Radiohead sneezes, the Internet sees crazy spikes in traffic. That goes for all your favorite music sites, for all your favorite Radiohead prank sites, and yes even for the Old Folk’s Review music series. Because as annoying as what’s-her-name (I know her name) is, like you’re not going to watch what the Breakfast At Sulimay’s folks have to say about “These Are My Twisted Words.” Right? Right. (Also they take on Amanda Blank’s crotch rap, and also take it easy on it because she’s from Philly like they are, and apparently they’re all friends? I would buy Joe’s bran muffins for a week if I could be at one of those hang sessions.) Re: Radiohead, Bill gets in a servicable zing (“What’s he saying? I have a hearing problem, thank god”) and Joe continues to be the best.

Ann says all the wrong info about the Radiohead song, but for once you can’t blame her — seems like a producer read the Internet wrong. Here’s “Harry Patch (In Memory Of),” Curves.

  1. if old people dont like radiohead then i dont like old people

    Now they need to go review some Elvis Costello.

  3. I hope Joe is the keynote speaker at SXSW 2010

  4. Nice one, Radiohead is dead anyway.

  5. I thought Joe died on me there, for a second haha.

  6. “Who’s Elvis Costello?”

    Man, Joe is too good for these people.

    Breakfast at Sulimay’s starring Joe and those other two.

  7. that show needs more Joes.

  8. you can tell that none of these guys want to be here anymore (with the possible exception of joe). let them go listen to their sinatra records and watch golden girls/wheel of fortune

  9. Joe carries this show!

  10. I don’t care how old you are, if you’re setting out to do reviews of music, you ought to know who Elvis Costello is (and I say this as a person who doesn’t even like him).

    Looks like Ann discovered Hot Topic and has decided to follow 30 Seconds to Mars on tour.

  12. Taylor   |   Posted on Aug 26th, 2009

    I like the blatant “Curves” plug. Trying to cash in on Ann’s annoying-ness?

  13. From a distance it looks like Ann has fully tattooed arms.

    • DavidDR  |   Posted on Aug 28th, 2009

      Those aren’t tattoos my friend. It’s varicose.

      • even better, it those cheezy fake tattoo sleeves for kiddies who want to punks for halloween!
        i didn’t realize it was acceptable to wear those around, but clearly Ann knows what’s up, she’s got that Philly sound

  14. Quick recap: Bill said the funniest thing when he mentioned they could use RH’s music to torture people… Radiohead appears to be Ann’s Kryptonite… Someone as old as Joe recognizes genius when he hears it… And reflection of scary bearded-guy on mirror ruined my breakfast.

    i wasnt sure it was possible for me to hate ann anymore than i already did. but this episode just confirms it.

    joe looked like he almost fell asleep during “these are my twisted words.” im just hoping he doesnt pull a ted kennedy on us anytime soon. hes the only reason i watch.

  16. I wish Joe were my grandpa!

    “TTFN!” What the kids are saying these days!

  17. anon  |   Posted on Aug 26th, 2009

    Wow, fuck those two.
    Joe is awesome though.

  18. They need more people like Joe!

    Ann is trying to turn back time. I think one of her grandchildren called her and told her she was a hit in the indie blogs. It’s getting to her head.

  19. phillyboi  |   Posted on Aug 26th, 2009

    “who’s elvis costello?” “he belongs to my church” HAHAHAAA and if you know philly, that’s not a curves plug…that’s just her shirt.

  20. It’s ironic considering that Radiohead is old…
    and highly overrated too.

  21. These people are one step shy from writing for Pitchfork.

  22. Dave  |   Posted on Aug 27th, 2009

    I think this gimmick is nearing it’s expiration date.

  23. Dave  |   Posted on Aug 27th, 2009

    Its, crazy internet grammar trolls.

  24. This video was pretty funny.
    Apparently even old people think Radiohead is boring elevator music.
    I love Joe.

  25. I wonder if Ann knows she’s, like, eighty years old.

  26. these guys are awesome…and surprisingly Joe really seems to have some good insight musically.

  27. Bish  |   Posted on Aug 27th, 2009

    Ugh. I just died a little inside. Both tracks are lame examples of what the artists do, and both ‘reviews’ are tentative “I don’t like it much but it’s probably quite good really because I don’t really know what I’m talking about” rambles, from three people who shouldn’t actually be allowed to listen to new music.

  28. I don’t like Bill. what a dick. he rolled his eyes at joe. i’d smack Bill for his disrespect.

  29. I agree w/old peeps.

  30. I would totally goto a Radiohead gig with Joe and I’d even let Ann push the wheel chair.

  31. stephanie   |   Posted on Aug 27th, 2009

    I fucking hate ann. always.

  32. JollyGreenGiant  |   Posted on Aug 27th, 2009

    You gotta give them old people credit for staying awake all the way through a Radiohead song. I’m only 27 and I have trouble staying awake all the way through a Radiohead song.

  33. ryan  |   Posted on Aug 28th, 2009

    joe is rad because he’s the only one who actually takes the time to listen to the song for five seconds before making a determination (where are these oldies attention spans??). and what the hell is ann wearing? she looks like a veritable bus stop straggler.

  34. ann really is my bugaboo, as the man said in the newspaper

  35. chris  |   Posted on Aug 28th, 2009

    ta ta…?
    joe is probably twice as old as bill and has a better memory

  36. thepolemarch  |   Posted on Aug 29th, 2009

    Anne hung a sleeveless dress up on a sleeved up lifestyle.

  37. adrienne  |   Posted on Aug 29th, 2009

    You go, Joe!

  38. Ann looks like a waitress at Waffle House.

  39. Joe sounds like the old guy that speaks about Coney Island on Godspeed You! Black Emperor’s Lift You Skinny Fists…

  40. i will now reach out to old folks home for freelancers… actually i do care what my granny thinks about music… great story!

    These are my twisted words bores me

    “I’m a little underwhelmed right now” sums up my feelings every time I hear Radiohead’s stupid bullshit.
