hi sissies!

YAY sat-urrr- DAY w COMMIE !!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎👍!!

Good evening. My wounded foot prohibits me from seeing M.D.C. in New Brunswick; or Panic Shack or the Gruesomes on East Houston Street (about a block away from each other!).

oops vol 2

Happy Saturday everyoneeee

aw sorry to hear it david

you will just have to listen to meeee your wounded dj

OMG!!! I've always loved this Badfinger song and knowing that The Brady Bunch covered (!!) it only makes me love it more!!!💘

isn't it sweet! i love badfinger a LOT

Between your playing that, and Scratchy Vinyl Tim playing the theme of Season 2 of the '70s show 'Rhoda', this might just be the BEST. SATURDAY. EVER!!!

wow season TWO of a spinoff of another show, deep 70s tv cuts!

Right?! I had forgotten that that 'Rhoda' theme song was just a lalalalala sung characteristically out-of-tune by a kid's chorus! It brought me back so sweetly to my childhood...

Aw, thank you for playing my Soft Machine request!💚🧡💜 It always sounds so much much better when you play it on the air, Commie

CBS canceled “Rhoda” early in its 5th season, without airing the last four episodes. In 2000, a revival was attempted with the pilot “Mary and Rhoda”, but everybody hated it.

Ha! Yes

This one sure gets your money's worth

diggen this one big time

alice cooper is another artist i was kind of "eh" on then bill taught me how much they ruled.

alice cooper the band only for me pls

btw alice cooper is the name of betty cooper's mom in archie comics

I love the idea of sitting out somewhere and someone puts this on the jukebox

I might fall out of my chair

brilliant move

steve is that kinda guy

Cool to hear about the Sun Ra mural! Used to live on Greene St

a friend of mine was saying she went to one of marshall allen's monthly performance things at solar myth and he was just going up to people saying "i'm a hundred and two!"

walter,he no get enemy

Wait I lived right on that block where the mural is! If I were 102 I would tell ERRYBODY

my friend tried to buy a magical untouched mansion 1 block from there!

Did Betty's mom appear in comics? I thought Alice was an invention for the TV show "Riverdale".

I discovered Alice Cooper when he guest-appeared on "The Muppet Show".

you know she did first appear in the comics but it was the later weird comics. so probably is a reference to the band/singer rather than other way around

"The tail wagged the dog", as I like to put it. Like how the Superman radio show created Jimmy Olsen, Perry White and kryptonite.

I assume that Alice Cooper song is where Alan Moore got the title for Swamp Thing #30.

i imagine so!

Wow that was an incredible listening experience for the short little drive I had to do. Shout out to student DJ Nicky for showing me that Wedding Present song years ago

casey!

I finally got to see the Subhumans two years ago, at Salty’s Beach Bar in Lake Como. I wonder if that’s the only time they ever played in NJ.

songs siiiiiiick

I didn't notice that the Fall's "Hip Priest" was in the soundtrack for "The Silence of the Lambs".

i'm sure subhumans have played nj before, they tour so much
