A lot of music could be called that. Even noise. Shoegaze though?

It's very weird. I was in a dentist office, he was running late and I ended up leafing through a TV mag that somehow mentioned WFMU. I wrote that down, first show was Terre T, changed my life

Hi, WR! It's a box set of some rarities that came out in the 90s.
Avatar 🎸 2:22pm
tom tom the pipers son:

this is probably the most i've listened to firesign, i like the dark undercurrent, but i'd say it's a product of it's time in some respects like when they refer to other countries or cultures, they exude a sense of american exceptionalism, even though they undercut it, and a basking in the glow of post ww2 america success, before vietnam seeped into america's consciousness
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:27pm
Krys O.:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:22
They have always satirized that exceptionalism. It was done on the sly as to not be labeled as subversive early on.

The best collection of FST is Dear Friends. I listened to it a lot as a kid and bits were aired on WLIR in the 70s.
Avatar 🎸 2:31pm
tom tom the pipers son:

↳ tom tom the pipers son @2:22
yes, like i said they undercut it, but they also have a sort of confidence about their place in the world as amercans, that i can't imagine a comedy group having today

Phillip Proctor said, "We each independently created our own material and characters and brought them together, not knowing what the others were going to pull. And it was all based on put-ons; that is, we were assuming characters that were assumed to be real by the listeners. No matter how far out we would carry a premise, if we were tied to the phones we discovered the audience would go far ahead of us. We could be as outrageous as we wanted to be and they believed us—which was astonishingly funny and interesting and terrifying to us, because it showed the power of the medium and the gullibility and vulnerability of most people."

thx, right like coyle and sharpe, and that's when media was new that it was terrifying, now we're both fully aware of it's power and exploitation and just as gullible for some reason
Avatar 🎸 2:48pm
tom tom the pipers son:

i think what i'm trying to say about firesign is not a criticism but just trying to point out a belief in rationalism and the enlightenment behind it, which seem a little out of reach now, or maybe not, i'm not so sure
