"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot."

Working on doing a pledge for the dearly departed "World Of Echo" program - IMO (and the decision was tough) the best show (formerly) on WFMU. Just have to decide how badly I'm going to melt down the poor old Visa card.

I'll bet the Christe book is pretty entertaining; I've also been told the 1998 David Lee Roth autobiography is hilarious! Of course it's out of print.

Hey, why hasn't this dirty hippie updated his playlist promptly? If I had not run out of energy long ago, I would throw stale blue tortilla chips at him! Bwahaha.

Up on the block: Thurston Moore's "Trees outside the academy" ... like, the whole cd! Not just part of it!
And if you think you work with the phone set-up guy, go and ask him. Maybe he's lonely.
