let's make rock and roll, baby. I just passed on paying $33 for Hives tickets. Did I do the right thing? | |

Hey Joe! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:24pm
KevinfromBayRidge:
Hello Joe! Happy MayDay to all | |
|
|

Joe B:
Hi Pat, J and Kevin! thanks for tuning in! |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:32pm
Joe B:
Pat, I would go. Guess you think 33 is too much. |
|

kate:
any know of plans for bare wires to come back here? | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:35pm
tim from Champaign:
Are the Golden Boys and Bare Wires Marked Men related? | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:38pm
tim from Champaign:
Also, Joe, what's the name of that cool band you've been playing from Grand Rapids, MI? | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:39pm
geokopp:
anyone heard the neil & crazy horse 'oh susannah' yet? pretty cool. on youtube. | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:39pm
Joe B:
George, I was gonna play it off youtube, they just took it down! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:40pm
Sasha:
Yeah, Unnatural Helpers! My coworker's band! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:41pm
geokopp:
What? I just watched it a few minutes ago!? | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:41pm
dc pat:
well, that's what I'm not sure about. You don't have to pay much to see great rock. I've seen the Hives and keep swearing off 9:30 (don't like it). $33 isn't that much but it's pushing it for me. | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:41pm
Joe B:
Tim, Boss Mustangs! comin' right up! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:42pm
dc pat:
not that I don't think the Hives deserve it, it's more the venue, crowd, popularity, beer prices... | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:42pm
Joe B:
kate, don't know. I really wanted to see them but their drummer got sick or hurt at SXSW and they canceled rest of their tour |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:43pm
geokopp:
Im still see it Joe:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ei2PVpSKkF4 | |

|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:43pm
Joe B:
@ Tim ... I thought Bare Wires were Bay Area but I could be wrong. marked Men guys are in about 50 different bands (including OBN IIIs, Riverboat Gamblers and more) so could be! |

Tue. 5/1/12 12:46pm
tim from Champaign:
No that clears it up, Joe. I get a little confused with all the Marked Men related bands. They're all so good and have a slight Marked Men signature in their sound. Keep on spinnin the jams! | |

lakeside lounge closed???! | |

@paula pc Thanks for the Bare Wires link. Great band, sorry that they've run their course but it sounds like Melton's next band is already in the works. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:52pm
dc pat:
jeeze no more Bare Wires, "self-induced health-related concern" | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:53pm
KevinfromBayRidge:
yeah, Bellhouse crowds have always been great when I've been there. FYI, I give a Brooklyn style Rebel Yell if I'm encumbered by a beer in hand. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:55pm
paula pc:
bare wires + lakeside lounge = april was not a good month for straighton ROCK | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:55pm
Parq:
In fairness to the crowds at shows I gotta say, I've been doing the clap-for-an-encore bit, knowing it's just a game, for four decades now and it just gets a little old. I kind of like how Mike Doughty and his cello player don't leave the stage, just turn their backs while the crowd calls them "back out". | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 12:56pm
paula pc:
@ efd - you're welcome, and I think whatever Melton does next will be great | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:03pm
dc pat:
I only clap if it's good. | |
|

Long Live Dixie Trash! Long Live Bones (RIP!) | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:14pm
Joe B:
@ Parq ... Supersuckers do the same thing, all 4 turn around, then play! well, shows I've been to last 3 years crowds have been extra lame in regards to encores, or clapping in general. |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:14pm
Mike East:
Not enough sax in rock n roll these days. Love it! | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:15pm
Joe B:
Hi Cheri! Cincy will be in the house here in a few weeks! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:15pm
dc pat:
great sound from these Jigglers. CRAP, I was just about to say the same thing Mike East. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:15pm
Cheri Pi:
I'm so excited Joe B!!! | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:16pm
Joe B:
@ DC Pat, I know what you mean ... a venue I am not fired up for can make or break seeing a show for me. For me, Hives dont come around that often anymore so I will probably go see them. |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:21pm
1mckrs:
Honky sax!! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:21pm
dc pat:
I loved the old 9:30, the smells, the rats, the unable-to-see-a-fucking-thing-who-put-this-column-heres...it was great. | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:23pm
Joe B:
Hi Mike East! glad you are digging these cats! |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:24pm
Joe B:
@ Sasha ... tell your coworker they are great! thanks for listening! |
|

|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:31pm
Joe B:
Pat, they did once. They played Jersey City last october at an outdoor festival and it poured! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:32pm
dc pat:
ha! Guess they did for this recording too. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:33pm
SHIMMY:
Pat-- i'm sure they can be brought to DC with the promise of some brews and a floor. and the floor is negotiable. | |
|

Lunch break: the Jigglers; Jonathan Richman meets the sax versus Godzilla playin' homage to Rodan, sez me, & my opinion counts, ya' know. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:38pm
dc pat:
SHIMMY: no way, they should have me up there. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:38pm
SHIMMY:
you should come up and catch them! (if you can) | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:41pm
MN Guy:
Bit late to the party, just been lurking. Been having major problems streaming radio shows on this laptop | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:45pm
PFFlyer:
MN dude, just use WinAmp and you should be OK at 128K as I do in Woodbury via Century Link. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:48pm
dc pat:
I was in a fake group once called Jack and the Rippers. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:50pm
MN Guy:
PFFlyer, that wasn't working either. Had to do a total reinstall. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:50pm
dc pat:
Thought the Monsters were saying "Baby, baby, DROP DEAD!" | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:52pm
dc pat:
jeeze this is I Need You. Is this like sampling? | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 1:54pm
PFFlyer:
@ MN, the internet & computers...the best of times, the worst of times...yet we hang on in the name of Joe Belock & WFMU....a step above what's goin' on at ol' KFA....never mind... | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:01pm
PFFlyer:
a Grant in the pocket, leftovers in the fridge...lost 2 qts of oil in the Plymouth in short order, car won't hook......glasses broke, oxy acetylene lease is up; in short, "The Good, The Bad, and the UGLY!" Life goes on with a bit o' help from the 3 Chord show. | |

this Deniz Tek is unusally fon-keh | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:12pm
MD:
BELOCK IS THE ROCK!!!! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:23pm
SHIMMY:
this new record is sounding pretty good so far... | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:24pm
Joe B:
i expected the worst! I should have known better! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:25pm
SHIMMY:
i thought they were going to be really straight readings of the original. but this is pretty great! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:25pm
geokopp:
ya gotta see the video to Neil's 'susannah' too. Wacky. On youtube. Great track though! thanks Joe! | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:26pm
Joe B:
thanks to you george! the link I had was taken down. now ... let's get some tour dates! |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:27pm

whoa, phantom tollbooth! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:28pm
geokopp:
yup! | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:28pm
SHIMMY:
seriously! i've still never seen the real crazy horse. but then again, not sure if the tickets will be less than $150 | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:30pm
Joe B:
well, if they play Jones Beach and those kind of places, scalping will be a piece of cake, under face value. |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:34pm
RC:
Just watched that Neil Young video. Never heard a banjo feedback like that before. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:35pm
SHIMMY:
OK Joe-- lay the wisdom on me! so the places outside the city "sell out" mostly to scalpers and then they're left with too many tix? what's the best place outside the city for that kind of show? (never been to jones beach) | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:37pm
KevinWho:
that's "the great John Agnello"! | |
|
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:41pm
Joe B:
yes he is great! shimmy, all those big places are easy to get into ... the Garden, PNC Bank Art Center in Jersey, Jones Beach. |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:44pm
SHIMMY:
never done the floor at the garden but I guess that's the easiest way to go. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:49pm
geokopp:
I hate PNC. Just needed to get that off my chest. | |
|
Tue. 5/1/12 2:54pm
PNC:
That's cool. I hate the customers, who I prefer to think of as the cattle. Bet you can tell, though. -- Just felt like getting that off my chest. :-) | |
