Attack of the killer white labels

Captain Richie's Bicycle

This soaked episode came about on Saturday, May 3, 2008, at 2200 UTC on WBCQ 7.415 and 5.110 MHz. There's more than enough conceptual contunuity for you here, including yard sale vinyl, a Link Wray cover, and poor ol' Blue Boy got busted again on the radio.

Lumpy Weiner Worldwide

Once again, we took the reigns of Allan Weiner's weekly radio show and morphed it into something rather different that what it normally is. We discussed the Voice of Freedom Radio, some high points on the WBCQ schedule, modulating oscillator circuits, played some Allman Brothers jams featuring "My Favorite Things," and took some phone calls. This happened live on Friday, May 2, 2008 (Saturday 0000 UTC) on WBCQ 7.415, 5.110, and 17.495. Allan and Jennifer are attending the Nearfest in Deerfield, New Hampshire.

• Allman Brothers Band - My Favorite Things jam - Gatlinburg, Tennessee, 1971 ("recorded in a ski lodge")

[213]

Demo madness

This show happened at 2300 UTC on Friday, May 2, 2008, on WBCQ 7.415, 5.110 and 17.495 MHz, as we sat in for Jennifer on our first Friday night show in a while. Allan called in from the Nearfest, Richie called from Pennsylvania, and a fun time was had by all. Earlier this evening, Brad did a nice 75 minute Grits Radio on Area 51 to warm us up.

• Tommy Tutone - 867-5309
• Thank God It's Friday
• Everlast - What It's Like

[212]

I'm not the Captain

This one went off about 0136 or so on WBCQ 7.415 MHz, following Brad's first ever RNI Grits Radio Show. This is our first 90 minute show. Except for the intro, we spent no time at all prepping for this. Our live phone patch aircheck to WBCQ was excellent from when Brad went on at 0000 UTC until about 30 minutes into our Lumpy part, when the shortwave signal took a dive and went long. StaticJunkie reported we were being heard in the UK pretty good for the first 2 hours or so. Despite the earlier jamba, and the inability to take live fone calls, this was a lot of fun. We greatly enjoy filling in for John Lightning and RNI.

This setlist is a little bit out of order and is incomplete. I'll get around shortly to cleaning it up. -- Lw

Upcoming broadcasts

I won a pair of tickets for tonight's Orioles/Yankees game so Grits Radio will assume the Lumpy slot today (Saturday, April 19) from 5-7PM on 5110 and 7415 (Liquid Radio is on hiatus).

Grits Radio will be on from 8 to 10pm, and we will cover 10pm to midnight on 7415.

Slopbucket eliminator, the way I feel

There's lots of live vinyl in this one; for the first time we ran some selections directly off the turntable. We had to feed WBCQ by telephone today, but conditions were excellent on 7415. 5110 is starting to get a bit noisy at this time, but we could copy it good here as well. This went out live on Saturday, April 12, 2008, at 2200 UTC, on WBCQ 7.415 and 5.110 MHz.

Lumpy studio

These photos are from our studio and were taken during last weekend's all-Zappa Lumpy Gravy Radio Show. Jane is bewildered, indeed.

Did we mention that we're renovating our studio?

Jane greets our valued shortwave listeners who checked in via e-mail.

An encounter with cosmikdebris, the host of the show.

Jane longs for a return to space.

Zappa Head

Back before we did a show for WBCQ, I did a handful of shows for Dr. Becker's FM station in Kiowa that featured Zappa's material. Four years later we've come full circle. Here's a mix that we pushed forth onto the airwaves at 2200 UTC on Saturday, March 15, 2008, on WBCQ 7.415 and 5.110 MHz.

After hours, we discovered that Brad has a better sounding and more complete soundboard recording of the Fillmore West concert where our feature "Call Any Vegetable" originated from. It is one of my all time favorite Zappa shows, and the original "tape that Jane used to use to annoy the neighbors." When we get a copy of Brad's tape we'll post it here for you, and maybe we'll air it on Area 51 someday soon.

Jim E. Night's Paranoia Pills

This show happened at 2300 UTC on Saturday, February 2, 2008 live on WBCQ 5.110 and 7.415 MHz. Conditions are slowly improving, and we got out far and wide once again, although 7.415 is still skipping long at this time of day.

Good conditions on shortwave early in the Area 51 block with Liquid Radio at 2200, but both 5110 and 7415 were fading out and soon gone by the time Lumpy Gravy came on.

Relax and float downstream

Our second live hour quickly turned into a free form exploitation of WBCQ 5.110 MHz on Sunday, January 6, 2008 at 0000 UTC.

Jane 32 and a song

Allan asked if we would like to do another impromptu, spur of the moment broadcast this evening as a pinch hit for Jennifer's 867-5309, and we were happy to accommodate him. Sadly, conditions were poor tonight here. 5110 was good for the first half of Area 51, from 2200 to about 2300, then it was covered with noise and faded away. I could hear World of Radio in upper side band at 2335 check. 7415 was gone all evening, until it started to come in above the noise about 0055.

At 2300 we picked up WBCQ 7415 in addition to 5110 for the second hour of Area 51, our fourth annual acid-soaked Lumpy Gravy Christmas show. Good to mixed reception on 5110 and 7415, with 5110 steady here with long deep fades, and 7415 slowly disappearing into the noise as the hour progressed.

Radio Jamba International Fall Tour

Vacation time is rapidly approaching. It's been a long time coming this year. We're doing a New England Tour, and are planning to visit various places, have a lot of fun, and get on the air on WBCQ. Here is a tentative itenary of our planned appearances on live on-air broadcasts.

• Fri 10/5 7pm ET 2300 UTC 867-5309 at Monticello
• Fri 10/5 8pm ET 0000 UTC Allan Weiner Worldwide at Monticello

• Sun 10/14 11pm ET 0300 UTC Hour of Slack at Grits Radio studio

We are going to visit the Yard and do some shows from our radio ship, the M/S Katie, but they will likely be recorded for future exploitation and not aired live, but who knows? If we can swipe internet access we may get on air from the boat.

Give It To Me (Poofy 32)

Tonight's turgid episode was broadcast live at 2200 UTC on WBCQ 7.415 MHz worldwide international shortwave, and on the net at the usual places. Spotty reception resulting from solar activity today.
