Live From Germany

Greetings from Germany. The fog in London lifted long enough for our flight to get in on time, and our connecting flight to Hamburg out on time. Had seen horrendous stories online about American Airlines in flight service, however our crew was great, the only complaints was that the check in service at Logan was a clusterf*ck. The idiot supposedly coordinating the check in line kept rearranging things on a whim and refused to acknowledge any questions directed at him.

Anyhow after we landed we managed to stay awake long enough to catch the Town of Flensburg's number 1 punk rock band Die Fro-Tee Slips at a local club. Heidi even hopped up on stage and sang along with one song. The pictures here though almost didn't happen after yours truly became collateral damage of some ferocious German pit activity and got slammed with the camera up against a wall. The show was sold out, you can see pictures here, here, and here, video here and here. And "Vielen Dank" to my nephew Finn, and my Brother-in-law Heinz for hooking me up with the internet access to make this post.

Boxing Day

How was your Christmas? Better than James Brown I hope.
No word from Hier Malone, hope him and Heidi made through the London Fog.
Christmas at the Wormstead was fun. Carrie jo's 89 year old Grandfather watched the Pats game and entertained us with tales like, "I remember when radio came out.."
He walks 3 miles a day and just moved into a complex that has
"15 widows, one right next door" This guy's seen it all.
The depression, prohibition, ww2, and is sharp as a tack recalling his life's adventures. We should all live so long and have as many tales to tell. He tells me he plays the fiddle and harmonica,and I told him next to time to bring the fiddle and play some.
We all had the christmas ham, and the Gansett was flowing.
Oh and Mike,Pats won, knew you'd want to know.
Happy new year!

auf Wiedersehen, Frohe Weihnachten

Hey folks, WDOA will be going into a period of dormancy for the happy holiday season as myself and Heidi head over to Germany for Christmas, and about a zillion different people's birthdays. Currently we are scheduled to leave tomorrow from Boston and meet a connecting flight to Hamburg in Heathrow. At this point this might get ugly and we may even be stranded in Heathrow as the famous London Fog is causing all sorts of chaos at the airport. If we have internet access we may post some pictures and such along with way. We will be back at the homebase in mid January.

Life Sucks, by Ren and Stimpy

It's like Fort Knox trying to get in here. I love it when they upgrade stuff and make it more difficult to use .
I was just going to post this and it took me an hour and a phone call with Malone to just get through.
Anyway, check out this rare Ren and Stimpy stuff.

Now where the fuck is that link button?
I see the spell check and photo link, JESUS! I guess life does suck.

Inflatable Santa

What's this new trend towards these ugly inflatable Santas and Frostys that seem to be popping up on every other house around here. They are extra tacky when inflated and look a giant used condom when they are deflated, as many of them become. I keep picturing one of these coming to life, breaking loose and wreaking havoc a la the Stay Pufft Marshmallow Man in Ghostbusters
I used to think the plain plastic Santas were tacky, but these blow-up Santas make them look like a freakin' Michaelangelo sculpture.

More Christmas Cheer

The Worm Brothers, although too lazy and shiftless to post it here have put together another Christmas/Holiday offering, also at no additional cost a overview of other music that came out in 2006. Check it out here.

Golden Pizza, gouging on prices

Rant Mode: ON

Back when WDOA was broadcasting from our then studios on Fenwood Rd. in Worcester, MA many a cheap pizzas were consumed from Golden Pizza on Grafton St. Well we've since moved out to Spencer, but the other night was in Worcester past dinner time and on the way home decided to order a pizza from Golden's latest shop on Main St. in Worcester. Big Mistake, for some reason the prices are absolutely astronomical....Usually a small pepperoni bought on Grafton St. was around $4 or a bit more.. however it was almost six and half bucks for a small pepperoni pizza at the Main St. location. Me thinks it has something to do with that the Main St. location sells beer and is smack dab in the middle of gang-bangerville just off Webster Square, so maybe they have to pay off the local yo yo yos to stay in business in the "hood". further... the pizza just wasn't that good, no way was it worth 6+ dollars, also I had called it in and when I got there after they said it would 10 to 15 minutes it was a half hour before the pizza was even ready... Me thinks they didn't even put it in the oven till after I got there..

The Greatest Story Ever Told....

An alternate ending to "A Charlie Brown Christmas"... BTW Not Safe For Work...

Lazy, no good, shiftless

Boy , that's me when it comes to posting here I guess.
Sometimes I just forget. Other times I can't be bothered.
But, is that fair to you, the thousands of fans who listen to The Worm Bros?
Well, go here

for the latest.
It's almost Christmas and we started with a holiday song.
Oh, and this year they're really pushing the whole "Christmas" thing , so no saying "happy holidays"
Here in Wormtown they have the largest Christmas tree in the citys' history.
It took an entire afternoon and shut down east side traffic just to move it 3 miles. But I'm straying.
Listen to the current show. Then listen to the last show.

http://wdoa.com/wormbros11122006.htm

It contains Jeff's salute to spys, even before that russian one died.
Maybe Jeff knows something....also The Downbeat 5 and The Queers live at Ralphs.
And then listen to our Halloween show,

http://wdoa.com/wormbros10282006.htm

Then go have a couple of beers, Narragansett if possible.
Then you should be caught up and ready for the year end show we hope to get up
before wdoa goes on chritmas vacation.
You'll have to do the copy/paste thingy because the link button isn't working.
Either that or I'm lazy, shiftless, etc...
