Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:14pm PigeonsAndRust:

Dave's taking WFMU into orbit tonight, trying to catch up with all the WFMU listeners already there. I'll be listening for some Moon Mulligan!
Avatar 9:15pm CC:

I remember one time I was tripping on LSD...window pain...I believe... and I was laying on my back outside looking up at the stars and that.was the first time time ever I saw them in three dimension!?!... then the moon came by..!..
Avatar 9:15pm Richard S:

Who wants to go to the Moon and bring this music (or at least WFMU) with them?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:20pm loveless:

Stupid? No, it’s brilliant! Pass me the freeze-dried astronaut ice cream.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:22pm PigeonsAndRust:

I wonder if he'll play Johnathan King. Now THAT was a stupid
moon song!
  9:30pm JakeGould:

Hmmm… Green cheese…
Avatar 9:31pm On the Yazoo:

Pass me the "Space Food Sticks".
  9:36pm JakeGould:

Oh wow! I called it. Now I gotta play the numbers!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:36pm PigeonsAndRust:

The moon controls the underwear?? Oh...I better clean the wax outta my ears!
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:37pm Manana:

Nude on the Moon! That’s one small thing for a man. Zero gravity effect.

Avatar 9:50pm CC:

I remember that I was sitting in my average size bedroom in Ridgewood New Jersey 1969 July we just moved there from Huntington Beach California and... I knew I was about to become a sophomore at Ridgewood High School in New Jersey... of course being born in Oklahoma I didn't know what to think at that point!?!...
  9:51pm JakeGould:

Any April 1970 moon babies out there?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 9:53pm Irwin:

Haw, lunartics
  10:14pm Ochre Ogre:

Yeahhh lunar Lux!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:15pm rakka:

ogre: lunatic does actually come from luna & the old belief that the moon would cause occasional insanity
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:19pm Manana:

Was that Dudley Manlove calling earthlings idiots? Hard to argue with him.
  10:20pm Ochre Ogre:

@ On the Yazoo I remember Space Food Sticks, texture like Toosie Roll, made by Pillsbury.
  10:26pm Ochre Ogre:

rakka- Cool, it affects me when it's full, makes me feel normal temporarily.
  10:34pm Sally:

Just tuning in and very excited! I've been following the National Air and Space Museum twitter feed, which has live updates of highlights that mirror the Apollo 11 flight: https://twitter.com/reliveapollo11
Avatar 10:35pm Richard S:

Uh oh! Is the power going to go out?
  10:35pm Sally:

I was 7 years old at the time of the moon landing and watched it with my parents. Mind blowing! :)
  10:35pm uru boris:

Spent all day with wfmu . Love u, goodnight!!
  10:36pm Ochre Ogre:

@ Ken From Hyde Park- Uh... roger that, Half Moon cookies too,
created in Utica NY
  10:39pm yippie:

its moon ra
  10:42pm flashbazbo:

I'm just waiting for Elton.

(Not really)
Avatar 10:43pm CC:

Beatles mr. Moonlight would go good!!!...
  10:44pm Sally:

ha yeah "moon ra"...Too bad "Rocketman" is too seventies for this show, but yeah Mr. Moonlight would be great!
  10:45pm Ochre Ogre:

Uh Houston, receiving great show by Dave the Spazz!
  10:46pm Sally:

William Shatner hahaha
  10:46pm flashbazbo:

Elton had a song called bad side of the moon. It was OK.
Avatar 10:47pm CC:

Captain Kirk is really hard to beat!!!
  10:47pm flashbazbo:

Weird. I had no idea. You are playing an elton john song now.
  10:49pm UncleMarty:

End with "Whitey's on the Moon" Gil Scott Heron
  10:50pm Marley Dogg:

I can’t believe this is real. It rivas the Leonard Nimoy spoken word albums
  10:52pm Sally:

What was that Nixon satire between Shatner and Stardust Cowboy?
  10:52pm flashbazbo:

Did he make a mistake when he said "For man..." and not "For a man..."?

I don't think so. For some reason it sounds better.
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:52pm Manana:

A Shatner spoken word Nixon album. Why not?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 10:53pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Just drove into town for weekend provisions. The nearly-full moon is rising slowly in the east through the thinning cloud deck. These moon tubes seem a lot less stupid to me.
  10:54pm flashbazbo:

If he said "For A man..." it would sound like he was referring to himself, in a way that was not right for that moment.
  10:57pm Sally:

According to Neil Armstrong, he insisted he said "for a man." But "for man" definitely seems cooler. It's still weird to think that only 50 years ago we still used the word "man" to refer to all humans.
  Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:00pm Manana:

One of the top astronaut/peanut tales. Definitely.
  11:05pm flashbazbo:

Slim planted his flag on the moon and there is no other really.
  11:11pm Sally:

reading online about the "moon agreement" now ha
  11:12pm flashbazbo:

Rodd is God
  11:13pm Sally:

otherwise known as "The Agreement Governing the Activities of States on the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies"
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:16pm lorenzoelsuave:

O.o
  11:23pm flashbazbo:

Sally: Yeah. By the "a" word getting lost, however it happened, he avoided referring to himself personally, at the moment when he was making that step on the moon for "mankind".
Avatar 11:25pm BrassKnuckles:

Nice theme, mon.
  11:49pm P-90:

Bingo meets der Bingle
  11:58pm Sally:

Thanks Dave! Goodnight all...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 11:58pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Thanks, Spazz. I think you've covered all the phases.
  12:00am P-90:

Splendid. An um, out of this world installment, well worthy of the occasion. Bravo!
  12:42pm Helen:

Wowza! I am bonkers for the Reggae Dark Side of the Moon ! Then again, I'm just bonkers
