Ohai

Hi TAndy! Jon!

hello!

Hi Richard!

Yoooo Dana K! .....................🛸

349 total pledges! One away from 350!

So many POWERFUL radio duos tonight!

It's Friday, It's Saturday, It's Friday, your alternating voices are confusing meeee!

I'm confused by it too!

F R D A Y

Hi all!

Hi Alex! Thank you for your donation!

350! Very nice work. Exceptional theme too.

Alan PaidUpNyk, So true! I have done double takes during the guest hostings, and especially after a DJ calendar switcharoo. :)

Love both your shows!

It doesn't help that Dana is playing a very commie sounding show!

And thanks Alex from media donor #350!!!

If you don't need no human rice, pledge.wprb.com

Ohio rock

@ Roffle: I know what season it is by looking at the stars and what day of the week it is by which DJ's voice I hear on PRB..LOL!

Danaaaaaa K and Commieeeee 💥💥💥

SONIC REDUCER AINT NO LOSER

I love this song so much oh my god

same...

yoooo jimbooooo! alan! ain't no losers!

Big love to whoever was in charge of the music from the Tony hawk games for including this in one of them

Underground 2 has such a banger of a soundtrack

Might be tony hawk tbh

Dead Boys!!

Those games def converted some kids to punx

Back soon. Great show!

great concept for a show!

I only played the first one but I remember the Goldfinger song very well

Dana & Commie Officially at Warp 9

I've been listening to the Electric Eels but I think they were done by 75. Stiv was apparently a fan

I've got some more Clevo bands coming up

Nice

I can't see what Dana is cueing up in this barge co-hosting layout so it's just like listening to the radio but I have to talk sometimes

That's ok. We like it when you talk

Evening Dana and Commy

hi Ossy!

I just swnag you guys som dough rey me - I forgot to mention mr.solomon - keep on keepN on - X!!!

Thank you so much, Amy!

thank YOU GUYZZZZ !!!!

Amy!! Thank you!

give. this is unique to say the least. not getting tis anywhere else. nothing even close. i gave earlier this afternoon. this punk shit is great.

back @ you COMMIE F !!! - !!!

hell yeah i love punk

Me too!!

📻 Cranked Up Really High 🔊🎶

crank that HOG

everything is from 1977 that i see. is that a requirement for this program?

It is! 1977 and we are going mad!

year zeroooo

we're encouraged to do special shows during the drive and i chose only to play music from 1977!

fucking A baby!!!

it was a great year, or not, depending on one's point of view lol

Radio Birdman!

For some reason I thought the Kids first lp came out in 77, but it was 78. Hubble Bubble came out in 77, so Belgium checked in a bit.

1977- Elvis died, first Star Wars movie, Voyager launched, but at least the Vietnam War was well into the past...

No Elvis beatles or rolling stones!

And "Radios Appear", the 1st Birdman album is a Blue Oyster Cult lyric from Dominance and Submission!

We're at 7! Three more to 10!

...and Pontiac came out with the Formula Firebird which I still have...

Nice. I had a 1970 Tempest. It was bigger than my living room.

Felt like LL Cool J's "Mama Gonna Knock You Out"

Steve: Back then you would OWN the road!

It was a tank. It was more armored than a batmobile

...and play 8 tracks tapes..

My parents had a 78 cougar when I was a kid, my mom got a speeding ticket the first week she had it cause going 85 felt like nothing compared to their vw bug

Great Cruisin' music here! Thanx!

Cougar had a reeel nice body..

Green Cougar crusin' machine: https://www.hemmings.com/stories/article/a-cougar-for-cruising-1978-mercury-cougar-xr-7

Yep ours was just like that but cream colored

Two more!

It had an 8 track. I still have the 1st Sabbath 8 track

@Steve: :O

I owned a 1979 Datsun 210 for a bit. I loved that little car.

Elvis Costello "My Aim is True" released 1977

Two cars, one for crusin' and another for runabout..

@ Colin..

lol shazum parental controlled this name.

when i laid the Datsun to rest it had over 270,000 miles on it.

a lot of those miles were runabout miles

@ Colin: Good job! Well done maintenance..

I saw his first US performance in Philly, Hot Club 22nd & South St. taped his set list, scribbled on a diners check, on his amp.

a legit 1977 hot club flyer? maybe.... https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/C28AAOSwiatkQZFY/s-l1600.webp

One away!

helluva show Dana K!

thanks, Richard!

🤘🤘🤘🤘

maybe.. could be. it burned down, ironically

great choice hosts!

i love elvis costello!

great album, could pick almost anything from that

That guitar is muscle car music...

Garland Jeffreys "Ghost Writer" what a great record 1977

wait, is my memory correct in that either bauhaus or love and rockets used that pvc2 guitar riff in a song.

My only request would be "Freeze" by the Models, but only if you have time. No worries if you can't fit it in.

1977 was a very fertile year, musically

Woo!

good one scooter!

@ Brian C : Agree,certain guitar style IMHO

Woof woof

🐶

@ alanpaidupnyk all kinds of stuff across all genres. i think it is an era underrated and under appreciated. i was there and i still look back and am surprised.

in the form of a tiger!

Nice

@ Brian C: Profit not as big an issue back then as now...

Just got back to Philly,

Been listening since leaving The Barge

Nice! Glad you made it safe!

I couldn’t help but sing along to Wreckless Eric on the drive

Whole Wide World is such a great bar singalong type song

It's great and the monkees did a pretty decent version of it!

This shit is amazin

How did 77 have room for all this stuff?

You think this is wild, try 1981!

@ pledge.Francis.Commie - Oh wow, I gotta check out the monkees’ version!

@ pledge.Francis.Commie - I did a two-parter 1982 theme for WPRB’s 82nd birthday / (G’s birthday) and a 1978 two-parter for my 40th. Both great music years as well!

78 ALERT

MY BAD

WAIT

FALSE ALARM

LOL

pethie and I did 1981 for wprb's 81st!; AND spoiler alert we're doing 1983 next week!;

jim, the song👽may be the reason for the boom

oh man, I love this Twinkleyz song (and this band in general) but I always thought they were later. Cool this came out in 77

Waow, spoiler alert for next week's episode LOL

That S-S reissue of Alpha Jerk was great!

Alex approveds

Letsss gooo are we not men?

Haha Dana

Who cares!?

He still approves

Yeeeessss

the single came out in 77!

WE GOOD

FULL SEND

What's round at the ends and high in the middle!

👉 👈 👈 👉 👈 👈 👉 👈 👈 👉 !!!!

@Dana K - 😆, I played it on my ‘78 show too! It gets to be both!

D-E-V-O

UNSTOPPABLE

🔊

Yes

Are We Not Men? We Are DEVO! came out the summer I was born. I wish I could say it was the same week!

@ Liz Bot: I remember seeing them on TV and I thought "Wow, somebody's finally doing something outside of the box"

Ride's first EP came out the month I was born. That's all I got.

Star Trek came out the year I was born

wu-tang released 36 chambers on my 19th birthday

ding ding ding!!!

Lizbot came out the year I was born

BOSS JOCKS 💥💥💥

Radio came out the year I was born (kidding)

boss jox

🎶🖤🎶

The Buzzcocks were great live. I saw their first reunion tour.

@ pledge.Francis.Commie - same! We 1978 kids

Only 3 to go! Tell yr friends!!

Woot! Gotta go! But great show Dana and commie.

Thanks for listening!

Thanks ESO!

second ESO!

i graduated hs 1976, so when i say i was there, no bullshit. that said there was so much more than i could possibly absorb. much terrific material. i'm still trying to absorb it.

What a ripper

R..O...C...K...S !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jimbo you seen mascis on his bike yet?

I have not

Just saw horse Lords tho

I was just singing this John Cooper Clark song to myself earlier tonight because my partner Ruth and I were talking about the disgraced UK philosopher Nina Power who started out as a hard left feminist and thef years devolved into writing anti-Trans articles for the conservative UK newspaper the Sun, which just stuck this song in my head because JCC is like "I'll sit right down and write a letter to the Sun" in the first verse.

Thank youuuuuu boss deejays 💥💥💥

Thanks for the excellent show.

wonderful show! thanks!

but 13 is sooooo punk

DOUBLE HEADER GREAT SHOW THANX @ Dana & Commie !!! bcnu! .................................🛸
