No show next week either, or so says sparkiepop on the Comedy Zone message board.

I guess Tom couldn't take it anymore.

Wait.  Now, I'm kinda selfishly happy because:

(1) The imperial stormtrooper photo posted by Jason made me laugh uncontrollably.
(2) I just became a Steve McQueen With A Skull Face!

I can only assume Tom is camping out for Mamma Mia tickets.

Hope all's well!

Maybe he's camping out for tickets to be in the studio audience for this week's Prank Patrol.

then he would have been in the studio - no excuse!

There goes my Wednesday.

I, for one, am not surprised; you know Hard Hat Radio cannot broadcast on the birthday of both Beck and Toby Keith. Speaking of, isn't it about time that Beck release his Chris Gaine's style alter-ego album? I vote for "Zardoz Sings".

Perhaps Tor Halvorsen got to him.  That was certainly an ominous call two weeks ago.

Well at least now we know why Tom's gone for the next 2 weeks from Prank Patrol straight from Andy Breakman's mouth was that Tom's working on the 100th Episode of Monk in LA. HURRAY!

Tom wrote the episode about the TV detective, which featured a 100th epsiode party, didn't he?

I think Tom should have an on-air birthday party for Dave. Kinda like the one for Petey a few years back, except instead of Master Shake calling in to wish a happy birthday it'd have to be, like, Robert Fripp or something.

Right?

If he could get Robert Fripp to call in, I would be willing to wait a week. It's in your court, Tom!

They should have Dave fly in and perform in a band like they did with Petey. It would be named Von Knoxville.

does anyone know for sure whether or not there's going to be a show tomorrow night?  if not, i'm gonna go see a movie screening, but if there IS one, i wouldn't dare miss it, as i am going through withdrawal still from last week.

Did I not mention that my 50th birthday was coming up?

WFMU station manager, Ken, mentioned on last week's Seven Second Delay that Tom was on the west coast doing stuff for Monk--which of course translates to, "I took the week off!! I deserve it!! How daaaaare you!!"

Maybe we can have a virtual birthday cake on the chat tomorrow night for DFK? We'll write something prog-rock-y on it.

after 2 weeks absence, i would settle for brian ferry, but then again, it isn't my birthday...

It's listed on the WFMU schedule, so I'd assume there's a show tonight.

I need me some best show tonight.  The s.o. and I are down to one car and that car is ten years old, fucked up and in the shop.  Plus I got my teeth cleaned today which, thanks to my shit-shape gums, is always excruciatingly painful.  Gotta floss three times a day I guess.

Ive got all this left over orthodontic equipment in my mouth, so I used to hate flossing, and I avoided it like the plague until I found this miracle floss:
