Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

YES!! Listen The Snow Is Falling! Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the B-side to Happy Xmas (War Is Over)? Go Yoko! | |

today is Take Your Daughter to Work Day. I'm telecommuting today so I'm making her sit next to me at the dinner table for 8 hours. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:12pm
BSI:
feh. I'm waiting for take-your-bigass-dog-to-work day. THAT would be a blast. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:12pm
dc pat:
nothing. That's the problem with this comment board--you can't tell if people are spitting out their coffee because of your hilarious joke YEAH! USGirls doing Kinks. Love this. | |

Matt from Springfield:
@dc pat: Is WFMU exposure part of the 8-hour workday? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:14pm
Matt from Springfield:
@BSI: What breed of dog? St Bernard huge? @dc pat: Really, that was a Kinks song? Incredible! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:16pm
dc pat:

BSI:
I thought i heard a wee little voice a few offices over. Had no idea this kind of insidious revolution was brewing. Matt: he's a boxer. Bigger than many, over 80lbs, so he's not huge. But he has mighty presence, if you dig. Would go over well in an office setting... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:19pm
Matt from Springfield:
My supervisor has two boxers, one kind of skittish (male) and the other (female) trying to be the Alpha of the whole house! Yeah, they sure can bark! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:20pm
dc pat:
Alright, nobody's freakin here--I'm leaving. Have a Happy Gew Year everybloody. | |

|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:30pm
Matt from Springfield:
Thanks Brian! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:30pm
BSI:
yeh, some boxers are very talkative. Mine, thankfully, is the strong-silent type. But has a face like an oak tree dipped in cold rubber snot. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:30pm
BT:
whoop, thx Cheri... | |

Dead Corporate Eyes:
whiskey's getting the better of David | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:44pm
rodneydp:
Whisky David kind of sounds like Alex Harvey but "boozier." Great stuff! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:45pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
at first I thought he sounded like a very drunk and very angry John Lennon | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:49pm
Matt from Springfield:
Awesome Musi-O-Tunya--which ethnicity would you call this music? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 3:51pm
Matt from Springfield:
Then I guess I'm on a mid-late 70s Zambian psych-funk kick, then! Brian, your mike keeps fading in and out on the stream. | |
|

|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:06pm

donkeydong:
what's that whisky david from? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:09pm
Matt from Springfield:
Wow, Hekaloth! Been a while since you pulled that out! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:20pm
BT:
Mic still fading in and out? (probably for the best) | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:21pm
lu:
stop looking at me! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:22pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
shoo boop be doo, shoo boop be doo...this is like a street fight from West Side Story... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:25pm
Matt from Springfield:
Thanks for enlightening us with a non-"Rock On" David Essex song. And I love "Step Into The Grid"! I'd suggested that as a theme to this show. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:28pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:
now that's rock! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:31pm

interesting loverboy fact - paul dean was one of the founders of xray spex | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:32pm
Matt from Springfield:
@DCE @BSI: Now this is the kind of 80s rock you try to repress at night! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:33pm
BSI:
oh I repress ALL KINDS OF THINGS, all right.... but, um.... I really must hear these fellows tackle that Aldo Nova hit from '81 or so... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:34pm
glenn:
i think aldo nova's canadian too..... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:36pm
Matt from Springfield:
@BSI: "Fantasy", I'll have to look into that...There's a bunch of '81 singles I'd like to hear LORS tackle, particular the Eurovision trash from that time (Bucks Fizz, Dollar, Brotherhood of Man, etc) | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:37pm
BSI:
Hell, everybody should do "fantasy" ... Big Blood would do it justice... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:41pm
Matt from Springfield:
Hey glenn! We got sidetracked last week, but when you said you were a carpenter--are you the commenter who once said he taped WFMU off the radio and played it on construction sites, only to get hostility from the other guys? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:44pm
Cecile:
That David Essex album is all kinds of good. I loved it when I lived in OZ way back when. I need to get a copy of it. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:44pm
BSI:
my apologies. With the concept of Legion of Rock Stars now sussed, it be fully, inescapably awesome. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:46pm
glenn:
not me. the cbc pisses people off enough. but since it's my job site, they can pucker up. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:47pm
seang:
eno baby | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:48pm
Matt from Springfield:
@glenn: HELL YEAH! CBC 3 is pretty good--is that the one you like? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:51pm
glenn:
yep. and cbc 1. i'm also a bit of a politics junkie. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:56pm
Matt from Springfield:
It's tough, but with the archives I can convert family and friends over, by one particular song at a time. And it's not your fault if people don't want to concern themselves with potential Liberal-NDP swing ridings! | |

Blue Moon Seattle:
Could you please play side one of INXS Kick? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:57pm
glenn:
um...... matt, are you from canada? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 4:59pm
Matt from Springfield:
No, but I was once in Canada in-utero. :) I follow any number of things and file them away for future culture references! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:00pm
glenn:
there's a guy from san francisco named doug hilsinger who's remade taking tiger mountain. he plays all the instruments himself. it's really very good. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:01pm
BT:
Yeah, Glenn, forgot about that but great record... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:02pm
CheriPi:
I love it angry & French. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:02pm
Matt from Springfield:
@glenn: I'm liking that older pre-ambient Eno, did Doug record a faithful cover or his own take on the album? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:05pm
Cecile:
robo-disco! | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:07pm
glenn:
he redos it track for track. it's hmmmm., i guess i'd say faithful to the original without being a direct copy, if that makes sense. | |

Tue. 12/28/10 5:17pm
Cecile:
glenn - yeah. Like those Kelly Stoltz Bunnymen tributes. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:19pm
glenn:
i don't know those. is it wrong of me to admit how much i love echo and the bunnymen, pretension and all? | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:20pm
Cecile:
They are great, and I love them too. Saw them live twice back in the day. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:22pm
Cecile:
Clarification - the Stoltz CDs are great and so are Echo and the Bunnymen. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:22pm
BT:

|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:23pm
Richard:
What a great find!!. Terrific song of Gog. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:23pm
BT:
The day Kelley was here with Spiral Stairs we had a total threesome nerd-off over the Bunnymen.... | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:25pm
glenn:
i think i saw them 4 times. also back in the day. i remember billy bragg opened for them, when he had just released his first e.p. frankly, i thought he sucked. except... maybe it was siouxsie and the banshees he opened for. hmmm. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:25pm
Richard:
New Earth record in 2011. Waiting to hear that. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:26pm
Cecile:
I saw them with Billy Bragg, too, but he was really good that night. It was '84 in Detroit. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:27pm
Chris from DC:
Wow Gog is my copilot. | |
|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:27pm
glenn:

|
Tue. 12/28/10 5:29pm
