The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, in all its "wisdom," never got around to inducting Procol Harum into its hallowed corridors. Shame on Jann Wenner and his cohorts for snubbing some of the best bands in the history of pop/rock music---- Procol Harum. Jethro Tull, Emerson. Lake and Palmer, King Crimson. There are others.....

I was thinking during Joe B.'s Good tribute show on Monday that to troll the FMU comments on a regular day is pretty pathetic, but to do so during a memorial/tribute is downright LOW.
Pay no mind to the disingenuous and attention hungry, and focus on the tunes, good times, and as is sadly often the case these days: the memories.

Another endorsement for C Jeff's statement. Almost every tribute show or set, I see at least one commenter say that they regret not knowing the artist previously but are grateful to have found them even if only after their death. Often that person is me!

I am not nearly as deeply steeped in the musical mysteries as many among the FMU community and am deeply grateful for how much I learn here each and every day -- and not at all least from efd and Joe B.

I went for Even If and Buzz Factory, Joe -- had a feeling!

@Handy: Thanks and I'll endorse your statement as well!

I learn something new with every FMU show I listen to, whether a tribute show or not! I'm sincerely grateful for that and give huge kudos to FMU DJs and all they've learned me!

My desktop keyboard is great for anything except typing quietly. It's a lot more fun than how my laptop keyboard has a few important keys no longer working because I don't feel like taking it apart see if the laptop keyboard has a bent cable/clip somewhere.

To add to the keyboard talk, the desktop I got about 9-10 months ago came with a new keyboard. It's been fine except for one little squeaking noise that happens and I cannot figure out what key (or combo of keys) that does it.
Avatar The Evan "Funk" Davies Show Hellraiser 2024 Swag For Life Member 1:48pm
karlward:

Figgsrock: here's what you do: get a steel hammer, four pounds or more. Then one good solid whack on each key. Not too hard though, just hard enough to drive a nail with one blow. Might take about a half hour to do it right. I guarantee the squeak will be long, long gone, and you'll feel much better.

What you said a bit earlier has been on my mind for some time: For most of this century, seens WFMU DJs have been saluting people who recently died. It's our cohort. I don't remember it being like that on WFMU in the 20th Century.
