Try to hide your Viagra better next time you take a week off and travel to Central America...

Wed. 5/13/09 12:12pm From: BSI

Ken, you're gonna need one muther of an herbal cleanse when this is done.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:14pm From: Andy

You're going to tell me what this is all about? As an immigrant I resist giving birth to Ken. I do not give birth to Kenny. I give birth to Buck. I give birth to mini-Buck, who is prototypically NOT HERE. He's in Baltimore.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:15pm From: Peanut Gallery

I am loving this. Thank you!

Wed. 5/13/09 12:15pm From: Ken

We are doing show. about birth. about space. a call in show.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:16pm From: Obama's TelepromptR

Oooooh, you're being so mean to Rushiepoo. He says the same thing every day since November, so it'd be hard to tell this reading from his actual *current* show on some other channel and band...

Wed. 5/13/09 12:17pm From: J-Mar

I just noticed that the playlist says "Chanel" instead of "Channel" -- do you think that's a typo? Or is this all some kind of fashion statement?

Wed. 5/13/09 12:17pm From: Andy

This is a call-in show. About bent text. All over the place. Don't hurt me. I am a member of the American left, unlike you, Ken. Ken...you have a reputation to uphold, I understand that.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:18pm From: BSI

...come to think of it, I'M gonna need the herbal cleans when this is done.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:18pm From: Ken

What am I, chopped liver? Get off my phone, you lowlife.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:29pm From: Andy

So: Let's get this straight. Buck's feelings have been hurt. Nick hates us and thinks Art is Dumb; Andrea sends her apologies. As call-in radio, Ken, this sucks. I need someone to talk to with whom I can discuss bent text.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:33pm From: Ken

space. is not longer a material. we have free the space of the body and its form. invisible space, the space of the mind to emotion. the totality of being. but to bushwach that. we need a new type of knife.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:33pm From: Andy

To free the body from its form is definition of vibration. This is music. How do you slice a dark space, Ken?

It's essentially bending the function: this is what it means to bend text. Says Buck. Remove the clues. Bend text. In Baltimore. We recently did Ricahrd #rd by Shakespeare. We put him the appple garden. We used a more Nietchean interpretation; that he was a member of the Far Right. That he had different values. He was not evil. Other people thoguht he was evil. This is interpretation. We are using the text slightly differently. I like cutting Shakespeare. Sez BUCK

Wed. 5/13/09 12:57pm From: Ken

The proposition, and precisely it, must itself be based on its
foundation. It must be a basic principle -- the basic principle
absolutely. One must therefore find such a principle of all positing,
i.e., a proposition in which that about which it says something, the
subjectum, is not just taken from somewhere else.

"There would be violence if we let her into the country."
The home secretary was DOUGLAS HURD.
He came to Haberdasher's Aske's School for Girls.
Buck called in and we interviewed him in the comment stream. Ken says it doesn't make any sense. Ken, don't be a rifle butt. Don't be a cricket.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:58pm From: Ken

Andy. I will fight to the death your right to say it, but not cricket. tomorrow it is someone else.

Wed. 5/13/09 12:59pm From: Andy

You call in and we will document you in this comment stream. Because we, Ken and Andy, have become bored of radio. The fact that we can't type doesn't help. We want this radio. Side radio. What kind of space is th

This is cell function. I should mention that I am very beautiful. For a man. Also, I saw Iranian Knights at the Royal Court. We spilled out. It was theater in honor of Rushdie. Written by Tariq Ali. There is an eco-broadcast going on. I hate it. I hate myself. I hate myself for not being more of a radio lover. I find radio calming, which is not natural. Ken, are we banned from England yet, do you think?

Dedicated to allowing any horse's ass with an internet connection to mock and ridicule the accomplishments of others. Musicians, politicians, whoever; if they do something, make fun of them for it. Being informative or even entertaining is discouraged; just say things suck while never actually doing something yourself. Take that, people who do stuff!

Great idea for a site. Do you have funding?

Wed. 5/13/09 2:17pm From: doug from dc

I have a friend who would live on a site like that. But sometimes he ahs a point. Cage is voicing that sort of argument: "He's just a name." But is this fair?

We'll be 100 times bigger than twitter. Die, facebook trash.

oh gross, a utilitarian argument for musical value.

I try to avoid climaxes, too. Till the director gives me the high five.

John: I'll take all yer sustained climaxes, thanks.

And now my employer's algorithm will actually buy that address and fill it with stupid ads. Sigh. Where are the classifieds?

Wed. 5/13/09 2:27pm From: dc pat

well I like cage but I'll take Branca over him any day.

All things contain dukkha. Certainly listening to this does.

nice.

@Ike: thereby fulfilling the promise of the domain name.

Wed. 5/13/09 2:31pm From: Ike

Hmm. Good point.

Wed. 5/13/09 2:35pm From: dc pat

now THAT's a climax

Wed. 5/13/09 2:35pm From: Don't worry I'll wipe out all those timesuck sites

justdontfriendmeperiod.com, a social networking site where the point is to have as few people as possible be your eletronic fake friend. Everyone starts with zero, but the coolest members don't even join. Until, of course, so many people have not joined that they all feel mainstream, and join just to avoid that label, thus creating a quantum-mechanics logical contradiction that destroys the internet, and incidentally the cosmos.

You're welcome.

I like this Branca piece. I'd be interested to hear the one ("Indeterminate Activity of Resultant Masses") that Cage so disliked.

I remember literally sprinting from the 3rd row of the Brooklyn Academy
of Music Hall after being physically assaulted by the indescribably loud Glenn Branca Symphony #? My rib cage was vibrating and I thought it would be hazardous to my health to remain in the audience.

Wed. 5/13/09 2:37pm From: Marshall Stacks

This is Easy Listening by comparison.

Or maybe I just have the volume set low.

Wed. 5/13/09 2:37pm From: Sodium Pentathol Cage

I'm really very competitive. Duh. That's really all that rant was about O:-)

Wed. 5/13/09 2:39pm From: jan

Yeah, "spectacular commodity" is very nice- I turned up the stereo for that>

Wed. 5/13/09 2:39pm From: bb

branca on record is almost unrelated to actually seeing a piece played.

does anyone know anything about Stephen Wischerth. hes the percussionist on this piece and a few of the symphonies..but i dont know his story

Wed. 5/13/09 2:47pm From: doug from dc

But what about Cecil Taylor? No one else can play Cecil Taylor but Taylor himself. Yet his work in my opinion has the highest musical value. So what is the value of Cage's modernism-meets-the-Buddha criticism? Give me individual expression any day.

And now who will support them?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Too bad God didn't listen to his prayer before he was able to record the song, "the deal." How is it some of us labor all our lives in obscurity and this guy gets a recording contract with one prayer.

Wow, that guy will be disappointed when he discovers that he actually sold his soul to Ray Wise to save his wife and kid.
