Every show starts with the ’70s! We’ll rediscover forgotten rockers, revisit unfairly maligned disco beats and replay power-pop favorites. Next: plenty of new releases, occasional live bands and more. Don’t let the nickname confuse you.

Favoriting October 29, 2014: ULTIMATE PAINTING live set! And, it's the final week of WFMU's Silent Fundraiser and Mascot Contest

Listen to this show: Pop-up listen Pop-up player!

It's the last week of WFMU's Silent Fundraiser and Mascot Contest, and I've got one more special show to remind you of how awesome WFMU is (and hopefully to motivate you to pledge).

It's been a stellar month so far on the show if I do say so myself! Let's review:

  • The yearly "Mayhem In The PM" throwback show, with nothing but punk/new wave/power pop/post-punk records from '77-'82!
  • The AM Gold Throwdown, with special guest Clay Pigeon!
  • Last week's mind-melting double bill featuring Lloyd Cole and last-minute addition The #1s, plus Singles Going On Vacation (slight return)!
And tonight I've got a fantastic live set from Ultimate Painting!

I'm not suggesting that I should be rewarded for bringing you these great shows - I love being on the radio at WFMU every week and give my time gladly. But I AM suggesting that WFMU should be rewarded for being the kind of place where shows like these -- and shows not at all like these -- happen every day. The money you donate will help us finish outfitting Monty Hall, our new ground floor performance space, which in turn will enable us to bring you even more live shows and special events for your listening, viewing, and attending-in-person pleasure. It also helps us squeak through the next few months before we start our loud and noisy annual fundraising marathon.

Now, because this is a SILENT fundraiser I won't be talking about it much at all during my show. I'm depending on these words, and the show itself, to convince you to PLEASE PLEDGE!

If you're one of the 25-odd people who have already pledged, THANK YOU! Your support is greatly appreciated. If not,
P L E A S E   P L E D G E   N O W !

Speaking of Lloyd Cole. last week's fabulolus show inspired me to dig a bit & check out his work with ROEDELIUS .. I know, who would've thunk?.

I believe I will comment on my fondness for Persian Claws for at least the 3rd time, possibly 4th.

Hey, speaking of live music and engineers and whatnot -- this is my last show of WFMU's Silent Fundraiser and I'm just $120 away from my goal! We're raising money to finish outfitting our new live performance space so we can bring you even more great live sets like this one.

So far about 25 people have pledged to my show this month - I'd love to get that number up to 30 tonight! Click the blue pledge button in that white box up there on the left to show your support.

Thank you!
