36 -- SPEAKER_05: Hi, Mark.
37 -- SPEAKER_05: Hi, Mark. Hi, there.
38 -- SPEAKER_05: I've been listening to your band for a long time, and I've liked all the stuff
39 -- SPEAKER_05: you've done all the way back to car crash.
40 -- SPEAKER_05: A bell is to read.
41 -- SPEAKER_05: Did you catch that?
42 -- SPEAKER_05: Car bomb.
43 -- SPEAKER_05: He got a car bomb.
44 -- SPEAKER_05: He must not be listening to it as that closely.
45 -- SPEAKER_01: It's been a while.
46 -- SPEAKER_05: Go ahead.
47 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, the question was, have you guys considered re-releasing on CD all the work that you've done up to date?
48 -- SPEAKER_05: I have.
49 -- SPEAKER_05: I have.
50 -- SPEAKER_05: What do you mean by that?
51 -- SPEAKER_05: The old LP...
52 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, they are available on CD.
53 -- SPEAKER_05: Everything is?
54 -- SPEAKER_05: Sure is.
55 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay, that's good to know.
56 -- SPEAKER_05: It's a testament to our own lack of aggressiveness.
57 -- SPEAKER_05: of promoting our own work that you don't know about it.
58 -- SPEAKER_06: And, caller, you brought up a very good point, I'd like to add.
59 -- SPEAKER_05: Of what?
60 -- SPEAKER_06: The conversion of handmade, early recordings now available on the...
61 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, they're available on CD.
62 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay, well, can I order...
63 -- SPEAKER_05: Should I order those through you?
64 -- SPEAKER_03: Is that Universal Media NetWeb?
65 -- SPEAKER_03: Is that the...
66 -- SPEAKER_05: Let me finish here.
67 -- SPEAKER_05: What did Eno tell you?
68 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, you should get the...
69 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay.
70 -- SPEAKER_05: You're supposed to have a magazine when we do this interview.
71 -- SPEAKER_05: You know what the hell you're talking about.
72 -- SPEAKER_07: about? That's not part of the public domain, then, huh?
73 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, actually, I believe that it is.
74 -- SPEAKER_05: It's the thing you have to stand is that SST's press release is not motivated by, um...
75 -- SPEAKER_05: Woo!
76 -- SPEAKER_05: Woo!
77 -- SPEAKER_07: We wanted to be a celebration because we think that everything you're doing is really great.
78 -- SPEAKER_07: You're an American treasure.
79 -- SPEAKER_04: Well, thank you.
80 -- SPEAKER_06: Let's take our second caller at this time, and although you're on the air, caller.
81 -- SPEAKER_05: Hi, Mark. I'm calling back again.
82 -- SPEAKER_05: Um, at the risk of you being, I'm angry at me for not having read your magazine.
83 -- SPEAKER_01: God damn it!
84 -- SPEAKER_05: Um, do you ever hear...
85 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, no?
86 -- SPEAKER_05: Directly?
87 -- SPEAKER_05: Uh, no, though he's actually quoted Rolling Stone article about our, about, a little bit about our record.
88 -- SPEAKER_05: So...
89 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay, I couldn't understand why he would be upset about anything like that.
90 -- SPEAKER_05: They're totally removed. What?
91 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, that's why I would think that he wouldn't even, like you say, if he's supposed to say, well, why, why
92 -- SPEAKER_05: I wish she'd get upset or something.
93 -- SPEAKER_05: What did Eno tell you?
94 -- SPEAKER_05: Brian Eno, he's referring to.
95 -- SPEAKER_05: Brian Eno is a U-2's producer, which I'm a Brian Eno fan.
96 -- SPEAKER_00: He too.
97 -- SPEAKER_05: And I actually always thought it was very interesting that he ended up being their producer.
98 -- SPEAKER_05: Did you hear about the lawsuit against Jeff Coons in New York?
99 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, yeah, we've been following that.
100 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay.
101 -- SPEAKER_05: The final decision is not out, and this will be a continuing...
102 -- SPEAKER_05: We'll hear about this in the future on an ongoing basis.
103 -- SPEAKER_05: Yeah, and that's one really.
104 -- SPEAKER_05: The reason why we felt that we should put out our magazine
105 -- SPEAKER_05: was that we really wanted to sort of throw our two cents into the debate here,
106 -- SPEAKER_05: and especially we realized that, at least in the world of music,
107 -- SPEAKER_05: the people who were actually creatively using the technology
108 -- SPEAKER_05: and the world of media around them are never represented.
109 -- SPEAKER_05: What about, Mark, what about guns for New American Radio?
110 -- SPEAKER_05: Right.
111 -- SPEAKER_05: Because...
112 -- SPEAKER_05: We're parodying all the Westerns, right?
113 -- SPEAKER_05: I would say we were parodying anything there.
114 -- SPEAKER_05: No, I think we were just referencing...
115 -- SPEAKER_05: we were referencing, you know, just how much weapons like that are in our culture.
116 -- SPEAKER_04: How are you doing?
117 -- SPEAKER_04: There's one thing I hate.
118 -- SPEAKER_04: Oh, the noise, noise, noise, noise.
119 -- SPEAKER_06: I'm back here with Mark Costler.
120 -- SPEAKER_06: The color we just had, Mark wanted to know if you were in touch with the Dweasel Zappa.
121 -- SPEAKER_06: Or Frank Zappa, rather, as he's spearheaded some of that, you know...
122 -- SPEAKER_07: Don't have enough data.
123 -- SPEAKER_07: Mark, you there?
124 -- SPEAKER_05: Yeah, I'm just going to...
125 -- SPEAKER_05: You're just returning it in spades, are you?
126 -- SPEAKER_05: A little blues never.
127 -- SPEAKER_07: He's going to return it in spades.
128 -- SPEAKER_07: Yeah?
129 -- SPEAKER_03: We just had a caller who was wondering if you had contacted Frank Zappa,
130 -- SPEAKER_03: who has a lot to do with...
131 -- SPEAKER_03: censorship and things like that.
132 -- SPEAKER_05: No, we haven't.
133 -- SPEAKER_05: Okay, now I'm going to do my impersonation of George Zampere on the panpipes.
134 -- SPEAKER_05: Don't you feel better already?
135 -- SPEAKER_05: Aren't you all ready to all go out and see that movie, Aspen?
136 -- SPEAKER_06: Call, are you there?
137 -- SPEAKER_05: You know, that's what people are going to think of Colorado.
138 -- SPEAKER_05: They'll look at that movie.
139 -- SPEAKER_06: Isn't that the worst?
140 -- SPEAKER_06: Hello, Colorado.
141 -- SPEAKER_06: What do you have to say for yourself as a Colorado resident?
142 -- SPEAKER_06: Come on, caller.
143 -- SPEAKER_07: Here's caller.
144 -- SPEAKER_07: Hey, that's Jack Horkheimer.
145 -- SPEAKER_07: Is this legal?
146 -- SPEAKER_05: You tell them to put the tape recorder closer to the phone so that it'll come through.
147 -- SPEAKER_06: I was wondering about...
148 -- SPEAKER_07: Somebody doing that with half their brains.
149 -- SPEAKER_06: The little dippers...
150 -- SPEAKER_06: placement tonight. Maybe that color will call back.
151 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, don't cut them off if they're, you know...
152 -- SPEAKER_07: Oh, they did. Oh, they did. I'm sorry.
153 -- SPEAKER_07: Hey, Mark, I got kind of a technical question, you...
154 -- SPEAKER_07: I don't know about anything technical.
155 -- SPEAKER_07: Are you up for it?
156 -- SPEAKER_07: Well, I don't know.
157 -- SPEAKER_07: Why do you want to ask me?

167 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, the joys of a CD player that you can just...
168 -- None: Oh, I'm sorry. I feel...
169 -- SPEAKER_05: There's someone you're really not...
170 -- SPEAKER_05: Copyright infringement.
171 -- SPEAKER_05: Not for Walt Disney.
172 -- SPEAKER_07: Who did he rip?
173 -- SPEAKER_07: Who did he borrow from?
174 -- SPEAKER_07: Who did he borrow from?
175 -- SPEAKER_07: Who, Walt Disney? Yeah.
176 -- SPEAKER_05: Well, I don't know. I guess he was sort of did a lot of terrible things to...
177 -- SPEAKER_05: I don't know.
178 -- SPEAKER_05: Stravinsky and Shaw, COVID.
179 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, in the soundtrack.
180 -- SPEAKER_06: Ah.
181 -- SPEAKER_06: And, uh, caller, you want to add?
182 -- SPEAKER_04: Okay, what's your number? I'll call you back.
183 -- SPEAKER_04: Oh, all right. What do you want?
184 -- SPEAKER_06: Trying to hang sausage, are you?
185 -- SPEAKER_06: Okay, now see, what's your take on that?
186 -- SPEAKER_05: Hey, come on, you see, you're just ignoring those calls?
187 -- SPEAKER_05: Those are actually good calls. You know, I can hear that those are good calls.
188 -- SPEAKER_06: They just keep hanging up, really.
189 -- SPEAKER_04: Oh, I don't understand.
190 -- SPEAKER_06: There's a lot of father.
191 -- SPEAKER_05: Yes.
192 -- SPEAKER_07: Let's talk about your new label. Can we be on your new label?
193 -- SPEAKER_05: I don't know. Send us some tapes.
194 -- SPEAKER_05: We don't really want to put out anyone else in our new label except ourselves.
195 -- SPEAKER_07: Uh, caller?
196 -- SPEAKER_05: We're small-minded and selfish.
197 -- SPEAKER_07: You can have the money.
198 -- SPEAKER_07: How's it going?
199 -- SPEAKER_04: Hi, I'm here.
200 -- SPEAKER_04: I'm a fanzine artist, and frankly, I'm scared by all this.
201 -- SPEAKER_06: You're not alone, caller.
202 -- SPEAKER_04: I'm a fanzine artist clip out little samples of, you know, in the sound.
203 -- SPEAKER_04: Don't be scared.
204 -- SPEAKER_04: You know, and...
205 -- SPEAKER_04: Look what happened to you?
206 -- SPEAKER_07: So what? We're not scared.
207 -- SPEAKER_04: Yeah, I want to congratulate you for fighting the good fight for, you know, your doing...
208 -- SPEAKER_07: Trailblazers.
209 -- SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
210 -- SPEAKER_04: I mean, it sounds corny, but true.
211 -- SPEAKER_04: And also for exposing, you know, these quote-unquote underground labels, you know,
212 -- SPEAKER_04: that many of these underground labels just call themselves,
213 -- SPEAKER_04: such as SST network, you know, tons of underground labels are making millions of dollars.
214 -- SPEAKER_05: Yes, the story is the same.
215 -- SPEAKER_05: It's just a different, has a different face to it.
216 -- SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
217 -- SPEAKER_04: You know, the whole fanzine world, you know, basically cuts up lots of things and puts them in their eyes,
218 -- SPEAKER_04: and it's not like a whole clipping out of a whole magazine.
219 -- SPEAKER_05: You know, like Hinko's copy center got sued a while back for that same kind of copyrights.
220 -- SPEAKER_06: They traced it back to there, huh?
221 -- SPEAKER_05: Yeah.
222 -- SPEAKER_05: I think that must have been done to make an example of them or to scare the shit out of them.
223 -- SPEAKER_05: I just said shit. I didn't say, I just said shit.
224 -- SPEAKER_07: That's all right.
225 -- SPEAKER_07: Hey, Mark.
226 -- SPEAKER_07: a fragment of shit.
227 -- SPEAKER_07: What do you think of caller ID?
228 -- SPEAKER_07: Day.
229 -- SPEAKER_05: I think all that stuff's very frightening.
230 -- SPEAKER_06: I don't like that.
231 -- SPEAKER_05: Unfortunately, this is what I'd have to say, is that I'd say, keep on clipping out your art and doing what you do.
232 -- SPEAKER_05: I mean, there's a lot of people who are, how many rap records are out, or rather hip-hop, they're not all getting clearance fees, and they're not all playing the game.
233 -- SPEAKER_05: They somehow act like they are.
234 -- SPEAKER_05: They're not, they're just keeping quiet about it.
235 -- SPEAKER_05: Yeah, there's your magazine completely unavailable now.
236 -- SPEAKER_05: It is now completely unavailable, that is correct.
237 -- SPEAKER_06: And, you know, that last caller, it looks like he was looking for a little encouragement tonight from you.
238 -- SPEAKER_06: And do you think you can offer it genuinely this evening, or?
239 -- SPEAKER_05: I just think that the smaller you are, I think that, I think if you're just doing a Xerox fanzine,
240 -- SPEAKER_05: I mean, this wouldn't worry about it.
241 -- SPEAKER_05: And even when you're doing bigger stuff, I wouldn't worry about it.
242 -- SPEAKER_05: and I would worry about it only if and when something actually happened.
243 -- SPEAKER_00: I'd always wear a fingernailipot
244 -- SPEAKER_00: and that's my outfit.
245 -- SPEAKER_00: I wore a yellow outfit.
246 -- SPEAKER_00: I'd wear a yellow fingernailipollary.
247 -- SPEAKER_00: And that was a ritual I did day after day.
248 -- SPEAKER_00: Changing my collar is the green, glue.
249 -- SPEAKER_05: Oh, I'm wearing, there's a long underwear right.
250 -- SPEAKER_07: Van of White's going to sue us right now, I think.
251 -- SPEAKER_07: I'm going to see you.
252 -- SPEAKER_07: That's what I'm going to do.
253 -- SPEAKER_07: And, uh, Mark Costler, always a pleasure.
254 -- SPEAKER_07: Call, are you there?
255 -- SPEAKER_07: Hello.
256 -- SPEAKER_05: Hey, this is Noah number two.

270 -- SPEAKER_06: Oh, right.
271 -- SPEAKER_07: Can you say that?
272 -- SPEAKER_06: Now, we're going to move on to a compilation that Deer Records released.
273 -- SPEAKER_02: What kind of a rip-off is this?
274 -- SPEAKER_02: A bowel from a dog?
275 -- SPEAKER_02: My gosh.
276 -- SPEAKER_02: You must be nuts.
