"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

Ty 4 putting music on — sorry I got hot. I just can’t listen to people bullying each other about who can be the most nonchalant while speaking to a middle aged indie rock musician.

Now that I've typed this up, I am imagining it as one of those 80s anti-drug commercials, which is about right. I think I'm the one who brought Frampton into our home. I never thought about what it would do to my family.

I still feel nostalgic about “Policeman” off of Chicago 16 and occasionally find myself been digging the harmonies on “Hard To Say I’m Sorry” and “If You Leave Me Now.” Hell, if Jim O’Rourke named an album off “Leave Me Now,” that makes it all right, right? :)

On the one hand, rock bands are about people getting into a room regularly to have fun playing music, and maybe once in a while recording something or going outdoors to play in front of people for not enough money. On the other hand, a rock band might be tired of that, but people are still trying to give you too much money to come outside and play, whether you want to or not.

Geez you know. My analogy is always that FMU is this big Building right ? Not the actual Montgomery thing ...like the size of a Block. & every Program is a Room. & it's a different Party (a Rent Party as it happens) with a different Host. Some are interesting but not as friendly (to me) - some I really feel @ Home. & there are plenty of these Rooms - in different sections or off-buildings (the Alt Streams) too even... & some are absolutely fascinating - & some a real blast...
