Surveillance with avocado or surveillance with bacon?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:04pm
common:

avocado surveillance, please!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:06pm
Ike:

You really have to watch those avocados. They're mostly from Mexico, and you know what that means. When Mexico sends its avocados, they're not sending their best. They're sending avocados that have lots of problems. They're bringing drugs. They're bringing crime. They're rapists. And some, I assume, are good avocados.

@ Robert--it's inexplicable; a deli in the West Village put that sign up on the side of their building and I snapped photo of it. All I can say with any certainty is I would not do anything weird in front of those sandwiches.

W. Neil: I read somewhere they're a cross between Zappa and Sun Ra. That seems apt.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:24pm
Irwin:

And what do Zappa and Sun Ra have in common? Tom Wilson.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member 3:27pm
Alison Porchnik:

And Tom Wilson loved sandwiches. Full circle.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:30pm

And Tom Wilson's favorite color was orange -- like the meat in them samwitches.

This Stephen Fierce is really, really good. Thank you. I vaguely remember hearing it before, but I have no idea when or where.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:35pm
Irwin:

Phat: Been airing a lot, it's new (OK, I lied). Probably hard to find, it doesn't even have a bar code. But some great stuff. He was influenced by R. Stevie Moore and Ariel Pink.
  3:38pm
phat:

Ah, that makes sense. This Humphreys and Keen is really good, too!
  3:39pm
Wild Neil:

Dear Irwin-I was luck enough to see Su Ra at that nighclub that used to be in Hoboken. I tell him "you are better than the Grateful Dead.". And he goes "Yeah, we are the "Grateful LIVING"...

Ahh, ok. That makes sense. Thanks!

I didn't get that. I didn't know to get it. No one told me "you must get this".

That Clay track was funny but it made me very uncomfortable. It was very Bob and Ray or Vic and Sade.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:20pm

That was like a non-insulting, non-condescending, actually funny version of Prairie Home Companion. So, not like Prairie Home Companion at all, really.
