Show Notes:
Recorded Wednesday, October 8 2008 (9:30 PM – 11:30 PM) at Zodiac Racquet Club, Southgate MI
“Schmoe’s playlist project better end soon because I’m running out of football puns. This week, it’s Greg’s turn. Plus, the guys show off their lyric writing skills.”
00:58 – Bob-lo boats, which would take us to Bob-lo Island
02:25 – Sufjan Stevens’ Greetings from Michigan: The Great Lake State
05:46 – Gene Kranz and Chris Craft, courtesy of Wikipedia
09:23 – Schmoe’s blog – link coming soon
13:55 – this “melody/medley” confluence will come up a lot, I’m sure
16:22 – told you
16:50 – what a bizarre, unintentional “shave-and-a-haircut” laugh
17:28 – a heck of a lot was edited out of Greg’s playlist
17:54 – Greg’s complete playlist, as e-mailed to us [PDF]; also exhibited below:
Greg's Toledo Reference by WAOTNC on Scribd
19:44 – Jennifer’s Halloween-themed t-shirt read “I’m the treat”
20:05 – an obvious edit, caused by my taking a bathroom-break before starting the newscast
20:20 – Roy Orbison: A Black & White Night
20:39 – Nod to the Storyteller
20:44 – Radio Margaritaville and Sirius Radio
21:44 – USA Weekend‘s “Margaritaville” verse contest winner
24:39 – that part of the conversation was cut for time (following Schmoe’s mention of a gorilla that looked like Greg), but the first mention of a cave occurs at 11:17 … and, yes, it came from Greg
25:13 – yet another reference to Episode 53
29:46 – a reference to Barney Stinson’s Chain Circle Pyramid of Screaming (look for the April 14 2008 entry)
29:04 – Schmoe was not present for the start of the recording
30:47 – a digression cut from before the Gospel from the Coast. I’m still fascinated how Greg could hear a song which has absolutely no horns in it and think it’s Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass. Incidentally, this recording of the Zorba the Greek is from the Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels soundtrack.
31:11 – oops, the correct titles are “Spanish Flea” and “Tijuana Taxi”
