Listener comments!

  2:59pm
?:

Nothing, such as not bother voting?
  3:03pm
Matt from Springfield:

But Irwin, you don't have to do anything to be a psycho! Strange powers, on the other hand, take years of skill to perfect.
  3:04pm
Clark Barr:

I doubt we will hear 3 hours of Chocolate City today...
  3:05pm
another old man:

Yeah, it's Irwin time. Need it today so bring it old pal.
  3:06pm
mike connor:

the oriiginal name of this band was Steve, Bob, and Rich.

they were from Kansas City.

wow.... this is a blast from the past.
  3:07pm
Matt from Springfield:

REALLY REALLY MAD!!!
  3:07pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

hittin' us early with the queen
  3:07pm
Reader Between the Lines:

Does the juxtaposition inherent in in the picture imply something about Stephin Merritt's sometimes inscrutable mental state?
  3:08pm
jeremy:

your petrid odor can peel off paint - lol
  3:09pm
Political Consultant:

Amanda for VP '12!!!!~~~~~
  3:10pm
Matt from Springfield:

AMANDA 20-12!!!
"Vote for me, or eat my pee!"
  3:10pm
Robert:

Duet or overdub?
  3:12pm
Matt from Springfield:

Overdub, courtesy of Jody's production.
Uhhhh, I would hope it isn't a duet. There is only ONE Lady - Amanda. If there were two, one would be the corresponding Anti-manda, which I hope doesn't exist in this dimension...
  3:15pm
Kurt:

Yes, I DO have a gun.
  3:15pm
Matt from Springfield:

Like this Vincent Malone! Almost a techno remix of a Guy Lombardo orchestra cover song!
  3:15pm
Matt from Springfield:

Maybe more of a Herb Alpert techno remix...
  3:17pm
Laura L:

The new Clientele is splendid--thanks, Irwin.
  3:24pm
Matt from Springfield:

Very cool new Clientele for sure, Laura!
Why is it a mini-LP, it has 8 songs. Some are only a minute but 26 mins easily makes an EP. Maybe they preferred "mini-LP" to "double-EP".
  3:36pm
jan:

I like "It came from You." maybe positive reinforcement might help.
  3:39pm
Matt from Springfield:

@jan: MB is always great, love it!
See Emily Play! Nice cover.
  3:49pm
Laura L:

I saw Drink Me, at Fez I think it was, with the Old Codger. Could it have been 1934? Nice boys they were.
  3:49pm
AnAnonymousParty:

Two Pink Floyd tunes (almost) from FMU in one day? Did the world stop spinning or something?
  3:53pm
Matt from Springfield:

I'd love to see MB live, have to see if he's coming to the DC area...
His events wouldn't be under-attended if we ALL crammed into the same show! (Or, if you play his music to your friends, make them go too!)
  3:57pm
Matt from Springfield:

"Pram,", with the comma eh? Are they the Plastic Ono Band's opening act?
  4:01pm
Denise in DC:

Matt, I never realized that your Springfield is the one in Virginia! I will gladly be one of the persons cramming an MB show, or any other show where DC-area 'FMU fans will gather.
  4:03pm
Matt from Springfield:

There's so many WFMU listeners from the area (yourself, dc pat, Chris from DC, etc) or grew up in the area, we should coordinate for DC-area shows of 'FMU favorites!
  4:05pm
Matt from Springfield:

Btw, DJ Julie once wondered which "Springfield" it was, I told her I was a few blocks over from Evergreen Terrace.
  4:09pm
AnAnonymousParty:

Is this the same Aztec Camera that did the cover of VH's 'Jump'?
  4:09pm
Irwin:

the ONLY Aztec Camera
  4:11pm
Mike East:

I consider it a tragedy that I don't own any Roky Erickson. I saw that documentary about him last year. That dude is no bullshit. I need to remedy this situation as soon as I have some extra cash.
  4:21pm
marq:

I am listening to the show today live. feels good. better than archived at another time and day. the thing about the archives rather than live, though, is that you can dedicate the time to pay attention to the whole show. listening live may miss some things. glad there is a playlist.
  4:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Irwin: Know anything about Tienerkoor? That was to the tune of Cliff Richard's "Congratulations" (a Eurovision song), and at first I thought they were singing the German birthday chant "Hoch soll Sie leben", Long May You Live. I think that version is Dutch.
  4:23pm
Matt from Springfield:

@marq: Better still, listen live with enjoyment (and chat with the wonderful listener community!), and then backtrack to parts you missed in the Archives, or listen to a great or missed show. In a perfect world I would have time for both!
  4:34pm
marq:

I don't often get a chance to listen to most of the shows I like live. Maybe at some point I can afford an Iphone and be able to listen to wfmu all over the place. The ham radio signal only comes in at certain times of the day and it is hard to lug that thing around and also find the electricity for it.
  4:38pm
The Clash:

We were one-finger music. Guess which?
  4:40pm
Font of Wikipedia:

"Frankie "Half Pint" Jaxon (February 3, 1895 - 1944 ?[1]) was an African American vaudeville singer, female impersonator, stage designer and comedian, popular in the 1920s and 1930s."..."although according to Allmusic he lived in Los Angeles until 1970."
  4:41pm
Marc in Liverpool:

The iPad OS is getting updated soon, so I'll be able to use the app to stream and multitask.
  4:44pm
Jesus H Krist...:

Please pass this record on to the smash-a-thon...
  4:45pm
Marc in Liverpool:

he sounds like Robbie Williams.
  4:51pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

more drums! more drums!
  4:52pm
CW:

More cowbell!
  5:03pm
ron:

We're listening!!
  5:03pm
Peanut Gallery:

Rock and/or roll, I believe...
  5:04pm
Joe Bacon:

Not true, Irwin, We love you ☺
  5:04pm
Oreck:

You have a gentle hand, Irwin.
  5:05pm
Matt from Springfield:

I've got enough trouble rockin' out to Irwin while pretending to work, now the comments section is feeling neglected?

All right, comments section, but you're going to be getting a lot of pseudonyms and in-jokes as well! Can't chat with you as myself all the time you know!
  5:06pm
ducky medwick:

i hate you comments section. you make my skin crawl. go away.
  5:10pm
Hanson:

Careful what you say, ducky: if you ignore something, it will just go away...
  5:11pm
Peanut Gallery:

During a USO tour by a number of baseball players in 1944, Joe "Ducky" Medwick was among several individuals given an audience by Pope Pius XII. Upon being asked by the Pope what his vocation was, Medwick replied, "Your Holiness, I'm Joe Medwick. I, too, used to be a Cardinal."
  5:12pm
ducky:

not to mention a celibate geek, likewise!
  5:13pm
Peanut Gallery:

Ha!
  5:15pm
Matt from Springfield:

This is a cooooooool demo...at the opening riff I thought it was going to be a cover of the Zombies "She's Not There".
  5:17pm
Jandek:

Not nearly ugly enough yet, grasshoppah.
  5:18pm
huh:

Why does Wikipedia say:
Tandyn Almer (born July 30, 1942 in Hennepin County, Minnesota) is a musician, composer, lyricist, and record producer, most famous for writing the song "Along Comes Mary", the 1966 hit by the Association.
???
  5:19pm
?:

Please god!! No more Amanda!!!
  5:20pm
Joe Bacon:

Ah, a second helping of Amanda!
  5:20pm
David:

The more I hear of it, "Empires and Fifth Dimension Perspective" is Amanda's Rubber Soul.
  5:20pm
huh:

and who is this Amanda and where can we find her?
  5:21pm
huh:

is this available on 8-track?
  5:21pm
Matt from Springfield:

I and others probably have wondered, Jandek: have you ever thought of collaborating with this performer, Amanda?
  5:21pm
David:

LMAO! "Let's JUMP... on a parking meter!"
  5:21pm
Aharon:

Amanda, you haunt my dreams!
  5:22pm
Jandek:

Amanda, alas, is way too instinctually talented to fit my um style.
  5:22pm
David:

What the hell did Amanda's parents think?
  5:22pm
Matt from Springfield:

@David: with this sped-up tape and guitar solo, "Fashion from Limbo" sounds like Amanda's Tomorrow Never Knows.
  5:22pm
David:

Matt, you;'re RIGHT! LOL
  5:23pm
J5:

Is this Amanda like retarded or something? No seriously, I want to know.
  5:23pm
Peteski:

What did I miss?
  5:24pm
Jandek:

@ Peteski: Nothing. Everything.
  5:24pm
David:

She's a straight up genius.
  5:24pm
huh:

More like a savant every day
  5:25pm
Flindar:

Yea, she's a tard man...
  5:25pm
Matt from Springfield:

Brilliant segue, Irwin!
@Jandek: I suppose that you feel like going "against" any type of grain then! Even when the grain is beyond the norm.
  5:25pm
David:

I need her on my iPod. Really really bad.
  5:26pm
Jandek:

I'm just totally clueless. Don't overthink it.
  5:26pm
Matt from Springfield:

Behold, David: the latest Amanda convert and Fan Club member.
  5:28pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Jandek: Whatever you're doing, keep doing it.
You know, Irwin needs 52 new albums and mailers--I noticed his office is missing them. Be sure to send Irwin some.
  5:29pm
Jandek:

Don't doubt me, dude. He needs more clutter to vacuum.
  5:34pm
Stevil:

Amanda is a modern day Capt. Beefheart
  5:34pm
David:

People that do not like Amanda are extremely suspicious. I think they hate America. They hate our freedom.
  5:36pm
Matt from Springfield:

Diggin' this new bed music! What is it?
  5:36pm
rosh:

Amanda AND a creepy Fernando cover song,where's a fainting couch when u need it?
  5:39pm
marq:

still not really listening to the show live but I have it playing on my ham. caught bits and peices. busy getting ready for the winter. it comes earlier than daylight savings time in vermont.
  5:40pm
Jandek:

Fling *my* CDs from the top of the Brill Building!
  5:43pm
marq:

irwin's voice sounds funny on the ham radio freq.
  5:45pm
adamp:

marq, how do you receive it on ham radio, and is it difficult, expensive, prohibitive in any way? thanks!
  5:46pm
marq:

Can't tell you.
  5:46pm
Listener John:

If anyone is interested, Amanda has a MySpace page. And there are some videos of her on youtube (maybe somebody mentioned that above). I been trying to figure out if she is the same person as Amanda Bynes, a young comic who used to be on something called "The Amanda Show." As you can tell, I've been doing random interweb searches . . .
  5:49pm
Listener John:

Apropos of Caetano Veloso: Did you all ever notice that all the sophisticated people listen to Brazilian music? It seems that way to me.

NB: I can't tell a samba from a bossa nova either . . .
  5:51pm
Matt from Springfield:

@LJ: As a sophisticated person, I can tell you I was once really into old bossa nova stuff when I was about 20.
  5:52pm
Brasileiro:

Bossa nova was a certain version or offshoot of traditional samba, just like rock has all kinds of offshoot genres. This is a mournful lyric about a mysterious woman, who'd guess huh?
  5:57pm
Mike East:

This has been an excellent show, Irwin. Now its time that I catch the 194 back to Jersey. Good evening to you all!
  5:59pm
Matt from Springfield:

"I drank an ocean of gin, what a sin"
I love gin--I have to remember to play this next time I'm drinking it!

A splendid time was had by all Irwin!
  6:01pm
Listene John:

Another great program. Thanks, Irwin!
