Running Redlights Fri Jan 26 with Jen on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

Oh gosh, looks like I can afford more volume.

turn it UPWARD

or are you saying sound isn't working?

On my part for sure.

Numbers on a knob makes no sence to my ears.

awright!

i only know that it goes to 11

nice! i was listening to why bother earlier today!

Goes exponential in the brain. Beautiful thing.

The singers voice and melodies take me away.

This record didn't hook me the first time, but i think i'm sold now!

I've omcome across some recommendations for Why Borther? and that ruled. Will check out more

That is a good point. I have things that I have sorta written off only to hear again and wonder how I missed it.

Anorexia!

'tis!!

it's always nice to revisit old things. Sometimes it takes me a while.

Hey hey!

Really appreciate the weird synth noise over top of this Alex Chilton song

Autolux! Greg from Failure

The Chrome Cranks were one of Bob Bert's bands. I saw them at the Court Tavern.

they were indeed and i did NOT get to see them (that i recall), which makes me very sad.

greg from failure is in autolux?? ok that's news, right on.

hi, @jon!

The Next w/ the rubber stamp!

DIY magic!

CASSIE.

so good!

Seconding Matt

bless the record archivists

is this a reissue or did it really come out in 2020?

reissue!

actually i take that back. It was recorded ~1979. but i think never released.

i figured as much. I'm sure I've listen to cassie before, but this track is hitting the spot!

if i remember my facts...i'd better loook it up. darn senility.

Jen any chance of gettin some godheadSilo? Them yelly boys you like.

I like this idea but do not seem to have any at hand! might be a bit of a delay, i'm afraid. :/

No prob

i do love requests!

J Masochist!

hahah

My cousin just moved from Amherst to North Carolina, used to live on same street as ol' J.

imagines living on the same street a J being like, Is that a freight train or war?!?!? no just dino J band practice.

Lol! J hides in a vortex of stacked amps.

with lots of kids loitering around outside

Hi Jen, great show as usual you probably don’t take requests but maybe for a future show the teengenerate album get action is 30 years old this year

one of my favorite records francis!

Jen's early fanzines! We must behold

30-year-old teengenerate album where does the time go?

holy crap really????

Old guy in Greasy Strangler pulls down pants: "check these cheeks!"

lol

@francis, thank you for the heads-up and kind words! I am always happy to receive requests, even if i can't fulfill them...going to poke around

Feels like only yesterday CoC 6 Songs w/ Mike Singing came out 👴☣️💀 👴👴👴

😉👍🏻

RATICAL DUDE 🏄

🐀🐁🐭

hey jen!

howdy, @andrew!

Hi Jen! Happy Friday.

hello, @timothy! cheers to that!

I, for one, am entirely done with this week.

agreed jen! long but productive week. That cold one I'm gonna enjoy is gonna be very enjoyable in just a few short hours or three.

oh and also, I only caught a little bit of the late night edition of running redlights this week. ( iwas in bed falling asleep) It was great. definity gonna check it out in full on MC

I hear you on the cold one! And awesome you caught some of the show the other night! i will make sure the archives are caught up soon.

roundabout RRl archives link, if anyone wants it: http://www.runningredlights.org/

no rush. visiting the archives means i have to turn off wprb and it's been so dang good this season.

Good afternoon. It's warm and was sunny. Warmest temperatures in 2.5 months! 76 degrees!

@Colin, I have that very issue.

guys, that is the best compliment! don't turn that dial!

I once won railroad jerk tickets on WPRB

Teengenerate Woo hoo

I apparently booked this show in 1995 - New Bomb Turks / Teengenerate / Speaking Canaries

@francis NICE! @jon, OF COURSE YOU DID

i am pretty sure that in 1994 i listened to Teengenerate, NBT, Nuisance, and nothing else.

A fan of the other two bands in the front row waiting for Speaking Canaries to finish started unplugging cables from Damon Che's pedal board mid-set and that went about as well as you can imagine.

ohhhhh geez

I only realized what was happening from the back of the room because (I believe) Damon Che was suddenly beating someone in the audience with his guitar.

Nothing like a 60 cycle hum that goes pop at the end of a jack cable for sure.!

i will say that is maybe now the most punk show ever

Teengenerate ruled, that's the only other thing I remember.

jon, do you remember what venue hosted the show?

Empty Bottle in Chicago.

There was a listserv called The Chicago Show list that is still online which makes looking up information like this a delight!

http://petdance.com/csl/?950921

nice. I've actually never been to chicago

I suspect you would enjoy it there.

proper deep dish pizza

Chicago killed my battery at 30 degrees below zero. Wait until spring to visit Colin. lol

Weddos!

Chicago to me is 100% about great food and great music! except for that one time I was there for work. Even then, I saw a comedy show! Fun town!

David Gedge at his weirdest

Red Pants playing with White Denim and Pissed Jeans

Hi Jen! My Chi-town trip was also for work- we saw the Cubbies in April (freezing) and - it was so long ago that it was a "Thing" to have a piña colada at Trader Vic's. And our hair was PERFECT.

🤘🏽

DOGFACED HERMANS

@readie hahahahahahah!

@matt YESSS

@guelo INDEED!

I hope for a 21-645 discography release one day. This song and their Propeller contribution are so good. Know there is more out there!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSOd9yR_swA

i am VERY curious about this! don't think i have the Propeller song, thank you!

The Propeller 7" is four great songs from four different bands. They do "Babble," an all-timer.

thank you for the tip!!

Later covered by Moving Targets.

The War Lords!! A very rare and expensive 7”

Warlords chooglin'

Neil!

neil magnet school

Surprisingly they were not much heavier than the tone that Neil got on his guitar. Great cover. Always sounded like Neil destroyed his amp on that one

Ah the boiling frog

TRVSS are called something else now.

Ah! MIRAKIKER.

https://mirakler.bandcamp.com

oh damn!

wait, that trvss song is a cover? of bjork....??? huh

i sure do love the internet sometimes

😘

fantastic show!!
