Listener comments!

  3:06pm
Das:

Is it sad that the highlight of my week is Mr Giant Man?
  3:10pm
Parq:

Das, of course not. It's the highlight of everybody's week. Well, that and the Fabio-Piegeon transitional nugget.
  3:12pm
Pantagruel:

What would be sad would be a week without Mr Giant Man.
  3:17pm
dc pat:

I still have to go back and listen to the whole show that Clay co-hosted. What I heard was fekkin hilarious...
  3:18pm
Ike:

I LOVE the Finnish version. But the highlight of yr week? Oh gosh. The highlight of my week is usually something dirty (and I don't mean the new Faust album).
  3:20pm
BSI:

Combining mr.giant man with something dirty would be a highlight for me, certainly.
...or uh, let me clarify that...
  3:21pm
steve:

the fabio-clay show last week was so funny that i, for the first time ever, had to run out of my office to get all the laughs out
  3:22pm
dc pat:

that clay is a piece of work.
  3:26pm
dc pat:

yes, nucular power, the clean energy...
  3:28pm
minnesota jeff:

I 100% believe Clay Pigeon could sit down on air with anyone on the station and have fantastic results.
  3:30pm
Looms:

I've just been busy watching the live acts i could not see during the finale (that was something!). Did the guys in Japan manage to put the cooling machinery back in action? Hope it's gonna work.
  3:32pm
Cheri Pi:

Thank you for this Japanese set, it is so painful to see my home country in such distress.
  3:34pm
Cecile:

Magical Power Fabio.
  3:34pm
Cecile:

Ike, the new Faust album was the high point of my last week...
  3:35pm
Cecile:

Cheri, I'm very sorry to hear that.
  3:38pm
Cheri Pi:

Thanks Cecile.
  3:41pm
Cecile:

My thoughts, some of my money and a little Twitter banner are with the people of Japan.
  3:54pm
?:

Fabio, what's up, is this a one-time foregoing of the "failure of . . ." designation on the playlist title, or are you changing your ways?
  3:54pm
BSI:

Cecile: funny, that's about when I got my copy of the Faust LP, and yes. Agreed.
  3:58pm
Looms:

This was a track by Daniel Koskowitz, wasn't it?
  3:59pm
Looms:

I'm not sure...
  4:11pm
HΘRNΣT MΘNTANA:

Regarding Clay, a visual on him was finally available via the Sunday performance at Maxwells - I thought he'd be a bushy fisherman, but he resembled an 80's rocker.
  4:11pm
john:

tadanori yokoo will melt your mind
  4:12pm
unit:

Didn't it move 8 meters? That's like 24 feet.
  4:12pm
john:

i was there for Clay's performance... he was a real crowd mover
  4:12pm
Dual Theme Description:

A Failure of Fission/Vision
  4:13pm
HΘRNΣT MΘNTANA:

"Trace amounts of radiation from Japan have been detected at O'Hare airport in Chicago." (1 hour ago)
  4:15pm
Pantagruel:

In Chicago, it was from "travelers coming in from Japan."
  4:17pm
Cecile:

For some reason, I thought Clay looked like actor James Urbaniak. I got the tall part right in my head, though.
  4:17pm
Looms:

Well, just checked out that the Hausu soundtrack was aped by Koskowitz (aka Jagger Naut) on this comp: http://www.discogs.com/Various-Musiques-Action-2/release/302353
At least, the guy should have pointed out where his samples were coming from (no credits). The oldest story in the book, sadly...
  4:19pm
aaron in chicago:

can one of the fabio regulars tell me if there's any esoteric significance to whether the english or finnish giant man is played
  4:20pm
Cecile:

I think it's whatever mood Fabio's in that day.
  4:21pm
Bill F.:

The esoteric significance is strongly dependent on Fabio's mood. Mood A = English. Mood B = Finnish.
  4:22pm
aaron in chicago:

and at that moment the novice became enlightened.
  4:22pm
Pantagruel:

The Finnish version is a 7" and I think it first appeared during Singles Going Steady week. Other than that, no significance I've ever seen.
  4:24pm
Julia:

Hey, what're we listening to right now? Just tuned in via Flash and whatever it is, it's enchanting.
  4:27pm
Das:

I wonder if Guitar Wolf will still be able to tour.
  4:31pm
Julie:

Both Clay & Fabio are phenomenal
  4:32pm
Cecile:

Oh, lord, that album title is giving me flashbacks of Manila Luzon on RuPaul's Drag Race.
  4:33pm
Cecile:

The Fujii and Fumica one.
A great, great song, though.
  4:34pm
Julie:

@Cecile the fact that you have flashbacks of RuPaul's Drag Race worries me
  4:37pm
Cecile:

I ADORE Drag Race. That is the best show on TV hands down.

Apart from Top Shot, or as my husband calls it "the gun nut show". Top Shot this week had a blowgun challenge! I was told, however, I could not get a blowgun no matter how cool it looked.
  4:38pm
Cecile:

He's just like he was when I wanted a hot pink taser gun. A killjoy.
  4:39pm
Julie:

Guns & Drag, balanced combo
  4:41pm
Cecile:

Yes, masculine and feminine sides are in balance.

Fabio, you should give a blowgun away as your premium next year.
  4:41pm
Pantagruel:

Imagine how happy Cecile will be when the drag gun show comes out.
  4:41pm
Cecile:

Yes! "RuPaul's Drag Range!"

it has to happen.
  4:42pm
BSI:

Jeepers, I might actually start watching TV if such a thing came along.
  4:43pm
Cecile:

"First, you have to demonstrate your best celebrity impersonation look, lip synch to "Mighty Real', and then knock out those plates over there with a Colt 45!".
  4:43pm
Julie:

Seriously..drag queens and guns, you've got something there.
  4:43pm
Julie:

And now..off to FMU to harass Fabio
  4:43pm
Cecile:

And you could get so many jokes about "packing" in there.
  4:49pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Hey everybody...took the day off, soaking the sun, just tuning in.
  4:55pm
Looms:

Glad to be introduced to Taj-Mahal Travellers.
  4:59pm
RobotBoy:

Sometimes I wonder where WFMU gets all this obscure stuff. Probably on loan from MTV.
  5:00pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

this was the stuff MTV snubbed. They played the Eurythmics instead.
  5:01pm
BSI:

yeh! I recall Huey Lewis and the Brooze very fondly...
  5:02pm
Looms:

@Robotboy: WFMU is the sum of its DJs
  5:03pm
Looms:

Who love MTV for sure!
Well, maybe not...
  5:04pm
Cecile:

You read anything on Fluxus and she was the backbone of that group.
  5:05pm
RobotBoy:

WFMU: inspired by the station that brought you Teen Mom, Teen Mom 2, and Jersey Shore.
  5:09pm
Cecile:

How so, RobotBoy? Maybe this AM which sounded quite 1982, but Fabio?
  5:11pm
david:

I'd like to thank Fabio for his corrective on the often-misguided perception of Yoko Ono. This is a great album.
  5:11pm
Cecile:

david, I was going to say "I'm glad I grew up and stopped making fun of the Plastic Ono Band record because it is really great."
  5:12pm
RobotBoy:

Wasn't Boris topping TRL on a regular basis? Perhaps my memory is failing here.
  5:14pm
david:

that was john and ringo on guitar and drums, if I'm not mistaken...
  5:15pm
Cecile:

OH. You mean Bizarro World MTV. Yes. I remember well Captain Beefheart guest VJaying one night.
  5:16pm
Cecile:

And the Snooki and Derek Bailey show was a show-stopper.
  5:18pm
Pantagruel:

Who directed that Giant Man video with the crazy Finnish subtitles?
  5:18pm
Cecile:

I think it was Lars Von Trier.
  5:19pm
?:

or Charlie Kaufmann
  5:19pm
Pantagruel:

Yes! I remember Lars' guest appearance on "Packing," LOL!
  5:19pm
Cecile:

Or Werner Herzog.
  5:20pm
david:

And who can forget Ed Blackwell's live set on "Downtown Julie Brown?"
  5:20pm
Fabio:

Snooki and Derek Bailey show... this has got to be one of the weirdest most disturbing things I've seen put together on the comments board!
  5:21pm
Cecile:

Thank you. I'm honored.
  5:24pm
Cecile:

Remember the LaMonte Young 48 hour Labor Day weekend special?
  5:25pm
Derek B.:

Such a drama queen she was. I always had to improvise my way out of all her crazy Situations.
  5:26pm
RobotBoy:

The real world and Bizarro World are fusing here on the WFMU comment boards.
  5:26pm
Cecile:

which is pretty much how it is every day.
  5:27pm
Looms:

Agreed
  5:29pm
BSI:

......down the rabbit hole me go.......
  5:29pm
Cecile:

lol!
  5:33pm
BSI:

can't leave headphones.... big damned vortex... bubbling feet... mouse dreams... i'm gonna DIE! ... i'm gonna DIE! .... carpet wants to share its terrible fiber secrets...
  5:38pm
john:

so far, i think this may be my favorite Strength Through Failure to date
  5:57pm
OK:

Time for Clay P. free association!
  5:58pm
Mister Wikipedia:

The human pharynx (plural: pharynges) is the part of the throat situated immediately posterior to (behind) the mouth and nasal cavity, and cranial, or superior, to the esophagus, larynx, and trachea. The human pharynx is conventionally divided into three sections: the nasopharynx (epipharynx), the oropharynx (mesopharynx), and the laryngopharynx (hypopharynx). The pharynx is part of the digestive system and also the respiratory system; it is also important in vocalization.
  6:01pm
OK:

Fairynx enough.
  5:39pm
stefica:

Fabio, thanks for the Japanese music.
Heartbreaking...
