Mon. 3/9/09 9:44am From: JoeSteele

It says, "Not between 6:30 am and 9:30 am or 3:30 pm and 6:30 pm. No more than two bicycles are permitted on a PATH car and bicycles are not permitted in the first railcar of a train."

Mon. 3/9/09 9:46am From: stingy d

Mon. 3/9/09 9:53am From: Parq

D, I don't know what you've got on the NYC end, but the FMU building is a very short walk from the PATH on the JC end.

Mon. 3/9/09 9:53am From: JoeSteele

I did actually google it. :)

Mon. 3/9/09 9:54am From: still b/p

i don't know where is the bulding... and i usually avoid new jersey. but there is an exception to be made.

and i hate swmiming.

Mon. 3/9/09 9:57am From: JoeSteele

Can't beat the Path, you can use your metro card and everything.

Mon. 3/9/09 9:57am From: stingy d

i can use my metrocard!?!??

Mon. 3/9/09 9:58am From: annie

Mon. 3/9/09 10:03am From: stingy d

alrigth thats it for today. you're gonna kill me

Mon. 3/9/09 10:04am From: JoeSteele

I'm fairly sure you can get a path train near Penn Station, is that where the Metro North trains are?

Mon. 3/9/09 10:05am From: annie

i might have to get on my horse and just ride down there!!

Mon. 3/9/09 10:07am From: Cecile

I did!

Mon. 3/9/09 10:08am From: Neil

Hey Annie.
Metro North takes you into Grand Central. From there it's a 15 minute walk to the PATH station at 6th and 33rd.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:09am From: Jorge

That was the show about the dog pills and the third eye lol , by the way how are you doing ?

Mon. 3/9/09 10:09am From: annie

neil. thanks!!

Mon. 3/9/09 10:12am From: Cecile

Yes, the eye was my "eye"dea.
He was going to write something on his forehead for me, and I suggested a third eye. Being station manager Ken, Ike tells me that he actually glued an eye on his forehead. LOL! Going that extra mile.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:12am From: still b/p

Mon. 3/9/09 10:29am From: bw

Das bekannteste Stück von Eroc, der Instrumentaltitel Wolkenreise , entstand 1978 als Hintergrundmusik zu einem Schauspiel der Band, das seinerzeit die Konzerte eröffnete. The most famous piece of Eroc, the instrumental title clouds travel, created in 1978 as background music to a drama of the band that has opened the concerts. Nachdem es dann 1979 auf dem Album Eroc 3 erschienen war, entwickelte sich die eingängige, gelöste Melodie mit Akkordeon zum Radiohit (32 Wochen in den Airplay-Charts). Since then in 1979 the album was released Eroc 3, developed the catchy, melody with accordion resolved at radio (32 weeks in the airplay charts). Wolkenreise wurde als Single veröffentlicht und erreichte Platz 32 der deutschen Charts. Clouds travel was released as a single and reached the place 32 of the German charts. Es war der einzige Singleerfolg von Eroc oder Grobschnitt. It was the only single Eroc and the success of Grobschnitt.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:31am From: annie

does that mini ent- creature have a name?

Mon. 3/9/09 10:33am From: BillyJam

Mon. 3/9/09 10:33am From: Parq

Annie, I think there's a train that comes from the Warkwick area down into Hoboken. Email me off-board (get the address from my FB page) and I'll clue you in right straight.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:33am From: stingy d

i almost hate hearing music i like for the first time. there's much too much.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:34am From: pd360

still b/p - soon is all relative, I spoke with Caleb from BB about it last week. He said the recording is finished, its just up to Time-Lag to release it when they are ready.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:34am From: marty

Mon. 3/9/09 10:44am From: Hugo

Ah, Faust! Coming to town at the end of the month.

BTW, what's the cartoon? I presume it must be Belgian or French. Brussels is a great place for cartoons. You can find shops full of les bandes dessinées ...

Mon. 3/9/09 10:46am From: Carmichael

Good morning, BW and friendly others. Billy & Dusty's show last Friday was the funniest thing on radio in a loooooong time!

And this whole Faust fest on this station is wonderful too. Now, if you'd only treat Hawkwind with the same reverence ...

Mon. 3/9/09 10:50am From: Ike

Carmichael, agreed on Friday -- Billy Jam and Clay Pigeon were great together, but possibly even more hilarious was Bryce vs. Irwin earlier the same day. And Hawkwind gets lots of airplay here. I think Stan plays them often but he doesn't do a playlist usually.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:52am From: BSI

A Hawkwind a day is better 'n vitamins.

Mon. 3/9/09 10:53am From: Cecile

Scott plays lotsa Hawkwind.

I loved that Irwin kept trying to taunt Bryce, and Bryce kept agreeing with him. LOL!

Mon. 3/9/09 10:54am From: Cecile

Get up on the floor
We're going to boogie oogie oogie
until Billy and Benjamin can't boogie no more

Mon. 3/9/09 10:55am From: BSI

Bryce was on his best behavior that day, perhaps due to becoming one of the Adopted Ones...

Mon. 3/9/09 10:57am From: Cecile

the Chosen...

You adopted him, right?

Mon. 3/9/09 10:58am From: BSI

yep. and he has yet to learn how to go on the papers...

Mon. 3/9/09 10:59am From: Carmichael

Good to hear about Scott's superior music taste. I got a heavy dose of Hawkwind, Horslips and Thin Lizzy this weekend, as well as some Dread Zeppelin as a chaser.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:01am From: Pearly Sweets

Hawkwind for your heavy days. Gong for when its time to chill out.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:02am From: Cecile

Two words, BSI, puppy pads.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:02am From: Carmichael

I tried to like Gong, but they didn't take.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:03am From: BSI

...although, early Hawkwind mixes well with Camebert Electrique... add a dash of early Guru Guru and you've got a heady cocktail of psychic menace...

Mon. 3/9/09 11:05am From: annie

i'm not one for chatting, personally. but you should entreat the listeners.. music begets complacency.. talk, dammit!

Mon. 3/9/09 11:06am From: Cecile

some music makes me want to kill people.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:06am From: Pearly Sweets

Daevid Allen's Gong is always very enjoyable. When it became Pierre Moerlen's Gong, I stop following so much.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:07am From: BSI

Cecile: The puppy pads had a strange pheromone-like effect on the poor thing. I took photos of what happened but they were promptly seized by the DC police dept... Insectoid DJs are notoriously hard to train.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:08am From: Carmichael

My next band will be called Puppy Pads.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:09am From: Cecile

Mon. 3/9/09 11:38am From: marathon veteran

Steveroo, at the end of the marathon, all your pledges will be added up, and you will get an invoice for the total amount. That final amount, and not the amount of any individual pledge, will determine your swag level, installment-plan privileges and so forth. You could, for example, do 25 $15 pledges and get everything that comes with a single $375 pledge.

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Mon. 3/9/09 11:49am From: Carmichael

On WFMU and also at the local Burmese restaurant. Seriously, there's a Nepalese restaurant in town, and they play "modern" stuff like this all the time.

Not to mention the way over the top melodramatic Vietnamese pop genre.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:51am From: Jorge

A que venimos sino a caer :)

Mon. 3/9/09 11:51am From: Ike

Sadly, the really good Burmese restaurant in Jackson Heights closed. Burmese food is GREAT. There are some good ones in the D.C. area.

If anybody is holding back: Don't wait. For one thing, the chances of winning a prize are far better BEFORE this weekend and the big finale.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:51am From: stingy d

when he says he likes food a lot... he is talking about me. my name is certainly jonathan.

Ike, what are the good Burmese joints in DC?

Mon. 3/9/09 11:54am From: Glenn L

Hi y'all, was just browsing the comments from earlier.

Stingy D, FYI - the PATH only accepts LIMITED Metrocards.

Annie, if you take the Metro North to GCT you should get the 4 or 5 subway down to Fulton st., get out and walk the 2 blocks west to the WTC Path. Way easier than walking from GCT to Penn Station & then taking 2 Path trains.

Mon. 3/9/09 11:54am From: Sean Daily

So what the artist is trying to convey is that he sees the girls in their mee-nee skirts? It's a very subtle theme...

Mon. 3/9/09 11:55am From: annie

The 1st hit single from Puppy Pads' album "Reconciled in Miami" will be "See the Girls From the Subway Grates". Look for it at a music store near you.
