👻

12:16pm Artie:

Joe B, enjoy the mouse parts. White meat or dark?

12:17pm Another Pete from Mass.:

There's a movement afoot here in Mass. to make Roadrunner the state song. Jonathan Richman has reportedly said the song isn't good enough. We disagree!

👻

12:17pm tim from champaign:

Let's get Mighty Joe Belock some jack!!!!!

12:18pm Sigurdur:

Ahhh Pete

12:18pm Bad Ronald:

12:19pm Artie:

RADIO ON!!!!

12:19pm Sigurdur:

You got IT pOWER

12:19pm Caryn:

So, it's this "Roadrunner" that they're debating. I've been wondering about that ever since I heard the news. There are too many songs called "Roadrunner"...

12:25pm Sigurdur:

the Ground FLOORR the

12:27pm Joe B:

hardly anyone in the drawing! no one in for the grand prize yet!

12:27pm Pete from Boston (and NJ):

I oppose any government involvement in rock 'n' roll. No need will be filled, no good will be advanced.

12:29pm Danne D:

@Another Pete - EFD actually had the head of the movement for Roadrunner to get named state song on his show a couple weeks ago

12:30pm Tome:

Love the MOnte ! -- Joe gonna host the Finale!! was great last he is the MC !!!

12:32pm Danne D:

Congrats Evan!

12:33pm Carmichael:

Rock it, Joe! C'mon, peoples, let's rain on FMU!

12:36pm KevinBK:

Been wondering for
So long what the hell the mouse reference was. Thanks

👻

12:37pm tim from champaign:

Screamin' Jay was also in Mystery Train.

12:39pm Matt F:

This "Live With Me" is hot! Weird how you can hear a live recording of the Stones where they're the best band ever and then hear another show from the same week where they sound like five guys who have never even met each other before.

12:41pm Pete from Boston (and NJ):

I remember when a friend of mine made a House of Tomorrow pledge when we were both very poor. I was in awe -- we were barely making over minimum wage. In those days, buying a building on the beat-up waterfront of JC also seemed ridiculous, though. How times change.

12:42pm Joe B:

so right Pete!

agree Matt!

12:50pm Skirkie:

♥ Cicada

12:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Scott, you don't sound like you. Weird mic? Sick? Short of pledges?

12:54pm MissV:

thanks to running into JB @ work I was reminded to pledge !

12:56pm Bad Ronald:

The Sea Monkeys 7" is way cool! ecx.images-amazon.com...

12:58pm Joe B:

thanks Miss V! Hi to everyone! tough to keep up with the comments on a crazy day like this, they are all appreciated!

12:58pm Toddophonic:

Who else would play Tico & The Triumphs 2 weeks in a row?!!? PLEDGE TO JOE!

👻

12:59pm tim from champaign:

This Paul Simon does not suck....neither does Three Chord Monte. Tell Joe that he doesn't suck by pledging!!!!!!

1:01pm Cheri O:

This song is about the SWAG FOR LIFERS!

1:03pm PFFlyer:

I'm in the RUNNING!, but I ain't Karl. Just ol' Mr PF mcFreakin' Flyer, one boot in Wisconny, the other in Woodbury, MN. Thanx for the great show, Joe.

1:07pm PFFlyer:

Finlanders rock, Hi to Hell sinkhole

1:13pm Caryn:

Hi back, PFFlyer (even if I am a couple of hours northeast of Hell sinkhole right now)!

1:14pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

Weehawkwind!

Hi everybody! Bye everybody!

1:28pm Sigurdur:

wow ,,,,,, weird

1:35pm Sigurdur:

Ring please ring please

1:36pm Rev. Turnip Druid:

The Scott/Fabio transitions a few years back were inspired...

1:38pm Sigurdur:

Dear Jeff showing the thrre time joe LOVE

1:38pm Caryn:

Aw, "it ain't in the phone room"... Pledge, people!

1:41pm Sigurdur:

Mr rich man pick up that phone..... or tell your assistant 2 do so...... hehahe

1:43pm Sigurdur:

You give planet eaRTH A VERY GOOD SOUND

1:47pm Sigurdur:

tHANK YOU INTERNET for being there!

1:48pm Pete from Boston (and NJ):

In 2005 or so, someone at a dinner party was preaching on about this new thing "podcasts" that was so great. "How is this different from what WFMU has been doing for years?" I asked, explaining the streaming/downloadable archives, etc. Ultimately, the answer came down to, "It's not, but now it's new again and called 'podcasts.'" Another WFMU innovation ahead of the frontier of history!

1:49pm Cheri O:

JB/Fab transitions rivaled those of Billy Jam/Bryce

1:49pm Anna Anabolic:

Such a great doc - thanks for playing this!

1:50pm Sigurdur:

who will be next...... i love sex....hihihi

1:56pm Sigurdur:

DAVIIIIIIIDDDDDDDDDD

1:57pm PFFlyer:

Päivä paistaa

1:57pm Sigurdur:

uNTED KINGDOM waking up all of the suDDen

1:58pm Sigurdur:

WALES !!!

1:58pm StillNotSureWhatDylansTarantulaMeans:

Absolutely true about FMU Pete: WFMU Way Out Ahead - !!!
- & FMU having no less than 5 streams is seldom mentioned - !

- Nevertheless - wish Archives were Downloadable in the sense of files for iPods &/or Hardrives (I mean: Keepable - not just Streaming)
- & I'm waiting for everyone to switch from MP3 to MP4 &/or other Lossless (@ least as good as CD Quality)...

2:00pm Sigurdur:

sTORNowAY...... IF GINGER THE MEAT CUTTER AND GARBAGE MAN FEELS LIKE IT

2:02pm KP:

The only way to fly is WFMU!

2:03pm geokopp:

never thought I'd hear jefferson airplane on 3 chord monte!

2:04pm KP:

Three Chord Monte-rey Pop!

2:05pm Cheri O:

I've heard the rare Jefferson Airplane song here and there that had a danceable beat.

2:05pm Joe B:

George, i played the levi's ad in 2007! and maybe eskimo blue day. once

2:06pm geokopp:

jefferson airplane loves you, Joe!

2:07pm KP:

Jorma and Joe go way back.

2:07pm efd:

@StillNotSure You can blame the lack of downloadability on the RIAA and the US regulations preventing WFMU from offering that. Some DJs (Liz Berg comes to mind) do make portions of their programs that contain "podsafe" music available as downloadable podcasts.

2:13pm KP:

I bought the Sugarman CD yesterday. Got in my car and Irene was just starting to play it. That was worth a pledge.

2:14pm Sigurdur:

mILK FOR 140 KR..... THANK YOU VISIR

2:15pm Jim B:

In line with the above thread, maybe one of the hosts could explain what the $500-level bonus page pledge is. I haven't heard too much discussion of it at this point in the marathon.

2:15pm Joe B:

ok Jim, will do!

2:16pm Mike East:

@efd/StillNotSure...a great way around the non podcasted fmu shows is using the download feature on the WFMU app. I used to download this awesome show when I had an ipod called "The Evan Funk Davies Show" cuz I can't stay up that late.

2:16pm StillNotSureWhatDylansTarantulaMeans:

...that is to say - *easily* Keepable - like, in fact, a Podcast; there are Programs that enable Recording (which I don't have @ present)
...altho' things are in fact moving Cloud-ward - & away from one's own Storage Files - which is (yes) more like the FMU Archives already are...

2:18pm StillNotSureWhatDylansTarantulaMeans:

Thanx EFD & Mike.

2:18pm KP:

Mike East. Yes it's great for driving when out of 3G-4G range. Press a button and three hours of bliss ensues.

👻

2:19pm tim from champaign:

No hay amor para mi pero da muy mucho amor para Jose B con muy mucho dinero

2:19pm Caryn:

If I hadn't just pledged, I'd pledge for this. In other words: people, pledge for this!

2:19pm Pete from Boston (and NJ):

Yes, the FCC got so nutso at one point that the very viability of streaming non-commercial radio seemed questionable. The current situation is much better than it could have been.

There's still lots of free, downloadable content offered by WFMU.

2:20pm Sigurdur:

HASTLA VICTORIA...... oooo broooooooooklyn

2:20pm KP:

Very easy to record anything on a mac. PCs cant be too far behind on that.

2:23pm KP:

GO, JOE, GO!

2:23pm Sigurdur:

Norge er rikere en oss pa issland. alle de jaekle olje penger

2:25pm Caryn:

You're right about that Siggy. Oil-rich Norwegians... pledge, you Norse millionaires!

2:25pm Sigurdur:

2:37pm KP:

2:46pm Caryn:

That mention of Bon Scott makes me wonder if Joe's premium will have a Geordie song on it, for pre-AC/DC Brian Johnson...

2:46pm Stevel:

See what you're doing? Don't make them sing again!!!

2:46pm SHIMMY:

I made it in with my bux in the last 15min! Come out to Don Pedro Saturday for Born Loose & the Othermen if you ain't workin' Joe!

2:47pm junie:
