If you’re looking for a station that plays “vintage” modern rock – from the 80s and the 90s – then by all means tune into WOXY’s Vintage channel.  I’ve been listening to it all day and enjoying it quite a bit.

Go on, do it, you won’t be sorry! :)

The B52s

Posted in The B52s on November 7, 2008 by Marilyn

Ahhhh, I get all giddy when I listen to the B52s.  They are definitely one of the classic bands that exemplify “new wave” music.  Happy, bouncy, fun dance music rocks my socks!

BTW – they are in the Sex Dwarf spotlight TONIGHT @ Fluid Nightclub.

“Give Me Back My Man”

“52 Girls”

“Private Idaho”

“Legal Tender”

and their newest song…

“Funplex”

Gosh darn, it’s gonna be a lot of fun!

Wire

Posted in Wire on November 2, 2008 by Marilyn

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of seeing seminal act Wire live at Johnny Brenda’s.  It was, by far, the smallest venue on the US tour.  It was an extremely intimate show; it literally gave me goosebumps! They played a mix of their classics and also tracks from their new album Object 47 – which is AMAZING!  Do yourself a favor and pick it up!

“One of Us” (from the new album)

“The 15th” (live)

“Pink Flag”

The Sisters of Mercy

I really need to get back into posting here!  I’ve been working on other projects and otherwise keeping busy.  I moved back to Philadelphia last month.  Glad to be back in the city I love!  Now that I’m back, I am able to take on more DJ gigs.  In fact, the next event I’m appearing at is for the after-party for the Sisters of Mercy show at the Trocadero Theatre on Halloween night!  I’m really excited about this – because I have been a fan of SoM for a long time.  They haven’t released anything new in quite a while, but that’s ok – I love all their classics.

Sisters of Mercy – Lucretia, My Reflection

Sisters of Mercy – Dominion/Mother Russia

Sisters of Mercy – Marian (Live)

Sisters of Mercy – This Corrosion

Blondie - Parallel Lines 30th AnniversaryI know, I know.  I haven’t posted anything interesting is OVER a month!  I have an admission: I have been hooked on playing Scrabulous on Facebook!  So that’s what I’ve been doing with my free time. Hehe.

Anyways, this blog post is dedicated to Blondie!  Yes, Blondie.  That awesome new wave/disco/dance punk band from the late 70s and early 80s!  Ms. Debbie Harry and co. are celebrating the 30th anniversary of their album Parallell Lines by going on tour!  They are making a stop at the Count Basie Theatre in Red Bank, NJ – the former town I lived in, but still nearby – on Tuesday, June 17th.  Me and two girlfriends have tickets!  I can’t wait!
