Had fun assembling this opening music, utilizing a drumbeat on a broken record (hence the skipping) and a Jerry Falwell LP. Yes, that's him saying "50 lb. bag of Purina."

Having just moved here, I can really relate to the lyrics of this song. I love the romantic notion of Dylan and the Village back then. And so, I'll indulge myself by including this number. 56

I love this song. Check them out online. They are on Myspace and are out of Minneapolis, MN. Apologies for the crude edit. I should have played the whole thing. I will, another time.

This song is really much better than what was played on the air. I had to edit it so harshly because of profanity and the FCC and all that. I
dig his Johnny Rotten meets Roy Masters

At this point, Counter/Reset performs some of his verses. I couldn't resist getting out the little casio/sampler and making a rough backing track for him. Everybody wants to get into the act, as Durante once said.

One of my favorite Milwaukee bands. I never met them until I moved to New York. Here, I interview Davey Von Bohlen and new guitarist Dan Hinz as Maritime (formerly The Promise Ring) play Manhattan's, Mercury Lounge.

I have a soul-affinity for this record. In coincided with my move to Milwaukee in 2001. I will forever connect the two. Isn't music odd that way? How it pulls us back to specific life moments? Magical.

Apologies to Maritime for the tape speed. Because I use batteries and analog cassette tape technology, the speed of each weeks show can vary sometimes. When I sound like Alvin, I adjust tape speed, but it can make the music slower. So damned complex and frustrating. Always some damned thing every week.

I was thrilled to interview these guys. Davey has been an idol of mine for a while and Dan, well, we used to work together in a music store. By the way, this warbly cassette I used sounds like ass.

Thanks for listening tonight everyone. The last couple of weeks have been great as you have really responded and given me new confidence. I appreciate it!!! Your e-mail is ALWAYS welcome and INVITED: Dusty@wfmu.org Let me hear from you! Really had some cassette technology issues on this show that cause me dismay. Kind of goes with the crusty old analog territory. Fluctuating tape speeds, warbles, treble drop-out. After next weeks show, I will be replacing the microcassette recorder I use for doing interviews. I have even thought about using hi-bias cassettes as opposed to the "normal" bias I use now. It's not getting any easier to find cassettes these days, or the coveted Technics dual-cassette decks I use to make this program with (NO DIGITAL EDITING).
