Listener comments!

9:04pm Robert:

So which of you is Phil Silvers, and which one's the monkey?

9:05pm Claw!:

Yooooo!
Happy Thursday to all the Spazzes in da house!

9:08pm Amanda:

Can there be a cable channel that plays Spazz TV all the time?

9:09pm Dave the Spazz:

Hello!

9:09pm Sean B.:

I'm honored to be here as THIS is Radio history!, Loving the video stream!. Yesseribob!. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!.

9:10pm Robert:

I'm trying to fit all these clips into a single narrative in my head, in the style of "Lowell Thompson Remembers" on SCTV.

9:11pm Sean B.:

Hi Amanda!, It was great hearing you on Matt's show today!;I hope you are well kid!.

9:12pm Robert:

OK, so the lady in the monkey suit got her car turned over by a mob, so she had to take a bicycle to make it in time for her song on stage w the Osmonds.

9:13pm Cooh John:

@ Robert: I know what you mean. I am waiting for Guy Caballero to roll into frame.

9:13pm sgt. macdonald:

Oh jeez I forgot about that Jerry Lee special. Yikes. And hi Amanda!

9:16pm fleep:

Milton Berle nightmare! Run!

9:17pm Amanda:

Hi kids!

9:18pm Robert:

Yes, John, a portrayal of Lowell Thomas w senile dementia claiming to remember the subjects of random clips: "And people were running...uh...from the Nazis...."

9:19pm Robert:

So is the lady Berle in drag, or did the guy having the nightmare wake up as a woman?

9:20pm Cooh John:

SCTV > SNL IMHO. Swim for it fleep.

9:21pm Robert:

Now it reminds me of "Tribulation 99" from Craig Baldwin.

9:23pm Sean B.:

Lord have mercy. Let the music go the talking. Who was that lady on the stream?. Can somebody tell me?

9:23pm Robert:

Tony Curtis showing us he used to be a fat black guy before taking Maalox?

9:25pm Robert:

Yeah, John, I always took SNL as the mere warm-up act for SCTV, especially because that's how most stations seemed to present them.

9:26pm joe:

The Sonics
Irving Plaza April 8th
Stone Pony April 9th

9:27pm Tim 07030:

Stop looking at the camera, Dennis!

9:27pm Amanda:

Big wolf whistle for Dennis Wilson in his orange outfit.

9:28pm Daddy-o Dilly:

I thought we were going to see endless hours of Dave and Bill scratching, picking boogers, and spazzing in the WMFU studio. I guess we're lucky, huh?

9:30pm fleep:

Primitive human mating rituals. Must study closely.

9:34pm Robert:

Someone else take a shift, please, providing the captioning for the video on the playlist archive, so people years from now will have a very clear picture of what we're seeing. I"m saving the UStream bandwidth by logging off that.

9:34pm Cooh John:

The monster is studying the ritual as well. Have you seen that critter in your neck of the seaweed, fleep?

9:35pm fleep:

Cooh John, yes, it can't blink. That's why it's so mean.

9:36pm akeenlistener:

for some reason the spazztv stream has a much bigger sound than the regular webstream. anyone else notice this?

9:36pm Caryn:

I'm confused because I was certain the stream was showing clips from some 60s surf movie. But then Joely Richardson seemingly showed up, so now I'm not sure what I'm watching.

9:37pm Sean B.:

I saw Brian Wilson at the Hatch Shell in Boston for free in 2003; People were walking away crying...Love Brian...how could we not? Was anyone there? www.setlist.fm...

9:39pm fleep:

And we have a victim, ladies and gentlemen.

9:39pm Tim 07030:

This movie has some serious plot twists

9:40pm tomasz.:

hi guys! i'm listening on a plane over the Atlantic! thank god for WFMU to distract me from the gigantic asshole married couple that have insisted i sit between them, and are now taking up all the space and chatting to each other across me.

9:41pm Dominick:

that thing has a mouth full of bratwurst

9:41pm PortableAnarchy:

Looks like the sea monster won the hot dog eating contest

9:42pm Ken From Hyde Park:

You are a sarcastic wit, Fleep. Please steer clear of the fishing nets out there so you can continue commenting. Would hate to have you wind up in a can of tuna or Alpo.

9:42pm Tim 07030:

Is this "The Horror of Party Beach"? And hey Tom, great seeing you this week!

9:42pm Caryn:

Ooh, this is way gorier than I expected! They usually just have the monster carry the struggling girl off in its arms, possibly into the water.

9:43pm tonyb:

tom:

turn the monkey music UP!
maybe sing along

tonyb

9:44pm Caryn:

@Tim: it is!

9:44pm Dominick:

Horror of Party Beach - shot at beautiful Shippan Point in Stamfart, CT

9:46pm Ken:

@akeenlistener we had audio problems with most of the other video shows but Ruth and Eric found and fixed the problem today,

9:47pm Station Mgr Ken:

Our Gang Season One!

9:48pm Gaylord Fields:

@tomasz: Why haven't you given each of them the ol' Glasgow Kiss?

9:49pm JakeGould:

Why doesn’t somebody do something about these gangs of unsupervised little rascals causing havoc?

9:52pm Ralphine:

I hope "Uncle George" is in one of these Our Gang videos.

9:52pm tonyb:

gaylord:

knowing a few bartenders,
i assume that's a head-butt?

9:52pm JakeGould:

Eat em up, yum yum.

9:53pm fleep:

Early development of twerking. How far we've come.

9:54pm Ralphine:

Exactly.

9:55pm Ralphine:

Is that Mary Lou Metzger on Lawrence Welk?

9:55pm JakeGould:

@Ralphine: Wrong! It’s “Yum Yum Eat Em Up!” www.youtube.com...

9:56pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Alfalfa died from gunshot wounds over a monetary dispute.

9:56pm Ralphine:

I didn't want to be one of those correcting types.

9:59pm Claw!:

The Remains!

10:00pm Claw!:

Just kidding. I was wondering why this sounded different... Great song, either way!

10:00pm Tim 07030:

Now THAT's a dress.

10:00pm JakeGould:

However Alfalfa died, he was the reason I attempted to eat raw scallions when I was like 9 years old.

10:01pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Lawrence Welk left his family's farm in North Dakota on his 21st birthday to pursue a music career and never returned.

10:02pm André:

The best Iggy music everrrrr! Thanks from Portugal! :)

10:02pm Cooh John:

I did not know that Will I Am could time travel.

10:02pm JakeGould:

Would have been one boring farm if he stayed.

10:03pm cosmic matrix:

that is some killer guitar tone. fuck.

10:04pm sgt. macdonald:

Space is the Place!

10:05pm Alejandroool:

yea buzzzzy as hell geetar

10:08pm JakeGould:

Irwin Corey collects money from driver’s on the street. I think he bought a carriage house back in the day.

10:09pm coelacanth:

howdy Dave and Spazzsters

10:11pm Claw!:

Hooray, my fishy friend has arrived! :))
I was wondering where you were...
Welcome!

10:11pm Ralphine:

I guess Joe Friday is undercover at a speakeasy.

10:12pm Wakko Krank:

Someone should edit a video mash-up of Joe Friday questioning The Monkees.

10:12pm JakeGould:

Yup, Irwin Corey collects money for Cuban children. cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com...

10:18pm Wakko Krank:

I was hoping to see Bill & Dave go ape in the studio...

10:19pm coelacanth:

hola Danger Bear!

10:20pm Wakko Krank:

Roy Head is an old time celebrity who really "gets" The Spazz.

10:22pm Dano59:

Did Dave's show meet the goal? The banner's just sitting there... if so, congrats. (PS, not Dan from the Woggles. Missed the Miriam again by THAT MUCH)

10:24pm Wakko Krank:

Man, I can't wait to play this premium for my co-workers!

10:24pm Alejandroool:

Setting a Goooooooal!

10:27pm Gaylord Fields:

@tonyb: You would be correct.

10:27pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

@Dano59: Dave hasn't set a goal for the show yet.

10:28pm Dano59:

COPS will be right back with more George Jones!

10:28pm Gaylord Fields:

@JakeGould: And conversely, thanks to Stymie, I stayed away from artichokes till well into my adulthood.

10:28pm Wakko Krank:

Heeee

10:29pm JakeGould:

@Gaylord: It might choke Artie, but it ain’t gonna choke Gaylord.

10:30pm Kenzo (Ken's Last Ever):

@Dano59: Just then, Dave set a goal for the show!

10:31pm Sean B.:

There's a great interview with on Robert Parker on this crazy little Documentary
"John Lennon's Jukebox" pretty cool.

10:33pm Wakko Krank:

Bite Dave now!

10:33pm JakeGould:

I’m playing a game with a lot of the faces and personalities that show up in Dave’s video stream: Trying to visualize them as working behind the counter of a deli with a dirty apron. Works well for Jack Webb, Joe Franklin and George Jones.

10:34pm JakeGould:

Review of the VU reissue. pitchfork.com...

10:36pm Caryn:

Oh, now how are we supposed to tell that the snarling guy in the black hat and cape is a baddie? He doesn't even have a moustache he's twirling evilly all the time! It's so subtle!

10:36pm Ryab:

Lots of The Velvet Underground on FMU. Loving it. :D

10:39pm Wakko Krank:

Who'll be the next in line to incur the wrath of Ray Davies?

10:39pm V Priceless:

Hi Dave, Bill and Spazzers! Kinks!

10:42pm Claw!:

...aaaaand there's V!
I was wondering where you were, too!

10:42pm coelacanth:

hey hey V P!

10:44pm coelacanth:

Pat Duncan & Paul Cavenaugh were my main wfmu shows back in the day.

10:44pm V Priceless:

Hey Claw! Hey Chops!

10:45pm Wakko Krank:

Yeah! It's all in the archives, and now there's no more RealPlayer BS!

10:45pm Alejandroool:

The Monk Keys

10:45pm Robert:

Pat Duncan--THAT's the name I keep forgetting, & credited someone else a few days ago as my gateway DJ. Only I was already 26 YO at the time, maybe 27.

10:47pm Claw!:

So V, Fish -
I was thinking we could be co-ed Spice Girls. V would obviously be Priceless Spice, Fish would be Scaly Spice, and I could be... Scratchy Spice? Eh? I dunno... Whaddya guys think?

10:47pm coelacanth:

he was on until only a few years ago.
-lots of archives.

10:48pm Wakko Krank:

FUGS!!!

10:49pm V Priceless:

I can be Olde Spice..,that's about it

10:49pm coelacanth:

i'm down...but i wanna be cajun spice.

10:49pm Caryn:

I wonder if Frank and Dino agreed to play spacemen as long as they could keep drinking and make out with the girl?

10:50pm Robert:

My listening went in a strange arc from Pat Duncan & Frank O'Toole (don't remember which 1st), then Jim Price, Ol' Pal Irwin, Bill Kelly, the Hebrew & Jewish program BEFORE Nachum, Kamikaze Diane, and on.

10:51pm Claw!:

Olde Spice, Cajun Spice. Got it.

10:51pm Dano59:

ooh painful memory that, the RealPlayer days. Better history on the FMU Facebook: Jesse Jarnow found stuff from a Fugs fund-raiser for FMU, 1968.

10:52pm Wakko Krank:

Miami Spice

10:52pm Robert:

Which was the one who was on w Morbid? I keep forgetting that too.

10:52pm Alejandroool:

Realplayer and proprietary file stream formats, eesh

10:52pm coelacanth:

maybe i should be endangered spice.
...(un-relatedly-) maybe you should be danger spice.

10:52pm Claw!:

I'm gonna be Snarky Spice.

10:54pm coelacanth:

that twerks.
-uh,works.

10:54pm Claw!:

Danger Spice, eh? Why is that? You've been calling me dangerous, and I'm curious why...

And I can get down with you being Endangered Spice. Fossil Spice?

10:56pm JakeGould:

Yo, that chick is on my couch… Privacy please…

10:57pm Caryn:

I've never seen anyone get that excited by a couch.

10:57pm Wakko Krank:

Radio Thrift Shop was probably my first, but Dave was the first that I pledged to.

10:59pm coelacanth:

i knew it! -sorry! again...unrelated!
i first called you Danger Bear! because of the earlier conversation about your possible retaliatory responses to disrespectful customers.
this time was purely based on your moniker,Claw!!

11:01pm marc:

My introduction to WFMU was the Glen Jones "Last Man Standing" record breaking 100 hours on the air. May, 2001

11:02pm JakeGould:

My respect for Glen Jones grew when I heard him talking about stray cats and that 100 hour radio marathon.

11:02pm Claw!:

I see, I see.
I think I wanna be Diarrhea Spice now.

V could be V SpiceLess.

11:03pm Jeezy:

Dropped the Mouse y'all! Now I gotta collapse.
Someone please post on here who wins the Velvets box set!!!

11:04pm Carmichael:

Just made it to the big show. Hi spazzes and joneses.

11:05pm Sean B.:

I experienced so much great music today on 'FMU since about 6:00am this morning; It's crazy!. @JakeGould I once told Glen Jones that if there was one person I would want to hang with it would be him he wrote me back with a sincere 'Thank You'. He is a sweetheart and a damn great DJ also!....All heart he is.

11:05pm coelacanth:

okay,Jeezy-that's cool...but one time i won a cd without knowing it & it was a sweet surprise when my invoice came.

11:06pm coelacanth:

Bear!, now that i'm almost done laughing...WHY?!

11:06pm Carmichael:

@sean: does that include Clay Pigeon?

11:08pm bobdoesthings:

Good evening, great show thusfar Dave/BK!

11:08pm Claw!:

Fish - Because it is hilarious, as your laughter has proven. :-D

11:11pm Carmichael:

This is awesome. I never would have expected this from either artist. The same Larry Williams who sang Slow Down?

11:11pm Sean B.:

@Carmichael Me? Yeah, Clay's show was hilarious today...
The banter between him and Fabio was priceless.

11:14pm Carmichael:

Yeah Sean. I mock Clay because he plays Starcastle and Cinderella, but deep down I like him.

11:14pm Dave the Spazz:

Same Larry Williams!!

11:17pm Scott C.:

Woo hoo, Bobby Comstock! Just last month he was inducted into the Syracuse Area Music Hall Of Fame!

11:20pm Sean B.:

I admire that Clay plays things that most Beatniks would consider very "Uncool"...; AND IF There is only ONE version of "Lawdy Miss Clawdy" to have it would be THE Larry Williams version...So Badass!.

11:21pm P-90:

the "other Wally Cox", sorta like "the other white meat"

11:23pm JakeGould:

Those women in the front row are too old for Jerry Lee Lewis. They’re like 19.

11:24pm P-90:

"The Jerry Lee Cougars"

11:24pm Sean B.:

@Scott C Hi Man!.

11:25pm Claw!:

... lousy beatniks.

11:26pm JakeGould:

Hippies.

11:27pm JakeGould:

This video of Mike Myers in an Elvis fat suit is terrible.

11:28pm Sean B.:

Ha...you guys. It's all rock and roll to me...Calm down. Lol

11:28pm sgt. macdonald:

I wonder if this Wally Cox was also best friends with Marlon Brando?

11:29pm coelacanth:

no-goodnicks.

11:33pm Carmichael:

He sounded way different on Hollywood Squares.

11:33pm Ralphine:

What gives? I didn't see Corbett Monica on that Dean Martin roast.

11:33pm JakeGould:

Baywatch Beach Boys.

11:35pm Sean B.:

Mods, Beatniks, Hippies...Rockers....can we add to the list?. On another note = As Debbie D. once put it "I'm as High as a Georgia Pine". Lol. (I'll write you a letter tomorrow, tonight I can't hold a pen....Jesus rides beside me, he never buys and he smokes...I can't wait). I Love you awl.

11:36pm Carmichael:

What about Mike Curtis? He was a psychopath!

11:37pm JakeGould:

Who is the nice lady on the video stream now?

11:39pm Gaylord Fields:

That was Keely Smith, @JakeGould.

11:40pm JakeGould:

Thank you!

11:40pm Claw!:

Woot!

11:41pm Claw!:

Stick out yo can!

11:41pm Carmichael:

She was married to Louis Jordan for awhile.

11:42pm Gaylord Fields:

Acrtually, Louis Prima. Or was it Michael Jordan?

11:43pm Sean B.:

@Gaylord Who was the lady earlier that was laying in bed with the Pill bottle and stuff?; I asked that question earlier but no reply.

11:43pm coelacanth:

it was Louie Prima.

11:43pm Caryn:

Louis Prima

11:43pm Ralphine:

Louis Prima. I had to.

11:43pm Carmichael:

No, Prima. You're right. Synapses failing. Or flailing.

11:44pm JakeGould:

Who the fuck does not know that Louis Prima and Keely Smith were married?

11:44pm coelacanth:

calm down.

11:45pm Ralphine:

Primo Carnera.

11:45pm Carmichael:

@Jake: <hand held up high>

11:46pm JakeGould:

Watching Little Richard and James Brown lose a bit of dignity on “Wheel of Fortune.”

11:46pm Carmichael:

Primo beer.

11:47pm Ralphine:

If Little Richard's anything, it's dignified.

11:47pm Carmichael:

Dean! Bay area checkin' in!!

11:48pm coelacanth:

Ralphine, you're not watching that wheel of fortune clip,are you!

11:49pm JakeGould:

Blues Singer Billie Holiday. Duh.

11:49pm Gaylord Fields:

@Sean B.: I was audio only at that time. Sorry.

11:50pm Carmichael:

OK, so Roy Montrell was married to Louis Jordan.

11:50pm Ralphine:

Yep.

11:50pm coelacanth:

watch this dance clip!!!!!!

11:51pm Gaylord Fields:

They are soooooo fired from their jobs!

11:51pm Ralphine:

My favorite Wheel of Fortune flub is "self potato."

11:52pm JakeGould:

“Self Potato” is a horrible St. Patrick’s Day slur.

11:52pm coelacanth:

Ha! they should get a raise!

11:52pm Carmichael:

I knew the rhyme for "read" would be "head" ...

11:54pm Gaylord Fields:

@Ralphine: Do you know of any other Palmetto State WFMU listeners? Enough to have a meetup if/when I take my mother to Columbia and Sumter later this year?

11:55pm JakeGould:

Quincy can’t stop the youth explosion!

11:56pm Claw!:

Wtf was "self potato???"

Self portrait?

11:58pm Carmichael:

Matt! The Bay area is bringin' the $$!

11:58pm JakeGould:

Our bodies, our self potatoes.

11:59pm Carmichael:

You guys are killin' it in Taipei!

11:59pm coelacanth:

Thanks Dave
excellent movies. very educational.
tchau spazzes!

12:01am Ken From Hyde Park:

I liked it when Homer Simpson tells Marge "I'm on my way" when she tells him to pick up Bart. He was just reading the WOF answer and not picking up his son. Hilarity ensued!

12:03am JakeGould:

@KenFromHydePark: That whole thing was one of my fave Simpsons moments. “What the hell is pick a bar?”
