Hey doctorjazz! Your +ing is a big plus!

🥁

♥ 8:53am listener james from westwood:

Morning morning morning, Doug and all! Huge props, by the way, to every GTDR DJ who has taken the reins as cyber-MC for fellow streamers over these past couple of weeks. Has to help to have a wing person (up to and including Mary Wing!) when you're in a home studio and dealing with a wacky new pledge gadget and all.

♥ 8:58am Doug Schulkind:

Right you are, Listener James from Westwood! Virtual co-hosts help, but actual pledges help more! Good morning!

9:10am mauri:

suns up! hello!

🥁

♥ 9:10am Brian in UK:

Hey ndbob 'n annie.

♥ 9:11am Doug Schulkind:

Good mauri, morning!

9:12am ndbob:

♥ 9:16am Doug Schulkind:

🥁

♥ 9:17am Brian in UK:

Hello mauri, we have some miserable cold weather from over your way. Thanks pal.

♥ 9:23am Doug Schulkind:

Did I say early '60s? How silly of me. This is from 1971

🥁

♥ 9:25am holland oats:

drumma! peoples! papers! smokes!

LOVE these Mike Cooper records, and have UNCLE MICHAEL to thank for it.

9:25am mauri:

we like uk miserable so we do our share to maintain it. you're welcome.

9:26am Mr C:

Think about the good things
That he tried do
Think about sacrifices
That he made for you
Think
about Pledging your support for the Drummer

🥁

♥ 9:30am Brian in UK:

Doug, did Mike C donate one of his shirts?

♥ 9:30am Doug Schulkind:

Holla for holland oats!

Mr C, here are your brandy, slippers and smoking jacket. Welcome, Sir!

🥁

♥ 9:30am Uncle Michael:

Waiting for my turn in the shower (pressure's poor and made the mistake of trying to shower at the same time as the bloke in the next room)...

🥁

♥ 9:30am Uncle Michael:

...yesterday.

🥁

♥ 9:31am Brian in UK:

Uncle you are in the big city.

🥁

♥ 9:32am Uncle Michael:

Jersey City...yep.

♥ 9:32am Doug Schulkind:

Shower me with your pledges, dear listeners. And pass the soap on a rope.

9:34am Mr C:

Michael
You can take the boy of the country
But you can't take the country out of the boy

9:35am Mr C:

BTW
How's that Governor working out for you back home?

🥁

♥ 9:37am Brian in UK:

Spanish tinge. Is that like 'race' music?

♥ 9:38am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
You've got that exactly right.

9:38am Listener Robert:

Pass the rope? No!! Oh, soap on a rope...whew!

♥ 9:40am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Robert
Where's the Pope?

9:40am Listener Robert:

Anyone here know whether the total Nachum announced involves no double counting, i.e. none of it's been part of the WFMU total displayed?

🥁

♥ 9:41am Brian in UK:

Pope Francis is from the Argentine, probably dancing to these sounds.

♥ 9:42am Doug Schulkind:

Can I get a little dab of your love? Just be sure to click the + button, honey.

9:42am Listener Robert:

The Pope smokes dope?

🥁

♥ 9:43am Parq:

Robert, I don't know this for a stone-cold fact, but my understanding is that all of the money Nachum raises is sent into the general fund, so I assume the station total does include the JMAM pledges. Hava nagila!

♥ 9:43am Doug Schulkind:

Some french fries? Some french fries!

🥁

♥ 9:45am Brian in UK:

Is it my imagination or is the running total somewhat behind par this year?

9:46am Listener Robert:

Thanks, Parq, but I meant was any of the total just announced on JM in the AM ALREADY counted in the Web-announced WFMU total, or can we figure by adding it all?

9:46am Listener Robert:

Baby needs a new pair of klystrons!

9:49am Listener dc 108581:

that fucking + button is pissing me off. AND Hi everybody.

🥁

♥ 9:49am Uncle Michael:

Mr. C, my governor i a real piece of work but the Koch brothers think he' doing a bang-up job. Meanwhile...we're all feeling a banged up.

🥁

♥ 9:50am Uncle Michael:

I'm heading over to the ttion...back online with you ll in a bit..

9:50am Listener dc 108581:

[it's ok we can cuss to our hearts content over here]

🥁

♥ 9:50am Uncle Michael:

keyboard troubles!

9:51am Listener Robert:

I remember close to 40 yrs. ago I was collecting donations in a small group of us for $ to affiliate us with an organiz'n, and suddenly I looked at what I had in my hand & announced we were over the top. I wondered how that happened, & later figured I must've erred by counting some of my own out-of-pocket change making -- like the puzzle about the extra shoes or something.

🥁

♥ 9:52am Jeff Golick:

Hey, Doug. Just in time for DSW to soothe my soul.

I know the station needs money; I know you, Doug, have been dealing with some immense family issues; but I just this morning left my iphone on the Long Island Rail Road, so everything is now crap.

♥ 9:53am Doug Schulkind:

Speaking of the Brothers Koch, I did a double-take yesterday morning when I heard that Morning Edition on NPR was brought to us, in part, by Koch Industries.

That is some bullshit right there!

🥁

♥ 9:54am doctorjazz:

Bring it on! Free jazz lives (on FMU!)
(the Ware is actually beautiful!)

🥁

♥ 9:54am Brian in UK:

Once you click the + it will confirm just below the dropdown that you have pledged to Doug's show.

9:55am Listener Robert:

So that's what I was trying to figure here, i.e. excluding the possibility of double counting. If the total Nachum announced a few mins. ago was just raised today, i.e. none of it having figured already into the thermometers on WFMU's front page, then that's extremely impressive.

9:57am Listener dc 108581:

They're taking over everything. Anybody see the article over at huffpost about how the Republicans may be planning to run 3rd-part candidate, ensuring no one will get enough electoral votes enabling congress to appoint the president?? THAT shit is scary.

9:57am Listener Robert:

I've met David Koch about 3 times since 1980. He's a fun & interesting guy. We didn't quite overlap in our rugby-playing years in NYC, though.

♥ 9:58am Doug Schulkind:

@Listener Robert
Nachum's totals each day do get entered into the pledge thermometer. Not sure if all of his total from today is in yet. Today is the last day of the marathon from JM in the AM, so it's always a huge final push for them.

🥁

♥ 9:59am Parq:

I would say that if the thermometer jumps perceptibly in the next hour or so, that'll be our answer. As for NPR, I'm not the least bit surprised. On the contrary, I'm sure someone over there passionately argued that it would be unfair and partisan not to take their money.

10:00am Listener Robert:

Thanks, Doug, and yes, I know the pledgers always seem to have a sense of drama & suspense about it, leading to back-loading of the pledge totals on all the shows, not just Nachum's.

🥁

♥ 10:00am listener james from westwood:

NPR is dead. It died to me when its Planet Money segment was sponsored by Goldman Sachs. They started that segment BECAUSE of the mess fucking Goldman Sachs created!

Pledge to radio that is never a mess. (Except for the old Wreck This Mess program.) Pledge to WFMU for radio that is free from the vampire squid and its blood funnel.

🥁

♥ 10:03am Alex In Illinois:

Back in the late 1980's, when I lived inthe NYC area, I used to listen to a show called "Wasted Vinyl". I think it was freeform. It is where I first heard Najima Ahktar and learned about Asha Bosley. I might call it a precursor to Give The Drummer Some.

🥁

♥ 10:04am Parq:

Alex, that was Rob Weissberg! He changed the name of the show to Trans Pacific Sound Paradise at some point.

♥ 10:04am joe:

'ello folks

🥁

♥ 10:05am Alex In Illinois:

I forgot to mention to everyone that "Wasted Vinyl" was on WFMU. I think I pledged support during that show. I think I still have an old WFMU listener's guide from back then.

10:05am Listener Robert:

Writing of David Koch reminds me: I was always skeptical about Dave Emory's series, but still found it interesting. I wondered whether he'd ever get around to fingering ME as part of a conspiracy. Not quite, but one day he mentioned people that I knew, and that's when I switched from listening to his show seriously to listening for laughs.

10:06am Mr C:

Hey ho
Let's go
I'm all in with the Mambo
I'm upping my pledge....

10:06am ndbob:

I just listen to the NPR Hourly News - that's about it

♥ 10:06am joe:

Make sure that if you are pledging to a specific show you be sure to press the + button after you select the show name.

🥁

♥ 10:08am Jeff Golick:

I would like to belatedly thank Brian in UK for introducing me to my new favorite holiday, World Sleep Day.

Of course, were you to ask my kids, they'd say that for me EVERY day is World Sleep Day. I love to sleep, you see.

Meanwhile, my phone is now headed back under the East River on the LIRR, and the joke's on them because she didn't pay a fare.

🥁 ♥ 10:09am duke:

Thanks Doug!
Also Thanks for all the great shows over the years.
When I started listening to WFMU many moons ago, I worried that Give The Drummer Some would be nothing but drum solos (such a show could exist on WFMU). I'm glad I overcame my fears.

♥ 10:11am Doug Schulkind:

Don't tempt me, duke! I love a good challenge.

10:12am Listener dc 108581:

Wow. What a tune, Caravan!

♥ 10:12am Doug Schulkind:

Hello, Jeff "D:O Radio" Golick!

♥ 10:12am Doug Schulkind:

It's on the premium, Listener dc "pat" 108581.

10:13am lucyinbrooklyn:

morning to you from sunny brooklyn

♥ 10:13am Hugo:

Perhaps three hours of drum solos are overdoing it a bit. But three hours of honouring and celebrating drummers sound like a good idea. Was there ever a show like that?

🥁

♥ 10:14am holland oats:

thai caravan, who knew?

🥁

♥ 10:14am Jeff Golick:

Hi, Doug.

🥁 ♥ 10:15am βrian:

Bonjour, Monsieur Doug !

♥ 10:16am joe:

@Parq I've gone almost a whole marathon with out seeing you

🥁 ♥ 10:16am βrian:

What a lovely avatar you have, Hugo.

♥ 10:17am Doug Schulkind:

Good morning, sunnylucyinbrooklyn!

Howdy, Hugo!

Greetings, βrian!

'ello, Joe! THANKS for the pledge.

🥁

♥ 10:17am Parq:

I have noted that as well, Joe, although your Instagram posts have been helping to fill the void a bit. I'm taking my traditional seat in the phone room during the Hoof and Mouth finale, if that helps. Everyone, if you're in the building that night, come to the 4th floor and say hi. I'll be the fat old guy.

🥁

♥ 10:18am Artie Haywire:

Are there no procrastinators among us?!?

🥁 ♥ 10:19am βrian:

@Artie: I made until yesterday. Then I blew my savings on Charlie's show.

♥ 10:19am Doug Schulkind:

Parq is here! Artie Haywire is here! I'm glad you're here.

🥁

♥ 10:20am doctorjazz:

@Parq-you'll have fat/old guy competition!

🥁

♥ 10:21am Brian in UK:

@Artie I am anticrastination personally.

🥁

♥ 10:22am Uncle Michael:

I am here!

♥ 10:22am Doug Schulkind:

@βrian
Charlie's shows are blow-worthy.

♥ 10:22am Doug Schulkind:

Uncle Michael in the hoooowwwwwwse!

10:23am Listener Robert:

I've got to salute people like Parq who'll staff the phone room during Hoof & Mouth. It's like I was so appreciative of those who had to be at the station when Hoof & Mouth was at Maxwell's & so had to miss all of it. How you can love something so much that you're willing to miss some of it to help others partake, amazes me. Salute!

🥁

♥ 10:24am Artie Haywire:

@βrian: This new swag-for-life lifestyle got me out of the gates early, but now I've go that 'cheering from the sidelines' feeling. Unclaimed prizes?!? Absurd! Let me shout again - "Shekels for all my friends!!"

10:24am ifny:

Good morning drummers!

🥁 ♥ 10:24am βrian:

Shekels and goulash!

🥁

♥ 10:25am Artie Haywire:

Doug ain't got a lick of crast in him.

10:25am Raissa:

Hi Doug, Love your show like crazy! just re-newed my Swag for life pledge (by USPS) with credit to your show & the stream. thank you for playing david s ware.

🥁

♥ 10:26am Artie Haywire:

Rock on, Raissa!

10:26am Flash Strap:

good morning everyone! Hello doug!

♥ 10:26am Listener Scott:

John Cohen: also one of my photography profs at SUNY Purchase. Great guy.

🥁

♥ 10:28am Uncle Michael:

Check your email, Doug.

♥ 10:29am Doug Schulkind:

Thank, UM!

🥁

♥ 10:31am Parq:

Robert, thanks, but honestly, I started doing it after I realized that I enjoyed it more than being at Maxwell's. I will admit, it's more fun now, with people from the party stopping upstairs to check in.

10:31am Mayuko:

Good morning Doug and all!

♥ 10:32am Doug Schulkind:

Cool, Listener Scott!

HEY, Raissa! One of the longest-running members of the GTDS family. Always thrilled to see you!

Welcome, honored Grand Prize-creator Flash Strap!

And Mayuko is here. I am smiling wide!

🥁

♥ 10:32am Parq:

I gotta commute. See y'all later. UM, welcome to the east coast, and kill 'em this afternoon.

🥁

♥ 10:33am doctorjazz:

@Artie Haywire...know the feeling, spreading the Swag-for-life pledge around, but it doesn't feel the same, you know the money is already contributed. Seems silly, but you lose something in the process (but, FMU gains, probably the best way for them to have income stream throughout the year).

♥ 10:33am Doug Schulkind:

Commute safely, Parq!

♥ 10:35am Doug Schulkind:

Hey hey hey, good morning ifny! Almost missed ya! (I live in fear of missing a comment.)

♥ 10:37am Doug Schulkind:

♥ 10:40am Listener Scott:

Idea for premium next year: t-shirts that read I MEANT TO GIVE THE DRUMMER SOME BUT ACCIDENTALLY PLEDGED TO MARTY McSORLEY'S SHOW INSTEAD.

Back of shirt: BUT THAT'S OKAY BECAUSE WFMU

10:40am βrian:

Here in Wisconsin, the executive and legislature *is* subsidized by the Koch brothers.

♥ 10:41am Listener Scott:

Uncle Mike can have same shirt but with Bryce instead of Marty

🥁

♥ 10:41am Jeff Golick:

Joe is also a master at administering back-office stuff that boggles my mind.

🥁

♥ 10:42am Jeff Golick:

My phone is now at Penn Station. Feeling a little bad for it, but hoping this means an LIRR employee has brought it back to place in lost & found...

10:43am βrian:

Someone ought to commission a black velvet portrait of Joe, bare-chested and on horseback.

♥ 10:44am Lane Gray:

Y'all give! I gave already (twice, because the first 75 went to the wrong show)

♥ 10:44am joe:

Sorry guys I can't get with this fat old guy thing. I'll be the fat middle aged guy.

10:44am βrian:

I just lost my phone, Jeff. It has no idea where it is, nor do I.

🥁

♥ 10:45am Artie Haywire:

Bare-chested, on horseback, and ably herding a field full of variety wildlife.

♥ 10:45am Doug Schulkind:

Great to see you, Lane Grey! There aren no "wrong" shows, of course, because all the $$$ goes to WFMU. But there is a "right" show, and I'd love it if y'all would pledge "right" now!

♥ 10:45am Lane Gray:

I gave twice to Bryce, and just emailed Joe to have him reassign it, to Michael, Doug and Debbie

🥁

♥ 10:46am Jeff Golick:

Phone-miserating with you, @βrian. The music is helping.

♥ 10:46am Doug Schulkind:

Yeeks, Jeff Golick!

10:47am βrian:

Ach, for me a phone is really a watch that has the ability to text. A $38 special.

10:49am ifny:

Ok ok you got me, I'll pledge again. This album sounds fantastic. What's that phone number again? (Can't use Instapledge from Canada since it doesn't believe in provinces.)

🥁

♥ 10:49am Jeff Golick:

My main phone uses these days: texting grocery lists; reading political articles; listening to WFMU. Not in that order.

🥁

♥ 10:50am listener james from westwood:

Still waiting for my clients to shake money loose; hoping the morning mail brings $ so I can help UM or even this show if it arrives in time!!

♥ 10:52am Lane Gray:

Wfmu has already gotten three times what I gave to KKFI and the station in Knoxville whose call I've forgotten,AND WAMU (I was raised on public and community radio).

10:53am ifny:

Found it. 1-201-413-9368 for the not-in-Americans.

10:54am ifny:

Now I'm going to cross my scissors and hope that I win!

♥ 10:54am Doug Schulkind:

@ifny
I'm sure you can pledge online from Canada. Others have accomplished it.

🥁

♥ 10:55am Brian in UK:

@ifny I never need provinces from here.

🥁

♥ 10:56am Brian in UK:

....just inside leg measurement.

10:56am ifny:

@Doug Not when I tried last week -- the drop down menu only gives states, which messes up the billing profile for Canuckistanians. I'm happy for others who succeed where I have failed however!

♥ 10:57am Doug Schulkind:

Now atop the playlist page, art from our Grand Prize, EXPEDITION, a book of sumptuous collages by Evan "Flash Strap" Crankshaw. Pledge $75 to be in the running for the grand prize.

10:58am ifny:

@Brian Ha! I just measure by the sunrise.

♥ 10:58am Lane Gray:

Be back in half an hour. ISIHAC awaits

🥁 ♥ 10:58am βrian:

By golly, ifny is right. There's no option to select a province, even when Canada is selected as the country. Wha??

🥁

♥ 10:59am Brian in UK:

@Lane 76 Trombones to the tune of All Things Bright and Beautiful.

10:59am ifny:

@ βrian: don't say it too loud. You'll ruin my reputation.

♥ 11:01am Lane Gray:

theme music to I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue is from the film Monte Carlo or Bust as an adaptation of Haydn’s Austrian Hymn. It has another name as a jazz tune:

♥ 11:02am Hugo:

There was a great version of Mathie Grove by Fairport Convention on their Liege & Lief album. I haven't heard this one before.

🥁 ♥ 11:04am βrian:

I hope all the pledged funds don't have to go toward fixing the web site. What a slurry of offal!

🥁

♥ 11:04am Brian in UK:

Hello Hugo, guessing this was recorded a few years before the Fairports.

♥ 11:06am Lane Gray:

"The Schickel Shamble"

♥ 11:07am Doug Schulkind:

@Hugo
Mathie Grove has also been recorded with the titles "Lord Daniel's Wife" and "Little Musgrove."

♥ 11:07am Lane Gray:

Oops. I'd thought you were commenting on the theme. I'm still on my first cup of coffee. That's brilliant

♥ 11:08am joe:

@ifny don't want to speak for Doug but one option of what you might do is put the correct city in and select any state than leave a note in the comments field that you are in Canada.

11:10am chromaphone:

I was listening to Fairport Conventions "Matty Groves" just the other day which is great.

♥ 11:13am Doug Schulkind:

Hello chromaphone!

♥ 11:13am Doug Schulkind:

11:13am Mayuko:

Hooray for Flash Strap and his book! www.evancrankshaw.com...

11:13am chromaphone:

Hi guy.

11:14am Flash Strap:

god her phrasing on this is identical to Porter Wagoner's usual affectations. Sounds exactly like the way he sings "Cassie"

makes sense, of course

11:14am ifny:

@Joe I believe the problem with that is that it messes up billing -- you must have the same address that your CC has or it will automatically not approve the submission. So it wouldn't allow the donor to complete the transaction. Although since WFMU's interface is custom, perhaps they customised that plug-in. I didn't get that far so I don't know. But then, it is always a nice excuse to phone in and talk to the super friendly phone volunteers :)

🥁 ♥ 11:15am βrian:

Dolly is the Piaf Américain.

11:15am Guy Hofman:

Hi chromaphone

11:15am Flash Strap:

SUCH a good comp, my god

🥁

♥ 11:16am Brian in UK:

Reminds me of the Bill Withers track where he shoots himself.

🥁

♥ 11:16am Alex In Illinois:

Oui βrian!

♥ 11:16am Lane Gray:

I prefer the gal before Dolly. Dolly has the hills in her voice, Norma Jean has the honky-tonk in hers

♥ 11:17am Doug Schulkind:

@Brian in UK
That gunshot at song's end is always a shock.

♥ 11:17am Hugo:

Hello Brian, did you catch the Northern Lights on your trip up north?

11:17am Unclear on the concept:

Not worried about my credit card in heaven -- got my home-equity line of credit!

11:18am Flash Strap:

whoa guys– I don't know this Bill Withers song? help me out

🥁 ♥ 11:19am βrian:

Same for to John Prine's "Paradise," Doug.

Here is an essay on the subject of gunshots in song: www.theatlantic.com...

11:20am chromaphone:

Wow, this one is bizarre on a few different levels.

🥁 ♥ 11:20am βrian:

"empty pop bottles was all we would kill." Heh.

11:20am Flash Strap:

i have homework to do then–Thanks Doug

🥁

♥ 11:20am Brian in UK:

Hugo, yes on the Saturday evening as we were dog sledding the sky cleared and just as we stopped they came out. Stunning. A very enjoyable, if short holiday.

🥁

♥ 11:21am Alex In Illinois:

In a novel by Phillip K. Dick, they do shoot down "God". Well, they shoot down an alien satellite that transmits visions to people.

11:22am ifny:

Wow. Are They Gonna Shoot God. Epic.

♥ 11:23am Lane Gray:

Gonna have to listen to this show on the archive... I'm missing a cool half hour..

Yup. Just another Longtime & Long-Toothed listener on the Bus.

🥁

♥ 11:32am Brian in UK:

Hugo, you could see them here the weekend after we returned. Think we went one week too early but that is how it is.

🥁

♥ 11:32am Alex In Illinois:

I think the T-Shirts should list the on-line streams on the back, or maybe even the front, so that more people will know that they can listen to WFMU around the world.

🥁 ♥ 11:35am βrian:

I have to say I'm not impressed with the T-shirt this year. I love the simplicity of the Woof-Moo design. So it goes.

Yes, this is over Northumberland:

🥁

♥ 11:49am Parq:

I realize this is a side point, and overly serious, but I can't let that crack about "so much hate on the left and the right" pass. The notion that the left is motivated by hate as much as the right is bullshit the right dreamed up. They realized that they had gone so far into the realm of childish, hateful behavior that they only way they could save face with America was to spread the lie that both sides are equally as bad.
