Beat me to it Cecile.

12:36pm Marty:

Hi Joe! Great meeting you @ the JD / Ribeye show Friday night! Still reeling!!!

12:37pm joe:

Joe is the long standing champ of Rock and Roll, but I'm challenging for that Mayor of Monty Hall title :)

12:39pm joe:

@Cecile Yes yes it is but don't tell anyone :)

12:41pm Cecile:

Got it. The secret dies with me.

12:41pm Joe B:

Current prize drawing is for the Allah-Las - Calico Review CD. The band’s 3rd LP exploring the reverbed vibes of Southern California psych rock ‘n’ roll

12:43pm Tim 07030:

Hi Joe! I think you just said on the air that it's $100+ to be eligible for Lou, but you wrote $180+ above

12:44pm Joe B:

thanks tim, fixed. good lookin out!

12:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

$180 is just $15 / month - which of course supports WFMU.

12:46pm Tim 07030:

You're welcome! Now please don't play "The Original Wrapper"

12:49pm Joe B:

also joining the current prize drawing is The Blind Shake - Celebrate Your Worth - LP. Minneapolis trio specializing in deconstructing garage rock and throwing their own backyard extraterrestrial surf-punk party

12:55pm Marty:

Joe's 2016 marathon, I think I wound up going out and buying 5 albums that were put for prizes. Looks like I'll be doing the same this year! LOVE IT!!!!!!

1:06pm Carmichael:

This is Lou Reed ... THIS is Lou Reed?!?

1:07pm Joe B:

Hardly anyone in the grand prize drawing so far! Lou Reed - The Complete RCA & Arista Album Collection. 17-CD Box Set! pledges of $100 or more at any time during the show until 3 pm are eligible for this drawing! mastered by Lou himself in his last project before he left us. THIS IS THE ONLY COPY WE GOT TO GIVE AWAY DURING THE ENTIRE MARATHON! THE STATION DOESN'T EVEN HAVE ONE!

1:14pm Listener Robert:

Just as I wrote a couple days ago that a great deal of the success of any business or fundraiser is a factor beyond their control -- the economy -- so too it is with the TIMING of the donations. Yes, I'm sure a good pitch by whoever's on air can help, but don't feel bad if it doesn't. It's largely about externally imposed rhythms like the business week.

1:16pm Listener Robert:

The main thing is that most donors like enough of the station as a whole that that's what they really think of themselves as donating to, which is the truth.

1:17pm Cecile:

the lyrics of this song feel like a "build your own Lou Reed song kit" not put in the correct order.

1:23pm Marcel M:

Big Ds... EYYYOOOOO!

1:23pm Marcel M:

@Bill Kelly: I also heard that. Apparently John's father scolded him after one of their first gigs because all the girls were talking to him.

1:25pm Greg from ZONE 5:

Star Tavern RULES.
And actually Sun Tavern ain't bad either.

1:25pm dug:

rutts hut. home of the ripper

1:30pm Marcel M:

I had a few bears in my yard in Northern Jersey!

1:30pm Joe B:

curent prize drawing is for Soggy - self-titled LP. The definitive collection from thsi French cult band. Formed in 1978, Soggy quickly developed a unique style of Stooges-infused punk and hard rock

1:32pm Tomophobic Tom:

It seems wrong for Bill Kelly not to get the entire fabulous Lou Reed box set.

1:33pm Michael Shelley:

As a huge fan of Joe Belock, both personally & professionally, I urge you to donate to this fine program. Joe's show is vital - he had great taste, great mic breaks and mines yet another part of the music spectrum to unearth music not heard on other fmu show, or anywhere!

1:39pm Uncle Michael:

Tommy Scott is a Joe Meek production, I *think*. Not sure...

1:46pm Listener Robert:

Yeah, Marcel, but with prices like yours, you're not likely to see many more of them.

1:47pm joe:

Here you go the Senators bass player telling a Phil Spector/Ramones style story during their time of working with the Joe Meeks. www.walesonline.co.uk...

1:48pm Uncle Michael:

Thanks Joe!

1:51pm Marcel M:

@Robert: Well now that I'm in Brooklyn I think I'll see 0.. due to real estate prices, of course.

1:52pm Listener Robert:

I recently moved from the Bronx to Sussex Co., but I helped friends move there in 1996 (just in time to take advantage of the 90.1 Mt. Hope station, newly acquired) and so have had the black bear experience.

55+ yrs. ago when we drove to our relatives' in Livingston, Daddy used to point out a "BEAR RIGHT" sign, and we'd duck. Didn't realize then that bears would become a thing in NJ.

1:54pm Marcel M:

Yeah there are a ton in Northern Jersey. They closed the Ramapo Reserve for a while because of it. Has that reopened yet?

1:54pm joe:

And doing sound in Monty Hall

1:55pm Marcel M:

Oh I'm seeing it has been reopened.

1:55pm Listener Robert:

Is Pyramid Mtn. Park part of the Ramapo Reserve? Too bad I'm not in condition to hike it now.

1:55pm Marcel M:

@Robert: I'm not sure.

1:57pm Andrew Waterloo:

I love Barrence, we chatted about WFMU the last time he played here in Waterloo.

1:58pm Listener Robert:

I'm hoping I can stomp to some tune played here to get my heart out of A fib, where it's been since Thurs. I should extend the offer I made Sat. to donate another amount equaling what I did last week if your rhythm succeeds in defibrillating me.

2:03pm Listener Robert:

I see they're different parks, Marcel, but on the same range, parallel to Routes 202 & 287.

2:06pm Michael 98145:

this is great

👻

2:08pm Ken From Hyde Park:

If Joe doesn't make his goal today, I'm pretty sure the consequences will be that he'll have to perform at Hoof 'n' Mouth while wearing a dress. Please pledge well so it doesn't come to that!

2:08pm Joe B:

Current prize drawing is for Ork Records: New York, New York: 2 CD set with a 190-page book! Visionary Terry Ork released the debut 45s by Television and Richard Hell, solo exploits by Big Star’s Alex Chilton and the dBs’ Chris Stamey, the first recordings from the feelies and much more! Ork Records: New York, New York is a visionary glimpse of punk and new wave as invented, nurtured, feted, and forgotten by the street-level

2:12pm Joe B:

ken you call that punishment? c'mon!

2:13pm fred:

@Ken: And the shortest he comes, the shortest the dress. Nobody wants that, so pledge people peldge

2:16pm Michael 98145:

time to haul out the hypno : blogfiles.wfmu.org...

2:21pm Marcel M:

I just watched Danny Says last night. It was great

2:25pm Parq:

Marcel, did you see it in a theater or on TV? If the later, who is running/streaming it?

2:26pm Marcel M:

Netflix! Though... you should pledge to get the DVD not watch it there.... heh...heh.... ;-)

2:27pm Parq:

Alternatively, some of you may want to pledge *because* you want to see Joe perform at HnM in a frock.

2:32pm Joe B:

current prize drawing is for Danny Says: A film by Brendan Toller. DVD of the amazing documentary on one of the founders of punk rock. Former WFMU DJ! Over 20 hours of extras on the DVD! extras include a promotional film with Nico and the Stooges and a conversation between danny and lou reed after lou heard the ramones for the first time in november of 1975, subject of our grand prize today!

2:44pm Bluesman:

If you're reading this Terre T.......HELLOOOOOOO TERRE T!!!!!

2:44pm Greg from ZONE 5:

OH NO.

2:45pm Greg from ZONE 5:

LOL "Pipe down, rookie!"

2:45pm Switchblade Batman:

You broke Todd's heart Joe, you broke his heart :(

2:47pm Switchblade Batman:

2:47pm Guido from Cologne:

2:54pm Bluesman:

Let's get David Jo and Archie Bell into the studio for a tag team!

👻

2:57pm Ken From Hyde Park:

Very nice ... reached the goal. We're safe!

2:58pm Tomophobic Tom:

I actually did not go the IBJ thing this year. I thought it would be more fun getting drunk before noon with Bill Kelly in a room full of loud strangers on St. Patricks day lets set the date.

2:58pm Tomophobic Tom:

This song is dead to me since I heard the Archie Bell version.
