Time for 🤡🧠

Biscuit supply chain issues?

love this crazy song so much

so good....

need....

thursday night tone-setter

truly an oddball classic, baby doll

not sure about biscuit shortage but avocado in short supply soon

this song is so pretty

I think she turns up on that old Khmer Rocks comp too

most likely!

Plenty of avocados here (King of Prussia)

OH MY GOD! THE BISHONEN! I DO NOT believe I've ever heard anyone but me play this on PRB! One of my all-time favorite Momus songs! These friggin lyrics!

i didn't know about this particular comp until lately, but it was quite good...

omgggg

He has a couple different versions of this. One without the harpischord. I like both.

charm is essential to misogyny. damn, momus, your way with words!

oooo i didn't know that

about the different versions haha

i love the harpsichord in here...

@AMeena - the other version is on Slender Sherbet

not to be confused with Tender Pervert!

momus moment

slender sherbet....

I hate a medical emergency that landed me in the hospital in the late 2000s and was due to see MOmus that night do a full retrospective of his career, and I was so sad to miss it, my bf emailed him and told him my sad situation and he emailed me directly a really nice email! Also, I have. momus doll somewhere in my house he gave me 20+ years ago! Important bric-a-brac!

And how can I placate the ugly reprobate Who brought me up according to a fantasy? haha, god

that's an insane story! now wondering what that momus doll could look like...

@Ameena - it has stubble and an eyepatch!

amazing...

and the only place I ever saw them for sale outside of from momus himself was randomly at La Reina Sofia museum giftshop in Madrid!

when did he first start selling them?

I dunno exactly. At least 20 years ago by my count! He got conjunctivitis in the late 90s and then a droopy eye and started wearing the eyepatch. There's more to it, but that's the short version. Long version is grosser

interesting...

the eyepatch backstory is insane

i think i came across a blog post he wrote about it at the time

This song rules

@Ameena - he used to have that blog clickopera, which had a full recounting of the whole sad story

Love this Chiemi Manabe

groovy....

ooh i forgot if it was clickopera or not, must have been it

@mark, avocados are going to be hard to get? Is that for real, or just in your house? ;-)

oh dear....

better stock up in advance of the incoming avocado shortage

Nice cover of the Tom Waits song.

Awesome couple of songs back to back!

glad you enjoyed that!

@rob it was recent news item that US was suspending import of Mexican avocados indefinitely & would lead to price rise and shortage so might have to stock up

So how do you stock up on perishable avocados?

i wonder if you could freeze them...

jk stocking up on that is a bad idea

haha was just playing off of ameenas suggestion:) looks like it all depends on how long import suspension lasts :)

Hi Ameenatronics!

hey ossy!

https://ny.eater.com/2022/2/17/22937237/nyc-avocado-shortage-supply-chain-restaurants-guacamole-prices now the biscuit shortage might be just as serious :)

@mark, thanks! We are very sad, as we eat avocados 3-4 times a week

hopefully this Mexican suspension doesn’t last too long

I hope so too, mark

🥑🥑🥑🥑🥑

Show is fitting the mood perfectly for this warm grimey rainy night

oh damn it's raining now?

was so nice earlier....

100% chance of rain for the next 5 hours.

mmm exciting...

Wind advisory through the night.

Gonna be a crazy summer again I can tell

Love the summer/spring like breeze out tonight, even though it's murky, damp, stinky wet outside lol

I could go for winter for another month. This unusually warm type of weather always puts me in a weird spot

kind of enjoying it but also very worried lol

giddyap meow ruff ruff

soooo good

dozy kitty....

That stock horse sound will always crack me up

The kitty sound, so kawaii!

🐈 🐈 🐈

no idea why those are in there but.... genius

Listening to this in my car as I look ahead in the empty pitch black parking lot, behind it just a small wooded area between it and rt. 295. Spooky mood

That sounded very Lynchian.

definitely lynchian...

@Ameena, my wife particularly enjoyed your show tonight! Thanks and goodnight

Have a good night Rob!

glad to hear :o) goodnight rob!

Okay I'm honestly too creeped out to leave my car and walk to my work entrance LOL

oh nooo

mmmm. Music box and lovely tones

One of my coworkers said he heard dogs in the woods next to the building a couple of weeks ago and I'm pretty sure what he heard was actually coyotes. Been super leery going outside except after 6am since then LOL

oh wow...

@liz yesss

It's nice going outside and seeing some wild deer though 🥰 I see them do that speed hop run thing across the lot sometimes lol

Had a fox on my front porch last year.

That's scary, Tandrew, if they're really coyotes! It could also be foxes, since they can bark like that, but either way, take caution.

I also saw some foxes before, one passing by a church and another one crossing the road. Some fox always strolls in my neighborhood late a night I hear.

Fox fights sound like evil spirits, especially at 3AM.

This is so pretty

Eeeeee, Andy

@Andy & Ossy - I live near a wooded area in Philly and believe it or not, there are foxes here too, lots of them! The first time I moved to this house and heard “the vixen call” they emit on March nights I thought a woman was screaming. They love to come to our driveway and one even stood right on our front stoop just screaming away

@lizbot just saw bill nelson has a new album out Echoes is playing some of it later tonight I know you’ve play him on your show

@Mark - ooh, nice! I hadn’t heard. Will check it out!

maybe add that vixen cry w the horse dog cat sounds earlier :)

@Fox discussion I see foxes on occasion too, but mostly running across the road or highway. I love how their huge bushy tails wave up and down when they run like a squirrels

New Bill Nelson, nice!

@Mark - 🦊 Vixen call would be more appropriate for a harsh noise album or power electronics!

@Tandrew / fox enthusiasts - I see them trot across my street during nighttime dog walks, looking impossibly skinny. My dog is so obsessed with foxes, she once BROKE her toe chasing one!

haha so rosasolis last hour (which is great) :)

Your dog must have been so excited to see a new orangey friend LOL

@lizbot i remember you mentioning that fox incident & i think stitch pinks dog had a fox encounter too

Thanks ameena beautiful show again :)

thanks for tuning in mark!!

@mark I always tease about PAX and rosasolis on doing another collab show for the next station event but now? I think a triple B2B set of them and ameena here would be the most perfect show

@mark - man, these foxes are vexing the hounds throughout the tri-state area!

Likewise, wonderful show especially this third hour!

Almost time for that iconic Thursday night whiplash >:)

add in lizbot & Dave for prog and it’d be an amazing collab w all four! :)

Wow, Liz, sounds like a foxy beautiful experience, especially learning how female foxes sound like! They must be quite friendly! ...Vixen the Fox from Fox and The Hound and Maid Marian from Robin Hood!

@mark That would need at least 5 hours of showtime then! <3

Can't wait for Dave's show in the morning

At least !!

They should do a Vulpix, Ninetales, Flareon, Delphox or Zoroark call, lol

Miyashita of the Far East Family Band, nice.

@Ossy - I never knew they sounded crazier than yowling cats mid-fight! But they’re so fun to watch trot in the street under the streetlamp light in early spring!

Thanks for another great show, Ameena!

Thx ameeeeeeeeeeeeena!

🧡💛🤍🖤 Liz and Great get together, Yoshiko Sai and Haiku, Ameenatronics

🦊 🐈 🦊

Good night!

thanks for tuning in everyone! :o)

honl

Nite all, wonderful mix!
