So crazy that Herrmann's career began with Citizen Kane and ended with Taxi Driver. Scorsese said the last time he talked to him he was in the middle of editing TD, and Herrmann suggested to play that final horn sting backwards.

Listener Robert:

The "tote board" is very good news. I'm assuming (someone can correct me if I'm wrong) that the "rollbacks" that occurred in the previous 2-3 spring marathons were corrections to double counting of pledges stemming from the volunteer phone room operation, and so since there's only limited phone room operation this year, rollbacks will probably not occur, meaning the tote board we see is accurate, albeit running a little behind, so on average at any given time there's a slight UNDERcount.

At the rate incoming pledges have been reported so far, Auricle is in that enviable situation Maximum Leader Ken has occasionally mentioned in the past, whereby they might wind up with EXTRA that could be spent on projects. I've been joking in these comments about using it to purchase WSHU and/or WFUV, but possibly Ken can inform us of some serious things that could get done with a surplus.

Thanks, Dave. Ken has explained that there had been miscalculations having to do with accounting for SFL, but that that problem has been surmounted.

Some "rain makers" on the schedule have yet to come up (I'm thinking of Yo La Tengo), but even a conservative projection that doesn't take that into account says this marathon will be looking at a stretch goal like last October's.

1993, I go to lunch with my new boss and standing in the queue in the shop in Kilburn, Brian Eno walks past. He looks over and says ‘Hi Eileen’. I look at her in amazement. “How the **** do you know Brian Eno?!” Turns out they were next door neighbours.

As a kid I loved watching The Monkees show. I felt like I was supposed to not like it/the music for some weird reason.

Been busy working, but I just want to chime in that I have an old DVD-R of a couple of the Irritainment specials that I got at Kim's back in college (long before I listened to WFMU!). I have probably shown it to everyone who has set foot in my apartment more than once in the past 15 years.

Hey stephaniepc! It sure is beautiful there. I am not sure if it was on a corner--it was quite awhile ago in the early 90s. It might have been a Lions Club or something but it was really cool and fun. My best friend lives in Asoten, WA, and I was visiting her.
