on Kansas every so often? :)
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:14pm DeemerDave:

Any Muffs today, Michael?
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:16pm glenn:

because rush gets mentioned a whole lot more than kansas? it's also my contention that all bands named after places suck.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:17pm Michael Shelley:

the movie about Rush is great - but their music doesnt work for me
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:18pm Mike East:

@G - probably because die hard Kansas fans are harder to come by than die hard Rush fans. I think haters tend to hate more passionately when the fans love more passionately and the hater disagrees. me, I'm in the middle. I went through a Rush phase in highschool and I'll own that, but I totally understand why people think they're lame.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:18pm G:

so that really just pushes the analysis back a stage in the process -- i.e., why don't people mention kansas or 80s genesis or whatnot more, so they can share the hate? :)
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:18pm DeemerDave:

I have a soft spot for Boston and early Chicago is pretty damn good.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:19pm Mike East:

Oh, I've done my share of Genesis hating.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:20pm Parq:

Possibly the only number one hit ever about an order of protection.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:20pm G:

@Mike: I'm with you re passion/hating.

I can see worthwhile things and failings about anything, so I just don't make a good rooter.

When I go a baseball game, I'm polite (and cautious) and cheer for the hometeam.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:20pm Mike East:

who opened this can of worms, damnit?!
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:21pm G:

@Mike: But have you been in three 80s Genesis pro-and-cons on the board here in 3-1/2 days? :)
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:21pm Michael Shelley:

For your lunch?
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:22pm Mike East:

(rimshot)
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:22pm DeemerDave:

Sorry Mike, I mentioned 2112 knowing that it would cause a ruckus.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:22pm G:

@Mike: Glenn said he hated long sings, and voila, Rush:

"DeemerDave:

glenn: In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida. 2112..."
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:23pm G:

and you were RIGHT :)
  Sat. 3/2/13 12:23pm mark in toronto:

I just read the fake Zombies blog. It's very funny, well written, and the pictures are great.
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:26pm DeemerDave:

Wish my boss Jagruti were listening. She would love this Amit Kumar song. I'm favoriting this one.
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:26pm Juke Joint Jonny:

Is this in Pig Latin? Umbernay unway ithay
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:30pm Mike East:

ok, I ordered the butter chicken w/ garlic naan and some vegetable pakora. This better be good, glenn.
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:33pm Michael Shelley:

Mike - are you cooking for WFMU this marathon? AND are any of you folks answering phones on Saturday?
Avatar ♥   Sat. 3/2/13 12:34pm Mike East:

@Michael - I wish! I offered to bring some bagels, but I would have to bring Lucie (my wife works on weekends). Scott advised against bringing a baby from personal experience. Next year for sure!
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:35pm DeemerDave:

Kind of far for me to drive Michael. I hope I can join you someday though.
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:39pm DeemerDave:

So Juniper wants to call Justin Bieber?
Avatar Sat. 3/2/13 12:39pm ChooChoo - ATL:

Thanks for the Ardent/Big Star article. Memphis is very important to me, I enjoyed the history. I shared it with others.
