long live anal magic
  3:03pm
Dave B:

get me thru the rest of the work day Irwin!
  3:07pm
Spencer:

Yes! Rare Amanda tracks!
  3:07pm
Dave B:

AMANDA!
  3:08pm
to a MR. DAVE B:

thats what i said
  3:10pm
BSI:

Amanda is the son of GOD.
...or something.
  3:11pm
Amanda Fan Club:

Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Our sweet girl. Such joy.
  3:12pm
Lawrence Welk:

Wunnerful Wunnerful! She sure would fit right in with my musical family!
  3:13pm
sounds like a real toy typewriter:

TO A MR. ANYONE
  3:14pm
Spencer:

Thanks for that Irwin! Now you can play whatever you like for a bit.
  3:20pm
BSI:

Spencer: don't set Irwin free TOO much.
He's gotta treat Amanda tracks with the same scheduled reverance as station IDs... We all need a regular fix.
  3:24pm
Parq:

And, thanks to the new RIAA reporting requirements, Miss Amanda gets a shiny new 37 cents every time Irwin treats us to another one of her stellar performances.
  3:26pm
to a MR. PARQ:

i got 13 cents on IT NUKS
  3:27pm
Ike:

37 cents? Really? So it costs more than some jukeboxes? It's not $0.037 or $0.0037? That's insane.
  3:28pm
Spencer:

BSI: You're right. I should have specified that: a bit = 10 minutes or 3 songs max.
  3:39pm
Parq:

A confession: I got the 37-cent figure from listening to one of Ken's monologues this AM, and not listening terribly closely at that. But guys, don't you think Amanda is *worth* 37 cents a play?
  3:39pm
ginger tim:

A Slam Dunk!!
  3:39pm
Joe Bacon:

Ah, the return of Candypants! :-)
  3:40pm
Parq:

eeeYESS! CANDYPANTS! YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE DOING A BREAK-DANCE! Whatever the hell that was.
  3:40pm
Laura L:

Irwin, you got a mattress on your back?
  3:41pm
gumby:

are candy pants like edible underwear?
  3:41pm
Clark Barr:

A Slam Dunk in Swimming Trunks!
  3:43pm
Dead Corporate Eyes:

Irwin is definitely playing to the crowd with this set...
  3:43pm
D.B. Cooper:

I have heard this Amanda several times now on WFMU, what is the story behind her?
  3:45pm
to a MR. D.B. COOPER:

SHE IS YOUR LORD AND SAVIOR
  3:47pm
D.B. Cooper:

Yes, but I would like to know more about my lord and savior, you can't have religion without mythology.
  3:50pm
Bad Ronald:

@ DBC - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBySvb5zBNg
  3:52pm
Parq:

Coop, Amanda is like Santa Claus or that kid who suckered Armistad Maupin - we can't offer you proof, you just have to believe.

PS - Note: "suckered" -- ER-ed. Wiseguy . . .
  4:07pm
Amanda Fan Club:

It's great to see the innocent newcomers just waiting to be saved by Amanda's grace
  4:11pm
Dave B:

Perhaps we can have an Amanda Fund Raiser to get some of her stuff pressed. From someone close:

"We hope to press a record at some point of Amanda's exploits for sure, as soon as I can save up enough money.:
  4:17pm
Lizardner Dave:

Uh, this is going to be mashed or Traktored....right?
  4:18pm
Irwin:

Pray, Dave. Pray hard.
  4:18pm
?:

Oh, joy. An ironic song selection. Suck is still suck.
  4:20pm
Irwin:

That spin was irony-deficient.
  4:22pm
Happy Listener:

Irwin, thanks for playing "Empty Boy", your buddy Lane sounds awesomely influenced by XTC.
  4:24pm
Spencer:

I really liked "Empty Boy"! As Happy Listener said, very reminiscent of XTC.
  4:29pm
Happy Listener:

@Rad Bonald: I'm curious, does Amanda know she's on the 'net, and is "Jerserf" aware of Amanda's WFMU fame?
  4:30pm
Parq:

Gang, not to take any audience away from SSD at UCB, but Loudon Wainwright and a couple of his relatives are doing a free gig in Mad Sq Park, NYC, at 6 tonight.
  4:31pm
Ike:

I am with Lizardner Dave and ? on this one. That Extreme song was extreme bison dung by extremely meatheaded doofuses.
  4:31pm
Dave B:

@ Happy Listener - Jerserf definitely is aware
  4:32pm
Lizardner Dave:

Lane and RSM's "What Do I Do With The Rest Of My Life" is pure pop genius and a pretty funny youtube video too.
  4:44pm
V:

Real radio here.
  4:45pm
Joe Bacon:

Must...Have...More...Amanda...
  4:45pm
John:

OMG! This (Amanda) is the greatest thing I've heard in years!
  4:46pm
John:

I'd love to hear Miley cover this.
  4:47pm
Joe Bacon:

I believe that Amanda is the 21st century answer to Jobriath
  4:47pm
Amanda Fan Club:

She topped herself this time
  4:47pm
Lizardner Dave:

I hope the RIAA finds Amanda.
  4:48pm
Happy Listener:

Amanda's singing really reminds me of "Lady Sniff" by Butthole Surfers
  4:49pm
Jerserf:

hey ya'll! :) THANK YOU!!!
  4:50pm
Jerserf:

Just walking in the door from Alabamy, visiting my sis... i showed her this page and all of the archived shows, she was really in awe of the attention
  4:51pm
Marshall Stacks:

@Joe Bacon :
I'll bite.

Jobriath is to David Bowie as Amanda is to ...?
  4:52pm
Jerserf:

Hey Irwin, she's coming to visit me in NY next month... maybe we could take the train down and I could introduce you ;) hehehe
  4:52pm
Happy Listener:

@MStacks: Tina Turner
  4:53pm
Joe Bacon:

Marshall, I can still remember when Jobriath was compared to a "?" too!
  4:54pm
Amanda Fan Club:

Irwin you MUST meet her you lucky dude
  4:55pm
Idea Man:

"Win a date with Amanda" fundraiser!!!
  4:55pm
Marshall Stacks:

Don't ask, don't tell.
  4:56pm
Lizardner Dave:

Signed Amanda CD-Rs = killer marathon premium.
  4:58pm
Happy Listener:

Don't care, can't tell.
  4:58pm
John:

Great idea'r Liz Dave! I'd give plenty o' ducats to my fave rave playing station for that!
  4:58pm
Bad Ronald:

I vote for an Amanda Cookie party!!!
  4:59pm
Jerserf:

your show is swingin' today,Irwin.
  5:12pm
G:

Amanda -- Latin for "she who must be loved"

nuff said.
  5:12pm
still b/p:

What's the WFMU equivalent of the Hasty Pudding Club's Woman of the Year -- Woof of the Mu?
  5:15pm
texas scott:

Hasty Moo of the WOOF WOOF,b/p
  5:20pm
Bad Ronald:

Didn't know there was a Baseball Calypso genre. Got any Hockey Klezmer Irwin?
  5:22pm
still b/p:

Fooey of the Munth: Just found out the Sir Richard Bishop, Oaxacan, and Big Blood show I thought I'd be seeing in a few hours is cancelled! If Amanda exists and is divine and all-powerful, how could she allow such pain in the world?
  5:24pm
Bad Ronald:

Have a cookie and let the healing begin...
  5:26pm
still b/p:

"..and therefore never send to ask for whom the cookie tolls; it toll-houses for thee."
  5:28pm
Bad Ronald:

Ha - Indeed!
  5:30pm
texas scott:

you have a way with words,b/p.
  5:40pm
texas scott:

is Radiohead one of those groups everyone hates because they're popular or just pretentious?
  5:41pm
Spencer:

My experience is that everyone loves Radiohead.
  5:43pm
texas scott:

including myself,Spence.Isn't it really about the sound?
  5:44pm
Dear RIAA,:

Try checking my mandatory labels column. See how much interesting music I can play that's not commercially available, or comes from shoestring independent labels? I'm talking to you, Bertelsmann. Are we communicating?
  5:46pm
texas scott:

Amanda's timing is impeccable! I hope the RIAA finds her.
  5:46pm
Bad Ronald:

"Plastered" - Sheer Bloody Poetry!!!
  5:53pm
Marshall Stacks:

Water Song - nice, Irwin.
  5:55pm
Laura L:

It is a nice song. Thanks, Irwin!
  5:56pm
ginger tim:

It's nice but it do go on a bit, don' it?!
  5:58pm
Rob:

  5:58pm
ginger tim:

Hey, remember Monkeypiece Theatre? I'm thinking: Amanda-piece Theatre.
