let's keep it going, dude

Started da weekend last night and the party continues on the Gem Of Jersey WPRB waza Jen

wprb has been fire of late, DJs in da ZONE

made some red beans n rice for party fuel

that sounds delightful! And WPRB summer is among the best of times!

Dear Jen, thank you for playing our band A Blind History that last couple of weeks. May the Universe smile upon you!

Everyone knows that “ Friday was pizza day, the best day of the week”

Carlos there is a Ween song about pizza day!

hi friends! And hello, Blind History! That EP is great -- it's my pleasure!

I was quoting the Aquabats though…I like that Ween has a few songs about Pork roll

let's put it on today so everyone knows what it's about

noodlin', the guitarist is

Another one coming in August. We think it's fire...

Carlos, yes, multiple songs LOL. Aquabats!

@blind history: AMAZING - please keep me posted!

@carlos has anyone ever made pork roll pizza?? i think it'd be less trashy than it sounds.

porkroll pizza works but would implode my gallbladder on the spot

I would guess someone in the garden state has

Hello Jen!

Jen I thought we were getting more trashy

Perhaps Running Redlights would like to set it free as a world premier?

Friday is Surprise Day on the Mickey Mouse Club: surprise day, surprise day anything can happen and it usually does

Wacky Wednesday!

@blind history you know it!!

hello, @marcus!

ragged voices yelling Yeah!, it's Running Red Lights

bark at the moon!

MC5!

almost!

you heard the DJ & MC5, kick out the jams

great version of this with Rollins on Pump Up the Volume soundtrack

ROCKNROOOOL

it's a prime day for rock and rolling

@ Jen - k - Drop us a line at ablindhistory@gmail and we will figure out the logistics.

🤘🏻

ah, 1979, juicy year for the ol' punk rock, nice find Jen

Cold Cock Sparrer

ha! always loved this song

punk anthems in da haus

I've been on a Boredoms kick lately. They melted off my face. Something to think about sharing en masse if you are seeking requests...

ah the mighty Boredoms

let me see if i have any with me, but i do have some things that may scratch that itch!

Jen in 1985 Stiv Bators and Run-DMC made a record as did Joey Ramone and Kurtis Blow

?!!

Punk Rock and Hip-Hop coming together in "Sun City" by Artists United Against Aparthied

STIV!!

The Sonic Reducer himself

excellent Stiv shoutout , Marcus

The irony that apartheid brought together so many people....

Punk Rockers and Hip-Hoppers were together until the money got too big

Dead Boys at CBGB with Stiv safetypinning cold cuts to his jacket

fuzzy synth solos are punk roke

Damn..France looks good even when they don’t have too

hahah punk synth is questionable. but maybe that's why it's punk.

Just give France the Cup already

Marcus…noooooooooooooooo

we must make punk truly dangerous again, with fuzzedout synthage

D.C. Punk!

banned in DC

The squealing synth became a big think in 70's funk

Go home.....this is the Minneapolis police....the party's over...if you all just grab your stuff & leave there won't be any hassle.

"Kids Don't Follow" - The Replacements

hey man, fuck you! - Dave Pirner, to the MPLS cops

I'm putting A Blind History in the same bin as Honey Radar

wow, i haven't thought of dave pirner in a minute

Home, but not before seeing a Cybertruck with a "baby on board" magnet.

i think they meant "man child"

cyberbaby comin thru

Well played, Jen.

Jen, Dave Pirner is the drunkest person I have ever met besides myself at one point. But a very nice dude.

i hope he's still alive

@jon hahahaha

I did not know whether to shake Dave's hand or put him in rehab, circa 1989.

The Bronze! The Bronze vs biker punks in Mad Max 1979 always makes me smile.

The Grifters were eons ahead of all possible curves.

i love this album so much

Jen, has wprb ever had a negative request, like Please dont play song xyz? Lol

I have a variation on this!

i am SURE we have.

oh??

About 10 years ago during a Membership Drive I was co-hosting and trying to raise a certain dollar amount at which time I would get to shave Chester's hair into a mohawk.

His mom called to pledge and expressly insisted that her total count AGAINST our goal for the evening.

haaaaaaaaaa!

HAHAHAHA that is outstanding

Gave my young son a mohawk once (from a pro barber) and his mom has never, will never forgive me.

Good afternoon all and GO FRANCE!!

Mats!

hello hello!

mohawks were common in the roman empire (on helmets)

In the 50's certain summer camp would give the boys mohawks to symbolize their outdoor lifestyle

At least that's what the books I read as a kid in the 70's led me to believe

that is rad Marcus

Marcus the 1970s were pre-post-truth, so it must be true!

France 3 1 Norway

thank you!

the beginning of this lightning bolt song made me laugh out loud

Lightning Bolt split! L. F. G.

and Senegal 1 0 Iraq

to @blind history, hope that scratches the boredoms itch! more to come

Hat trick from #7

go, teams! i can't decide if i'm rooting harder for senegal or iraq

If these scores hold, Scotland is OUT.

oof poor scotland :(

my Scottish friend who attended the game the other day said the Tartan Army continued to sing anyway

Scotland canne nae git dae!

Lol

But our beer supply will be safe

Haa!

hahahahhah that is seriously one of the funniest parts of the world cup

https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcS_BARXSjZWeknwfU0tLAy1z-T7ksLCOmxg1ODSWL6jeA&s=10

Give them a coors light..that will stop the drinking at one beer

Good Friday energy on this show today

the most embarrassing of "beers"

punchy music to watch world cup to

I started partying with Ceres' brutal metal yesterday afternoon. Rosasolis played some majestically-damaged psych. And we dont stop

this Sea Moss record is unhinged

Mats, I have to start partying at 4 because I fall asleep at midnight so..here we go!

haaaaa that bumper! Reminds me of a spicy godheadSilo moment using Heathers samples.

Marcus cheers mate

Chube disaster! Oi!

hahahaah

If there was ever a show for the Teen Idles Jen, this is it

i like it!

Right the first time OOIOO

Oh Oh Eye Oh Oh?

thank you, @jim :D

it looks like the binary language of moisture evaporators

of course it is!

...but these are not the droids yer lookin for.

Tis, Marcus!

Imagine listening to the conversation, it would be two modems talking

Norway missed a penalty. Put a fork in 'em, they're done

two modems puking at each other, screaming in pain at connecting to the internet

as modems used to do

@ Jen Redlights (host) Fine playlist, as always. Thank you. I agree about French Vanilla, Astro Zombies, Flux of Pink Indians, et al ... everything (semi)old(ish) is new again ... especially on 'PRB

Marcus…too lackadaisical in his attempt

@richard thank you, and it's fun! what's old is new and new is old, and we love it all.

If you listen to the first OOIOO album they sound out the name a lot. It's a Boredoms side proj.

The name of the album is OOIOO.

But sources differ.

jim, I love when bands do that. "we are the Moistboyz." "get down to the sounds of EPMD"

aha! I should go listen to that album! thanks a bunch. I played it in part because of the Boredoms request earlier!

How did this song get on a blues album? This is Jumpin' Jive

foot-stompin' jazz, they call it

they weren't always wallowing in their blues

sometimes shouting about it

blues explosion

hahahahah yes!

SCG! nice one dj

🤘🏻

Oh, you childish Billy!!! Don't you know that love comes in continuous streams at WPRB??? ;-))

hahahahah you tell him, @richard

Arizona shout out! the mighty Meat Puppets

There is one girl in Brazilian Girls

Lol

Senegal now up 3-0 on Iraq.

You can play Deadhead on the radio because nobody can understand what they say

aw poor Iraq :(

Straight Edge Milk Drinkers Unite!

I love melk

Still France 3 1 Norway

Mats: now say radiator and I will know if you're from Jersey or Philly

Teen Idles :-D

@marcus hahahahaha

@rob thank you for the score!

Nietzsche lived on melk one lean winter

i was sent today a video of Norway fans trolling a bunch of people doing yoga in Times Square, and it was the funniest thing I have seen all day.

Poor Iraq. I mean, they were already eliminated, but still, how sad

I really wanted them to do well. But also root for all African teams.

Yup!

shiner playing Sept 9th in Philly, and you all need to go

they have a kinda Queens of Stone Age-y vibe

they are amazing live

Shiner. $55 at milkboy? I am so out of touch

$55?? that's bananas

https://worleygig.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/clockwork-orange-got-milk.jpg

@carlos I see $25

https://www.tixr.com/groups/milkboy/events/shiner-194856

Agreed on $25 price. It took me to a after market site.much more doable

god i hate when the internet pulls that crap. I blame ticketmaster.

for everything, really.

saw Jedi Scum, Herschel Crom, and other powerviolence bands at Burnt Ramen once ... for $2. That, son, is value. In ye olde sketchtastic Richmond, Ca.

Lol Jen

I recently bought tix to a show and they offered a senior discount…don’t know what I’m going to do with those $3

!!!

Carlos is buying cole slaw for everyone. Thank ye Carlos!

love it!

$3 x many shows = some new records ;)

Jen, this show has been non-stop fun!

@marcus i am so glad! it's a good day!

Summer Friday Jen, gotta have my fun

Last time in a record shop I saw prices for new records..29 and up!,

Death Valley Girls!

Great show, what I caught! Ty Jen! Have a great weekend and week everyone

thank you, @rob!

@carlos the prices can be traumatic

tin can with strings to you

very fun show Jen, many thanx. Ridgewood NJ! that's where my mom shoved me into the world

Ah, it was from Flex Your Head not the Minor Disturbance EP

Mats! North Jersey represents!

unless i wrote it down wrong!

@mats it's destiny ! you'd better go

Marcus yessssss. Mahwah, baby.

And the world has been shoving back ever since

Carlos haaaaaaaa! big time

@carlos hahahahahaha
