OMIGOD! It's Liz Berg! 8-)

Mon. 7/21/08 12:11pm From: Liz B.

OMG, it's SmokinJ and anyone else out there. Welcome to another Monday full of disasters and fun noises!

Mon. 7/21/08 12:12pm From: SmokinJ

Thank You! I feel welcome:)

Mon. 7/21/08 12:13pm From: dei x

I dunno Liz, you've already stated that you're not on the comix side of the fence, and Ben set the accuplaylist bar pretty high...

Mon. 7/21/08 12:15pm From: HotRod

This SI track sounds great!

Mon. 7/21/08 12:15pm From: Liz B.

I am the Monday underachiever. Between Ben and Irene, how can a girl possibly compete?

Mon. 7/21/08 12:17pm From: Bad Ronald

I am still revcovering from the entire Pecan Sandy dilemma. I think I need a quick constitutional too...

Mon. 7/21/08 12:19pm From: tommy

is anyone else's player not updating the song info?

Mon. 7/21/08 12:22pm From: efd

Tommy, yes - i was just about to post about that (and now I am). My WinAmp still says "Benjamen Walker's Theory of Everything"

Mon. 7/21/08 12:23pm From: Sean Daily

Is it just me, or does Wire sound like what a Dalek punk band would sound like?

Mon. 7/21/08 12:28pm From: Ike

HA! Daleks do not play punk music. Daleks exterminate punks! Anyway, wouldn't all the lyrics be about exterminating all other races in the universe, and blowing up planets?

Consider yourself lucky that you still have access to the beautiful, beautiful Winamp. They've got me on a new computer at work and I can't install squat, not even Flash. Ugh... hello, tinny Windows Media stream.

portland! sends a hello

Mon. 7/21/08 12:31pm From: dei x

Ike, try Foobar2000

Mon. 7/21/08 12:38pm From: Ike

Dei X, you are awesome! This actually installed (once I unchecked the virus protection option)! BRILLIANT!

Now I get to hear the awesome "Suffering Jukebox" song at 128k! Hooray! Woo hoo! Foobar2000 is the savior of beaten-down office workers everywhere!

Mon. 7/21/08 12:41pm From: efd

in an unrelated development (...or IS IT??), my WinAmp song titles are now updating.

Mon. 7/21/08 12:42pm From: SmokinJ

The Liz train rolls on...

Mon. 7/21/08 12:43pm From: dei x

don't thank me, thank FMU! Foobar seems to be the most trouble-less, based on previous broadcast futzs.

Mon. 7/21/08 12:45pm From: ergal thema

Wow, this is awesome. I'm archiving at work, so I can listen to internet radio, guilt-free. Makes me wish I could archive more often. This will definitely be my station of choice from now on. Been a 365-days fan for a while, gotta find a way to hear more WFMU. Anyway, thanks for exposing all this interesting music!

Mon. 7/21/08 12:53pm From: RagnarR in SF Bay

Whoa, this Pappo's Blues is awesome! The guitars are so fiery and fuzzy. Rockin' goodness!

Mon. 7/21/08 12:55pm From: Liz B.

Yeah, Pappo is awesome, he's a legend in Argentina, tons of great albums. Wikipedia has a pretty decent page about him.

Mon. 7/21/08 12:58pm From: Ike

I've used Foobar2000 at home to convert files, but I had no idea you could successfully install it on a totally locked-down computer. Could it be specifically designed for that purpose? Or maybe it's just because it's so basic and low-memory-usage.

Oooh, Nigerian fuzz funk!

Mon. 7/21/08 1:12pm From: HotRod

ROBOTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mon. 7/21/08 1:26pm From: James

I saw meth teeth the other day...they are rad...when are they going on?

Mon. 7/21/08 1:28pm From: Liz B.

Meth Teeth are coming up soon, sound check is in progress as I type.

Mon. 7/21/08 1:31pm From: James

sweet...like I said I saw them saturday night and they were good. I should've bought some records. hooray for second chances (to hear them...)

Mon. 7/21/08 1:36pm From: Sean Daily

Nurse with Wound is filling the hole in my soul.

Mon. 7/21/08 1:43pm From: HotRod

Meth Teeth sound wonderful so far!

Mon. 7/21/08 1:46pm From: John

I saw them Saturday too. Rad sounds

Mon. 7/21/08 1:47pm From: listener jeremy

note to self... don't google image meth teeth...

Mon. 7/21/08 1:50pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

pretty sure they're headed to Cleveland soon...will definitely check them out.

Mon. 7/21/08 1:50pm From: Daniel

I suspect Meth Teeth might have chosen their name so as to guarantee horrifying image results whenever anyone Googles them.

Mon. 7/21/08 2:00pm From: Kenzo

So, live song information wasn't displaying in Winamp, and then later it started? Inquiring minds want a lot more details. Clutter up Liz's playlist by posting the details here, or, more politely, send 'em here:

Mon. 7/21/08 2:06pm From: Bad Ronald

Diggin the Sic Alps tune Thanks Liz!

Mon. 7/21/08 2:07pm From: Liz B.

Kenzo, it was an issue that Ken dealt with. I'm not blaming him or anything...

Mon. 7/21/08 2:07pm From: Tom (The Bactrian Support Network)

Thinking Hot Tuna now - ** Hot Jelly Roll Blues** oh there goes my diet haha...

Mon. 7/21/08 2:26pm From: C

I saw Nomo last week and I can't recommend them highly enough. All around incredible show.

Mon. 7/21/08 2:43pm From: RagnarR in SF Bay

Liz - What's the xylophone-y instrumental you're using as the sound bed? I've heard it before but I forget who does it. Thanks.

Mon. 7/21/08 2:45pm From: Liz B.

Hi RagnarR, the bed music is "Catnip" by Twink. You can download it on his website twink.net, lots of fun toy piano music.

Mon. 7/21/08 2:48pm From: fred

Kenzo, I didn't experience that particular issue. I tuned in at about 12:15 and definitely got Liz scrolling in winamp. I can't tell from about 1pm to 2pm, but getting Ben's name never happened for me. Cache/timestamp issue related to stream switching?
By the way, I'm so grateful for all you did for the station and for me over all these years. Many, many thanks Kenzo, you rule! (another last ever fill-in would be much appreciated, btw)

Mon. 7/21/08 3:01pm From: Kenzo

Fear not...someone had accidentally turned something off at the station, and same person turned it back on!
