Tony! I was confused by the GTDS schedule and thought you were off this week. Doug, your last e-mail to me was the 12th. Are you still sending regular missives? | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:07pm
Carmichael:
Annie! Holy cow, how have you been? | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:08pm
Doug S.:
I felt the need to prove my meddle. I needed to put the pedal to the meddle. Please pin a meddle on my chest. As alchemist-in-chief for the stream, I wanted to practice a little meddleurgy. OK, I'll stop. | |

Doug S.:
@Carmichael Nope, I've been sending out emails pretty much every work day. I sent a newsletter on 9/12. But I send email blasts about upcoming shows usually with 30 minutes of the beginning of each show. I sent one on 9/13 for Amanda's fill in; on 9/14 for Charlie Lewis; and on 9/15 for my show. Did you NOT get these? Maybe check your spam filter? @Annie! | |

........and i'm forever hatching plans for the rough times.. it's how i roll | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:17pm
Carmichael:
I'll check, Doug, but I'm sure I haven't received anything after the 12th. Annie, what slavish environment would not allow you to listen to music?? I'm doing the same thing in the same place, year after year. Eventually I will attempt to leap off the treadmill and into the great unknown. | |

i work in a stall at the WNC farmers market, selling produce for the owner of the stall. there are days when the action is non-stop.. there is no wifi there so i overhear the radio played by the stall across from me which is either 80s/90s top 10 on random play of about 50 songs or it's "country western" at its worst.. they promise to bring wifi.. if they do, i'm bringing my ipod touch... no doubt!! | |

Hola, Manuel! Yep, Bene Gesserit -- your (adoptive) countrymen. |

Good advice: Beware of the harlequins. They're a big problem 'round these parts. |

'77 on the Zoldar and Clark, Tony. Here's a helpful link: http://www.planetmellotron.com/revz.htm | |

Tue. 9/18/12 12:44pm
tonyc:
@ Carmichael: Thanks much, but this track is actually not from the original LP -- it's only on the CD, which has lots of bonus stuff. The CD should perhaps be titled "Ghost of Way." |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:44pm
tonyc:
... as that's what it says on the disc itself (tho not on the cover). |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:47pm
Carmichael:
The link notes that The Ghost of Way CD is '88, and is actually a combo of the 2 Jasper Wrath albums. | |

Vamp evolved into Clark Hutchinson. Hey there, Holland Oats! |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:55pm
tonyc:
@ Carmichael: Thanks! It's a complicated story -- it's Jasper Wrath stuff that was in the can, some of which was released in the '70s under various made-up names (Zoldar & Clark, Arden House) by a tax-scam label, but all of which was recorded back then. |

hey so apparently mitt romney is now doubling-down on those nude photos of kate middleton | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 12:57pm
tonyc:
At least there are no nude photos of Mitt Romney -- yet. |

Greetings, O' Great Kat! |

kat330:
When the weather's good, I find myself less on the lists. There's still a winter to come though. I missed the Mothers, phooey. Archives. | |

rock_0la:
This Mojo Stuff is awesome ... reminds me of an epic J. Mascis > No Good Trying ! | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 1:36pm
tonyc:
@ rock-Ola: That Mascis cut is in fact on the MOJO Barrett comp I just played! |

Re Chamaeleon Church, on now: Chevy Chase was their (rather minimalist) drummer. |

My playlist system froze up on me for a while there -- everything seems to be normal now. Manfred Mann Chapter Three was on before this Human Flesh. Toodles, rock-Ola! Thanks for stopping by. |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:19pm
northguineahills:
Is this Human Flesh vintage? Very nice. | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:20pm
kat330:
This is suitably spooky -- but Halloween's a way's off, Tony. :) | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:20pm
tonyc:
Hiya northguineahills! This Human Flesh was just completed, but parts of it date back to 1990 |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:21pm
tonyc:
@ kat330: Have to warm up, don't I? |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:22pm
holland oats:
tony does the monster mash 24/7 | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:22pm
kat330:
And you'll lose a week of warmup next week. | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:23pm
Ricardo Montalban:
This is creepy. I like it. It sounds like something my wife says I'd go to sleep to. | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:23pm
kat330:
It's probably spookier catching only the occasional word, like "night" and "cold," etc. | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:28pm
kat330:
The traffic noises are rather reassuring we made it through the night -- I hope. | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:29pm
tonyc:
Don't worry, kat -- this whole thing has just been a discussion of favorite pasta recipes. |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:29pm
kat330:
Or not... | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:30pm
kat330:
Perhaps, if dough of human flesh, cold and dead. [shiver] | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:36pm
tonyc:
Pasta al freddo? (Freddo being Italian for cold, natch.) |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:39pm
tonyc:
It's funny how many great bands from the Virginia/Maryland/Washington, D.C. area have been overlooked over the years -- that region is sort of a cultural blind spot, I guess. |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:44pm
tonyc:
... or cultural black hole. |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:45pm
Doug S.:
My best friend was the drummer for one of the DC scene's best-loved local pop-punk acts, The Insect Surfers. When we graduated high school, I trundled off to college and he trundled off to rehearsal with his new band. Thirty-three years later I am STILL jealous. | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:49pm
tonyc:
You gave the insect drummer some. |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:50pm
tonyc:
Whatever that means.... (Don't ask me, I just work here.) |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:52pm
tonyc:
Once again, I'll be off next week. Thom Jones (DDDJJJ666) will be filling in. |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:53pm
MrFab:
Hey, I know The Insect Surfers - cuz they moved here to L.A. from DC (as did a certain Mr Rollins). That's one way to escape the "cultural black hole." | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:53pm
kat330:
Am I hearing a bit of Three Dog Night vocals here? Been working hard in the kitchen, so... | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:55pm
tonyc:
@ kat 330: Don't know about the Dog -- but that Bloodrock track is sort of a proto-version of their one hit," DOA." |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:56pm
kat330:
@tony: Given what you've been doing this last set, I guess Mr. 666 will be playing all light and airy pop sounds. Or are you just prepping us for next week? | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:56pm
tonyc:
I'll be running over today, in order to fit in one last Chamaeleon Church track. So stick around -- on this track, you can actually hear Chevy! |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:57pm
tonyc:
@ kat330: Mr. 666 refused to divulge his intentions. |

northguineahills:
Kickass set, tony! | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 2:59pm
kat330:
When I worked there, Chevy used to call to order Jamey Aebersold playalong sets for, AFAIK, his sax playing. Guess I never knew he started as a drummer. | |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:00pm
Ricardo Montalban:
Thanks for making radio sounds today, Tony! | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:01pm
tonyc:
Oops -- just read Doug's note about no Kaminsky. Sorry for the false info, all. |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:01pm
kat330:
Have a wonderful, safe week off the next, Tony! TY for all I sneaked in to hear! [sorry for the weird grammar of that former comment] | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:02pm
tonyc:
Thanks northguineahills, Senor M, Kat330 and everyone else. See you in 2 weeks! |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:02pm
Ricardo Montalban:
You mean Kaminsky's outski? | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:03pm
tonyc:
Yepski! |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:03pm
Doug S.:
@kat330 No worries! GTDR has nominated you for Secretary of Weird Grammar. (I sure hope you get confirmed by the Senate!) | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:05pm
tonyc:
Sayonara, all! Thanks for tuning in.... |
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:08pm
kat330:
@Doug: Ain't it always the case: we dames are nominated as secretaries instead of executives. | |
|
|
Tue. 9/18/12 3:12pm
tonyc:
I, of course, get to magically correct my stupid spelling and grammatical errors here. Ha! |
