Greetings and Salutations

Hello, DJ DaveTheObscure

`ᵷui̩uɹoɯ poo⅁

𐁕𐌓 ᮋ₳𖼘𐐣𐤈ꛘ₮ⵟᜬ𐠙

I'll be featuring music by Roger Trigaux this morning from 7:30 to 9:30 (EDT).

Good morning, Mr. obscure, Mr. M

It's the dude! Hello.

Good morning, Mr. the_dude

Excellent start to the show! Cheers, DJ DaveTheObscure!

I am glad you are enjoying the selections.

Always! I love all of prb, truly, but this is one of my favorite shows

Thanks, dude!

If only every track listing on every playlist for every show could include a list or picture of instruments used in the song. I should add this to my survey response.

Ah the thanks really goes to you! And Mr. M - you're one of my favorite chatters 🖤

You’ve gone too far this time, *Mr. the_dude*. Ha! 👻🖤💀

Mr. M, we will take that into consideration. 🪕 🎻 🎸🎷🎺🥁

Really been enjoying the Rypdal selections you've been playing

You're gonna need more emojis

Thanks, dude. Yes, Rypdal is one of my favorites - I have quite a lot of his work.

I can't find my bassoon emoji.

🎹🪗🪘🧱⚙️🪚🛢🔨💻📯🔔📢🐚⏰ 🧨

I like that Clearlight

Good morning, Brian D. Clearlight had some nice releases early on.

Ah I must have to update, not all those came thru for me me mr.m, I do have a conch she'll that blows like a horn though! It's a lot of fun

Ah, Mr. the_dude, I wonder which emoji are missing? I tried to add some “ФβᎦᏨЦЯᎧ” selections. Cheers!

Univers Zéro has been enjoyable too!!

Missing between 🎹 & 🧱 and between ⚙️&🛢.

I'm glad Univers Zero has not driven you away, Mr. M.

Accordion and long drum “conga” and hand saw emoji are missing for DaveTheObscure

Ha just checked chat on my samsung phone and they're all there, but wait, it's not a hand emoji for me it's a saw?

Right. I called it a “hand saw”, Mr. Carpenter

Oh right , sorry I can't always read, that's why I just listen to music all the time

Morning, all 🌄 is there a two-emoji minimum in the chat this morning?

We have definitely spent too much time on the emoji 🕺💃🦄🥨🍷🎱🗿💈🎀

As I see!

Hi, Christine Duffy! ☮️💟

Hello, MrM! 💀

Good morning, Christine.

Present can indeed be hard to stomach, especially in such large doses.

Present has a negative mood, so negative comments are to be expected.

It is not I, but the music of Present that has the negative influence.

You know me, I'm all sweetness and light!

Please note: MrM has [Comments Redacted] his own posts [Comments Redacted]

Omission Accomplished?

😄

Brilliant! @DJ DaveTheObscure!

🥃🥃

Breakfast of Champions. 🥃🥃

I always defined Breakfast of Champions as a pastry and a cup of really strong tea, but that's me.

Neither of those are correct! 😝

Lol put that one a banner and hang it up (omission accomplished) And the mood/atmosphere has been great, I was actually thinking you haven't done anything too heavy in a bit evad

And idk mr.m I'd say they all qualify

And idk is that breakfast for you mr.m, or a late evening night cap?

@the dude - I'm more than making up for the lack of heaviness today.

Mr. the_dude, sorry my sentence structure was weird and didn’t make sense to you! Regarding the saw emoji! Keep in mind, me is BoNkErS and I haven’t had any late evening snack or breakfast of champions. [Comments Redacted]

Definitely doing it today, not sure if I'm into univers zero or present more ...maybe present, really digging this track

And Mr.m haha idk I think it was me, early for me too, I probably need to sign up for Derrick zoolanders school for kids who can't read good

Univers Zero is more chamber rock, Present is more electrified.

See, this is a perfect example of why I love PRB and its community. Where else would people be listening to complex music like this at 8:48 in the morning, and goofing in the chat?

Ha! Some word combinations are always gonna be awkward. And vary in clarity depending the style of communication. Eventually, you will know in due time. #ChatGoofing

Delusions Of Deep Fried Grandeur

Lol only here Ms. Christine! And good one evad - All hail prb 🙌🙏🖤⛧⸸ ☠

Now I cannot see the emoji between 🖤 and ☠️

Must be too obscure, too powerful for your skeleton eyes!

Hail Seitan

Haha I love seitan!

My favorite way of hearing that will always be that scene from rosemary's baby

(and it was a pentagram Mr.m)

@Mr. the_dude, LOL! Now I want seitan wings

It looks like two emoji are missing. I need the pentagram emoji, darn it all to heck!

( And upside down cross) - which, is actually a very esteemed religious symbol and has very non satanic origins . Haha I love seitan wings! Where do you like to get them?

Ah well if it makes you feel better they're not in my keyboard list, I had to Google them, my secrets revealed

Those keys behind that ⚡🎸 , awesome

Thanks for the clarification!! 🔆

I haven't been out in forever, but I used to love the seitan wings at El Camino Realcin No. Liberties

*El Camino Real*

Thanks for the clarification! 🤪

I thought it was an east coast thing, “Realcin”.

Lol of course, glad I have some more time to chat this morning. And nice! That place is good, around that area too is circles thai, they have great 🍗 both seitan and 🐔, a great sauce

If you haven't done so already, please go to wprb.com/survey and fill out our questionaire.

I put in my survey I want a wprb listener chat pot luck!

I’m busy that day

Didn't you hear what your mother said?

Didn't You Hear What Your Mother Said?

Lol 🙉

DIDN'T YOU HEAR WHAT YOUR MOTHER SAID?

🙀

I’m scare

OMG, when is 9:30am over there?!? L0L

I tried to warn you. Didn't I?

Hang on, Mr. M! Some easy listening coming up at 9:38 EDT.

You did. I like some of these PRESENTS

😱😱😱 high anxiety...

𝔇𝔞𝔯𝔨𝔢𝔰𝔱 𝔖𝔥𝔬𝔴 𝔈𝔳𝔢𝔯 ☁

I shall endure. I’m relentless, if you didn’t know!

Lover the tension, could cut it with a🔪

Love*

Volume has been raised for some too 😈👿

DJ Dave the Obscure, you could change your name to DJ Vantablack.

Damn these are some really great tracks, sad to hear of Roger Trigeaux passing, a great tribute evad

Haha good one Christine

Wow this gives Fracture a run for its money!

True, true. I usually try to suppress my darker tendencies.

Blacker than the blackest black times infinity https://youtu.be/ec3wNNysg8A

Yes, Brian. Similar direction. But Present is largely overlooked.

And this has been the same track?!

17 minute track.

There's metal heavy and then there's prog heavy

Like if Stravinsky had a metal band.

Tried to hear what mom said dad but... threre's this 17 min odd time sig racket going on drowning her out. Beautiful racket. I def hear Stravinsky in a lot of today's offerings in the sets

So glad you have a longer show this season!

Any one a fan of sleepy time gorilla museum in here?

Great tone on the guit fiddle this guy

This set absorbs light

Love the way they are torturing that B3! Emerson & his knives would be proud

Lol, a sonic black hole 🌌 - and I've definitely heard that one riff outside this song..

Peter Gunn?

Obviously, all of us! @Mr. the_dude! 💤🕰🦍🏢

Ha close, but idk maybe I've just heard that song before and forgot. But haha right on mr.m! They just remind of this heavy prog vibe, I actually got to see them live, killer show

This was just right for this a.m. Really needed that expansion to the brain & eardrums . So interesting and they kept it interesting for me throughout the pieces

@ Brian - glad you appreciate the music.

@ the dude - I am jealous. Never got to see Present live. I don't get out much. 😞

Oh no not present, that woulda been awesome too, I meant sleepy time gorilla museum

Present is yet another band that I got to see live thanks to Nearfest. And Univers Zero!

And Nearfest was my first exposure to SGM as well.

Great Trigaux tribute, by the way!

I miss EVERYTHING! 😭

Sleepy time also has a heavy prog vibe, violin, homemade instruments (piano string bass)

Thanks to you, Bud, for passing on the news of his death. 🙏 Probably never would have heard otherwise.

@bud how was the NEARfest experience? I’ve really only learned about it fairly recently

It's sad how unknown Roger was in this country. I guess RIO in general is much better known in Europe.

@Mark NEARfest was a fantastic experience. I was never a particularly deep prog fan, but it introduced me to so many great bands.

Yes, Bud. Cuneiform tries to push it here, but distribution and exposure is not strong.

@Dave the Obscure, Last Stage of a Long Journey is a fitting choice for 9:45 am.

When did they end it ?

Thanks, Christine.

I’ve been reading some of deliberrto echoes reviews of various festivals including ones that included Present

2012 was the last. The organizers just didn't have the time and energy to keep it going.

thanks that what i figured :(

I was at all but 2 of them. I really miss it!

I think Lizbot was a NEARfest regular as well

hmmmm maybe a new grass efforts might be necessary/ yeah that was how i learned about it from ur chats w her !

Whoa nearfest sounds awesome!

DJ DaveTheObscure, I greatly appreciate the fine selections today and have learned from the one or two that made me drool and scratch! Sincerely, thank you! 🎶🎵🎼

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NEARfest

Very glad you were able to enjoy the music, Mr.M.

When I saw sgm it was in Doylestown at the moose lodge, kinda random lol, and not very well attended

I was at that SGM show, too. What a strange venue for them!

great tribute in true WPRB fashion:)

Hahaha really so cool! We almost know each other, yeah very random, easy to miss show

Thanks, Mark.

Ans great show today evad thank you as always

DJ DaveTheObscure, you and your shows are always TopNotch! Cheers!

Thanks, Dude.

Fantastic, as always, Dave! I realize I need to explore more of Present's huge catalog.

Thank you, DJ Dave 🙏

Cheers Dears! Be well! Stay happy!

Present's music is hard to find. Searches lead you to 'The Wedding Present", or anything else with 'presents...'.

Thanks for joining us, Christine, and Mr.M.

Thanks for listening, and participating in the chat. Stay tuned to ‘PRB for 🏃🚦Running Redlights with Jen.
