	9:02pm listener 126464: i have a lighter
	9:04pm ultradamno: s.yimg.com...
	9:06pm ultradamno: Are we going to hear Green Day and Alanis Morrisette? Apparently that's what's going on right now...
	9:09pm Nate K.: No Green Day or Alanis from me.
	9:09pm Nate K.: Happy New Year, folks. Thanks for hanging out.
	9:11pm ultradamno: It would be ironic, I think
	9:15pm ultradamno: I'll guess: What If Gary Trudeau Didn't Want Money?
	9:18pm ultradamno: Where In GeorgeTown Did We Meet?
	9:26pm Ignore Function: Happy New Year Nate K and everyone in WFMU land!
	9:29pm ultradamno: The 40th Anniversary of the 80s.
	9:30pm Doug in JC: Thanks for being here Nate!
	9:35pm ultradamno: Anti-alcoholics are unfortunates in the grip of water, that terrible poison, so corrosive that out of all substances it has been chosen for washing and scouring, and a drop of water added to a clear liquid like Absinthe, muddles it. - Alfred Jarry
	9:36pm glue_horizon: Happy new year WFMU! Thanks everyone
	9:49pm choggie: Birds fly low, eating the corn. Running, screaming naked helps to scare them higher, as they pick hair spitefully, painfully.
	9:51pm choggie: @ultradamo-Ya gotta watch out for them vital bodily fluids mate...only pure rain water
	9:52pm choggie: ..and distilled grain alcohol spirits.
	9:53pm ultradamno: I still own the white vinyl Best of Bomp comp I first heard this from...
	9:57pm mariano: Hey everyone, happy New Year!
	10:01pm ultradamno: Salt n Pepa and Paula Abdul have performed, is this New Years or a State Fair?
	10:04pm upstate sean: Hey Happy new year Nate, everyone
	10:05pm ultradamno: The W is silent? Mind. Blown.
	10:06pm mariano: It's "CHIZZ-ik" right?
	10:06pm ultradamno: ...and at least one Dum Dum Girls
	10:12pm kev: hi Nate,I'm burning it down in the backyard,big brush pile, listening on my phone. Happy New year burners
	10:12pm Nate K.: "Chizz-ick," yes.
	10:14pm mariano: I think I know that because as a young Who fan I learned that Chiswick was their hood in London and I heard them saying it in an interview at some point.
	10:15pm ultradamno: I have a 20/20 badge. I'm not sure why, I never owned one of their records.
	10:18pm Nate K.: Is it just a simple 20/20 white on black?
	10:18pm Richard S: Hello again!
	10:19pm ultradamno: Yeah, that's it.
	10:25pm ultradamno: Here it is twitter.com...
	10:39pm late for class: i learned recently that Dennis drowned trying to dive for belongings that had been tossed overboard from where his boat was previously docked years prior to the day he died.
	10:51pm ultradamno: I thought I heard the bed music bleeding in...
	10:52pm Nate K.: @Ultra, it was . . . Fixed now
	11:02pm JakeGould: Hey Nate! My end of year resolution was to finally refinish some furniture of mine. Achievement done. Now I can just roll through 2020. Also, I drink water.
	11:09pm ultradamno: Parasite. Then Us.
	11:13pm BH: I'm now playing "Twenty-Twenty Surgery" by Taking Back Surgery, despite it being 10:13pm local time here and not being 2020 yet.
	11:16pm mariano: Wow. Pam Grier. Rewatched Jackie Brown recently for the first time in years, forgot how good it is. She was the standout of several standout performances.
	11:24pm ultradamno: I also enjoyed Jarmusch's zombie movie, The Dead Don't Die, kind of a pisstake but a lot of fun. I feel similarly about Booksmart. But Parasite and Us were the only two I went to see more than once. I'm pretty much in the tank for Bong Joon Ho and Parasite's his best since Mother.
	11:24pm TomDash: Happy New Year, Nate and fellow burners! I chickened out on the New Years shift after ya, but will see ya on the other side!!!
	11:27pm ultradamno: By the way, if anyone has opinion about best song called Living In The 80s, I put up a poll twitter.com...
	11:32pm ultradamno: Kind of goes to what was being said earlier about the new decade being the first in awhile that's easy to say. There are no Living In The Noughts songs really.
	11:33pm Richard S: The downside is we're going to get too many "Roaring 20s" comments.
	11:34pm Hubig Pie: Happy New Year WFMU people
	11:34pm Richard S: Hippo Gnu Yarrr!
	11:40pm MUWFinMA: Something about the music
	11:44pm BH: I suspect that the phrase "Boring 20s" won't fare great over the next 10 years
	11:44pm ultradamno: Got to love a rap act that works 'circumference' and 'apex' into their flow
	11:45pm melinda: hi folks! One of my favorite de La Souls!
	11:45pm ultradamno: I'm hoping for Bloaring 20s as the band Bloar asserts dominance.
	11:46pm mariano: Ooooh, Legal Man, love this one!
	11:46pm ultradamno: That Steely Dan sample is just forced in there, isn't it?
	11:47pm BH: Bloar sounds like the name of a band that is embroiled in a royalties lawsuit with Blur.
	11:48pm ultradamno: Probably why they changed their name from Bloor.
	11:48pm Amanda: Happy New Year Nate and all listening! Let’s make this year NICE
	11:49pm Richard S: "Return to Normalcy" 20s? Naah, that's been done
	11:50pm BH: there was a period of time when I thought that The Verve and the Verve Pipe were the same band. I did not know that the two bands were from different countries because I was young in the 90s
	11:53pm BH: a hat tip to the several people who are listening to WWV because they want to know exactly when it's officially midnight. Also congrats to WWV and WWVH on another year of not being defunded.
	11:53pm Nate K.: @BH, I can relate to that confusion.
	11:53pm Nate K.: Hey @amnaz!
	11:54pm kev: still burning this is like junior high for me Happy New year thx Nate
	11:54pm Granny Spicy Tuna (they/them): From Grampy spacey tina: The still-got-pimples-but-gotta-go-to-work '20s.
	11:55pm ultradamno: I can recall having a T-Shirt for the Aus. band X that came with the At Home With You album and after awhile I just stopped correcting people who thought it was for the LA band.
	11:55pm BH: Pretty sure the Verve couldn't have just changed their band name to avoid paying Mick and Keith "Bittersweet Symphony" royalties (I think that the Stones fixed that sometime in 2018)
	11:55pm Richard S: The "Welcome to Adult Responsibility" 20s.....
	11:57pm mariano: Alright, all you Eastern time folks reddeh?
	11:58pm BH: on checking Wikipedia, I didn't know that the English Beat (The Beat) also had an Australia-only name ("The British Beat")
	11:58pm Michael 98145: Imagine. Happy New Year, Friends. ⚡
	11:58pm mariano: @BH- didn't know that either, interesting.
	11:59pm ultradamno: Angels/Angel City Angel were discussed here last week.
	11:59pm BH: okay, my computer time is 12 seconds ahead of the time on ABC. Neat
	11:59pm Richard S: Happy Arbitrary Temporal Designation!!!!
	11:59pm melinda: happy new year!
	12:00am Ken From Hyde Park: Goodbye, 2019!
	12:00am mariano: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!! Still an hour to go here in New Orleans - tell me how it feels!

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from December 31, 2019

View Nate K.'s profile

Music for the revolution in my head: choogling punks; power pop, both skinny-tied and long-haired; soul shouters and girl groups; bubblegum and acid rock; global fuzz; weirdos and outsiders, and the Weirdos and the Outsiders; Archie Shepp and J. Geils. Plus, live bands.

Upcoming events:

Fri. Dec 6th, 9pm - Midnight: Feeling Figures (More info...)
Montreal's Feeling Figures are led by the songwriting duo of Zakary Slax and Kay Moon. The band's second LP, Everything Around You, was recently co-released by K and Perennial, and while it harkens to the sounds of indie rock's golden age, the album and the band aren't that simple to pin down, as Slax and Moon's distinctive songcraft rise above any easy genre signifier. The band dropped by WFMU on their recent East Coast swing, and with a couple of extra Retail Simps in tow (Zak also does time in that band), a good time was had. Tune in Friday, December 6 to check it out.
Fri. Dec 27th, 9pm - Midnight: Count It Down: The Burn It Down! Best of 2024 Special (More info...)
Nate the K. looks back on some of his favorite LPs, EPs, singles, reissues, and archival releases from the year that was. Tracks will be played in no particular order, because to paraphrase Michael Shelley and Hot Chocolate, respectively, they're all number one hits and everyone's a winner, baby...that's no lie.
