hi guys,
For those of u that don't know Alex Chilton of Big Star, Box Tops etc died on Wed.
I'm broadcasting an Alex Chilton retrospective on Saturday.
There's this House Rep Steve Cohen, who in the middle of a session did a short memoriam abt ALEX CHILTON!
It is mind blowing to hear him talk abt Chilton, Big Star, REM and the Replacements on the floor of congress.
Anyway i wanna play this clip on Sat. Does anyone know how to convert this youtube clip into a file that i can DL
(and then burn to a cd--- so it has to be something that can be played on a CD player not a computer box...if that makes sense)
EVen if u dont know how to do it u should check this clip out if u have ANY interest in Chilton
( and i bet this wont be a hot link, so u may have to copy and paste.
Man i sucha compu-dummy)
thanx
Love Terre*

I want to move to Tennessee just so I can vote for that guy.

That guy also gave the eulogy at Warren Zevon's funeral and attempted to join the Congressional Black Caucus (he represents a majority black district). Admirable.

Hearing him recite lines from "The Letter" while standing at that podium is kinda surreal but very charming.
I wonder what he had to say about Jay Reatard?

Hey, Terri -
I've been using this free program i got online where you copy and paste a URL from Youtube, and it rips it into an mp3 on your computer. It's super easy to use and has really come in handy swiping little sound clips for my show (and it definitely beats trying to futz with youtube while cuing 2 minute songs!). Here's the link to the program if you want to check it out:

I want to go to a show with Cohen. Do you think he's into Ted Leo? I'll get his ticket.
