Jumping in the car, can't wait to hear tonight's show. Go get 'em, Dan!

Hey Jon! Happy driving!

And hello everyone! I am...not Jon

Hello Not-Jon and Jon. Je suis loving the show so far!

Hi Rob!

Sounds like the voice of Ambrose Kenny Smith

Nice mix tonight

Hey DSM!

Oh, that is very nice you are doing this Dan!

Couldn't not!

I'm not sure if I ever got to see him live in person, which feels like a goddamn shame

Gotta leave some room on playlist in case f a late death before show

Dan, thank you for this tribute to Dex Romweber. I pretty much never knew anything about Flat Duo Jets other than the name, so now (sadly) I am learning about them and him

I feel like I randomly found one of their albums at WPRB along the way, but he didn't really register for me until I moved down here

Glad to be able to share!

Evenin' Dan! Thanks for that tribute to the late great Dexter Romweber, was very lucky to have seen him on a couple occasions, one with his sister on drums who predeceased him just a few years ago and then solo acoustic at the Rathskeller in Frenchtown, NJ in about 2018, very sad to hear of his passing.

Thanks, Bo! I forgot to mention that his last album (Good Thing Goin') is dedicated to his sister. I heard they were incredible live as a duo

@Dan, oh, Okay, gotcha! She was unreal behind the drum kit, wasn't afraid to hit them either!

very excited for this album

Both singles are sick!

They are! It's shocking she is 70. The music is so fresh and forward looking

good videos too for the singles

Oh, I'll have to check those out

This is siiiick

🔥

The Bug don't miss!

I was listening to Wolf Eyes before turning on the radio so this is a perfect transition

lol. Amazing

Ohai Dan

Hey TAndy!

nice Pup! I have had Wolf Eye's Undertow album playing frequently these days

It's Non-Solomon 🐙🐙🐙💥💥💥🦑🦑🦑

jimbooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Just in time...I heard if the chat is inactive for one hour, it implodes.

It's always such a mess when that happens. Cleanup always takes forever. Good thing we staved it off for now!

Raincoats!!!

A fun Raincoats discussion: https://defector.com/defector-music-club-knows-who-the-raincoats-are

Thanks, Dan! I was fortunate that I saw them in DC in 1982, an amazing show!

Oh shit! That's incredible!

And the amusing thing is, when I bought the ticket a few weeks in advance, I was handed the ticket to a different gig. Fortunately I looked at the ticked before I walked away (out of the office of the 930 Club)

*ticket

Yikes!

The actual show was a couple of nights before the show that was recorded on the ROIR live cassette/cd. So it really was magical

*The Kitchen Tapes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kitchen_Tapes_(The_Raincoats_album)

and that is a fun discussion, thanks!

Thanks Dan! great show, great show

Yes, thanks Dan, for this great show!

Wow EdAn and Mr. Lif!!!

have a great night dan!

Thanks for the show Dan!

Thanks for listening, y'all! Thanks to Jon for letting me fill in today! I'll be back on the airwaves again at some point!
