YAY!!!! Commie tunes!!!

Finally.. Saturday.....

s s s saturday

f f f fastbacks

should i go hang out in asbury til i find the boss and ask him myself?

HA! Yes

Hello Commie!

hi Bo!

This is the bloody Bee Gees?! Far out!

60s and early 70s bee gees rules!

Liked that Chosen Few song a lot

the stiff richards version is killer too. and the le shok version!

*noted, thank you!

That Flying Lizards was sweeet!

i love it and it cracks me up. also this one i'm playing now

"Just surfing"

This must be a Ventures cover...

Love the Fat Tulips :)

Ahhh Yeah - delicious

i can't remember which button on my mixer is airhorn i'm afraid

@Commie, I dare ya!🤔

it will be like dog bark dog bark dog bark maybe airhorn

there we go

Saturday Lively, like wdas dj Mimi Brown and Cutmaster Butter til 2am

Ha! Airhorn it is

I'm down with the dog bark ...wait WHA!?#

Nice Ambrose!

Yo richard!😀

I was like "oh no, I missed Commie playing my favorite band Die Todliche Doris!", but I think Die Todliche Dosis is a different band?

Yay, Sunday Commie! Amen.

yeah this is a comp with that name!

die todliche doris is a pun

i guess it's kind of a common german phrase?

This white stain is making me want to goblin mode

aaaaand the TAndy curse

Super good...and short

die todliche means the deadly, and one is the deadly dose,and the other is the deadly doris.

but yeah, I never realized die todliche doris was a pun event though I'm a super fan of that band.

Hey hey Ambrose, TAndy and Ossy!

tandy if you stay awake i will have more gobliny songs after 10

Where do we find Molto Brutto - "Surfing"?

well https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/2326328?ev=rb

THIS😍

Dang! Mixcloud it is. Thank you DJCF :)

...and this😍

I wonder if this the same Molto Brutto

https://moltobrutto.bandcamp.com/album/ii

i believe it is

Nice, the show with 2 BCR songs!!

yep andreas kunzmann

Aw bejaysus!👀

Fill em up quick again boys

You pronounced it correctly Commie, Tommy Makem's mother lived next door to my Uncle Pat in Keady, County Armagh.

dog bless your research on the fly...

queen of WHY DIDN'T I LOOK THIS UP

i have such a clicky keyboard too it's a mechanical keyboard i bought on purpose!!!

nits nittin' and nats nattin'

haha that stuck out to me too

research never stops until we're dead

Mayyybee that's your problem. Try an AI keyboard. (hopefully they don't have those)

Beach coma - after you've said, "Fill em up quick again boys." too many times

Ahh yeah turn it upppp

I like summer, but I definitely don't want it to last forever!

i hate it, i like summer music though

Lou Christie Rules OK

i especially hate it right now, it's been unbearable in philly!

lou christie from PITTSBURGH

lol thise summer songs offer false promises but they don't mention insect bites, plant rashes, elevated dew points.... on and on

that's why the dead milkmen needed to make the beach song

BOOM BOOM

HA Colin!

I didn't know that @ Commie, I remember In The Avenues And Alleyways was the theme music to a British TV Show when I was a very wee one and haven't forgot it!

...forgot to remember😂

that's tony christie!

but now i'm intrigued because rancid has a song called that

Laissons entrer le Soleil!

ARGHH! But of course!😖

A spring song

😎

⚡⚡⚡

😎

VU :)

Didn't know about this cover

⚡️⚡️⚡️

this is hopefully kind of a "didn't know about this cover" set.

The Spider. YAY

Robson was kinda good yes?

yeah he was pretty alright

*Ronson

secret theme with in the themeless portion of the show

Marc bongo Bolan

HA Colin! You found the "egg"

fantastic! who wants an omelette?

and now bruce springsteen covering the magnetic fields

P.I. that shite CF :D

tbh, i was all in on that springsteen idea

Paul Drake that

springsteen is like olives to me. supposed to be great, i keep trying it out and always the same nasty results.

No egg omelette!

imagines no egg omelette, also imagines a pan with nothing more than salt and pepper burning away in the oil. no eggs

Play some K records if it works tomorrow

some rose melberg and adjacent?

i will play some k tonight actually i think

One of my new favorite purchases along with the Naturals

*VC

i feel about the same about springsteen. he seems like a quality person! but his music eh

yeah for some reason this needed to grow on me but now i love it and need to get it

@Commie, dito.

nebraska is all right and really cool how influenced by alan vega he was but the magnetic fields song is my favorite thing i have ever heard from him

modey is from the Burgh?!? nice😎

this rips

yeah i used to see them all the time! awesome band who never got as big as they should have!

they did a joint record release show with the white stripes and we see how that went!

I had a good time seeing Calvin Johnson and Doug Martsch in Boise in the 90s

earlier tonight i was making a list in my head of reasons to get out there. I saw there was a show tonight that looked rad

skullfest!

the list of reasons for me to go to pittsburgh gets long pretty fast. I'm not from there, only a philly boy who loves that town.

This is super interesting

just some austro-turkish hip hop!

@Colin, Don a Flyers jersey and then tell me how much you like it!🤔

HA Colin and Ambrose! hmmm CF. Good in this context

I do rep the flyers when i'm out there. but i do it sneaky. a small pin, socks. always the Gritty boxers.

@Colin, you had me at "Gritty boxers"🤣

@Colin, have you tried Cleveland?

gritting my teeth at the idea

Oh you will somehow "rock it"

never been to cleveland, have experienced county ohio tho.

all the little girls with the crimson lips say mc kees rocks mc kees rocks

GOODBYE EVERYONE'S BUTTS

YEP. bought it

so good

@Colin, Cleveland Ballroom was the HOT spot!

haha!! Thanks for the work Commie!

@Commie, this is a welcome song.

Aren't you gonna ask me what I did today?"

t hanks for the show!

looking forward to tomorrow - cheers all

Great show as always Commie F. Thank YOU!

thanks good night!!!!

pretty sure i'll be listening to wprb forever.

still got like an hour and half of music to pull for tomorrow aieeee

Peace!!

must find long mellow songs
