ello!

welcome, crumb

Hi Dana! Crum Bum #2

And here we are again! Throw down!

let's gooo

oops dead air on FM

It's a thing tonight sorta?

chchchchchchCHANDRA

Blame it on the comet...

Comet for sure!

I like the girls!

Slits?

Yeooo DBTFrumpers

I love The slits! They dance with the girls!

hi jimbo, roffle!

"cause the boys don't dance".

Hey Dana!

I am secure in my thoughts that Dana is up to MISCHIEF again.. Cool..

Dana K getting all up in it tonight

Oh this banger

I saw A Certain Ratio open for New Order at the Felt Forum. Great show

Punk Rockers with Boom Boxes

So jealous!

Back in the day the break dancers in the park would do their thing to "Magnificent Seven" and "Confusion" legitimate crossover funk classics. Too commercial for this show but what about Liquid Liquid?

Marcus, you'll want to stick around!

QQ💥💥💥

@ Dana K (host) Quando Quango's "Love Tempo" was a killer track, thanks!

I think so too, Richard!

Yesssssssssssssssesdssdsse

Fonky saxxx

I so would have guessed Oingo Boingo. Just me.

I can hear it, too British though

Though there's some Oingo Boingo sounds that straight up sound like XTC

@ Roffle: BTW, for the record, IMHO the comet has fizzled out! so much for the "Goat" comet LOL

don't back the front's alright if you like saxophones

@Alan, there was a comet? For real?

I like saxophones

I love where your ear can go. You have a hard sell on that though. XTC! I will love you to amaze me though. Thanks for that for sure!

Hi Rob! Yeah, every year there are a few

Hi Dana K! We're loving this early 80s vibe

The man from Mars starts eating cars

thanks, Rob!

He's eatin' bars, yeah wall to wall. Door to door, hall to hall. He's gonna eat 'em all.

Love'em all

It's OK. I've understood

Evening Dana

It's only Wordy Rappinghood

We are all understood in my humble opinion. We get on with that.

It's all rappinghood in a way.

Hi Ossy!

That wind outside is Brutal !!

It IS keeping me dancing tha k you very much

boys keep swinging!

It barge ghost 👻

nosferatu is on the boat

🧛🏽 🐺 🦇

no shoes no saxophone no service

Alan Just said it's time to go outside and pay attention to stuff. LOL! God love that!i

Wind is high. No see thru ceiling to the sky here tonight though.

I'm suddenly craving a hoagie

the official theme song of Wawa convenience stores

What kind?

Play that funky hoagie

if the Wawa isn't overwhelmed by students I may get a hoagie

Their song "Cavern" was stolen by Grandmaster Flash to make "White Lines"

White cheese combo?

Show is off the rails now 💥💥💥

Cowbellin me softly

I've had some good hoagies across from the admin gates. Princeton has fair hogies.

Hoagie Haven is nearby

HAVEN

An hour and a half until I can get my hoag

'tis!

Gimme an eggplant parm and throw some fries and a fried egg on it.

Eggplant parm! Sold!

Music luvvin' Foodies unite!

but Ya kant have any pudding until...

I know veal Parmigiana is out of favor, and maybe even illegal these days, but man. That shit was really good!

Eggplant fries with lasagna

I love eggplant so!

And hoagies with bleu cheese

Whom ever has a salad without out blue cheese should be held in question.

Like there is a point ?

I had leftover beans and a butter chicken wrap for dinner, homemade. Nicola in Lambertville makes a really good eggplant Parm sandwich

Those Ceaser salad fucks are all posers!

no dissing caesar salads in the chat

i had a caesar salad for lunch everyday this week

If they didn't taste so so good! Okay. Gotta give ya that.

But! Be advised! There are things!

also, i got in the car to drive home when the higsons song started. all i have to say is hello party people!

hi colin! welcome to the party

Hi Colin! Hi Dana K! Hi crumbs!

hi jim!

best crumb bums in all the land right here.

hi ADRIAN BELEW'S GUITAR SOLO

I met Adrian, what a nice person! Love him

Wallonio-disco or Flando-disco

is this one of those block, rockin beats?

Yes

lol, chemical brothers song that sampled this is a permanent ear worm for me.

and it just woke up!

This is from Qunicy M.E.

I think it's been a WPRB station ID almost since that episode aired

I saw that episode when it aired. Classic

some of those station ids are my favorite songs. if people on knew what happens in my head when they say congratulations.

I simply did not watch that much TV, but I wonder how many of his patients are actually dead now. just wondering'...

Time is a bitch!

this show has us all like😎

sunglasses emoji is my favorite

Been tuned in from the start but only now able to chat. The show absolutely rules tonight

indeed this has been an extra good one!

thanks fellas!

😊

This is so very good, thanks Dana. Gonnna drag this off to the bedroom with the lovely Bluetooth apparatus. Thanx!

night night, Roffle!

⚡ 🪑🪑💥

Electric Chairs = 👌

this INCREDIBLE

It's wild that it's the same band as Jayne Country and the Electric Chairs (without Jayne County)

...on a roll...(but hoagie later)

Feels like Laborwave 2021

my goto wawa recently has been simple-ish. little bit of mayo, smoked turkey, swiss, tomatos, onion, and hot/sweet peppers or pickles mood of the day. pepper oregano.

lol simple-ish

Hi Energy party Time..

And Sister Rosetta Tharpe, who isn't from Philly but is buried there

Schooly-D from Parkside

Philly's first rap star

that's pretty cool. I never thought about the talent resting so close around me.
