TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS TOBIAS

YAHN YAHN YAHN ! Miami on Ice!

🎶Tobiaaaas

I’m redrumrad as heck, TAndYyyy!

𓀤𓀥 High five for that transition. (I actually pondered putting Billy Cobham in my show today! Another example of WPRB hive mind.)

It’s like an argument spilled over it the chat

>:)

🪀🎄🐸🦖🌳🧤🥝🥗🥦🍏 green gang gifts for all!

Ouch!

I found it for mr through a rabbit hole online

Bolin ripping

Everything is for MrM!

This show is the best!

Hey MrM you forgot a green: 🐍

He’ll be back

Good morning Thomas! Just in time for the best song

I’m not arguing with Thomas

That’s for AddieTwoSnakesPlum, TAckyTAndy SMDH

🤢

>:)

🤮

The previous show is Fantastic

So glad I can listen from the start this time. My mom isn't a fan of the station so I had to miss most of last week :(

Everyone on this station is in peak form

New Jersey outfit 🩲🎽

Absolutely the best radio station so diverse

😳😱🤣🤣🤣

Lol outfit

L0LZ

Maybe i should have said combo

Ha!

Still applies!

Yeah

we silly

this is FRESH!

They live up to their name

Moor Mother 💙💙💙

Getting lots of airplay on PRB

😵‍💫

🏙️

🌀🌀

Do NOT look down

😱

I might be a meme master,but you folks are emoji masters

I feel positively egregious this morning. May have trouble falling asleep with all this second wind energy

TOBIAS MEMES 🏆🥇🎖

i like this better than i actually like vertigo.

D R A M A

Ⓜ️®️Ⓜ️

You can imagine your own movie to this

i was imagining a middle aged guy processing technical documents, it was scarier than normal

Depends on the documents

That's the start of The Matrix

dude i am the biggest nerd for the matrix and expanded universe do not get me started

fun fact i had a missed opportunity to be an extra in M4. Probably would have been the clones scene in the streets. Alas, the plandemic

TAnks, TAndy!

Alas you were not destined to be a part of the stimulation unoclay

Pandemic was planned?

Yeah, the machines programmed it duh. We're in a matrix rn

Maybe he’s in the biggest simulation of all

🙀

I don't think they programmed you though MrM you're a program gone rogue

👻

Ghost in the machine; that's you MrMalcontent. 👻

🤗

clearly the machines did not want me to be in the background of another movie

You always go back to hand modeling

⚰️📼

Another winner, MrM

TOBIAS MEMES 🏆🥇🎖

☢️ this track

Copy and paste, in case you missed it

Yes, Christine

guud stuffs 🎶🎵

Trying

Re last track: Applies black eye liner.... drops out of art school....

Likely

Likeleh

Anyone watch Letterkenny?!?

This song is kinda perfect to me

Not i

No, is it good @MrM? Is it about Ireland?

CANADA!

So good!

This song is very nice!

What is happening at 11am?!?

Except for the key change part

Early 80s superset

Very nice is a perfect way to describe it

1880s?!?

I will check it out, @MrM. 📺 On the teevee

I’m so excited, I just can’t hide it! @DJ JohnTobias

On TheHulus, Christine! Got it??

I don’t want to overhype it

I do have the Hulus!

I am looking forward to the early 1980s super set...!

Ooh yessssss!

And then watch the animated Littlekenny and the spin-off Shoresy! @Christine! @Everyone!

This genre always perks up a show

this BANGER!

Letterkenny is great Canadian humour yes!

Watch the other two, Brian D?!?

I think a smart person i met once mentioned this show to me

Except the goth wannabe kids. I fast forward through all their scenes. I just want the main Wayne crew. Especially sitting outside the farm stand on telling it like it is. They have that quick quick wit

The goth kids are brilliant too!

Figure it out, Brian D

👏👏👏

No. They bring the show down. Not good. Weak spot. I'm still working my way through Letterkenny proper and all their seasons. A few episodes into Shoresy that's good too

I met a smart person once.

All Away Lou and Mikey Erg seem to have some cross over members by looking at the two pics I went with

Okay Brian D, Brian D Okay 😑

Wayne and friends dialogue is all you need. And some of the hockey kids and older players. They have great lines too

Same band??

Rotating members i think

Curious 🧐

BILLY IDOL 🤎

Letterkenny gold quote: "It's like algebra... why you gotta put numbers and letters together ? Why can't you just go f yourself? "

😬 = closest emoji to express the Bill Idol snarl

Great start to the 1980s!

🤩 @Christine!

9 live guy that Billy I.

For realz

Hopefully, he’s done with motorcycles

Gen X tracks still make it on his set lists today which is nice

very nice!

Good stuff today JohnT!

Thanks, Brian. I’m book ending today withTommy Bolin. Insider info for the chat

I'm missing like half the damn box

💜💜 ‘🧩’ ⏰🔨 🗺🧿 1️⃣9️⃣8️⃣1️⃣

DSM your post is missing more than half the damn f’n words

Bare with me on this one

of pieces. he said my life's a jigsaw puzzle, one piece is missing, little jokey joke

Ha .. i remember this

Funny, DSM

I figured we were all listening to the same song MrM fill in the blanks

Thanks for the clarification

CANADA 🇨🇦?!?

A poor man’s Loverboy

Roommate at PSU played this and solo Lou Gramm from Foreigner song "Midnight Blue" over and over....

Yes, Canada, I looked it up to make sure

Oh, Canada! 🍁 🇨🇦 ❣️

REM covered Midnight Blue, un ironically

Ha poor man's Loverboy! And Canada related, Triumph was the poor man's Rush!

Mornin' John!

DJ John Tobias, thanks for another Super Show! Cheers! Kind regards!

A solo is yet to come

Thanks, MrM

I had some trouble hearing the DJ yet the background music stayed consistent, during a couple of mic breaks. Anyone else notice?

Did I forget to mention the sax?

The Sad Tomorrows’ guitarist plays in the group Lightheaded tonight at the Meatlocker (8 Park St, Montclair, NJ). The Sad Tomorrows’ bassist plays in the group Nervous Triggers, opening for the Avengers, this Thursday at the Saint (601 Main St, Asbury Park, NJ). Nervous Triggers will also open for the Avengers the previous night at the Saint Vitus Bar (1120 Manhattan Ave, Brooklyn, NY).

Mikey Erg plays tomorrow afternoon outdoors on 31st Avenue in Astoria, Queens. Then on August 28 at the Ale 'N 'Wich Pub (246 Hamilton St New Brunswick, NJ).
