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.

Ah, SD, your 9:36 comment was probably the most coherent thing you've typed all month, but then you go and say something totally incomprehensible. It wouldn't be the same without you around here. Which is to say, it would be better. HA! But if you're writing a book, then at least you're going to give an editor thousands (or millions) of hours of employment!

Annie: "a random collection of thoughts and events from her life" sounds exactly like the sort of thing I would expect from someone who wants an editor who doesn't do any editing. My wife was an editor for 15 years and put up with this sort of thing all the time. Your friend is going to make some vanity press owner very happy.
Miss T: Gal Costa singing something called "divino, maravilhoso" sounds like it would be autobiographical, yeh?

Sad news. I saw Pylon on a double bill with the Method Actors (an Athens two-fer) at Trax in 1980 -- anyone else remember that West 72nd Street venue? I followed Pylon intermittently ever since. Thoughts going out to his loved ones.

There's a livejournal community called "cranky editors/editors unleashed " for Ike and the like. Stingy could start a new one -- "hashtalkers/fragmentality." I don't 'spect you'll actually mutify y'self, stingy, but don't be forced into text-tongue time-out. Keep representin' the nongeneric component of the comment blood, while posters like me can only strike up the bland.

scott, donate 12.50 during each one of your favorite shows. you'll be able to collect premiums on your total donation of $50. if you have more detailed questions, i think joe mcgasko is the person to email about that. he is nice. he will help you. get ready to have super fun during the marathon!

Thu. 2/26/09 10:37am
From:

Kent, I might be wrong, but TX Scott might need a min. $15 per pledge this year to get in drawings for bonus CD prizes, i.e. the rotating selection of prizes that are "on the block" at any given time. (Or is it still $10?) But TX Scott, if you don't care about those prize drawings, then $12.50 per show would work.
In any case, any number of pledges totaling $50 will definitely get you a T-shirt.
Thu. 2/26/09 10:37am
From:
marathon veteran
Cecile, if you're making a mouse pledge, you'll get something like 7 marathon premiums, so you can show your love to individual dee jays that way. Annie, if by the membership chat you mean these comments, there's usually a mix of pledge-related comments and non. Scott, can you possibly make it $75? Then you'd get a tee shirt *and* a dee jay marathon premium. and they are all so swell that you'll agonize over which one to pick. Plus, at $12.50 per, you could show your love to a half dozen favorites. Everybody, check out the swag selection - so much nifty stuff that you can't afford not to pledge.

ike, i kind of hope you're right about that $15 minimum for prize drawings. i hate it when something big/heavy (higher shipping costs) like a box set goes to a $10 pledger. that means the station loses money on that one.

Kent, true, but either way, many DJs make it a special higher-than-usual min. for a box set or heavy item drawing. And a lot of the $10 folks are multiple pledgers, some even with Mouse prize accts.
That John Tchai track was great. And that was Paul Weller? Really? Wow, I've never loved a Paul Weller song that much.
