WFMU: Blurred and Obscured with Jonathan Herweg: Playlist from December 28, 2018

Listener comments!
	12:06am P-90: Evening, Jherweg. Thanks for keeping Nick’s seat warm tonight, looking forward to this.
	🎙 12:07am Jherweg: Hey thanks , glad to be here ... 12 hours of Blurred and Obscured in one week!!
	🎙 12:28am Jherweg: Zzzzzzzzzzz everyone is asleep!
	12:34am ike: I’m awake... for a few more minutes. Still haven’t yet caught up on your archives from Tuesday morning and night! They’re next on the list....
	12:37am Dean: Not asleep. Okay, I'll chime in. The Boyd Rice reminded me of a once-in-a-lifetime show at Kelbo's, a now defunct Polynesian restaurant in LA on Pico Blvd., early '80s, where NON performed, unbeknownst to the proprietors of the venue. The cover was a "surf party" featuring music by Annette Funicello, Beach Boys, etc., and a buffet of barbecued ribs and so forth. At some point, the hosts closed the door to the dining room, wedging a chair under the knob. NON proceeded to perform the most ear-shredding hash I'd heard in some time, then or since. When asked to deliver an encore, Rice could only mutter that he'd broken his gear.
	12:38am Scuttle: Always love your show
	12:38am old ERIC thee hat: Good to hear you always.
	12:38am fleep: You can never have too much blur.
	12:38am GListener MW: I've loved all the extra B&O this week -- thanks for all the fill-ins!!!
	12:38am Drake Woodall: hey, im out here.
	12:42am Art: Hola
	🎙 12:44am Jherweg: Hola Art! Yes I’m not alone out here in radioland !
	12:45am Dean: Among my favorites from 2018: matthew swiezynski's the one who modifies Time and Light, among the last of his label's releases before folding up.
	12:46am Scraps: I’m listening. I’m mostly lying down when listening to WFMU, and not participating to comments, because I’m usually in pain (sorry, but it’s true). Anyway, I’m always up for more Blurred & Obscured. p.s.: Boyd Rice sux.
	12:48am JakeGould: Hey Jonathan! Great work on the fill-ins.
	12:49am JakeGould: Anyone here see the Con Ed explosion light.
	12:55am Pete in MKE: Listening via the WFMU app in Milwaukee. Bought my daughter the stations tee as a gift for Xmas. She recently moved to Brooklyn & is a new fan. Free form forever!! Really.
	🎙 12:58am Jherweg: The App is great Pete , it’s how I mostly listen to WFMU myself..
	1:02am David Colangelo: Sounds like Jason Stein...you have the best music...
	1:04am Dean: That had to be bass clarinet.
	1:05am JakeGould: ‪“There is no Dana. Only Zuul.”‬
	1:09am A Cee: Saw the light in the sky! I got a pic from my apartment, how can I send it to you?
	1:10am JakeGould: Here! Look. https://twitter.com/valtheofanis/status/1078487879981191168?s=21
	🎙 1:10am Jherweg: I love this track so much!!
	1:12am rw: Jherweg! It's like you have your own radio station. They should let you take over more often!
	1:13am Dean: Steve Hillage: "Oh me, oh my! There's a light in the sky!"
	🎙 1:13am Jherweg: I don’t need to take over , just a weekly slot would be fine .
	1:14am rw: I do miss your weekly. Is there someone we could pester?
	1:15am tuner fish: great set!
	🎙 1:16am Jherweg: I don’t think pestering works, in fact I think it’s counterproductive.
	1:16am Zetti: evening.
	🎙 1:16am Jherweg: Thanks tuner !
	🎙 1:17am Jherweg: Hey Zetti!
	1:22am rw: Well, I hope you get some holiday fill-in credit then. Thanks for manning the controls.
	🎙 1:24am Jherweg: This week has been a blast ... I could keep going honestly ...
	1:27am JakeGould: More cool explosion video. Commentary at 0:32 seconds in is the best. https://twitter.com/nationalpurview/status/1078478911170928641?s=21
	1:28am Adam West Coaster: Venom is At War with Satan!
	1:29am Adam West Coaster: ...Or, so I hear.
	1:30am JakeGould: Vader threw the Emperor into the Newton Creek digesters after realizing he loves his son Luke more than being Space Hitler.
	1:33am Adam West Coaster: I did a 1-4 AM radio show for a few years, and absolutely loved the stillness of the station during those hours!
	1:34am Dean: Great early hours radio programming: Richard Meltzer's Hepcats from Hell on LA's KPFK. His delivery oozed the absence of street life.
	1:35am ignatatus666: Boycott Times Square Go to Peekskill NY or White Plains NY They both have a ball drop
	1:35am Dean: Meltzer used to play long tracks to afford time to go potty.
	1:36am ignatatus666: Adam Westcoaster Welcome to Hell

	1:44am ignatatus666: Adam Westcoaster that was a Venom reference
	1:47am Fashion Tashjian: Good morning from Yerevan, folks.
	1:48am Adam West Coaster: @666, I had looked right past that bit, when reminiscing about all of the band’s multitudinous references to one “fallen man.” Hahaha!
	1:51am BEAVO: JH, you must getvback on the schedule next year! Listened to your very first show on the archive last night, lotta fun! Keep it coming.

	🎙 1:52am Jherweg: Ha ha I’m afraid to go back and listen to my very first show ...
	1:53am BEAVO: Well that’s real fancy I’m down here in Georgia Georgia in the USA of that is!
	1:53am BEAVO: Yes I hate trump

	1:55am BEAVO: Way
	1:56am BEAVO: Yes I was splitting hairs
	1:57am BEAVO: Death by 1000 cuts in 2019
	🎙 1:57am Jherweg: That’s still way too fucking high.
	1:57am BEAVO: But I digress it’s about the music keep it coming!
	1:59am Dean: 1) That's an approval rating, not a "he's great" rating. 2) Much of what is abhorrent about the guy is his high-school-ish jerk-off personality. 3) Withdrawal from Afghanistan? Not bad. Not bad at all.
	2:02am Adam West Coaster: @Jherweg, these shows have been so wonderful!!
	2:19am fred: Hello Jonathan, nice to catch the end again

	2:32am slugluv1313: hello again, Jonathan! great to be hearing you again! @ scraps --- oh no -- i hope somehow you feel better and are NOT in pain so much . . . and i totally agree re: Boyd Rice -- sure, i still have the NON stuff from waaaay back when i was in college (late 1970s to early 1980s) . . . and i totally LOVED all that "noise" . . . then some years later i learned more about Boyd Rice and his "philosophy" and was/still am thoroughly disgusted
	2:34am katharsis: Thanks again
	2:35am ignatatus666: Auction off the CDs for the station
	2:43am Zetti: Thanks for all the fill-ins Jonathan.
	2:47am rw: Jherweg, I had nowhere near 4000 CDs but put mine in three piles. One pile to give away, one pile to keep, and one pile to keep just the discs and the paper inserts which I put in sleeves. Saved a lot of space.

I always listen in the daytime from the archives while at work and I've really enjoyed your stories, humour, montages, and selections. Really hoping you make a regular return one day but it's been great binging on the shows from your xmas marathon. All the best to you & cheers from Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island!

An underground journey through the history of psychedelic rock, modern music, shimmering noise, free jazz, punk, funk, children's records played at the wrong speed, tape cut-up, static, the composition of decomposition, and subversive spoken word.
