Wed. 5/6/09 12:30pm From: Jed

Wed. 5/6/09 12:47pm From: Pearly Sweets

iTunes is a true champ

Wed. 5/6/09 12:48pm From: Carmichael

Kenny's goin' all AOR on us ....

Wed. 5/6/09 12:50pm From: Pearly Sweets

I like to imagine there is some studio hair guitar going on right now.

Wed. 5/6/09 12:50pm From: Pearly Sweets

Air guitar too. But hair guitar sounds cooler.

Wed. 5/6/09 12:51pm From: Carmichael

Its a Wednesday Rock Block for ya, right here on W-F-M-U!!!

Wed. 5/6/09 12:51pm From: Negator

Where is your boy wonder? I think that kid that was helping you read the tax code really helped your show, Kenny. Somehow you need to get a full time child soundboard like him to bounce these ideass off of.

Wed. 5/6/09 12:52pm From: Some Guy in the Audience

Play Whipping Post!

Wed. 5/6/09 12:53pm From: Pearly Sweets

Now this is a toe tapper!

Wed. 5/6/09 12:54pm From: Carmichael

The Zappa version of Whipping Post.

Wed. 5/6/09 12:55pm From: BSI

I don't know whether to hop around in a frenzy of joy, or vomit! Awesome!

Wed. 5/6/09 12:58pm From: phillip

STOP IT! STOOOOOP ITTTTTTTT!!!! my mother just died have you no pity man!

Wed. 5/6/09 12:59pm From: annie

Wed. 5/6/09 12:59pm From: phillip

YOUR TORTURING ME

Wed. 5/6/09 1:00pm From: Carmichael

We're gettin' there, Annie. Will happen about 3 pm ....

Wed. 5/6/09 1:00pm From: postmanpaul

we're all petty bourgeois now kenny, i blame it on the paradigm shift.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:00pm From: Pearly Sweets

I kinda want to jazz dance to this.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:00pm From: jojo

wow, hear that cyborg sing!! this kind of stuff makes me believe in intelligent design and that we will all be monkeys soon! (not the other way around)

Wed. 5/6/09 1:01pm From: J-Mar

You know, this very song was stuck my head just a little while ago.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:01pm From: NS Andy

Finally hitting your stride, Kenny. Nice!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:01pm From: ?

Roland Barthes- the use by date has already expired. We should be able to buy these ideas at the day old bakery outlet. I like my culture in a petri dish- fresh.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:02pm From: jon

My God! You have such a beautiful voice!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:02pm From: BSI

GOD! YESS!
I'm peeing giggling cherubs now, baby!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:02pm From: risky!

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:02pm From: jon

Rock Off, Kenny!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:03pm From: ?

Dude, just wait until he starts discussing the Brahms concerto . . . Duuuude . . .

Wed. 5/6/09 1:04pm From: postmanpaul

i knew the listener hour would eventually turn out like this one day...

Wed. 5/6/09 1:05pm From: ?

and Jakobson, man, Jakobson . . .

Wed. 5/6/09 1:07pm From: BSI

Rather like AIG, the alienation of the common man can SUCK IT!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:07pm From: postmanpaul

...not forgetting alvin toffler

Wed. 5/6/09 1:08pm From: postmanpaul

...not forgetting alvin toffler

Wed. 5/6/09 1:09pm From: Carmichael

Just don't sing the greatest hits of Marshall MacLuhan. He had too many socialist ideas. I've kept an eye on him and his descendants, just in case.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:10pm From: AlizaEss

Hee, my boss just walked up as I was listening to this :D The English major and anarcho-syndicalist in me delighted.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:11pm From: BSI

ah!
best grease band tune ever....
me head 'splode.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:11pm From: phillip

whew thank god he stopped. i was ready to put the belt around my neck and hang myself from my bathroom door

Wed. 5/6/09 1:13pm From: Carmichael

This song relies too much on melody, beat and general organization to be the Hampton Grease Band.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:14pm From: NS Andy

Yes, come to Halifax. It's nice. A bit chilly, but the health insurance is free.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:14pm From: postmanpaul

phillip - r.i.p. posthumously

Wed. 5/6/09 1:15pm From: ?

so, would Barthes agree that a discussion of gardening on the comments board is a perpetuation of petit-bourgeouis interlocutory play, exacerbating the notional dialectic of normative contestation?

Wed. 5/6/09 1:18pm From: Mr. Tautology

He might. Then again, he might not.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:20pm From: AnAnonymousParty

I just got here. Did I miss the Happening?

Wed. 5/6/09 1:20pm From: Terry

Go vaygun!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:21pm From: frenchy

Kenny G....cool it, bro!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:21pm From: annie

does this mean you're practicing vaygun-omics?

Wed. 5/6/09 1:24pm From: BSI

That Kenny Gee... a tempeh-muncher. I shoulda known.

and a lot of gravel too.
and a lot of gravel too.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:25pm From: philllip

Wed. 5/6/09 1:33pm From: phillip

WELL I WOUNT HEAR OF IT! I HAVE A ZUNE AND A LOVE IT, DO YA HEAR!!!!!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:33pm From: jojo

it is amazing how consistent irwin is with his Kenny G character

Wed. 5/6/09 1:36pm From: ?

Kenny, this is Schaap-tastic . . .

Wed. 5/6/09 1:36pm From: phillip

what the f is a dobro????

Wed. 5/6/09 1:38pm From: bb

a dobro is an accoustic guitar with a metal resonating board

Wed. 5/6/09 1:38pm From: Peter Ostroushko

You really have to ask?

Wed. 5/6/09 1:39pm From: Jaws

Schaap-tastic! Awesome, Riddler! Was thinking the same thing.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:42pm From: postmanpaul

please close up the line spacing between
Vito Acconci | Theme Song
and

Alllman Brothers | Blue Sky
it is disturbing me and it is sloppy.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:43pm From: James Joyce

Ah, Yes

Wed. 5/6/09 1:48pm From: postmanpaul

but now, everything is harmonious and i am at peace

Wed. 5/6/09 1:48pm From: Pearly Sweets

I want to go to sleep and this is pushing me closer and closer to hiding in my desk hammock.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:50pm From: annie

have another ginger cookie, with reed's ginger ice cream! and chocolate syrup!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:50pm From: Carmichael

I STILL have that Dokaka song going through my head.

Wed. 5/6/09 1:51pm From: Pearly Sweets

You just exploded my brain, Annie

Wed. 5/6/09 1:52pm From: annie

after i typed that i said to myself, holy shit i want some too!! and i only have a spoonfull of dough left!!

Wed. 5/6/09 1:56pm From: revroth

postmanpaul, I believe Kenny uses that spacing to indicate a set break, but I wasn't listening at the beginning--did he speak between those 2 songs?

Wed. 5/6/09 1:58pm From: postmanpaul

revroth - precisely, neither was i... so i am giving him the benefit of the doubt

Wed. 5/6/09 1:59pm From: texas scott

hey annie, pearly...is kenny and irwin the same person??

Wed. 5/6/09 1:59pm From: Pearly Sweets

He did speak before he started bringing the allman.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:00pm From: only the insiders know

for sure. and i'm sure they are sworn to secrecy

Wed. 5/6/09 2:03pm From: Devin

"Speak-singing"

Wed. 5/6/09 2:03pm From: Ike

I don't think Kenny G. and Irwin sound particularly alike. And they sure don't look alike. Kenny G. is much more handsome. Also, unlike Kenny, Irwin doesn't rub his junk up against anybody during the marathon. Although you can tell he wants to. He's just better at controlling himself.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:05pm From: postmanpaul

typographically speaking, thanks pearly sweets.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:05pm From: annie

i was gonna type something, but ike's comment is too damn funny..

Wed. 5/6/09 2:05pm From: texas scott

thanks,ike.

you insider,you!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:05pm From: issac

is it safe to say kenny g does LSD?

Wed. 5/6/09 2:06pm From: BSI

nothing about KG is safe.
....nothing...

Wed. 5/6/09 2:07pm From: Ike

Kenny G. *is* LSD.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:07pm From: issac

word up^

Wed. 5/6/09 2:08pm From: Carmichael

"Whispers" the German Constitution. Which is different, because Germans always yell.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:08pm From: Pearly Sweets

Kenny G is hardline straight edge. We are going to the Earth Crisis show this weekend.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:09pm From: texas scott

LSD = Lethargic Sleepy Drone

Wed. 5/6/09 2:10pm From: issac

seriously i feel like im in a LSD trip

Wed. 5/6/09 2:12pm From: postmanpaul

issac - i occasionally detect a 'nuage' of post lsd ennui, but that's kenny, fortunately.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:12pm From: issac

i just gave someone a piece of myself

Wed. 5/6/09 2:13pm From: Carmichael

I trip vicariously through Kenny.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:13pm From: Ike

If that's a fake moniker, then you're spelling "Isaac" incorrectly -- I've never seen "Issac" as a genuine alternate spelling. I recommend two "A"s and just one "S." But then, I'm in a bad mood. Who really cares anyway? NOTHING MATTERS. This world is an UNLIGHTED PIT of rusty, indigent DESPAIR!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:15pm From: annie

ike, take an apostrophe and sit in the corner..

Wed. 5/6/09 2:15pm From: BSI

rather like AIG, unlighted pits of rusty, indigent despair can SUCK IT!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:15pm From: Pearly Sweets

Hooray for the Residents!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:20pm From: issac

woah.. relax

Wed. 5/6/09 2:22pm From: Pearly Sweets

I <3 my Apology Line tape.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:22pm From: Ike

Dignity does not exist in this dark, dank world.

Hmmm. Clearly I need more chocolate.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:23pm From: Feral Cat

Jerk! You spilled my food and ruined my evening!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:25pm From: postmanpaul

issac, ike has a point there. notwithstanding the uncomfortable proximity exhisting between the 'a' and 's' key.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:26pm From: issac

freeform eh?

Wed. 5/6/09 2:27pm From: ?

Kenny is so calm now; his medication must be kicking in.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:28pm From: annie

nah, he's just getting ready to segue way to his irwin personality

Wed. 5/6/09 2:31pm From: ?

I dare not use my name in the listener comments panel anymore for fear that he hurl derision my way.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:32pm From: Feral Cat

More apology line!!!!!!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:32pm From: Pearly Sweets

I'd like to hear about cake.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:32pm From: annie

?- i was very scared for a couple of days. now i have no fear of this man we call kenny-g. notice i flail my dog/cookie/garden comments freely!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:35pm From: Carmichael

These cats know how to rock. Sounds like the Danish ZZ Top, using Sears Silvertone guitars.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:37pm From: issac

totally.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:39pm From: Pearly Sweets

Kenny just tells the good, the bad, and the ugly. He is a giant speaker box extended on top of a radio antenna telling the stories people didn’t want to be told to show the silliness inherent in most conversations. What could have been intense last week or two weeks ago might be easily seen as complete pap when taken out of context of the moment.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:39pm From: postmanpaul

kenny - thank you for letting us in today.
issac - tottaly!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:40pm From: Carmichael

Pearly, you're totally deep. Really.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:41pm From: Pearly Sweets

I guess what I am trying to say is I haven't finished that bryce song yet even though I wanted to send it to him by tomorrow.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:41pm From: annie

pearly, i dig ya and PMP- ditto

Wed. 5/6/09 2:42pm From: Carmichael

I seek sustenance. Will see you all later at Irwin's place.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:43pm From: Carmichael

And thanks Kenny, for an enlightening three hours. Really.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:44pm From: Laura L

Ditto on the More Apology Line request! Kenny, does Allen's widow have the full archive?

Wed. 5/6/09 2:47pm From: -max-

Blunderland indeed!

Wed. 5/6/09 2:49pm From: anna v.

I had no idea you liked to play MUSIC that's so PRETTY.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:51pm From: annie

taking the dog for a walk, see you in irwin-land.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:52pm From: postmanpaul

kenny, are we witnessing a realigned paradigm today? and if so, it becomes you.
you rock, kenny.

Wed. 5/6/09 2:54pm From: richard anderson

Kenny, many thanks for playing the historical whistling of my father, Colin Anderson. I am very proud of this! The record is nearly 60 years old. Please come to Cologne, where the shellack will be played at the Stadtarchiv!

Richard

Wed. 5/6/09 2:57pm From: issac

goodnight everybody

Wed. 5/6/09 2:58pm From: Feral Cat

Doopy doopy do boogaloo

Wed. 5/6/09 2:58pm From: ?

Kenny G: 0, Inanity: 1

Wed. 5/6/09 2:59pm From: -max-

The only thing being realigned is your perception. Kenny is, and that is all.

Wed. 5/6/09 3:00pm From: Pearly Sweets

Kenny G: 98 Lakers: 94

Wed. 5/6/09 3:01pm From: postmanpaul

-max- you may have something there!
