9:46am MAC-Antique Phonograph Music Program:

We are thinking of you and sending positivity your way Holly!

9:49am Chris T.:

Holly, I'll be on the air while Doug is hand-crafting a show for you, so I wanted to check in early and say "Thanks" for all the support you've given FMU over the years. There's a special bond between this station and its listeners and its unique in all the world, just like you. When you're feeling up to, please come see us in Jersey City!

Thinking of you Holly, and all the generosity and support you've given me, my show, the Drummer stream and WFMU. We're strong for Holly, because Holly's strong for us!

10:16am Mike Lupica:

Holly: Even though I haven't been on FMU for years, I still think fondly of the great presence you were in the early days of chat-enabled playlists. In my mind, you set the gold standard for playlist comments and I sincerely thank you for all the amazing support you've given to FMU over the years. We're all thinking of you and wishing you the best!

10:17am Dan Bodah:

Hi Holly! Light & healing thoughts from up north! xoxo

10:22am Mark:

Holly: I'm relatively new to the FMU crew (a fill-in), and I've only been a listener since I moved East in 2012, so I'm not as familiar with your comments as the other DJs, but I know you're one our most beloved listeners. I also had the pleasure of reading your thoughts on your radio station at Duke. Your love of music and of the art of doing good radio is something to be valued and treasured. One of the beautiful things about WFMU is the community that's been created here for people like us. I wish you all health and happiness going forward, and I hope you'll be a part of our community for a long, long time. God bless.

11:27am Kurt Gottschalk:

Hi Holly,

Without listeners, WFMU would be nothing. And you're one of the very top. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

11:51am Charlie:

Hi Holly! Wishing health and happiness to you, a legendarily loyal listener. Go lightly, Holly!

1:59pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Hi, Holly. You've got lots of friends here. Hoping you get well soon. Jimmy V had some inspiring words: "Never give up. Don't ever give up." youtu.be...

2:13pm Cecile:

Holly, I won't be able to listen except on archives. but I'll send healthy thoughts to you. All my best!

2:18pm Dean:

My thoughts are with you, Holly, and the good vibes emanating from the stream. Call it stream-o-therapy, a sure cure.

2:26pm Tony Coulter:

Hi Holly. Here's hoping you get better really quickly. Always like it when you show up in the comments -- you're clearly a wonderful person. We're all pulling for you!!!

2:28pm Listener John from NJ:

Good luck and best wishes to you, Holly!

3:26pm V Priceless:

Hi Holly! Wishing you Light, Power and Strength through the Music that unites us all!

3:37pm Gary:

Super Love for the Holly and can't wait to hear a solid hour of her faves!!!!<---------[infinity]

3:39pm Flash Strap:

Holly, my old bloggin' buddy, my fellow Carolinian: may all the best things in the cosmos come to you, may you live a thousand years and see all your foes struck down to the dirt. May you sail the seas of sound on an ever-sturdy ship, and evermore grace the comments here with your presence.

4:13pm Kay:

Holly, I just googled "kay holly tony site:wfmu.org", and sure enough we've crossed paths more than a few times on Tony Coulter's playlist, usually on the occasion when there were monetary pledges being made. Thanks for supporting WFMU, its DJs, and fellow listeners in word, thought, and deed. Best wishes coming your way!

4:24pm Mike Sin:

Holly! Best wishes to you! Thanks for all the support you've given to WFMU during the years, and I personally appreciate your presence and comments during my fill-in spots. My thoughts are with ya!

5:39pm Diane W:

Take heart, Holly! Best wishes to you - and lots of healing music and big mojo for a strong recovery.

🥁

5:43pm Artie Haywire:

Summoning the dual forces of The Piedmont and Marconi to visit powerful and abiding woe upon any condition that might mess with our Holly! They mess with one of us, they mess with all of us!!

5:45pm glenn:

holy dinah. look at all the holly love.

5:48pm MrFab:

Holly's also an old pal of my blog, and many other music bloggers. She even helped me out fairly recently when I needed an mp3 for a post I was working on. Her awesomeness extends beyond radio.

5:55pm ndbob:

evening Holly, Doug, everyone!

5:56pm Doug Schulkind:

Best evening to you, ndbob!

🥁

5:58pm listener james from westwood:

Holy crow! Huge mojo to an FMU champion and all-around mensch. Best wishes for musical healing, Holly!

5:59pm Doug Schulkind:

Listener James FW!

6:01pm Gary:

Listening while I cook!

6:04pm Doug Schulkind:

You're always cooking, Gary. And sometimes in the kitchen even.

6:05pm Monica:

sending good vibes your way, holly!

6:06pm ndbob:

@Holly - It's always a pleasure to see you here - you bring joy to me and all of the WFMU community

6:06pm Doug Schulkind:

Monica of the driftwood yurt!

6:07pm Carmichael:

Barely had time to listen, much less comment. Today is fiscal year close for the gubmint. Busier than a one-armed paperhanger.

6:09pm Doug Schulkind:

Hang that paper high, Carmichael!

6:10pm Carmichael:

Thums up to Holly as well. I have been a listener for 20 years, and Holly has always been there. I hope you always will be.

6:10pm Stanley:

Holly - sending heartfelt best wishes for your recovery.

6:11pm Stanley:

Doug! (bows low)

6:11pm Charlie:

This guitar piece definitely has healing powers.

6:12pm northguineahills:

Arrrrr! pant, just sped walk back from the cobbler and post office, *out of breath*, *burning hot, sweaty*, I made it for Doug's radio love for Holly. OK, time to lay on the couch!

6:13pm Monica:

hey there, dougeleh - and dj holly!

6:13pm Doug Schulkind:

Cholly and En Gee Aiche!

🥁

6:13pm doctorjazz:

Best wishes for you, Holly!

6:14pm Doug Schulkind:

By the way "Kaplan" here is Kaplan Kaye, son of Danny Kaye.

6:14pm Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, docjazz!

6:14pm Charlie:

I had no idea there was an offspring songster. Comment re this song: I like.

🥁

6:16pm doctorjazz:

Pretty cool playlist as well, like Holly's choices!

6:16pm glenn:

driftwood yurt is my new band name.

6:18pm Doug Schulkind:

Holly's ears are as big as her heart...

🥁

6:18pm doctorjazz:

One of my favorite songs, by one of my favorite songs (Townes), never heard this version though, great!

6:19pm MrC:

Everyday will be like a holiday when the drummer is given some...

6:19pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Listening to Drummer stream on my phone while laptop is streaming Aerial View. Multitasking like a buzzard tonight.

🥁

6:19pm listener james from westwood:

Holly, would this bed music also be one of your faves, too? B/c it's likely in my top 3 from Doug's library of talkover tunes!

6:21pm Amanda:

Hi Holly! We always knew your taste was impeccable but it's great to be reminded for a whole hour straight. Thinking of you, much love going out to ya.

6:23pm Doug Schulkind:

Yay, Amanda's here!

Listener James, Holly in fact did mention loving that music bed!

6:25pm Joe McG:

Get well soon, Holly! Thanks for being such good comments board company on those many Saturday nights we spent together on the radio!

6:25pm Doug Schulkind:

Hey there MrC! And maestro Joe McG!

6:26pm Doug Schulkind:

This Los Miticos Del Ritmos track was shared at the old Holy Warbles blog where Holly's loving comments were of legend.

6:28pm northguineahills:

Ok, I have somehow missed this Los Miticos Del Ritmo track.

🥁

6:28pm doctorjazz:

This is the coolest Queen cover ever!

🥁

6:28pm listener james from westwood:

@Doug: Outstanding! I have to wonder if I ever starred it during your bed-a-thon hour shows...

6:29pm Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
Bed-a-thon sounds a little NSFWish.

6:29pm efd:

I'm not sure if there is anything I can add that hasn't already been said. In particular I'd like to echo Mike's comments at 10:16; Holly is the shining example that's in my mind when I think about how grateful I am to have such a positive and supportive group of commenters on my show. It's great to see so much love and support here, and I'm happy to be one of this numbers. Best wishes to you, Holly, and thanks Doug for putting this show (and playlist!) together.

6:31pm Doug Schulkind:

Evan Funk Davies, ladies and germs! Evan, didn't Holly "adopt" you one marathon? I seem to recall that.

6:32pm Doug Schulkind:

And here is were I sheepishly admit to lopping about six minutes off Mind Train (to fit in more songs). It was in the service of good not evil, but I still feel crappy about it.

6:33pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Zats...I remember a WFMU DJ that played Mind Train for his opening number each week. I forget who that was, though.

6:35pm Doug Schulkind:

I am pleased that today's playlist is reflecting to a small degree Holly's freeform tastes and appreciations. From one playlist to the next, you never know which bit of audio wonder would elicit a rave from Holly in the comments. She's showed love for Mind Train more than once so Yoko HAD TO BE on tonight's show.

6:35pm Jeff g.:

Blessings upon you, Holly. May the good cheer and great mojo you have shared on these boards over the years return to you many times over.

🥁

6:36pm listener james from westwood:

@Ken, you're right. Was it Bob W?

6:37pm Doug Schulkind:

Jeff Gee!

6:37pm Evan in NC:

from one "in NC" to another (my handle is an homage to yours): wishing you all the best, Holly! Hang in there! :)

6:37pm Doug Schulkind:

Evan in Encie!

6:38pm Flash Strap:

anyone who hears mind train and still wants to grouse about Yoko is just being an irredeemable ding dong. shit is majestic

🥁

6:38pm listener james from westwood:

@Doug: Yoko had a successful bed-a-thon with this one guy.

6:39pm Doug Schulkind:

Just received email from Holly. She is still at the hospital where there is no wifi or mobile listening possible. She regrets not being able to drop by...

6:40pm northguineahills:

@Holly: Hopefully there will be only a minimal bouts of chemo. I need to thank you again for the positive vibes you've sent me to whatever the eff happened to me happened to me and my wife this last year. Most of that seems to have resolved itself (fingers crossed). Cheerios!

6:41pm Flash Strap:

someone chopper in some tech for Holly, stat!

6:42pm efd:

The beauty of WFMU is that the show and playlist will be here waiting for her when she's ready.

And Doug, if she DID adopt me then I'm going to join you in sheepishness because I don't recall that off the top of my head!

6:44pm ndbob:

great one Holly!

6:45pm MrC:

Holly..You have great, discerning taste..oh yeah..

6:46pm Doug Schulkind:

My mind train might be off the rails with that, Evan. I remember when I first "met" Holly, she introduced herself to me as a a huge fan of your show.

6:47pm Holly in NC:

Just got out of chemo!!!!! Long day. Can't wait to have a chance to listen to show and read comments. I love you all. Feeling very lucky and hopeful and strong. Thank you, friends. xo

6:47pm efd:

Doug, I can definitely confirm that, at least.

6:47pm ndbob:

heya Holly!

6:48pm efd:

ahhhh there she is! Hi Holly!

6:48pm Doug Schulkind:

I first met Holly as a fellow commenter on many of the music-sharing blogs out there. I would go to type in a thank you to the blogger and Holly's gracious words always beat me to it! It was no surprise at all when I discovered that she was a longtime WFMU fan.

H O L L Y !

6:51pm Doug Schulkind:

The GIF adorning today's playlist was made from a video Holly linked to me in an email. We both share an abiding love for pups and a hatred of spiders. This video the perfect storm mashup of our mutual appreciations.

🥁

6:56pm listener james from westwood:

Hoof & Mouth flashback!!

6:56pm Doug Schulkind:

I have actually never played this last track on the air, but Holly has referred to it and linked to it in the comments to past playlists. I doubt I will ever play it again, but I do so here with love and respect!

6:57pm northguineahills:

I do believe I remember this one...!!

Thanks Doug & Holly!

🥁

6:57pm Julie:

Best wishes to you, Holly, you awesome lady you XO

Holly has got good taste!!! Hope you're feeling all these good vibes coming your way!!
