From beautiful downtown Merryfield in the Shadow of the Mosaic District, it's the Ready Kilowatt Hour on Radio Fairfax. Tonight we say happy birthday to Mick Jagger with the latest from the Rolling Stones, plus new ones from Metric, Little Grand Dad. A new release of some old music by the Bloodhole Surfers, along with Big Special and Texas singer Brian Jack. We'll throw in some depesh mode, Annie DeFranco, and even more. For now, after five and a half years on the air, we play our first tune from Rush in celebration of Gary Weinrib's birthday on July 29th, and you may know him better as singer and bassist Getty Lee. He's 73 years old and enjoying your 50th anniversary world tour. This song for 1984 is a song loosely based on the story of Getty Lee's parents during the Holocaust. This is Rush.

All that we can do is just survive. All that we can do to help ourselves is stay alive. All that we can do is just survive. All that we can do to help ourselves is stay alive Rugged lines of ragged gray. Skeletons they shuffle away Shouting guns and smoking guns. I clutch the wire fence until my fingers bleed. A movement will not kneel, a heart that cannot feel. Days and weeks, months go by Don't feel the hunger too weak to cry. I sound the one by the prison gate. Are the liberators here? Do I hope or do I fear? For my father and my brother, it's too late. But I must help my mother stand up straight. I'm the liberator here. It's too late, but I must tell my mother stand up shape. Are we the only human beings to serve by? Are we the last ones that we die? Are we the only human beings to survive? I'm I'm always down, I am always up, I'm always down to be the number you call in the night, don't even ask. Am I okay? I am always down to be the number you call in the night, don't even ask. Am I awake? I am always up. I am always down. I am always up. I'm always down. I am always up. I am always down. Anytime I hear you always I am always anytime I hear you always take it. I am always down to be the number two. And you'll find me on the straight and grave. I am always down to the number with you. When I was coming away, I am always down. I love to flow. I love to flow to that stuff. I love to make it works out for you.

It's not quite right for me. I guess we should just fool. And I find it hard to breathe when you get too close. For once in my life, we didn't should do it right. If we just talk to it through, I should just talk to you. But it never goes to ground, and I struggle to understand what you already do. Tell me is it right, babe? Tell me if it feels nice for you.

From an album that we've waited twenty-seven years for. It's called After the Astronauts just been released. It was originally scheduled to come out in 1998. But it was shelved by Capitol Records for being too abrasive and uncommercial. The band originally began when two of its members met while going to college in San Antonio. And uh what can you say about the Buthold Surfers? Before that, Anita Franco! Her 1999 album that wasn't considered abrasive or uncommercial, but it was called Up Up Up. Up Up Up. It was her ninth album. She's in Buffalo, New York. She's actually lived in New Orleans for a while, but for many years was part of a Buffalo, New York music scene. She's there, she's in New Orleans with her husband and her kids. We started out with Pixie from Surfer Rosa from 1988. We heard Honey Machine. They were from Boston. I don't know. Maybe he'll be from Boston. Who knows?

I was madly in love with you before we ever met. I saw all your movies, I smoked your cigarettes. I drove down your way until the mountain time. Try to whip up the crowd. Why did you think about that? The cops never wanna turn back.

My favorite show. So pass round the fan table. Pass round the code It's ringing out, it's ringing deep, it's ringing loud, and there's always a clean. Try to pick up the crowd.

SPEAKER_04 45:10

I hope you know the rest of me and that I keep on and keep you free. There's a strong wind from over the sea and darling. The nation's leaning. There's a damn patch in the ceiling. It is someone saw the face of God, but I only saw the paint peeling. Do their things with a nod. Consider a crook's feelings. The patch in the pips need feeding. All I see in the land is seeding. Any man's face or the face of God. Never know. Only free when they're sleeping. Everything is teething, England's hands are barking. The billionaires are greeding and the children are still starving. If you're gonna stick around, your best play for parking. Get your ticket from the face of God. Great your Michael with a nod if you ever find him. Consider a creators' feelings. Billions of shows and doors like snakes can peeling, like foaming crabs of stars. There's a strong wind from over the sea, and darling. The nation's leaning. There's an audience in the ceiling. And if someone saw the face of God, but I can only see the slack jaws and hear the sounds of jeering. Greet your killer with a nod. Consider your feelings. You only smile when you're dreaming. You're only free when you're sleeping.

unknown 46:45

You always smile when you dream.

SPEAKER_11 48:12

SPEAKER_08 48:15

You touch me on a medicine.

Measuring doses. Every day of the week.

SPEAKER_08 48:34

I get addicted when you touch me. Uh-huh. Be my medicine, uh hard, uh, be my medicine, uh, uh, being a medicine, one shot. I never really asked.

SPEAKER_11 49:36

Gives me more than I need.

SPEAKER_08 49:40

I can be patient till you touch me on the mess one shot. I never really asked you. I'm on a pendant on the city.

SPEAKER_06 52:31

See what it brings. Hello's goodbyes a thousand midnight, lost in sleepless lap dreamers, thoughtless thoughts, my friends, but we now will be ghosts. Shining, silver lining, white last hours, all my flowers, a place to hide the truth that you cry. Everybody says goodbye. Sleeping, lovers in the air. Which birth will be ghost again. But that's not my friend.

SPEAKER_01 55:43

The song Ghosts Again off their what remains their latest album, Memento Mori. Meme meh. There we go. Memento mori in the year 2023. And it was written in honor of uh founding member Andy Fletcher, who uh had died suddenly in the I guess in the wake of COVID. I don't know if it was because of COVID, but it was around that time. Before that, we heard Mama doing medicine off their 2022 album, Household Name. Band originally from Calabasas, California, who'd been in Brooklyn for a while. They expanded from a duo to a quartet, and they are going to be in DC on October 10th at the 9.30 club, appearing with Basement. We started out with Big Special.
