Listener comments!

Wed. 8/13/08 3:03pm From: Gigantor

Ringworm! You rock, Irwin! But that's Van Morrison, not Lee Morgan.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:04pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

Ah, "Ring Worm." Van Morrison's masterpiece, IMHO. As soon as I heard it, I thought, "Kenny's gone and Irwin's here. Hooray!"

Wed. 8/13/08 3:08pm From: Ike

Kenny G just stated that you can curse in other languages. That isn't true, is it? A Georgia station (among others) was fined $7,000 for sex jokes in Spanish in 2002. Does the FCC consider sex jokes to be as bad as regular non-sexual cursing? Of course, with the FCC, nobody can probably ever tell. Plus, they probably don't have the manpower to translate everything. Swahili would be safe.

mock turtles!!!! madchester!!!!!!!!

Wed. 8/13/08 3:15pm From: AnAnonymousParty

I've often been referred to as a 'tete du merde'. Of course, that's Monsieur tete du merde to you.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:15pm From: gumby

I can dig it.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:18pm From: Parq

Digging the Della the most, but any change of some contemp. country today?

Wed. 8/13/08 3:22pm From: Stuart Troutman

Wow, now I remember why I never liked Della Reese. That was hideous.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:23pm From: Ike

I could only take about five seconds.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:25pm From: Raj

Irwin, you're the only DJ where I can enjoy the music without having to wiki and cyber-research the bands.

There's a compliment in there.

Strike that, the millionaire bit and all.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:30pm From: Lizardner Dave

ROOOOOOOOCCK!!!!!!!!

Wed. 8/13/08 3:33pm From: Jason

Hey Irwin, enjoying the show! Jingle Jangle morning takes me back to this comp cd called Shreds 1992, that compiled a bunch of 7''s from that year by Karl Hendricks Trio and the like. It had an amazingly fun song by this group named Moist from the Sacramento Area called "Be Young". I have struggled to learn more about this band, all I've come up with are some crappy canadian modern rock group...any leads would be heroic

Wed. 8/13/08 3:34pm From: Jim

This is cool. Play stuff like it.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:36pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Flanger! Say, you got 'The Big Hurt' w/Miss Toni Fisher? IIRC, the 1st use of flanging, deliberately, in a pop recording.

Wed. 8/13/08 3:39pm From: Stuart Troutman

Ever heard Del Shannon's cover of 'The Big Hurt'?

Wed. 8/13/08 3:40pm From: Frank Thomas

Me

"Ever heard Del Shannon's cover of 'The Big Hurt'?"

Wed. 8/13/08 3:42pm From: Lizardner Dave

Wed. 8/13/08 4:01pm From: stingy d

amy annelle has a song called "too much on my mind" migth be a cover, where i could findat?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:04pm From: Irwin

Stingy - Amy recorded "Too Much" at home, emailed an mp3, don't think it's available commersh. Check her website: highplainssigh.com

Wed. 8/13/08 4:04pm From: Jim

How come you don't put the talk breaks in your playlist?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:09pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

This Pooh Sticks is taking a long road to get where it's going. But I'm enjoying the ride.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:14pm From: gumby

The secret to happiness is dried Pooh Sticks,

Wed. 8/13/08 4:15pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

Dried pooh sticks to what?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:17pm From: gumby

That's part of the happiness, it doesn't stick to your shoes and it doesn't stink as bad either.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:20pm From: jan

anatomy of love- is good- can you print an english libretto?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:26pm From: gumby

Irwin is there room in todays show for a crazy bongo tune? Love those crazy bongos tunes.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:28pm From: stingy d

thanks for the help irwin... did you play that one, and thas why i know of it??

Wed. 8/13/08 4:29pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Bongo is okay, but how about more cowbell? I mean a lot more cowbell, like insane extreme cowbell, I want a freakin' cowbell solo.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:31pm From: stingy d

also!
isn't it true that dancing days was the inspiration for the ain't nobody humpin around song???

Wed. 8/13/08 4:32pm From: stingy d

furthermore!
why aren't you playing those two back to back in order for the listeners to compare???

Wed. 8/13/08 4:33pm From: Parq

Can he say "Schlong" on the air? I guess we're about to find out. Nice to follow it with Zep - the schlong remains the same.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:34pm From: oaklandish

hey tacoma. when is the zeppelin simulator coming out?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:34pm From: giraffe-o

Used to hate this Zepp song, but now I appreciate its irony

Wed. 8/13/08 4:35pm From: Lizardner Dave

You do need irony to make heavy metal. Also brass.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:36pm From: Vicki

beep

Wed. 8/13/08 4:36pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

You're so f******* special. Now that's funny!

Wed. 8/13/08 4:38pm From: R. P.

First time I've heard a children's choir get bleeped.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:39pm From: gumby

This is beautiful, I feel better about myself. Thank You irwin.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:40pm From: Steve Barton

I feel better about Gumby, in the afterglow...

Wed. 8/13/08 4:40pm From: Vicki

can't beat childrens choirs. Actually you can. retard choirs.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:41pm From: gumby

Sorry Irwin, Mitt malfunction

Wed. 8/13/08 4:42pm From: Parq

Vicki, you can beat children's choirs, but afterward you have to tell everybody that they fell down the stairs.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:42pm From: Irwin

I'm beginning to worry about all of you.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:42pm From: gumby

Hey, I thought they were otherly enabled choirs.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:43pm From: Vicki

no, ahead or behind - just beautiful choirs, that's the main thing :)

Wed. 8/13/08 4:44pm From: Vicki

I worry a lot too.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:45pm From: Sean Daily

Dana Drake... RAWK! Horns to the sky!

MOSH PIT!

Wed. 8/13/08 4:46pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Is Dana Drake related to B J Snowdon?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:47pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

So this comment software edits out the F-bomb, too? The other night in the Luxuria Music chat we were figuring out which of Carlin's Seven Words (and three auxiliaries) the software would bleep. I was pretty surprised at the ones the software left intact -- like "cunt."

Wed. 8/13/08 4:48pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

But do you know where B.J. Snowden is, Irwin?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:49pm From: stingy d

i call a clit a click so i'm good in every circumstance

Wed. 8/13/08 4:53pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

heard the original just this morning on wcsb.org. did you ever see Stevie Winwood's highly dialated pupils in the video to this?

Wed. 8/13/08 4:55pm From: AnAnonymousParty

This RLJ got me looking for my sunglasses (and it's kinda bongo-y), you should really give us a warning Irwin so we can be properly prepared.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:57pm From: Jim

Sick set.

Wed. 8/13/08 4:59pm From: gumby

Alright if I can't have crazy bongos. Hard Bop is fine. Muchas Gracias!

Wed. 8/13/08 5:00pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Anybody seen this web site?
http://www.spaceagepop.com/index.htm

Wed. 8/13/08 5:04pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

Hey, I actually like this song -- and it doesn't sound at all incorrect!

Wed. 8/13/08 5:06pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

AnAnonymous, I've seen that site before, and learned a lot from it.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:15pm From: AnAnonymousParty

I just got hold of a Monte Kelly album at an antique store for a $1 and was trying to find out what the guy's deal was anyway and ended up at that site ... and now I've got more stuff to look for. Irwin is mentioned there, wouldn't you know it

Wed. 8/13/08 5:22pm From: Holden like caufield

Awesome - MIdlake! 'Van Occupanther' was one of my top 5 albums last year, cant wair for their upcoming release

Wed. 8/13/08 5:22pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

Irwin is mentioned everywhere that really matters.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:23pm From: Irwin

Ain't mentioned here: http://www.barackbook.com/

Wed. 8/13/08 5:27pm From: johnc_tacoma

Irwin really liked Ronald Raygun...

Wed. 8/13/08 5:27pm From: Ike

The Midlake album was a little too soft for my tastes. It mostly sounds like Chicago or Boston or something. This song is great though. And wow, David Bowie is strangely even more compelling in German.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:28pm From: Sara

I think Irwin only likes Midlake because the vocalist sounds just like Thom Yorke.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:32pm From: Irwin

Sara, dear, you understand my contrarian nature.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:36pm From: Lizardner Dave

By the way, which way is "athwart"? Is that the opposite of "astarboard"?

Wed. 8/13/08 5:42pm From: Steve Barton

How about I just sit here until you decide, Van?

Wed. 8/13/08 5:42pm From: Parq

The 2000-year-old man to Joan of Arc: "You save France and I'll go wash up."

Wed. 8/13/08 5:44pm From: Jim

Not sure how I felt about that Juliana Hatfield thing.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:44pm From: Denise in Washington, DC

Then obviously the Barack Book doesn't matter, Irwin.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:48pm From: Steve Barton

Thanks Ir-man! My fave of the bunch. Bread up front!

Wed. 8/13/08 5:49pm From: Sean Daily

Yes, in fact I do want a danish. I'll blow in my nose on it and give it to Dumb George.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:54pm From: FS in Berkeley

Van Morrison at his/their absolute worst.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:55pm From: Abe Lincoln

Let's have a vote, for democracy. Which was the best of the Van Moreison tracks? I vote for You Say France and I'll Whistle.

Wed. 8/13/08 5:56pm From: Sara

By worst you mean best, right?

Wed. 8/13/08 5:56pm From: Steve Barton

Best comment by Parq

Wed. 8/13/08 5:58pm From: Irwin

Next year's Hoof & Mouth: someone's gotta do a Van-Bang medley.

Wed. 8/13/08 6:09pm From: Steve Barton

Nothing will top that Jacques Brel tune you did several years ago for woof-moo-ishness. I think the Van-Bang songs would go well as between-set entertainment, done while the next DJ is getting ready to sing.
