Knock Knock Joke

 

Another midnight to 3am shift of entertaining Saturday night drunk drivers.  Tonight's musical features include the swamp sound extending from Louisiana to Houston with songs from Excello and Duke / Peacock labels.  We'll also give our recent Wild Jimmy Spruill feature an encore and explore a couple Danny Barker influenced songs from the Lost Bayou Ramblers and Esquerita.  Ah who am I kidding, I'll focus on that New Orleans sound of the 50s to 70s as I do every Saturday night.  And yes, there will be the interactive media set where you and I dance to dance instructional songs.  Call it hyperactive interactive media but it is sure more interesting than the other interactive media which offers some troll's comments about something they don't understand.   

 

While we're on the 50's version of modern media, we'll finish up the show with the 50' to 70's version of social media. Before social media like Facebook, the critical social media was, well, your front door.  Knocking on a front door was how you would announce your friendship intention and their reaction determined whether you had a friend.  Sometimes the door owner wouldn't answer, sometimes they would send someone else out to say they weren't home, sometimes (so I hear) they would actually answer the door and welcome your friendship.  Just like today's internet, there were all these creepy sales folks who would piggyback on then social media by doing door-to-door sales.  That's how we bought our encyclopedia and vacuum cleaner.  I still remember hiding in the stairway with my mom when other door-to-door sales goons would come knocking.  

 

With so much emotion at stake, there are plenty of songs about those front door moments when you're "friended or de-friended." 

Here's the archived show:

 

Oh yeah, Huey Long's early career included a long stint selling door-to-door.  Me?  Oh my facebook page has one friend - Rayvon Reid, a bounty hunter.
