Buffet vs The Robots (#50)

Hello hello!

Last month we had a robot themed show, which you can listen to here. This was inspired by Jenny’s work with Playful Leeds around the theme of #secretrobots – there may be more robotic fun to be had over the coming months, so check them out on Twitter!

2. BEASTIE BOYS – Intergalactic
3. MARNIE STERN – Year of the Glad
4. IMANI HEKIMA – The Robots’ Rebellion

A Nightmare Before Christmas

When Jenny Jet and I ventured to Pontins to experience Shellac’s Nightmare Before Christmas (an All tomorrow’s Parties festival) we did not anticipate that Pontins itself would be a real nightmare. So much so it actually makes Butlins look classy. Anyroad, we are rocking middle aged Mums and enjoyed a fabtastic weekend of rock and roll despite the severely lacking facilities, accommodation and blood stained duvets.

This month’s Buffet (broadcast on 1st December) was a combination of ATP tribute and twisted Christmas tunes, for it is that time of year. You can listen to the show here

And this is what we played:

1. Theme from Ski Sunday
2. RED FANG – Number 13
3. WIRE – Ex Lion Tamer
4. GRUFF RHYS – Slashed Wrists This Christmas
5. NINA NASTASIA – Ugly Face
6. GAY WITCH ABORTION – Prison Charm
7. MELT BANANA – White Christmas
8. SUFJAN STEVENS – Christmas Woman

Buffet #42 Record Club Special

Vinyl is making a comeback of sorts, though it ain’t necessarily cheap. Apparently you can buy the new Mumford and Sons LP for £23. Frankly you’d have to pay me a hell of a lot more than this to listen to it, but that’s me. Give me “The Beatles – Tijuana Style” for two quid from a charity shop any day.

This month Buffet shares its love for proper vinyl records with David from Shipley’s Record Club – a monthly event that is well worth a visit. And you can catch up with this particular broadcast here

Here’s what we played on the show:

1. LCD SOUNSYSTEM – Time to Get Away
2. JONATHAN RICHMAN – Egyptian Reggae
3. DUTCH UNCLES – Fester
4. SEX PISTOLS – God Save the Queen
5. GRAM PARSONS AND THE FLYING BURRITO BROTHERS – Honky Tonk Women
6. FIELD MUSIC – Terrapin
7. THE BREEDERS – Cannonball
8. TY SEGALL BAND – Tell Me What’s Inside Your Heart
9. HUSKER DU – Makes No Sense At All
10. MAHGEETAH – Wheels
11. THE CURE – Inbetween Days
12. BLONDIE – Union City Blue
13. MY BLOODY VALENTINE – To Here Knows When

See you next month!

Buffet’s Midnight Filth

We often feel frustrated by how many records can’t be played on our regular show because they’re loaded with F-Bombs. So BCB kindly gave us a midnight slot to unleash this filth, broadcast on 11th Sept at midnight. There is no ‘listen again’ feature – it was just too rude.

But you may be interested to know just what we played and how the swear box fills up, so here’s our tracklist:

1. BIKINI KILL – New Radio
2. KORN –  Y’all Wanna Single
3. MARTHA WAINRIGHT – Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole
4. CSS – Fuck Everything
5. THE BIRD AND THE BEE – Fucking Boyfriend
6. PJ HARVEY – Who the Fuck?
7. FATIMA MANSIONS – Shiny Happy People
8. DEATH GRIPS – Get Got
9. SHELLAC – Prayer to God
10. PLAN B – Lost My Way
11. tUnE-yArDs – Es-So
12. ELO – Oh No, Not Susan
13. ANTLERED MAN – Platoono of Uno
14. HOLY FUCK – SHTMTN
15. THE MOTHERFUCKERS – Sick and Wrong
16. SUPER FURRY ANIMALS – The Man Don’t Give a Fuck

We have not had time to put together the planned pie-chart of sweardom, but can confirm there were over 200 fucks (and variants) and at least 4 shits.

Get in touch if you’d like to hear it…

Love Team Buffet
