Peace All. Virus from Sweden or Norway? They do death jazz metal stuff which is kinda cool and melodic.
STILL outa work, but going to an International Automation Society holiday mixer thursday to talk about automation.....and maybe snag a job lead....
Wish me luck, there were no new job listings for mechanical engineer near Buffalo....Yat-Kha is kinda cool with all the uekelele if thats what it is...and growling death metal with sparkly melody overlaid.
Thanks Ken! I get interviews but not SECOND interviews. I am off-putting somehow or indicating I will not fit. I CAN do the job, but WILL I do the job and FIT IN. Ug....its like being in High School all over again...
Maybe PIL from Metal Box?
Chimera (on Grass records, Cocteu Twins sound-alike, pretty awesome actually)
The Violent Femmes
Can
EARLY Kraftwerk.
Right on, PIL! Yes elsickdude, this is more of an Ankle Saw than a Swan Lake,

My love for Metal Box is eternal and unquestionable. But jeez, look at the time, I lost track --- it is time for some death and other extremes of metal.
FYI Nina Simone's original recording of Little Girl Blue on her first Bethlehem LP in 1958 was introduced by Nina's piano playing the opening bars of Good King Wencelas. The new remix isn't so new.

And by the way, that was the CD version of Swan Lake, obviously, because the vinyl version has a locked groove at the end. The CD merely has the last few measures in a loop for a few measures and then fades. Geek out.
Prague is a beautiful city! I also went to Berlin for a weekend for some visa stuff. Haven't been to Poland yet, but I was thinking of visiting Wrocław (which is not pronounced at all the way I thought it would be, hah)
@Ken - fun fact about Blackalicious' "Swan Lake" - it's produced by DJ Shadow, who took at least different 5 covers of "People Make the World Go Round" to make the track.
@Cliff-oh yeah, Wroclaw is VROTZ-swav...German for 300 years, stolen from the Poles given back at the end of WWII...wealthy area of Poland for sure....
Buffalo is kinda poor actually, but at least we can afford a house here....I will substitute teach, deliver pizza and probably one other job too....
@Cliff-in the movie Super Troopers (which is Hi-LAR-ious) the State Police have maple syrup chugging competitions. Its enough to induced sympathetic diabetic shock.
This Bills Like Jean Spirit is kinda cool! these two songs fit like Down By the River (Neil Young) and one of those Pink Floyd songs from Dark Side of the Moon.....
We live with a bosco dobbleganger, Gusto, i've been laying into him pretty hard about his inability to successfully eat squirrels/win the WFMu crown. He's making marked improvements, but he a bit more of lover. Just saying, he could fill in for Bosco and no one would be able to tell.
We've got falcons that leave pigeon heads lying around outside our windows up here on the 26th floor of my office building in Zone 5, but no squirrel heads. Bosco, can you compete with that?! Where are your pigeon heads?!
Wayne Butane is 100% hilarious. I am laughing out loud in the library here in Lockport, NY. WOW. I do NOT recognize the name of the news announcer...is it you, Ken?
@Aaron - Zats, sorry to hear all that. You should have a little hand-held device that shouts out curses at the push of a button for such occasions, saving you the work of typing it out.
Also, Voivod! !! !!!

I'm happy Wayne Butane's song is becoming a Xmas tradition in here.
Oh I get it! The Seal is the American people and the Shark is The Donald...Soon the whole Country will "get it" and that's when the S...will really hit the fan...

Years ago Stephen Hawking's "A brief history of time" ended with some reference to knowing 'the Mind of God', which got some attention. About one month later I was at a cosmology conference at which Stephen was the keynote speaker. In the mixer before that speech, a reporter came up to him and asked if he believed in God. Stephen answered ONE SECOND later 'I do not believe in a personal God.' and smiled. I turned to my wife and said 'He had _that_ one ready. Smart'. which last is funny when a physicist says it about Stephen.
@MW, the episode of Andrea's Why Oh Why podcast (now on Radiotopia or something) from the day after the election said something like, "We want to hear from you. Have ex-boyfriends been coming out of the woodwork looking for pre-apocalypse hookups?"
On RadioGarden, we got reception from the neighbor's baby monitor.

Hey, Ken!
I understand you take over the 6a-9am slot for one week in few weeks time. Would that mean that week's Wednesday is going to be a 6-hour long Ken show?
I guess what I am trying to say is, can we DON'T have a 6-hour long Bohemian Rhapsody show during that day?
It's true, the week of Jan 2, I will be on the air every morning from 6-9am, and that wed, Jan 4, from 6am to Noon. Good thing I have a few weeks to prepare for that week.
Ha! I can't beleive you are playing this. I haven't heard this song since we studied it to do our Horsey cover of it for Kurts Lou Reed tribute! Thanks for bringing it back Ken,
I don’t like the way Bosco has picked a wet food executive to be secretary of agriculture. And given how much effort NASA has put into figuring out where laser pointer dots come from, it’s ignorant to cut their funding.
