OK, it's not really a party. Just a radio show. But imagine!

don't worry joe let's imagine it's a radio party!!

I'll play sleepytime music later, but right now I'm feeling pretty lively!

sweet cheri:

joe, i'm lost in music also!

Ken From Hyde Park:

Tonight's selections are kind of similar to Evan "Funk" Davies' Indepen-dance Day show.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:36am
Joe McG:

Hi, Ken. I once did a set of calypso on my show and someone said I was sounding just like Irwin's "Muriel's Closet."

Joe McG:

Hey, Mary! Whose show am I doing now?
  12:41am
T-Zero:

Evening, Joe McG: Hope your 45 collection remained high & dry. Just noted the schedule page date is now extended to June 2013... due to financial crises did Ken decide to keep everyone where they are, or will it change later?

Howdy, Mary Wing!
  12:43am
amEdeo:

Is that good ol' Joey McGasket I hear out there in the place we senior wrinkles call "radio land"?
  12:43am
T-Zero:

Zelig! Good word!... had to look it up lol
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:44am
Joe McG:

@T-Zero: Ken has so much to deal with right now that switching up the schedule is probably the last thing he wants to think about! It's also nice if all the people you folks are pledging to remain on the schedule for a bit...
  12:44am
Mary Wing:

You're channeling Lamin and Rupture,I'd say.

Hi T-Zero, how's the day been? You never saw the movie Zelig?
  12:45am
T-Zero:

Day was wonderful... sunny and in the 70s... Nope! Never saw Zelig.

Hey, amEdeo! Yes, McGasket at your service. I think I've blown a gasket at the moment.

  12:51am
Chop Scott:

As ever...
  12:52am
T-Zero:

@Joe McG: That's what I figured... Thanks! Was just curious :D

Glad Ken did the state of the station, I caught it in the archive
  12:53am
amEdeo:

Well I am DIGGING the gasket blowery! Dancing along in my mind.

Hey Chop Scott, I think we have spoken on my cell phone right? (If not WE WILL ONE DAY! I HAVE FORESEEN IT!!)
  12:54am
Mary Wing:

Chop Scott lives! I was afraid that you were swept out to sea; are you okay?
  12:59am

BLUMIN!

I am fine, VERY lucky for once.

Wish I had some warm soda to offer you, but afraid I only have a cold drink with me here...

A cold one! Mighty nice of you to offer, Matt!

Julie:

hey, it's rock music
  1:15am
Matt from Springfield:

Let's toast to cold drinks!
Unfortunately we haven't reached the point where we can share food and drink through the playlist yet; but down the road, we might be able to upgrade the AccuPlaylist, into the SnackuPlaylist! :D

Hey, it's Little Miss Queen of Darkness! Hi Julie!

Hi Joe & all! Just got here, sorry I missed opening. Looking forward to rest of show, will likely be quiet as tuckered.

Hey, Julie! Hey, Holly! Hey, Matt! Don't worry, Holly, I'm getting mellow in the last hour. It will lull you to sleep!

so what's up julie & holly?
Avatar 1:28am
amEdeo:

@Matt: Oh my. You are talking my language! The actualization of SnackuPlaylist technology would mark the end of my non-WFMU (or at least playlist) life. Mayhaps such things are best left to speculation... mayhaps people were not meant to know such wonders as the electronic sharing of snack foods.
  1:30am
Julie:

joe's angels!
  1:30am
Matt from Springfield:

Mayhaps, :) humankind will just have to wait until they are ready for this powerful technology, and then will realize that it was right in front of them all along!

The Three Degrees! Fred Sanford and his crazy buddies approve!
And that 100 Proof Aged In Soul had some great bass!
  1:40am
Julie:

this sounds like a game show
  1:41am
Matt from Springfield:

I'd like to post something else to amEdeo... :)
@Joe: Just this week I heard of a soul group called The Esquires with a song "Get On Up" from '67--they remind me of The Intruders. Ever hear of them?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:41am
Joe McG:

Ha ha, I didn't realize that those bands all had numbers in their names! I love playing records like this.
  1:41am

Haha Julie, no doubt. It's ridiculous, cracking me up.

Avatar 1:48am
amEdeo:

Yeah! What happened to all those microphones?
  1:50am

Those are the ones! Really long with a ball of foam on top. I think it would be great to see bands perform with those!

@T-Zero: Yes, it's cool, right? An outtake of early versions from this UK greatest hits collection.

The outtakes are really different from the stuff actually released in the 60-70s, I think. Don't you?
  2:45am

I mean... the out takes sound more like his later works.
