Glad to read that your father "had a good run."

9:17am adampsyche:

9:18am adampsyche:

on an absolute side note, my wife every wednesday at 8:39 runs into the room and says "hold it hold it hold it station manager ken, the listeners can't take it anymore" so that was refreshing again today.

🚽

9:18am Rich in Washington:

This is like a followup song to Tom T. Hall's I Love.

If I was a pro athlete, this would be my walk up song

I'm sorry for your loss, adampsyche

9:23am steveo:

sending hugs, adam

9:23am thormagma:

Lol I just saw this song in my fb feed at the same time you played it

9:24am thormagma:

Shit is wild

9:24am Ike:

Was that momentary dead air at 91.1 just a DJ issue? Not enough dog tranquilizers? Too many dog tranquilizers?

9:24am Lixiviated Life:

@Adampsyche
I'm sorry to hear about your fathers passing.

9:24am Mr. Felder:

you never call me anymore, Ken...

9:35am sphere:

9:35am Andrew Waterloo:

I was listening to Tipsy this weekend

🚽

9:36am Webhamster Henry:

Before the Accuplaylist system, I reformatted and posted those playlists of those DJs who deigned to send them to me!

9:36am ӻoӻo (:

I admire the people that can say King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard without some mnemonic device. For me they are always the Wizard Lizard and the Something Something.

9:37am steveo:

i've been bad, i've been good, dallas texas, hollywood?

9:37am Phillippe Bastille:

Nice! Was not expecting Motorhead when I booted up the computer! This is better than coffee!

9:37am John from NP:

Infest the Rat's Nest = best album of 2019, or maybe one of the best. Incredible.

9:39am Megaroni:

Sir Ken deliverin' The Fever!

9:39am βrian:

I read that as "Erotic Cloning." Hmm.

9:40am Andrew Waterloo:

I have not hopped on the King Gizzard band wagon yet

9:41am John in Jersey:

Can't believe you played the Great Kat.

🚽

9:42am Ken From Hyde Park:

9:42am Tom in St. Paul:

Bubble Gum Zombie – someone make that compilation!

9:42am steveo:

9:42am ӻoӻo (:

The King Gizzard bandwagon is full.

9:42am Phillippe Bastille:

Lord...

9:42am Planet Tyler:

I LOVE ALL SSDs

9:43am Phillippe Bastille:

10 to 1 he really doesn't have a gambling problem

9:43am steveo:

maybe you can get some diet pills from Linda R!

9:44am Nick S.:

gOOD MORNING, kEN! Sorry you don't feel well. - Larry

9:45am sphere:

@ Phillippe Bastille - probably a really small problem.

9:45am steveo:

9:46am adampsyche:

i met allen ginsberg when i was in rehab in keyport, nj where his bf peter orlovsky was in with me (1994)

🚽

9:46am Webhamster Henry:

I'll take Sammy at any speed.

9:47am Hopey Appmonkey:

Crazy, I was listening to the straight Sammy version just yesterday.

🚽

9:47am Ken From Hyde Park:

Maybe enlist the services of Matt Warwick or Kimzilla to co-host with Andy tonight? The show must go on!

9:47am adampsyche:

one morning i expressed my disgust with the oatmeal and peter went on a thorazine rant about how that oatmeal tasted like all the gold in the world.

9:47am Phillippe Bastille:

@sphere My guess is he's up to 3 scratch-offs a week. Totally blowing his Monk residuals.

9:47am Cubicle Carl:

no one gets me as much as remixed Sammy does

9:48am Spankyflop:

Good morning everyone.

9:49am Hugo (NL):

Hallootjes!

🚽

9:52am -Ken:

Andy really does have a gambling problem. Know how I know for sure? He denies he has a gambling problem. Yet he gambles all day every day.

9:55am zopa:

Proof Positive!

9:56am βrian:

Our five-year old has a gamboling problem.

9:56am Patty D:

Digging the show this morning!

9:56am steveo:

9:57am morphe':

Kenmeister

9:58am Phillippe Bastille:

@-Ken is he the one going to the Atlantic City Hard Rock Casino?

9:59am ӻoӻo (:

BEYOOONNSTEEEEEIIIIN!!!

Wait..whaaaat?

10:00am EG_Astro:

thank you for this

🚽

10:02am Webhamster Henry:

I'm glad there are still mashups.

🚽

10:04am yippie:

at the hard rock casino in Atlantic City you can learn about how the cheerleaders in the smells like teen spirit Nirvana video are actually called "song queens"

10:05am Aidan:

Love these mashups! Check out this combo of Kendrick Lamar and AH-Ha, it would go quite well with this set!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24l8n2hZkoM

10:05am Ike:

@KFHP@9:47, um... not up on all the latest staffing changes eh?

10:06am bretttt:

Any kid rock/billy idol mashups?

🚽

10:07am yippie:

they used in strange dialect of English at Kurt cobains high school in Aberdeen, which also burned down

🚽

10:07am yippie:

you would have too get a native to show you how they pronounce sophomore

🚽

10:09am yippie:

basically cheerleaders are called song queens and sophomores are called southmores

10:09am morphe':

adampsyche:
Olovsky made it to 1994?

Ginsburg used to walk into St Marks Bookshop -early 80s
choose a bunch of books and walk out
saying - put these on my bill
Probably Re-gifting!!!!!!
That was my thought??
It seemed like impulse theft???

10:10am Jan:

@Ken:That Earth Wind and Fire cut reminded me of the IFC show Sherman's Showcase-if you haven't seen it, it's a fabulous satire of TV programs like Soul Train - funny spoofs on all kinds of pop music and dance.

10:11am ӻoӻo (:

yippie,

This is fun to say: More years have passed by since Nirvana's Nevermind was released than the time it passed between The Beatle's A Hard Day's Night and Nevermind.

10:12am morphe':

Ginsburg ReDux: the owners were afraid to offend him so they let it go on and told us to leave him alone if we mentioned, perhaps, PAYING???

10:14am adampsyche:

@morphe he did, was doing the thorazine shuffle coming off of heroin probably. lived with him for a few months.

10:14am sphere:

My random shuffle dug up Ginsburg doing Howl and it was really good, all 21 minutes of it. Someone should do a "laws broken per minute" score for that poem.

🚽

10:14am yippie:

i just thought that song queens was such an amazing name for cheerleaders

10:14am adampsyche:

made it to 2010: www.nytimes.com...

10:16am steveo:

handsome fellow

🚽

10:18am yippie:

did Allen Ginsberg get aids?

10:19am Lixiviated Life:

Allen G claimed to have been spared from HIV.

10:21am northguineahills:

The Ozzie band Tropical Fuck Storm is relevant to my interests....

10:22am adampsyche:

he went by way of the big C: en.wikipedia.org...

10:22am steveo:

abbie hoffman is my eugene

10:23am adampsyche:

peter was for the few months i knew him a good dude but no one has dragged me harder than him going off at me for complaining that rehab oatmeal tasted like piss

10:24am Rev. Turnip Druid:

Present.

10:25am adampsyche:

respect++

10:25am coelacanth∅:

i remember some famous woman coming into a store i worked in and suggesting that she shouldn't have to pay and i said "so, you can't afford these things?" she got pissed and went to the owner and got everything for free.

10:25am FCC:

Radio DJ, when back-announcing please do say TROPICAL FUCK STORM. We, I mean, I won't be listening while you say it. I assure you this is not a trap. I am just a normal listener.

10:27am morphe':

Check out Eric Drooker's animation inside the Ginsburg film:"HOWL."
Drooker has a wesite and many images will be familiar - from the walls of the EV in the early 80s to the New Yorker - from rags to riches....

10:28am Ami Ad:

Hello D.J. Hello all.Thanks for the music and all.Hope the day gets better out there.Stay strong.Peace & Laugh.

10:29am FCC:

Forget to mention my username FCC stands for Families with Children from China (adoptive family support group). So please say TROPICAL FUCK STORM all over the air. Thanks.

10:29am -Ken:

I love Erik Drooker's art - always wanted him to do a FMU shirt

10:33am morphe':

10:40am coelacanth∅:

10:41am dave wuz here:

10:59am ӻoӻo (:

That reminds me why, oh, why Ken hasn't yet played Einstruzende Neubeuten's founder Blixa Bargel with Teho Teardo's "Hey Hey, My My" (Neil Young)

11:01am ӻoӻo (:

Believe it or not Blixa Bargel sounds freaking awesome singing in Italian

🚽

11:01am yippie:

🚽

11:24am Rich in Washington:

Nice to see the gif parade again, Ken!

11:24am sphere:

DJ Cummerbund has a YouTube channel and a lot of stuff, if the list of search topics are any evidence.

11:24am steveo:

I did experience a pleasurable or otherwise positively-valenced affective state and transient paresthesia due to the violation some level of musical expectation in that Mississippi Queen remix.

11:25am хtina:

I agree with you Capt Lou

11:25am kentuckywoman:

I'm pretty sure that Nick the Bard has played tracks from it on his show if you're interested.

11:51am steveo:

speaking of Horses, Ken, did you hear McGasko played Crazy Horses AT THE RIGHT SPEED?

11:51am melinda:

Without seeing the playlist I at first thought that was a Simpsons sketch. Reminded me of Monorail.

11:52am northguineahills:

@fofo: What about writing about a musical about the book?

11:52am zopa:

Hope you feel better soon, SMK. Thanks for the great show.

The animation for "A Murder of Crows", file titled "monsters concubine", is from "The Brainiac" I think.
