Howdy Jen!

hello there! I feel alright!

I feel alright too

Captain Sensible!

then this is going to be a fun show!

like i had any doubt

how was New Year's?

HawtDamn! It’s THE DAMNED❣️

So far since the new year i've been doing ok. It only took me till today to catch up on the work back log since the holidays.

Did you have big fun for New Year celebrations, DJ JenRedlights??

@colin same on catching up! thankfully others were starting slow as well...and now looking forward to 3-day weekend

Job well done, Colin! 🏆

@mr m - yes! went to bed early so i could hop on a flight to a beach! hence my absence. :D

Aces! 🏖️

lets go beach!!

Did you enjoy Ibiza?!?

Puerta Vallarta, but yes 🌊 🌴

NICE!!

tacos!

Endless tacos! 🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮🌮

Dacos

had a whole plan in place for dinner tonight but now - 🌮 on the brain

Tacos for lunch today... mmmmmemories. Ready for round 2

every night is a great taco night!

that tom yum soup that was the original plan may have to become tom-tomorrow.

potato tacos are life

Brian did you start off w/ a basket of ships

tom-tomorrow hahah

Oh thank goodness.

Ooo Tom Yum soup! That is on our list for stuff we haven't made in a while

Wish I had a recording of the Cub session I engineered in college. I remember it being really fun.

oh wow , i bet it was! i'd love to hear that. they were great.

hi, Jon

Come on, it's a beautiful night for a walk on the beach, wouldn't you say? Yes. I would say that. I would say that. Let me start off with a basket of cheeps....

Then move on to the pollo asado taco

good on th' bun

Could you put some hot sauce on that for me? No, inside the taco, not on the side.

Haaaaaaaaa!!

Tastes good tastes good tastes good tastes good

Poor Jen has Ween brownies in her chat

fr1dayafternoon yessssss

we're like a plague

Well timed Eddie Current today. This album is underrated, at least amongst their catalog. Wish they toured for it though

Jen's mom boo hoo

Jen I'm taking yer mom to Otoboke Beaver.

my mom "why are they always yelling and when they sing it's out of tune?"

I had a CoC Animosity shirt and the neighbor: "that's ugly"

Colin yer mom needs some Porkroll Egg & Cheese and Gener's lovely voice

hahaha my mom always asked, Why are they screaming like that? too. Fondly, of course.

And some gravy fries

she was more of a Celine Dion kind of gal but very proud of my proclivities nonetheless.

Jen I just got yer mom two shirts: Stuck Pigs, and Xylitol (female hc band)

perfect gifts for the lady in your life!

Where's that WPRB promo about "a bunch of people standing around screaming?"

oh hahahaha that's what i need!

Looking at a Negative Scanner t for her too

I saw Gustaf at the Whitechapel Projects in Long Branch. A shame they don't have shows anymore.

"All my favorite singers couldnt sing" - David Berman

oof sorry about that :/ but great you remember it with Gustaf!

Doesn't the screaming ID feature the one and only Freeform Pathogen himself?

Also, hi everyone!

DETROIT COBRAS😍

hi, Dan! I need to find that ID!

I agree Ambrose. Remember that shitkickin 90s band MULE?! Michigan punk.

I have it - I'll send it to you!

Dan, I am kind of hearing the Pathogen's voice in my head along with that id...

@Dan ❤️

Jen see how many I know besides Phleg Camp (drops mic)

*bands

@Matt Hi! Not ringing any bells.

I miss Gas Huffer

hahahaha @matt

Oh yeah that's ML on that id. Gotta be

"As my mom says, it's just a bunch of people standing around screaming?" That ID is totally ML.

all of these tracks are SO CHOICE! Thanks, DJ JenRedlights!

Back in my day punk wasnt used to accompany exercise videos grumble grumble 👴

@Jen: Sent!

thank you!!

And once in a while i hear the track that's playing on that ID. Heard it a few times on wprb in last 4 years

jon, still on eof my favorite station ids

Hi, DJ DanRuccia! Get back on the radio real soon!

I saw the Blink 182 foolio drumming while a woman did powerboxing and my soul kinda died

(Making that into a bumper sticker)

@Matt the other day a few of us DJs were laughing about an underwear ad that featured a song from The Fall

Nice covers here! JKidd & Pirates Shakin All Over and now The Who "I'm a Boy "

Dan NOOOOOOOOO lol. I saw The Fall at a Reno NV rib fest. THAT is punk roke.

I happen to have that ad handy...

(Or that maybe someone had overdubbed with a Fall song. I realize I'm not actually sure)

https://youtu.be/kjpprJ8aYfI?si=dPLcyaXTJvqg8Kft

Another favorite ID I haven't heard in a while: A group of kids recite the station ID in unison, a woman asks "What's your favorite radio station?" and one of the kids says "NPR!"

Lol Bud

And there it is!

@bud CLASSIC

lulz

thanks to Dan!!

Hahahahaha

Bud, I think (but can't confirm from home) that the ID you're taking about was from when my wife used to take one of her classes to WPRB each year and they would record a station ID or two...

🫡

Militia Group Records! 2008!

It is no "Free Mandela!"

Jon, that makes it even better!

The Moody Blues Threshold of a Dream intro swell, "I know I am... etc" then maybe that's the one where they cut to "now that we've got your attention... shhh... listen"

Good one Brian

And Mickey Sprawl's "light the incense and give yourself a hard time etc"

I may be with Ted. I may be with Ted...

That Cyanide font is dope

Gonna publish a book all in the Cyanide font

maybe a pamphlet

Hard agree, Matt

Looks like the Peavey logo went to Danceteria.

Lolz Jon

Cyanide Font is opening up for Peavey Logo. Doors at 7

hahahahah

w/ support from Sunn O)))) logo

Kinda strangely disappointed this one isn't a Sly Stone song

My friend had a Peavey Bandit amp. Other friend had a Peavey Backstage. I had a Peavey Studio Pro 40. Ahhh the first amps... now the eBay, fbook mkt, craigs hunters want the Bandits. I think there's some Josh H desert rock secret sound sauce connection to that amp allegedly

Queens of the Peavey Age

This is mad stuff!😲

last time I saw jon spencer he was rocking a bandit. It may have been a vocal amp tho

wild, man, wild

@Ambrose RIGHT???? it's nuts

(disappointment has dissipated)

hahah

i'm stoked on this new album. such a movie soundtrack.

Throb Lobster

Cheap guitar related cover art... Black Sabbath "Shattering Sounds" sheet music book. Broken Glass! Heavy!

https://www.ebay.com/itm/184646811289

Looks like maybe Never Say Die! era, Brian

Jen we demand the Anthrax cover

⌚⏲⌚

Classic!

still love the old JJ - one of the first punk artists I listened to, when it came out in 79/80

Old band had one of those tiny Peavey 12" to 14" square amps as an auxiliary guest amp / harmonica amp etc. It had 4 1inch folded up pieces of white paper towels crammed into all corners of the speaker edges to keep it from rattling.

Why did this make me think of Graham Parker?

That song is amazing

classic punk beats

Easily the best Joe Jackson -> Solar Haze segue I've heard all day.

The Shattering Sounds Sabbath sheet music book was only 1st 4 lps. Self titled to Vol 4. It had some funny lyrical substitutions. "Smoking and tramping... " and "see the pipe at the end of a rope" heh. Keep it censored for the kids

sometimes i question my life choices, @jon. Not this time.

Brian I bought the Sold Our Souls compilation sheet music to learn National Acrobat

Sudden urge to buy an old camero. T tops.

DubNP yessssssssssss bitchin Camaro

Gotta listen to that now!

I got in a fight w/ a Dead Milkman about bad brains LOL #punksquabbles

Black pocket t shirt. But don't use the pocket. Roll up the pack of Marlboros in yer sleeve. Rev Camaro engine while cruising past the school

DubNP there is also the Trans Am/Fucking Champs collab, The Fucking Am

Brian D you might summon Guy Heller w/ that talk

There's also a seminal NJ hardcore/punk band Adrenalin OD, and their song Rock and roll Gas station

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x_kR54Y1i5w

💕Barbara Manning🖤

Barbara Manning opened for Codeine in Philly a few weeks ago and they teamed up for a terrific version of "Scissors" at the closer of her set.

wow!

Francis I did not know Adrenaline OD was NJ ✊

Basic Kindness are terrific. Have re-distributed a few of their bags I've picked up at area shows.

SPRIIIIIIIIIIIIINTS!!!!!!!

I know I'm not supposed to comment on PSAs, but i love that basic kindness org already! terrific!!

Nice Jon! Good lookin out, babe

This record kind of rules.

I believe a sibling of a Dead Milkmen member is the main Basic Kindness person.

Jen I discovered Nazca Plates 👍

This Sprints release is great! Also was a Bandcamp version up for a while with acoustic versions of a few songs.

@matt oh? tell me more

@richard i skipped that, having already mistakenly bought 2 copies of the album. but now regret my choice!

Cool punk adjacent band. They put two songs in one, with a slash @jen

i'll look into this! cool!

Jen, if you're looking to sell a spare SPRINTS record...I know a guy!

You will dig Nazca Plates, mefinx, Jen

@matt awesome! @jon damn, i already bequeathed it to a friend! we are trading for a couple of beers + the last Superchunk record, which she accidentally bought twice . #oldpeoplebuyingrecords

& Jen I thought of you: https://flowerpotrecords.bandcamp.com/track/racing-to-a-red-light

No problem at all. Glad it found a good home!

hahahaha love it, @matt!

Happy New Year Jen!

Jen w/ the punkanomics! I'll see yer Sprints album and raise you a rare Schlong album, plus two brews

hahahaah aren't all Schlong records rare?

happy new year, @rob!

I'll trade DK Bedtime for Democracy for 4 tacos

I'll trade an original pressing Fountain of Youth Government Issue record for ... nothing, sorry. I'm keeping it!

Rob MD lolz! Gotta set boundaries

😇

Jen I gave my old Oakland buddy a bad brains shirt, he had his dog wear it, now he is wearing it LOL. The journey it's on.

woah and whoa!! THE GITS 💝

Hyper dog in a bad brains Banned in DC shirt? Classic.

his dog was wearing his bad brains shirt??

what the hell kind of dog does he have? :}

Lol yeah, Oakland was my wild time

That dog loved the grassy park by Eli's Mile High punk dive shithole. Punk dog.

Rites of Spring!!!!!

I saw last Sublime show before he OD'd and his dalmations were in audience, runnin all over Petaluma, Ca Lol

NIce - saw them in DC at old 930 club

oooh i never did see them!!

sublime dalmations isn't the worst song title

I saw them once, possibly twice. Maybe at a hall, maybe at 930

*Rites of Spring that is, not Sublime

If you wake up with a piece of past caught in your throat, consult your doctor immediately!

Brad of Sublime's dogs were dicks LOL

Dischord ❤️

Every morning Jon. I thought it was congestion from bongrips!

Cherry Cheeks!! 👍

Devo

Guud Stuffs

Jen's shows are always solid 💪

doing my best! thanks for the kind words!

This Grand Island record is so much better than I remember

It has that sound

DJ JenRedlights🥇🏆 Running Redlights 🥇🏆

Sounds like the first Far lp. Tin Cans with Strings to You

Mike nice!! I saw Far open for 7 Seconds.

Mike that's a good one.

@mike oh nice, good tip!

You-rine Shivers!!

i wish they didn't have such a stupid name, as this record is pretty fantastic. Sounds much like Civic here?!

Imagine someone asking you what your band is called is when you're in a band with this name.

There's a group with a record out on Skin Graft today with an even worse name!!

TELL US!

seriously, like going out with the kids at work and admitting you're in a band...

All started w/ them miscreants Butthole Surfers

I must stress that I AM BUT THE MESSENGER HERE.

oh dear, i just found it

https://cuntroaches.bandcamp.com/album/self-titled

Jon you're teasin us here, champ

oh and here i thought it was Squid Pisser

see you next Tuesday roaches !?!

@ Matt..I remember the city gardens in Trenton wouldn’t even print the buttholes name on their concert cards you got in the mail

Future split single, perhaps.

You coulda classed it up. I mean…

Haaaaaaa Carlos. Wild, man

i just feel sad that if someone liked that record, i can't even tell them how to find it. alas.

Lifeguard!!

Jen, true punks find the goods, no worries

I remember a friend in NJ in mid 1980s asking a record store if they carried The Crucifucks 😂🤣

And the answer was NO

Ah, punk band names.

LOL - I remember them

@matt. On alternative tentacles

AT 🦇 ✊

Oh wow, forgot about the whole experience of having to blindly order records from various labels, like SST, because no one had them, and you hoped it was good

Good point Francis

THIS

hahah but the artwork in the paper catalog inserts made them LOOK GREAT

Francis then a blind-buy would be an awesome record

@francis..that is why you always went for the sampler from the label first

DJ JenRedlights! Another OUTSTANDING Show! Big cheers to you! Stay Awesome!

thank you, Mr M! Glad you were all here to hang out today! Until next week...

Top show, thanks Jen#

Whiskey time Jen

OMG the Crucifucks - I hope I can stop laughing before my set starts...😂

@Carlos - yeah those compilation records were always a god send.

I remember Philly police dept tried to sue AT for using a pic of a Philly cop car for a album cover

Great show, Jen!

you have a great weekend as well!

Thx Jen!!!

Carlos, Jello B was so harassed by cops

@readie, high five!!

High priest of harmful matter

@ambrose, I'm going as Jen HashTag from now on. @matt oh yes! @rob thank you!

Readie lol ✊

Thanks Jen. Always a pleasure.

all mine! see you next time.

Jen 🤚!

@Jen haha! Was meant to !

Thanks Jen!
