Happy B-day, Toni D.!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:07pm From: CB1

Evenin' Mo!

Great beats!!!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:13pm From: Erik

I think its actually Namtchylak but whatever... great track

Sun. 7/12/09 7:14pm From: Jeff M

Mo,

You give me fever.

Please don't tell my fiancee.

-Jeff

Sun. 7/12/09 7:15pm From: Paul

I LOVE THIS VERSION OF FEVER. COOL, baby..

Sun. 7/12/09 7:18pm From: G

Nice tuneage for me to keep from being annoyed while working online. :-) Another saudade-filled song about brasilian carnaval...

Spotted the FMU brigade seated under a tent at the Burmese Water Festival on the Lower East Side this afternoon. Bryce's hairdo is hard to mistake. Was with companions or I'd have considered poking them in person...

Sun. 7/12/09 7:20pm From: texas scott

hello,monica and fellow fans,
hey G...was pseu in the mix?

Sun. 7/12/09 7:26pm From: G

I'm more an ear person than an eye person, so I am not an expert on appearances of radio hosts. Bryce is just visually distinctive at this point. It was definitely not a stag group, though...

Sun. 7/12/09 7:29pm From: monica

how-dee to Jeff M. (don't be gettin' me in trubs!), G (did Bryce leave a good tip?), Paul (me too! just heard it today!), Texas Scott in da house!, Dean happy bday to yer fren), CB1 (mon plaisir), Erik (it's Namtchylak, I mispelled it too!)... OK, who's buyin' tonight?

Sun. 7/12/09 7:32pm From: texas scott

next round on me.
barkeep...set'um up.

Sun. 7/12/09 7:33pm From: G

The Burmese Water Festival was one of those "buy strings of tickets for a dollar apiece and redeem them at food vendors" events. If Bryce is normally an excellent tipper, he'd have been frustrated at his lack of opportunity. Definitely a carry-around-with-you event rather than a table-service event.

The music and dancing (with hand gestures) was worth the trip...

Sun. 7/12/09 7:38pm From: Maggie in Rock Tavern

Hey Monica! You so rule the Sunday evening airwaves.

Sun. 7/12/09 7:40pm From: Paul

You never cease to amaze....!!!!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:40pm From: Bruce

Well, here's something for the DJ tip jar...
Stop me if you've heard it before...

Sun. 7/12/09 7:42pm From: texas scott

oh,i do love me some Gershwin!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:44pm From: Jeff M

We've been tasting potential wedding-related champagnes, so the drinks here in our house have been on... oh, I don't even remember anymore. Whee!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:47pm From: texas scott

i want this...

Sun. 7/12/09 7:50pm From: G

Bid $.72 then, Scott :-P

Sun. 7/12/09 7:53pm From: monica

Hey Bruce, thanks so much! Texas Scott, you bake that? Jeff M, we'd all be happy to help you discern the bestest vintage for the ahppy nuptials, Thank ye Maggie & Paul!!

Sun. 7/12/09 7:54pm From: molerat

Be careful. It came from hunted hose.

Enjoying the show, as always.

Sun. 7/12/09 7:55pm From: Gary Martin

Monica..this turn back ...is it from an off broadway show as it sounds? which one? I love it on the premium.
Best ...listener gary

Sun. 7/12/09 7:55pm From: texas scott

HA!
you guys crack me up.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:01pm From: boogie dwn brnx

oh my gosh! i remember this cartoon.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:03pm From: G

Sonia Manzano was I believe the person who first sang the song "Turn Back O Man" in the original version of Godspell, though I'm not sure if she was in the New York or the London show, in the early 70s. The internet knows. My grandparents took me to the London version when I was a wee thing.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:08pm From: Parq

Just tuned in and wondered if this was you -- and it is! My kiddo was 4 when "Lion King" first hit the screen, so I've been through the theatrical release, the VHS cassette release, the movie soundtrack (on cassette), the BWay OC album (CD) and the deluxe two-disc DVD release. I sometimes feel that I ought to set a place for Nate Lane and Ernie Sabella at dinner.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:09pm From: Parq

Speaking of dinner, I'm heading back into the kitchen, and I'd better not hear Miss Monica report that you guys are giving her trouble. Remember, there's ice cream at stake.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:11pm From: wikipedia

Sonia Manzano (born December 6, 1950) is an American actress and writer. She is best known for playing Maria on Sesame Street since 1971.... Manzano was born in the South Bronx... of Puerto Rican descent, and attended the High School of Performing Arts.... Manzano attended the Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh on a scholarship. In her junior year, she came to New York to star in the original production of the off-Broadway show "Godspell". Manzano joined the production of Sesame Street in 1973, where she eventually began writing scripts for the series. Sonia has won 15 Emmy Awards as part of the Sesame Street writing staff.... She resides in the Upper West Side with her husband and daughter....

Sun. 7/12/09 8:12pm From: texas scott

and now the incredible ,,,Misty Morgan!

Sun. 7/12/09 8:14pm From: Gary Martin

Wow!! Wikipedia is listening to the show? Does that make you nervous, Monica?]
Listener Gary

Sun. 7/12/09 8:15pm From: Jeff M

Ann Magnuson rules. And she's Ken's friend on the 'book. (My head is too full of bubbles to figure out if she's yours, as well.)

I loved the "Men's Choir" song. But which particular Men's Choir, again? I've been hearing some fun stuff recently fron the Seattle Men's Chorus (and their subset[?], Captain Smartypants).

Also: yay, bubbles. They make me festive.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:15pm From: CB1

JANICE!

Sun. 7/12/09 8:15pm From: wikipedia

Jes' helpin' out's all.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:17pm From: CB1

Take two: JANIS!

Sun. 7/12/09 8:19pm From: texas scott

Sun. 7/12/09 8:32pm From: molerat

Yay! A shout-out. I think...

Sun. 7/12/09 8:34pm From: texas scott

tonite's show has been very enjoyable.thank you.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:42pm From: Jeff M

Oh, for those interested in the bubbly (tasted blind):

Perrier Jouet Grand Brut (a long personal favorite, which I expected to come in first): kind of malty, almost beer-like, complex and interesting but maybe a distraction from a time of festivity: 2nd

Pol Roger, another reliable go-to Champagne: nice, held together well, but on the verge of being cloyingly sweet: 3rd.

Nicholas Feuillatte, which we'd enjoyed the once we'd had it by itself: kind of dirty and incoherent. 4th.

Piper Sonoma Brut, a California wannabe we snuck in to see if we could get away with something at 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the others: A little sour, not particularly complex or coherent -- I continue to consider it an excellent Mimosa bubbly. 5th

Louis Roederer Brut Premier: Yummy. Subtly complex, notes of vanilla, perhaps backed by a bit of pear. A coherent (even though complex) oneness of flavor, and all with a lighter overall aesthetic which is consistent with being enjoyable in its own right, but not necessarily distracting from a festive occasion. Never had it before, just grabbed a bottle based on some in-store blurbs (and, yeah, these guys do make Cristal).. Delightful. 1st.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:45pm From: Paul

Really excellent show tonight - had to write down lots of names.
Thanks.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:47pm From: Bruce

Gonna get me some of that dirty and incoherent bubbly

Sun. 7/12/09 8:48pm From: Jeff M

About Buckets of Rain:

a) Dave Van Ronk's name alway reminds me of those Alligator Records catalogs I never paid enough attention to.

b) Have you ever heard the version by Redbird?

Sun. 7/12/09 8:50pm From: G

Jeff, it's good to see someone is willing to tough it out in the interests of scientific knowledge.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:53pm From: Jeff M

That's me. Always spewing in the troughs of The Scientific Method.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:54pm From: texas scott

want knowledge,G?
just wait'll the next show...

Sun. 7/12/09 8:57pm From: monica

Sun. 7/12/09 8:58pm From: texas scott

hugs and kisses,dj.

Sun. 7/12/09 8:59pm From: Jeff M

Now I'm trying to remember whether Top Cat exited stage left or right.

Sun. 7/12/09 9:30pm From: mike tp
