Nicely!Pappawas1975 - 19-10-2005 at 09:37
Just put my flimsy, pretty crappy website for the show up here - www.angelfire.com/music7/was747 ....It does the job, no need to go overboard. Have linked the goose on the links page, for what its worth!Puptent - 7-11-2005 at 17:07
Are these shows archived on the internet somewhere? That would be cool, I'm often not at home on Saturdays.BBP - 7-11-2005 at 20:19
Great show, Gojira! Keep up the good work!Pappawas1975 - 7-11-2005 at 20:25
Thanks BB! Archival will happen soon, the station goes FM in the new year too, but will letcha know! Zappa Memorial 2 Hour special on the 3rd December
too!!!!BBP - 7-11-2005 at 20:28
Wow, a Zappa memorial? I'll be listening!Pappawas1975 - 7-11-2005 at 21:13
Dunno how Im gonna do it yet, but itll be a little of all aspects of his work, right across the board, with less chat than normal to fit in more
music!BBP - 14-11-2005 at 13:26
Before I forget: That 10-Midnight in your sig, does that refer to UK-time?Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 17:24
Yes it does, soryy...will modify that now....!BBP - 14-11-2005 at 17:57
Thanks... In my stupidity I forgot that you guys live an hour earlier, so I started listening to your radio at 10. After six minutes of Beastie Boys,
some wailing came. I switched off the radio... and the PC jams. Blargh.
...I always have that when I want to see something on BBC. Just today I missed out on Pinky and the Brain.Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 17:59
If it was 10 your time, then it was 11 here, so that wouldve been my show I guess! I modified my signature though, thanks for letting me know...Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 17:59
No, sorry, 9 here....my bad...BBP - 14-11-2005 at 18:04
That's it! You've found the crux!Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 18:09
Indeed I have...Dutch time Im ok with, its just some other countires takes me a while to work the difference out....That and currency
conversions.....!!!!!BBP - 14-11-2005 at 18:11
Ah! Yes! I have that in British TV-shows with pounds... and dollars. Though the Euro has made things easier.Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 18:16
It has made things easier, but I still kinda like the fact that we still have our own money over here....Pain in the ass whilst in other countries,
but hey, thats rocknroll...BBP - 14-11-2005 at 18:19
...I do miss our guilders... Especially our bank notes which had poetry on them...Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 18:21
I remember guilders!!!...I still think Euros look like kids play fake money....Puptent - 14-11-2005 at 18:22
Yeah, Euro bills look like Monopoly money and they also deteriorate very quickly. Most 5 Euro bills already look like've been in circulation for
20 years.Pappawas1975 - 14-11-2005 at 18:29
They feel funny too, think thats why they appear fake.......BBP - 14-11-2005 at 18:33
Plus they only say "euro" in Latin and cyrillic...Not even a signature from Trichet.
I also dislike the different sizes: 5 euro notes are so tiny they always get lost in my wallet.Pappawas1975 - 23-11-2005 at 11:34
Have just put together the first Zappa show, to be aired on Sat, Dec. 3rd....i realised there is no way I can fit all I want into two hours, so am
doing a Phaze II for the following week also now.....BBP - 23-11-2005 at 13:18
Wow! Great news!
...but what does your boss say?Pappawas1975 - 23-11-2005 at 13:19
I have no boss as such..... Freedom in music is what its all about!!!BBP - 23-11-2005 at 13:30
You're one lucky man!
Will you be playing Ya Hozna?Pappawas1975 - 23-11-2005 at 13:31
If thats a request, then yes I will!....Wont be on Dec 3rd though, itll have to be on Dec 10th show....BBP - 23-11-2005 at 13:33
Thanks!!!
How about a kissing smiley, James?Pappawas1975 - 23-11-2005 at 13:36
Ha!....Dont, youll embarass me!Puptent - 26-11-2005 at 23:24
Yo, is it on tonight?Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:24
Its on now dawg!( shameless self promotion! )Puptent - 26-11-2005 at 23:25
Great, I'm tuning in.Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:28
Cool man, I appreciate it.Puptent - 26-11-2005 at 23:33
Pretty eclectic mix so far, I like that. Heard PE when I tuned in. Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:37
I do try to keep it pretty mixed up......There is a Zappa track tonight too, as a "prelude" to the tribute next week.....BBP - 26-11-2005 at 23:38
Mmm, Zappa... :drool:
[Edited on 26-11-2005 by BBP]Puptent - 26-11-2005 at 23:43
This is a cool track, sounds somewhat inspired by the AEC or Sun Ra.Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:46
You mean the Chris Brown one?...yeah, thats great shit.....You missed Sun Ra earlier tonight Pup coincidentally!BBP - 26-11-2005 at 23:48
Will you put up a play-list somewhere afterwards? Then I don't have to ask you what's on all the time...Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:51
Yeah, itll be up on the website after the show!BBP - 26-11-2005 at 23:51
Thanks!Pappawas1975 - 26-11-2005 at 23:57
No problem! I bundle my way through HTML to put up all the playlists!Puptent - 27-11-2005 at 00:05
Really enjoying the show so far. You gotta love a program where you can hear hiphop, extreme metal, avantgarde stuff and KISS within the same hour.Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:06
Ha!Cool man, glad you are....Thats how I got the gig, totally cutting shit up and playing whatever the fuck I wanted....!!!BBP - 27-11-2005 at 00:15
Great! I bet it beats doing newspaper rounds... though even that has its charm.Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:17
I guess so!!BBP - 27-11-2005 at 00:18
Alien Orifice! Superb!BBP - 27-11-2005 at 00:20

Last summer, part of my round was blocked by a bunch of police officers... they'd found a corpse there...Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:20
It was a toss up between this and Baltimore, and well, this won.....BBP - 27-11-2005 at 00:23
I'm learning to play Baltimore right now on piano, it's really very hard.Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:25
I bet it is.....I really dont think I could play it on any instrument. Well, maybe drums, but some of the drum parts are ridiculously intricte, Id
have to improvise a little......!!!!!Puptent - 27-11-2005 at 00:29
Coltrane! Awesome... this track is killer. Ole Coltrane.Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:30
Yes man......Quality.....Gotta fly now man, thanks for listening though!!! No doubt see you on here again mate....Puptent - 27-11-2005 at 00:31
Later! Thanks for an enjoyable show.Pappawas1975 - 27-11-2005 at 00:32
No thank You!...Rock on man...Pappawas1975 - 2-12-2005 at 20:45
Enjoy the shows if you listen anyway, I cant be online those nights Im afraid, so enjoy......BBP - 3-12-2005 at 23:24
Shame you're not around, Gojira... I'm really enjoying your show...
Now playing: "What will this evening bring me this morning?"Pappawas1975 - 4-12-2005 at 16:36
Glad you dug it BB....next weeks should be enjoyable too....!Thanks for your support!BBP - 4-12-2005 at 16:50
Darn! Just missed out on you!
Can't wait 'till next week...Pappawas1975 - 4-12-2005 at 17:02
Ha! Sorry......Will have Ya Hozna on for ya anyway...!!!BBP - 4-12-2005 at 18:16
Thank you! You rock!:drums:scallopino - 5-12-2005 at 03:55
OK, if its 10pm on the 10th of december in the UK, and Melbourne time is "8 to 9" hours ahead of UK time, and its currently daylight savings
in Melbourne, so that would seem to be the 9 hours ahead situation, so I guess that makes it 7am on the 11th of December?Pappawas1975 - 5-12-2005 at 12:36
Err.....not too sure Scal, but youd know more about the time differences than I, so Id say you are correct?scallopino - 5-12-2005 at 15:10

I guess there's only one way to find out. See you at seven! :bald: Btw, when should one use the "bald" smiley? Has it ever come up?scallopino - 5-12-2005 at 15:11

As a reaction when someone asks what a "slaphead" is? :bald:Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:07
Cant get a fucking connection to listen to my own shit man, computers really piss me off sometimes.....BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:13
Me neither, now of all times... :crying:
When are those archives up Goj?Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:21
Dunno BB......Typical isnt it? Bloody computers!....Will just put this weeks show on next week....BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:28
Thanks!Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:32
I can only apologise on the studios behalf, but isnt it just typical?BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:36
It is, it is. Some five years ago, before I got into FZ, I had the unique opportunity to play three of my favourite songs on the radio.
Unfortunately those songs could not last longer than 4 minutes, and with one song per performer, I ended up playing DVDA's "What would Brian
Boitano do?", along with Drs. P (Dutch brilliant lyricist) and Primus's Jerry.
During Primus, something went wrong with transmission, causing a one-minute gap in Jerry. Bleh.Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:38
I feel for ya sister....Shit like this happens Im afraid! Ive just tried out a couple more internet radio stations on my Pc, and they work fine, so
its definitely a problem with the ICR server....BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:40
It is... I wonder what's wrong...Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:42
God knows. I mailed them and called them, but to no avail.BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:46
Oh well... if you'll be putting that show up next week... I'm planning to go upstairs and see if I can find Lumpy Gravy.
[Edited on 10-12-2005 by BBP]Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:50
Good call BB....BBP - 10-12-2005 at 23:54
Or CP3? Problem is, I have a shared computer, and leaving the PC means surrendering it around here...Pappawas1975 - 10-12-2005 at 23:56
Pay a family member to retrieve the disc of your choice for you?BBP - 11-12-2005 at 00:04
Good idea!Pappawas1975 - 11-12-2005 at 00:05
Payment or birbery, always works. And, when it comes time to pay them, deny all knowledge and say " We didnt shake on it, it doesnt count
"....never fails....BBP - 11-12-2005 at 00:13
Ha! :devil:
where's my dictionary... birbery... birbery...Pappawas1975 - 12-12-2005 at 17:26
Ok, BRIBERY! ( if thats spelt right? )....You know what I mean! Apparently there was a power surge, which threw everything out and it didnt get fixed
up until Sunday afternoon, hence ICR being offline. Nonetheless, hopefully next week it shall air without hitch.....BBP - 12-12-2005 at 18:13
Just teasing you... I'll be keeping my fingers crossed... hope ICR will work next time...Pappawas1975 - 13-12-2005 at 12:51
It should do! Thanks!Puptent - 17-12-2005 at 21:48
I guess part 2 of the FZ tribute show is on tonight then, eh? That's nice, I can listen and drink a few beers then. Pappawas1975 - 17-12-2005 at 21:52
Yes it is my friend, will be glad to have your company, as I am doing exactly the same thing......One beer down, seven more to go! Hope you dig.
Heilige!Puptent - 17-12-2005 at 22:58
Ah, there we go! Puptent - 17-12-2005 at 23:41
Great selection of stuff up 'til now. Really enjoying it. BBP - 17-12-2005 at 23:43
Me too! Thanks Goj!
...problem is, my dad is getting annoyed...Pappawas1975 - 17-12-2005 at 23:44
Thanks guys....tell your dad to grab a beer and sit down with us....BBP - 17-12-2005 at 23:45
He doesn't drink really. Me neither.Puptent - 17-12-2005 at 23:47
Whoah, did you hear that, BBP? BBP - 17-12-2005 at 23:49
Yay! Thanks Gojira!
First thing I'll do when I'll run this place is install a kiss-smiley.Pappawas1975 - 17-12-2005 at 23:55
Coolio, sounds good to me! You definitely gonna take over then?BBP - 17-12-2005 at 23:58
Probably... though the feduciary side is going to be a problem, I fear, being a musicology student... Perhaps I could make a job out of building
web-sites.Pappawas1975 - 18-12-2005 at 00:00
Well, its good work if you can get it! good money, and there always seems to be work out there for people who can do that kinda thing....
