I've already run, so I'm ready to run red lights.

outstanding! welcome!

HAPPY MEMBERSHIP DRIVE EVE, ONE AND ALL.

I has worry last week 😩

The best time of year, or the greatest time?

Hi, DJ JenRedlights!!

hi, Mr. M! Aw, thanks! I was SO SICK. Lovely Nikhil took care of business!

Pre Drive Time Pre Drive Day

What?! Oh no. Stay healthy, DJ JenRedlights! Sending healing vibes to you!

Yes, DJ Nikhil had a nice show! Cheers!

thank you! I am back to what passes as normal today! Super happy to be back.

how's everyone? Are you all getting jazzed about the WPRB membership drive???

hi jen and friday crew!

hallooooooo!

definitely jazzed!

outstanding! glad you're here!

i love this album! i have it on cassette somewhere

I'm already looking around for places to put that new wprb pledge drive sticker.

That 3 record is great! Pretty underrated, in fact.

NICE, Colin. Mine will go on the electrical box in front of my house. ;)

i don't want a lot of stickers on my car but I may have to make an exception

Colin, time for a new bong! I mean sticker BOOK! 🙃

inspiring sticker location! I pass a random electrical box in the woods on my hikes.

lol, mrm, another inspirational thought

@andrew just the most important ones

I enjoy labeling my garbage cans as well.

(WHY?)

Colin, what if I told you there was no sticker for this year's Membership Drive?!

You can get a sneak peak at the Spring 2023 Drive Swag here...

Tattoos!

lol, I didn't read the small print, those are all tattoos!

BEACH TOWEL, PEOPLE

No more space for tattoos 😎

my nieces are coming for a visit from the west side later this year. looks like they are gonna be all tatted up with wprb logos.

L0LZ

that beach towel is very tempting

best towel on the beach, in the tub, or at the pool.

temporary tattoos are the best way to advertise on children

*shows up at the office with a beach towel cape.

I quote this song often.

Add favourites to chat

i love this song!

and this album. Whoa, wait, there's a new MDID single???

I was just about to say. Three songs from 1984. Previously released but not on vinyl as intended.

AHHHHH

thank you, sir, and Scat, too!

I was thinking same thing (JMC similarities) Vocal style, reverby guitar, all in all great sound and song

THE JESUS AND MARY CHAIN 🤎

Can’t wait to have WPRB temporarily tattooed on my neck.

Much jazz

MDiD = classic wprb memories

Just the FACS, ma'am.

ALL FACS

MDID FACS would read as code for something.

These tattoos... they're just a temporary phase... like Bobby Sox

I admire how FACS writes memorable songs despite seemingly having no traditional choruses.

Just the flax. And the hemp....

I didn’t hear what everyone else seemed to hear in the last Facs album. Maybe this one will win me over?

Clock out time imminent...

I am a fan of this FACS album! Give it a whirl!

that was real nice 👍

Thoroughly enjoying all these swell selections!

love it, MM!

Why does hot weather pair so well with lo-fi max distortion underground shit

well who are we kidding, doesn't lo-fi max distortion pair with all the good things?

Woah, world class segueueueue there!

🤘🏻

why is there no vinyl emoji??

and why did i just notice this?

I use 🧿 as the limited edition cobalt blue vinyl

🙊

hahahhahahah

well the music is spinning right out of it! 🧿🎵🎶

Phone was staticky earlier heard a band that I thought sounded good the DJ said it reminded her of her father and she was going to play it all weekend but I couldn't catch the name of the band would like to know if anybody knows the answer that would be greatly appreciated thank you

that wild boy song had me turning up the volume, probably for the third time this show also, most wprb shows, the volume keeps inching up.

hi @daniel - the band was called My Dad Is Dead!

great band, great record! so glad you liked it!

I say this every week (if only to myself), but gratitude is a good thing for both the giver and receiver. I'm really enjoying the show today. Thanks Jen!

SLEAFORD MODS 💗

Last night at the Poison Ruin show I really enjoyed overhearing a guy explain Sleaford Mods to his friend between sets.

hi @mike! that is so awesome to hear - thanks for being here!

oh hahaha how did he explain them??

All the deets, please and thank you

“One of the most English things you can think of…” was probably my favorite line.

HAHAHAH that is TRUTH.

I also love how the cover of this new record shows EXACTLY what they sound like

sneer and all

Did guy mention the ‘Don’t Go’ YAZ cover?!?

Yeah it was pretty good

Oh no more about what they sound like. I only caught some of their exchabge

Giggles

Time for some drop D riffs - I like it

MORE RIFFS

Hey everyone! Loving these songs! Loving this show!

love it, @parrscream!! thanks for being here!

Mighty riffage

the title is so descriptive

Long, full day to this point but I found out I don't have to pick up the kid from school so I am completely zoned out listening from the couch. Might move to the front porch and grab a seltzer on the way...

it's a good day for cold beverages on the porch. you may need to grab two, for good hydration practices.

Jon, I'm glad you get to chill! Here's some chill music.

Update: Hello from the porch.

I've liked both songs Mike played from this and I like this too. Need to hear the full record!

i'm still marveling that it exists, but I have been enjoying it!

I saw Chris Leo for the first time in ages at a Jersey City wine bar he was a part of and I made him guess who I was. I'm sure that was as comfortable for him as it sounds.

hahahahahah

but i guess that he participated means he has a sense of humor. which is nice.

Yes. To be clear, this is someone I know / have been around / has appeared in my parents' living room so it wasn't like I was asking a stranger to play this game. Just not in 15 years or so!

Could see the gears turning!

haha it's the COVID hair/social gaps that throws everyone off

Was out front doing yard work and listening but was finally able to make it back to my laptop... wanted to confirm that I would also follow anything by anyone from Frodus to the ends of the earth (or however far you said you would follow them Jen, ha ha)

Ahhhhh I love that! One of the best bands ever. We'll go together.

IT'S THE COPS!!!

THE FUZZ

To the ends of the earth with Jen Redlights!

Stu Cope Rim Shotz

Andy Summers 80 years strong. What a crafty guit fiddle player

When this started I thought it was something on Sahel Sounds!

@parrscream 🚀

@jon HAHAHA OUTSTANDING!

i like to remind myself periodically how friggin good this record is

:'-D

I like to remind myself periodically of the Atom & His Package song title "Sting Cannot Possibly Be the Same Guy Who Was In the Police."

'member berries when he walked dat bass lines

Thank Jen!

Bed 2 Big = pert durn good dub bass line for Sting

HAHAHAHHAHAHAH @jon

@daniel welcome!

i had to go look up that Atom and His Package album. hilarious.

Atom was right. Definitely a less talented body double on the solo records.

he got the woo-woo fever somewhere along the way

This show is hitting all the marks. If I were to ever get married, you gotta be the DJ.

Ya great big not little rock n roll show here!

@Mike that's the first time I've ever been invited to wedding deejay. I AM SO IN.

also I friggin love this band. has anyone seen them? they're based in NYC currently.

I was busy that day

Buttt I heart everything in this set! 🎶🎵❣️

I'm late to the party. Hello everyone!

especially THE POLICE ♥️

Oh hi, RobFromMaryland

hallo and hallo!

SO GOOD LET"S HEAR IT AGAIN?

Yes!

woo!

Wait. Is this the way the show ends?! I’m cry.

lots of heavy jams throughout the show, I love it. thanks and happy fun drive everybody!

DJ JenRedlights! Awesome Return-To-Good-Health Show! Big cheers and kind regards to you!

thank you guys as always for hanging out! Sending it all out WITH A BANG!

Cheers Dears!

have a swell weekend

great show!

😀
