Hello, chat!!!

Hey Jon!

Brian!

Hehe I don't think I've ever had a show that wasn't before you?? (other than one off subs) #blessed

Wish I'd made a list of all the excellent shows that aired before mine on Wednesdays. Yourself, Rhythm of the One, Josh & Wheelhouse, DJ Hi-Res, Wilbo on and on...

WPRB should have an archivist

When Czarface says "so much force I'm like Yoda's twin" does that mean he's referencing Yaddle...?!

friendship is so good

Dan's songs really stick with me.

Like Neu Hallo Gallo goes stoner rock

I can hear that.

I can't lie, I haven't checked this out before because their name. But this Terry Gross rules.

I fully expect them to have to change their name. But this debut rules.

Yeah, I think it was in a Thrill Jockey email - just kept scrolling. But will dig into this for sure.

loving this, interesting shift in the middle there

I can't keep up with everything TJ puts out (there is a lot of it!) but I enjoyed one member's prior band/s and it was only three songs so I am glad I gave it a go...

I would like to second the motion that this does indeed rule.

Actually I guess I thirded it.

Motion granted.

Their band photo is also pretty ridiculous.

I can't decide what decade that was inspired by.

The future.

Touche.

Homeade chili and cornbread

Excellent. Leftover Super Bowl chili / mac & cheese / guac / lemon pasta on deck, I expect.

Ride those riffs.

I had chili and cornbread, too, Bri. Great tunes, Jon!

Abbie From Mars' album (which I'm playing a track off of now) is a "name your price" download here - https://abbiefrommars.bandcamp.com/album/quick-universe-leap

our own abbie!

Yeah, their record is cool. This track in particular.

"I think the radio is falling over, daddy."

HAHA! The fuzz stew is thick with this one...

My wife says this music is perfect for crushing the rest of the bag of tortilla chips

I like it!

Like a giant holding a.... small crushable thing hopefully not containing live things

Sadly, we are now out of tortilla chips. But the sentiment stands.

struggling to find the words to describe how that fuzz cement made me feel

brb gonna go listen to the rest of the album

It is certainly dense.

Eggs-cellent show!

Wish I had some Eggs on the playlist!

Better get scramblin'! Bantha Rider gets multigenerational approval.

The cover art for the Bantha Rider record is something else.

Now i know why abbie is not making radio she is making music!

I think they're doing both! Which is all the more admirable.

One of the more whimsical people i have ever met

Shes gonna go far!

Indeed.

By fhe way hi Jon and 🍝for dinner 😎

Hello and excellent. All the Super Bowl leftovers have been decimated here at Ice Station Solomon.

Decimated like tom brady coming off that boat today

I did not see that yet, only heard about it.

Hey Jon! Hey chat roomies! I see I missed Abbie From Mars...

CD! You can grab Abbie's whole record and listen to it anytime.

There's a link in the chat.

Thanks. I'm checking it out!

Excellent.

Pup!

Wrong show!

Poor memory...

Such a glorious racket for two people! They remind me of Dead Moon/Pierced Arrows at times.

Well put. I really can't stress how nice that band is. Every time they came through after playing on my show they would text me to make sure I knew about it and to invite me to be their guest.

Nice! This set (and other live ones) would occasionally pop up in the wee hours when studio robots were mostly in charge this summer!

Oh that's right! I dumped every live session in my possession into automation back in March.

Sheesh, where did the time go? Mike L is up at the top of the hour and I look forward to hanging in his chat for a spell as well...

Thx jon!

See you after the refresh.
