So far, so good!

Wed. 5/20/09 3:14pm From: Keili

When we are in the car and have bad reception, the other station that filters in is classical. So this is what WFMU sounds like in the car.

Wed. 5/20/09 3:17pm From: DJ Mama

Is that synth sample Underworld? I know that song. I can't think of who it is though... anyone?

Wed. 5/20/09 3:22pm From: ovid

Wed. 5/20/09 3:51pm From: Chris Martin

Wed. 5/20/09 3:54pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

no, grandma loved him dearly

Wed. 5/20/09 3:54pm From: Parq

This gee-tar/banjo thing would have sounded better if our stalwart principals had done it on sax and accordion.

Wed. 5/20/09 3:55pm From: Parq

Add Irwin on drums, and we're talking what Juniper's daddy would call a Number One Hit.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:03pm From: AnAnonymousParty

Hey Irwin,

WFMU's signal has already reached out to 50 light years by now.

Which means the inhabitants of Alpha Centauri have been scratching their heads for 46 years already.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:07pm From: Irwin

I had a thing for Grandma. Something about her record collection.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:09pm From: Dead Corporate Eyes

she spoke kindly, and often, of you

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm From: Irwin

"Widowmaker," she called me. With gratitude.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm From: annie

dcpat, i saw that... did irwin give the lowdown? i was out of earshot.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:12pm From: Joe

this song is too poppy
this hat is too slick
I wonder what my listeners will think of this?
Man, I love hip-hop
my bling sure does shiiiiine

things that never cross Irwin's mind

Wed. 5/20/09 4:13pm From: mb

Thanks for the Marco Benevento! Woo to the Hoo!

Wed. 5/20/09 4:16pm From: Parq

I bet the Old Codger would have found Grandma a saucy "younger" temptress.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:18pm From: honda

go on and help the time pass on by.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:25pm From: BSI

Wed. 5/20/09 4:27pm From: to a MR. IRWIN

Wed. 5/20/09 4:27pm From: jeff-a-chusetts

Irwin, is amanda related to you? i'm trying to piece together some sort of reality to this mystique that is....amanda.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:28pm From: Feral Cat

Amanda's my hero.

Wed. 5/20/09 4:32pm From: just a guy

Another version of Nick Haeffner's "Furious Table" can be heard on the self-titled album by Clive PiG and the Hopeful Chinamen. (Nick Haeffner was a member of the Hopeful Chinamen.) The album doesn't appear to be in print, but Clive Pig has a web page here: http://www.clivepig.co.uk/
