Wed. 4/22/09 9:03am From: Ken

Hola everybody! Thanks Tim for last week's show!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:04am From: Mac

Harley David son of a bitch? Welcome back. Your replacement was muy swell!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:06am From: L

Great show so far!

Yes we Ken!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:06am From: dale

I have to plead ignorance. Is the word on the home page pronounced "kwix-otic-ly" or "key-otic-ly"?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:07am From: jaypee

Good morning.

I've been hearing a lot of ol' Serge on WFMU lately. It makes me think I'm at my friends place because he's always putting his record albums on the turntable. I think he's trying to seduce me. Is that what WFMU is trying to do?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:07am From: Starman

Greeting everyone, the show sounds grest so far Ken

Wed. 4/22/09 9:09am From: dale

Hey, you already changed the caption under Audrey!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:11am From: Parq

Dale, it refreshes with a new one automatically Keep hitting "refresh" -- collect them all!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:11am From: owen

dale. the second pronounciation. like the book don quixote (silent 'x' and accent on the 'e')

Wed. 4/22/09 9:13am From: BSI

Ken, Ken, Ken!
Save me from myself!
I gots me a musical itch I just can't skretch!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:14am From: MS

dale,

Actually, anglophones use the first as standard pronunciation for "quixotic"-- quix-ah-tic. However, English-speakers are supposed to pronounce "Quixote" correctly.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:14am From: Ken

Tell me!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:15am From: dale

I always get it confused with "buxotica" from Russ Myers.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:15am From: owen

realy? that's me told.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:15am From: ?

caption to the left: >How can you be so fucking be beautiful and so fucking wrong?<

Geez, I dunno - makes sense to me.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:17am From: still b/p

The captions may change, but the song remains the same: Audrey sits in the window to sing Moon River; I weep.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:19am From: Parq

The panel accompanying Fugazi pretty much sums up my day.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:20am From: Joe

I, too, am being constantly thwarted by doors.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:21am From: John from Oslo

Is that Tom Wait's little sister? I like it!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:21am From: LIzardner Dave

Are you a doors fan?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:21am From: Listenerer David

Can I get that kugel recipe again?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:21am From: Chris

This version of Heart of Glass is brilliant.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:22am From: jen v

seconded!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:22am From: BSI

ah! That's the stuff!
Scratch! Scratch!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:23am From: Rodney Rippy

Ken,

Would it be possible to play that Chewbacca song again? The one where he's all upset about Solo leaving?

That broke my heart.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:23am From: Jess

It's not just a little bit creepy, it's a lotta bit creepy. And I like that.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:24am From: jen v

also, hi ken!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:24am From: Chris

Could almost be Erica Pomerantz

Wed. 4/22/09 9:25am From: still b/p

The door encounter is from the comic adaptation of Russ Meyer's follow-up to Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! ..ain't it?

And that song is big bueno. Fabulous, Big Blood! Cover! Cover!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:25am From: Ken

isnt that big blood cover incredible?!!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:25am From: Sazerac

There's always room for Joy Division.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:25am From: dale

ken, you should oversleep more often. a fine, fine set.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:25am From: jaypee

Agreed.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:26am From: clyde stubblefied

I'm not sure there is room for all those drum fills

Wed. 4/22/09 9:27am From: jen v.

that big blood cover made my day so much better. is that on a premium?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:27am From: Parq

There is some great Big Blood to be had on the Free Music Archives. I sort of think they ought to send the Residents a Father's Day card, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:27am From: Listener James from Westwood

Joy Division. Love it.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:29am From: PMD

mornin' Ken and all. Ken, how are your hemorrhoids?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:30am From: Cecile

KEN. KEN.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:31am From: JCityJensen

Crap missed the Fugazi!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:33am From: John from Oslo

I feel a remix contest coming up : )

Wed. 4/22/09 9:35am From: Ken

Cecile. Cecile

Wed. 4/22/09 9:35am From: God

The comments cease whilst Ken speaks.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:36am From: Ken

Wrong Roids PMD! Steroids. Get it straight fer fucksake.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:36am From: Ken

John - What's your remix contest idea?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:37am From: molerat

I was wondering about that Commune track too.

FWIW, I found a video by Mr. Fukuoka: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eqPORZIrDU

Wed. 4/22/09 9:37am From: Cecile

I hate to say this, but chians make some of my favorite coffee now. I *gasp* like McDonald's and Bruegger's coffee a lot.

I guess I don't hate to say it that much cause I dais it.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:37am From: Cecile

said it. Why would I dais it?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:38am From: John from Oslo

I was thinking of the religious thingie you were talking about Ken - gotta be some sounds to tweak there ; )

Wed. 4/22/09 9:38am From: Pearly Sweets

McDonald's coffee is pretty all right. I picked some up on the way to work. Tastes better than the bux and is 3 bucks cheaper to boot!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:39am From: Ken

Cecile, it's OK. I like Dunkin Donuts coffee. I love you. Wont someone bring me some coffee?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:39am From: Cecile

I hate to say it, but the whole concept of the record squicks me out. I know. I just have a bone the size of Finland to pick with the Manson Family.

I mean, Pearly! There's a reason why they call it Charbuckx.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:39am From: Chirs

How about this for a remix contest? Susan Boyle rermixes. The audio of that Britain's Got Talent thing is readily available....

Wed. 4/22/09 9:40am From: Joe

So this awesome song WASN'T inspired by Our Cleansing Christ Light Master Shoko Asahara?\

...

I've made a terrible mistake.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:40am From: Parq

"Urine for a treat"??

Wed. 4/22/09 9:40am From: Pearly Sweets

I used some corn weenie samples in the mix I've been working on. It helps kick things off right.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:40am From: Cecile

HOMAGOD I love DD coffee. But we have no DDs in MN, although someone is hoping to open some.

I love you too, Ken.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:40am From: BSI

John: Surely so! But that whole corn weenie blissful monstrosity would be a tough act to follow, methinks.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:41am From: Ken

I have to play this 10 minute long song so I can go make some coffee. sorry. at least its a good one.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:42am From: Cecile

How about a hummpa remix contest?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:42am From: Joe

Though if any of you unenlightened are interested in Our Holy God Lord, perhaps you should watch this video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5X2a90WWahE

Wed. 4/22/09 9:43am From: Cecile

this is Eyvind Kang? I've only heard his violin jazz stuff.. This doesn't seem right.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:43am From: Janet H

I was about to go to DD to get some coffee and a breakfast sandwich. I just woke up!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:44am From: Lizardner Dave

I wish we had Caribou coffee shops in NY. Much better than Starbucks.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:44am From: Cecile

drink some for me, man! mmmm.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:45am From: Cecile

Caribou has its strengths and weaknesses.
But it is getting less roasty, which is good!

The people who started it used to work for Dunkin Donuts!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:45am From: Pearly Sweets

This new bowie track is pretty air-tight.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:46am From: Bad Ronald

Testes - having a ball!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:47am From: c c rider

kidney - urine my heart?!?!?!?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:47am From: joshua K

How do i type in this box

Wed. 4/22/09 9:47am From: Janet H

I have caribou coffee shops by me, but i get migranes from drinking their coffee.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:47am From: Cecile

Ovaries egg you on

Wed. 4/22/09 9:48am From: JCityJensen

http://aarondunkel.com/Sarin_Wanted_Poster.jpg

ken's a wanted man in japan

Wed. 4/22/09 9:48am From: trrrish

ovary - ovary easy

Wed. 4/22/09 9:49am From: Ratt

Yes, he's a wanted maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:49am From: PMD

32k stream is burping a lot

Wed. 4/22/09 9:49am From: Cecile

that's ovary easy for you to say

Wed. 4/22/09 9:49am From: Joe

That japanese police sketch artist needs to find a new line of work.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:49am From: glandmaster flash

gland to mouth operation - what the hell is that refering to?!?!?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:50am From: Cecile

but really, this is Eyvind Kang?

Wed. 4/22/09 9:51am From: Ken

Yeah, this is Kang. He's a diverse fellow.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:52am From: dragonflyshards

Ken that poster is beautiful!...just had overies-not easy...& day-old homemade coffee.Ps-"hand-to mouth"play.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:53am From: Ken

THIS song here - God Be With You Till We Meet Again - will soon be the subject of a remix and covers contest for the Free Music Archive. It's an old Mormon Hymn from the 19th century so it's in the pu8blic domain. But it's an amazingly great fucking song.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:53am From: glandmaster

i had a gland in my mouth last night

Wed. 4/22/09 9:53am From: Cecile

Wow. I have to check this out.
His violin work is outstanding. I love that record he did with Michael Bisio this guy I know put out about OMG, is it nine years ago now? Jeez.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:53am From: L

Where do you get these playlist images? Awesome :)

Wed. 4/22/09 9:54am From: Cecile

sounds great Ken. I gotta get over there.

it's my son's (dc si) birthday! That squirrel thing is killing me! Gotta make one of those...

Wed. 4/22/09 9:56am From: Happy Listener

Ohayo, bakayaro!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:56am From: Janet H

cool, flying squirrel!......brb, gonna go get my coffee now....

Wed. 4/22/09 9:56am From: Cecile

nice, john
maybe a hummpa Korpklaani showdown. WHho knows.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:56am From: Ken

Man, I am a coffee whore. There weren't enough beans for a full pot so I got down on my hands and knees and scraped extra beans off the floor. Dont tell anybody.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:57am From: Happy Listener

Love the squirrel clip!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:57am From: post it

rocky the flying squirrel

Wed. 4/22/09 9:57am From: Sazerac

Just not enough coffee this morning.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:57am From: Cecile

as long as you didn't shoot them into your arm

Now can you yell i'm a whore on the air?

That's something we should remix...

Wed. 4/22/09 9:59am From: BSI

christ, you people, i need some coffee now.

Kenya AA or bust, mofos.

Wed. 4/22/09 9:59am From: Happy Listener

Coffee Whores of the world, unite and take over!

Wed. 4/22/09 9:59am From: Cecile

I'm just trying not to talk about ardeningay

Wed. 4/22/09 10:00am From: Ken

That squirrel deserves it by the way. It barks and hisses at me and wont let me onto the porch sometimes. And he was fine. But he wont be coming back, I can guarantee you that. Fucking squirrel.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:00am From: nasok

i could watch that squirrel for hours

Wed. 4/22/09 10:00am From: Sazerac

I'm a coffee achiever!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:00am From: jaypee

I've had to reduce my coffee intake. This is terrible as I love the taste and aroma of coffee. I'm contemplating decaffinated coffee. Please shoot me.

Cecille, since you're in MN, aren't you into the Borg-like Dunn brothers?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:00am From: PMD

oh oh oh - where can I find that squirrel clip?? I have to send to my brother.

Oh, and us non coffee drinkers will rule you all someday

Wed. 4/22/09 10:01am From: John from Oslo

I just can't stop watching that squirrel...

Wed. 4/22/09 10:01am From: Pearly Sweets

Hooray! I just checked to see that Andy and I are friends on facebook. He's so dreamy.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:02am From: JCityJensen

the squirrel is awesome - we need to set this up on wall street.....http://aarondunkel.com/mickeysarin.jpg

Wed. 4/22/09 10:03am From: Ken

Gosh PMD, where can you find the squirrel clip? Where the hell is it?! It's right there!!!! Grab it from the page you're asking on!!!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:03am From: Cecile

Dunn Bros can be good, but it totally depends on the store. They do make a really nice iced tea that tastes really good without sugar (how I like it)

Also I found out their decaf really only has 5% less caffeine than regular coffee. Team Caffeine indeed.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:06am From: cohen

bought me a ticket for an airplane...

Wed. 4/22/09 10:07am From: jaypee

Eeeesh. My favorite TC coffee shop at the moment is Audobon in NE, always a good cup when I'm visiting friends up there.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:07am From: dragonflyshards

where i live theres a cafe that roasts its own (organic) coffee 2-3 X a week-AND its <1.50(large)...psJAYPEE id switch to Irish breakfast tea before decaf coffee.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:08am From: Cecile

Audobon is EXECELLENT.
I also like Diamonds very much. And the Steep and Brew in St. Paul. Riverview WIne Bar also has a great coffee bar.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:09am From: dragonfshards

...so im spoiled.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:09am From: leonard post

how come these post always turn into discussions about coffee or gardening?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:10am From: Cecile

yes, you are.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:10am From: Cecile

Because both are magic.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:10am From: Pearly Sweets

Sometimes they become about Ray Manzarek

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: G.

What comes into people's minds --> What goes into their keyboards. What else? Personality is fate. :-)

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: annie

did someone mention gardening??

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: posti it note

and how often people use coffe grinds for their garden...wierd...

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: jaypee

Not to mention birds.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: Cecile

Or the Go-Gos being on the bill with Black Randy instead of the Mentors.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: dragoflyshads

-or glandular function

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: still b/p

A Ray Manzarek blend -- now THAT would be an extreeeeemely decaffeinated and bottomless cup of coffee.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: Happy Listener

I drink fair trade, organic coffee. Especially when playing keyboards.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:12am From: PMD

It's so nice Neil agreed to come to the show tonight

Wed. 4/22/09 10:13am From: Cecile

Hola, Annie!
You like coffee, too, right?

Personality, or Wessonality, is destiny.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: post it

no, no one mentioned gardening or offee

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: Happy Listener

What's your Epsonality?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: Mike

Yo La Tengo's best song, by far

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: PMD

Now now Ken... I'm not on a coffee high like you. Please don't say you're going to add a scotcheroo to the mix.
And I'm a technoidiot, so didn't think of that.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: Cecile

Ken, can you slide some FotC on for me?
Or that one Bats song "Crooked Path" which NOBODY will play for me.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:14am From: post it

sorry i meant ardening or coffee

Wed. 4/22/09 10:15am From: Mike

I like Tom Courtnay a bit better, but indeed, it rocketh.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:16am From: Cecile

I mean, as Cecile, what I said before as Mike.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:16am From: post it

aw what a cute little rat

Wed. 4/22/09 10:16am From: Mike

true, so does Sugar Cube. The "by far" should come out

Wed. 4/22/09 10:16am From: dragonflyshards

wow!creature features

Wed. 4/22/09 10:16am From: listener mark

Enjoying my trader joe's fair trade organic bolivian blend. Laughing at that squirrel. I love it. Have to make one myself.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: post it

i cant drink coffee it makes my heart go pitter patter

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: G.

I never got the Starbucks thing, and for taste reasons only. Those mixed coffee drinks are too hi-cal for me, So when I got plain coffee there, I would think they'd made a bad batch. It tasted like ash. Seriously. I decided they burned it on purpose to get you to buy the mixed drinks, which they make more money on, and where the ash taste is covered up by sugar and flavorings. Yum!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: Chris

Yeah, Joe's has some good coffees. The French Roast is nice.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: Cecile

But it is indeed a great one, Mike

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: annie

i like gardening and very strong coffee... reheating some from yesterday as we speak.. espresso with two raw sugars,, nectar. ken, when they get my donation processed there is an extra 5 in there for your tramadol addiction. i wrote a note. hope they follow through

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: Ken

Cecile - Of course I know what FotC is, but for the sake of PMD< can you please spell it out?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:18am From: Parq

Chris, that's "Freedom Roast".

Wed. 4/22/09 10:19am From: G.

FotC -- Friend(s) of the Comments

Wed. 4/22/09 10:19am From: Cecile

Could be, G.
Their not burned roast is pretty good. But really, I prefer their snack plates to anything there.

Thanks for playing " commune No You"with correct artist name.I will　inform　Shiro about this with email

Wed. 4/22/09 10:20am From: PMD

Thank you all. The short bus was really crowded this morning and am just getting settled.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:21am From: Cecile

tell Shiro, great song! And good that he isn't pro-sarin gas! Very good!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:21am From: Ken

Thank you Cecile. Now for the sake of poor Sean Daily, please let him know where he may find music by the FotC.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:21am From: cc rider

what is this hippy crap. play some chicago!!!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:21am From: dc pat

annie! Don't start the gardening talk again or some one will get pissed...

Starbucks makes their coffee to mix with a ton of dairy products, so the base coffee is too strong and ashy. People that go to Starbucks don't really like coffee--they like coffee-flavored milkshakes..

Wed. 4/22/09 10:22am From: PodSeed

"Hard Habit to Break" please.....

Wed. 4/22/09 10:22am From: Cecile

Aw, annie, you think of everything.

Annie, that's what I always get. mmm

Wed. 4/22/09 10:23am From: cc rider

did u know starbucks has no policy against allowing known pedophiles to frequent their store

Wed. 4/22/09 10:23am From: Cecile

You know what, dc pat, people can move around it.
Belock's crowd was crabby yesterday. Maybe I'll find some stories about baseball players who garden and share them next week.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:24am From: G.

Exactly, DCP. They don't sell great coffee, they sell Mickey D shakes jiggered for a more upscale market. Making it hot instead of cold doesn't hide that!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:24am From: still b/p

I don't drink me no coffee. Today, I feel like the squirrel of difference climbing onto the porch of cultural commonality only to be snap-launched by the colander of cold ostracism.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:25am From: Ken

This coffee I scraped from the floor is really good! Just nobody tell Scott, Liz or Jason about it. I done a bad thing.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:26am From: BSI

cold ostrich goes well with a strong coffee.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:26am From: Ken

Why did Electrelane have to break up?!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:26am From: Janet H

I'm back now with dd coffee

Wed. 4/22/09 10:26am From: Parq

When we can, we buy a couple of different roasts from a local purveyor and do our own blend. Aftrer you get used to that, it doesn't matter what fast food coffee you buy coz they're all inferior.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:27am From: PMD

still b/p - we must unite and be the cutter of the cord that lauches difference into the nethersphere

Wed. 4/22/09 10:27am From: annie

there is no place that makes coffee strong enough for me. and just having had breakfast at a local diner, i can easily report that this coffee was bland and had no bite whatsoever. in my cafe we made it strong ...

Wed. 4/22/09 10:28am From: annie

parq, isn't there a coffee snob group in FB? there should be.. and we will keep out all those who buy coffee at dunkin donuts..

Wed. 4/22/09 10:29am From: coffee club

annie, Cecile: I was just kidding--we can talk about gardening until we're green in the face.

I like strong coffee too but there's something up w/ Starbucks...

Welp, as I said, dc si's b-day so gotta go....

Wed. 4/22/09 10:29am From: Lizzy

Why is Ken so angry and quiet today?
Is he the Craigslist killer?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:30am From: G.

Joe B got annoyed by the gardening discussion in the noon hour, and then just before 2 got really annoyed when he thought someone was implying that the 1990 Iggy tune he played wasn't as classic as Velvet era. He ended up deleting his own comments about people having bad musical taste, and the gardening ones too etc. Nothing wrong with being opinionated -- otherwise, how do you do an interesting show you choose yourself?

Wasn't New York supposed to be the place you went to get away from bland, monolithic US culture? I don't even travel that much, and I've recently been to three or four cities that are less mall-ized than New York! I feel like a bait-and-switch victim.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:30am From: Cecile

I am so looking up baseball players who garden though, that's a promise.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:31am From: annie

my significant other loves instant.. even cold... and about the gardening dcp- don't get me started!!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:31am From: dc pat

yeah, I made the "nothing good after New Values" remark. I was only half serious but BOY did it set Joe off.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:32am From: John from Oslo

That last gif made me bicepsual

Wed. 4/22/09 10:32am From: Cecile

Sure, G. But hey, really, how did the least innocuous topic on the planet blow up into that? Yikes.

And I was COMPLIMENTING him for playing late Iggy. That blew up in my face.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:32am From: annie

PMD & me: It's a no-Joe risin'!!!!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:32am From: Bad Ronald

Joe was being spoofed by a troll. He did not post any of the berating comments, that's not his style.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:32am From: Cecile

but I love Joe and his show and wouldn't change it or him. Yesterday was just weird.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:33am From: john

i like instant gardening too

Wed. 4/22/09 10:33am From: dc pat

I don't think he cared about the gardening talk...but I dunno. GOTTA GO!

Wed. 4/22/09 10:34am From: Cecile

That's what I thought, BR. It sounded harsh, and he usually doesn't comment as much as he did yesterday, unless it's to give info on a record.

nice, LD! i'll mark him down.

Ok, what was the last show anyone saw?

Wed. 4/22/09 10:35am From: G.

See my last sentence in my last comment. The DJs affect the tone for their comments board to some extent, even though they may feel they are at the mercy of listeners. I figured Joe might have been annoyed about offair stuff, and that affected how comments went.

Wed. 4/22/09 10:35am From: john

great music video

Wed. 4/22/09 10:37am From: Cecile

Yeah, G, his bad mood travelled fast. ;)

This is pretty unremarkable, but NOTHING can match the sadness of his concert performances in 82: head-set, Lawrence Olivier-esque gesturing... ugh. It's easy to take him now, if you just think of Ben Gazzara.

You can turn off auto-correction on the iPhone.
Settings -> General -> Keyboard (towards the bottom) and Auto-Correction is an option to turn on or off. I haven't really needed to do that because apparently I don't curse enough on mine. I'm doing it wrong.

This is the magic of Ken. Ken plays records and you go "holy shit, that is awesome" and then you buy them and play them outside of the context of the show and they don't work. Still, everyone wins, Ken does a great show and the people who make the records get paid.

No, that would be me from the short bus.

Yes, LD, I've experienced that phenomenon all throughout WFMU. Fascinating, isn't it? It shows the power of a good DJ mix and segue.

WOW! Blanketship is mashing up my favourite Iron Butterfly song! Thanks, Ken!

Maybe Ken should rename his show "The Magic of Ken."

These message board math problems are hard!

Digging pretty much the entire show a bunch.

Hey, that Elakelaiset song made me think about what we'd hear if Brave Combo were Finnish rather than Texan. Maybe pretty much that.

The moving pictures frighten me. Except for the squirrel-flinger, which is cool.

(I think you'll find a high correlation between people who like the squirrel-flinger and people who've ever in their lives, even as a small child, tried to maintain a birdfeeder.)

Thanks again for introducing me to Jonathan Kane, even though he put such a spell on me I could not bear to get near him like one would avoid the sun. I don't hear you out-and-out sing praises for a musical artist too often. I went into that mysterious place again not only when you played his stuff on this show, but then more so when you made that comment that you super love JKs music..... ps: I've heard him play just about all of his numbers live. Sadly, he's a lot better on CD than in clubs. No fault of his; bad sound engineers. So sad.

Just listened to the whole show. You are in my tops, Ken. Awesome show. You didn't really talk that much either. Hmmmmm..........

Listener comments!
