hi friends!
Colin 3:03:46 PM

Jen Redlights (host) 3:03:58 PM
last-minute earthquake hour
Jen Redlights (host) 3:04:19 PM
hoping no more encores of earth show! hope you'er all doing well
Colin 3:04:39 PM
earthquakes, epic biblical fly in my office and an eclipse = final weekend
Dan Ruccia 3:06:01 PM
I forget how much this Ex Eye album rips
Dan Ruccia 3:06:45 PM
I saw someone online saying that in the past, the convergence of an earthquake and an eclipse would have led to the demise of an empire or two
Bud Burroughs 3:08:02 PM
Or maybe the creation of a new religion.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:08:09 PM
oh TOTALLY! we'd be rioting in the streets by now
Richard Lyons 3:08:12 PM
rippin' Friday!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:08:20 PM
shakin' Friday!
Roffle 3:08:30 PM
@Dan, Not in NJ. There will be earthquake parties tonight for sure.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:08:45 PM
looting in loin cloths
Jen Redlights (host) 3:08:55 PM
(my first hit single)
fr1dayafternoon 3:08:56 PM
Reporting in from South Philly... we were a pretty freaked out.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:09:08 PM
I would say so! that was a huge shake!!
Richard Lyons 3:09:13 PM
also Friday Bandcamp! the whole Clean discography name your price:)
Colin 3:10:01 PM
mmmmm, loin cloth earthquake parties.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:10:24 PM
oooh @richard, a great find and reason to go wild too!
Brian D 3:11:30 PM
When looking it up earlier I found out that there was a 2.2 M quake in nearby Hunterdon County, NJ just last month. Mar 14 near Whitehouse Station. So maybe that was related not sure
Roffle 3:13:05 PM
I knew what it was because I have been in a lot of them in on the Aleutian Islands, but I dismissed it with a, Nah, can't be, and figured it for yet another weirdo neighbor event.
Brian D 3:13:15 PM
Sounds like related as it was also near Tewksbury NJ. Ramapo fault
Jen Redlights (host) 3:13:34 PM
I normally wonder if it's a truck passing, unless it's a jolt-y one
Brian D 3:14:06 PM
Exactly what many though today
Jen Redlights (host) 3:14:39 PM
what's bananas is that the NJ quake wasn't even as big as some of the Taiwan aftershocks :/
Colin 3:14:42 PM
There is a freight line across the street from work, i thought it was a train.
Kelly Nielsen 3:15:51 PM
Big This Heat feel
David Shortell 3:16:01 PM
Johnny Kidd and the Pirates' shake songs may be too obvious.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:16:40 PM
oh @david, that would have been a great one for me to have on hand!!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:16:48 PM
this set is all about obvious ;)
Brian D 3:16:48 PM
Jerry Gordon beat us to it with that Johnny Kidd 3 hours ago
Jen Redlights (host) 3:17:01 PM
yeeeeeeah, Jerry!!
Roffle 3:19:20 PM
Jerry is so casually brilliant. What a treasure!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:20:48 PM
darn right, he is! one of a kind!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:22:00 PM
kind of appropriate that this is skipping 😆
David Shortell 3:22:43 PM
The Swingin' Neckbreakers do a great version of Bobby Fuller's "Shakedown" on their "Shake Break!" album. They covered Tony Sheridan's "Shake It Some More" on their first album.
Carlos Ramone. 3:23:55 PM
If you can put together 2 hours of shaking music it makes me think you may have had prior knowledge of the event happening
Jen Redlights (host) 3:24:00 PM
oooh let me snoop in my bin some more! hot tip!
Colin 3:24:01 PM
I was hoping to hear some TH 😍
Christine 3:27:26 PM
A little late, but LOL to "looting in loin cloths" @Jen!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:27:49 PM
:D
David Shortell 3:27:59 PM
This band stinks (just kidding!).
Colin 3:28:07 PM
lol, lupica popped in the chat and requested this song about 3 seconds post quake.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:28:25 PM
hahahah
Jen Redlights (host) 3:28:39 PM
we are on the same wavelength ;)
Christine 3:29:02 PM
Psychic Twins 🔮
Roffle 3:29:33 PM
Looting Gucci loin clothes in loin clothes is poetic justice.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:32:04 PM
the imagery on that...
fr1dayafternoon 3:32:33 PM
Hope everyone's loin cloth is the right wave... length
Jen Redlights (host) 3:33:52 PM
new swag idea!?
Roffle 3:35:33 PM
Wavy loin clothes in an earthquake even. The world is in balance.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:43:12 PM
guys, I really thought this would be a two-set kind of theme. Impromptu theme show!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:43:33 PM
speaking of, who is jazzed for the annual fund drive aka excuse to do even CRAZIER RADIO?
Francis 3:44:25 PM
I'm jazzed about doing jazzercise!!!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:45:11 PM
YES, Francis!!!
Colin 3:45:46 PM
this pozi song has me pretty jazzed!
fr1dayafternoon 3:47:44 PM
How about one from GBV's Earthquake Glue?
Francis 3:48:51 PM
My grandma and my patients like to do jazzercise. I'm just wondering what they do during it? Play some Kenny G, and move around a little?
David Shortell 3:49:50 PM
Not the Npmads of "The Crusher" fame.
Christine 3:50:01 PM
"Don't Don't Get Freaked Out" is a perfect choice for
Jen Redlights (host) 3:50:15 PM
this is the Nomads from Sweden!
Christine 3:50:24 PM
..For this post-quake afternoon.
Francis 3:50:53 PM
These guys remind me a bit of the Flamming Groovies. I'd love a show of garagepunk from the 80's
Richard Lyons 3:52:51 PM
🎸🔊
Jen Redlights (host) 3:52:53 PM
Francis, all over it! Stay tuned for my special drive show featuring all garage and friends featuring organs
Francis 3:54:25 PM
nice!! Mummies:? Fuzztones?
Jen Redlights (host) 3:54:27 PM
somehow that was in English
Space Cowboy 3:54:28 PM
This is what a rock and roll isLl about
Space Cowboy 3:54:42 PM
!!!!!!
Space Cowboy 3:55:04 PM
Great rock n roll today
Jen Redlights (host) 3:55:19 PM
it'll be a surprise, @francis! thanks, @space cowboy! i'm having a blast
Space Cowboy 3:56:45 PM
I ain't scared of no earthquake when thejams are playing 😜
Christine 3:57:45 PM
This WHOLE SET 🫨 🔊 📈 💯
Jen Redlights (host) 3:58:18 PM
thanks, you guys!!
Mike Lupica 3:58:27 PM
Jen, not to be morbid, but I think you should arrange for the words "No, the SWEDISH Nomads" to appear on your headstone.
Brian D 3:58:34 PM
Great time Jen!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:58:49 PM
hahahahha @mike
Jen Redlights (host) 3:59:19 PM
it'll be a debate with "no, the MC5 are the best rock 'n' roll band"
Brian D 4:00:04 PM
Ubu!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:00:37 PM
making myself laugh now, it's true
Francis 4:01:06 PM
I think you mispoke, and meant to say the Stooges
David Shortell 4:01:41 PM
@Francis: The Mummies are more of a 90's garage band. I saw their east coast debut three days after Xmas '91 at a rented space on Twenty-somethingth Street.
Jen Redlights (host) 4:02:00 PM
did someone say Stooges?
Jen Redlights (host) 4:03:16 PM
my all-organs show won't be limited to 80s, and i'm really looking forward to it!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:03:30 PM
April 19th, mark your calendar. With SPECIAL GUEST COHOST!
Francis 4:03:47 PM
@David Shortell Yeah - I saw them around that time too at the old 930 club in DC. Mummies formed in 88, so they may qualify
Christine 4:06:48 PM
Oh perfect.
Ossy 4:07:42 PM
Rocking hot sounds
Ossy 4:08:17 PM
like today's scary shaking experience
David Shortell 4:08:22 PM
I don't know if Jim Jarmusch's Stooges documentary mentioned this, but Ron Asheton was a caregiver to Larry Fine at a retirement home.
Carlos Ramone. 4:11:31 PM
Love the picture of the mouse wearing shades and a leather jacket in RR high school
Roffle 4:11:55 PM
Probably just me but, I'm down for some after shocks.
Roffle 4:12:58 PM
If we keep it on the radio, I'm cool with that too...
Francis 4:13:46 PM
Jen - this set is AWESOME!! Makes me wanna smash stuff up
Jen Redlights (host) 4:14:00 PM
safety third, @francis!
Roffle 4:15:02 PM
Mosh pit china shopping.
Jen Redlights (host) 4:18:33 PM
ha!
Rob from Maryland 🦅 4:18:52 PM
Nazca Plate "is an oceanic tectonic plate in the eastern Pacific Ocean basin off the west coast of South America." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazca_Plate. It surely produces a frenzy of earthquakes
Rob from Maryland 🦅 4:19:02 PM
And hi everyone
Francis 4:20:03 PM
not sure where you'd fit einstürzende neubauten in this set
Jen Redlights (host) 4:20:30 PM
HAHAHHA
Jen Redlights (host) 4:20:36 PM
hi, @rob!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:23:12 PM
team, I think we may pull off a full 2 hours of earthquake music
Roffle 4:23:14 PM
Hey Rob, that would be the most dubious South American import yet that doesn't involve cocaine.
Roffle 4:23:58 PM
Shake them Red Lights Jen!
Dan Ruccia 4:26:19 PM
Dancing Cigarettes!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:27:47 PM
i had forgotten about that one! so good!
Roffle 4:30:22 PM
This is so fun for me for sure. This event needed to be expressed in long form by all means. Glad you found two hours, but my money is this could on for hours..
David Shortell 4:30:29 PM
I have a t-shirt depicting what is possibly a dancing cigarette. https://comics.ha.com/itm/original-comic-art/illustrations/garry-trudeau-mr-butts-from-doonesbury-illustration-original-art-c-1990s-/a/121922-11156.s
Jen Redlights (host) 4:33:12 PM
I think it could, @roffle!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:33:32 PM
@david, that's a great one!
Dan Ruccia 4:34:29 PM
Is Cassie skipping for anyone else?
Jen Redlights (host) 4:34:40 PM

Åské 4:35:59 PM

Roffle 4:36:28 PM
@David, If Trudeau wants to send me a sketch that's cool, but I ain't payin' that money. I can cut out Doonesbury cartoons from his books. lol
Richard Lyons 4:36:37 PM

I'm shaken by how much I've enjoyed the show (the second hour at any rate). It's been a blast!
Jen Redlights (host) 4:54:01 PM

Carlos Ramone. 4:59:00 PM
