2:40pm Handy Haversack:

Rex, I have been outside working since Michael S., but let me tell you: the show is making these sparrows *randy*!

Kate's best question so far: "So he had a pretty big collection of burp songs?"

Was in your neck of the woods this morning to hit the Greenmarket Rex.

Hah! I was there myself around 10am...good tamales, empanadas and more!

2:44pm gene sculatti:

Slate's great in 'Hell's Angels 69' (which, at the front, features a cameo of Tony Bruno singing in a casino). And, in the early 60s, he starred in "The Aquanauts' (later re-titled 'Malibu Run'), a sort of 'Route 66' with two surf-shop owners instead of Corvette vagabonds.

2:45pm Todd-o-phonic Todd:

Dale and The Uniques into The Marc IV has to be one of the greatest WFMU segues ever.

Great show, Rex...thanks for coming through again & again!

Standells Munsters episode yesterday. "A real gasser."

2:48pm Pedro in Arlington:

Crankin' the Paradise while cutting the lawn with a 60-year-old Sears push reel tank. While wearing the FMU tee. I expect a bigger check signed by Ken than the one that probably won't show from Cheeto Benito.

Brunch time. Thanks, Rex!

2:52pm Rex:

Thanks once again to "Ruth in the Booth" back at WFMU HQ for beaming this slop into deep space!!

Thanks, Rex n Ruth!

7:05am Ben McDonnell:

Hi Rex, I saw Young Jesse twice at the Rhythm Riot festival in the UK in about 2002 and 2005. A very congenial presence on stage, and I noted the way he invited, by winking to them, the house band musicians to extend their introduction solos as he was obviously enjoying listening to them as much as he was enjoying performing on stage.
