But now it's time to party

Hiiiii Commie!!!!!!!!

saturdayyyyy

hi! good show ameena although i was frantically preparing for my show for most of it

heheh that is how many of my pre-show show listens are spent as well

I never heard this song but knew it was the Left Banke.

they had a pretty distinctive sound!

omg.... love l'ombre dans l'eau

it's lovely!

tomato leaf notes in fragrance are so nice

yeah l'artisan has a whole vegetable note line that just came out which i am very curious to smell

That other French-pop singer, Jane Birkin, canceled her show tonight at New York's Town Hall.

The dead can dance 💙💙💙💙💙

pourquoi?

omg yes that vegetable line sounds fun! haven't gotten to smell it yet either though

i think the iris/green pea one most intrigues me...

i generally can't stand iris in perfumes but i do want to know what green pea accord smells like. the fennel one sounds nicest to me

Beat Happening!! YAY

ooh the fennel sounds interesting too... i became really into iris recently mostly because i got obsessed with lipsticky scents

Hello Commie F!

Hi Bo!

Great choices Commie!

thanks!

Nice! Lucifer's friend!!!

Hello Commie and everyone

hi Rob!

Thanks a million for this Commie!😍

Hi Rob!

your guy!

He was many's a guy!

Did anybody request Moonlight Shadow?

by mike oldfield?

Ya and what the heck was the singer's name ...Maggie?

sally

his sister!

i don't think i will get to it this show, maybe next one

That's her!

Ah, no prob!👍

LURKERS😍

Hi Connie and all!

Shady themes like Umbreon and Shadow the Hedgehog

DAMN this is sooo good, always adored Peggy Lee!😊

Vangelis... Awe😪

Peggy Lee....I think she was that Tibetan Spaniel mix from 1955's Lady and the Tramp

I'm a little uneasy right now is that normal?

are you listening?

@Ossy, you think eh?!?

Yes! that's it!

@Zapshifter, careful of the light!

that peggy lee album is the definition of uneasy listening

@Commie F. 😏

Ambrose - Yep!!! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peggy_Lee#Recording_career

oh yeah that dog was even named peg!

This band kicks friggin' ass!

Peg the dog, made a cameo in other dog movie, Oliver and Company along with Jock the Scottish Terrier and Pongo the Dalmatian!

that i did not know!

Oooh... Jay Reatard/My Shadow ???

3 minutes to go in the show and 3 minutes left in this song so........ sorry!

It just came to me all of a sudden, no worries!

i'll note it for next time!

Dig THIS!😲

Grond! Grond! Grond!

oh yeah sacrilege was THE BEST

perfect balance of punk and metal

Never heard of them... Sacrilege I tell ye!!!

Remember when the orcs launched all those severed heads over the walls

oh yeah GROND

Beautiful sounds eliminating from the speakers!

WOWZA! This is a rare one!

*emanating* jesus!😤

Hello and sweet baby jesus that Romperayo ruled it all!

i overuse this adjective but that record is w i l d

shazam even delivered a da fu* response to my attempt.

wprb with all the new jams!

as i play a 40 year old song haha

nice! i momentarily haven't thought about the devils anvil in a few years.

hey put them back on my radar.

Where did you find this 😁

it's on a comp called brazilian fuzz bananas and was just reissued as a single on munster records out of spain

🦇!

the genre of batsploitation is a deep and rich one

Damn, you found the bat emoji first

Lol, that is puting it mildly commie. :)

Hi folks

Nice, these guys opened for Negativland

in philly? dang

is the natural vibration of the universes the theme from batman?🤷‍♂️

llike when they were here just recently?

colin: 10% yes

i mean 100%

No in philly it was some guy I cant remember his name

margin of error +/- 90%

I got to see a few of their shows

Boils down to which Batman covets the highest percentile yield.

🤣🤔

Cumulatively they have paid DC Comics bills many times over.

this song is such a bop

Caught the first and last half hours. The glass is 1/3 full according to my calculations.

also been tuned in since earlier but mostly silent. getting ready for work -> driving -> at work -> FUNKY DRUMMER

OK funky drummer is gone, back to normal now

solar flares.

The funky drummer has the highest rotation rate on the station.

thanks for the show!!!

💛✨🔥

bad

thanks for listening! i think i lost internet for a second

fly

I had a crazy dream the other night where we could see a solar flare during the day. Shivers.

BAD FLY

G'nite commie.

i dunno if everyone heard me yelling at bill to tell him i knew it was funky drummer

Thank you Commie Francis for another TOP show!

We heard it LOL

i'll leave it in for posterity! thanks bye!!!

this song pops in my head a lot.

excellent!
