Morning! I need some wake up tunes, Meghan... Still groggy...

Thu. 9/24/09 6:03am From: Joshua K

Hmm weren't we just discussing Jeremy Enigk a few weeks ago or was that in another playlist :)

Thu. 9/24/09 6:03am From: Meghan

Morning Chuck! I just had a bug try to drink my coffee.... so now i have to run, clean cup and try that again....

Thu. 9/24/09 6:03am From: Pieter

Morning Meghan, morning all

Thu. 9/24/09 6:04am From: Meghan

hehe... morning Joshua! And yes we were!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:04am From: Meghan

Morning Pieter!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:04am From: Joshua K

I wonder what caffeine does to insects. Maybe it shortens their lifespan

Thu. 9/24/09 6:05am From: Chuck

I have a halogen floor lamp that 3 moths commited suicide in last night... Cooked bug, such a charming odor!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:06am From: Meghan

Well... considering i just made him drown in it.... i assume death!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:12am From: Joshua K

Was this a tougher theme to start with? You can't just pick related words to search for tracks like the other ones.

Thu. 9/24/09 6:13am From: Meghan

A bit... but not that bad... i had trouble with some letters... as you can see, I am doing it alphabetically....

Thu. 9/24/09 6:16am From: Chuck

This set sounds like it could be the sound track to an underground film, hehe... Siouxsie was for me, of course...

Thu. 9/24/09 6:16am From: Meghan

ohhh it would be a great soundtrack for a movie.... and of course Siouxsie was for you!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:24am From: Chuck

Thank goodness for web casting! This song would never air play otherwise...

Thu. 9/24/09 6:26am From: Meghan

The funny thing it has.... but must be web... cause the accuplaylist had it pop up

Thu. 9/24/09 6:33am From: Jeff

Hey, good morning all. Meghan, I'm sorry this didn't come to me the other night, but if you're still looking for a good "V" song how about VIctoria by the Kinks? I'm off to work... see ya!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:34am From: Meghan

I had a ton of V' names... U names is what I needed.... oh well... thanks Jeff

Thu. 9/24/09 6:35am From: Dave B in NYC (aka DBinNYC)

Morning all. Sorry I missed the pirate show, but thanks a mil for the arrrrr-chives.

Thu. 9/24/09 6:36am From: Chuck

Interesting... Sam Talerico did a whole beach music show on VKR earlier this summer...

Thu. 9/24/09 6:36am From: Meghan

hehehehe..... you were dying to use that! Oh thank god I don't have to try to talk like a pirate any more... that was hard!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:38am From: Joshua K

When I was little we had a dog my mom named Fannie

Thu. 9/24/09 6:40am From: Dave B in NYC

Any Zappa in todays show? I know there should be a few applicable tracks...

Thu. 9/24/09 6:42am From: Meghan

you just missed it Dave! it was back as the letter D!

Thu. 9/24/09 6:45am From: Dave B

aww man. Coffee is just kicking in.

Thu. 9/24/09 6:59am From: Barry

Thu. 9/24/09 7:00am From: Meghan

Hello Barry! Yes, they all had me giggling a lot!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:01am From: Chuck

Pete is going to be doing show at Vassar soon... Amazing that he still performs at 92...

Thu. 9/24/09 7:02am From: Dirty Old Man

If this is still a "work in progress", how about I Hate Sara - Eddie from Ohio. I can't believe I forgot this one!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:02am From: Joshua K

"Folk Songs for Young People" the ones who enjoy songs about drowning yourself in a river

Thu. 9/24/09 7:03am From: Meghan

I saw him in Beacon at that library/gallery. He plays for all of 5 minutes... gets rather winded. He has a lot of people to back him up. What a staple up there though huh?

Thu. 9/24/09 7:05am From: Chuck

Yup, he was interveiwed/sang on VKR a couple weeks back... I saw him and Arlo at a show way back in 83... He was in better shape then..

Thu. 9/24/09 7:06am From: Ken From Hyde Park

What the? No "Beth" from KISS? Maybe next year.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:08am From: jonathan

balls, missed Goodnight Irene - the song of choice for fans of Bristol Rovers FC. great show!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:13am From: karen s.

Megthan,
I thought we women stick together....I can't believe you took A's dare.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:16am From: Meghan

I had to! You have to call him out on his stupidity! So I figured if it gets aired, he may think twice.....

Thu. 9/24/09 7:16am From: Joshua K

There is that Make-Up DVD "Blue Is Beautiful" But I don't know if that track is available outside of that.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:18am From: Chuck

Ah, The Orbison... He is missed...

Thu. 9/24/09 7:18am From: Joshua K

Actually Blue is Beautiful is on the album "I Want Some"

Thu. 9/24/09 7:19am From: Meghan

Cool... I have lots of Make-Up... so if I have it, it will be played!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:29am From: Chuck

Nice job mixing genders of music, Meg! You selected songs that don't make jarring transitions in style... I hate rattling changes...

Thu. 9/24/09 7:30am From: jonathan

genders, lol.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:30am From: Meghan

Thanks.... it's kinda funny to see them mix like that... but i made an conscience effort to make sure the flow wasn't too erratic

Thu. 9/24/09 7:33am From: Chuck

I meant "genders" with the French pronounciation and connotation, Jonathan...

Thu. 9/24/09 7:42am From: rick

Hi, Meghan, I loved your doctor show two weeks ago, but alas missed your pirate show. I will try to hear it on archive. A friend of mine loved the Adam Ant Jolly Roger song. Belle & Sebastian are always good for some women name songs, for example: String Bean Jean or Lazy Line Painter Jane.

Keep up the theme approach and great music!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:44am From: Meghan

Awww thanks Rick! Will do!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:45am From: Chuck

So when does the final word come down for fall and possible extension of your show? The 30th?

Thu. 9/24/09 7:48am From: Meghan

Next week supposedly.... I think applications are due by Saturday... so we shall see! Fingers crossed!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:52am From: Parq

Okay, this Elvis song is jaw-dropping-open.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:53am From: Meghan

Good Morning Parq!

Thu. 9/24/09 7:55am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Keep the faith. How can they resist the appeal of your show? I buried a statue of St. Joseph outside the station just to seal the deal. So, either your show gets renewed or someone will buy the building. I don't mess around.

Thu. 9/24/09 7:56am From: Meghan

ha! Thanks Dum Dum and good morning to you!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:09am From: jeff p

i'm in!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:10am From: meghan

Jeff P! Finally!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:12am From: Parq

Ah, so you did find a U song.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:13am From: Meghan

Yup! Took a LOT of looking! Damn U names....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:14am From: Chuck

Had to happen... Just can't pass on a Pixies song, can you, Meg...

Thu. 9/24/09 8:14am From: jeff p

yeah the end of tha alphabet is a tough one
heh. hte pixies. BIG surprise there :-)

Thu. 9/24/09 8:15am From: Meghan

hehehe... nope! Be thankful i omitted all the Nick Cave... I could have drowned you all with him!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:16am From: Chuck

Is this from the LP I lent you way back? Or did you go ahead and get the CD?

Thu. 9/24/09 8:17am From: Meghan

oh I have had Bossanova for a LONG time. It was Trompe le Monde I didn't have.... that was the one you lent me

Thu. 9/24/09 8:18am From: Chuck

Oh yeah! I've passed so much music around over the years I don't remember who got what, hehe...

Thu. 9/24/09 8:19am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

I don't care if they were a TV band, The Monkees were one of the GREAT bands of the 1960s. There, I said it.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:19am From: messica

more bands need to use tamborines!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:20am From: jeff p

ugh. and i have to leave for a meeting in 10 minutes....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:24am From: Andy in Berlin

Hi Meghan,

I guess you could do a million of this theme! How about "Andrea" by the Sunrays (the pseudo-Beach Boys)? Oops! I just realized you were going in alphabetic order. Well, 999,999 more tries!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:24am From: Chuck

Groovy, baby! Email me your specifics!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:24am From: john jr peel

how about
bleach - wipe it away, old shoegazing english band, one of their best tracks

Thu. 9/24/09 8:24am From: Meghan

Jeff you need to stop scheduling meetings on Thursdays!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:25am From: jeff p

there's food, at least.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:26am From: Meghan

ohhhh i Love Bleach! I saw them live in Chicago.... opening for Kitchens of Distinction.... Just not a woman's name....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:28am From: Meghan

Chuck just getting the specifics together... I will give you a call... thinking of staying up there.....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:28am From: Chuck

Not to be knit-picky... Check your playlist after the show for errors... There are a couple...

Thu. 9/24/09 8:29am From: Meghan

There are? I will look over it later....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:30am From: john jr peel

oh, sorry. i didnt realise it had to be a womans name. ok. nice concept. wow im temporarily stuck. doesnt nick cave have a track with a womans name beginning with w. oh zappas willie the pimp;)

Thu. 9/24/09 8:30am From: Chuck

End of set 3, song and artist are inverted and you missed the "d" in Concrete Blonde...

Thu. 9/24/09 8:32am From: Meghan

ahhh thanks Chuck! And John Jr Peel.... I am a Nick Cave FIEND.... so I figure I would give them all a break... could have had an entire show of him.... hehe But you have GREAT taste in music!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:34am From: Chuck

Everybody Samba!!!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:34am From: Andy in Berlin

Now I'm disappointed! I thought Concrete Blone was a great name!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:35am From: meghan

hehe..... well now you have a new band name Andy! And great seeing you again here! You were always my middle of the night friend!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:35am From: John jr peel

cher what else would you be doing;). If you romanticize about BERLIN then check out this short film below - 13minutes of beautiful hilarity from the berlin Underground.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:37am From: Andy in Berlin

that's because it's middle of the afternoon here

Thu. 9/24/09 8:40am From: Parq

On whim, I Google-imaged "blone" and discovered that a lot of other people can't spell "blonde" either.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:42am From: Meghan

it's the excitement of the letter E.... you just bypass that D! or skim by it, not fully pressing it....

Thu. 9/24/09 8:46am From: Parq

God, I never noticed before what a terrible harmonica solo that is on the Lennon track.

Thu. 9/24/09 8:49am From: Avant Reguard

E is one of those special letters that is all consuming along with
H, K, P, T and X

Thu. 9/24/09 8:57am From: Parq

Brava! All 26 letters covered. Mission Accomplished!

Thu. 9/24/09 8:59am From: Meghan

Phew! did it! thanks everyone!

Sat. 9/26/09 9:47pm From: Ben

Hm. Blue. Got a few ideas
Tom Waits--Blue Valentine
Prince--Computer Blue
Madness--Blue Skinned Beast
Eurythmics--Aqua
Johnny Mathis or Blossom Dearie--When Sunny Gets Blue
