bobbob1313 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I was at Denny's last night and smack dab in the middle of my brinner, I hear blaring (very loudly) over the speakers, "Impossible Germany". My friend with me just started laughing because he saw how I perked up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

creativetype Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Thanks to some persistence (and insider contacts) by yours truly, a brief clip of "Walken" is now in the rotation to be played at Okla.

bigshoulders Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 what was the story on?? It was maybe 5-8 sec. used to segue the news stories is all. One would have to be an astute listener to pick up on it. k Quote Link to post Share on other sites

virtualreason Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 We turned on the country/folk station at work on Saturday and I got to hear Acuff Rose, Hesitating Beauty, AND Someone Else's Song in a 3 hour period.

isadorah Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 Really? What song was it? I once heard "Black Wings" in a cafe here in Va and I nearly fell off my seat! oh, i'm really bad with song names. don't know them, but i do know it was from the brawlers, bawlers, and bastards album and was a bawler. i was quite surprised and actually paused the lunch conversation and pointed out to everyone at the table that the restaurant was playing tom waits. they all looked at me a bit puzzled and we went back to our regular conversation. my colleagues are used to me and my musical nuances.

bobbob1313 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 So, I wasn't out and about, but I've got the movie "A Guy Thing" on in the background on FuseTV and "Kamera" plays in a scene with Jason Lee and Julia Stiles. Surprising, for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RaspberryJam Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 I just heard a tiny little snippet of Heavy Metal Drummer on the Today show. During a diet segment, curiously. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
drolow Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Heard Impossible Germany while i was getting my car fixed at a Honda dealership by me. Hearing Nels' guitar solo made me feel better about the bill Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sly like a Foxwell Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 I heard "someone elses song" at the Woodcraft store in Madison. think it helped me spend too much . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afterthefact Posted May 11, 2008 Share Posted May 11, 2008 whenever I hear wilco playing at public stores or resturaunts I always ask them to change the song because I find the music offensive. Haha, this is WAY off subject, but this made me think of it so I had to say it. I was at a video store once and it was just two guys there that night, so they were playing Dead/Alive on all of the TVs.Some little kid was loving it but his mom threw a huge fit and even got them fired. From that point on they only played either Disney movies or musicals. I wish they hadn't done that just because I didn't feel like seeing Bambi everytime I went there. Other than that, it was pretty cool. Ok, I KNOW, I KNOW, and I'm sorry, you can get back to what you were talking about now Quote Link to post Share on other sites
hardwood floor Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 heard impossible germany today at a convenience store doesn't even surprise me anymore then i heard the waterboys at a starbucks about an hour later and that was pretty damn cool Quote Link to post Share on other sites
