Fingerprinted for the 5th time in 40 years. Apparently agencies don't share stuff like that (until you commit a crime, I guess). First time I had them done, I had to go to an FBI office, pretty much had a full cavity search just to get to the fingerprint room. This time? Had them done in the sorting room of the Suitland MD post office by the same person selling stamps. Had that shady feel about it, like I was an expat trying to get some fake documents to get out of Manilla in the 60s

I never listened to the Waterboys much, I think. But I *did* listen to the Wonder Stuff, and I hear similarities. Though the Wonder Stuff just a tetch later?

Hi Listener Robert! I'd be willing to do that, sort of, when I'm back broadcasting at the station, but parodying Duane would be kind of lame, heh.

You could parody Ken's show, but then again, well...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:12pm
Ike:

IDK if there’s any FMU show you could really “parody”, is there? But maybe you could try to pick records with similar themes but a different style… or something? Musical counterpoints?

Amazing how this sounds so 2000s, and the ones from the 1990s (coming up) sound so 90s, heh.

That must've been a great tour, David! Didn't see them until a bit later. Mike Scott had an amazing solo show here at Merkin Concert Hall and I (Michael) saw The Waterboys here when they played the short-lived Fleadh festival one year on Randall's Island and again two nights in a row at The Garage in North London a year or two later. Love!

Not so much parodied, I guess, but paralleled, maybe? But then what would be the point of that?

Terry Reid in 1991-is that the same guy with the explosive voice late 60's? If so, voice not what it was (but he does sing the hell out of the tune nevertheless).

Same Terry Reid from the 60s, yeah.

Mary Wing:

Looks like he slept through the 80s though, no records released in that decade.

Terry 'I turned down Led Zep AND Deep Purple' Reid. Kudos (though smaller bank balance).

Haven't been to London in ten years but often came for months long stays back in the day. And LOVED The Garage. Many great shows there!

I was hoping the rain would get rid of the smoke smell, but as someone on Twitter put it, “The air has changed flavor, from Tangy Mesquite to Cool Ranch.”

But not actually that good. At all.
