Thu. 10/1/09 12:14pm From: doug in DC

In the way that that is the way that is the way it is, in that it is that way.

Thu. 10/1/09 12:14pm From: BSI

It is what it is........ or is it?

Thu. 10/1/09 12:19pm From: Ike

“I can't tell when you're telling me the truth about ten-sided pancakes and slippery aardvark fetuses."

- I'm not.

"How do I know anything you've told me about gift-wrapped highway construction equipment is..."

- You don't.

Thu. 10/1/09 12:23pm From: The Fonz

10 sided pancakes!......Aaaaaaaa ( gives thumbs up)

Thu. 10/1/09 12:33pm From: Answer-Man

All that is is, all that is not is not. Is that it? It is.

Thu. 10/1/09 12:44pm From: The Kenosha Kid

I never did.

Thu. 10/1/09 12:54pm From: erik r.

who is this ? whoever it is, sounds like they've been listening to the first This Heat album an awful lot...

Thu. 10/1/09 12:56pm From: Cecile

LOL this mattress track doesn't know TV's Big Bang Theory's "rock paper scissors lizard Spock"

Thu. 10/1/09 12:56pm From: Scott

Hey Erik, agreed! It's the great French band Aluk Todolo, and they're in town tonight opening the first ever WFMU Fest! Faust (!!) headlines tonight

Thu. 10/1/09 1:00pm From: jenny

scott, do you know if Aluk Todolo is heading anywhere else while they're in the states? they're really kinda amazing..

Thu. 10/1/09 1:00pm From: erik r.

oh how i wish i could go! missed Faust here in Philly the other night as i was BOTH sick with a cold and had to screenprint CD covers...

Thu. 10/1/09 1:03pm From: Scott

Hey Jenny, not sure - check their myspace: http://www.myspace.com/aluktodolo
Anyone catch the Faust workshop in Phila on Monday?? Reports please!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:05pm From: erik r.

2 friends of mine went- said it was fun but not necessarily mind-blowing... everyone jammed on "So Far"

Thu. 10/1/09 1:07pm From: Scott

Cool - my brother in law went, haven't heard his take yet. I was afraid it was gonna be all ppl bringing a drum and banging out "It's a Rainy Day..."

Thu. 10/1/09 1:15pm From: jenny

thanks scott. just what i thought, boston: 0, New York: 5! why do i live here again?

Thu. 10/1/09 1:15pm From: erik r.

ivor cutler! man this show is hitting me just right today! been listening to "priviledge" a lot lately....
ok i should go print now...

Thu. 10/1/09 1:17pm From: steve

i did. it was great!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:21pm From: steve

there were three exercises, the first was designed for 60 people to flail about with making noise. The second was to "disorient" yourself and the third was a factory line type jam on So Far inspired by a sardine packing plant.

Thu. 10/1/09 1:21pm From: raga

w00ps!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:23pm From: BSI

NICK THE FRIKKIN' BARD!!!!!!!!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:24pm From: Ike

Ah, the return of Billy Jam tomorrow morning! Nice!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:29pm From: Cecile

I must concur with you, Ike. Huzzah!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:30pm From: BSI

Marvelous pain montage, this.
Any DC-area folks remember BAD EGO? They did a similar track representing pres.Reagan being violently ill at 3 in the morning.
...ah, memories...

Thu. 10/1/09 1:34pm From: Marshall Stacks

Brilliant juxtaposition, Scott.

Thu. 10/1/09 1:36pm From: Chris

The only time I'v eever been glad to get a Shemp episode.

Thu. 10/1/09 1:36pm From: Scott

Thanks BSI and Marshall Stacks!

Thu. 10/1/09 1:52pm From: Gregory

Thanks for playing some stuff from the Big Star box

Thu. 10/1/09 1:57pm From: Lysergic Poutine

YESSS! "Feel the Pain of My Misfortune"!!! Thanks so much, Scott!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:00pm From: dc pat

Ah, FREAK! I missed Shemp!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:11pm From: Looms

Thanks for playing late A. Borland!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:16pm From: Moe

Oh, a wise guy, eh?

Thu. 10/1/09 2:24pm From: doron

ha. turns out old marty was right about those eff buttons.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:25pm From: Scott

Exactly what I was thinking, Doron. For the rest of you, how I hated this band when I saw them at ATP last year! And the name... oh, the pain of a name!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:25pm From: Scott

tho Doron, lemme know what you think when I take the Shemp away

Thu. 10/1/09 2:27pm From: doron

i'm not sure which part the shemp is but... it's definitely a case of more is more.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:29pm From: dc pat

aaaaahhh, beautiful Shemp....

Thu. 10/1/09 2:32pm From: GP

Ha..this is cracking me up...Ol Shemp still has it after all these years.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:33pm From: dc pat

he's a master..

Thu. 10/1/09 2:33pm From: Ashok

With Shemp rules! That was wonderful!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:34pm From: dc pat

wow, this is the only song recorded by Beck I've liked so far.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:36pm From: Ike

DC Pat, really? I thought Beck was fantastic at the Loews in Jersey City a few years ago, and for me, "Sea Change" and "Odelay" are classic albums.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:37pm From: esch oder anarchie!

I agree with dc pat. Ironic that in Beck's case the "man" he's waiting for is L-Ron.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:38pm From: GP

It is the Thetan influence DC Pat, He refuses to get "clear", hence this track.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:39pm From: BSI

wow. this....

Thu. 10/1/09 2:40pm From: dc pat

I dunno, I just chalk Beck up to "I don't get it". Everybody I know likes him but I don't.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:43pm From: Ike

Ha ha ha GP! Anyway, FMU plays a fair bit of Charles Manson, weirdo cults who make good music, etc., so I don't sweat the hilarious volcano-alien-soul-incineration-space-overlord cult that Beck was born into.

And wow, that Pumice was awesome.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:44pm From: BSI

yeh. what ike said. re: pumice.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:45pm From: maria

yo la tengo- this song is heavvvvvy! awesome. who does it remind you of? I can't quite put my finger on it

Thu. 10/1/09 2:46pm From: Scott

Yeah, what Ike said re: Pumice!

Thu. 10/1/09 2:47pm From: GP

Agreed Maria....Funky hippie freakfestivus sounds....that I like a lot.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:53pm From: C

hey, m. that was my favorite song from the ylt show down in dc. even without the strings it has an awesome power to it.

reminds me of lambchop, kind of. at leas, i can imagine kurt really tearing it apart from his stool.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:55pm From: esch oder anarchie!

Agree on all sides except: pumice is rock, and pumice is rough, but pumice is not heavy. It's the frakkin Three Musketeers bar of igneous rocks.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:56pm From: Ike

Any idea how late Faust will be going tonight? Lately I've been turning into a pumpkin earlier than usual. Must be something in the water. Or the pumpkin juice.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:56pm From: dc pat

the YLT reminds me of Portishead

Thu. 10/1/09 2:56pm From: Hugo

Funny to think that the youngest member of Faust was born after Faust IV was made. Anyhow, enjoy Faust in Williamsburg, for those within easy reach. I saw them in Bergen back in March.

Somebody talking in Swedish on that track!?

Thu. 10/1/09 2:57pm From: Scott

Pretty late Ike, I think they're starting somewhere around 11

Thu. 10/1/09 2:57pm From: a guy in a chair in a cube

The strings on that YLT song remind me of the string on Serge Gainsborgs - Histoire de Melody Nelson.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:58pm From: dc pat

you. just. can't. go. wrong. with Shemp.

Thu. 10/1/09 2:59pm From: Ike

Thanks Scott -- ouch -- if I go, then I'll be falling asleep standing up by the end. I'll be easy pickings for the vultures which fly over Willysburg and eat the slow-moving hipsters.
