Listener comments!

  3:16pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

s t e r e oooooo
  3:16pm
Cecile:

Ah, great stuff, Fabio.

An idea for a show title: "the touch, the feel of Failure, the fabric of our lives"?
  3:17pm
ken:

Listening today! RIP Roland Kayn, glad your giving this genius some airplay!
  3:18pm
Pantagruel:

Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more...
  3:20pm
BSI:

some of us are born into failure.
others have failure thrust upon them.
  3:21pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I notice that whenever I open a new internet tab it kills the Flash feed. Maybe my machine is overtaxed.
  3:22pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

tramps like us, baby we were born to fail
  3:22pm
Cheri Pi:

Roland Kayn's music has a life of it's own.
  3:24pm
VCS3:

death is life/failure is suckcess
  3:30pm
tr/.sh:

the bastard child of falling
  3:31pm
hank:

yup... on the nood... in 14242
  3:32pm
jolly mi:

"Dead Corporate Eyes" is almost always on the comment page. Does s/he have a job? Unemployed? Hmm...Or, are they a WFMU staffer?!!
  3:33pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I have a job I don't have to work very hard at, most of the time
  3:34pm
jolly mi:

Thanks, DCE. Now back to the music.
  3:35pm
ken:

Is this A7-2 the piece Kayn played on?
  3:36pm
Looms:

  3:38pm
ken:

Thanks Looms, GREAT SHOW MISTER SHARPE!
  3:42pm
hank:

prophecy strikes afternoon...
  3:43pm
BSI:

some are born with dead corporate eyes.
others have dead corporate eyes thrust upon them.
  3:44pm
Handsome Harry:

Amen, Dead Corporate Eyes. Amen.
  3:54pm
AnAnonymousParty:

Why are violins getting such a bad rap?
  4:01pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

I earned mine the old-fashioned way
  4:04pm
Ike:

What's that, DCE? Your violin, your bad rap, or your eyeballs? Or all three?
  4:07pm
glenn:

i smell envy, dce. and you know what? it smells like failure.
  4:09pm
VCS3:

Wanted tough porn without failure!
  4:15pm
Gene Kranz:

But failure is not an option?
  4:20pm
Carmichael:

Faster Pussycat! Fail! Fail!
  4:20pm
Russ Meyer:

I like big tits.
  4:21pm
Joe Walsh:

Amen brother.
  4:28pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Life's been good to you so far, Joe
  4:32pm
tura satana:

men are such pigs. right, girls?
  4:32pm
Russ:

Faster, Traktor! Go! Go! Go!
  4:42pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

this sounds like a nitrous oxide experiment
  4:51pm
pobspotter:

The Plastic Ono Band covers are ever so slightly different -- on John's, he's leaning back on Ono, and on hers, she's leaning on him. Happy Valentine's Day you guys!!
  4:52pm
American Greetings:

yes, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY! GET OUT THERE AND SPEND!
  4:52pm
answers.com:

cover shot taken "on the grounds of Tittenhurst Park (their home at the time) by actor Daniel Richter (as listed in the album's credits) who worked as an assistant for the Lennons at the time"
  4:52pm
steve:

someone gave me russ meyer's Up! as a housewarming gift once... brutal movie.
  4:55pm
glenn:

this is not even close to being on topic, but does anybody else out there love "best of craigslist"? 01 Oct 2010 - buf - STOP Waiting for Grandma to Die! 1987 Oldsmobile Cutlass Sierra
  4:55pm
Hornet Montana:

Russ, why didn't you put any in Star Trek VI ?
  4:56pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

that is pretty funny glenn! where's the "best of craisglist" at? oh wait, I can google it!
  4:57pm
steve:

Tittenhurst Park, coincidentally also the setting of several of Meyers' early films
  5:02pm
unclepoop:

brilliant show
  5:05pm
glenn:

21 Feb 2010 - nsh - I stomped on your fire, you choked on a biscuit
  5:08pm
TDK60:

Thanks, Fabio, for failing once again. Good to hear Ono, etc.
  5:08pm
unclepoop:

who wants a karagarga invite?
  5:10pm
Carmichael:

More apt to me would be Refractions of My Life.
  5:12pm
Ike:

@TDK60, that's the grooviest nom de plume around here lately. It takes me back. Maybe I should rename myself Fuji DR-II 90. I've still got some of those.
  5:14pm
glenn:

on that topic, anybody have an akai gx 77 they want to get rid of? (i can't find one on craigslist).
  5:19pm
?:

I was always a straight up Maxell XLII 90 man, myself . . .
  5:20pm
Cecile:

Hey, Fabio, wasn't Clay looking for blank tapes a while back? Or was it a better tape machine?
  5:20pm
Carmichael:

Now those were some damn fine cassettes, ?. I'd buy those by the gross.
  5:22pm
hank:

dolb2
  5:25pm
Cecile:

I bought a lot of Maxell IIs, too. I still have some in their wrappers. If Clay wants them, I'd donate them to the station.
  5:26pm
?:

up until about 8 or 9 years ago (when I stopped going--I am a confessed luddite) you could still get cases of cassettes wholesale in the "fashion district" (mid-20's btw B'way and 7th). I'm sure all of those perfume/electronics/clothing emporia that sold them have now been replaced with hipster coffee bars, though . . ...
  5:26pm
fabio:

yes, he was looking for replacement decks, but ended up fixing the ones he had...
  5:28pm
hank:

heads thing..
  5:28pm
BSI:

HELL YES maxell XLII-S!
  5:31pm
Ike:

Oh yeah, I've still got some Maxells. Got some Type IV cassettes also, but I don't remember which brand.
  5:36pm
hank:

clean heads with liquid either... wealkly....
  5:39pm
julie:

why do I know Tor Lundvall's name
  5:39pm
Mike East:

I vote Maxell as well. Used to get Fuji's at places like Shoprite or CVS when I couldn't make it to the music store. I recently started making "digital mixtapes" and creating the artwork from old Maxell inserts. I record LP to MP3 and attach the artwork to the file.
  5:42pm
julie:

I remember buying tapes in bulk at Uncle Stereo..I think they were Steve's back then?
  5:43pm
Pantagruel:

Julie, maybe you know Tor's paintings?
  5:44pm
julie:

probably folks mentioning his name around here. Although I've probably come across some of his World Serpent stuff
  5:48pm
hank:

used to getem @ crazy eddies...
  5:49pm
Pantagruel:

Thanks for a quarter century and 3 hours of failure, Fabio.

Can we expect a special 25-year anniversary marathon premium?
  5:51pm
Ike:

Fabio's marathon premiums are always amazing.
  5:56pm
dave:

I like that Fab and Julia are just riffing and Clay hasn't even shown up... :)
  5:58pm
dave:

*julie
  6:01pm
Joe Corrao:

thank you
  6:02pm
tr/.sh:

Great show, Fabio. Thanks.
  6:02pm
Cecile:

Clay, do you need blank cassette tapes? I have a bunch.
  6:03pm
Joe Corrao:

the devil we do know is better than the devil we don't...but unfortunately we know all the devils
  6:03pm
Matt from Springfield:

Hi Julie, Fab, Clay!
Great idea to use at least one of the playlists during "Triumvariate" shows! First time catching you live! I'm still at work so I can't call from my desk.
  6:05pm
Matt from Springfield:

Bronwyn and Jay have talked of the "strawberry shake" appearance of any processed chicken as it's being made.
  6:06pm
Joe Corrao:

il duce
  6:12pm
Joe Corrao:

hey this is funny stuff is this a regular show
  6:14pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Joe "The Dusty Show with Clay Pigeon", you mean? It's on right after Fabio, from 6 to 7. Sometimes they have "The Triumvariate" talking and taking calls, with Fabio and DJ Julie joining Clay.
  6:14pm
cobraDan:

Fabio and Dusty should have a weekly show.
  6:15pm
Ike:

I don't believe in IQ.
  6:15pm
Joe Corrao:

thank you matt...didn't get into wfmu till i moved out of nyc 6 months ago
  6:15pm
Matt from Springfield:

Christmas Tree! You're all lit up at last!
  6:17pm
Cecile:

I loved 50s music in the 70s. I liked it better than most 70s music.
  6:17pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Ike You believe then in "I-Ke"?
  6:19pm
Matt from Springfield:

I LOVE older music! I loved and still loved the Beatles, and like off-beat and older stuff in general. At first it was the regular "Classic" rock, I later diversified and now dig 'FMU as the best source of discovered and undiscovered music.
  6:20pm
Cecile:

He had several hits in the 70s even. Moody Blue and Burnin' Love.
  6:20pm
Matt from Springfield:

After all, don't knock the mainstream--it gave you a baseline for rock! Without first getting into Zeppelin in your teens, how else would you appreciate Kenny G playing a mangled 8-track of "IV"?
  6:21pm
Joe Corrao:

hey I'll be right back...don't do anything importnat
  6:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

There's one chord--someone drone a middle "C", and start!
  6:22pm
?:

The line is actually, "In ignorance and hate, they mourn the dead"
  6:23pm
glenn:

elvis' live version of steamroller blues kills.
  6:23pm
Beatles lyrics:

"That ignorance and hate may mourn the dead /
It is believing / It is believing"
  6:23pm
Ike:

"Tomorrow Never Knows" is my favorite too (possibly b/c it's so 90s-sounding), followed by "Rain."
  6:24pm
glenn:

i've said it before and i'll say it again - classic rock IS oldies music.
  6:27pm
Matt from Springfield:

I'm in the romantic pits as well, so do all these callers! Organize a Clay Pigeon Speed Dating session! A WFMU Speed Dating session, that would be wild!
  6:28pm
Joe Corrao:

back...my math is getting good
  6:28pm
hank:

its all about the One Drop...
  6:29pm
Matt from Springfield:

I could participate in a WFMU speed dating session, as long as it wasn't actually a Seven Second Delay gimmick!
  6:29pm
Ike:

@Glenn: To make it more appealing, the radio industry re-named oldies "classic hits." I think "classic rock" is still the slightly harder stuff w/more male demo appeal. "Classic hits" is more pop. It's all very carefully segregated.
  6:29pm
Joe Corrao:

Gino vanelli I just Wanna Stop
  6:29pm
Cecile:

It is Gino Vanelli!
  6:30pm
glenn:

going to montreal next friday. it's a fantastic place. even when it's cold.
  6:30pm
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, thank you listeners! They used to play that on "Quiet Storm" type evening shows, never knew who did that! See, even pop dreck questions can be answered here!
  6:31pm
Joe Corrao:

Vortex?...is that made by Nissan
  6:32pm
hank:

polly vue a ding dong?
  6:34pm
Joe Corrao:

the professional leon
  6:35pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Sid And Nancy"--Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb as Nancy Sprungen--really deep acting, can hardly tell it's them!
  6:36pm
wikipedia:

Nil by Mouth was Gary Oldman's debut as writer and director.
  6:36pm
Joe Corrao:

idiocracy is the scariest movie ever made
  6:38pm
Ike:

@Joe: Agreed! Almost as terrifying as "1984" but in a diff. way!
  6:38pm
Matt from Springfield:

Magic Clay, molding into anything he chooses!
  6:38pm
glenn:

i thought clay's fill in show monday was fantastic, by the way.
  6:39pm
hank:

NorthbyNorthwest
  6:40pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Idiocracy" though just satirizes present idiotic mindsets that could grow--I read all of "1984" and I would still think it's among the bleakest stories ever.
  6:41pm
Joe Corrao:

@Ike...i saw expecting it a zany comedy and was so depressed...anyway I always recommend it
  6:42pm
Matt from Springfield:

@glenn It's already courteous for DJs to do fill-ins, but if they're doing a fill-in, it would be nicer still to announce it on their show, so fans can try to catch them live.
  6:44pm
glenn:

and this is the best dusty show i've ever heard.
  6:44pm
Matt from Springfield:

@glenn Same here!
  6:46pm
Ike:

I'm reading a newer dystopian novel, "Veracity," heavily inspired by "1984" -- scary, intense, but not very original, exc. for the idea of a device implanted into people that zaps them if they speak banned words. More and more words get banned, erasing entire concepts from society, or trying to.
  6:46pm
glenn:

i like sexual nintendo too.
  6:48pm
glenn:

malmo - home of kurt wallander.
  6:48pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Ike I would agree based on your description, a combination of "1984" and "Harrison Bergeron" does sound scary, but you can identify the stories it borrowed from.
  6:48pm
Joe Corrao:

so is this an average example of this show or are they "on"...cause I am liking it
  6:50pm
Matt from Springfield:

I love whenever they're on, and they usually get pretty funny, this one is exemplary. Clay often plays other stuff, like his interview recording "mixes" and conceptual one-man radio dramas. I've liked the Archives I listened to, though I prefer his talk show.
  6:51pm
tr/.sh:

I wonder if he knows Baldur?
  6:53pm
Matt from Springfield:

Clay has a magnetic voice and personality, when he starts talking you want to hear more!
  6:53pm
Joe Corrao:

Ok i will try to remember to listen...I will call in too...I want to be part of the magic...not the basketball team
  6:55pm
Matt from Springfield:

Chet - I always thought he was a lady suffragette.
  6:57pm
Ike:

Maybe the line of the night: Clay to Fabio: "You're this smoldering cauldron of sexuality": !!! :)
  6:58pm
Matt from Springfield:

Have a good night everyone!
