WFMU: The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from September 29, 2023

Listener comments!
	🥁 8:58pm Aitch: I was trying to cheer up?
	8:59pm Robm: hello fellow listeners
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: Sorry, Aitch!
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: Hi Aitch! Hi Robm! Hi everyone!
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: I think my opening set might give everyone aural and cultural whiplash.
	9:00pm ultradamno: Rich! Breaker-Breakers!
	9:00pm ironybread: now adjusting neck brace.
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: hello rich, people...
	9:02pm Dean: Schwitters? I saw/heard an exhibit of his stuff at Berkeley several years ago.
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: Hi everyone! Good to see you all here!
	9:04pm Franco Twinkie: Howdy Rich and...
	9:04pm Robm: hey rich was kind if insane around here with all the rain
	9:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Robm @9:04 What horror did you see/experience?
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Hi Franco! Hi Dean! Hi ironybread! Hi ultradamno! Hi tom tom! Hi Rich In Washington! Hi everyone!
	9:05pm chresti: Hi Rich and dads!
	9:06pm Yvang: Hi Rich and broken radio friends!
	9:06pm Dean: NYC's a mess, I'll guess. Welcome to civilization.
	9:06pm Robm: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:05 hearing that some subways got flooded and jfk got 9 inches of rain
	🥁 9:06pm WR: ↳ Song: "Burning Airlines Give You So Much More" by "Eno" This sounds muted. And did anyone else hear those "hello hello hellos" or something cutting into my Bluetooth speaker?
	9:06pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:06pm Robm: ↳ Dean @9:06 dean you can say that
	9:07pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @9:06 yes but ok now
	9:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Backwater" by "Meat Puppets" Love this sooooo much!
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: I have never played post-SST Puppets on WFMU. I checked.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: or anywhere else as far as I know
	9:08pm Dean: I'm going to lodge a complaint. FMU gives due props to Meat Puppets, but few to Claw Hammer.
	9:09pm Dean: The only Meat Puppets I have is the first album and the "Big Car" single with a pen drawing by...somebody?
	9:10pm tom tom the pipers son: eating a raw garlic sandwich to get rid of cold... tough going
	9:10pm ultradamno: Damon Bostrom art on the In A Car ep...peak of the band IMO
	9:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:08 I never saw the Meat Puppets post SST, but I like hamburger stand parking lot boogie aspect just fine
	9:10pm Dean: Is the sandwich raw, or the garlic?
	9:11pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:10 I see, you smooshed In A Car and Big House...
	9:11pm Dean: Saw Metallica once at the Whisky, with Mustaine (way better than Hammet). They were fantastic, and then what happened?
	🥁 9:11pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:10 I had pizza yesterday on which I put lots of minced raw garlic.
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:10 Too High To Die catches them right after their awkward ZZ Top worship phase.
	9:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:10 garlic is raw w/ butter, remedy worked once before... raw sandwich?
	9:12pm Dean: Thanks, ultradomo! You are exactly right, and I my suspicion was high that I'd done something of the sort even as I submitted it!
	9:12pm Dean: "I my" = "my"
	9:13pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:12 I my I, rasta fari?
	9:13pm ultradamno: David Thomas is a ZZ Top worshiper, maybe a secret post-punk influence.
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: I have never played Metallica on a radio show or DJ set until now.
	9:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @9:11 ah, hope was good, i can't get good pizza...
	9:14pm ultradamno: I saw offshoot Megadeth once, they were not so great. Slayer saved the night.
	9:14pm Dean: You know, raw sandwich. Like, sandwich, but raw.
	🥁 9:14pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:13 first few were good
	9:14pm Dean: Lars is such a subpar drummer...
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: I attended a Megadeth show but was only there for openers Cro Mags and Motorhead. We left after Motorhead and I was MEGA-DEAF!
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:14 oh, i don't know, but it made me laugh...;)
	9:15pm Androu B.: Good Evening, Rich & disrepaired radio owners! As I mentioned on Hour Of Crap, news broke earlier today that Las Vegas PD finally caught the guy that shot Tupac. Turns out it was an inside job, just as one conspiracy theory had it.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:14 Lars drums like all the other instruments are there to support a drummer.
	9:15pm chresti: Something Marty might play
	9:16pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:14 I wish their set had been so thoughtfully positioned when I saw them. Alice In Chains and Anthrax also played, meh to both
	9:16pm chresti: the Metallica
	9:16pm Dean: Lars = absence of swing He has no concept of "music"
	9:16pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:11 The last time I saw them was right after Up On the Sun. It surprised me after seen them in their thrash stage several times. I think their evolution was good and natural.
	🥁 9:16pm Aitch: One day they'll be as big as Hammered Satin
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: Hi chresti! Hi Androu!
	9:17pm northguineahills: ↳ chresti @9:16 is that like The ohio state?
	9:18pm chresti: I'm late to any Metallica
	9:18pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @9:16 You haven't seen him play "Ace Of Spades" though! (Search it on YouTube.)
	9:19pm Dean: But I have to say that when I saw them at the Whisky, opening for Saxon, I was duly blown away by their extremely hard work. They looked 16 to me, though they weren't, but damn, they wanted to entertain the audience, and that they did.
	9:22pm Dean: "Nothing has to make sense, does it?" That makes sense.
	9:23pm Scott_Oz: G'day Rich & Broken! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:23pm Dean: Agreed, re: Cliff Burton. I'd even go further. They lost the spark when they booted Mustaine.
	9:23pm pot8o: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 hey! did you get your account back?
	9:24pm Dean: I'm eager for dead guest appearances.
	9:25pm Scott_Oz: ↳ pot8o @9:23 I did mate!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 GREAT SCOTT! It's Scott!
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: also, hi pot8o!
	9:26pm pot8o: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:25 congrats! did you ever figure out what happened?
	9:26pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Clippety Clop" by "Syd Dale" Clippety Clop would make a swell soundtrack to perusing the Blue Chip Stamp catalog.
	🥁 9:26pm WR: I miss Eric Kilkenny's Medium Cool Sheena show. Guess I can revisit it in the archives. wfmu.org... I'm curious what he has been up to.
	9:27pm ultradamno: Crass has been adding a bunch of back catalog stuff to their bandcamp lately...RP's Farce ep, Songs Of Love, Bullshit Detector comps..
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @9:26 Funny you should mention!
	9:28pm Robm: ↳ WR @9:26 wonder what happened to his show?
	9:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:26 That track was used on a really weird children's show that played locally in my town when I was a kid.
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ Robm @9:28 It was his choice. I'm sure Mr Fab would welcome him back if he wants to do more.
	9:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Robm @9:28 He wanted to focus on creating music and doing a weekly show made it difficult.
	9:30pm Androu B.: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:25 G'day Scottso!😎👊🍻🌏🎶🎧🎶
	9:31pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:30 ahh that explains it rich, thanks
	9:32pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice/Cosmetic Plague" by "Rudimentary Peni" crass.bandcamp.com...
	9:32pm Rich in Washington: one of these bands is not like the other
	9:32pm northguineahills: the last three selections are new to me (not sure how that is possible (although i'm familar w/ crass & riot city recs...)
	9:32pm Robm: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 glad you got your account back
	9:33pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:32 howdy NGH
	9:33pm Scott_Oz: ↳ pot8o @9:26 I did mate, but I did the detective work or I'd still banned.
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:33 You got banned? For realz?
	9:34pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Androu B. @9:30 Mate!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:34pm ironybread: hardcore is good food
	9:34pm Androu B.: ↳ pot8o @9:26 You can follow up on it here: https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/132180 The whole thing was resolved during this show.
	9:35pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice/Cosmetic Plague" by "Rudimentary Peni" Bob Schick of Honor Role (then of Battered Youth) turned me onto this record. It turned out to be kind of divisive. I remember a lot HC people making faces and saying "well, the comics are rad"....which is kind of odd now, since they don't too dissimilar in approach to the nearby and rather popular Die Kreuzen...
	9:36pm tom tom the pipers son: again off topic, but my deluxe honey bottle has a sphincter where the honey comes out so that when you have bottle upside down, you're not spilling honey all over until you squeeze it.... details that matter when you are ill...
	9:36pm northguineahills: ↳ Robm @9:33 robm!
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 I used to roadie for Honey Sphincter. A bunch of assholes.
	9:37pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Treat You Like Shit" by "Exploited" Now reminded of the Merry Crassmas cover gag which announced a contest in which a winner got an Exploited single and the loser got two Exploited singles (not to mention them slagging Crass on their live record....)
	9:37pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 is the bottle a bear doing a headstand?
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: wait I want a rewrite on that joke.
	9:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:37 literal lol...
	9:38pm pot8o: ↳ Androu B. @9:34 thanks! really should listen to that show some day, same with kitten sparkles
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:37 I still have my OG issue of that record. Fucking hilarious, the Exploited slam and all.
	9:38pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:34 Yep! Instead of the troll in a Suzy chat. But when I pointed out the error Ken un banned me
	9:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:37 not a bear...:(
	9:38pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:37 only a figurative lol for me 😉
	9:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:38 hmmm, i'll have to think about that one...
	9:41pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:38 NGH just saw what you wrote last night, we would all take a bullet for you
	9:41pm Scott_Oz: Going into lurk mode now cos I'm on a dodgy phone . 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻
	9:41pm ultradamno: ...wait second prize was one Exploited single, third was two...first size was Bathsalts. I remember GBH and Kraut talking down Crass when I saw them too
	9:42pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 Good to see you, Scott! Stay out of trouble ;)
	9:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 i thought it was b/c you're having a munted afternoon!
	9:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Robm @9:41 thanks, man!
	9:42pm Robm: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 bummer scott
	9:42pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:42 your welcome amigo
	9:43pm Scott_Oz: ↳ northguineahills @9:42 That too mate! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:43pm Robm: ↳ Androu B. @9:34 the listmind works again
	9:44pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Freedom From What" by "The Sears" the roebucks always get 2nd billing...
	9:44pm ironybread: hi Scott hi Aitch
	9:45pm Robm: ↳ pot8o @9:38 echo beach is a kick ass show
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:44 There was a punk band called The Wards in the 80s so there's that.
	9:45pm ultradamno: It pays to comb that beach
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Robm @9:45 It really is. I seldom miss it even if I can't be in the chat.
	9:46pm northguineahills: when i was in gainesville, it felt like nyc, as mostly everything is walkable (rarely got in a car). we were walking a good 4-6 miles a day...
	9:46pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:45 great bunch of people there too
	9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:45 there should be wfmu based band called 'monty and the wards'
	9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Where There's A Will There's A Way" by "Discharge" gotta dig the artwork....
	9:48pm pot8o: unfortunately i haven't listened to the sheena stream as much i probably should, doesn't help that a lot of the really cool shows are in conflicting timeslots (miss mei's show vs tony coulter & fabio, for example)
	9:48pm Dean: Part of me wishes artists would have ignored Bush and Thatcher. They weren't worth the attention.
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @9:48 yeah, my favorite sheena shows are in conflict w/ my favorite gtds shows. I either simulisten to both streams or go back and forth...
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:48 what about kissinger?
	9:49pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:47 although thatcher not quite right... too young looking or something
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:48 Yeah, there are some heartbreaking schedule conflicts, to be sure.
	9:50pm Dean: Kissinger? A lovely man. Astute.
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:49 knowyourmeme.com...
	9:52pm Dean: Real punk never went anarcho. Punk ended in '79. Period.
	9:53pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:49 rich now that wreck your own adventure is on the drummer stream, it’s hard because i like radio ravioli, but i choose wendy because at least i hear cursing on the internet only streams, plus less trolls
	9:53pm ironybread: www.yelp.com...
	9:54pm Scott_Oz: ↳ ironybread @9:44 G'day mate! Been a while. 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:54pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @9:53 ha, nice!
	9:55pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Where There's A Will There's A Way" by "Discharge" Poster I have with this artwork from when I saw them mastodon.social... Canadian tux I used to wear mastodon.social... Also mastodon.social...
	9:56pm ultradamno: I recommend El Conde on Netflix for a hilarious revisiting of the iron madge
	9:56pm northguineahills: @rich: this show is hitting so deep, i'll have to dig up later....
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:56 Later ngh! Thanks for stopping by!
	9:57pm ultradamno: Real punk ended when Punk's Not Dead was first performed
	9:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:57 oh, i ain't going anywhere.... just pointing out the metaphorical places i'll have to take myself after midnight..
	9:59pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:58 Oh nice! Glad you're in a better location, btw...
	9:59pm tom tom the pipers son: zombie punk began with green day, remember the hoopla before they appeared on snl
	10:01pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:59 back in orlando. going to nyc next week for a week. (i was in gaineville for 5 days. got to see that only 38% of vinyl collection, and 45% of my cd collection still exists. moving it to a friend's new storage space organized so when i move move to nyc, i won't actually have to be there in person)
	10:02pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:59 my crackpot social theory was that Lollapalooza was like the Wild West Shows of the late 1800s, where it brought punk exhibit style to all these suburban kids in arenas. It was totally neutered and watered down for mass consumption. And all these punk artists were getting old and tired of touring in a shitty van for pocket change.
	10:03pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "The Restaurant Hot Sauce" i always mixed this track up with brother louie
	10:03pm ultradamno: Then came Warped to work in the skaters
	10:03pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:59 i dunno, punk in the non-west is still a thing (see some of the nyege nyege recs examples from example [prolly one of the most eclectic record labels {of mostly african artists}])
	10:03pm tom tom the pipers son: sounds right a sort of mournful louie louie liked it
	10:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:02 most of the bands i saw live in lollapalooza were 'recent' (last four years or less). of course, i camped out by the second stage (i was 17, when i was 18 it got cancelled by TS)
	10:05pm Dean: I'm kind of amazed that folks even paid attention to Lollapalooza. What was the attraction?
	10:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @10:05 It was mainly geared towards kids who suddenly heard about punk and/or lived 100 miles from a town that had a scene.
	10:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:03 uh-huh, i can see that, but only vaguely aware of nyege nyege
	10:07pm ultradamno: I never understood why people wished they could have been at Woodstock....it's looked like a drag.
	10:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @10:05 it was the first non-local concert i was allowed to attend by my parents (i come from a fundy household). i had to cut my hair. i was my friends' designated driver ) honestly, i was there to see j mascis, and to hear a bunch of random indie bands on the second stage.
	10:08pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:06 nyegenyegetapes.bandcamp.com
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:07 rock festivals - like cruise ships - look like my idea of hell on earth.
	🥁 10:09pm Aitch: Festivals and arena shows, my idea of hell
	10:09pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 yeah, i haven't been back to one since. once I was went to uni, i hit all scenes all at once....
	10:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:08 thanks, bookmarked that.
	10:10pm Rich in Washington: I did enjoy NXNW and No Fest here in Portland but they were in multiple venues across town. No meandering among a herd of sweaty cretins.
	10:10pm northguineahills: ↳ Aitch @10:09 last arena show, the cure '96...(and it killed) /i rarely have gone to shows to venues that can host 300+, unless i can get in for free....
	🥁 10:13pm Aitch: 3 hours of Steamed Hams. Why happened to Nick the Bard?
	10:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:13 LOL
	🥁 10:14pm Aitch: ↳ northguineahills @10:10 Gorillaz last year with my girls, 20,000 people. Tooooo many people, but the show was great.
	10:15pm ultradamno: I vote Flamin' Groovies version for #1
	10:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:14 Oh nice!
	🥁 10:17pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie (At The Royal Albert Hall In London)"... Yes, a classic.
	10:18pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "The Kingsmen" Mary Wing, did she take over, doing her 3OK
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 ...and Motörhead used to do one on a cruise ship www.vice.com...
	10:18pm northguineahills: ↳ Aitch @10:13 why is the important question....
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:18 Oh I know. It sounded ghastly.
	10:19pm ultradamno: Mikkey Dee: We Will Never Re-Form Motörhead with Some “Idiot” Replacing Lemmy www.yahoo.com... This seems to open the potential for legal non-idiots to apply
	10:19pm Dean: Zappa sounds almost like Jonathan Richman. What up?
	10:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @10:19 Probably before some asshole pushed him off the stage, which crushed his larynx and dropped his voice an octave. No lie.
	10:21pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:20 faroutmagazine.co.uk...
	🥁 10:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "Plastic People" by "The Mothers Of Invention" First time to hear this, fun.
	10:21pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Plastic People" by "The Mothers Of Invention" it's antecedent, but there's a vaclav havel joke in here...
	10:21pm northguineahills: ↳ WR @10:21 what WR said...
	10:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Swamp Rats" This is maybe my favorite Louie Louie.
	10:23pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:15 Then maybe Sonics and Stooges (obligatory for train wreck appeal)
	10:23pm Rich in Washington: Sadly don't have The Sonics version :(
	10:24pm ultradamno: (and Residents, though cueing it off Third Reich seems like it would be quite a trick)
	🥁 10:25pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Swamp Rats" this is killer! 1966? Loving it.
	10:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @10:25 The Swamp Rats also covered Sonics' Psycho and it fucking rawks.
	10:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:24 cueing anything off of 3RR is a nightmare and I'm intimately familiar with that record.
	10:32pm Androu B.: Just to compliment this set, here's Second Hand Songs list of covers to date: https://secondhandsongs.com/work/2855/versions Also, wouldn't "Farmer John" be cosidered something of a rip-off of "Louie Louie"?
	10:33pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Iggy & The Stooges" I like at that point in the show he still felt coming off 'real slick' was an option
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 I've seen Brother Louie referenced as a Louie Louie cover just because of its chorus. I don't agree.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: the story behind these last Stooges performances sounds harrowing and hilarious.
	10:37pm northguineahills: lemmy gonna let you finish, but......(?)
	🥁 10:37pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Iggy & The Stooges" For some reason I always perk up to be sure to hear him break the bottle on the mic stand.
	10:40pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie, Louie" by "John Belushi / Cast" you nailed the commentary there....
	10:40pm Androu B.: Just noticed The Rivieras and The Bobby Fuller Four did medleys of both songs, so that pretty much emphasizes the similarities of the chord progressions in both songs.
	10:42pm ultradamno: ...another possible theme show worth pursuing: all mostly instrumentals with one repeated word (eg. Tequila)...endless supply out there.
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 Do it!
	10:47pm northguineahills: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 what about 'oi'?
	10:47pm ultradamno: I especially like the ones where the one word is said in a Frankenstein monster voice, that's a whole sub-genre
	10:48pm ultradamno: Oi's and "heyheyhey's" definitely
	10:48pm Holland Oatzier Holland: Posh Boy!
	10:49pm northguineahills: morricone!
	🥁 10:50pm WR: Interesting to see that the flip of what may be the earliest Richard Berry recording of Louie Louie is You Are My Sunshine which was copyrighted by Ex Louisiana Gov. Jimmy Davis www.discogs.com...
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ WR @10:50 head assplodes
	10:52pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 If you look carefully at the list I linked to above, you'll see versions by (I kid you not) Barry White, Stanley Clarke & George Duke, and...Demi Moore!
	10:53pm Dean: Just back. Seriously about Zappa, the larynx damage? I await a movie about the FGs in works by folks a friend of mine knows. Saw them at the Starwood. Great show.
	10:55pm ultradamno: That seems like a thing that should be cataloged among the cursed objects in Warehouse 13
	🥁 10:56pm WR: ↳ Dean @10:53 ultimateclassicrock.com... see, I don't always link only to wikipedia and discogs.
	10:56pm ultradamno: I did that on twitter once, collected every you tube of every version of Misirlou I could find....it was a lot.
	10:57pm ironybread: My show where I played every version of the Weird Paul song "Attack of the 50-Ft. Woman" was quite short
	10:57pm Dean: I've encountered Robbie from Posh Boy a few times. Once he showed up at the record store where I worked in suburban LA County with F Word. They hung out at the store.
	10:57pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:56 (which is to surf instrumentals what Louie Louie is to garage)
	10:58pm tom tom the pipers son: yeah that 'every version of a song' thing reminds me of th old trope of someone showing a slideshow of their vacation...
	10:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 thanks!
	10:59pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:57 snert
	10:59pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @10:56 Since you mention it... https://secondhandsongs.com/work/134693/versions
	11:03pm Androu B.: Mere words cannot describe what a huge David Lynch fan I am. The man has such an uncanny way of exposing the darkest natures underlying the human condition.
	11:04pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:03 no argument there.
	🥁 11:06pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Infant Tango" by "The Residents" Ringo Starfish
	11:06pm tom tom the pipers son: residents follow to twin peaks feels resonant
	11:08pm Dean: More on Posh Boy: This is a photo of F Word's appearance in the record store. That's RLR in the middle, X-8 from Flipside to his right, and a very good friend of mine to the left. This was Whittier, CA, pretty much a nothing town, except for Flipside. http://www.poshboy.com/01rik.jpg
	11:18pm Dean: What am I missing in Nurse With Wound? I've always found it so-so. He's a kind of Kenny G, eager to find the nadir of creativity. That itself is an achievement I admire, but even there it falls short.
	11:19pm ultradamno: NWW...the GOAT
	11:20pm Androu B.: ↳ Aitch @11:06 With Paul McCannickle, George Harrassome, and John Leanon.
	11:20pm Dean: I think part of the problem is that I associate NWW with The Wire, the magazine of insufferable know-nothings who blab endlessly about ... I don't know what.
	11:22pm ultradamno: The others were all crawfish, makes me think they had a Pete Crawfish who got fired
	11:22pm ultradamno: ↳ Dean @11:20 I'm lucky to have largely dodged that...my early associations for Stapleton was RRR and Foetus
	11:26pm ultradamno: I also always appreciated that, in contrast to many of his contemporaries he was always going for the humor or the eerie (his two major streams) rather than the EXTREME
	11:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:26 I've always appreciated the humor in Stapleton/NWW work (and frequent B. Kliban references). It keeps him from being pretentious, unlike a lot of his similar contemporaries.
	🥁 11:32pm Aitch: A fun shirt for the natural contrarian external-content.duckduckgo.com...
	11:35pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:32 yeah, the best part of nww is that it's not taken seriously at all
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @11:32 LOL!
	11:35pm ultradamno: Reminds me of the long gone movie review site Mr Cranky...who trashed everything regardless (often hilariously if inevitably repetitively)
	11:38pm ultradamno: My fav Barnes & Barnes was Linoleum. Some industrial/goth group should cover it.
	11:38pm Dean: Huh, but The Wire takes NWW and Stapleton very seriously, largely because it won't dare take anything it writes about anything other than very serious.
	11:41pm Dean: Okay, I'm done ragging. Who cares?
	11:43pm ultradamno: 4.bp.blogspot.com...
	11:43pm chresti: rag on!
	11:44pm Androu B.: It was just last year that Julee Cruise & Angelo Badalamenti departed from this plane of existence, 6 months apart.
	11:45pm ultradamno: ...and one-armed man Al Strobel!
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:44 That's right! I am sure I did a goddamn death dedication to both of them, but separately.
	11:47pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @11:43 Coincidentally, I'm going back to bran cereals as a breakfast staple.
	11:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Things I Put Together" by "Bush Tetras" Lucky Kat in Chicago is at this moment watching Bush Tetras live.
	11:48pm ultradamno: I only accept Life because like Mikey, I hate everything!
	11:49pm Androu B.: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:48 They played EFD's show at the end of August.
	🥁 11:50pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:46 Poor Snuggles
	11:50pm ultradamno: EFD has had them on a few times, always great
	11:55pm chresti: Thanks Rich!
	11:55pm Rich in Washington: ↳ chresti @11:55 Thanks for listening, chresti!
	11:55pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody! A few more minutes...
	11:55pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Tell Me What You Dream" by "Non Credo" Never heard of this group. Seems this came out the same year I first tuned in to the mothership.
	11:56pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:55 They're fantastic! I recommend this album and the one right before it(?) They're on Bandcamp now.
	🥁 11:58pm Aitch: Thanks for show Rich
	🥁 11:58pm WR: Thank you Thank you Rich Rich
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Aitch! Thanks, WR!
	12:01am Androu B.: Great show as always, Rich! Thanks!
	12:03am Rich in Washington: Night everyone!

The Radio Is Broken with Rich In Washington: Playlist from September 29, 2023

View Rich in Washington's profile

The Radio Is Broken is a three-hour spelunk through the canyons and fissures of humanity's collective unconscious. It sounds as if a field recording of the Culture Industry were a sonic juggernaut barreling down a rickety track—except that tunnel ahead is just painted onto a sheer cliff wall. With occasional forays into what might pass for "normal" music. Prerequisite journey: Cratedigger's Lung

Listener comments!
	🥁 8:58pm Aitch: I was trying to cheer up?
	8:59pm Robm: hello fellow listeners
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: Sorry, Aitch!
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: Hi Aitch! Hi Robm! Hi everyone!
	9:00pm Rich in Washington: I think my opening set might give everyone aural and cultural whiplash.
	9:00pm ultradamno: Rich! Breaker-Breakers!
	9:00pm ironybread: now adjusting neck brace.
	9:01pm tom tom the pipers son: hello rich, people...
	9:02pm Dean: Schwitters? I saw/heard an exhibit of his stuff at Berkeley several years ago.
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: Hi everyone! Good to see you all here!
	9:04pm Franco Twinkie: Howdy Rich and...
	9:04pm Robm: hey rich was kind if insane around here with all the rain
	9:05pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Robm @9:04 What horror did you see/experience?
	9:05pm Rich in Washington: Hi Franco! Hi Dean! Hi ironybread! Hi ultradamno! Hi tom tom! Hi Rich In Washington! Hi everyone!
	9:05pm chresti: Hi Rich and dads!
	9:06pm Yvang: Hi Rich and broken radio friends!
	9:06pm Dean: NYC's a mess, I'll guess. Welcome to civilization.
	9:06pm Robm: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:05 hearing that some subways got flooded and jfk got 9 inches of rain
	🥁 9:06pm WR: ↳ Song: "Burning Airlines Give You So Much More" by "Eno" This sounds muted. And did anyone else hear those "hello hello hellos" or something cutting into my Bluetooth speaker?
	9:06pm pot8o: hi everyone!
	9:06pm Robm: ↳ Dean @9:06 dean you can say that
	9:07pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @9:06 yes but ok now
	9:07pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Backwater" by "Meat Puppets" Love this sooooo much!
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: I have never played post-SST Puppets on WFMU. I checked.
	9:08pm Rich in Washington: or anywhere else as far as I know
	9:08pm Dean: I'm going to lodge a complaint. FMU gives due props to Meat Puppets, but few to Claw Hammer.
	9:09pm Dean: The only Meat Puppets I have is the first album and the "Big Car" single with a pen drawing by...somebody?
	9:10pm tom tom the pipers son: eating a raw garlic sandwich to get rid of cold... tough going
	9:10pm ultradamno: Damon Bostrom art on the In A Car ep...peak of the band IMO
	9:10pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:08 I never saw the Meat Puppets post SST, but I like hamburger stand parking lot boogie aspect just fine
	9:10pm Dean: Is the sandwich raw, or the garlic?
	9:11pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:10 I see, you smooshed In A Car and Big House...
	9:11pm Dean: Saw Metallica once at the Whisky, with Mustaine (way better than Hammet). They were fantastic, and then what happened?
	🥁 9:11pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:10 I had pizza yesterday on which I put lots of minced raw garlic.
	9:11pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:10 Too High To Die catches them right after their awkward ZZ Top worship phase.
	9:12pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:10 garlic is raw w/ butter, remedy worked once before... raw sandwich?
	9:12pm Dean: Thanks, ultradomo! You are exactly right, and I my suspicion was high that I'd done something of the sort even as I submitted it!
	9:12pm Dean: "I my" = "my"
	9:13pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:12 I my I, rasta fari?
	9:13pm ultradamno: David Thomas is a ZZ Top worshiper, maybe a secret post-punk influence.
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: I have never played Metallica on a radio show or DJ set until now.
	9:13pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @9:11 ah, hope was good, i can't get good pizza...
	9:14pm ultradamno: I saw offshoot Megadeth once, they were not so great. Slayer saved the night.
	9:14pm Dean: You know, raw sandwich. Like, sandwich, but raw.
	🥁 9:14pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:13 first few were good
	9:14pm Dean: Lars is such a subpar drummer...
	9:14pm Rich in Washington: I attended a Megadeth show but was only there for openers Cro Mags and Motorhead. We left after Motorhead and I was MEGA-DEAF!
	9:15pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @9:14 oh, i don't know, but it made me laugh...;)
	9:15pm Androu B.: Good Evening, Rich & disrepaired radio owners! As I mentioned on Hour Of Crap, news broke earlier today that Las Vegas PD finally caught the guy that shot Tupac. Turns out it was an inside job, just as one conspiracy theory had it.
	9:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @9:14 Lars drums like all the other instruments are there to support a drummer.
	9:15pm chresti: Something Marty might play
	9:16pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:14 I wish their set had been so thoughtfully positioned when I saw them. Alice In Chains and Anthrax also played, meh to both
	9:16pm chresti: the Metallica
	9:16pm Dean: Lars = absence of swing He has no concept of "music"
	9:16pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:11 The last time I saw them was right after Up On the Sun. It surprised me after seen them in their thrash stage several times. I think their evolution was good and natural.
	🥁 9:16pm Aitch: One day they'll be as big as Hammered Satin
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: Hi chresti! Hi Androu!
	9:17pm northguineahills: ↳ chresti @9:16 is that like The ohio state?
	9:18pm chresti: I'm late to any Metallica
	9:18pm Androu B.: ↳ Dean @9:16 You haven't seen him play "Ace Of Spades" though! (Search it on YouTube.)
	9:19pm Dean: But I have to say that when I saw them at the Whisky, opening for Saxon, I was duly blown away by their extremely hard work. They looked 16 to me, though they weren't, but damn, they wanted to entertain the audience, and that they did.
	9:22pm Dean: "Nothing has to make sense, does it?" That makes sense.
	9:23pm Scott_Oz: G'day Rich & Broken! 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:23pm Dean: Agreed, re: Cliff Burton. I'd even go further. They lost the spark when they booted Mustaine.
	9:23pm pot8o: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 hey! did you get your account back?
	9:24pm Dean: I'm eager for dead guest appearances.
	9:25pm Scott_Oz: ↳ pot8o @9:23 I did mate!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 GREAT SCOTT! It's Scott!
	9:26pm Rich in Washington: also, hi pot8o!
	9:26pm pot8o: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:25 congrats! did you ever figure out what happened?
	9:26pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Clippety Clop" by "Syd Dale" Clippety Clop would make a swell soundtrack to perusing the Blue Chip Stamp catalog.
	🥁 9:26pm WR: I miss Eric Kilkenny's Medium Cool Sheena show. Guess I can revisit it in the archives. wfmu.org... I'm curious what he has been up to.
	9:27pm ultradamno: Crass has been adding a bunch of back catalog stuff to their bandcamp lately...RP's Farce ep, Songs Of Love, Bullshit Detector comps..
	9:27pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @9:26 Funny you should mention!
	9:28pm Robm: ↳ WR @9:26 wonder what happened to his show?
	9:29pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:26 That track was used on a really weird children's show that played locally in my town when I was a kid.
	🥁 9:29pm WR: ↳ Robm @9:28 It was his choice. I'm sure Mr Fab would welcome him back if he wants to do more.
	9:30pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Robm @9:28 He wanted to focus on creating music and doing a weekly show made it difficult.
	9:30pm Androu B.: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:25 G'day Scottso!😎👊🍻🌏🎶🎧🎶
	9:31pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:30 ahh that explains it rich, thanks
	9:32pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice/Cosmetic Plague" by "Rudimentary Peni" crass.bandcamp.com...
	9:32pm Rich in Washington: one of these bands is not like the other
	9:32pm northguineahills: the last three selections are new to me (not sure how that is possible (although i'm familar w/ crass & riot city recs...)
	9:32pm Robm: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:23 glad you got your account back
	9:33pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:32 howdy NGH
	9:33pm Scott_Oz: ↳ pot8o @9:26 I did mate, but I did the detective work or I'd still banned.
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:33 You got banned? For realz?
	9:34pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Androu B. @9:30 Mate!🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:34pm ironybread: hardcore is good food
	9:34pm Androu B.: ↳ pot8o @9:26 You can follow up on it here: https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/132180 The whole thing was resolved during this show.
	9:35pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Sacrifice/Cosmetic Plague" by "Rudimentary Peni" Bob Schick of Honor Role (then of Battered Youth) turned me onto this record. It turned out to be kind of divisive. I remember a lot HC people making faces and saying "well, the comics are rad"....which is kind of odd now, since they don't too dissimilar in approach to the nearby and rather popular Die Kreuzen...
	9:36pm tom tom the pipers son: again off topic, but my deluxe honey bottle has a sphincter where the honey comes out so that when you have bottle upside down, you're not spilling honey all over until you squeeze it.... details that matter when you are ill...
	9:36pm northguineahills: ↳ Robm @9:33 robm!
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 I used to roadie for Honey Sphincter. A bunch of assholes.
	9:37pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Treat You Like Shit" by "Exploited" Now reminded of the Merry Crassmas cover gag which announced a contest in which a winner got an Exploited single and the loser got two Exploited singles (not to mention them slagging Crass on their live record....)
	9:37pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:36 is the bottle a bear doing a headstand?
	9:37pm Rich in Washington: wait I want a rewrite on that joke.
	9:37pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:37 literal lol...
	9:38pm pot8o: ↳ Androu B. @9:34 thanks! really should listen to that show some day, same with kitten sparkles
	9:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @9:37 I still have my OG issue of that record. Fucking hilarious, the Exploited slam and all.
	9:38pm Scott_Oz: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:34 Yep! Instead of the troll in a Suzy chat. But when I pointed out the error Ken un banned me
	9:38pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:37 not a bear...:(
	9:38pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:37 only a figurative lol for me 😉
	9:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:38 hmmm, i'll have to think about that one...
	9:41pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:38 NGH just saw what you wrote last night, we would all take a bullet for you
	9:41pm Scott_Oz: Going into lurk mode now cos I'm on a dodgy phone . 🌏☀️🍻😎🤙💨🍺🌻
	9:41pm ultradamno: ...wait second prize was one Exploited single, third was two...first size was Bathsalts. I remember GBH and Kraut talking down Crass when I saw them too
	9:42pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 Good to see you, Scott! Stay out of trouble ;)
	9:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 i thought it was b/c you're having a munted afternoon!
	9:42pm northguineahills: ↳ Robm @9:41 thanks, man!
	9:42pm Robm: ↳ Scott_Oz @9:41 bummer scott
	9:42pm Robm: ↳ northguineahills @9:42 your welcome amigo
	9:43pm Scott_Oz: ↳ northguineahills @9:42 That too mate! 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:43pm Robm: ↳ Androu B. @9:34 the listmind works again
	9:44pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Freedom From What" by "The Sears" the roebucks always get 2nd billing...
	9:44pm ironybread: hi Scott hi Aitch
	9:45pm Robm: ↳ pot8o @9:38 echo beach is a kick ass show
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:44 There was a punk band called The Wards in the 80s so there's that.
	9:45pm ultradamno: It pays to comb that beach
	9:45pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Robm @9:45 It really is. I seldom miss it even if I can't be in the chat.
	9:46pm northguineahills: when i was in gainesville, it felt like nyc, as mostly everything is walkable (rarely got in a car). we were walking a good 4-6 miles a day...
	9:46pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:45 great bunch of people there too
	9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:45 there should be wfmu based band called 'monty and the wards'
	9:47pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Where There's A Will There's A Way" by "Discharge" gotta dig the artwork....
	9:48pm pot8o: unfortunately i haven't listened to the sheena stream as much i probably should, doesn't help that a lot of the really cool shows are in conflicting timeslots (miss mei's show vs tony coulter & fabio, for example)
	9:48pm Dean: Part of me wishes artists would have ignored Bush and Thatcher. They weren't worth the attention.
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ pot8o @9:48 yeah, my favorite sheena shows are in conflict w/ my favorite gtds shows. I either simulisten to both streams or go back and forth...
	9:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @9:48 what about kissinger?
	9:49pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @9:47 although thatcher not quite right... too young looking or something
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ pot8o @9:48 Yeah, there are some heartbreaking schedule conflicts, to be sure.
	9:50pm Dean: Kissinger? A lovely man. Astute.
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @9:49 knowyourmeme.com...
	9:52pm Dean: Real punk never went anarcho. Punk ended in '79. Period.
	9:53pm Robm: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:49 rich now that wreck your own adventure is on the drummer stream, it’s hard because i like radio ravioli, but i choose wendy because at least i hear cursing on the internet only streams, plus less trolls
	9:53pm ironybread: www.yelp.com...
	9:54pm Scott_Oz: ↳ ironybread @9:44 G'day mate! Been a while. 🍻😎🤙💨🍺
	9:54pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @9:53 ha, nice!
	9:55pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Where There's A Will There's A Way" by "Discharge" Poster I have with this artwork from when I saw them mastodon.social... Canadian tux I used to wear mastodon.social... Also mastodon.social...
	9:56pm ultradamno: I recommend El Conde on Netflix for a hilarious revisiting of the iron madge
	9:56pm northguineahills: @rich: this show is hitting so deep, i'll have to dig up later....
	9:57pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:56 Later ngh! Thanks for stopping by!
	9:57pm ultradamno: Real punk ended when Punk's Not Dead was first performed
	9:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:57 oh, i ain't going anywhere.... just pointing out the metaphorical places i'll have to take myself after midnight..
	9:59pm Rich in Washington: ↳ northguineahills @9:58 Oh nice! Glad you're in a better location, btw...
	9:59pm tom tom the pipers son: zombie punk began with green day, remember the hoopla before they appeared on snl
	10:01pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @9:59 back in orlando. going to nyc next week for a week. (i was in gaineville for 5 days. got to see that only 38% of vinyl collection, and 45% of my cd collection still exists. moving it to a friend's new storage space organized so when i move move to nyc, i won't actually have to be there in person)
	10:02pm Rich in Washington: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:59 my crackpot social theory was that Lollapalooza was like the Wild West Shows of the late 1800s, where it brought punk exhibit style to all these suburban kids in arenas. It was totally neutered and watered down for mass consumption. And all these punk artists were getting old and tired of touring in a shitty van for pocket change.
	10:03pm pot8o: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "The Restaurant Hot Sauce" i always mixed this track up with brother louie
	10:03pm ultradamno: Then came Warped to work in the skaters
	10:03pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:59 i dunno, punk in the non-west is still a thing (see some of the nyege nyege recs examples from example [prolly one of the most eclectic record labels {of mostly african artists}])
	10:03pm tom tom the pipers son: sounds right a sort of mournful louie louie liked it
	10:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:02 most of the bands i saw live in lollapalooza were 'recent' (last four years or less). of course, i camped out by the second stage (i was 17, when i was 18 it got cancelled by TS)
	10:05pm Dean: I'm kind of amazed that folks even paid attention to Lollapalooza. What was the attraction?
	10:06pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @10:05 It was mainly geared towards kids who suddenly heard about punk and/or lived 100 miles from a town that had a scene.
	10:06pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:03 uh-huh, i can see that, but only vaguely aware of nyege nyege
	10:07pm ultradamno: I never understood why people wished they could have been at Woodstock....it's looked like a drag.
	10:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Dean @10:05 it was the first non-local concert i was allowed to attend by my parents (i come from a fundy household). i had to cut my hair. i was my friends' designated driver ) honestly, i was there to see j mascis, and to hear a bunch of random indie bands on the second stage.
	10:08pm northguineahills: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:06 nyegenyegetapes.bandcamp.com
	10:08pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:07 rock festivals - like cruise ships - look like my idea of hell on earth.
	🥁 10:09pm Aitch: Festivals and arena shows, my idea of hell
	10:09pm northguineahills: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 yeah, i haven't been back to one since. once I was went to uni, i hit all scenes all at once....
	10:09pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ northguineahills @10:08 thanks, bookmarked that.
	10:10pm Rich in Washington: I did enjoy NXNW and No Fest here in Portland but they were in multiple venues across town. No meandering among a herd of sweaty cretins.
	10:10pm northguineahills: ↳ Aitch @10:09 last arena show, the cure '96...(and it killed) /i rarely have gone to shows to venues that can host 300+, unless i can get in for free....
	🥁 10:13pm Aitch: 3 hours of Steamed Hams. Why happened to Nick the Bard?
	10:14pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:13 LOL
	🥁 10:14pm Aitch: ↳ northguineahills @10:10 Gorillaz last year with my girls, 20,000 people. Tooooo many people, but the show was great.
	10:15pm ultradamno: I vote Flamin' Groovies version for #1
	10:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @10:14 Oh nice!
	🥁 10:17pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie (At The Royal Albert Hall In London)"... Yes, a classic.
	10:18pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "The Kingsmen" Mary Wing, did she take over, doing her 3OK
	10:18pm ultradamno: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:08 ...and Motörhead used to do one on a cruise ship www.vice.com...
	10:18pm northguineahills: ↳ Aitch @10:13 why is the important question....
	10:18pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:18 Oh I know. It sounded ghastly.
	10:19pm ultradamno: Mikkey Dee: We Will Never Re-Form Motörhead with Some “Idiot” Replacing Lemmy www.yahoo.com... This seems to open the potential for legal non-idiots to apply
	10:19pm Dean: Zappa sounds almost like Jonathan Richman. What up?
	10:20pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Dean @10:19 Probably before some asshole pushed him off the stage, which crushed his larynx and dropped his voice an octave. No lie.
	10:21pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Rich in Washington @10:20 faroutmagazine.co.uk...
	🥁 10:21pm WR: ↳ Song: "Plastic People" by "The Mothers Of Invention" First time to hear this, fun.
	10:21pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Plastic People" by "The Mothers Of Invention" it's antecedent, but there's a vaclav havel joke in here...
	10:21pm northguineahills: ↳ WR @10:21 what WR said...
	10:23pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Swamp Rats" This is maybe my favorite Louie Louie.
	10:23pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:15 Then maybe Sonics and Stooges (obligatory for train wreck appeal)
	10:23pm Rich in Washington: Sadly don't have The Sonics version :(
	10:24pm ultradamno: (and Residents, though cueing it off Third Reich seems like it would be quite a trick)
	🥁 10:25pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Swamp Rats" this is killer! 1966? Loving it.
	10:25pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @10:25 The Swamp Rats also covered Sonics' Psycho and it fucking rawks.
	10:26pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:24 cueing anything off of 3RR is a nightmare and I'm intimately familiar with that record.
	10:32pm Androu B.: Just to compliment this set, here's Second Hand Songs list of covers to date: https://secondhandsongs.com/work/2855/versions Also, wouldn't "Farmer John" be cosidered something of a rip-off of "Louie Louie"?
	10:33pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Iggy & The Stooges" I like at that point in the show he still felt coming off 'real slick' was an option
	10:33pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 I've seen Brother Louie referenced as a Louie Louie cover just because of its chorus. I don't agree.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: the story behind these last Stooges performances sounds harrowing and hilarious.
	10:37pm northguineahills: lemmy gonna let you finish, but......(?)
	🥁 10:37pm WR: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Iggy & The Stooges" For some reason I always perk up to be sure to hear him break the bottle on the mic stand.
	10:40pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie, Louie" by "John Belushi / Cast" you nailed the commentary there....
	10:40pm Androu B.: Just noticed The Rivieras and The Bobby Fuller Four did medleys of both songs, so that pretty much emphasizes the similarities of the chord progressions in both songs.
	10:42pm ultradamno: ...another possible theme show worth pursuing: all mostly instrumentals with one repeated word (eg. Tequila)...endless supply out there.
	10:43pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 Do it!
	10:47pm northguineahills: ↳ ultradamno @10:42 what about 'oi'?
	10:47pm ultradamno: I especially like the ones where the one word is said in a Frankenstein monster voice, that's a whole sub-genre
	10:48pm ultradamno: Oi's and "heyheyhey's" definitely
	10:48pm Holland Oatzier Holland: Posh Boy!
	10:49pm northguineahills: morricone!
	🥁 10:50pm WR: Interesting to see that the flip of what may be the earliest Richard Berry recording of Louie Louie is You Are My Sunshine which was copyrighted by Ex Louisiana Gov. Jimmy Davis www.discogs.com...
	10:50pm northguineahills: ↳ WR @10:50 head assplodes
	10:52pm Androu B.: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 If you look carefully at the list I linked to above, you'll see versions by (I kid you not) Barry White, Stanley Clarke & George Duke, and...Demi Moore!
	10:53pm Dean: Just back. Seriously about Zappa, the larynx damage? I await a movie about the FGs in works by folks a friend of mine knows. Saw them at the Starwood. Great show.
	10:55pm ultradamno: That seems like a thing that should be cataloged among the cursed objects in Warehouse 13
	🥁 10:56pm WR: ↳ Dean @10:53 ultimateclassicrock.com... see, I don't always link only to wikipedia and discogs.
	10:56pm ultradamno: I did that on twitter once, collected every you tube of every version of Misirlou I could find....it was a lot.
	10:57pm ironybread: My show where I played every version of the Weird Paul song "Attack of the 50-Ft. Woman" was quite short
	10:57pm Dean: I've encountered Robbie from Posh Boy a few times. Once he showed up at the record store where I worked in suburban LA County with F Word. They hung out at the store.
	10:57pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:56 (which is to surf instrumentals what Louie Louie is to garage)
	10:58pm tom tom the pipers son: yeah that 'every version of a song' thing reminds me of th old trope of someone showing a slideshow of their vacation...
	10:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Androu B. @10:32 thanks!
	10:59pm northguineahills: ↳ ironybread @10:57 snert
	10:59pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @10:56 Since you mention it... https://secondhandsongs.com/work/134693/versions
	11:03pm Androu B.: Mere words cannot describe what a huge David Lynch fan I am. The man has such an uncanny way of exposing the darkest natures underlying the human condition.
	11:04pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:03 no argument there.
	🥁 11:06pm Aitch: ↳ Song: "Infant Tango" by "The Residents" Ringo Starfish
	11:06pm tom tom the pipers son: residents follow to twin peaks feels resonant
	11:08pm Dean: More on Posh Boy: This is a photo of F Word's appearance in the record store. That's RLR in the middle, X-8 from Flipside to his right, and a very good friend of mine to the left. This was Whittier, CA, pretty much a nothing town, except for Flipside. http://www.poshboy.com/01rik.jpg
	11:18pm Dean: What am I missing in Nurse With Wound? I've always found it so-so. He's a kind of Kenny G, eager to find the nadir of creativity. That itself is an achievement I admire, but even there it falls short.
	11:19pm ultradamno: NWW...the GOAT
	11:20pm Androu B.: ↳ Aitch @11:06 With Paul McCannickle, George Harrassome, and John Leanon.
	11:20pm Dean: I think part of the problem is that I associate NWW with The Wire, the magazine of insufferable know-nothings who blab endlessly about ... I don't know what.
	11:22pm ultradamno: The others were all crawfish, makes me think they had a Pete Crawfish who got fired
	11:22pm ultradamno: ↳ Dean @11:20 I'm lucky to have largely dodged that...my early associations for Stapleton was RRR and Foetus
	11:26pm ultradamno: I also always appreciated that, in contrast to many of his contemporaries he was always going for the humor or the eerie (his two major streams) rather than the EXTREME
	11:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ ultradamno @11:26 I've always appreciated the humor in Stapleton/NWW work (and frequent B. Kliban references). It keeps him from being pretentious, unlike a lot of his similar contemporaries.
	🥁 11:32pm Aitch: A fun shirt for the natural contrarian external-content.duckduckgo.com...
	11:35pm pot8o: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:32 yeah, the best part of nww is that it's not taken seriously at all
	11:35pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Aitch @11:32 LOL!
	11:35pm ultradamno: Reminds me of the long gone movie review site Mr Cranky...who trashed everything regardless (often hilariously if inevitably repetitively)
	11:38pm ultradamno: My fav Barnes & Barnes was Linoleum. Some industrial/goth group should cover it.
	11:38pm Dean: Huh, but The Wire takes NWW and Stapleton very seriously, largely because it won't dare take anything it writes about anything other than very serious.
	11:41pm Dean: Okay, I'm done ragging. Who cares?
	11:43pm ultradamno: 4.bp.blogspot.com...
	11:43pm chresti: rag on!
	11:44pm Androu B.: It was just last year that Julee Cruise & Angelo Badalamenti departed from this plane of existence, 6 months apart.
	11:45pm ultradamno: ...and one-armed man Al Strobel!
	11:46pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:44 That's right! I am sure I did a goddamn death dedication to both of them, but separately.
	11:47pm Androu B.: ↳ ultradamno @11:43 Coincidentally, I'm going back to bran cereals as a breakfast staple.
	11:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Things I Put Together" by "Bush Tetras" Lucky Kat in Chicago is at this moment watching Bush Tetras live.
	11:48pm ultradamno: I only accept Life because like Mikey, I hate everything!
	11:49pm Androu B.: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:48 They played EFD's show at the end of August.
	🥁 11:50pm Aitch: ↳ Rich in Washington @11:46 Poor Snuggles
	11:50pm ultradamno: EFD has had them on a few times, always great
	11:55pm chresti: Thanks Rich!
	11:55pm Rich in Washington: ↳ chresti @11:55 Thanks for listening, chresti!
	11:55pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody! A few more minutes...
	11:55pm Androu B.: ↳ Song: "Tell Me What You Dream" by "Non Credo" Never heard of this group. Seems this came out the same year I first tuned in to the mothership.
	11:56pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Androu B. @11:55 They're fantastic! I recommend this album and the one right before it(?) They're on Bandcamp now.
	🥁 11:58pm Aitch: Thanks for show Rich
	🥁 11:58pm WR: Thank you Thank you Rich Rich
	11:59pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Aitch! Thanks, WR!
	12:01am Androu B.: Great show as always, Rich! Thanks!
	12:03am Rich in Washington: Night everyone!
