Listener comments!

Morning.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:03am From: Listener Dave

Hey Ken - how are you feeling this week? Any new diagnosis?

Wed. 1/23/08 9:03am From: Wes

Beefhearty

Wed. 1/23/08 9:05am From: Negator

Let's smoke Ken's crystals, HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAH!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:09am From: Ken

Morning all - Struggling through computer audio problemos here.... drat! Down to one computer... I really need two.

Same diagnosis as last week LPR Reflux. Nausea milder tham previous weeks but still there and I am most definitely under-caffeinated.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:11am From: nEGATOR

Can you drink Chai Tea?

Wed. 1/23/08 9:13am From: Ken

Tea?! Tea is for pussies! It's the caffeine anyway that makes me sick.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:13am From: dei xhrist

Yay Tom Waits! I will bear his scraggly love child!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:15am From: dei x

Did you try eating candied ginger, or putting a slice of the root in hot water? Which would not be tea, keeping your machismo intact.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:17am From: Ken

Thanks, yes, must try ginger. Sorry about the tea remark, just trying to grapple with networking problems and Im taking it out on Negator.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:17am From: Negator

I have a pussy and drink Chai Tea. Don't you want one?

Wed. 1/23/08 9:17am From: John from Oslo

Hia Ken, Try a nice hot cup of red wine toddy with rhum and a slice of lemon, it is the best thing that doesn't help.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:19am From: Negator

"hot cup of red wine toddy with rhum and a slice of lemon". Listen to him, he's from Oslo!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:20am From: latetothegame

whats up with Sweden - i like Sweden -its meatballs, it's zany chefs, and the noisy band Dungen - so it that regard - HELLO SWEDEN! but still the curiosity remains - whats the dillyo with the shout out?


and if you can play some Dungen that'll be cool too!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:21am From: dei x

Booze helps. Rilly. You relax and your body can kick into self healing mode while your conscious mind looks at something twinkly.
HALLO MANCHESTAH!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:21am From: Barney

MOOOOOOO Cows!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:21am From: John from Oslo

Finland, Finland, Finland,
The country where I want to be,
Pony trekking or camping,
Or just watching TV.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
It's the country for me.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:22am From: jonathan

COWS! god bless.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:24am From: Negator

I partied with the cows in 1990 or something until Thor's friend started fondling him in the room with us all there. Time to go home!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:29am From: Barney

I saw the Heroin Sheiks play in Minneapolis in 2000 or so and Shannon's mom (I had to ask her after the show and pay my respects) stood out in the audience as a nice middle-aged midwestern woman beaming up at her son.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:31am From: dei x

Isn't it great when parents support their children in their chosen endeavors!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:33am From: Prince Von Ahole

My first concert was Alice Cooper. There were these giant ballons filled with somekind of fake blood -- well, they weren't filled per-say but there was enough blood in them to make a mess when broken. And they were broken by us the fans soon after they were floated out over the crowd. My parents were horrified when they picked me up after the show. I was directly under one of those blood balloons during the show! God bless Alice Cooper!!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:36am From: norwegian architect dude

finally some tatu music..I love fake lesbians!!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:37am From: Prince Von Ahole

Ken -- what do you know about the tATu movie coming out?

Wed. 1/23/08 9:38am From: Wes

Bjork would have nailed this track, tATu hurts my ears

Wed. 1/23/08 9:43am From: Ken

Do I know about the forthcoming tATu movie?! I'm counting the days, Herr Prince!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:52am From: Negator

QUICK! Somebody get Ken some caffeine!

Wed. 1/23/08 9:55am From: JJZ

You would think some lively music would perk him up.

Wed. 1/23/08 9:59am From: jonathan

who is playing guitar on this track? the dj rupture thing.
excellent!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:17am From: miss buxley

heeeey ken,,,whats shakin??? did you have a grooooovy week??? i sure did,,are you gonna check out that new movie "MEET THE SPARTANS" commin out this weekend? i mit myself,,btw i sent you some mail ,,,,see you next week,,,=) =)

Wed. 1/23/08 10:17am From: beth

Ken, as I was noticing Persepolis' Oscar nomination in the paper, you played an excerpt from the soundtrack at that precise moment. Coincidence? I think not!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:17am From: nEGATOR

The competition payed for the "..that record sucked" comment. Somebody tipped off Sonic Youth labels competition.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:17am From: giselle

that warehouse of "landing on water"..definitely possible. I think you're on to something

Wed. 1/23/08 10:21am From: Howard Stern

Hey, this is my rap!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:21am From: H&#233;ctor

ken, I agree totally with your comments about the use of music on music soundtracks... to sell, to sell cds.
Specially focused the Landing on Water placement... David Geffen must be crying about the day he signed Neil Young!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:22am From: lesbianlove

all this talk of lesbian love makes me want some caffeine and some music - HELLO OSLO

Wed. 1/23/08 10:22am From: Howard Stern

Lesbians, that is.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:25am From: SueB

shit. did anyone else lose the stream?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:26am From: raga

aye, sueb. i did.
and hi ken.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:26am From: Negator

Lost stream, Now back! Shit!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:27am From: woj

yup, stream kaput here too

Wed. 1/23/08 10:27am From: Ken

Which stream was it that cut out, the 128k MP3 stream?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:28am From: SueB

yes. but i tried 32 as well - no good.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:28am From: Okasa

Oh my god, they killed Kenny!

(My 128k MP3 stream is still dead)

Wed. 1/23/08 10:28am From: patrick

both 128 and 32

Wed. 1/23/08 10:29am From: tk

both down. now work is unbearable...

Wed. 1/23/08 10:29am From: keith

all that lesbian talk burned up the connection.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:30am From: Listener Dave from NH

The 128K MP3 stream died out on me a minute ago. The Windows Media stream took a while to get up and running but it's playing (the 128K one's still deaded).

Wed. 1/23/08 10:30am From: ~L

I'm not a Kimya fan, but you tube The Moldy Peaches on the View; it is so cute when the guy kisses Whoopi at the end!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:31am From: woj

personally, i blame bergen belsen.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:32am From: woj

aac+ is working

Wed. 1/23/08 10:34am From: dei x

iTunes not working

Wed. 1/23/08 10:35am From: Ken

Yes, move over to the AAC+ stream. It sounds really good actually, almost as good as the 1298k MP3 stream. There are links to it over there to the left.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:38am From: norwegian architect dude

no wfmu mp3 stream in norway:(

Wed. 1/23/08 10:39am From: Dickdong (UK)

windows media player working in UK - nothing else

Wed. 1/23/08 10:40am From: Vicki

AAC not working either here, sorry Ken

Wed. 1/23/08 10:41am From: Ken

Thanks for the early warning everybody... we have a fairly serious server problem in New York City.. Im not sure which streams are up and which are down, actually. But the present state is how its going to remain for least a few hours and possibly more.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:41am From: norwegian architect dude

windows media player is also working in norway:)

Wed. 1/23/08 10:42am From: jonathan

windows media is working in prov.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:43am From: Vicki

Realplayer stream IS working.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:44am From: Negator

When Giulliani saved NYC he should have taken a look at the servers. Give him a call and tell him he missed saving something...

Wed. 1/23/08 10:46am From: Carmichael

I have 20k windows way out in Sacramento.

Did Giuliani save something?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:47am From: Negator

You know this Buddy Scott Trio song is really a Christmas Song isn't it?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:47am From: Ben

Hi Ken, great seeing you all last night, thanks for the masterful clog dancing demo!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:47am From: Prince Von Ahole

I really love that Barbecue song by BST -- I ing that song to all the girls!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:48am From: dei x

not working for me. I'll have to console myself with an archive already on my system. sniff.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:49am From: Raj

Got the reallplayer going.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:50am From: Ken

OK, here's what's up: Both MP3 streams and the Ogg stream are down. All other streams are up (Windows, Real and AAC+) but each of those three working streams require particular players and are not as universally good as the MP3 streams. Winamp 5 or better will open the AAC+ stream which is the best sounding of the working streams and the only stereo one. Winamp is free and its great but its only for pc: winamp.com

Wed. 1/23/08 10:53am From: woj

aac+ still functioning here. foobar2000 player supports it very nicely too -- and it's a lot lighter on the system resources than winamp these days...

Wed. 1/23/08 10:53am From: Prince Von Ahole

I use 20k Windows media player for streaming -- is working fine and always does!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:55am From: dei x

yay I'm back. Windows media.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:55am From: Ken

Woj is right - foobar2000 is great! Got a link for downloading it woj?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:55am From: doron

streams are back...

Wed. 1/23/08 10:56am From: jonathan

man, that fire on fire song is so strange and great.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:56am From: Ken

Howd that happen Doron? Did the office jockeys at TH do a restart?

Wed. 1/23/08 10:57am From: the nation and their allies

hurrah!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:57am From: Ken

Thanks Doron!

Wed. 1/23/08 10:57am From: norwegian architect dude

sweet.. iTunes stream are back:)

Wed. 1/23/08 10:58am From: Ike H

Hey, you're finally promoting the AAC-Plus stream! Under duress, of course, but still....

**NOTICE: AAC-Plus plug-in for Windows Media Player is free here:
http://www.orban.com/plugin/

Ooops too late. MP3 streams are back, so now nobody will use it.

Wed. 1/23/08 10:59am From: Negator

North Cakalacky streams is backy by cracky! Who's got the cracky!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:03am From: dei x

Negator, come back to our planet.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:06am From: cheri

ken-time to be serious,,i want to thank you for being real understandin i know that i'm takin a risk with this last weekly comment,,but i sent you 2 mails explainin it all,,i hope you mail me back later,,thanks again ken,,,,=)

Wed. 1/23/08 11:06am From: Dickdong (UK)

You fiend! You cruel, cruel man!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:07am From: -max-

HELLO JERSEYCITY!!

Ike H: Did listen a bit on the AAC+ connection using Winamp. Sounded a bit louder, but the speakers here are not that great so I couldn't tell if the sound quality is better. I'm just glad to be able to hear it at all, to be honest.

-max-

Wed. 1/23/08 11:08am From: Dickdong

.... but anything's better than nothing.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:09am From: Ike H

For anybody with a slower connection, I still say, check out that AAC+ stream. Sounds waaaaay better than all the other low-bandwidth streams, including the 32k MP3 stream. Almost as good as the 128k MP3 stream. And it costs FMU less money to stream it to you.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:10am From: Jilda

excellent job restoring the stream...dont cross the streams...and by the way we're going broke, vote Ron Paul 2008

laters

Wed. 1/23/08 11:11am From: Doug

Ah lovely .. playing Drumheller ... those fellas are very talented and, of course, pretty much completely overlooked. They've all been very active in the Toronto avant scene for years.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:11am From: Jilda

AAC+ rules

Wed. 1/23/08 11:11am From: dei x

I believe in faux lesbian russian love, the easter bunny, and the government of people by the people

Wed. 1/23/08 11:12am From: patrick

ron paul? hes got to be the WORST choice!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:13am From: woj

foobar is found at http://www.foobar2000.org/

i might stick with the aac+ for now, actually. as others have said, the sound is pretty dang good for such a low bitrate and, since crappy speakers at work are the order of the day, why waste bandwidth?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:13am From: -max-

Ike H sez: "...And it costs FMU less money to stream it to you..."

Thanks, I didn't know this. Will be changing and using it for my main connection.

money?? / music!!!!!

ken is the man, but that free will claim is large, i mean ken doesn't even color his hair!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:16am From: Carmichael

I believe in Daniel Johnston, running as meditation (and self-medication), and Sierra Nevada Pale Ale.

And lesbians, faux or no faux

Wed. 1/23/08 11:19am From: ?

Is this song a joke?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:20am From: Ike H

Although I'm not sure how MUCH less money. I guess it could be a pretty small amount... ??? Anybody know?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:20am From: Doug

The Paris tune? He's not joking, no.

As far as I know.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:20am From: dei x

windows media and foobar play a fraction of a second off, making this Paris track even more layered. So, foobar+FMU(listen) = saved $[FMU]?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:23am From: jojo

the stream break got us to hook up the old radio, it works great...like home it sounds better and is the real way to listen to Ken's show about freedom, wow i feel so free

Wed. 1/23/08 11:23am From: Jilda

military overstretch is destroying this country.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:24am From: Bad Ronald

EC does a pretty good cover of this tune on "Out of Our Idiot"

Wed. 1/23/08 11:26am From: Doug

Yuh! Wah! Rohh, wah! Ooh, wah! Aah!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:32am From: Carmichael

From Yoko Ono to Peggy Lee in the same set. I need a neck brace.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:33am From: norwegian architect dude

wow.. ken is playing black coffee.. you know coffee is not good for you ken.. hehe

Wed. 1/23/08 11:34am From: dei x

audio free association! And, a nice thing about foobar is that the little info thing in my taskbar shows their logo and the title/artist that's playing. faboo!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:35am From: Mouth from the South

Yeah, Rita Lee ! Go Brasil ! Viva o Brasil, o melhor pais do mundo !

Wed. 1/23/08 11:36am From: Ken

MFTS - Do you think we dont understand what you're saying? You said that Brazil eats America's ass, am I right?!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:37am From: Mouth From the South

America's Balls (Nuts if you want a cheesy pun), but close enough.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:38am From: ?

Jorge Ben ? Too much. I'm tuning in every Wed from here onwards. Parab&eacute;ns pela musica brasileira.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:41am From: joe nathan

that makes two of us.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:42am From: Listener Dave from NH

Coffee isn't good for you, it's *great* for you.
There is one good thing about not drinking coffee for a while - that first cup after you quit quitting is really, really, really good.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:45am From: woj

i love the bed music for ken's final mic break ... but it always means the gig is up...alas!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:49am From: Listener Dave

The Times had a list of most effective product placements last Sunday. The Guitar Hero South Park episode was #1.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:50am From: reverb

i think you are right about juno - that movie did kind of bug me because it did seem to be like a 40 year old rendition of adolescence. I think the ads were kind of a self reflexive joke in Talledaga nights - still sucked as a movie though.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:50am From: Sean Daily

Um... is Ken having a Kenny G moment?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:51am From: Doug from Canada

Don't we all have Kenny G moments?

Wed. 1/23/08 11:54am From: Negator

Some Dirty Southern German crunk!

Wed. 1/23/08 11:54am From: woj

Kenny G! I LOVE CAKE!

Somebody please tar and feather those responsible for Ricky Bobby.

Wed. 1/23/08 11:58am From: esch oder anarchie!

Ken -- do y'all at WFMU have any records by the great, great, great Hamburg ex-punker Knarf Rellom? For instance: Autobiographie einer Heizung?

Wed. 1/23/08 2:39pm From: Ken

Esch, I've never heard of Knarf Rellom but I can check. I love that Hamburg punk! Was he in any Hamburg bands?
