Music

With rosasolis dream

roving about the glimmering starlit highway where the swamps and desert coalesce into the same murky darkness until you are comforted by the beacon diner off interstate 0 and manage to turn on the local radio and feel in company
americana inspired with forays into cowpunk, country, american primitivism and all those tunes where the guitar seems to twangle about listlessly

✩ˎˊ˗ 🎧🪐 arriving at the highway diner at 1am but im lost!! 💢🌙♡ & im listening to the radio andi miss you 🌸💗🌙♡

who told the fish they could fly

I did. I lied.

Dammit!

And I got them to invest in Bitcoin.

hiii tandy dave and everyone!! :)

evenin'

Hi rosasolis! We heard this track and thought that someone was subbing for you tonight!

yesssss the Captain 🥩♥️

high rise sounding a bit different tonight

And hi everyone!

hey

Good morning yall

hi rob and matt! we in for some country specialty tn~ the rosasolis way ofc

Nice!

Is this Ry Cooder Magic Band or Jeff Cotton?

Evening all!

hey there!

"fast and bulbous, Mascara Snake!"

hey ji, andrews and andy! ooh great question, its jeff cotton magic band ❀

from the deserts outside Los Angeles to yer earholes, Cap. Beefheart

Is Better Days gone or is Austin taking a break?

he might be taking a break! his morning shows were great..

I think he graduated iirc

His and Dylan Fox's shows were two very very good shows I unfortunately wasn't much aware of until their final seasons

I'm hoping for some Eugene Chadbourne

🤘👨‍🍳🤘

Rosasolis have you heard Nora Brown? Teen banjo prodigy from Brooklyn. She recorded old tymey songs in a Brooklyn cheese-aging basement on olde tymey equipment.

vroom vroom

Andrew WC yesssssssss Chadbourne! His cover of Nazi Punx Fuck Off is so good

The albums he did with Camper Van Beethoven and Violent Femmes are also awesome

TFUL282 ✊

hi chef!! and @matt i haven't but i really want to see if i can fit in one of her songs now... along with camper van beethoven because i almost forgot 😭

good choice

Awww hell yeah! It's square dance time

@rosasolis, it sounds great so far!

good to hear (◡ ‿ ◡ ✿)

Havent thought about Spasm Smash Ox & Ass literally since the 1990s, what a blast

the 90s were great in how weird the artistic folk got

HEY! The premise of this show sounds great tho I don't know what to expect tbh, makes it all the more exciting

DSM it'll be okay, baby

Bonnie Prince Billy, "If I could fuck a mountain, Lord I would fuck a mountain"

hii dsm!! honestly i have a tenuous idea too so ima try to play as much as i can.. and @matt the early 90s had some real freakout groups

Great Gallon Drunk album cover

Hey rosasolis! Sounds great! Get er done!

the 90s were noisy

feeeeeeeeeeeedtime

yesss jimbeuxxx

Meat Puppets?!?!?

Oooooooo peak Meat Puppets 🌞

rare meat puppets sighting on the notebook 🌞 i actually really dig this album

first released on SST

This is THE Meat Puppets album IMHO. The rest I don't really remember.

This is a perfect album

This whole album is good

meatbook music

the original MP lineup

These names from the past ... Gallon Drunk, feedtime, Truman's Water ... 👍👍

Rosasolis come to the vocaloid concert with me

Captain Waitsheart

@RD you don't play enough Tom Waits

in a real oldie but goodies mood rn... and i agree i really should play more...

@nekoggrrll omg ur not even a real fan of vocaloids

Tom is always singing about mules LOL

this track is shellin!

Lol Colin indeed

colin, straight xylo!

:((

looking at the show art, i wanna glass of red in a highway diner.

hii colin! i was going to use a shell emoji but i cant find one

🐚

rosasolis, we have shed all of our shells, there are none left.

I'm compelled to pour myself a big glass of bourbon for this show.

I stay in my shell like a MFer

except matt, he is shell boss

Andrew WC nice 🥃 have one fer me

havent had bourbon in forever...

For the sake of their strong sound and songs I hope Gordon Gano is never happy. :D

Andrew WC is having a "megapint" a la the Depp-Heard Trial

:))

there is good bottle boubon staring at me rn. but i'm sticking to my water

thats such a great name... gordon gano

Colin you are a strong man

....Haitian rum in my cup

YAY! VF

Nice Guelo ! 🇭🇹🥃

saw them in Missoula, MT in 84!

beer here, tho bourbon sounds like a nice detour

i know a couple of young folk who are stumbling on old VF tapes for the first time. it's pretty cool.

Makers:)

had a wine slushie this afternoon and I think they sprinkled some Valium in there, that shit hit different

Nice Richard! Meat Puppets have a live in Montana album LOL

yes!

That was vicious.

:-D

And now we're in a Tarantino movie

hi guelo and richard! im so envious i want one of those drinks..

i live next to rail lines and i thought that horn honk was out back. or wait, maybe it was... was there at train honk in this recording?

Holy SHIT speak of a classic here!!

Great show rosasolis!

@Matty and who will Uma Thurmon kill next??

Andrew WC love Vol. 2 🏜️

glad youre enjoying it so far richard! and @tandy right?? i needed to play something from that album...

@colin there was a train! i think...

Willie Dunn reminds me of Richie Havens 👍

Such an earthy, analog first hour, Rosasolis

journey music!! how i imagined it

colin, VF is a fine band to be inundated with!

journey music has this listener looking for nonexistent trains out the window.🤣

Spare us @RD! We need a set break. 🥺

No mercy Andrew WC

almost there ✿◕‿◕)

It went from 71 to 39 degrees today 🥴

it's still 61 here

Nice TAndy

Bahso 👍

It's always 10 degrees colder in horse country here

you mean prawn country

(We have a mother-shuckin' good time here)

Land o' the XyloPrawns

dem strums

And I ate very spicy burning shrimp sauce bought from the motherland African store, run by a family friend, LOOOOL 🥵🔥♨️

Lolz nice Ozzy

mmm spicy cajun shrimp

that sounds delicious ossy!

And hi Rosa, Luma Greetings! https://i.redd.it/n4qt1j1lapt81.jpg

The season of Thanksgiving

blood moon at 5am tmmrw... lunar eclipse

Colin - Tasty and hot, indeed and sitting viewing Gargoyles!

what IS this mic break song??? it sounds so familiar

love driving across the country!

TAndy this song is Toad Vom Bath I think

thank youuuuu

I mean, Blue Beach or Welcome to your Beach

ugh this album is on bandcamp but only on SOLD OUT physical media. no digital release. dick

Guelo nice! 🌝

DINER 🔥

Rosasolis can I submit a spacey guitar request for the show, in a similar vein to the mic break song? 🥺

Diner western omelets are the best. :)

Damn! I was just thinking that AMC fit this vibe!

turkey and bacon club is a good diner go to.

mmm diner pancakes

open face turkey dinner at diner, burger, bfast, maybe a club sandwich. At at a diner tonight and had bfast

hi ossy!! and omg yess tandy request! id love to play it before/during mic breaks :)

*ate

@jiano u already kno 🔥 and omg ill def try some of these dishes at the next diner trip

Key lime pie and strong coffee

White House by Ogre You Asshole (Space Dandy OST 2) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjDsQXACFW0

Lol TAndy great band name

Thay're a damn good band. I know PAX, CJ, and DJ Ringworm have played a song or two from the group

"Ogre You Asshole is a Japanese rock band formed in Nagano, taking influences from Modest Mouse, Fugazi, Talking Heads, and Can."

hot burrito #2 breaks my heart

that sounds amazing @tandy loll and yea we're weeping here in the diner booth

correction! Hot Burrito #1 lol

dope marijuana jacket

Mozzarella sticks with natural stinky bleu cheese!

me at the booth crying my eyes out while shoveling a homemade cherry pie slice in my mouth, as the sassy waitress asks "damn my pie is that good?"

Lol

LOOOOOL

i love how specific that is

😭

Speaking of food, there's all around diverse cuisines series with youtube star and vlogger, Mark Wiens!

One of my favorite things is creating an oddly specific situation lmaooo

The only time I nearly cried in a restaurant was when I was listening to New Music Hour and DJ Laeo played like three songs in a row that tug at my heartstrings lmao

It was always funny to me how a Sacramento punk group I ran with in the 90s loved Denny's, diners, these old fashioned American places

awww those FBB suits by Nudie Cohn!

Ihop pancakes are phenomenal and their delicious syrups of many flavors ❤💙💜🤎

You got that right. I'm a fiend for IHOP pancakes

I'm almost afraid to ask what will happen at 10pm. 😱

Ihop is bomb also Ossy I watched a lot of Mark Wiens series on Thailand when I was there for a month, turned me on to snakehead fish!

Got a really good pesto wrap at the Sherwood Diner a few weeks back. Home made cole slaw included!

dat transition

Sometimes I cant breathe eating pancakes momentarily, pancake lung er something LOL

PANCAKE LUNG

i always felt punk and old americana went hand in hand! and @jimbeuxx i agreee their drip is amazing

Will @RD pull a Family Guy and say "Here's Conway Twitty."

@andy mmm was just considering pesto earlier... and @andrew i actually have no clue for once :)

the punx love their un-fancy coffee places

This and Krista's "Trucker music" block that came outta nowhere are peak WPRB moments

Haven't been there for years, and I recall their 3 for free pancake specials and first got in Mark Wiens's adventures on random youtube recommendation, starting his trips in Jamaica, mind SOTC Selecta Jerry!

TAndy that was funny as shit on Krista's show

rosasolis youre killin it tonight im in a diner

Hey Elise! @Matt I was in my car in front of my apartment dying when she played the song where the cop impersonated being a gay stereotype, fuckin howling 😭😭

TAndy I like Krista how just went with it 🚛🚚

And Princess Elise!

eliseee <3 what you ordering

Matt that whole thing started because of a Conway Twitty song didn't it?

omg when was krista's show.. i actually have a few guilty pleasures and country and kpop are def there

Sounds like Fleetwood singing

@Rosasolis https://spinitron.com/WPRB/pl/16527813/Habitat-Enrichment?sp=334918337 ;)

Thursday mornings is Krista's show, Rosasolis. A show for parents/kids but one minute it'll be death metal and a 70s ballad the next, it's wild

Iris DeMent ❤️

TAndy yeah Krista played a trucker song and it just happened organically

Matt I just checked the chat and it was you. You were the cause of the trucker moment 🤣

Lol I was comin in hot on the big slab, smokey on my tail

iris dement and nanci griffith inspired this show!! and lmaoo omg i need to wake up earlier to catch it that sounds amazingg

jimbeaux harassing truckers as a kid MAO

It's Joni!

i was a bored country kid...we played with gasoline A LOT

George Straight -Friday Night Fever

looool

Lol Jimboo

I SAW George Strait with my momma once

Hejira so good

loving this show tonight

Don't forget, the total lunar eclipse happens before sunrise tomorrow morning. The moon will be in total eclipse in the leadup to sunrise in the mid-Atlantic, ending just as the sun rises, so I imagine it will be hard to see.

@diner_waitress_rosasolis ill have a tuna sandwich

Lol Elise

oooooooh how about Twisted Wire by Freakwater. Those harmonies will slay you.

Anything by Freakwater!

Has anyone invented country-glitch yet?

Tempted to drive out to Seaside or AC for the night to see the eclipse/sunrise

glad to hear that @dsm! and thanks rob! / jimbeux, ill def look for a freakwater song rn

@andrew i feel like somebody must have... maybe i have such a track coming up

😅

@elise i dont like tuna tho

TAndy, https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/trenton

Is Dougie Poole glitch country? Vaping on the Job is something at least

Nice, thanks Rob!

I'm not going to make an effort to see the eclipse. If I happen to wake up in time, I'll head to a nearby park. If I don't, oh well, I'll have slept more.

TAndy, you are in the Philly/Princeton area, right?

Yep!

this is a jamma

slice of pie with cheese on top, coffee

Yay! I hope you have a nice view!

Thanks, Rob :)

I haven't listened to this Lucinda Williams record in a long long time.

gimme a slice of xylopie with some 𒀞 on top

AY YO. LftWC!!!!

me neither! i just got this cd tho :)

I listened to it a lot when it came out

I just saw that today is Joni Mitchell's 79th birthday

Happy birthday, Joni <3

omg so glad i played her song then

Kinda like Replacements circa Dont Tell a Soul

Freakwater!!!!!!!!!!

Rosasolis, you're taking me back to the late 90s with Freakwater and Lucinda Williams

Time machine

so glad!! was aiming for a nostalgic show ☆

[ding] OPEN FACE PORKROLL SPECIAL UP

TAndy aint lyin

i have not ventured into the chat much lately but i have been keeping prb on pretty much around the clock in philly

Michiganders call it "fried bologna".

I knew TvZ would make an appearance

@rosasolis i've been good! adjusting to living alone in the city now lol

and now for some Rotterdam Terror Corps acoustic

this track is delicious

@ameena another reason to visit philly noww!

we do miss clowntronics 😢

this is perhaps incredibly online to say but i just discovered today that the new online stream player is capable of scrobbling everything from the playlist to lastfm.... automatically! i'm unreasonably excited

yes pls come to philly!

Scrobbling! good word

scrobble scrobble

Ameenatronics!!! Been so long, how are you?

omg no i get it thats insane, faster than making a youtube playlist manually... also the cat in ur pfp is sooo cute

@tandy julia reidy is great i highly recommenddd

it's my aunt's! hehe

I'm a turbonerd and I add stuff to youtube playlists by hand instead of using last.fm oops

previously if i really wanted to record someone's show to my scrobbles i would add everything manually thru openscrobbler

Goblin synth

I'm getting a later era Oregon vibe when they added some electronics to their sound.

We enjoyed your show tonight, rosasolis!

It's time to zzzz so goodnight everyone

g'night rob!

gnite rob!

Hi and g'night ameeeeena

Steve Tibbetts vibe kinda too

Good eclipsing, TAndy

goodnightt rob, thanks for tuning in! ☾ and @andrew thats a good shout omg oregon... how did i forgett to include them 😭 i also see the tibbetts

@ammena omg i didnt know scrobbling was an actual word...

one of the words of all time...

keep on scrobblin

Sounded like something in Pokemon Heartgold/Soulsilver like a dungeon or Ilex Forest, the last song

nice!

I have 2 wprb shirts and they are beat to shit, they're like battle flags

ameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeenaaaaaaaa!

There's a lovely snowy diner scene in Wonder Boys

jiiiiiiiimboooooooooo

If it's melancolia you're after, where's Leonard Cohen?

Or Kris Kristofferson

honestly need to choose between the obligatory dylan and cohen

vote for Kristofferson

I think it's more of an ennui vibe Rosasolis has created

yoooo

hmm ennui does seem to hit more appropriately

ill lookfor a kristofferson song

vote for another hour tbh

i could honestly do it

[ding] Xyloprawn Salad up

I'll have a big bowl of ennui with a hint of forlorn topped with a lump of regret and a glass of broken dreams please.

Lol good order

AWC, the special?

To go

AWC sawltpeppahketchup?

just sum mustahd

Someone unanimously voted for smelly condiments on shrimp, hehe

Oh NOW we get to the Fahey. Rob from MD will be pissed.

Cronuts for Cro-Mags

Dunkin Dognuts

i'm dissolving into the ether rn

This diner has good music

Glazed Goron Donuts, they should have, lmao

Stankface Fahey riffs

Fahey got a little doomy-desert-y there for a spell

Fahey always gets me lysergically going

[ding] FRIED EGG ATOP PIE SLICE UP
