helllooo!

hi Commie Francis!

Hi Commie! And if Dana K gave you the no de plume of Commie Francis that is outrageously awesome.

she did! someone called in and called me a commie pinko and i was like should i change my name to connie pinko and dana said no commie francis

Hi Commie Francis!

Commie Francis is clever like Gnarls Barkey. Now I need to start making a list.

26 + 6 still equals 1 right Commie

yes. would you like to hear a song about bernadette devlin?

u b the boss , thanks

Evening everyone!

hiya rob!

Real fun drive home with your show on.

i've been having fun with it! thanks!

@Commie, this Anis Kiitu song is wonderfull!!!!

better L8 than NVR - i just tuned in YAY COMMIE at the HELM 👍😎 !!

hiya a.d.!

✌✌

It's a great Fri-day night with Commie! 🎶

AND ~ Status Quo also

i forget just how long mob has been around. they actively released albums well into my adult years. in my head they are like a newish band

that's funny! i definitely always thought of them as old as hell

i'm gonna have to steal tandy's line and say... JAM ALERT! 🚨 🚨 🚨

new-ish, they are a 90s band in my little head filing system.

90s was only about 5 years ago right?

nah more like 10

for the official record, I know nothing about how I remember the other radio handle.

that last set had me boppin!

💀

Evening commy

Hiya Commie and Ossy and everyone

hi ossy and richard de hill rocky!

Howdeeee do erryone

i've asked drum and bass heads if drums and wires was a sub genera, only one ever got it.

jim de tomates!

i ate a lot of tomatoes tonight, i had many heaping spoonfuls of a spicy tomato heavy pica topping my dinner tonight

my total dinner was about 33% pica

🖤

Delicious

and evening Richard!

hi Ossy!

I got ONE jar of salsa left from last year's tomatoes...this year's better get in gear

100% school bus walkman cassette vibes

my parents have already pre-warned me of the incoming garden cucumbers

Lordy, lordy,I I was biking through West Allegany and hearing "Peasant Valley" on the radio.. Not sure how to process that quite yet.. :).

I'll probably have cukes within the week

Hi!

hiya roffle. and jim!

peasant valley! is that the new poison ruin song?

In context maybe...

I dunno, but the contrast was insane.

Had to be there?

lol

i can see what you are saying!

hi commie f and comrades

Heads up, Johnny Brenda's is not serving outside due to heat. It was pleasant outside though! If they want to walk over dollars to get to dimes, that's not a great business model. But I live up the street. I sat outside during a rain storm and got served outside with food. I wonder why. But what ever...

that is weird, it's not really that hot the last couple of days!

It's not hot at all at this hour. Just weird.

I like the crew there, so I was not going to worry about it.

I usually do the mushrooms and drink a Guinness. That's my science..

Good night Commie, thx for this great show. Everyone stay cool!

Dream well Rob

night rob!

tweet dreams

Great tunes, Commie! Thanks for a fab Friday, Jazz

thanks janice!

er jazz :)

i was 100 lookin around the internet for more young wasteners just now.

denmark turn of the last century was such a killer scene

nocturnal habitat enrichments just hit different

i gat a wasteners bandcamp tab open for later....

oh interesting the label that put out their records has a bandcamp

pretty much all the bands from that scene are on there

its the right wasteners?

dude.... this rips too 🚨

welp, it looks like that bandcamp is gonna see a lot of me in the coming days

https://hjernespind.bandcamp.com/album/young-wasteners

they don't have the record i played up though

it's in the header haha

also missing gorilla angreb

chances are you got the only copy?

i don't think it's expensive or hard to find!

@ Commie Francis (1) (host) thanks again for another outstanding show

Lucidvox was quite expressive there.

Oh, hey. Thanks Commie. Hear you about.

Close and Play!

thanks for fillin in!

hey chat, you're the best!

Thanks Commie! It's been a great show all night, have a good weekend!

thanks commie!
