This list will only be interesting to three people.

I DJ'ed at the Velvet last night. It was a fill-in for someone else.

1. Ken Nordine and Towa Tei - Sound Museum
2. Cafe Noir - Strictly Dyno

The theme last night was 'Wednesday", so I threw in some typewriter music.

3. 'Brazil' Soundtrack - The Office
4. Kid Koala and Money Mark - Carpel Tunnel
5. Flying Lizards - Money (that's what I want)
6. KMFDM - These Boots Were Made for Walking
7. The Art of Noise - Metaforce
8. Mouth Music - Crathadh 't 'Aodaich

The radio/list board wasn't working, so I tried to give a rundown of everything that had played. The roomie offered a different microphone.

9. Fantastic Plastic Machine - Bon Voyage
10. Tom Jones & Cardigans & Pepe Deluxe - Burning Down the House
11. Ladytron - Playgirl
12. Matthew Herbert - The Audience
13. Shirley Bassey - Easy Thing To Do
14. Portishead - Trip Hop Reconstruction
15. Dangerdoom - Old Skool
16. De La Soul - Transmitting Live From Mars
17. Roots Manuva - Clockwork

My childhood fear is still the bomb. A child full of woe would naturally be scared.

18. Tispy - El Bombo Atomico
19. Tom Leher - The Bomb
20. Fluke - Atom Bomb
21. Tom Waits - Big in Japan

23. Django Reinhardt - Nagasaki
24. Supreme Beings of Leisure - Last Girl on Earth
25. The Real Tuesday Weld - The Show Must Go On
26. Neotropic - Memories

It had been a long week, so it was finally time to relax. It was time for some downtempo.

27. Lush - When I Die
28. Julee Cruise - Simmer Kisses, Winter Tears
29. Shivaree - Goodnight Moon
30. Arling & Cameron - Voulez-Vous
31. Nicola Conte - Bossa Per Due
32. King Koomba - Fooling Myself
33. Peter Gabriel - Kiss That Frog (Sarah had just come back from a Genesis concert, so there was a discussion about Peter Gabriel.)
34. Peter Gabriel and Massive Attack - Games Without Frontiers
35. Cibo Matto - Le Pain Perdu

Last Wednesday, an old buddy, Barely, showed up after a three-month absence. He's a fan of "y'allternitive" and so I had a song for him.

44. Rasputina - Transylvanian Concubine
45. Afro Celt System and Peter Gabriel - When You're Falling (This was Sarah's actual request.)
46. Esquivel - Boulevard of Broken Dreams
47. Squirrel Nut Zippers - Lugubrious Wing Wang
48. Suzanne Vega - I Dream of Jeanie
49. Swingle Singers - Well Tempered Clavier book 2, prelude no. 11 in F Major (This settled a discussion about classical vs jazz as well as a source of the JEM song "I'm Sorry".)

Wednesday's child if full of woe. We closed with the songs that make me feel better.
