🥁

8:40am listener james from westwood:

Morning, Doug, Uncle Michael, and all!

🥁

8:40am listener james from westwood:

Speaking to you from Sopranos Country, both in the northern New Jersey sense and the copyediting sense—editing a maaaaasive book on the show by the two Star-Ledger columnists who covered it while on staff there!

8:41am Doug Schulkind:

Here are some maracas, Listener James!

🥁

8:42am listener james from westwood:

I do appreciate a well-shaken pair of maracas! Heyoooo!

8:44am Doug Schulkind:

Sounds like fun, Listener James! My Italian nabe in Brooklyn was Sopranos-esque. If you didn't call mozzerella "muhtz" at the pork store, you got escorted to the border.

8:45am Doug Schulkind:

@LJFW
Shaken, not stirred.

8:46am glenn:

pork store? ummmm.

🥁

8:48am listener james from westwood:

Goes great with a nice hunk 'a supresat'!

8:48am Doug Schulkind:

Here the exterior of the pork store in my old Brooklyn nabe: www.flickr.com...

8:49am Doug Schulkind:

The rice balls were to die for. Or kill for.

8:50am glenn:

8:53am duke:

8:53am Doug Schulkind:

Welcome back, glenn! Welcome home, annie!

🥁

8:54am listener james from westwood:

I know ~exactly~ how that joint must smell inside. ::floats away in bliss::

8:55am Jeff Golick:

Oh, are we doing local pork storefronts today? Here's ours, lamentably gone now: www.brooklynpaper.com...

8:59am Jeff Golick:

PS. If all goes as planned this morning, we will be signing a lease on our new apt. About a mile / 20 blocks away from our current spot. Finding the new pork store will be top of our to-do list.

8:59am Doug Schulkind:

Nice one, Jeff Golick!

8:59am Doug Schulkind:

Give the duke some... extra helpings!

9:00am Jeff Golick:

PPS. Hi, Doug, and fellow drumdancers!

🥁

9:00am duke:

9:02am Stanley:

Paaaaaaaarrpp!

9:03am annie:

9:04am Jeff Golick:

@duke: a rare case (casing?) there of actually showing how the sausage is made!

🥁

9:04am doctorjazz:

Hey all!

9:04am Doug Schulkind:

Good evening, ausmanx!

9:07am Sem:

Ricky! Why can't I go to the club with you!

Hello, Doug, the schulkinder both near here and over there, the diligently unfufilled, tunesmiths, Mark E. Smiths, The Smiths, and whomsoever desires to giveth the drummer some.

9:09am Doug Schulkind:

Hoy hoy hoy, Stanley, doctorjazz and Sem!

9:10am glenn:

doug play the smiths? heaven forfend.

9:11am Doug Schulkind:

@glenn
I love nothing so much as a challenge.

9:13am still b/p:

The comments are fat with pork links! I can only eat a bit of show before shoving off to do some outdoor work before rains come. Sad. So sad. Friday diminished for the sake of a dollar.

9:13am Webhamster Henry:

You're sneaking in some electrical recordings.

9:14am Doug Schulkind:

Crazy rhythm, here's the doorway
I'll go my way, you'll go your way
Crazy rhythm, from now on, we're through
Here is where we have a showdown
I'm too high and you're too low down
Crazy rhythm, here's goodbye to you
They say that when a high brow meets a low brow
Walking along Broadway
Soon the high brow, he has no brow
Ain't it a shame and you're to blame
What's the use of our mission
You produce the same condition
Crazy rhythm, I've gone crazy too
They say that when a high brow meets a low brow
Walking along Broadway
Soon…

9:14am glenn:

noooooooo! i never want to hear that insufferable twatwaffle's whiny voice on the stream.

9:16am Doug Schulkind:

"Twatwaffle." There, I just needed to say it out loud.

🥁

9:17am listener james from westwood:

Excellent to hear, Jeff G!

9:22am Jeff Golick:

Thanks, @listener james. I'll rest easy when the keys are in my hands. (And even easier when I'm actually resting in the new place.)

9:22am Maggie B.:

Is this Give the Drummer Some Cannolis?

9:22am Listener Gregory:

Twatwaffle was my dad's nickname for me. I never thought it would spread beyond that.

9:23am Sem:

For every thing (turn,turn,turn), there is a season.

9:24am Doug Schulkind:

@Jeff Golick
I scrolled right past your initial message of good news. Good News! Happy porkstoriing in your new locale!!!

9:26am Doug Schulkind:

Today is my daughter's final day of high school. Free doobies for everyone!

Good morning, dear Maggie!

9:27am Webhamster Henry:

I was just looking at a Danny Kaye Doc!

🥁

9:28am doctorjazz:

Congrats, Jeff G, on apartment success !

9:28am Doug Schulkind:

There are no coincidences, Webhamster Henry.

9:32am still b/p:

At a Drummer potlatch there are pork portions, doobies, cannolis...

9:33am Listener Gregory:

Groovin' High!

9:38am Uncle Michael:

Leave the Doobies...take the cannolis.

9:38am thedunkel:

Good Morning Mr. Drummer!

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

Howdy, thedunkel!

@Uncle Michael
Just what do you think is filling the cannolis?!

9:39am Doug Schulkind:

@stll b/p
It's a protein-rich environment here.

9:40am Uncle Michael:

Clemenza?

9:41am Doug Schulkind:

No. Doobies, brother!

9:42am Uncle Michael:

I'm not sue I could wash those down.

9:43am Jeff g. via app:

(thanks, brother @Doug & @doctorjazz!)

9:44am still b/p:

Good handle for a health supplement hawker, “ Hi, I’m ‘Protein’ Rich, here to tell you about my best selling powerful smoothie plan...”

9:46am Doug Schulkind:

Sham-WOW, still b/p!

🥁

9:47am βrian:

Slightly turbid blue skies over the isthmus today, at a civilized 73 degrees.

🥁

9:49am Brian in UK:

Hello Doug and funsters.
We had rain of biblical proportions last evening. What's a cubit? (old Bill Cosby monologue)

9:51am Doug Schulkind:

tur•bid
/'terbəd/

(of a liquid) cloudy, opaque, or thick with suspended matter.

9:52am Doug Schulkind:

Crystal clear greetings, βrian and Brian!

🥁

9:52am Brian in UK:

Doug sounds like any politician worldwide.

9:53am Doug Schulkind:

This is where me and the family will be for not quite three weeks in July: en.wikipedia.org...

9:54am glenn:

turbid nipples?

9:54am Doug Schulkind:

I'm thinking of inventing a new cartoon character and calling him Bouzouki Joe.

9:56am coelacanth∅:

'morning Doug, Drummers, drummer sympathizers

9:56am glenn:

he can hang out with roland the seedless thompson raisin.

🥁

9:57am βrian:

Finally saw Kedi last night. Feeling feline.

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

Opa!

9:59am Sem:

"Icaria has a tradition of producing strong red wine"

Opa! indeed..

9:59am Doug Schulkind:

coelacanth∅ hell∅!

10:00am Sem:

Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, and bouzouki music always speeds up near the end.

🥁

10:01am Brian in UK:

Wensleydale

10:02am Doug Schulkind:

@Sem
Icaria is the birthplace of Dionysus! (Supposedly.)

10:02am Listener Gregory:

When you get there, mind your wings, Doug.

🥁

10:04am Brian in UK:

Doug, that is a long flight.

🥁

10:05am βrian:

If we were more organized, we would have all arranged to have some strong red wine on hand while we listened to this show.

10:06am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
We fly first to Reykjavík. Then to London. Then to Athens. Then to Icaria. Then then then then.

🥁

10:06am Brian in UK:

Metaxa will do (just)

10:08am Sem:

Oh, Doug. The Greek isle temptations are legion, it seems.

@Brian: on a six week tour of Greece some time agao, I was introduced to the Greek Breakfast, three small shooters of Turkish coffee, 3 unflitered cigarettes, and 3 genrous pours of Metaxa.
If I remember correctly.

🥁

10:08am βrian:

I was sure Telly Savalas was going to sing for us.

🥁

10:11am Brian in UK:

Sem love Turkish coffee but is so sludgy after the third cup.

10:12am Sem:

True that, BiUK. But, when in Icaria.

10:12am Listener Gregory:

This is not the Monk tune of the same name? Or is it the tune played backwards or something?

10:13am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
This is a Khan Jamal composition.

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
I can wait. For a strong red, I can wait.

10:16am Doug Schulkind:

The great South African Johnny Dyani on bass here.

10:19am Webhamster Henry:

"It's All in the Mind" -- Yellow Sub

10:20am Doug Schulkind:

Happy birthday, Marilyn, but sheesh, please learn how to handle vinyl correctly: www.pinterest.com...

10:23am Doug Schulkind:

And more: copyghostwriter.blogspot.com...

10:26am Doug Schulkind:

I am all out of seltzer. THIS IS A DISASTER.

10:27am Funky16corners:

Good morning! Sending the seltzer wagon over forthwith!

10:28am Listener Gregory:

Doug, maybe Marilyn is reading the album like Braille. Theoretically this should be possible.

10:29am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
Don't even stop the wagon. Just spritz that schlitz right in my face as you roll by. Thanks!

10:29am Funky16corners:

Just lean out the window and shout “SELTZAHHHH!!!” Like it’s 1926

10:31am Doug Schulkind:

Wasn't that Marlon Brando, bellowing SELTZAHHHH!!! In a Seltzer Wagon Named Desire?

10:33am Funky16corners:

Or Lainie Kazan in ‘My Favorite Year’, “ROOKIE! SELTZAH!”

10:34am northguineahills:

been Douging here at work.....

(hope to dance the Dougie later)

10:35am Doug Schulkind:

Time to make the DOUGhnuts, northguineahills!

10:35am rw:

Morning!

10:36am Doug Schulkind:

Are dubya!

10:39am Funky16corners:

I dig this. It has a kind of progressive rock meets Freedom Jazz Dance thing going on

10:40am rw:

Dee Ess! Trip to Greece sounds awesome. I'm trying to figure out a trip to Mexico this summer but my kids' schedules don't seem to align.

10:42am northguineahills:

Kevin Shea (from WFMU's Gig Talk) regularly plays w/ Mary Halvorson.

10:43am northguineahills:

Forgot we're still on a donut kick this week on woofmoo....

🥁

10:44am βrian:

In some parts of the world, they still pronounce the 'gh' in doughnuts.

10:47am Funky16corners:

Like DOFF-NUTS or DOG-NUTS?

10:50am Doug Schulkind:

@F16C
Progressive rock meets Freedom Jazz Dance thing is my thing!

10:50am northguineahills:

I was going to say, dough pronounced like Van Gogh (as the Dutch are want to do)

🥁

10:50am βrian:

I'm not sure. Ask Master Dough.

10:51am Funky16corners:

Donuts, the international language of deliciousness.

🥁

10:53am βrian:

Whatever you do, don't lose the 'h'.

10:53am Doug Schulkind:

Gough for Doughnuts: tinyurl.com...

🥁

10:55am βrian:

It's a good thing Vincent didn't lop off his Goghnuts.

10:56am Funky16corners:

Isaac Hayes cover! Nice!

10:57am Doug Schulkind:

Oh Larry, you big-eared beauty, you!

10:58am Funky16corners:

Reggae/aka covers of US soul are a minor obsession of mine

11:01am Funky16corners:

That should say SKA not aka

11:01am Doug Schulkind:

A minor obsession for you is a Niagara-esque spillage for the average mortal.

11:02am northguineahills:

@Doug, that's literally 1200m (15 blocks) away from my house.

11:04am Doug Schulkind:

@NGH
That Krispy Kreme, you mean?!

11:06am northguineahills:

Yep!

11:10am Funky16corners:

My favorite African name. It sounds like he flew in with Lando Calrissian

🥁

11:10am βrian:

Now that you get to may favorite, I have to go to a meeting. Ugh.

🥁

11:11am Brian in UK:

Humidity in the 70s here. Another big storm on the way.
Is this UK or Sri Lanka?

11:11am Doug Schulkind:

Lando Calrissian, played by Billy D (for Doughnuts) Williams.

11:12am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
Will you all be wearing Uggs at your meeting?

🥁

11:17am Artie:

Did someone say pork store? www.bitandgrain.com...

11:18am JtotheK:

Hi Doug, hi everyone.

11:20am Doug Schulkind:

Someone definitely said pork store, Artie!!

Hey-O! JtotheK!

11:25am northguineahills:

When I want to fuck w/ my vegan wife, I drag her to a butcher store (well, they usually have some stuff she can have (ie: Brooklyn Kitchen).

11:25am Doug Schulkind:

Here is a link to Gary Sullivan's recent GHANA special on Bodega Pop Live: wfmu.org...

11:27am david w:

I hope Ruth is listening, this would delight her!

11:27am Doug Schulkind:

Delighting you is delightful, david w!

11:27am Sem:

@Artie: well, that was a treat. Thanks for the link (!)

11:28am coelacanth∅:

it is delightening

11:34am coelacanth∅:

wells fargo should go to jail. directly to jail, without passing go. but the people look away while they cheat.

11:34am Listener Gregory:

If a child of K. Frimpon married the child of one of the Kumapim Royals, THEIR children might get the last name Kumapim-Frimpon. This is the kind of possibility that keeps me awake at night.

11:34am Dean:

Always read the fine print! When we bought our palatial estate, I reported several errors in the loan docs to the lender, e.g., details about another customer obviously copied from a previous transaction. The lender's reply? "Nobody reads those documents."

11:35am Doug Schulkind:

Greetings, "Large Print" Dean!

11:36am coelacanth∅:

reading the fine print is why i never do business with verizon.

11:36am david w:

Wells Fargo should be permanently restricted to running stagecoaches (after they give Doug a lot of money).

11:37am rw:

I'm nowhere near an expert but I think those binding arbitration clauses are pretty standard and if it comes down to it I think you can get around that and take them to real court. Hopefully it doesn't come down to it. And those guys SHOULD all go to jail.

🥁

11:37am Brian in UK:

Doug, love the Tim Yuro!

11:37am Dean:

SCOTUS just decided no, you can't take them to real court.

11:38am Listener Gregory:

It is hard to understand why Wells Fargo is still in business given what they did.

11:38am Doug Schulkind:

I like the way you think, david w.

I like the way you listen, everyperson.

11:38am Uncle Michael:

Where did the morning go? Top of the hour will be here before we know what hit us!

www.wfmu.org...

11:39am Listener Gregory:

A person who defrauded a million other people might go to jail for 20 years to life. A corporation...

11:39am rw:

Dean, no? Damn. Fuckers.

11:41am Funky16Corners:

Someday someone is going to write a book about the South African musical diaspora. So many great performers.

11:41am Doug Schulkind:

Absolutely nothing is wrong with groovin'. I can assure you this.

🥁

11:42am βrian:

I'm beck!

11:43am rw:

Beck!

🥁

11:43am Artie:

Credit union, all the way.

11:43am Dean:

@Funky16Corners: http://oskicat.berkeley.edu/record=b12789982~S1

11:46am Doug Schulkind:

Love the bass line on this number.

11:48am Funky16Corners:

@Dean - That looks interesting but I'm thinking more along the lines of the 1960s wave of SA musicians, like Masekela, Miriam Makeba, Letta Mbulu, Jona Gwangwa, Caiphus Semanya etc that left the country to make music in the UK and America

11:48am Doug Schulkind:

Hey kids, groovin' with Uncle Michael is an unadulterated pleasure! Hinky Dinky Time is next on your 24-hour Drummer Stream.

PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

🥁

11:49am Brian in UK:

Thanks, Doug.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
Jonas Gwangwa! He was the leader of the ANC's cultural wing. A beloved figure in my pantheon.

11:49am Doug Schulkind:

Thank you, Brian in UK!

11:49am Uncle Michael:

Much O'Bliged, Doug.

11:50am Funky16Corners:

Philly!

11:51am Doug Schulkind:

My favorite Irish poet, Uncle Michael!

11:53am Sem:

Thanks, DS, wonderful music.

Ελπίζω ότι εσείς και η οικογένειά σας θα περάσετε υπέροχα την Icaria!

11:54am Funky16Corners:

@Doug - Gwangwa made a couple of funoy records in the 60s (I think both for Decca, at least the ones I've seen)

🥁

11:54am βrian:

Still waiting for *my* home town, Flint. [Ahem]

11:54am Funky16Corners:

FUNKY not funoy...sheesh

11:54am Uncle Michael:

Thanks for the musics, Dougie! See you folks in the next room...

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

@Sem
We WILL be delighted. Thanks!

11:55am Doug Schulkind:

@Funky16Corners
Easy for you to say!

11:56am Doug Schulkind:

How about this funk from Australia. Yes, you read that right. "Funk from Australia."

11:57am Listener Gregory:

This (Lysistrata) is the funkiest song dedicated to a figure from a classical Greek tragedy.

11:57am david w:

Thanks, Doug! Delightified!

11:57am Dominick:

Thanks for another fine show!

11:58am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Gregory
New Grammy® category.

11:58am Rich in Washington:

11:58am rw:

Oh, it's the end. Thanks Mr Schulkind! Wishing a delightful weekend to all y'all!

11:59am northguineahills:

danks, Douglas!

11:59am coelacanth∅:

🥁

11:59am listener james from westwood:

Had a blast, Doug; thanks!!

12:01pm Funky16Corners:

Excellent as always, Doug!

12:01pm coelacanth∅:

Thanks Doug!

12:01pm Doug Schulkind:

@Listener James from Westwood
I hope you were wearing your protective outwear!
