Jon Solomon 3:12:17 PM
THIS IS A GOOD SURPRISE.
Dan Ruccia 3:12:34 PM
Dana K!!!!
Dana K (host) 3:13:08 PM
whoop!
Zach 3:13:11 PM
I just wooed out loud to myself when Dana K came on
Ossy 3:14:05 PM
Everything about that person is stinky chemical, lol
Dana K (host) 3:15:00 PM
I'm BLUSHING
Dana K (host) 3:15:07 PM
you're all my valentines
Jon Solomon 3:15:58 PM
I was picking up a library book at the end of Wilbo's show (which ruled) and when I got back in the car it was just as The Desperate Bicycles started and I was psyched.
Dana K (host) 3:17:38 PM
hell yeah
yoni from kdu 3:21:53 PM
YES! BAND CARDIACS!!
sorry it's andrew 3:22:13 PM
no one ever plays cardiacs! hell yeah dana!
Tomi 3:22:57 PM
Omg Cardiacs!!!
Colin 3:23:10 PM
volume just got notched up so anybody working outside or near my office gets to listen to the cardiacs as well
Dana K (host) 3:23:34 PM
i'm so happy cardiacs are getting the response they deserve! tim smith forever
sorry it's andrew 3:23:55 PM
💚
Dan Ruccia 3:24:47 PM
Yeah more Cardiacs
sorry it's andrew 3:24:48 PM
sadly tim quy just passed too
Tomi 3:25:13 PM
I’m obsessed with Oceansize and their lead singer Mike Vennart, a descendent of that scene. They played live with Tim Smith a few times I believe.
Dana K (host) 3:26:20 PM
yeah, and he suffered from a stroke for maybe a decade before he finally passed. absolute genius.
ǝɹnɔsqꓳ ǝɥꓕ ǝʌɐꓷ 3:27:54 PM
They created a brilliant blend of punk and prog (pronk).
Dan Ruccia 3:28:51 PM
Kinda sound like MX-80, too
Ambrose Hughes 3:33:29 PM
Oh Hey Dana K! I"m so sorry to here all this horrible news.
Liz Bot 3:36:23 PM
Glad you’re feeling better!
Ossy 3:37:42 PM
Sorry to hear, what you went through. Good to hear you today!
richard lyons :) 3:38:52 PM
Would love to see them both again!
sorry it's andrew 3:39:08 PM
codeine and barb m are playing at irving plaza too!
Dana K (host) 3:39:31 PM
i think tickets are on sale tomorrow, not gonna waste time
sorry it's andrew 3:39:33 PM
on april 15th. scored tickets this morning
Dana K (host) 3:42:00 PM
is there a presale code?
sorry it's andrew 3:43:09 PM
i dont if theres a code for the underground arts show, but for nyc it's "chorus"
yoni from kdu 3:52:16 PM
Hell yeah
yoni from kdu 3:52:35 PM
A perfect song
Dana K (host) 3:53:01 PM
in dedication to the unfortunately named weed yoni found
Jon Solomon 3:53:39 PM
Now you have a name for your earring.
Dana K (host) 3:54:14 PM
now i can wear it!
yoni from kdu 3:56:01 PM
Always disconcerting how this track ends
TAndy WæstCoast 4:12:47 PM
Ohi Dana K and friends
Colin 4:14:08 PM
my boss, if he ever checks out my work compy web history, is gonna learn about the memluks too.
Dana K (host) 4:14:30 PM
he's going to block all pages about the memluks
Dana K (host) 4:14:55 PM
all...two of them
Pat in South Philly 4:16:35 PM
Yo Dana! Cool stuff that Memluks. I thought that was James chance.
Colin 4:17:06 PM
either that or he's gonna come in with a memluk t-shirt on.
Dana K (host) 4:18:15 PM
they were from norman, OK!
yoni from kdu 4:18:47 PM
This is very weird stuff to listen to while wandering around the grocery store
yoni from kdu 4:18:55 PM
Anyone need anything?
Dana K (host) 4:19:17 PM
i still need a danish
Pat in South Philly 4:20:15 PM
Ah yes of course they were. Where else would they be from?! Just a couple of Normies from Okie.
TAndy WæstCoast 4:20:56 PM
Macula Dog rules
yoni from kdu 4:21:44 PM
Tasty Bites are BOGO but I don't think they have danish flavor
Dana K (host) 4:23:12 PM
get me some channa masalas
Dana K (host) 4:23:22 PM
pls
yoni from kdu 4:25:31 PM
That's not a danish
Dana K (host) 4:27:04 PM
then i want a danish
Colin 4:27:15 PM
i kinda think a channa masala danish may be good.
Ossy 4:28:04 PM
I love danishes, especially jelly ones!
yoni from kdu 4:29:04 PM
An abomination. God would punish us and we'd deserve it.
Colin 4:31:57 PM
getting punished by god with channa masala danish in my belly sounds like a win to me
Dan Ruccia 4:32:48 PM
Chana Masala Danish would be a kind of terrible band name
Colin 4:34:24 PM
the mix of 1980's tracks and the 2020's tracks of that past set worked great like a channa masala danish
Colin 4:34:43 PM
agrees with Dan
Dan Ruccia 4:35:46 PM
Chana Masala Hot Dog, however, would be fantastic
Dan Ruccia 4:36:28 PM
(as a band name, not food)
Dana K (host) 4:36:33 PM
you're all talking about these things and not bringing me them
Colin 4:37:33 PM
i'm the first shazam on the catalogue track!
jimboo 4:38:22 PM
Happy V-Day DanaK and all you other ragamuffins!
Colin 4:38:49 PM
if they show up, i use shazam as my list of bands i want to explore further.
Dana K (host) 4:39:17 PM
thanks, djimbo!
Bud Burroughs 4:39:32 PM
An Indian friend of mine occasionally makes Masala hot dogs. They're quite delicious!
Colin 4:39:47 PM
jim, today we are ragamuffins, but tomorrow we are curry croissants.
Dan Ruccia 4:40:29 PM
I bet they are, Bud!
yoni from kdu 4:42:18 PM
I told you to hook up your side of the danish zip line but nooooooo
Ossy 4:42:29 PM
Wednesday mac and cheesin!
yoni from kdu 4:42:58 PM
One of the less well-known lines from the Cure song
yoni from kdu 4:45:46 PM
HBCF
Bud Burroughs 4:45:59 PM
I love this Chris Forsyth record!
Dana K (host) 4:46:39 PM
meant to play it on my best of 2022 show last month and didn't have enough time!
yoni from kdu 4:46:54 PM
No, his birthday was yesterday. Just saw his tweet about it earlier.
Ambrose Hughes 4:56:06 PM
Good show, thanks Dana K!
richard lyons :) 4:57:25 PM
