"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.)

Pierre! hello! I need to step away for awhile, so please moderate the comments page while I'm away. Yknow, just use JA as your name when you respond for me. I appreciate this. I will be back around 6:30. OK
  6:08am
pierre:

(though its a lot a responsability, and i'm not sure i up to the task)
Bonjour Deepak
  6:09am

  6:15am
Deepak:

its time for my afternoon nap but i'll try and stay awake even though this track is a perfect lullaby
  6:22am
JA (which is pierre for 15 minutes):

@Azam : no have not seen it yet, although i've some issues concerning massive art event like that (you know the usual avoiding going to see what everybody else is going to seeā€¦ i'm being a bit snob) i still kinda want to see that, and my roomate is a big fan of the artist. Do you live in/near Paris ?

(by the way whn i said "Bonjour Jason" i meant "Bonjour JA" my mistake, for not being well awake)
  6:29am
Azam:

@Pierre - sure, but I really like his work and it's not often you get to see pieces on that scale. I'm in Brighton, England - so kind of near...
  6:39am
JA (which is pierre, for 15 minutes):

cool ! we (as part of the wfmu family) could se that while grabbing a drink !
I've only seen one of his piece, it was at the Tate Modern, it was that big red metal thing that looked like a giant red mussel. i enjoyed it.
I don't know if you tweet, but if you do let me know (its @pierreall)
  6:40am
JA:

  6:41am
annie:

  6:44am
annie:

ahh, REAL music with crackles and pops of vinyl.
  6:47am
John (FMG) London:

I'm pretty gutted I didn't go see these guys with Black Dice last week
  8:26am
glenn:

okay, u.k. listeners, forget the music, forget the art, let's get to the important shit - who the hell is imogen thomas, and who's she shagging? and does she have anything going for her besides great huge tracts of land?
  8:27am
hamburger:

word on the street is ryan giggs? oh and howdy wfmuuu btw :)
  8:29am
glenn:

so nobody important then?
  8:31am
hamburger:

an ex-big brother housemate
  8:33am
JA:

glenn what the hell have you done to my show? it's ruined now!
  8:34am
pierre:

@glenn : how the what did you came up with that topic ?
  8:34am
glenn:

i sowwy.
  8:37am
glenn:

there was an article in the toronto star today about imogen thomas and the unnamed (married) footballer she's been consorting with. and who better to satisfy my curiousity then the most excellent and wise u.k. commenters amongst you?
  8:41am
John (FMG) London:

I feel wrong that I also knew who she is and who she's been doing. I clearly need to stop reading the crappy free newspaper on the tube in the mornings
  8:45am
pierre:

@glenn & John (FMG) sometimes eyes are not organs to be trusted.
  8:47am
glenn:

huh?
  8:50am
?:

Pierre, I'm thinking Imogene's eyes were not the organs that made a difference here.
  8:51am
pierre:

sorry i meant when you stumble upon newspaper titles that talks about people like I. Thomas or other persons that doesn't belong to our reality. I feel disturb each time, those t.v. characters are forced to my consciousness.

@? : yeah obviously
  8:51am
glenn:

Richard from Venezuela:
