Hello from the left coast!

good evening

hi!

YAY XTC!

We making plans for Nigel tonight, lol.

Good evenin' Commie Francis!

hiya bo and hi andy, my plans cannot be stopped by fire alone

I think this is a Colin Moulding song, darker/more intense than Andy Partiridge.

First saw them on the old Rock World show ca 1979

Woo hoo I popped in just in time to hear XTC!!!

great saturday night bops

pethie when you were on yesterday i was suspecting more and more it was you and then you spoke and i was like YES I KNEW IT

EXTC (not quite XTC) are playing NYC’s Sony Hall on April 3, and Philly’s City Winery on April 6.

vivien goldman is playing a tiny venue in philly the same night though!

i guess the solution is extc in nyc and vivien in philly

thank griffin! and thanks for intel david

This group should not to be confused with the neo-mod band Purple Hearts (I never hear them on the radio).

i have played them!

Does this program address the political concepts of left/right as well as the physical?

nope

One part of a line in the Patti Page song reminds me of the melody of "Trojan Horse" by Luv'

ha yeah i can hear that

Is there going to be a bathroom on the right?

well..... no

hi commie where’s vivien goldman playing this week?

century in grays ferry

thanks any chance could play in 10 hour ? she is quite interesting

murderer

yes! it didn't even strike me til now that it's this week!

Woah, good evening everyone 😁

The bowle Paddy Tunney🤗

Chris Rock has to go to court. He got slapped with a lawsuit.

left-handed?

no that one was holding the joint

Dang! the fastbacks! blast from the past

my husband met kurt and texted me "i met the guy from the young fresh fellows" and i was like WHICH ONE and he told me and i was like you mean you met the guy from the FASTBACKS and made him get me a station id!

HAHA! Young fresh fastbacks.

@Commie, any room for a request?

yes i just realized one of my songs doesn't fit the theme! what you got?

Night Time Is The Right Time/ Sonics?

i'm looking for directional right and left only, but thank you for the suggestion!

Ooh, OK.

@Commie, Right Around The Corner/ Detroit Cobras?

i think that's still like right as in just/only rather than to the right

Damn this is hard to get right!

haha yeah it took a lot of sifting to get to my playlist!

i thought i might have to use political left/right but i managed

Hmm, indeed.

i've got lots of alternates so no pressure

Struggling here and refuse to google

Evening all

hi Ossy!

Grammys tomorrow night will be rocking fresh, LOL

Hello Ossy!

NICE!

Hey Ambrose!

up next the song rescued from the reject pile when i realized 2 tha left by dynamic syncopation does not actually have any directions otuside the title

that polish song was an oopsy too, in polish "right" can mean directional right or "law"

All very educational, thank you.

there are quite a few languages where directional right and like constitutional right are the same word

lol oops

EVER LOOK AT A FLOWER AND HATE IT

I frickin' LOVE this song!!!!!!

i'm not one for parody tshirts usually but i did order this https://deadtankrecords.com/collections/shirts/products/i-have-lived-shirt

I hate the white smelly flower trees that bloom every spring, LOOOOL

"I have. So what?"

haha those stinkers

Just Bandcamped all the Neutrals.

neutrals rule but this might be their best song

super super. reminds me of melodic Flying Nun.

Yepo

trying to remember who at prb played this & put vivienne on my radar

probably dana

i mean is this a grauzone cover?????

@Commie, have you heard Lamps yet?

this is used to by wire sung over eisbar but i am ok with it

i haven't!

Horse cow goat pig, check it oot!

i will!

Dig Fake Fruit!

I'm late to the party but that Giorgio Moroder plays into the M Lapica's Sparks doc on Netflix. Wonderful!

sparks + giorgio might be my favorite sparks although it's hard to choose

I won't try. My mind is too small

Hey commieee...super showwwwww💥💥💥

thanks jimbeaux!

Been tuned in for the past two hours but been busy and driving... Excellent show Commie Francis, thanks for the kickass soundtrack!

'Where are they now'?

last week i played forgotten local hair metal, this week forgotten local synthpop

oh week before last

I'm liking this track🤗

that's cause it's australian

😍 the Aussies

cf thanks for the show ! :)

🌟🌺🎵🍀

good night everyone, thanks for listening and chatting!

Slainte Commie🙏
