	9:12pm mariano: Hey Mr. Pumpy, how's it going? It has been a while, been kind of caught up in stuff the last few days. Hi Handy, wassap!
	9:14pm Handy Haversack: I was up to pizza and plotting with some boat mates and was thinking I'd come home and watch a little TV. But with It getting all Burned Down this way, might have to postpone that!
	9:20pm mariano: Plotting with boat mates - are you a pirate? Kind of a piratey name, now that I think about it ;)
	9:21pm mariano: No way! The city's still hoppin', will be well into the weekend!
	9:21pm Handy Haversack: I have ... piratey habits.
	9:21pm Mr. Pumpy: mariano...it's going. I forgot it was chunky tues...
	9:22pm ultradamno: Maybe unintentionally blackened fish.
	9:24pm Mr. Pumpy: I'm going to see the Piratey Habits at the Union Pool next week. Killer, maritime, avant-goth band consisting of pillaging and plundering nuns.
	9:26pm mariano: Hah! Please take some vids, Mr. Pumpy.
	9:27pm ultradamno: That was some high brow word play, right there.

	9:35pm yipp: please tell me if voodoo prayer language in back alley new orleans voodoo churches is a real language
	9:36pm Mr. Pumpy: Ha! Very NietzschJnungian! Nunder Plunder staring back...

	9:39pm mariano: Wouldn't know, yipp. Santería on the other hand... Oh, this is one of the best songs ever, this very Celtic-sounding Cajun Mardi Gras song!

	10:40pm johnzo: your face is essentially the vocalist we all stole from somebodyelse... somebodyelse never locked his shit up he was asking for it

	10:48pm Mr. Pumpy: everything is a real story
	10:48pm johnzo: this is fantastic!
	10:51pm coelacanth∅: good version
	10:53pm coelacanth∅: ...it's strange but i think maybe Cher did my favorite cover of that song. maybe it's just the novelty of it and a few more listens i won't think so
	10:54pm coelacanth∅: (greetings y'all, by the way)
	10:55pm mariano: Hey coela, happy Mardi Gras!

	11:16pm coelacanth∅: wfmu.org... @ 1.47 (i thought it was Marty)
	11:24pm coelacanth∅: the first version recorded,no?
	11:24pm coelacanth∅: (fortune teller...)
	11:27pm mariano: If anyone wants to see a bit of Mardi Gras lore, at 1 a.m. Eastern is the Meeting of the Courts, when Rex leaves the Rex ball and crosses the street to the Comus ball and greets Comus, which officially signals the end of Carnival (Rex is the king of Carnival, but Comus is the god). The lead-up is basically a boring debutante ball, but the last 20-30 minutes can be kind of cool, lots of pageantry and history: www.youtube.com...
	11:32pm johnzo: I would hardly call principal a standard day job tho... its an achievement in & of itself
	11:33pm johnzo: has anyone written a biography of Station Manager Ken yet I wanna read it
	11:34pm mariano: Roundup of the best costumes in the Quarter today: www.nola.com...

Burn It Down! with Nate K.: Playlist from February 25, 2020

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.

February 25, 2020: "Goin' down to New Orleans, I've got my ticket in my hand."
