9:03pm Dave Conehead:

Cool dude.
Getting sideways by myself and need a soundtrack

9:04pm Dave the Spazz:

Hangin' in like Gunga Din

9:06pm loveless:

Hiya! Hope everyone is okay.

9:06pm Chud:

Mr Scott Williams, years ago you were talking about a true crime documentary that was made entirely of youtube clips. The Toad? The Frog? Trying to remember, it sounded interesting... Any idea?

9:06pm Scott Williams:

PRESENT! And glad of it.

9:08pm mb:

the Spazz LIVES!!

9:08pm vinylmonkee:

Happy to be tuning in for live Spazz!

9:12pm Scott Williams:

@Chud, thanks for reminding me of that! It was a great exploration of how you can use real footage to tell any goddamn story you want. It used one family's very well-stocked youtube page to make it appear that they were arsonists on the run. They were not. Here's the kicker: I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT IT WAS CALLED. Sorry

9:14pm Chud:

Ah, no worries! That gives me more to search for than my half-remembered plot summary!

9:16pm Marc in Towaco.:

Spazzilicious, my 10 year old loves the primate.

9:16pm Dave Miss:

Howdy all ya knuckle draggers from Brooklyn

9:18pm Tome:

wo woooo yea some gravy > bit.ly... < Dave so great now this is the stuff !<>!

9:21pm vinylmonkee:

Some day I'll find some musical cohorts for a Banana Splits tribute band.

9:21pm Chud:

@Scott. Nice! The Fraud!
www.ydr.com...

You found it, Chud!

9:25pm Mailman Tom:

Wild in the Streets.

9:26pm dave wuz here:

cheese it, here comes the fuzz

9:27pm Dave Miss:

Dee Dee Sharp loves her some thanksgiving foods.

9:28pm Parq:

Chud, the really amazing thing is that the subject family was completely on board, despite the dark theme. Not many people nowadays would be that broadminded.

9:29pm Lolo in Brooklyn:

Spazz is back!! Shake that monkey meat!

9:30pm radioronan:

I wannna holler - just got my reminder about the record fair. ugh. sadness. So big thanks for this madness tonight, Dave.

9:32pm Chud:

@Parq, humor like that is definitely in short supply these days.

9:34pm JOE FROM DC:

The world needs more Spazz!

9:39pm Ken From Hyde Park:

I wonder if the mystery of the unknown artist who recorded the destroy that boy song was ever solved.

9:39pm Handy Haversack:

This is on Sheila's premium from last year?

Also, hello, all! Very glad you are live and live, DJ D the S!

9:42pm Handy Haversack:

@radioronan: We could stand one Joey Ramone unit apart over by the big glass cube this weekend and cry?

9:44pm Chop Scott:

Sounding great Dave!!

9:46pm radioronan:

@handy I'll meet you there with a bouquet of broken 45 adapters in homage.

9:48pm wendy del formaggio:

Nice to have you back, Dave the Spazz.

9:53pm Handy Haversack:

This will be a sad date, @radioronan.

9:57pm seth from muddy creek:

Killer set right here

9:59pm Jeezy:

Dave... can you PLLLEEAZZZ teach lessons on how to interview to the other FMU staff?!! It would be appreciated...

9:59pm John and Wendy:

DAHHHHHHHHHH! We really can’t wait for
the diner to open so we can eat and smoke! Can you play I’m a Girl Watcher on the ABC label?

10:00pm vertual:

Had this g baker 45 when i was little wee one on the Colossus label

10:01pm John from NP:

Damn, Mr the Spazz, great set. Glad to hear you are somewhat healthy

🙉

10:04pm Pauly from Clifton:

Dave, you're on fire! So happy to hear this! Be well!

10:06pm mb:

Did Dave test positive for the 'vid?

10:09pm radioronan:

@handy yeah. I could bring a disco ball made out of scratched nickelback promo cd's. That might cheer us up.

10:11pm Manana:

Dig the whistling

10:11pm becky.:

Down in the cellar! <3

10:13pm mushroom:

Baby Crazy please

10:13pm Mailman Tom:

A low-fi spectacular

10:17pm Jeezy:

PASS...THE...BOURBON... PLEEEAAZEE

10:21pm Mailman Tom:

This song is killer

10:21pm cvh:

@mb: he had very unpleasant covid-like symptoms for a number of days, but not sure if it was ever made 'official' or not.

10:24pm busyditch:

Dave stop dancing you're skipping the record

10:24pm sam chan:

TIME TO GET ILL! ha ha

10:24pm Dave the Spazz:

@cvh: to make it official, doc said today that it's a 99.99999% chance that I had the virus. Dealing now with lingering after effects and hoping for the best. Stay well, everybody!

10:25pm Dave the Spazz:

And yes, that's me making the turntable jump.

10:25pm cvh:

so glad that you are doing better! what an awful thing to go through

10:26pm Dave the Spazz:

I saw the roadshow version of Song of Norway with Florence Henderson and Edward G. Robinson at The Ziegfield when I was 8. That was worse.

10:27pm Jeezy:

Davvvveeee
Is Classified or Junco Partner the best LP to start listening to James with?!
I MUST KNOW

10:29pm mariano:

Dave, dude, I'd push my grandma out of a plane to see Mrs Brady and Little Caesar live in a musical!

10:29pm mb:

Thx, cfh. Stay strong Dave!!

10:30pm Dave the Spazz:

Josh Paxton live streaming direct from New Orleans on the evil Facebook every Saturday night at 8 Central Time. Create a cartoon profile and check it out.

10:32pm Jeezy:

CAREFUL WITH THE VASE!!!1

10:33pm mariano:

I actually played bass a few months ago in a session combo with Josh Paxton. For a Mardi Gras novelty song a cousin of mine wrote (why pay for a bassist when you have a relative who can hit all the notes?).

10:34pm Dave the Spazz:

@mariano: It's a movie. You can do both.

10:35pm mariano:

Woohoo! Sorry grandma, them's the breaks...

10:35pm Dave the Spazz:

@mariano: that's great!

10:37pm mariano:

Yeah well I was definitely the bottom of the totem pole in terms of musical ability. Just had to do a I-IV-V in B flat.

10:39pm cvh:

good news re: facebook -- you can usually stream live video from them without having to have an account

10:50pm Stevel:

God, I love your Buddy Holly choices.

🙉

10:50pm Pauly from Clifton:

@Dave..have not heard this before. Wow...

10:53pm Sylvia's Mother:

"Ham the Space Monkey"

10:54pm Pedro in Arlington:

Spazz on a Thursday night and avoiding a really dull sports thing on the TV. America back to normal.

10:57pm Wilson.:

I love this song

10:58pm Giacomo:

love me some shrimp gumbo. it takes 8 hrs to make it proper, tho.

10:58pm ?:

Halfway through the slippin' and slidin, I suddenly realized "wait, that's Buddy Holly," and it felt like I understood a bunch of things I'd never understood before, about a variety of truths and emotional states.
I can't find Take 3 on Duck Duck. Where can it be found?

10:59pm Jota Cé:

I think the song is Missile Monkey by Ric Masten

10:59pm vertual:

Maybe check this out...https://www.savethechimps.org/the-chimps-history/ham-space-chimp/

11:02pm lorenzoelsuave:

I'd say like Jota-Cé

11:03pm Brian in Charlottesville:

I wish that was Barbara Eden right about now.

11:15pm ?:

I found it!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8bgKC7QX04
Thanks, Dave.

11:33pm John from NP:

Barbara Eden=hottie... ooohh I'd have been a very different Major Nelson

11:33pm Ken From Hyde Park:

I wasn't around for the birth of Roy Orbison, but I remember the day I heard about his death. I was sad.

11:34pm Roberto:

Colonel Bellows used to live across the street from us.

11:36pm mariano:

Ohhh, Col. Bellows was my favorite character in Jeannie! The urbane gentleman officer and psychiatrist constantly driven to the brink of insanity.

11:37pm Gaylord Fields:

Sweet Dutch Bride Fietje Ralston!!!

11:38pm Roberto:

The coolest thing about Hayden Rorke was that he drove a mid-'60s model mustang, still in excellent condition in the early '80s. I figure he must have bought it with Jeannie money.

11:38pm fietje:

Hello everybody! <3 <3 <3

11:38pm Stevel:

Well, Fietje's up late tonight

11:39pm Gaylord Fields:

Fietje!!! <3

11:39pm Dave the Spazz:

@Roberto: More Hayden Rourke stories please!

11:40pm mb:

Same here, KFHP. It started a tradition amongst my friends to perform musical tributes to fallen musical heroes.

11:40pm Roberto:

That's about all I got. I just remember my brother and me being floored when we figured out who he was. My dad was like, what, that alter cocker who lives across the street?

11:41pm TheLoneliestMonk:

glad to see you holding it together.
stay strong, spazz.
cya next week!

11:41pm Dave the Spazz:

@Roberto: Before I was born my parents lived across the hall from Dick York in Forest Hills.

11:43pm Roberto:

Nice! The apartment my parents used to own on Riverside Drive was previously owned by David White/Larry Tate.

11:44pm Dave the Spazz:

@Roberto: Naturally.

11:46pm busyditch:

Homer and Jethro with Spike Jones
pure genius

11:47pm zpp:

that fcc song reminds me of The Nina The Pinta and Santa Maria by ira gershwin and kurt weill

11:48pm Stevel:

Holy unholy unions!! Spike and H&J!!

11:54pm Dave the Spazz:

Thanks for tunin' in tonight. Catch ya next week!

11:55pm radioronan:

Excellent show Dave. Thanks Scott. Catch your show and look forward to mic break banter on archive tomorrow.. Best Skeleton Crew ever. Goodnight y'all. Be well.

11:55pm mariano:

Thanks Dave, glad you're better! Thank you too Scott, looking forward to your show. See y'all at Scott's!

11:56pm Dave the Spazz:

Couldn't do any of this without the Skeleton Crew!

11:58pm Scott Williams:

Thanks Dave, so glad you're back on the radio where you belong! Hope to see y'all over past midnite, where I'm filling in for Nick!

12:00am mb:

Thank you, Dave!
