We interrupt the printing of boarding passes to Barcelona to share a photo sent to us by David.  He’s not specific about when this was taken, so we can only hope that it was at last night’s stirring 8-0 triumph over the Phillies.  Nice to know that misspellings aren’t the sole province of rock club marquees, but then again not so surprising.  After all, this is an organization that thinks Queens is one of the five boroughs of New York Citi.

And don’t think I wasn’t tempted to use this picture again.

Check out this great interview from the Old Style Guitar Shop with the great Gil Divine, guitar tech extraordinaire.

Thanks to everyone who joined in the hysteria last Friday night as Georgia, James, Bruce and I took to the airwaves to grapple with your requests in return for donations of your hard-earned $$ to WFMU. And I do mean everyone. There were more pledges coming through than we could compute – it’s only now that I’m realizing how many we never acknowledged at all, not even in the empty-the-bench closing medley of “Sex Bomb.” With that in mind, we want to send our regrets to Andrew in Brooklyn,  Conor in D.C., Bean Bag Amerika in Brooklyn, Laurie in Chapel Hill, Ann in Flushing, Daniel in Flushing, John and Becky in Greenwich, Ann and Evan in Providence, Stephen in West Chester – this is getting to be like the end of Romper Room – Stephen in Canada, Chris in Madison, Ben in NYC, and Arlene in Jersey City for overlooking their suggestions. But we want to send out our most profuse apologies to everyone whose request we did take and the resultant bloodshed. And I do mean bloodshed. Even before the night was over, revisionism had set in, positing that my index finger started gushing blood during “TV Eye.” But I’m here to tell you it happened during our incendiary take on “Second Hand News.” Thanks again to one and all. Keep supporting WFMU.
