"I've Had Enough" by The Who. The Sonic Bloom Tue Sep 22 with Esoterica on WPRB Princeton 103.3 FM

hey

Sup!

Mere seconds left to pregame before the music starts

y0y0

MAYBE SOME GUMBO!! BAM!!!!

3 hours of summer left..make it a good send off

hey !

let's get our solstice on!

howdy chef! gumbo-laya-magic

hoy Carlos and Michael!

Hi, there, Tandy!

Finally! Quadrophenia. The most under appreciated rock opera ever. Movie just so so. Can you open your show with a different track instead of Dirty Harry ;-)

hey Don!

ha thanks!

maybe I will circulate diff lalo schifrin tracks from soudtrack here and there how's that?;)

I agree re: quadrophenia

I enjoy many opinions of journalist Jim DeRegotis, when he hates on The Who I absolutely disagree with him. Hi ESO!

I thought "Arthur" was the most under appreciated rock opera ever.

That seems like a pretty big request from the peanut gallery..new opening song!!

Bought a Honda scooter in 1984 that nearly killed me in the first week. Music from Quadrophenia always takes me there again in a good mod way.

haha that's what I thought, carlos

I'm intrigued by this Jim DeRegotis. The Who are undercriticized.

wow IConJohn. glad you were ok

David Arthur, like Dudley Moore's Arthur haha

??

Hi! David, IConJohn!

Real bad leg injury, chronic limp and arthritis now. But still biking and windsurfing. Can't run or jog.

Hi Esoterica and all peoples in the chat! I am totally getting my solstice on! And enjoying every song and sound that comes out of my speakers while listening to your show! :-)

Funny about scooter and Quadraphonia. Never had a scooter, but album was key part of my wasted youth.

Alan Vega was 2 years younger than my parents. Blew my mind when I found out how old he was, especially him playing The Hot Club back in the day.

Speaking of Asbury Park, I was surprised by my difficulty finding parking space when I went to Wild Air Beerworks on Saturday. I honestly didn't know that Sea Hear Now was happening.

hey hey hey

yo, Angie!

Miss you girl!

haha David, that is an unfortunate mistake - it gets crazy there then

Is that June's real name? I used to think Victor Von Doom was a corny name; now I'm not so sure.

wow, IConJohn, yeah that was surprising to me when I just read about him being older than folks thought.

@Don - I had a parka with the target on the back, cut my hair like a sixties mod. so into it

New June! Love this 💙

yeah it is great, Tandy

I am honestly new to her

or should I say she is new to me haha

How many Rockers did you duke it out with?

haha you know I was a poser

or should I write poseur

miss you too!!!!!!!! i’m at work

haha better not get in trouble haha

Yow. Alan Vega is of my parents' generation! Older than any Beatles or Stones (excepting Bill Wyman).

wow!

Anyone there?

Alien transmissions were emanating...

Howdy, jimboooo

oh no

I can hear my show on the radio here

can you hear me now?

Silent here, heard a phone call or message interrupt first

hmm

Loud and clear in western Monmouth County (outside the shore's mysterious static field that has been plaguing 103.3 since a fateful day in 2006).

Wonder if anyone else can confirm? I'm on web.

Now I hear

phew

Hello Esoterica and everyone! I have streamed WPRB for like the past 13 minutes without a problem

Hello, Rob!

Oh, good.

I think the issue was on my end!

oh ok

Sorry for panic induction!

I loved the Fallen Leaves at Maxwell's in 2008. The group featured 2 founding members of Subway Sect.

it's fine:)

This mushy weirdly great

I like Mush

ATV also stands for their song "Action Time Vision". I used to think that was a Billy Childish original until I saw Alternative TV play it at Maxwell's.

oh yeah david

hi there

hi Andrew!

I'm doing yardwork and I've been doing it faster when the music speeds up

alrighty then!

good for you

i appreciate the upbeat tunes!

I will try to keep it uptempo

That sounded like a good song that just got cut off!

That's a great and underappreciated album

Steve McQueen prefab sprout, yes agree

hi sean

:0 happy fall

The album is called "Steve McQueen"? I saw "The Great Escape" for the first time ever 2 weeks ago at the Princeton Garden Theatre.

how was it, I think I have only seen bits and pieces and I love movies. must see it

yes the name of the album is actually Steve mcqueen

It's incredible it took me so long to finally see that great film. In "Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood", Rick Dalton fantasizes himself getting the part that went to McQueen.

wow! I find that hard to believe too, David, since I think you are also super into movies.

mr. phylzzz ! Helluva show so far dj!

Heathen Axe!!

hey there mats!

thx!!

yes!!

mr. phylzzz member has a new supergroup with those miscreants in Melvins! The creativity never ceases

so good

love Melvins as you know

This song is BROWN

Recorded in Holgate, LBI, NJ!

haha yes it is

amazing

Holgate: Deep South of LBI, LOL

LOL

Ween singlehandedly kept the Holgate liquor store alive during the deep winter when recording.

sure they did

The tribute band "Songs by Ween" played at Randy Now's Man Cave three days ago.

oh really, how are they?

David S nice! I love how Deaner has played with Ween tribute bands.

I was at the Hunchback/Lowcocks/Cotillion show in Asbury Park that night.

Very postmodern to play with a tribute band playing your own songs.

that's true, mats

I recognize that tune "Soft Collapse". Some DJ uses it as his bed music between sets. I can't remember who.

David S good ear!

yes, good ear

RIP Cheetah C! I always admire punx who make it past 45 LOL. Dude was 71!

That's 219 in punk years.

yes it is, you are right

I wonder if that story in "Please Kill Me" about Cheetah and the guinea pigs is true.

David S haaaaaaaa! Given the Dead Boys, there's a good chance....

oh, god no

Iggy!

oh yeah!!

In the new biopic "Tony", the young Anthony Bourdain (played by Dominic Sessa) wears a Stooges T-shirt. "Down on the Street" is in the soundtrack. (It was in the "Kong: Skull Island" soundtrack too!)

I want to see that new flick

David S good intel.

Anthony Bourdain's book kitchen confidential went deep into his love for the dead boys, too

Tom W! Ran into Tom in Sonoma County, Ca once. He held a door open for me. To a bookstore.

dj that's right!

that is cool, he held the door open for ya:)

love waits

well said, dj

:)

porkroll!!!! yessssssss

You interviewed a Bauhaus member! Rad! Legendary.

Dead Boys fans can be found in unexpected places. Another NJ radio DJ discovered her chiropractor used to go see them in the 70's.

Guzzle is a great word. Pigface has a song called "Dribble," love that word too.

yes it is - it sounds like drinking a beer

David S haaa!

yes I did interview him via zoom, David s was a gentleman and really interesting

Fluid mechanics! The math of liquids, fascinating.

less a fan of dribble

ha the word

Peter M of Bauhaus playing with nine inch nails is some of the heaviest shit ever. So good.

I recently saw "The Hunger" for the first time since it opened in 1983. I didn't realize the movie featured the singers for Bauhaus, Pulsallama and Clear Light!

oh yeah mats

saw NIN last year - great

I love the hunger- eat flick

Thanks Eso! 💥💥💥

great flick I mean haha

Thx, jimbooo

David S classic early 80s cinema! Early 1980s scifi/horror rules.

:)

Always a pleasure, dj, thanks for curating the tunes! Cheers.

NIN has come a lonnnng way since the early destruction days playing live. Gumption!

thx mats!

thx everyone!
