Playlist for This Is the Modern World with Trouble - October 30, 2008

Thursdays 9am - Noon on WFMU 91.1 fm 90.1 fm wfmu.org

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Loretta Lynn carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

can we talk then about costumes? this lazy magnet is very cool.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:03am From: frenchee

ps: first comment, woo-hoo!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:05am From: Bad Ronald

Morning everyone!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:07am From: annie

good morning ........ just got power back from yesterday..

Thu. 10/30/08 9:09am From: Agrimorfee

When will the Hardy Fox interview be on the archives? This is Agrimorfee from the Residents Lovers msg board!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:10am From: Bruce

First Comment!!!! ...from my cubicle.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:10am From: broonsparrow

Hello fae Scotland - just discovered your station - how's about playing some Moondog?

Thu. 10/30/08 9:11am From: Hatch

Spooky... will the whole show be like this? I sure hope so.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:17am From: Negator

Tapeworm! Hey, Trouble.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:17am From: trouble

the playlist has a mind of it's own so i don't really know what will happen...

Thu. 10/30/08 9:20am From: Bad Ronald

Can we talk about bedknobs?

Thu. 10/30/08 9:23am From: Parq

Kind of interesting how Yoko has outlasted the conventional wisdom about her and her music. Inspiring, really.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:23am From: frenchee

ooh, love "the witch" sooooo much.

Can "season of the witch" be far behind? EEEEEEEEEEK!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:24am From: m p

great show, it made me think of this - http://www.last.fm/music/SFIAS/_/My+ManI+s+On+The+Make

Thu. 10/30/08 9:27am From: dc pat

Aaah, sheeeit! Missed the Sonics. Greatest band EVER.. or maybe Times New Viking is...

Thu. 10/30/08 9:38am From: GP

Morning all....a kick to myself also for missing the Sonics...OUCH!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:40am From: annie

any meredith monk ,trouble?? she and yoko worked together long ago. not to say i don't appreciate yoko, but meredith deserves attention as well.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:42am From: Laurie

There's some really great Yoko Ono art at MOMA, too. They have this music-inspired gallery. I think it's the same area with Nan Goldin's "Ballad of Sexual Dependency," which is just fabulous.

I really enjoyed watching that Nan Goldin slideshow thingy. It was nice sitting in a room with about twenty other people who didn't feel self-conscious about laughing.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:44am From: Negator

Yoko is a supertalent. I feel she really got the shaft by getting thrust in the pop spotlight. She became medium during that time, I guess. More sexy than ever!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:44am From: Bad Ronald

Love this Phil Napolean but I fail to pick up on the spooky element. It kinda makes me want to jitterbug...

Thu. 10/30/08 9:46am From: Bad Ronald

My favorite Yoko Ono performance is "Cut".

Thu. 10/30/08 9:47am From: dc pat

Don't Worry is my fave.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:51am From: Cecile

Santana - Evil Ways or Black Magic Woman....

I like Walking on Thin Ice.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:52am From: Negator

Peter Green or Bob Welch?

Thu. 10/30/08 9:52am From: Cecile

dude....they're ripping off PRIEST.

Thu. 10/30/08 9:57am From: lucky

yeah! and on another record mac rip off santana! the nerve!!!!!

Thu. 10/30/08 9:57am From: trouble

written by peter green 1970

Thu. 10/30/08 9:59am From: Cecile

I KNOW. They were so unorginamal.

Trouble, I am playing....

Thu. 10/30/08 10:03am From: Gluck

They also ripped off Angus Podgorny.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:05am From: Cecile

WOW is it a requirement that all 'FMU AM DJs have a root canal this week?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:05am From: Swami

Root Canal! Tuesday? You, me and Ken. Anyone else?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:06am From: Cecile

Swami, have you taken Ken's suggestion about getting good pain meds yet? ;)

Thu. 10/30/08 10:06am From: GP

7" = good...Thanks Trouble.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:07am From: bzul

Weird Festival of Mouth Upheaval.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:09am From: Adrian

Clocks went back in the Uk at the weekend, I'm an hour late! Curses!

Thu. 10/30/08 10:10am From: paulthepostman (formerly 'pm')

...just back from walking the streets for money! Trouble, condolences, so nothing for the tooth fairies then?! Do you do that thing of putting a tooth under the pillow for the fairies over there?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:11am From: Cecile

Adrian, you missed out WFMU handing out money, candy, donuts and rare 45s to all listeners. Maybe next time. ;D

Thu. 10/30/08 10:13am From: paulthepostman

Adrian, aren't you an hour early?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:14am From: Laurie

I love this cat: http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/10/29/japan.station.cat/index.html?eref=rss_topstories#cnnSTCVideo

Thu. 10/30/08 10:14am From: trouble

yes we do the tooth fairy thing, but the tooth is still in my mouth. It's the soul of the tooth that has become one with the universe

Thu. 10/30/08 10:17am From: paulthepostman

Wow, your getting there by installments

Thu. 10/30/08 10:18am From: kat

Trouble, you, Ken, and Kenny G. have all had root canal issues this week. Could there be something in the water over there?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:21am From: Laurie

Or something NOT in the water? No fluoride in Jersey City water??

Thu. 10/30/08 10:21am From: annie

i think they had to cash in on thier dental plan...

Thu. 10/30/08 10:24am From: Bad Ronald

Well as far as Ken is concerned it seems it was just for the meds...

Thu. 10/30/08 10:27am From: Cecile

and now he's cruising dog parks rolling dog walkers for pet meds. Sad....

Thu. 10/30/08 10:28am From: bzul

It's a syndrome...like people with phantom college degrees or bogus claims of valorous combat experience. Gonzoliers poling along the root canal singing for attention. Tsk.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:29am From: Bad Ronald

He'll be licking toads soon...

Thu. 10/30/08 10:32am From: paulthepostman

bzul, sounds like you've got to the root of the problem

Thu. 10/30/08 10:32am From: bzul

...Acci-dentally?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:37am From: paulthepostman

Un-orthodontically?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:38am From: Swami

Cecile
Oh indeed. He disrespected my Darvocet, He'd rather bark twice for Tramadol.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:39am From: Swami

Great show Trouble, and that isn't just the Darvocet talking. I think.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:39am From: bzul

Well, you know the drill...

(Novocaine required by now for other comment watchers.)

Thu. 10/30/08 10:39am From: Bad Ronald

these puns are infant-tine!

Thu. 10/30/08 10:40am From: Raolo

do the WFMU dj's get payola to play stuff like Notwist and Panda Bear? That Panda Bear and Animal Collective stuff is okay but it seems like they have been stuck on the same "Pet Sounds" sound for the last 10 years. I saw Panda Bear live back in 2007, the only thing he played live were some vocals over his own vocal track. The rest was all samples, a very typical modern concert...these new bands just pose on stage with the samplers playing the background.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:41am From: ?

i was just going to say, raolo, that panda bear is really starting to seem like a one-trick, brian-wilson-y pony

Thu. 10/30/08 10:42am From: bzul

You tellin' me to get forked, Ronald...?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:42am From: kent

hey that troll-ertanz song ruled earlier

Thu. 10/30/08 10:44am From: Bad Ronald

Yeah or I'll have you put in dentation!

Thu. 10/30/08 10:46am From: bzul

I'll arrange me thoughts for better fang-shui.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:46am From: Kat

Jules does Aretha's "Save Me" in '69. Divine.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:47am From: Bad Ronald

So what's the molar of the story?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:49am From: bzul

Reality bites.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:50am From: Bad Ronald

I think we ground it down.

Thu. 10/30/08 10:51am From: bzul

Chew unto others...?

Thu. 10/30/08 10:53am From: Bad Ronald

Cuspid pie!

(I panicked)

Thu. 10/30/08 10:54am From: trouble

uh thanks for your concern, but i think we're done with that thread people...

Thu. 10/30/08 10:56am From: sebastian

not even close to first not even close. woo hoo.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:00am From: paulthepostman

understandably we're getting fed up to the back teeth with this

Thu. 10/30/08 11:03am From: Bad Ronald

I was just getting into the groove.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:03am From: annie

no more rhyming, i mean it!!!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:05am From: paulthepostman

Bad Ronald , don't start again ORAL have you put in dentation

Thu. 10/30/08 11:05am From: Sean Daily

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:06am From: PMD

Oh, I love the rhyming. Wish I had the brains at the moment to chime in. I'll drink more tea - see what that does.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:07am From: annie

anyone want a peanut?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:09am From: Bad Ronald

I wish stingy wuz here...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:13am From: GP

Oh oh....Annie, you said the P word...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:14am From: annie

Thu. 10/30/08 11:18am From: annie

fine, make me work so early in the day...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:18am From: GP

Annie,
Just wait til stingy comes back and then ask him.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:19am From: Bad Ronald

Annie - apparently you were there at the time...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:19am From: rhino

i think its "abbey"

Thu. 10/30/08 11:20am From: annie

yupp, very distinctive

Thu. 10/30/08 11:21am From: Bad Ronald

Hmmm - stingy's posts were deleted!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:21am From: annie

how did you find that?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:21am From: Bad Ronald

the mystery deepens...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:23am From: GP

Weidrness

Thu. 10/30/08 11:23am From: ken krimstein

uoh...oh...oh...oh....the abbey lincoln...oh...oh...oh...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:24am From: Cecile

hmmmm. best not mess with the Vermont Country Store, homes.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:24am From: dc pat

stingy appears to have been expunged from comment history. There are references to him/her but none of his comments that I can find....strange....has he been banned? Really, do a search for him on this site. And if you never hear from me again, you'll know what happened....

Thu. 10/30/08 11:25am From: dc pat

oh, Bad Ron beat me to it.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:27am From: annie

call me a newbie, but how do i find this elusive refernence (of my reference to princess bride)??

Thu. 10/30/08 11:27am From: trouble

stingy wrote me last week and said he had been suspended, i don't know why. But i do know that the individual dj can delete remarks from her or his playlist that are unsavory or just plain unhealthy.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:27am From: GP

OK, now that is really scary...how bad do you have to be to get banned. AND expunged?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:28am From: Bad Ronald

Quite an eerie development for the Halloween holiday.

*plays the theremin*

Thu. 10/30/08 11:29am From: GP

Oh..thanks Trouble ..I was typing as you were posting, so that explains it...I guess?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:30am From: Edgar Allen Post

..comments stingy, nevermore.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:31am From: GP

Shout out to Stingy if you are still watching....
p.s.: I got my 3rd VCS catalog this week...stingy, tell those dudes that they could really lower thier prices if they would send out WAY fewer catalogs.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:31am From: dc pat

yeah, the question remains: what did he do? Tun tun, tun-tuuuuuuun....and why did they delete him from all playlists?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:32am From: patrick

trouble!

nice to hear you on this blustery morning here in Portland.

-P

Thu. 10/30/08 11:33am From: Bad Ronald

he tended to be excessive and foul mouthed at times but I never detected any malice.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:34am From: jenniqua

Why do things always sound so much better in French?
Ford. Mus. Tang. BANG
Pac. O. Ro, Banne.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:34am From: trouble

hey patrick! big good vibes to you this morning!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:36am From: Patrick

thanks im gonna need them im moving into a larger studio this weekend!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:37am From: Adrian

Maybe you have a Spanish keyboard?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:38am From: annie

so....... about the peanut..

Thu. 10/30/08 11:38am From: GP

Trouble, I know you mentioned it before, but what is that Loon recording that you sometimes play during your talkovers?
Tpyning erros = brian moving too fsat for hnds

Thu. 10/30/08 11:38am From: dc pat

what really gets me is deleting him from all the playlists. Like he NEVER...EXISTED...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:38am From: Bad Ronald

salted?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:40am From: Bad Ronald

yeah DCP me too...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:40am From: CIA man

surprised he just didn't assume another alias and post under that.....

Thu. 10/30/08 11:40am From: Bad Ronald

maybe he was an apparition!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:41am From: Bad Ronald

He'd have to get some new IP addresses

Thu. 10/30/08 11:42am From: jk

oh no, this song is my girlfriends wake up alarm on her cell phone. I hear the first verse about 15 times each morning. ah.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:42am From: dc pat

yeah, definitely blocking IP.

Say, how about some Joe Meek?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:42am From: Patrick

T,
ok well im off to vote!! vote early vote often that my motto!

Thu. 10/30/08 11:43am From: GP

Annie,
stingy was freaking oot because someone at work walked by and offered him a peanut..apparently it was a co workier who had never talked to him before or something like that.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:43am From: Ike

Wow. He posted a LOT but not maliciously that I ever saw. This is disturbing. Maybe he did something ban-worthy when we weren't looking?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:43am From: GP

Freaking oot is Scottish for freaking out

Thu. 10/30/08 11:44am From: dc pat

he pulled his pants down once.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:45am From: R. P.

I think you're all losing it. There was never any poster named Stingy D. This is obviously just a case of false memories induced by crowd panic.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:45am From: annie

i get it..... thanks gp.... and all that brought us to the stingy-deletion notice.. glad i could be of assistance (??)

Thu. 10/30/08 11:46am From: bzul

Here, this morning, we might have been one tooth pun away from being pulled, ourselves.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:48am From: GP

R.P. do you happen to work for a 3 letter government agency that starts with the letter C and ends with an A?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:49am From: Bad Ronald

check on that bzul

stingy was skeeved out by the peanut guy's overall hygiene.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:49am From: Ignatius

Shut the door and listen from outside.

Thu. 10/30/08 11:51am From: trouble

Gp i don't know much about the loons. Listener dave sent the mp3 to me...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:53am From: R. P.

My employers must remain nameless!
Interesting that Trouble played "Disappear" by Cate Le Bon earlier. Maybe she knows something...

Thu. 10/30/08 11:56am From: stingy d's pal

i'm not stingy, but stingy is who i'm is, ya mans washed his hands with his asshole... so he det to me. i appreciates da luh. but mosely, i got kinked off cus i tolled angry and frandy how to blow their whistle about two weeks ago. i will call them friday. thanks for remememeemin me

Thu. 10/30/08 11:58am From: Adrian

Trouble, which email address can we send you mp3s to?

Thu. 10/30/08 11:58am From: Bad Ronald
