	7:22pm geezerette: Can hear that a live show would've been a lot of fun, positive energy!

	7:23pm geezerette: Hey gang!
	♥ 7:23pm Gary: factandfictionfilms.com...
	7:25pm geezerette: Thanks Gary, great pic! So cute.
	♥ 7:31pm coelacanth: greetings Gary and Bodeghisattvas
	7:32pm steve: good evening Gary and friends
	♥ 7:33pm Gary: Steve! Coelacanth!
	7:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I wonder if Gary knows this is a Black Sabbath tune. :))
	♥ 7:49pm Gary: Gary is generally ignorant and, in this special case, also ignorant
	7:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You bring us outstanding rarities - & you are sometimes uninformed of mainstream Rockist stuff - it's quite charming.
	♥ 7:53pm Gary: It's not that I didn't listen to a lot of it when I was young, but I guess maybe not as much as I thought I had :)
	7:54pm steve: great music for soldering as always
	7:55pm Dean: There are filthy sex acts?
	♥ 7:56pm coelacanth: Gary, it's funny to think of Gary as ignorant when you are so immeasurably informed.
	7:56pm ndbob: excellent show Gary! - catch the rest on the archive
	♥ 8:00pm Gary: Dean!
	♥ 8:01pm Gary: Night, Bob!
	8:02pm Dean: These tracks have been uniformly kick-butt. I'm thinking more than a couple of these bands owes a debt to X-Ray Spex.
	♥ 8:04pm coelacanth: ...and maybe babes in toyland?
	♥ 8:04pm Gary: Oh, most certainly, Dean ... Hang on the Box name checks Bikini Kill in one song. Here's an article I wrote about the band a couple of years ago: burningambulance.com...
	♥ 8:04pm Gary: Definitely heard some Babes in Toyland in the last set, Coelacanth
	♥ 8:05pm hyde: i love Babes in Toyland!
	♥ 8:06pm Gary: Hyde! I saw them in Minneapolis when I lived there
	♥ 8:07pm Gary: @Hyde, you're gonna have to come back and listen to the Gỗ Lim set later
	8:08pm Dean: Did you write this, too? https://burningambulance.com/2012/07/04/the-avengers/
	♥ 8:09pm Gary: No, sadly, I don't know enough about The Avengers ... gotta get some of their albums
	8:10pm Dean: My wife works with Penelope. I should forward it, in the event she didn't see it.
	♥ 8:11pm hyde: @Gary i saw Babes in Toyland in Cambridge a couple times. good stuff. sad i missed the Gỗ Lim set! will revisit....
	♥ 8:12pm Gary: Did the Babes wear their old torn-up wedding dresses?
	8:12pm geezerette: Love "Your Everything Kills Me". HotBT are great!
	8:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Diane Kamikaze had an interview w/ Penelope Houston here : wfmu.org...
	♥ 8:13pm Gary: Ooh, nice -- thanks, RevRab! Geezerette, I love them so!
	♥ 8:14pm Gary: Also, I should say that they're output is more varied than what we'll here tonight -- I'm mostly playin the rockers
	8:19pm geezerette: Have to say I've heard a lot of fantastic Chinese Rock on FMU, and practically nowhere else! "Shanghai" is hilarious! These girls are adorable! They'd probably hate being called that though! :D
	8:20pm Dean: @RevRNov63: Yup. I brokered that one.
	♥ 8:21pm hyde: sad to say, when i saw B in T, they were unfortunately not wearing torn up wedding dresses!
	♥ 8:24pm melinda: This is pretty.
	8:28pm Jason Elbogen: Hey Gary--here's a statistical oddity: number of GTDS djs who saw Babes in Toyland when they used to live in Minneapolis and now live in Queens=2!!!!
	8:28pm Dean: "Ourself Beside Me was first formed in 2003 by former Hang On The Box guitarist Yang Fan."
	♥ 8:30pm hyde: this bed music is crazy good
	♥ 8:31pm hyde: holy heck, i haven't heard this L7 in years
	♥ 8:31pm Gary: Jason! OMG, did you see them in the park? I can't remember the name of that park, the nice one across the freeway from the Walker
	♥ 8:31pm coelacanth: 9pm only?
	♥ 8:32pm Gary: Did I say 9 PM? If so, I meant 10 PM
	♥ 8:33pm Gary: Thanks, Dean!
	8:36pm Jason Elbogen: Loring Park, right? No, I saw them at First Avenue...
	♥ 8:37pm Gary: Yes! First Avenue was the spot, of course. But, yeah, I happened to see this special mini-concert they did for a video of some kind in Loring Park
	8:39pm Jason Elbogen: When did you live there? I was there from 94-98 (doing band stuff for most of that time, so I saw way too many shows back then...
	♥ 8:40pm Gary: I was there from 1991-1997. Do you remember City Pages? I wrote (very bad) book reviews for them now and then. My editor, Will Hermes, used to give me tickets to stuff at 7th Ave Entry now and then ... that was where I first saw Jonathan Richman, for instance
	8:45pm Jason Elbogen: Yep, I temember City Pages and Will Hermes... Did you happen to see Harry Pussy at the Famine Chorus? One of the best shows I ever saw...
	♥ 8:47pm Gary: No, sadly! I'm trying to remember some of what I saw. A lot of local stuff: Trip Shakespeare, Gear Daddies, The Tropicals ...
	8:48pm Jason Elbogen: My good friends/roommates were in a great band called Better Off Airport that you probably would remember seeing if you did...
	8:48pm Jason Elbogen: (They opened for Babes in Toyland s few times)
	♥ 8:49pm Polyus: Geez, how many current and ex- Mpls people are on this playlist ?
	♥ 8:49pm Gary: That's a great name ... I don't remember them, tho :(
	♥ 8:50pm Gary: Polyus! It was kind of a great place to be a slacker in the 90s
	♥ 8:54pm Polyus: Hey Gary. Definitely remember Better Off Airport. No idea what any of them are up to now.
	8:55pm Jason Elbogen: I think Will Hermes described them as ' Boredoms-meets-Beastie-Boys' (which I still remember because I teased thrm about it). Maybe not Will--could have been the other 'successful' (but more square) Twin Cities rock writer. Name started with J, Jim or Jeff or something...
	♥ 8:56pm Gary: That makes me want to hear them!
	8:57pm Jason Elbogen: It's possible any of you (oddly large number of) 90's Minneapolis people might have had the misfortune of seeing my group The Shepherd Kings...
	♥ 8:58pm hyde: ok, Beasties meets Boredoms. i need to hear that.
	♥ 8:58pm Gary: LOL, I don't think so ... did you play 7th Ave Entry? That seems to be the only place I ever went to see bands :)
	8:59pm Jason Elbogen: Gary, coincidentally I was feeling nostalgic last week anf opened my show with a BetterOff Airport track if you want to check out y he archive.
	♥ 9:04pm Polyus: I have this weird memory of being at the Red Dragon one night when a couple of the BOA guys asked me and my friend to protect them from some skinheads who were threatening them. Neither of us were particularly big dudes, so we had to say, "er, what are we gonna be able to do?"
	♥ 9:08pm Gary: Aha! Arthur Ashe, R.I.P.: wfmu.org...
	9:08pm Jason Elbogen: Polyus, Wow! I went to the Red Dragon with the BOA people all the time snd remember the skinhead problem. One specific skinhead who I somehow remember was named Russel was particularly large and frightening.
	♥ 9:08pm Gary: Definitely going to listen, Jason!
	9:09pm Jason Elbogen: In fact Russel was so scary/tough that he kicked the shit out of ghe Red Dragon bouncer one night.
	♥ 9:13pm Gary: I don't remember Red Dragon, but I did get to go to Nye's Polonaise Room several times
	♥ 9:14pm Polyus: Yikes. I was never a fan of the place, but it seemed like all my friends at the time were, so I got dragged there a lot.
	♥ 9:14pm Gary: I loved it!
	♥ 9:15pm Polyus: Nye's fell victim to evil developers this year. Hard to believe, I thought it would be there forever.
	♥ 9:16pm Polyus: p.s. - Red Dragon was the place I didn't like. Nye's was great.
	♥ 9:17pm Gary: Oh, man, noooooo! That place was like a cultural artifact ... I can't believe they did that
	9:19pm Jason Elbogen: I lived 3 blocks from the Red Dragon and started going before it became a 'thing', although admittedly I continued after it did, too because of the proximity to my house--also I liked a Polynesian drink they called The Fog Cutter.
	9:25pm Dean: Google Maps has a street view shot from January 2016, three months before the closure of Nye's. I'd never heard of it, but it sure looks amazing. Address: 112 E Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN
	♥ 9:27pm Gary: Dean, I think it once made Rolling Stone or some other crappy magazine's Top 5 Bars in the USA
	9:28pm Dean: Esquire. Best bar, supposedly. I read Esquire for Charlie Pierce. The rest? Ugh.
	♥ 9:29pm Gary: Yes, that's right!
	♥ 9:29pm Polyus: Pretty decent food, too. Used to go there for lunch on occasion.
	♥ 9:30pm hyde: re: Esquire. Charlie Pierce is worth it, though.
	♥ 9:30pm Gary: If anyone has any requests for the last set, now's the time to get them in!
	9:31pm Dean: Yes, he is. As are (rather, were) the comments, which have been migrated to Facebook. A pity such a slick rag has to outsource its content to not just another application, which is par for the course, but to an entirely separate platform! It's crazy.
	♥ 9:35pm hyde: heh. my philosophy is: never read the comments.
	9:35pm Dean: Mine, too. With at least a couple exceptions: Charlie Pierce's posts and here!
	♥ 9:37pm Gary: @Dean, we're going to see a lot more magazines etc moving much of what they do to FB
	9:39pm Dean: Not to belabor the point, but his comments are like hanging out at the local watering hole with its assortment of cranks and comics. Funny, smart stuff. (I'm not congratulating myself, by the way, because I never commented there.) I agree, Gary. Not prudent over the long run. We are putting out faith in the wrong sorta people. Heh, I knew the bass player of The Bags when she sold cosmetics at a department store in the town where I grew up.
	9:39pm Dean: *our faith
	♥ 10:01pm hyde: thanks Gary!
	♥ 10:01pm coelacanth: Thanks Gary. Extraordinary program it's been! goodnight all
	♥ 10:04pm Gary: Nighty nights!
	♥ 3:27pm fred: This Gỗ Lim set is one of the best thing I've heard on this station. Thank you for that
	♥ 3:23pm coelacanth: Gỗ Lim = UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE !! i'm so glad i came back to this archive! the first set, which i missed, is, well -what fred said (^). Thanks again Gary!

	♥ 8:31pm hyde: holy heck, i haven't heard this L7 in years
	♥ 8:31pm Gary: Jason! OMG, did you see them in the park? I can't remember the name of that park, the nice one across the freeway from the Walker
	♥ 8:31pm coelacanth: 9pm only?
	♥ 8:32pm Gary: Did I say 9 PM? If so, I meant 10 PM
	♥ 8:33pm Gary: Thanks, Dean!
	8:36pm Jason Elbogen: Loring Park, right? No, I saw them at First Avenue...
	♥ 8:37pm Gary: Yes! First Avenue was the spot, of course. But, yeah, I happened to see this special mini-concert they did for a video of some kind in Loring Park
	8:39pm Jason Elbogen: When did you live there? I was there from 94-98 (doing band stuff for most of that time, so I saw way too many shows back then...
	♥ 8:40pm Gary: I was there from 1991-1997. Do you remember City Pages? I wrote (very bad) book reviews for them now and then. My editor, Will Hermes, used to give me tickets to stuff at 7th Ave Entry now and then ... that was where I first saw Jonathan Richman, for instance
	8:45pm Jason Elbogen: Yep, I temember City Pages and Will Hermes... Did you happen to see Harry Pussy at the Famine Chorus? One of the best shows I ever saw...
	♥ 8:47pm Gary: No, sadly! I'm trying to remember some of what I saw. A lot of local stuff: Trip Shakespeare, Gear Daddies, The Tropicals ...
	8:48pm Jason Elbogen: My good friends/roommates were in a great band called Better Off Airport that you probably would remember seeing if you did...
	8:48pm Jason Elbogen: (They opened for Babes in Toyland s few times)
	♥ 8:49pm Polyus: Geez, how many current and ex- Mpls people are on this playlist ?
	♥ 8:49pm Gary: That's a great name ... I don't remember them, tho :(
	♥ 8:50pm Gary: Polyus! It was kind of a great place to be a slacker in the 90s
	♥ 8:54pm Polyus: Hey Gary. Definitely remember Better Off Airport. No idea what any of them are up to now.
	8:55pm Jason Elbogen: I think Will Hermes described them as ' Boredoms-meets-Beastie-Boys' (which I still remember because I teased thrm about it). Maybe not Will--could have been the other 'successful' (but more square) Twin Cities rock writer. Name started with J, Jim or Jeff or something...
	♥ 8:56pm Gary: That makes me want to hear them!
	8:57pm Jason Elbogen: It's possible any of you (oddly large number of) 90's Minneapolis people might have had the misfortune of seeing my group The Shepherd Kings...
	♥ 8:58pm hyde: ok, Beasties meets Boredoms. i need to hear that.
	♥ 8:58pm Gary: LOL, I don't think so ... did you play 7th Ave Entry? That seems to be the only place I ever went to see bands :)
	8:59pm Jason Elbogen: Gary, coincidentally I was feeling nostalgic last week anf opened my show with a BetterOff Airport track if you want to check out y he archive.
	♥ 9:04pm Polyus: I have this weird memory of being at the Red Dragon one night when a couple of the BOA guys asked me and my friend to protect them from some skinheads who were threatening them. Neither of us were particularly big dudes, so we had to say, "er, what are we gonna be able to do?"
	♥ 9:08pm Gary: Aha! Arthur Ashe, R.I.P.: wfmu.org...
	9:08pm Jason Elbogen: Polyus, Wow! I went to the Red Dragon with the BOA people all the time snd remember the skinhead problem. One specific skinhead who I somehow remember was named Russel was particularly large and frightening.
	♥ 9:08pm Gary: Definitely going to listen, Jason!
	9:09pm Jason Elbogen: In fact Russel was so scary/tough that he kicked the shit out of ghe Red Dragon bouncer one night.
	♥ 9:13pm Gary: I don't remember Red Dragon, but I did get to go to Nye's Polonaise Room several times
	♥ 9:14pm Polyus: Yikes. I was never a fan of the place, but it seemed like all my friends at the time were, so I got dragged there a lot.
	♥ 9:14pm Gary: I loved it!
	♥ 9:15pm Polyus: Nye's fell victim to evil developers this year. Hard to believe, I thought it would be there forever.
	♥ 9:16pm Polyus: p.s. - Red Dragon was the place I didn't like. Nye's was great.
	♥ 9:17pm Gary: Oh, man, noooooo! That place was like a cultural artifact ... I can't believe they did that
	9:19pm Jason Elbogen: I lived 3 blocks from the Red Dragon and started going before it became a 'thing', although admittedly I continued after it did, too because of the proximity to my house--also I liked a Polynesian drink they called The Fog Cutter.
	9:25pm Dean: Google Maps has a street view shot from January 2016, three months before the closure of Nye's. I'd never heard of it, but it sure looks amazing. Address: 112 E Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis, MN
	♥ 9:27pm Gary: Dean, I think it once made Rolling Stone or some other crappy magazine's Top 5 Bars in the USA
	9:28pm Dean: Esquire. Best bar, supposedly. I read Esquire for Charlie Pierce. The rest? Ugh.
	♥ 9:29pm Gary: Yes, that's right!
	♥ 9:29pm Polyus: Pretty decent food, too. Used to go there for lunch on occasion.
	♥ 9:30pm hyde: re: Esquire. Charlie Pierce is worth it, though.
	♥ 9:30pm Gary: If anyone has any requests for the last set, now's the time to get them in!
	9:31pm Dean: Yes, he is. As are (rather, were) the comments, which have been migrated to Facebook. A pity such a slick rag has to outsource its content to not just another application, which is par for the course, but to an entirely separate platform! It's crazy.
	♥ 9:35pm hyde: heh. my philosophy is: never read the comments.
	9:35pm Dean: Mine, too. With at least a couple exceptions: Charlie Pierce's posts and here!
	♥ 9:37pm Gary: @Dean, we're going to see a lot more magazines etc moving much of what they do to FB
	9:39pm Dean: Not to belabor the point, but his comments are like hanging out at the local watering hole with its assortment of cranks and comics. Funny, smart stuff. (I'm not congratulating myself, by the way, because I never commented there.) I agree, Gary. Not prudent over the long run. We are putting out faith in the wrong sorta people. Heh, I knew the bass player of The Bags when she sold cosmetics at a department store in the town where I grew up.
	9:39pm Dean: *our faith
	♥ 10:01pm hyde: thanks Gary!
	♥ 10:01pm coelacanth: Thanks Gary. Extraordinary program it's been! goodnight all
	♥ 10:04pm Gary: Nighty nights!
	♥ 3:27pm fred: This Gỗ Lim set is one of the best thing I've heard on this station. Thank you for that
	♥ 3:23pm coelacanth: Gỗ Lim = UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE !! i'm so glad i came back to this archive! the first set, which i missed, is, well -what fred said (^). Thanks again Gary!
