	6:09pm davefromtoronto: i'm looking at a Benny Binion's Horseshoe Club postcard on my corkboard as i listen!
	🎸 ♥ 6:09pm dale: hey now. this is as good as being there. probably better actually.
	6:11pm Listener Robert: Most oleaginous Las Vegas audio promotion was a series of radio ads a few years ago for time shares. The ads were done as live interaction between a somewhat prominent show biz lady whose name I forgot and show m.c. George Noory. Took me a while to realize they were ads for time shares, because all they talked about was current shows in Las Vegas.
	🎸 ♥ 6:12pm dale: i have a hand painted neck tie that says wilbur clark's desert inn on it. photos.app.goo.gl...
	6:13pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Lights Of Las Vegas" by "Rod Rogers & the Travis ... The Dunes...The Sands...The Hour of Crap...all Vegas landmarks. Frank, Sammy, and Don-O!
	6:13pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @6:11 Timeshares is the next lower level of Hell!
	6:14pm Dean: Was last in LV in 1976 for a Yes concert. I was underage, but we managed to run around the one-arm bandits, and I netted $5. I also remember standing in a parking lot where a woman drove by announcing, "Blow jobs, $15!"
	6:14pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @6:13 But those ads definitely belong on your show!
	6:15pm Mr Fab: ↳ dale @6:12 that's a beauty. Don't think I would wear it - just hang it up on display.
	6:15pm Don-O: ↳ dale @6:12 When I done living the broke life style, I must update my Vegas woredrobe!!
	🎸 ♥ 6:18pm dale: ↳ Mr Fab @6:15 yeah, sits in an acid free paper sleeve yada yada.....really just gently folded and in a small suitcase out of light. i should sell stuff before i die and my wife takes it to the goodwill.
	6:21pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @6:14 I got a few old and new ads on todays show.
	6:23pm Dean: "Everyone is happy, friendly, except for the Mafia."
	🎸 ♥ 6:23pm dale: fun and enjoyment are two things?
	6:24pm Dean: "Shapely": good on them for keeping it gender neutral. But then "showgirls."
	🎸 ♥ 6:25pm dale: who is the narrator? sounds like a very young don pardo.

	6:26pm Don-O: Good Hello, Dead and dale!!
	6:26pm davefromtoronto: let's not talk about old vegas...

	6:27pm Don-O: ↳ Dean @6:27 I got that book in paperback form!
	6:27pm Dean: On the staff of Flip Side fanzine, I was in fact Dean Ded [sic].
	6:28pm davefromtoronto: fast forward to tourist homeboy pimping his honey out on the strip
	6:28pm Dean: Mine's paperback, too. So is Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture.
	6:28pm Don-O: ↳ davefromtoronto @6:26 You must be related to Alan Whicker
	🎸 ♥ 6:29pm WR: ah, just noticed that my deciding not to outline my minimal LV experiences also stopped from writing a hello. Hello.
	6:29pm Don-O: I had my own Las Vegas book library, but that house fire took care of that.........
	6:30pm Don-O: ↳ WR @6:29 Good BOO!, WR!!
	6:30pm Listener Robert: ...or the drinks are watered.
	🎸 ♥ 6:30pm dale: saw a youtube of some guy going to vegas to buy a 70s car, one of those car resurrection channels. they were driving down an avenue and it was tent city - is there that much homelessness there?
	6:31pm davefromtoronto: ↳ Don-O @6:28 lol maybe
	6:32pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Las Vegas" by "Mister Sinatra" For you Mister Fab!!
	6:32pm davefromtoronto: number one rule for serious gamblers is "don't drink"
	6:33pm Don-O: ↳ dale @6:30 Not so much when I saw there in October. Though when you get yelled at only 3 homless people, it is a normal day anywhere!
	6:33pm davefromtoronto: i'm no serious gambler - hey now!
	6:35pm Don-O: I'm barely a gambler as I'm too distracted by the city itself. This Urban Rat has spoken!
	6:38pm davefromtoronto: been there once. very surreal and very fun.
	6:44pm CC: Truly haunting track! Nice find…
	6:45pm Don-O: ↳ CC @6:44 Goof Hello, CC! Vegas in slo-mo!
	6:46pm davefromtoronto: it is haunting...
	🎸 ♥ 6:49pm dale: ↳ davefromtoronto @6:33 were you dave from etobicoke?
	🎸 ♥ 6:49pm dale: ↳ Song: "ad" by "Fashion Show Mall" pretty lazy jingle writer.
	🎸 ♥ 6:50pm Asheville Jon: what a bunch of CRAP!!! Hi Don-O and all other crapsters!
	6:50pm davefromtoronto: ↳ dale @6:49 no i've always been davefromtoronto
	6:51pm CC: Hello Don-O, hello all. Thanks for the cool show. Always love a challenging listen…Las Vegas is one of the most exciting anomalies in existence!
	6:51pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Did the Landmark's Restaurant or Bar Revolve?" by... i did visit the top of the Landmark, which looked like a Space-Age missle silo, and it was not revolving. But it may have had an off-day.
	🎸 ♥ 6:52pm dale: ↳ davefromtoronto @6:50 ah. well, say hey to the old spaghetti factory for me.
	6:52pm Don-O: ↳ CC @6:51 Indeed!
	6:53pm davefromtoronto: ↳ dale @6:52 ha don't even know if that's still around!
	6:53pm davefromtoronto: the cn tower's revolving restaurant is though.
	6:55pm davefromtoronto: is there some sort of conspiracy theory involving the landmark restaurant? what's marc wagner's problem?
	6:57pm Don-O: ↳ davefromtoronto @6:55 He's a bit obsessed with the Landmark. Still, this city thrives on money, A/C and urban ledgends!
	6:57pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Las Vegas" by "Mister Sinatra" I was wondering what the hell is going on with this guy? Turns out he has autism. No wonder he has that "special needs" style. Most def gotta check out this guy further. The Wesley Willis of lounge?
	6:58pm Mr Fab: ↳ davefromtoronto @6:55 Well, Howard Hughes lived as a hermit in the top floor, I think?
	6:58pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:58 That was the Desert Inn.....
	6:59pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @6:58 Ah. But I think he owned The Landmark?
	6:59pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:59 Yup, he did and managed to open it up.
	7:00pm davefromtoronto: it's starting to make sense...
	🎸 ♥ 7:01pm WR: ↳ Song: "Rage Text" by "Vegas Poker Nomad" this guy is so excited about "rage text"
	7:03pm Dean: The city also thrives on imported water.
	🎸 ♥ 7:05pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Rage Text" by "Vegas Poker Nomad" What is this crap?
	🎸 ♥ 7:06pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "Rage Text" by "Vegas Poker Nomad" What is this? Crap?
	7:07pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @7:05 The Adventures Of The Nomads Of Vegas Poker!
	🎸 ♥ 7:07pm WR: ↳ Dean @7:03 what large city doesn't "import water"
	🎸 ♥ 7:08pm Roberto: ↳ Roberto @7:06 What, is this crap?
	7:08pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @7:08 .?
	7:09pm Dean: Sure, but not for the per capita golf courses ratio.
	7:10pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Going Back To Las Vegas" by "The Pleasure Barons" Great (short-lived) band: Mojo Nixon, Country Dick Montana, Dave Alvin.
	7:10pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Going Back To Las Vegas" by "The Pleasure Barons" Mojo Nixon. A subtle man.
	7:20pm Dean: That wasn't a commercial. It was a heartfelt recommendation. I'm heading soon to Austin, TX, and I'd love to hear folks' suggestions for record shops in that musical town.
	7:20pm Mr Fab: Mrs Fab & I were married by Elvis at the Graceland Chapel. Good luck to em!
	7:23pm Dean: I bet you were married on the same my missus and I got hitched in LA. We wanted Elvis, but he was otherwise occupied.
	7:23pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Wedding In Las Vegas" by "Rod Rogers & the Travis... a song-poem album re-released on CD?!

	🎸 ♥ 7:25pm dale: strip love nest....
	7:25pm davefromtoronto: frank jr is the equivalent of hank williams jr.
	7:28pm Dean: "It's not Barstow."
	🎸 ♥ 7:29pm Roberto: My wife and I got married by Elvis, too. Except he was disguised as a Rockland County rabbi.
	🎸 ♥ 7:29pm dale: ↳ davefromtoronto @7:25 thankfully desi arnaz jr. didn't follow in his father's footseps.
	7:32pm Dean: Of the two, Wright is the most poised comic.
	7:34pm Dean: Capitalism is marvelous.
	🎸 ♥ 7:34pm dale: for that money i'll bet it's free champale.
	7:35pm davefromtoronto: complimentary bedbugs with every room
	7:37pm Dean: Pretty sure I've only encountered bedbugs in Florence. But the view of Il Duomo, OMG it was SO worth it!
	7:37pm Don-O: ↳ davefromtoronto @7:35 ....and you get to name them, too!
	7:38pm Dean: I don't count it as crap, but Cocteau Twins' "Heaven and Las Vegas" seems a propos.
	7:40pm Dean: Ooooh, a pyramid scheme!
	🎸 ♥ 7:42pm dale: is this george speaking?
	7:43pm Dean: "Red light and blew"?
	7:43pm Dean: Vegas has a sizeable public library system. I'd head there.

	🎸 ♥ 7:53pm Roberto: It's the hour of CRAPS! Get it?
	7:54pm Dean: No, Roberto. Explain, please.
	7:55pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mr Fab @7:51 Ah, '79. Makes sense.
	7:55pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @7:53 Eeeekk Eeek! Eeek!
	7:55pm Dean: Wow, this is all later than the last time I set foot there (not counting a layover at the airport once).
	7:58pm Dean: Vivala Svegas
	7:59pm Don-O: Believe it or not....we're at the half way point of this weeks show! A tad longer this time!!

	8:33pm Kat in the chat: Belated Good Hello! Looks like I have a lot of Vegas Crap to catch up on later.
	♥ 8:34pm Barno in Akron: How do you do, fellow kids?
	8:35pm davefromtoronto: that martin mull comment made me feel so old!
	8:35pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @8:33 Hey, Kat! Don't mind me paying the price for this 4 hour Vegas tome. Sugger alone, shall we?
	♥ 8:36pm Barno in Akron: ↳ davefromtoronto @8:35 You're not alone, davefromtoronto
	8:36pm Don-O: ↳ Barno in Akron @8:34 Good Crappy Hello, Barno!!
	8:50pm Dean: This isn't Dakus or Hall & Oates, is it? The soprano is terrific.
	8:55pm Dean: Oh, wait. This is Acid Jazz...?!
	8:57pm Dean: The soprano was Annie Golden, and I have no idea why after I returned and restarted the stream it shifted to GTDR.
	9:01pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Hookers For Liberace" by "RIAA" Oh no, what knucklehead would produce a song like THIS?!
	9:01pm davefromtoronto: that's a waste of a hooker
	9:01pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @9:01 Someone who was drunk and/or bored....

	9:08pm davefromtoronto: thanks so much for the show! it was super fun and weird!
	9:09pm Dean: Ralph Waldo Emerson, motherfuckers!
	🎸 ♥ 9:10pm univac: Really enjoying the show Don-O. Thanks!
	9:11pm Don-O: ↳ univac @9:10 Thanks univac! Welp, we got one more hour of this insanity. Good luck to us all!!
	9:16pm davefromtoronto: this show would've been great to drop acid to
	9:18pm davefromtoronto: on second thought...
	9:21pm davefromtoronto: good lord...
	9:21pm Mr Fab: I don’t know if the concept behind this sequence came through, but the idea was that America is based on puritanism and, at the same time, freedom. Two contradictory notions at the heart of the country that are battling it out in Las Vegas. Guess who wins?
	9:22pm Listener Robert: ↳ Mr Fab @9:21 Lawyers. They always win.
	9:23pm Mr Fab: ↳ Listener Robert @9:22 Haha! Yeah, that would have been a great punchline.
	9:24pm Dean: Were the Puritans anti-freedom? I have yet to read Perry Miller's The New England Mind.
	9:25pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Part 2: The Battle of Las Vegas" by "RIAA" Jesus Vampires!
	9:28pm Mr Fab: They were pretty much anti-everything except going to church. There’s the old joke about puritanism is the creeping fear that someone, somewhere is having a good time.
	9:29pm Dean: I'm not sure that's true. Again, I need to consult Miller.
	🎸 ♥ 9:34pm WR: stepping away from screens. Thanks for the LV experience crap Don-O, perversely enjoyable. Laters all.
	9:39pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "I'll Take Las Vegas" by "Mike Hudson" This one is for you, Me. Fab! This is the track started this whole Vegas track for me.
	9:40pm Don-O: ↳ WR @9:34 Thanks for stopping by, WR!
	9:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @9:39 One of my fave thrift-store finds.
	9:41pm davefromtoronto: the irony is vegas wouldn't take him
	9:44pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Sketchy (and Awesome) Vegas Shopping Center Just ... I actually dig this place! There's even a mini-mini mall at the back called New Orleans Square, who's address is on Liberace!
	9:47pm Don-O: Another Vegas urban fact that nobody cares about, there are TWO New Orleans Squares; the mini-mini mall and a appartment complex on Maryland Parkway a few blacks away.
	9:48pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Sketchy (and Awesome) Vegas Shopping Center Just ... This was from a couple of years ago before they started rebranding the Center....
	9:53pm Mr Fab: All-time classic episode Don-O. And thx for sweatin’ to my oldies!
	9:54pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Sketchy (and Awesome) Vegas Shopping Center Just ... From Las Vegas to foot fetish clubs! That's The Hour Of Crap fer ya!!
	🎸 ♥ 9:56pm univac: That was something...
	🎸 ♥ 9:56pm univac: Yay, Austin!

	🎸 ♥ 6:09pm dale: hey now. this is as good as being there. probably better actually.
	6:11pm Listener Robert: Most oleaginous Las Vegas audio promotion was a series of radio ads a few years ago for time shares. The ads were done as live interaction between a somewhat prominent show biz lady whose name I forgot and show m.c. George Noory. Took me a while to realize they were ads for time shares, because all they talked about was current shows in Las Vegas.
	🎸 ♥ 6:12pm dale: i have a hand painted neck tie that says wilbur clark's desert inn on it. photos.app.goo.gl...

	6:14pm Dean: Was last in LV in 1976 for a Yes concert. I was underage, but we managed to run around the one-arm bandits, and I netted $5. I also remember standing in a parking lot where a woman drove by announcing, "Blow jobs, $15!"
	6:14pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @6:13 But those ads definitely belong on your show!
	6:15pm Mr Fab: ↳ dale @6:12 that's a beauty. Don't think I would wear it - just hang it up on display.

	7:20pm Mr Fab: Mrs Fab & I were married by Elvis at the Graceland Chapel. Good luck to em!

	9:18pm davefromtoronto: on second thought...
	9:21pm davefromtoronto: good lord...
	9:21pm Mr Fab: I don’t know if the concept behind this sequence came through, but the idea was that America is based on puritanism and, at the same time, freedom. Two contradictory notions at the heart of the country that are battling it out in Las Vegas. Guess who wins?
	9:22pm Listener Robert: ↳ Mr Fab @9:21 Lawyers. They always win.
	9:23pm Mr Fab: ↳ Listener Robert @9:22 Haha! Yeah, that would have been a great punchline.

	9:25pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Part 2: The Battle of Las Vegas" by "RIAA" Jesus Vampires!
	9:28pm Mr Fab: They were pretty much anti-everything except going to church. There’s the old joke about puritanism is the creeping fear that someone, somewhere is having a good time.

	9:44pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Sketchy (and Awesome) Vegas Shopping Center Just ... I actually dig this place! There's even a mini-mini mall at the back called New Orleans Square, who's address is on Liberace!
