Tue. 11/17/09 9:13am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Do you acknowledge the previous DJ as you change shifts, or is more of the "averted eyes in the subway" type of encounter?

Tue. 11/17/09 9:15am From: ?

Gotta watch it. They might have cooties.

Tue. 11/17/09 9:16am From: jason

ddgatgod that is a great question. i do acknowledge the DJ but I always worry about getting in their way ya know? so in that sense it is a bit like a NY subway encounter. But me and Scott McDowell have a nice moment when he stops by the new bin toward the end of his show. me and nachum bro down all the time. and if i can leave everything normalized at the end of the show, then i do an imaginary high5 w/ joe belock

I don't wanna end up Orthodox, God forbid!

DumD, back in the 80s, on Sunday nights, we were treated to the "John Schnall Nick Hill Transitional Moment", which consisted entirely of those two DJs saying "This is the John Schnall Nick Hill Transitional Moment."

Tom Hazelmyer owns a great chain of hip sports bars in Minneapolis now. Grumpy's. Only sports bar I know of that has had the Melvins play there every year. And Shag signings. And great tater tots!

Tue. 11/17/09 9:51am From: Luciano

Hello from Italy, Jason!
Hey, that's a Creation cover, isn't it?

Tue. 11/17/09 9:52am From: Cecile

it is, Luciano!

Tue. 11/17/09 9:57am From: Luciano

Reworked in such a noisy way, not that bad, indeed!
Didn't know these flies...

Tue. 11/17/09 9:58am From: paul from Sheffield, UK

Howdy folks.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:06am From: Cecile

they're a pretty cool late 80s/early 90s band.
Had very collectible singles for a while, but my favorite is Big Mod Hate Trip, which you could find for cheap for years. Tired and cold is such a great song.

Tom Hazelmyer ran Amphetamine Reptile records for years and now runs restaurants and sometimes an art gallery.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:08am From: nasok

so fresh and so clean

Tue. 11/17/09 10:11am From: Barney

Oh how I miss Grumpy's. Great beers (Bell's, Surly, etc.) and jukebox, and I think they even had a meat raffle at the Nordeast (where every corner has a bar and every bar ought to have a meat raffle) location.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:13am From: Cecile

they still have the meat raffle, Barney.
And they have a location in Roseville now.
It's doing gangbusters. I like DT best, near the Dome.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:13am From: north guinea hills

I love mos's use of the selda sample

Tue. 11/17/09 10:15am From: Billy Moe

God, spare us the garbage music by garbage people, please!

Tue. 11/17/09 10:16am From: Cecile

Jason, how are the powerpop comps at the Hyped 2 Death site?
Man, I think I need pretty much everything on that site.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:16am From: Luciano

thanks, Cecile!
Sounds interesting, I think I should "investigate" them :)
So focused I am on the 60s/70s, to have missed many nice things in the 80s/90s...

Tue. 11/17/09 10:16am From: jaypee

Good morning. I just want to take this opportunity to thank everyone at WFMU for the awesome locked-groove record I received in the mail yesterday. It has made my life complete. I play the record and raise up arms up to the infinite.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:17am From: marion

locked groove records: fun to demonstrate for houseguests who don't understand until you ask them to go ahead and play a track

Tue. 11/17/09 10:24am From: Cecile

Tue. 11/17/09 10:25am From: Cheri Pi

Tue. 11/17/09 10:56am From: stingy d

glad ya likes it. i got these photos of her being scared of me that i should probably do something with. she tore up the garbage and then she hid in the bath tub. it was remarkably cute.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:58am From: LizGig

That's a happy looking dog.

Tue. 11/17/09 10:59am From: LizGig

Stingy, that helmet photo's a keeper. That should be your avatar for all your social networking sites.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:14am From: jeff

Tue. 11/17/09 11:14am From: Cecile

puppy laugh! BSI, your Gomez is a handsome chap!
Lots of pitty/staffy love from 'FMUers

Tue. 11/17/09 11:15am From: Parq

BSI, I like the one before it even better, the one with the face on the floor and the "For chrissakes dad" caption. J'regret, I don't have any links to online photos of my knuckleheads.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:16am From: jeff

i think that's what they were saying. see you later jason!

Tue. 11/17/09 11:18am From: BSI

thanks Park/Cecile - he's a handful. almost 3 yrs old and over 76 pounds. ... I can spend a whole day staring at him and laughing my fool head off.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:21am From: Cecile

WOW
Urinals cover!

Tue. 11/17/09 11:22am From: jason

urinals covers are the hot new

Tue. 11/17/09 11:22am From: Cecile

he's a goofball. A lovely goofball.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:22am From: stingy d

i lke the bsi doggie capture rotation flick

Tue. 11/17/09 11:22am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

I never understood the test of the EBS. I mean, is there any chance the tone won't play when you press the button? Even if it did, you could just mimic the sound with your voice? Perhaps it is just getting people to associate the sound with "emergency." I think saying "this is an emergency" may have more impact, however.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:22am From: BTH

Ah, the Urinals, I know it from YLT covering the song

Tue. 11/17/09 11:23am From: laura

My question is, has the Emergency Broadcast System ever actually been used in an Actual Emergency?

Tue. 11/17/09 11:24am From: stingy d

oh jeez, dogs! gladys is 7. still bounds around like a mischevous puppy.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:28am From: Salat

Very weird that you just played Tilahoun Gessesse. I was perusing the world music section at my local library and picked out a Tilahoun Gessesse cd "Ethiopiques 17" because of the cover and loved the whole album. The song you played Lantchi Biye is my favorite from that album.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:28am From: BSI

Parq- sorry 'bout the typo. Head fulla puppies. Must be lunchtime.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:30am From: Cecile

Salat - that has happened to me a lot listening to 'FMU.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:30am From: jason

hey Salat, that's awesome! I wonder if my local library has some ethiopiques too...

Laura, good point. It would be much more exciting if there was an actual emergency

Tue. 11/17/09 11:31am From: Parq

Dum dum, what's really being tested is not on the air, it's the equipment that would link the station to the EBS if it really kicked in. Laura, yes it has, I remember it kicking in during a major storm warning some years back.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:34am From: Dum Dum Guy at the Gates of Dawn

Parq - thanks for the clarification.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:37am From: dc pat

so..more clarification: if there's an emergency, the EBS automatically hijacks the radio signal and starts telling people to hit the fallout shelters?

Tue. 11/17/09 11:42am From: laura

Did it kick in during the 9/11 attacks?

Tue. 11/17/09 11:49am From: stingy d

it's been there since 'nam, and yes the emergency broadcast system runs the world.

your daily rumors have been a test of the stingy dogcast system.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:50am From: stingy d

haha! c-rayz! i was in a bar with him one time... he has the best pick-up lines. pause.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:51am From: laura

So, stingy d, this means you want to get back to puppies?

Tue. 11/17/09 11:53am From: laura

Hey, this song is kind of nice.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:53am From: new EBS wording

had this been a real, dirty-bomb type of emergency, this warning tone would have been followed by important information, such as us inviting you to stick your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:54am From: Ike

Laura, no it was not used during 9/11 because they didn't want to panic everybody. Or something. I think it's intended for stuff that's clearly spreading to additional areas and not localized, e.g. lava flows, oncoming hurricanes, alien viruses in the water supply, aliens threatening to blow up Seattle, etc.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:54am From: stingy d

nah. it means i'm spreading rumors. who was that other rapper? alaska? coudn't have been,

Tue. 11/17/09 11:55am From: khaleed sheik mohammed

inishallah!

Tue. 11/17/09 11:56am From: stingy d

here goes my favorite c-rayz jawn

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69ll8Nttjc0&feature=related

Tue. 11/17/09 11:58am From: laura

Crikey. In the event that lava begins to flow into the NY Tri-State Area, I hope I have the radio on. JUST IN CASE.

Tue. 11/17/09 11:58am From: stingy d

that mr chop record is all stuff that re-samples some of pete rock's greatest hits.
