hi tAndy and liz!!
Liz Bot
12:23:40 PM
The Blue Hearts song reminds me of a great Japanese movie I saw named after a Blue Hearts song, Linda Linda Linda. These high school girls form a Blue Hearts cover band
Commie Francis (1) (host)
12:24:29 PM
i think i remember you telling me about that, when i did a show of fake/fictional punk and i think you or i managed to track down the version of that song from the soundtrack
Commie Francis (1) (host)
12:24:40 PM
i need to watch that!
Liz Bot
12:25:01 PM
(Not to be confused with the band The Linda Lindas!) this movie is from 2005. I loved it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linda_Linda_Linda
Commie Francis (1) (host)
12:25:13 PM
blue hearts are huge in japan i think
Liz Bot
12:26:39 PM
@Commie Francis - I have the track of the girls playing Linda Linda from the film. It’s so good! Played it a few times on PRB. I think yeah I mentioned it when you asked for suggestions for the fictional punk songs show
Liz Bot
12:28:22 PM
Some of the girls went on to form their own bands IRL after the film. Baseball Bear, me-ism, etc
Robin

Bryan Swirsky
1:59:14 PM
Morgan Fischer from Mott. a true weirdo. btw there are at least three other Adrian Borland related projects you should check out: The Crazies. Second Layer. the Outsiders. All great and weird
Commie Francis (1) (host)
2:00:51 PM

Commie Francis (1) (host)
2:02:32 PM
i have a lot of nostalgia for recording that portlandia station id. i came up with the idea and pax and i recorded it while waiting for phones to ring during one of the last wprb membership drives to involve phones. 2018 or 2019
Bryan Swirsky
2:04:02 PM
Morgan Fisher joined in 74 and stayed until around 1980. he had some projects going that were hawkwind adjacent. still active and still left of center.
Commie Francis (1) (host)

Commie Francis (1) (host)
2:34:17 PM

TAndy
2:41:56 PM
Ooh!! I can't wait for the NYE show
John Coffey
2:43:40 PM
I was thinking it was a Gang of Four cover when I heard it live. But now it's a ripoff!
