Thump and Growl

Occupy the Couch

2011-11-03T15:11:00.014-04:00

Who has two thumbs and is the new NYC coordinator for Occupy Wool Street? Me, that's who. (You'll just have to trust me about the thumbs.)

Occupy Wool Street is a Chicago-based campaign encouraging knitters, crafters, and designers to make hats, scarves, gloves, blankets, and such to help OWS protesters better endure the cold weather. The effort not only provides a valuable service for the movement, but also allows the participation of those who'd like to join the protest, but are unable to be there physically.

WBAI's Wall Street studios serve as the collection point, receiving both mailed packages and by-hand deliveries for distribution at Zuccotti Park and other protest points throughout NYC. For drop-offs, call (212) 209-2800 M-F 9:00-5:00 and have your name added to the security list, then bring photo ID with you. Otherwise mail gear to:

WBAI
120 Wall St., 10th floor
NY, NY 10005
attn: WOOL

FAQ:

Q - Does the fiber used to make the items need to be wool?
A - Nah. As long as it's clean and not animal fur.

Q - I have many wonderful qualities, but I don't knit or crochet or sew or anything. Does it need to be something I made myself?
A - Not really. I don't knit or crochet either, so I'm thinking of taking this opportunity to learn. But I'll likelier just be hitting up Etsy.

Q - Is this tax deductible?
A - Nope. But think of the warm fuzzy (see what I did there?) feeling you'll have, knowing you've put a lid on the noggin of a cold protester.

Q - I desperately, desperately want to do more. How can I do more? Hurry! Tell me! Quick!
A - You can help spread the word. There's an Occupy Wool Street Facebook page you can like and share. Plaster Tumblr with us. Tweet 'til you're sore. Noodge your crafty hipster friends. Harass your nanna. Host an OWS needle party (not the heroin kind, though.) Got a rooftop you can safely climb atop for shouting purposes?

Q - Is there some secret you've not yet told us?
A - Why, yes, there is. If you'd like to use a stitch or a safety pin to attach a personal note of encouragement to the protester who'll be wearing your handiwork, or even a photo of yourself, we'll be extra super double careful not to knock it off.

Q - I have questions, but I'm trapped under a heavy piece of furniture and can't get to the internets right now. What should I do?
A - First, yell for someone to come help you. Thank them profusely, 'cause folks is busy, y'know. Then later, send your questions to thumpandgrowl@gmail.com

Fight the power! With fuzzy mittens!

UPDATE 2/2/2012: WBAI and I would like to thank everyone who participated in Occupy Wool Street by creating, donating, and spreading the word. It's been an overwhelming success, with many more submissions than we ever imagined we'd get. Because of the volume of donations already received, and the changing logistics of the local Occupy Wall Street protests, we've decided to start winding it down now, rather than next month. Items we currently have on hand will still be distributed to the protesters, as will any currently in transit. If you're now working on something for the project, you may still send it in, if you like. Everything will find a worthy host.

Again, many thanks to all who took part. It's been heartening to see handmade hats, scarves, gloves, and such coming in from all over the country, including from the Occupy Berkeley Solidarity Knit-Ins, and one gentleman in the Bronx who himself knitted two or three boxes of beautiful cold weather gear.

Thank you all.

Sad news. With lots of parenthesis.

Looks like WPKN and I have parted ways, Folks. The "older episodes" link down on the right takes you to the archives of my Monday afternoon shows at 'PKN, and I'll leave the link in place until the last of 'em expire (they remain available for a year). And you can always catch me on WBAI, 99.5 FM in NYC, Tuesdays 10-noon (about to celebrate the show's first anniversary). The more fleeting archives of my show there (available for two weeks only) are at http://archive.wbai.org/show1.php?showid=Tues10amNoon .

Met a lot of great people at WPKN, both programmers and listeners. Y'all stay in touch.

Candye Kane in the Studio

2011-08-15T18:46:00.003-04:00

Feathery Blues chanteuse Candye Kane will be my guest in the studio Tuesday the 23rd, joined by pianist Sue Palmer and guitar motherfucker Laura Chavez. We'll be hearing some stuff from her new release Vagabond Sister, as well as her self-penned stage play, The Toughest Girl Alive, being performed this month at Le Poisson Rouge as part of the Fringe Festival. I imagine we'll also be talking about homophobes, porn, and and fierce fat women.

Jimmy Scott Birthday Special!

2011-07-08T12:39:00.004-04:00

Championed by such credmeisters as Lou Reed, Charlie Parker, Doc Pomus, Lionel Hampton, and Redd Foxx (!), Jazz balladeer Jimmy Scott survived unbridled tragedies to have not one but two distinct and separate music careers. In between the two? Waited tables at Bob's Big Boy. Tune in as we celebrate the 86th birthday of a man who wasn't expected to see 16. While you're at it, support WBAI and get a copy of Milestone Profiles: Jimmy Scott. An album guaranteed to snap your heart right in two.

This'll be your only opportunity to support Thump and Growl this Summer, so I hope you'll join us live!

Many thanks to all who called in and pledged their support for Thump and Growl last week. You/We are getting mightier with every fundraising show. And big ups to the artists and labels who donated use of their songs for the Volume 2 compilation premium. These things are getting increasingly less excruciating. For me, anyway.

One more fundraising episode in the Spring drive: Tune in Tuesday, May 24th 10-noon, when Thump and Growl celebrates Dylan's 70th Birthday by getting under the covers with Bob. We've got some tasty pledge premiums for ya in the night stand drawer.

Honey Brother, wildly clever songwriter, and tearer-upper of slide banjo Andrew Vladeck will be joining me in the studio for a smidge of talk and a lot of playing in support of his upcoming release, Passing Knowledge. (EP's just released, full-length is forthcoming.) I might even ask him about touchy-feely stuff. Nah. Probably not.

2011-04-08T13:13:00.004-04:00

Last week I requested and was granted a leave of absence from WPKN. Program Director Rod Richardson was a mensch about it, and assured me my time slot would be held until my return. I wanna thank my Connecticut and Long Island listeners in advance for their patience and support, and invite them to tune in to my NYC show in the meantime. Tuesdays 10-noon on WBAI 99.5 FM, streamed and archived at http://www.wbai.org/. There'll also be a fragrant and varied bouquet of 'PKN hosts filling in for me there (preesh, Folks!), so please check them out, as well. Hope everybody has a pleasant, government-free weekend.

Coming Up...

2011-01-18T13:36:00.003-05:00

Wanna hear what these angry neck veins are about? Tune in Tuesday for an in-studio performance/interview with Jim Bianco. Jim'll have his full band with him. Including trumpet and 'bone. And hopefully the tutu.

2010-12-12T19:55:00.008-05:00

Hiya, Peeps. Hope you're wallowing in tidings of comfort, joy, etc. We'll return to the playlists soon, but in the meantime, let's sort out some of this complicated multi-market broadcasty stuff. Here's the holiday Thump and Growl schedge. Kindly note that the two-part Best Of 2010 will air on both WBAI and WPKN. I'm not the boss o' you or nothin', but listening to both parts on both stations would be oddly redundant. Unless you have a very bad memory.

WBAI 99.5 FM in New York City, known for bringing the fringe to the middle of the dial, last week celebrated its 50th year on the air. This week, they launch a new schedule, including the re-institution of their eclectic mid-morning music strip, each weekday featuring a different freeform host. A name or two you'll recognize, others may be new to you. I'm especially hoping you'll tune in to one of these shows in particular. Thump and Growl. Tuesdays 10:00 to noon. Programmed and hosted by... Kimberly Massengill. (!) Same genre whiplash* mix I do on my WPKN show (which I'll continue to do at 'PKN, by the way). But the Manhattan studios will allow for more artist interviews and in-studio performances. And a Starbucks within walking distance.

I'm very excited about the other hosts in the strip, but I'd better let them do their own announcing.

I've wanted this time slot on this station--home to some of my radio heroes--since well before I moved to New York 14 years ago. So I'm pretty thrilled. And nervous. I hope you'll tune in. That'll sure help with the nervous bit. And with keeping this mofo on the air.

My first show is preempted (apropos?), so check me out beginning next Tuesday, the 23rd. And, y'know, proclaim it from the mountaintops. I'd appreciate that.

*Thanks for the words, Jason.

The Best of the Kimberly Massengill Show!

2010-09-25T15:03:00.011-04:00

Yup. Tune in Monday afternoon for a special fundraising installment, where I'll be offering The Best of the Kimberly Massengill Show, Volume 1 as a pledge premium. It's an awfully boss 2-disc set with personal faves culled from my show over the past year. (Happy Anniversary to me, by the way.) The artists who've generously given their fistbumps of approval to this compilation include:

Barry Adamson
Fred Eaglesmith
Jim Bianco
The Books
Jay Trainer Band
The Tall Pines
Reid Paley
Dave Cloud & the Gospel of Power
Mark Growden
That Handsome Devil
El Vez
Roughneck Jihad
Mr. Fist

Xavier Machault & Roberto Negro

Castanets
Andrew Vladeck
McGinty and White
Jon Spencer / Heavy Trash
Royce Campbell
Kaizers Orchestra
Wheedle's Groove
Pastor Pat Wright and The Total Experience Gospel Choir
Rupa and The April Fishes

Tune in, call in, and pledge to keep independent, listener-supported freeform radio alive. If you can't be in front of a radio or webstream, call anyway, dammit. At least to wish me a happy first anniversary!

Fat Essay Queries

2010-03-10T16:27:00.003-05:00

I've gotten some emails this week from folks who've said they heard me on WBAI in NYC on Monday (International Women's Day), talking about being fat and happy and saying the text from the essay will be posted on my website. Welp, this is the website, but the essay's long gone. Don't even have a copy of it anymore, I don't think. Sorry. The thing was written and produced for WBAI eight or ten years ago, as you might've guessed by the out-dated references to celebs who've had weight loss surgery and gotten thin. (They're now fat again.) Anyway, WBAI has re-aired it a half dozen or so times since, and that's what you're hearing.

The short update is as follows: Still fat. Still happy. Still saying fuck you to those who believe I have no right to be either. List of names available upon request.

(Not really, but that's not a bad idea...)

What is available upon request is a list of body image texts and fat rights activism resources. I'll be putting something together for those who've written me about the essay, and if you'd like the list as well, hit the contact link in the sidebar and tell me so.

And as always, thanks for your interest.
