Tonite here outdoors they're gonna have an evening of cat videos. It should be awesome. BYOB. On faceborg a thousand people have said they're coming. There's a warning that there's only gonna be two porta-potties. Naturally someone asked about the sand beach. Expect hilarity to ensue.

@FVH: Things like that didn't happen before the Internet! We are eternally in its debt!

Kill Rock Stars label, Rock Stars Kill album.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:05am
Julie:

you have to wonder if there was some sort of underground trading of kitty videos before the net
  5:08am
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, '68 is the earliest Jennifer Warnes I've heard! She sounds like a European chanteuse here.
  5:08am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Grainy sixth generation VHS copies of Keyboard Cat.
  5:09am
fred von helsing:

My cat would have been an internet phenom, he loved fetching paper wads
  5:09am
Matt from Springfield:

@Julie,BGZ: Bootleg tuxedo cat dancing vids, paper mail-order catalogs before the Net.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:10am
Julie:

I want to see the earliest kitty video! Some home movie from 1915! @Matt she was just Jennifer back then
  5:10am
fred von helsing:

@BGZ Pirated movies in the USSR mostly had Finnish subtitles cos people in Tallinn were picking them up from Helsinki (grainy yes), it was quite a pipeline of evil Western action-adventure propaganda
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:10am
Julie:

@Matt seek out her appearances on Smothers Brothers on youtube..they are fabulous
  5:11am
fred von helsing:

Before keyboard cat there was player piano cat. He had it relatively easy.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:12am
Julie:

harpsichord cat?
  5:14am
Marmalade Kitty:

I listened to 2 lush albums in a row lastnight.. I feel a bit funny today, this morning!
  5:14am
Matt from Springfield:

@FVH: Fascinating about underground pipelines. "Red Heat", finally bringing freedom to the Soviet Union!

I'm sure there have been player piano and harpsichord cats--it's called owners getting drunk at parties and amusing everyone by placing their cat on the keyboard!
  5:15am
pierre:

here, i'm switching to listener listener mode.
  5:16am
Matt from Springfield:

The question is the earliest film--search the records of Edison's Black Maria films. (The first "porn" film was apparently his employees doing a dirty parody of another early film in their spare time!)

MK Split and Spooky?

I have an 8mm film loop of a cat playing with a telegraph machine.

You know the first person to put adhesive tape on their cat's paws captured that moment of hilarity on home movie.
  5:21am
fred von helsing:

of course everyone knows that Miki Lush was in a Bond film
  5:21am

@OD: It's a good sign, that the fans of this music are also extremely witty! Double bonus for those who attend live! :)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:22am
Julie:

I've seen you guys in action on UWTP, it gets pretty nutty
  5:22am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

Somebody used a PXL-2000 camera to document their cat's shenanigans with a laserdisc.
  5:25am
Matt from Springfield:

@OD: That reminds me, I was going to refer you to Booker T & the MGs "Tic-Tac-Toe" -- see what that music spells in Morse code! Devo's "Snowball" is another good one to check out.
  5:27am
Marmalade Kitty:

@Matt, It starts off that way, then o.O I fancied a bit of lush, typed lush into itunes, then fell asleep.. woke up 2hrs later with lush on loop :..quite depressing!
  5:28am
Matt from Springfield:

Noooo! Don't go yet!!!
  5:29am
Marmalade Kitty:

I looked at the clock..? Julie!
  5:29am
Matt from Springfield:

Whew! Merely a bed rotational!
(Is that like a "musical beds", but switching the BEDS instead of the people? :)
  5:30am
fred von helsing:

MORE CAT SONGS PLEASE :-P
  5:30am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

I looked at the clock, too.

Then I was concerned that you were too sick to carry on. I hope all is ok,
  5:32am
BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX):

3AD aka 1 B44AD???
  5:32am
Matt from Springfield:

@Julie: It's a shock, but it's important to switch up every so often, so we don't become strongly fixated on routines!
  5:33am
Matt from Springfield:

@BGZ: YES! :D

@Kitty: That's subliminal Lush, it can now influence your thinking without you being aware of just how!
  5:35am
Bas, NL:

What a great new Dead Can Dance!! Thanks for playing.

"If You Could Read My Mind"...
You've played that actually, not Gordon Lightfoot but Olivia's cover.
  5:42am
Matt from Springfield:

@OD: Thanks! Also, those are just great songs to begin with, so you should have a lot of fun with them!
  5:45am

hair of the lush..?
  5:45am
WFMU Request Line:

hey this stuff is bumming me out can you play some KC and the Sunshine Band?
  5:46am
Matt from Springfield:

Like this version, another one you've played before.

I wondered where Tel Basta came from with a name like that, apparently: "Defunct American trio which started out as experimental outfit Bast and then changed its name and style as well."
  5:46am
other david:

A lot of the time, they're just random characters in songs - the artist just likes the sound rather than trying to convey a message

But Kraftwerk actually knew what they were doing :)
  5:46am
Matt from Springfield:

@requester: There's a DJ Battle later this afternoon, Clay Pigeon should be digging some out then!
  5:49am
pierre:

@ Matt : DJ battle, like in Clay Vs Fabio battle ?
  5:49am
Marmalade Kitty:

nice cover!

Many Europeans on the board tonight, but all seemingly from *different* countries!

Since I have an "Italian roast" coffee and Italy is unrepresented, I'll fill in as delegate for Italy! Ciao! ;)
  5:50am
Matt from Springfield:

Oui pierre! I think it's later, like 4:30 to 7 (10:30 on your time), but today is supposed to be the day.
