I lasted for 15 and 1/2 hours and made it through Death Race 2000, one of the greatest films of all time and maybe Stallone's best. I also witnessed Astroslut's performance. I thought they played an excellent set. You had to be right up front to get a good sound mix. The back of the theater gets muddy sound because of the balcony. They even had go-go girls on scaffolding, albeit loose and unsteady scaffolding, about 15 feet high. Lots of people in the front were taking videos of Jane Fondle's voluptuous body. Some of the people in the back didn't seem to get the gist of what was going on, but that was OK. There wasn't many that couldn't relate to a six foot tall redheaded amazon woman oozing sexual tension. She really needs to make her own movie, or at least a band video. I hope she sold a lot of stuff and made some new fans. I don't know how they'd fare with a garage band, as they're music is very lounge and jazz fusion influenced (Did I say her band is phenomenal?), but they're definitely have some subtle influences in rock and new wave. I'd be kind of scared to open a show for her cuz this band has their act down very soild. They especially have a heavy Blondie influence. This is the stuff Debbie Harry should have been playing after Eat to the Beat came out. They are one of the few bands out there that I see using a Moog synthesizer onstage. So hat's off to White Trash Music's rock babe for the end of the millenium, one of the easiest choices I ever had to make. Catch them if you can and tell them MJ sent you. - -MJ Quirk 2/22/00 ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2000 09:43:27 EST From: SoundViews@aol.com Subject: Re: MC5: Thunder Express > Re the MC5 "Thunder Express" LP : Is this any good? >> Yeah, definitely.

If I read you correctly I think I gotta disagree.

Hey, this is a great tool, Gary. I've been relying on the Saturn V Featuring Orbit site's list for a while, and have cobbled together my own cheat sheet (not yet posted on the RRR web page) to the same end. But the apollojams radio links are lookin' real good and useful too.

How about this one? I haven't tried the live feed for a while, but they have a killer listing of archived shows... try guest hosts Zippy Caplan of the Litter, the Chesterfield Kings with Mark Lindsay, interviews with Jerry Miller of Moby Grape, etc. "Plastic Tales from the Marshmallow Dimention" (Psychedelic, garage, mod, freakbeat, surf-a-delic) MONDAY 8:30 - 10:30 p.m. EST http://wnyu.nyu.edu/wnyu.ram WNYU 89.1 FM NYC metro area http://www.wnyu.org/plastictales/index.html BTW, I gotta say, as we're learning with our show, archived, on-demand RealAudio like this is the way to go, I think.

I really dig the www.reelradio.com '60s airchecks -- it's a tremendous source, and the personality of a lot of the jocks is undeniable. It truly freaks me out that we can tune this stuff in 35 years after the fact! Jeezuz, it's like being some space critter pulling in these old radio waves from out past Aldeberan! I do think though that in the glow of nostalgia it's easy to gloss over the constant and overriding COMMERCIALISM of these vintage radio shows. If the netcast shows truncated songs, or stepped on the heads and tails of them like the "boss jocks" did I know I'd switch to another station -- or URL. That's not to say the folks putting out today's community/college/netcast garage/psych/surf shows don't have something to learn, presentation-wise. I listen to a lot of this radio (some netcast, and some airchecks off cassettes) and while I hear a lot of terrific setlists I'm not hearing much in the way of interesting patter -- a lot of it is pretty dry. Personal prejudice here: 35-40 minutes of unbroken music doesn't necessarily the optimum listening experience make either. Between Jean and myself on Radio Rumpus Room we've made some headway in regard to 'tween sets chatter, but it's not all that easy to get it right. You gotta balance out the time for tunes with the time for yakkin', and know when to cut the mic before you've crossed over into blathering self-indulgence. Personally, I see these shows as much as a resource as temporal entertainment, so we tilt toward livening it up with information, but staying away from the deadening, encyclopedic sort. But the MAIN thing, and where you can hardly go wrong if you're a programmer/jock on one of these shows -- YOU GOTTA LET YOUR ENTHUSIASM SHOW! Your love of this noise has gotta be OBVIOUS to the folks who are listening. It's gotta flow and be part and parcel of the tunes or all you've got when all is said and done is a nice mixtape. And as Gary has indicated, great radio is so much more than that.

I was right up at the front of the stage (my ususal spot, right next to Blair, right in front, stage right) and close enough to watch those fingers fly! The highlights of the show were "peroxide blond" and "my name is Deke" although I thought all of the material was great. For their second encore, they did a tribute to Deke's 2nd guitarist, Bobby Horton - a version of Gloria only subtituting B-o-b-b-y for gloria! Even their goofy takes were fantastic. I also loved when Deke (resplendant in old fringed western shirt with pearl buttons - grand ol opry style) Plus, they kept cracking the worst jokes... It was a fantastic show - amazing musicianship, great material, and really charismatic performances all 'round.
