Favoriting Brian Turner: Playlist from August 7, 2012 Favoriting

Order and disorder in a freeform haze of terribly-played guitars, shorted-out electronics, found audio detritus, strange sounds from strange lands all around. Psych-punk-junk, collage, even pop. Lots of in-studio live performances to boot.

  3:20pm

Catch up atcha on Dusty, Matt.
  3:23pm
Cheri Pi:

If you want to make the Devil's Buckeye, add a rhubarb syrup center to the candy. but you have to be pretty crazy to do that. or have your reasons.
  3:23pm
Matt from Springfield:

Wax is natural and digestible, often used in candymaking.
  3:24pm
Matt from Springfield:

The Dusty fill-in tonight? You bet!
  3:26pm
Letha:

@ Joe P - Thanks!
  3:27pm

  3:30pm
Cecile:

I might be able to help you out, Cheri. I think I have 1 or 2.
Email me offline.
  3:31pm
Braveness23:

Definitely not next TH or F as I'll be in Dayton. M & T look pretty good. W is wide open but that usually means that I'll be gobbled up by something so that's iffy.

  3:55pm
Woo:

Speaking of Subway, I should not have had onions added to my footlong tuna
  3:55pm
Matt from Springfield:

LOVE that Toe Rag jacket cover! That artist obviously fine tuned his/her pencil drawing skills over many boring high school classes!
  3:56pm
Matt from Springfield:

@Woo: Tuna melt for me myself this afternoon. Altoid? (shakes tin)
  3:56pm
Watsy:

ALGEBRA SUICIDE! Woot!

Sadly, if you were on vacation this year, you'd hear of a lot of famous peoples deaths, just 'cause there were so many of them...
