Over The Edge Archive: Another UFO – Disclosure

Over The Edge – Another UFO – Disclosure
23 December 1999

Examples from the way the press USED to report this stuff, and numerous very convincing eyewitness reports, most by commercial airline pilots, which don’t leave much doubt that there sure is SOMETHING out there in the air lanes that doesn’t conform to anything that officialdom traditionally invokes to explain them. I like the pilot reports most of all because they are usually once or twice in a lifetime sightings and these people generally down to earth and know what they are looking at up there. The physical proximity of some of these air to air encounters is truly disconcerting and although we are assured this has happened a lot, few pilots ever come forward before retirement because their employers make it clear that their jobs are at stake if they do. Added to these are some of the approaches to government and the courts by various researchers who want to sue states and the federal government for not protecting us from invasion as promised by the Constitution, immunity for military witnesses and government employees in congressional hearings, establishing public petitions and legal affidavits from eyewitnesses among the public, as well as some interesting experiences and insights from an employee of the Ministry of Defense in the U.K. whose job it was to investigate UFO activity over England. At least they openly acknowledge the possibility…. Of course all this attempted seriousness is constantly choked off in the public sector by that darling of modern media, ridicule.

Over The Edge Archive – Thanksgiving Leftovers

Over The Edge – Thanksgiving Leftovers
25 November 1999

With various leftover tapes that never finished playing out on recent OTEs and two other Neglanders on board, this is a show with no plan at all. But it’s very good anyway with the Weatherman walking around the streets of Berkeley in the wee hours transmiting to us on his new Cherokee FR460 Family Radio, a coincidental appearance by “family radio” religious celebrity, Harold Camping, who does a lengthy stint taking calls concerning Bible misconceptions, People Like Us from a Thanksgivingless England on one of our Receptacle lines for most of the night, lots of bees, some Weatherman holiday family tapes from 1983, the latest club soda break, and anglo american group singing to end it all. Lots of leftover fun.

Over The Edge Archive – The Happy Fingers Method

Over The Edge – The Happy Fingers Method
December 1998

People Like Us (here from England), Wobbly, and Peter Conheim join me for a live mix generally spinning around the cut up soundtrack of “The 5000 Fingers Of Dr. T.” After interviewing PLU and her manager about her music and her new Hollywood movie, “The Tantrum,” we all begin pushing our collective buttons with all our happy fingers for 3 hours of solid irritainment. Beyond the distinctive rantings of Hans Conried and his gaggle of little piano prisoners throughout, there’s no point in even trying to identify it all – just a lot of found stuff from various mediums put together for the fun of weaving pseudo musical fabric out of bits and pieces of sound. A concentrated musical collage for modern radio.

Over The Edge – The Sound of Austria II
October 1998

More recordings from “The Sound Of Music” made on and off stage, (counting the money, etc.) and big pieces of the final show in Linz. The attempted Julie Andrews interview, “Oh how happy we will be when we learn our harmony,” receptacle input, participant discussions about how this performance should be done… and how it was done! More Cha Cha, more food, more beer, NPR, the RIAA, underground Austrian elf land from a miniature train, the best parts of show three, and new mixing with material used and left out. Thanks to Staalplaat and Time’s Up for creating this get together – People Like Us, Music Toerist, Barbed, Negativland.

Over The Edge – The Sound of Austria I
September 1998

The first OTE broadcast of the live, 7 person jams at the Ars Electronica festival in Linz, Austria in which Negativland, Barbed, People Like Us, and Music Toerist participated. Our theme and title was “The Sound Of Music” and we all played it together, and all kinds of other sound related material, for three nights. The first of these two OTE broadcasts is five hours and covers the first two shows (The first show, subtitled “the Sound Connection” was done as a “radio show” from stage for a live broadcast on Austrian State radio FM4, Radio Kunst who also provided Receptacle Phone Access!, and the internet webcast. Contains a lengthy live review of “The End Of Music” by Crosley Bendix, plus some new mixes of stuff both in and left out of the Austrian mixes. This 5 hour show includes much music from the first two shows, along with a lot of tapes made off stage about our trip and being in Austria, and some live mixing of all this material for this radio show.

Over The Edge Archive – Fake Bacon Breakfast Loop III
June 1998

This final in a series, like the other two, is being sent live to London, England via our semi- phone fidelity teletour box to a temporary art thing radio station, Resonance FM. It’s a loopy breakfast thing because it airs from 8 to 11 am in England. Lots of good piggy mixing between Negativland’s “Smelly Water” (a studio remix/collaboration of/with Chumbawamba’s “Drip, Drip, Drip”), Bob and Ray’s “House of Toast,” a report by Raymond Bien, President of General Injectables, a Weatherman club soda break, there’s hog fat all over the highway, a telephone tape exchange with People Like Us, Dave Emory expounds on a crucial assassination link in the SRL show he witnessed this evening, the Stupid Song, Orson Welles and sincerity, “traffic, weather, changing the refrigerator light bulb, “So tired” loops, and loops that go on forever…

Over The Edge – Fake Bacon Breakfast Loop I
June 1998

The Weatherman, Wobbly, and Dave Emory join Bud Goode for a highly technical and receptacle content infused show. Some discussion on the Teletour concept, as this show was apparently simulcast via phone line to UK radio station Resonance FM.

The Weatherman’s tired. People Like Us phones in. The recurring ‘F-You’ guy keeps calling. Includes riveting episode of What Are We Supposed To Think Now with Tilt Reptilian & Dave Emory.  Random show note: The original donor of Don’s ’78 Nova calls in at around the 35 minute mark.

Over The Edge Archive – OTE in Concert

Over The Edge – OTE in Concert
8 (and 9) April 1998
https://vimeo.com/20861241 (thanks to Puzzling Evidence)

 This show occurred the night before a live performance in San Francisco in which the same people presented “OTE In Concert.” Actually a rehearsal of sorts, this show is divided into three sets – Wobbly and Wetgate play first, then PLU and Don, then all mix together for the remainder of the show. People Like Us (Vicki Bennett) comes all the way from England with a MiniDisc full of samples, Wobbly wiggles the keyboards, and Wetgate runs film loops through multiple film projectors for, in this case, audio only movies. Tellytubbies, Clowns and Ballerinas, McDonalds for girls, torture, and “fuck Lycra” are among our subjects.

Over The Edge Archive: Advertising Secrets

Over The Edge – Advertising Secrets
March 1998

Beginning with Dr. Norway’s hosting of a Howland Island tourism travelog being tested at focus groups inside One World Advertising, this show cuts up a lot of “DisPepsi syndrome” and Happy Heroes in a lot of revisited roles. A little Roger Waters, “Great Moments” from channel 5, Kaiser Steel makes a comedy record, Lot’s of inventive receptacle including transAtlantic calls from People Like Us in England, (by now, a habit she’s willing to pay for) and more Howland travelog throughout. The price is right. Only infinity left!

Over The Edge Archive – London Music Falling Down I

Over The Edge – London Music Falling Down I
11 April 1996

On secret orders from Mr. Friday, I made a trip to London and returned with several hand picked radio consultants from the BBC. All these actual English speaking people are here from London to make the Netweb better, elevate programming, and make OTE actually tops in no-top broadcasting. Hosted by famous American, Earthworm Jim, everybody’s on mike commenting on form, style, American quirks, and tea, dunking in and out of a nice, busy mix of all British voices, actualities, disk jockey pranks, Lance Dann’s BBC radio production, a BBC quiz, Radio 1, 2, 3, & 4, Music, News, Weather, and hot tea from the Emerald Sea. And a certain amount of dialect gibberish. A sometimes raucous, sometimes touching tribute to London and it’s music, past and present. Mix includes parts of Scanner, Stock, Hausen & Walkman, People Like Us, Barbed, Art Of Noise, Neil Innes, Crass, Vivian Stanshall, Deaf School, Siouxsie, Marianne, Tom, and more.
