![]() Hello! What a crazy day I'm having. Work's insane. |

![]() i'm set to order 'david bowie made me gay'. answers at last. sorry, Rich. hope your work day's over soon. |
![]() |
![]() Hi MB and everyone, shifted rooms. |
![]() |
![]() Hoping to see Stereolab in 2 weeks, sold out but watching for folks selling tix. New reissues out are fantastic. |

Mr Fab:
I'm imagining jeff Bridges trying to pick up a girl at a bar with this. |
![]() |
![]() Rich, here too with work. Been real hard to listen/chat lately, but finding those small pockets like today. |
![]() |
![]() Zappa doesn't get a ton of play in the WFMUverse. |
![]() |
🎃
Wed. 9/18/19 4:19pm
Martinibomb:
Why is that? |
![]() |
![]() too easy? |
![]() |
![]() the FMU djs like to defy expectations & they'd almost be expected to play Zappa. so they don't. :-D |
![]() |
![]() That's a bit true Rich. Gonna pull out a Zappa LP or two on Sunday. Already have some King Crimson (as saw them live last night) out. |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 4:24pm
Mr Fab:
Jeez, add King Crimson to the list of 'see-em-before-they-croak' (to quote the name of Cheech and Chong's recent reunion tour) Tho I did see Fripp with a solo group ages ago. |
![]() |
![]() I think sometimes people associate Zappa with his more sensationalized solo albums and sometimes noxious personality. I am a huge early Mothers freak. So much good music from them. |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 4:25pm
Mr Fab:
"I Can Phil It " - ha |
![]() |
![]() Holy crap, Otis! You saw The Crim for realz last night! Woah! |
![]() |
![]() Bongo Fury... Freak Out... and so on... yes! |
![]() |
![]() I wish I had me some bongos... |
![]() |
🎃
Wed. 9/18/19 4:27pm
Martinibomb:
How was King Crim live?? |
![]() |
![]() Yea, was amazing. Fripp and Levin played as if they were 20 years old and 3 drummers. 7 piece band doing Larks, Court album (as it's 50 years this year) + Easy Money... the best. 3 hours they played with a 20min intermission. Nutso. |
![]() |
![]() also interesting that an artist with as an intimidating discography like John Zorn doesn't get a ton of airplay around these parts. I think similar reasons. |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 4:28pm
Mr Fab:
King Crimson were playing at the Greek Theater, which, like all concert tickets nowadays, is so freakin expensive. And we've already recently seen Blondie/ Elvis Costello, and Brian Wilson/The Zombies at the Greek recently. Uh, Li'l Fab, you don't need school supplies, or like food or anything this month, do you..? |
![]() |
![]() Fav part was the 21st Century Schizoid Man encore ... and Starless and Bible Black was nuts. |
![]() |
![]() Sounds like fun. I haven't heard much of the new lineup other than a few yootoobs here and there... |
![]() |
![]() It was pricey, for sure. $90 CAD a ticket (so around $70 USD). |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 4:29pm
Mr Fab:
I would totally lose my poop at those, Otis. |
![]() |
![]() Nice mixin' Martinibomb! This is luverly! |
![]() |
![]() It was a fun rock concert and my first time seeing Crimson. Worth it for the cost. Regret so many artists I pass on and then they pass. |
![]() |
![]() Only caught Elvis Costello once Fab, in Seattle, doing Juliet Letters in the late 1990s. Really great show. |
![]() |
![]() i think you're right, Rich. |
![]() |
![]() yeah. I was surprised when Crimson reformed. I thought Fripp was sort of getting out of the performing biz. This might be his last hurrah. |
![]() |
![]() the fmu dj is *not* going to play what a 'freeform radio' dj might be expected to play. no no no! |
![]() |
![]() They are doing mad touring, every year for the past 5 or 6 and have visited Montreal 2 or 3 times over the past decade. Finally said, okay, I gotta go. |
![]() |
![]() it's good to realize there's really only one chance you have to get something like that done ~ the one coming up right now. |
![]() |
![]() don't count on another time. |
![]() |
![]() I don't think any version of Crimson has played Portland since 2001 or so, opening for Tool(!). |

Mailman Tom:
I went to see the movie, Medium Cool, when it was on the big screen. Luckily, for the filmmakers, the 1968 police riot in Chicago was happening while they were filming. |

🎃
Wed. 9/18/19 4:39pm
geezerette:
Sounds so good! Everything! |
![]() |
![]() Fripp did this crazy thing called Slow Music Project here several years ago. Sort of an electric chamber music thing, with really sparse playing, all improvised. Peter Buck from REM, Hector Zazou, William Reifling from Ministry, The Blackouts |
![]() |
![]() I read a bit about Tool joking on a tour with Crimson saying to the effect that, hey don't tell those guys we ripped off King Crimson (to King Crimson). Ha, fun. They influenced so many. Those first KC albums + the McDonald Gilles LP are favs. |

Mr Fab:
Hi Mailman Tom. Haven't actually seen the film "Medium Cool." Have you, Martinibomb? |
![]() |
![]() speaking of Fripp! |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 4:59pm
Mr Fab:
The Nazz nugget "Open My Eyes" will probably always be my fave Todd, but that was maximum cool. |
![]() |
![]() My fondness for Rundgren has grown these last few years. I can now see what all the fuss is about. |
![]() |
🎃
Wed. 9/18/19 5:01pm
Martinibomb:
yup! Love the Roaches those harmonies are pretty killer |
![]() |
![]() Fripp was actually on Saturday Night Live, playing with The Roches, but hidden in the background. |

Wed. 9/18/19 5:02pm
Martinibomb:
Anyone remember that Todd Rundgren Amiga CG/3D music video from like.. 1990ish? |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 5:04pm
Mr Fab:
Love the Fripp solos in the Roches track. Similar to his "Heroes" and Eno's "St Elmos Fire" leads. Wish he'd done more like that. |
![]() |
Wed. 9/18/19 5:06pm
Mr Fab:
I think this was sampled for Little Fluffy Clouds. Wonder if Reich saw any scratch from that.. |
Wed. 9/18/19 5:06pm
Dave In St Albans UK:
Hi Martinibomb. Now I am in minimalist heaven. Steve Reich is my go to desert island composer. Saw this live with Pat Metheny and Kronos Quartet. | |

Martinibomb:
@Dave I like that stuff too. that's why yer listening cause we like the same stuff hah |
![]() |
![]() @Fab - Those first 2 Nazz albums are super favs. My vinyl copies are beat down, but sound so good on vinyl. |
![]() |
![]() My 2nd fav Prince album here, Sign of the Times. Usually that's a lot of folks 1st favs.. but Parade is the one that is at the top for me. Dirty Mind 3rd. As of now, always shifts/changes. |
![]() |

Wed. 9/18/19 5:16pm
Martinibomb:
I never got to see Prince live. Def a life regret for sure |
![]() |
![]() You and I both. Came to Montreal twice as well and both times I was like, oh tix are a bit pricey. Should have gone. We have the music though, oh yes! |
