Listener comments!

Wed. 1/14/09 3:13pm From: Cecile

Irwin, I'm sorry I missed the usual tumultous bump transition between your program and Kenny's.

Did I miss anything good?

Wed. 1/14/09 3:14pm From: Cecile

and bumpy transition, I meant to say

Wed. 1/14/09 3:16pm From: ?

confusion, indeed

Wed. 1/14/09 3:16pm From: Cecile

I see you are atoning for the version last week.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:16pm From: Sean Daily

Has Nick the Bard been possessed by the Devil? Or maybe he's channeling Nathan Explosion?

Wed. 1/14/09 3:17pm From: Sean Daily

Oh, and... Sixth comment! Woo hoo!

Wed. 1/14/09 3:17pm From: Cecile

I liked the death metal feel of version #2

Wed. 1/14/09 3:19pm From: Sean Daily

And now Nick the Bard is going to start firehose puking pea soup on a Catholic priest and I'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO SEE IT.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:20pm From: Cecile

bravo, Nick!

Wed. 1/14/09 3:20pm From: Cornelius Bros. & Sister Rose

Cecile! Welcome back. We were workin' this groove for you earlier today:
"It's collate,
Or turn Ken down,
I believe, I believe, I believe
I'm falling behiii-iind..."

Wed. 1/14/09 3:22pm From: Cecile

LOLOLOL!

Yes, finally done, back from the mail mines.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:29pm From: Oatman

RIP Wizz-O. Nick the bard has some competition!

Wed. 1/14/09 3:31pm From: Sean Daily

Sorry, Oatman, but Wizz-O can't compete wtih Nick the Bard. Nick the Bard is in a whole 'nother league, compared to Wizz-O.

Now whether that's a GOOD thing or a BAD thing, I leave to you to decide.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:31pm From: IntangibleArts

No competition!
Nick shall write his victory scriptures with the blood of his enemies!

Wed. 1/14/09 3:35pm From: Oatman

You may be right, I may be crazy.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:35pm From: Cecile

that 's SO metal.

I'm just glad no footage exists of me singing "Sabotage" with my 10 year old nephews when we were playing Rock Band recently.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:37pm From: Laura L

But Oatman, maybe it's a lunatic we're lookin' for.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:42pm From: still b/p

Rip Wizzo would be my name if I was a clever, moody, scrappy, surfing and hot-roddin' private investigator in a bad comic.... solving the mystery of the bloody scripture pages.

Wed. 1/14/09 3:43pm From: Oatman

... don't try to save me .... eh, for all i know ya may be right,

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyiSnQrjrDo

Wed. 1/14/09 3:44pm From: Oatman

Rip Wizzo. Best name I've heard in ages. Someone needs to register www.ripwizzo.com

Wed. 1/14/09 3:46pm From: Sean Daily

PLEASE GOD, MAKE THE ALLITERATION STOP. I'LL TALK. I'LL SPILL MY GUTS. JUST... MAKE IT STOOOOOOOP...

Wed. 1/14/09 3:51pm From: IntangibleArts

The mystery of the bloody scripture pages was FOILED with a little help from FAB detergent! PROTEIN GETS OUT PROTEIN, inspector Wizzo! Muahahaaa!

Wed. 1/14/09 4:03pm From: Cecile

oy, vey

Wed. 1/14/09 4:03pm From: Sean Daily

"Find Jewish Stuff" is proof that Christians don't have the market cornered on creepy religious music.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:04pm From: Andy

Amazing: I just received and email from Jews In Solidarity With Palestine! Shalom!

Wed. 1/14/09 4:05pm From: Cecile

now we need to hear "A is for Allah" by the former Cat Stevens...

Wed. 1/14/09 4:05pm From: still b/p

When she sings "I...see...a...", it sounds like "itsy-bitsy teeny-weeny yellow polka dot bikini" is coming next.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:06pm From: IntangibleArts

.....or "Christ and the Pale Queens Mighty in Sorrow" by Current 93... just sayin'...

Wed. 1/14/09 4:10pm From: Cecile

Tiny Tim was great at uncovering all these obscure pop tunes from the early part of the 20th century.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:13pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

ol school jamz

Wed. 1/14/09 4:13pm From: RSTVMO

Hey Foddercodger.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:15pm From: Cecile

dude, is this the real trinity?
Cause if it is, the Holy Spirit is really rocking the bass

Wed. 1/14/09 4:38pm From: north guinea hills

wow, i have something in common w/ irwin, holy shiat!!!!

(ok, i have other tastes in common, but i'm not want to admit many of them)

Wed. 1/14/09 4:39pm From: Dave Matthews

The Dave Matthews Band doesn't actually have anybody named Dave Matthews in it.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:40pm From: Dave Matthews

Woops. I stand corrected. I am in the band. Never mind!

Wed. 1/14/09 4:41pm From: Intangible Arts

yep, that's my Dave Matthews Band experience, exactly. "Vapor" summed it up nicely.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:42pm From: bozobarrett

The Dave Matthews Band has been described as white bread with the crust trimmed off.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:43pm From: north guinea hills

sweet, suicidal, i feel like i'm 10 again!

Wed. 1/14/09 4:43pm From: Cecile

they used to play Institutionalized on our "active rock" station...

Wed. 1/14/09 4:43pm From: Laura L

All I wanted was a Pepsi and SHE WOULDN'T GIVE IT TO ME!!!!

THANK YOU!

Wed. 1/14/09 4:43pm From: Sean Daily

SUICIDAL TENDENCIES! You make me want to get into my ripped jeans and point my horns at the sky, Irwin.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:44pm From: ted

Justin Bond/Kiki and Herb cover this song too

Wed. 1/14/09 4:46pm From: Ike

Open playlist? Irwin must mean WRXP, but the clash of indie rock, burnt-out AOR, and overplayed classic rock is like mixing brussel sprouts, limburger cheese, and caramel. Sure, every once in a while they'll play Suicidal Tendencies or New York Dolls or Talking Heads, but its ratings are abysmal, so it will surely die soon.

Irwin, do you ever listen to WNYE in morning drive?

Wed. 1/14/09 4:47pm From: ted

Institutionalized is also featured on Guitar Hero 2

Wed. 1/14/09 4:48pm From: Irwin

What's "morning," Ike? I'm unfamiliar with that time of day.

Wed. 1/14/09 4:51pm From: AnAnonymousParty

So it's a stereo test record?

Wed. 1/14/09 4:52pm From: Kevin of BayRidge

For us radio listeners (in the morning), NYE is the new JM in the AM beater (no disrespect to Nachum!)

Wed. 1/14/09 4:58pm From: Ike

What? I'm not the only one listening to that?

I bet WRXP would never play the Lightning Seeds. And if they did, it would be sandwiched between "Highway to Hell" and some horseshit by Lenny Kravitz.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:02pm From: Cecile

I can listen to Highway to Hell every day of my life, but the other side of the sandwich does stink big time.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:05pm From: Irwin

I get it, Ike. Music the masses enjoy, music that SELLS, is beneath you.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:05pm From: Fred Wisniewski

Hi Irwin. Loving today's show. Can you play some Dave Matthews? I've heard great things.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:06pm From: Intangible Arts

"wake up and pee?"
what?

Wed. 1/14/09 5:09pm From: Whale Dung

Find something that is beneath ME!

Wed. 1/14/09 5:09pm From: Cecile

these are junior high kids? The horn soloist is on fire.
the vocalist on the other hand...

Wed. 1/14/09 5:10pm From: Limbo Pole in Hell

I am.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:11pm From: Whale Dung

touche

Wed. 1/14/09 5:13pm From: Beany & Cecil

can't imagine posting a comment every 5 minutes. on every show. for every song played. teach me how?

Wed. 1/14/09 5:13pm From: Ike

Nah, I like a few songs that sell well. I like Trent's show (usually). I like Tom Petty and late Beatles and Spoon. I just don't want to hear any one song 128,000 times.

Just to be clear, I would like RXP to succeed, but the blend is way way off. Mixing music incorrectly -- FAIL.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:16pm From: Cecile

is that a hint that I post too much? Cause I get it.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:16pm From: Kevin of BayRidge

Whatever the issues of bad sandwiches or condescendations to the masses, RXP is the best thing right of 92 at this fleeting moment.

Irwin, thanks for the very best of Yes inspired Richie Havens

Wed. 1/14/09 5:19pm From: Irwin

Post as inclined, Cecile. No prob here.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:21pm From: Cecile

thanks

Wed. 1/14/09 5:27pm From: Ike

So, if I say, "Hooray for the destruction of typos!" then will that seem like a non sequitur shortly?

Wed. 1/14/09 5:32pm From: Irwin

Already is, Ike!

Wed. 1/14/09 5:35pm From: Jason

Great Let's Active song! really enjoying the show today, especially The Middle Class, the Bats, the Jewish stuff, and of course the foo fighters

Wed. 1/14/09 5:39pm From: Sean Daily

Erm... What does Chinese pagoda music have to do with the Milky Way?

Wed. 1/14/09 5:40pm From: Cecile

this Milky Way song sounds like something Moondog would write.

Wed. 1/14/09 5:40pm From: missv

what a purdy song!

Wed. 1/14/09 5:43pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Gadolinium! Gadolinium! My favorite element!

Wed. 1/14/09 5:45pm From: Dugtzu

Space songs is an awesome album- bought it second hand for the great cover art but the music is an amazing bonus!!!!!

Wed. 1/14/09 5:46pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Hey, when did this turn into "Music from the hearts of Space"?

Wed. 1/14/09 5:46pm From: RSTVMO Inc.

Moondog is right!
