how come everything always reminds me of make-up?

Mon. 5/4/09 12:03pm From: dc pat

you know, he sounds a lot like Svenonius though..

Mon. 5/4/09 12:04pm From: dc pat

shit! stingy and I are on the same UFO!!

Mon. 5/4/09 12:06pm From: dc pat

Svenonius is pretty freakin influential. He doesn't get a lot of credit though. This sounds like him too.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:09pm From: stingy d

ha! nice call pat! and i agree wholeheartedly. he da bes.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:13pm From: Pearly Sweets

i was once in a band called pterodactyl rose...sure people think the t rex or the brontosaurus...but they tend to ignore the flying dinasaurs when naming a band

Mon. 5/4/09 12:21pm From: Pearly Sweets

I could drive to this Real Estate song.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:21pm From: dc pat

by the way, just saw chain and the gang here in dc and S was a the top of his game. Great show.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:22pm From: Pearly Sweets

Aw... that is a bummer that they didn't record it that way. I really liked the sound of it.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:22pm From: Chris

Man I was wondering about that Chain and the Gang thing, Couldn't make it. Comet must have been packed.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:25pm From: dc pat

packed indeed. I couldn't move.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:25pm From: Pearly Sweets

Aw... it is still adorable at regular speed!

Mon. 5/4/09 12:26pm From: ta da

the 45 ver was better

Mon. 5/4/09 12:27pm From: Joe Steele

Me thinks I shoulda been paying more attention.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:28pm From: Pearly Sweets

That I'll agree too, if just that it was more spacy with the chipmunk vocals.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:28pm From: Pearly Sweets

But regular speed was also a treat. So I'll be keeping an ear out for other real estate songs.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:28pm From: Andrew

Oh man King Khan was so good Saturday! I was dancin my tush off!

Mon. 5/4/09 12:29pm From: ta da

Mon. 5/4/09 12:30pm From: tim

Liz, Liz, LIZ! You've taken a powerful drug. Be assured, the effects will pass. Your arm is NOT a bloody stump.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:32pm From: Parq

[obediently] Thanks, mom.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:33pm From: mark

i'll take chaos theory over oracles anyday

Mon. 5/4/09 12:35pm From: mark

are you going to barcalona? anything exciting planned?

Mon. 5/4/09 12:40pm From: Liz B.

Hey everyone... yes, I'm heading to Barcelona to help with WFMU's broadcast at the Primavera Sound fest. Very exciting! Will be driving to the south of Spain afterwards to visit relatives.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:40pm From: stingy d

i keep smoking weed. so dippy.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:44pm From: Jamed Malad

Hello Ms. Berg!

Wanted to tell you i received your email! Thanks for taking the time to find that band for me. I have since contacted them myself. The when Mcgruff was king apparently has had their fair share of troubles as we all do. They assured me they would contact you to get some recordings heading your way, as well as send me copies!

Many thanks,

Jamed Malad Esq.

Mon. 5/4/09 12:45pm From: mark

Mon. 5/4/09 12:49pm From: ta da

if i planned a trip to spain id consult an oracle before i go

Mon. 5/4/09 12:50pm From: north guinea hills

I like the new shogun kunitoki stuff (and the old)

Mon. 5/4/09 12:52pm From: Leftover

Is this the organ break fron In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida?

Mon. 5/4/09 12:55pm From: north guinea hills

aztec camera obscura?

Mon. 5/4/09 12:59pm From: stingy d

has anyone seen this car commercial that rips off the beck song... hippy girl something or other? be on the lookout!

Mon. 5/4/09 1:00pm From: GP

If anyone here remembers that movie "Spinal Tap". I saw those guys this weekend on their "Unwigged and Unplugged" tour. They were pretty funny and played a bunch of stuff from all of their movies...anyway

Mon. 5/4/09 1:06pm From: ta da

remember spinal tap!?!?! i dont know how many times i watched that movie in high school.

Mon. 5/4/09 1:07pm From: ta da

well not actually in the school

Mon. 5/4/09 1:09pm From: owen

quite. i dont just remember spinal tap; could probably recite the entire film...

Mon. 5/4/09 1:12pm From: phillip2167

hey that was a rockin good song, but i dont know if it was druid perfume or king kahn and the shrines:(

Mon. 5/4/09 1:13pm From: GP

I was pleasantly surprised that they are all actually pretty good musicians. Christopher Guest was playing a Mandolin for a few songs. Harry Shearer also was playing upright bass and electric bass ( I guess not entirely "unplugged").

Mon. 5/4/09 1:17pm From: Parq

Mark, I have family by marriage in Santander, some in the city and some in the Entrambasaguas area. What part are you in? And I, too, am genetically imprinted with the dialog from "Spinal Tap".

Mon. 5/4/09 1:17pm From: ta da

not as funny but good was their satire of folk music - but cant remember the title

Mon. 5/4/09 1:18pm From: GP

"A Mighty Wind" was their folk song documentary

Mon. 5/4/09 1:23pm From: Marshall Stacks

Harry Shearer had some amusing pre-tour anecdotes on his show, Le Show. Le Show is worth a listen; I subscribe to the podcast.

Mon. 5/4/09 1:24pm From: ta da

ST much more funny than any ben stiller or judd (judge?) appatow(?)

Mon. 5/4/09 1:25pm From: ta da

uh oh, im becoming nostalgic....thank god liz's music keeps me rooted in the present

Mon. 5/4/09 1:31pm From: detroitdave

What is this?????? Sounds like "expletive used here". is the record skipping??

Mon. 5/4/09 1:32pm From: phillip2167

liz,please how about some indie, like broadcast or the magnetic fields?????

Mon. 5/4/09 1:32pm From: GP

Marshall Stacks, Thanks, I'll have to check it out.

Ta Da, 10-4 on that.

Mon. 5/4/09 1:36pm From: Marshall Stacks

See, nothing wrong with a little Steely Dan every now and then.

Mon. 5/4/09 1:41pm From: Bad Ronald

Somber Reptiles?

Mon. 5/4/09 1:45pm From: Parq

Sorry I just had a pizza, I'm from northern england and getting the ferry to Santander, I prefer cycling to flying, shame its expensive, my friends flying london to barca for £40 return...

Mon. 5/4/09 1:53pm From: Ike

Parq isn't from northern England and doesn't say "return" for "round-trip." Is that the mirror-universe bearded evil British Parq?

Mon. 5/4/09 1:56pm From: mb

Thanks for the OY Liz B.! I was pulling through the drive thru, cracking up. Grassy ass.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:04pm From: HotRod

Hey Liz! Did you go see King Khan this past weekend? They killed it at Maxwells this past Saturday night! :D

Mon. 5/4/09 2:07pm From: Parq

Ike, no, it's Mark, putting my name in the "name" space intead of making it the first word of the message. Like, if I had non-thinkingly put "Ike" in the name line. Mark, knowing how mountainous Cantabria is, I'm impressed by your biking through it.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:17pm From: Ike

Hey, anybody else been to the awesome Mexican/Latin food trucks at the Red Hook Ballfields on Saturdays and Sundays? They're amazing. I tried some great carne asada tacos, goat tacos, huarache, papas rellenos, loroco flower pupusas, tamarind drink, etc. etc. etc. We need food trucks like that in Newark.

This show keeps getting better and better, Liz! Wow.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:18pm From: Liz B.

Didn't make it out to see King Khan on Sat unfortunately... seen 'em before though, fun fun band to see live!

Mon. 5/4/09 2:20pm From: GP

Ike...shhhhhhhhh...hungry here.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:21pm From: Liz B.

Love the food at the Red Hook ballpark... Went there a few summers ago and bought something yummy from each cart! Ceviche for $5!

Mon. 5/4/09 2:24pm From: dc pat

Ike: eat the pig!

Man I love U.S. Girls

Mon. 5/4/09 2:26pm From: Parq

Second US Girls play today. Prompted me to go back and read Scott W''s blog post on them, or actually, on her. Pretty cool person.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:27pm From: Ike

This time, the ceviche was the only disappointing thing. Very cool chef Adeena Sussman figured that the easternmost truck added the lime juice beforehand, too early, instead of adding it at the time of purchase. But the second-from-easternmost truck was squeezing in lime when purchased, so it's probably better there. It's up to $7 now.

DC Punk, oh yeah, I had pork in my loroco flower and jalapeno pupusas.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:32pm From: GP

Parq, is that on Beware of the Blog? I heard US Girls (Megan) live on FMU but I don't remember which show.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:36pm From: Parq

GP, for the Girl that goes "boom" and Scott's adventure with same, see this and ye shall see all.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:38pm From: GP

Thanks Parq..IT police have me lock out of that site..I'll check it out at home.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:43pm From: dc pünk

I said eat the PIG! not pork..

Mon. 5/4/09 2:46pm From: E.L.

I freak out every time I hear this S.M. Dorsey HS track.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:47pm From: What!

GO TEAM GO! "What did you play in high school band"?
"Wha-wah pedal".

Mon. 5/4/09 2:51pm From: Woody

Hey Liz-

Great upbeat show for a gray day! I like this African calypso track in particular.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:51pm From: mark

yeah soz that was me, hmm, I've cycling over the pennines but there pretty pathetic to european hills, I'll probably get the train a bit of the way, if you buy a good bike (only £300) it ain't too bad

btw dunno when ur flying out but its the European Champions League final on the 27th, Barcalona will probably be in it, should be an interesting night if you like (proper) football, think I might sit in a spanish bar with a Man Utd shirt

Mon. 5/4/09 2:53pm From: What!

Anyone: please defeat any Spanish team, ever, at anything. Please.

Mon. 5/4/09 2:55pm From: mark

man utd will win for sure and england will win the 2010 world cup!
