22 SEPTEMBER 2005

Hurricane Sebastian is coming... Jonesy wanted to know why they are always birds. He thinks the next Hurricane should be Hurricane Steve, or Hurricane Jonesy.

Spear of Destiny, AGE OF UNREASON
Damned, PROBLEM CHILD
Kinks, THIS IS WHERE I BELONG
Great Glass Elevator, RAPID EYE MOVEMENT
Cockney Rebel, HIDEAWAY

The Duke: Nina's New Wave Nation

Jonesy is emotionally hung over today. Shovel wanted to know why and Jonesy told him some things were secret.

He played a Rolling Stones song. I missed a bit so I don't know if there was anything after that.

He just whistled GIMME SHELTER for some tickets to something.

The Duke: Robbins Bros, and Tower Records

Rolling Stones, GIMME SHELTER
Fleetwood Mac, OH WELL
Neil Young, THE NEEDLE
Frente, A New Order cover
David Bowie, LIFE ON MARS
Shudder to Think, HOT ONES
Red Walls, a special track that went all wiggy, and Jonesy said a manchiefrill had gotten all over it....hmmm....

The Duke: Nouvelle Vague is going to be at special FREE Indie concert at Lowe's Hotel in Santa Monica--ohh and they are opening for DCD

He was singing but I missed it... However, even without hearing it, I can assure you it was High Silliness from the Pontiff of Pop himself.

Replicants?????????,
TWO WAY ARMY ??????????
...Sounds of Africa, WILLIAM OBE OBE ??? (Groovy song)

Jonesy stands up for the people, watching out for the little people. "What about the workers!" He shouts.

He's going to whistle a masterpiece. It's The Monkees I'M NOT YOUR STEPPING STONE

He sang his Man who can to the Monkees, and now he's singing that MORE THAN A FEELING. For being knackered and having an emotional hang over he sure is full of silliness and energy today. I LOVE JONESY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOD SAVE JONESY!!!!!!!!!!!

20 SEPTEMBER 2005: DEAD MEN WALKING

I came in while they were talking about Daylight Savings Time.

Jonesy doesn't feel too great today and he might have "bird flu" hehehe...He's taking his ginger and wheatgrass.

He played a set but I missed most of it. Right now it's 12:35 and he is whistling to give away tickets to Madness tonight. It's that Sleepy Jean song by ?? Neil Diamond.

OH-- it was DAYDREAM BELIEVER!!! He is singing his "Pontiff of Pop" lyrics. Then he forgot the rest of it! I love Jonesy!

Monkees, DAYDREAM BELIEVER
?? , DOWN DOWN 
Johnny Winter, JUMPIN JACK FLASH

Dead Men Walking are in the studios with Jonesy. I have to miss a bit, but I will back.

Well, I blogged the whole last twenty minutes of the show, but blogger ate it. Too bad if you weren't listening. It was great.

19 SEPTEMBER 2005:MADNESS

I came in about 12:20 and heard part of this set.

Cockney Rebel, MAD MAD MOONLIGHT ("Mmmm, delicious" Jonesy purred, then he burped, hehe.)
Super Furry, DON'T BE A FOOL
88 ???
New Pornographers, TWIN CINEMA

The Duke: Spectra

???,
Damned, HELOISE
?,??

NO SHIT!!!!! Madness is on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I was always a 2-Tone girl! I even nicknamed myself "Rudie.")

They were on KROQ last time they were here. They are playing the Troubadour tonight.

It's very static-y today, and I am still dealing with Internet virus drama, and I missed the last chunk.  It's a bit spotty.

Jonesy is saying he is through with someone, "that lot", and not working with them anymore. They are tarts, says he of this someone or someones.

Madness wants some Imagineers from Disney. Sushi parades? A lot of laughter and stuff I couldn't hear.

"This is a conversation about English food, please don't worry," says a Mad Lad.
"Don't adjust your minds," adds another.

Madness is on English time. More laughter and stuff I couldn't catch or didn't write down fast enough.

"This is a conversation about English Soccer." Madness member says this in an English version of an American accent.

They are really enjoying themselves, but it's hard to keep up with the typing. THERE ARE SO MANY OF THEM TALKING AND JOKING AT ONCE...

"Where's my wally?"

"At the end of the harvest, everything was pickled, everything that was left over-- pickled eggs, cuccumbers, and most important, pickled people."

"Pale sausages covered in lipstick-- you can get battered and non-battered!"  Jonesy, I think. Really hysterical laughter from the whole studio. It sounds like a fun day to be there!!!!

"Food Poisoning!"

You can even get "Battered Mars bars up North!" They are all laughing hysterically.

The Duke

"English mustard. Stick some up your nose and feel the pain."

Madness is not allowed to leave the state of California. They will be back on the 25th to watch some Footie. One Madness has a sister in Ventura. I think the footie is Jonesy's team.

Michael Myers skit? "You weren't allowed to say yes or no... It was in the box." And it was brilliant. It was in black and white.

Jonesy is going to play some Peter Sellers.

Peter Sellers, BOILED BANANAS & CARROTS (BEEF STEW)
Clip: "Mr Jones, do you have any kidney?"
London Boys,WE ARE THE LONDON BOYS
Clip: "I have my sausage, Mr Jones." "Oh, Miss Meadows, I wish all my ladies were as easy to please!" "I do try, Mr. Jones!"
,
CocRosie and that singer, ALL THOSE BEAUTIFUL BOYS
, JENNIFER JE NE PAS
David Bowie, CHANGES

"Madness in the foyer now!"

One Madness' first single purchase was PYJAMARAMA by Roxy Music. Another Madness was BOLAN BOOGIE.

"Lipstick on your codfish," trills a Madness.

Someone met Ferry at a cafe they other day. "He does a bit of aristocratic, and fixed up a manor house," but moved his old kitchen into it, and had all his old stuff in there.

Foxes are hunting the aristocrats now. They are in every garden now, like big rats.

The most successful musician in England has never sold a record. People just like having him in the record company office.

Roxy Music is supposed to play Camden Palace?

The Duke: Jenny McCarthy is guesting today after Jonesy, listen today and maybe she will let you bone her in the limo at the premiere.

I think this is all English humour that you had to know already.

What rhymes with London Boys??? Let's see..
London Boys/ lipstick sausage / gherkins...

They are all doing Ferry imitations. They are all fans. Now they are talking about him...

He's like 60 and has loads of kids and has been married... He always wears a cumberband... he can't dance, but he could stand very well...Ferry sashays and bends the knee slightly... He's seen alot of James Bond movies....

Roxy Music, PYJAMARAMA
Kinks, VICTORIA
The Who, HAPPY JACK

Football... soccer, etc...American's aren't interested in Football unless it's American football...

"Soccer, a minority sport played by every other country in the world," quips a Madness... Chelsea, Holland, etc..

They are singing a song about Jonesy-- and a Pie shop where Bryan Ferry worked, it's too LONDON BOYS.... the lyrics incorporate all of the food conversations... it's pretty funny...

He's whistling for Dead Men Walking tickets. They are all whistling with him! And adding little funny bits! I LOVE MADNESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...And more food lyrics.... too bad if you missed this!!!! Even if you missed everything they were saying there was so much laughter you couldn't help but laugh too!

The Duke

"You've been listening to JJB."
"Are you hungry?" Quips a Madness.
"I'm a bit hungry," says Jonesy.
"For Love," adds a Madness.

Gordon Lightfoot, IF YOU COULD READ MY MIND

Two winners.

They are singing it, or actually, humming and making up lyrics about fish and chips and taste glands and lard...

Deep fat fryers have been banned in California. Instead, everything is cooked in Mayonaisse.

MADNESS IS PLAYING TOMORROW NIGHT AT TROUBADOUR!!!!!

They are playing that football song.

GOD BLESS JONESY!
