Title: Dear Best Show Vault
Post by: ian on December 05, 2007, 12:30:44 PM: For the love of Pete, throw Tom's ripping of I'm Not There up on the bloggery-doo.

Please?
Title: Re: Dear Best Show Vault
Post by: Martin on December 05, 2007, 01:22:12 PM: A very good idea.

Also, I apologize for the lack of updates lately - I blame real world stuff like work and family matters. But we will be back, don't you worry!

Post by: ian on December 05, 2007, 01:28:54 PM: Definitely no need for apologies, your blog has been the only successful way I have found to sell people on the show. You can't do it with whole episodes or even the albums, which I guess are daunting to the uninitiated. The mp3s are perfect doses.

Post by: Martin on December 17, 2007, 05:07:45 PM: It's no I'm Not There rant, but I just made an update to the Vault. It's one of the best bits of 2007 - when Philly Boy Roy visited the studio.

It's a quick-and-dirty update, but we'll be back with more later in the week.

Seconded!

Post by: Martin on December 21, 2007, 08:29:34 AM: You guys are so nice - thank you.

There's a double-whammy update at the Vault today. The previously requested I'm Not There rant is up, as is this week's equally astute Juno review.

Final 2007 update. We'll be back with more in 2008.

Post by: Dorvid Barnas on December 23, 2007, 03:39:10 PM: Dear Vault,

In honor of recent legal proceedings that will hopefully vindicate the West Memphis 3 (http://www.wm3.org/splash.php), I would like to request the following:

August 24, 2004: Jon Glaser And NBA Star Mehmet Okur Talk About Their West Memphis 3 Benefit.
Title: Re: Dear Best Show Vault
Post by: furnstein on January 11, 2008, 09:23:34 AM: Two things that I'd love to get on the Vault:

-The original call where "Get Ready To Meet My Little Friend" was offered as a top movie quote. This is one of the most magical moments from the last year.

-The August 29, 2006 call where PBR reviews Invincible. "We was doin' Da Butt down the aisles."
Title: Re: Dear Best Show Vault
Post by: JonFromMaplewood on January 11, 2008, 10:01:03 AM: A coworker of mine recently delivered this variation on the Scarface quotation: "Prepare to meet my little friend."

What is it about that line that is so hard for people to replicate? Nobody has that trouble with "I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Bartles and Jaymes."
Title: Re: Dear Best Show Vault
Post by: Martin on January 11, 2008, 05:43:21 PM: We'll have something for youse guys next week.

SECONDED! I told my kid about this bit. For some reason 9 year olds are really into Scarface? I want to play it for him, please.

thanks, and great job on the vault!!!

I keep hearing it mentioned but the 5/9/06 show (when the call happened, according to http://www.friendsoftom.com/fotpedia/index.php?title=I-Ron's_Reggae_Challenge (http://www.friendsoftom.com/fotpedia/index.php?title=I-Ron's_Reggae_Challenge) ) isn't available in the archives.

It's funny, but it's very short.

Did I-ron ever call back in? I think he did but I can't remember when - in that second call, I recall he said something about "I-ron gettin' i-ree!" which isn't in the first call, I don't think.

I'm almost certain there has only been one I-ron call. In the 5/9/06 call he did tell Ted to "Keep it I-ree!", which may be what you are referring to above.

Post by: John M. on January 15, 2008, 10:02:05 PM: Thanks for the updates, Crimestick! Also, as noted by Dorvid, and on a totally unrelated tip, I'm glad that the West Memphis 3 might finally get a fair shake after all these years.

Post by: furnstein on January 18, 2008, 01:44:42 PM: Thanks, Crimestick. I'm excited about having this Roy call, it might be my favorite ever.

Post by: Gregory on January 23, 2008, 04:58:54 PM: Thanks for the update Crimestick, that Bob call is one of my favorites from the summer.

If possible, I'd like to request Jimmy Crespo calling in to talk to Mac from Nov. 29, 2005.

Post by: buffcoat on February 06, 2008, 11:28:49 AM: I would never quibble with the Best Show Vault, but there is a promise in one of the entries from last month to upload the recent Gorch visit to the studio.

Crimestick, I would love to hear that bit.

(The batch uploads of Best Show stuff in the DL section sort of made me question the need for the Vault, but then I remembered that we get a fair amount of non-FOT visitors too.)
