Avatar The Evan "Funk" Davies Show Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 9:17pm
Hoboken Jack:

Sam, the Go-Go's doc also ignored later decades. I feel like younger documentarians strive for a neater bow? Surprised they didn't mention the Bee Gees final top 10 hit from 1989, "One." But that and sporadic Go-Go reunions don't fit the dramatic arc.

Avatar The Evan "Funk" Davies Show Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 9:20pm
McGroovey:

This Tubes has less Fee Waybill than their big hits, more Vince Welnick, I guess. It fits with the Utopia album of the same year, and in fact they toured together. And this is the sound of the late '80s/early '90s Todd solo albums. The best songs on the Utopia record are probably better than the best songs the Tubes album, but the worst songs on the Tubes album are probably better than the worst songs on the Utopia album.

I'm thinking too hard.
  9:21pm
ledzeppelinsucks:

The Tubes were the first band to play live at the brand new Tacoma Dome August 1983. I saw them. Then came David Bowie.
  9:21pm
Sam Pocker:

Jack, the Go-Go's doc I felt was more about the label paying for a commercial to generate catalog sales (which worked). They skipped over a lot of pivotal moments in that one. Not that there's anything wrong with that but it didn't seem as if it was trying to tell the story as much as it was just trying to get a new audience interested in the band.

@Handy The was definitely some of that neater bow syndrome in that doc in how they presented the band's significance as an all-girl act. You'd have thought it was them, the people who agreed to talk on camera, and that was it.
Avatar The Evan "Funk" Davies Show Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 9:25pm

Love Bomb is paired with Bora Bora 2000 on the Best Of (which, Handy, also includes She's a Beauty, Talk To Ya Later, but not White Punks on Dope).

Avatar The Evan "Funk" Davies Show Marathon 2024 Swag For Life Member 9:26pm

Both "Love Bomb" and "POV" (the Utopia album) totally bombed. Both bands basically broke up as a results, though of course the Tubes later got back together.

A cover of one song "Mated" from POV was a big hit somewhere international a year or two later.

Joe, nothing major was skipped in the Go-Go's doc, but it falsely gives you the impression that the new single I is the first time they've worked together in 30 years. I still enjoyed it and the Bee Gees doc a whole lot.

McGroovey:

Piece By Piece and Feel It totally feel like '80s Todd songs. He had a big hand in most of the songs. The band was bickering, and arrived at the sessions with only a few half-written songs, and he had to fix it.

Hi everyone!

So glad you played that Tubes album, Evan. I've recently been rediscovering "The Runt"'s solo work, the Utopia discog, and his production work with other acts like The Tubes. As a matter of fact, I saw Utopia and The Tubes perform at The Capitol Theater in Passaic back in 1986. (Still have the original ticket stub to prove it! 😎)

Jack, I agree it was better made than the Go-Go's film but not as strong as the Bee Gees, and that maybe purely by issue of the budget and the material. I've never been a particularly big Pouges fan and by the end of it I was left to feel like he was just kind of a drug addict who got lucky.

Hi everyone I need some help with the wfmu app who do yall think I should ask? It's a bit complicated, but basically I have a new iPhone 12 and because T-Mobile screwed up my order. They made me get another iPhone 12. I have to set up the 2nd and send the first new iPhone 12 back. It hasn't been working at all. Nothing wants to set up the second new iPhone 12 and as a result of fooling around with it. It erased. All. My saved shows in the W FM U app. I had shows saved on this phone from 2014 to the present. I had shows on this phone that don't exist anymore. I mean, they're in the archives, but I can't get them on the phone. It's really depressing and upsetting me. I don't know why it's happening and so I tried to save a couple of new shows. Like some shows from Shrunken Planet. And. When I went back to the app later, they weren't there, even though I downloaded them for later playing. Anyone know who I should contact about this? It's bumming me out.

There was a band in Cincinnati called Manwich, but I don't think they had any songs about it, but the organ player carried around a can of the stuff.

Hey all. Just dropping in and I see we are talking about canned meat. Oddly enough, I just finished a very late dinner of a Spamwich. I had been eating almost vegan all week and had no appetite today,and suddenly I thought I was gonna faint. So, half a can of Spam on whole-grain bread with mayo and relish. Pretty good!
