Joe, I'm going to keep reminding you about Blumin's 12" single file suggestion until you go ahead with it.
  12:15am
12539:

But I'll let you off the hook regarding "cassingle file."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:17am
Joe McG:

The only problem with an all 12" Single File is that it would only take about 3 singles! It would have to be a special hour version.
  12:27am
T-Zero:

big records with small holes that play at 45

Well Kitty, I had to look up conkers, but definitely yes.

Hey Dan.

Hey, Dan. I still don't know what conkers are. They sound like they'd be difficult to eat.

Marmalade Kitty:

Gary the squirrel might fancy himself!
  1:19am
T-Zero:

I thought conkers were buckeyes here in the states
  1:21am

Is it Gary who's getting his own show?

The cover of this FM tribute album stole the same clip art we stole.

Heya Kurt Gee

@Kurt: I want to know what authority. Lou Reed? (Hi, Julie!)
  1:35am
Marmalade Kitty:

Conkers is a traditional game played with the fallen seeds of the conker tree (horse chestnut tree). The conkers are fed with a long piece of string and then left to harden.. Then the fun can begin! The game is for two. One person dangles their conker by the string, the objective is for the other player to swing their conker by the string as hard as neccessary, to crack open their opponents conker. Each takes turn until the conker explodes :D
  1:36am
KP:

Uh ...
  1:37am
DJKurtG:

apparently it comes from the guy that had that dusty vinyl store for decades in ... hackensack? i'm blanking on where now.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:37am
Joe McG:

Thank god we're on the Internet. Won't get arrested for dangling my conker.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:38am
Joe McG:

@DJKG: I don't trust any authority from Hackensack. Doo Wop authorities need to be from the Bronx.
  1:39am
Julie:

Let your conkers fly free, that's what I always say. Or I will now.
  1:40am
Marmalade Kitty:

lol!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:41am

Hey, Julie, I say we make some conkers and bring 'em to the holiday party this year.
  1:43am

True.

It's the obstacle you must overcome to get into the kingdom.

is the association in the kingdom? i thought you might have found a song by them that didn't make me want to kill puppies out of rage but then they got to the chorus.

Love Surface Noise, always catch it when I can.

"piss" is one of george carlin's 7 words.

First concert. I usually say preTommy Who but it is was the Association.
  2:18am
KP:

Isn't there an hour when such things become permissible?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:18am
Joe McG:

Hey, Robb! Late hello, and thanks! @DJKG: I think it's only bad if you use it in the sense of actually pissing. @KP: Lucky!
  2:18am
DJKurtG:

i'm sorry, kp.
  2:20am

Two weeks apart at same venue. Believe it or not, the Who were better.

I'm gonna loop joe humming and use it as bed music
  2:23am
DJKurtG:

dumass pete - i love the who, but dumass pete has been talking lately about how he should have never been in the who. he thinks he would have been like eno if he didn't have a band holding him back.
  2:25am

and who doesn't want to be like eno?

Bollocks! Pete's just jealous of Fripp!

it's a tough job being eno's barber. you gotta always have a lot of cocaine and vintage porn on hand in case he comes by.

You could always play TB sheets.

That'd be an upper!

Jon Entwhistle:

They all wine, and eventually implode. The Police made the infighting part of the stage show. Roger Waters whines for careers on end.
  2:33am
DJKurtG:

they don't all whine. and so far the only whiners named have been brits!
  2:33am
KP:

Analogue porn and cocaine.
  2:34am

That will harden your conker.

the song was about to get cut and mick ronson (who played on the album) said he wanted to try to salvage it and that's what he came up with.
