Listener comments!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:03pm From: Sean Daily

First comment! Woo hoo!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:05pm From: Parq

First cup of coffee. Even more so.

Mon. 10/13/08 12:06pm From: GP

Liz,
Does that Dungen track end like that or where you just tired of listening to it?

Mon. 10/13/08 12:08pm From: Doug

Oh damn! New Circle!

I so happy

Mon. 10/13/08 12:09pm From: Liz B.

That's actually how it ends.

Mon. 10/13/08 12:15pm From: Nichole

Thoroughly enjoying the show this morning! (in Montana)

Mon. 10/13/08 12:16pm From: not for nothin

but these guys have been making this song for 30 years, and i'm sick of it!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:30pm From: Cecile

whooo Alan Parsons cover!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:38pm From: Ike

That awesome track is inspired by tea? Usually I'm skeptical of anything "inspired by" anything, but tea is definitely a muse. My decaf black tea this morning is helping me stay sane.

Mon. 10/13/08 12:39pm From: Nichole

Yesss! Dead Western just played a show in Missoula, he was fantastic! I love this record!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:49pm From: jen

my roommate just said to me, "liz is kicking butt on her show." and i said, "liz always kicks butt on her show." it's true!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:49pm From: bocaberta

great show, liz. keep on with the good work. yours truly, boca.

Mon. 10/13/08 12:51pm From: Liz B.

Thanks guys!

Mon. 10/13/08 12:59pm From: GP

Man, I am totally singing this ALL day long, thanks LIZ

Mon. 10/13/08 12:59pm From: detroitdave

Hi Liz! Hey all.........the market is up 560 pts and oil is low...WOOoooo HOOooo! A Good Monday!

Mon. 10/13/08 1:03pm From: detroitdave

Dana Drake???

Mon. 10/13/08 1:07pm From: Cecile

I snuggle with coffee. Poor man's Ritalin, I call it.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:08pm From: don2D

heard your show in my car ... now i'm on the internet ... how can I hear more of the kurt and chris weisman sounds ... you made my day with that. It's the kind of stuff I've been tuning into WFMU for over the last 20 years! thanks

Mon. 10/13/08 1:10pm From: Cecile

down payment blues by AC/DC is a great unemployed song.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:11pm From: HotRod

Times are tough! At least we always have music.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:15pm From: detroitdave

Like Sean D sez.......Yes.. the music......the precious music...

Mon. 10/13/08 1:15pm From: Listener Ed

Andy, send a resume to Andy Adler, Managing Editor, Vantage Press, Inc., 419 Park Ave. So., NYC 10016. We're hiring free-lance editors. I will tell him to look out for. Cheers,

Mon. 10/13/08 1:16pm From: Scott

Ha ha! These are great laid off tunes. I wish I knew of these when I was laid off. Hey Andy!

Mon. 10/13/08 1:17pm From: (mta) Tony

Hey V, don't you ever sleep?

Liz, will your boyfriend work for food? Dinner is prepared if he can re-design a website.

Liz, has any swag been mailed out yet since last marathon?

Mon. 10/13/08 1:17pm From: HotRod

I needed these tunes. Thanks, Liz.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:17pm From: fishmonkeystew

Hi Liz!! How 'bout "Hot Plate Heaven at the Green Hotel" by Zappa? It'd fit right in.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:19pm From: Cecile

honest to god, that AC/DC is great.
"I have a Cadillac, but I can't afford the gasoline" is one of the choice lines...

And thank for playing the DOGG!

Mon. 10/13/08 1:20pm From: Cecile

Although, as a recovering English major, I keep changing it to "ON my resume" in my head.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:20pm From: Monkey Brain

Gary "U.S." Bonds, "Out of Work"?

Mon. 10/13/08 1:20pm From: HotRod

Who needs sleep when you have WFMU?

Mon. 10/13/08 1:23pm From: Cecile

I wonder if the Internet put the unemployed sweetheart out of work, too? ;)

Mon. 10/13/08 1:23pm From: Tom (The Bactrian Support Network)

Yes we have music and each other, I am also one of those Welfare Recipients for now anywho...

Mon. 10/13/08 1:24pm From: Cecile

I LOVE Bob Newhart. LOVE.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:25pm From: Cecile

THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR the AC/DC. or the Seedies as some call them.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:26pm From: Tom (The Bactrian Support Network)

AC/DC should have been Categorized as punk back in the day.. why Metal beyond me ....

Mon. 10/13/08 1:27pm From: Tom (The Bactrian Support Network)

Pat Duncan & Billy Kelly - there are Paralells ..

Mon. 10/13/08 1:27pm From: R. P.

"Do They Owe Us a Living?" Maybe Jeffrey Lewis' cover.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:28pm From: Cecile

There are a lot of metal heads who love them, but don't consider them metal, more like hard blues rock.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:29pm From: Cecile

CAN'T EVEN FEED MY CAT!

Mon. 10/13/08 1:30pm From: Cecile

thank you so much again

Mon. 10/13/08 1:31pm From: paw

ac/dc? really?

/sigh.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:31pm From: Sean Daily

Gods, I love "Hallelujah I'm a Bum".

Mon. 10/13/08 1:31pm From: (mta) Tony

Great Gary U.S. Bonds "Out of Work" suggestion...

Can ANYONE tell me if any swag's been mailed out since last Marathon? Just wondering...

Mon. 10/13/08 1:32pm From: detroitdave

Harry mcClintock RULES the roost!!

Mon. 10/13/08 1:33pm From: Cecile

I got swag about five weeks ago, Tony.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:37pm From: Jeff M

Great show -- it's got a cool collaborative energy. Which is not to imply there's anything inferior about a classic solo Liz show, but it's just fascinating how when you kids are both there in the studio, there's a distinct feel.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:37pm From: (mta) Tony

Thank you, Cecile, for letting me know they are being sent and they are in fact a bit behind, I presume due to Maegan's departure.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:38pm From: Cecile

I would still drop a line inquiring about it, never hurts.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:38pm From: geoffrey

earnst stoneman
all i gots gone
it son the internet archive its a good unemployment/loss song

Mon. 10/13/08 1:41pm From: Cecile

you should also mash up some eHarmony commercials in there, too...

Mon. 10/13/08 1:43pm From: Cecile

Oh - Merle Haggard - If We Make It Through December

Mon. 10/13/08 1:44pm From: (mta) Tony

Thank you, Cecile, for your good recommendation.

Mon. 10/13/08 1:57pm From: Cecile

GoF is always the right answer

Mon. 10/13/08 1:58pm From: Jeff M

This track (the B12 one) puts me in mind of some stuff on the vocal-less disc from Pinch's Underwater Dancehall. Except now it's not the current track anymore. Never mind.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:14pm From: Jeff M

Okay, a track whose energy is much lower than some recent things you've been playing (kinds draggy, in fact) but whose title is a darned fine thematic match is:

Poverty (Once Upon A Time in America) from John Zorn's "The Big Gundown".

Mon. 10/13/08 2:16pm From: Jeff M

kinda, I mean. Not kinds.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:23pm From: Cecile

I am holding out for the Death Magnetic remastering. You know, mixing it like it should have been mixed in the first place.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:25pm From: Cecile

geez, let me get into it before you fast forward it ADD people...;D

Mon. 10/13/08 2:25pm From: Beth

Hey stop talking over the Metallica. I haven't heard it yet, so it would be nice to not have the critical chatter over.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:26pm From: Ike

Thank you for reminding me that Metallica is mind-bogglingly lame, pathetic, and boring.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:26pm From: Scott

You have to laugh like Beavis and Butthead while listening to Metallica

Mon. 10/13/08 2:27pm From: SJ

Sounds like they pasted the same snare hit over every beat too..another insidious modern production technique.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:27pm From: Cecile

Hey, A3 has slow bits, too. You should fast forward thru them...

I cut Metallica so much slack for making Master of Puppets. Still. I am pathetic, as well.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:29pm From: Liz B.

Ha ha, sorry for the Metallica ADD, it's just that a band like Death Comes Along does the slow buildup to rocking finish much better.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:31pm From: Cecile

now, play some witchcraft....

Mon. 10/13/08 2:32pm From: Jeff M

Bob Katz is a pretty well-respected mastering engineer who often writes about the excessive compression problem these days. He has some articles at his site (some kind of technical), and he has his own "honor roll" he maintains of those now-rare releases which DON'T suck due to over-compression:

Mon. 10/13/08 2:38pm From: stingy d

i think i hate yo la tengo for personal reasons unrelated to personal reasons if you know what i mean

Mon. 10/13/08 2:39pm From: Cecile

stingy, hunh?

Mon. 10/13/08 2:41pm From: stingy d

yo la tengo bites

Mon. 10/13/08 2:41pm From: Liz B.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:42pm From: there i saidf it!

this gunsligners track is 1,000 megagrams of pain!!!!!!

Mon. 10/13/08 2:43pm From: stingy d

yo liz... but i did.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:43pm From: Cecile

why are we bringing up yo la tengo? Do they have something to do with Hey Colossus?

Mon. 10/13/08 2:46pm From: stingy d

i brought up yo la tengo, cus i was gona and whatever, and then i came back, and i was here and everything, and i looked at the playlist so far and everything, and i saw that that dumb yo la tengo track got played and everythign, and i came to the conclusion that i don't them and whatever, earlier today or something.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:47pm From: Jeff M

I could totally see Bill Zurat playing this Matmos track during an overnight.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:48pm From: Cecile

Oh, I gotcha now.

Mon. 10/13/08 2:50pm From: stingy d

on the positive side... gunslinger beat the shit out of everything... and that matmos song was really cool, and i like (you) liz berg

Mon. 10/13/08 2:50pm From: detroitdave
