	3:41pm Alvy Singer: Clear Spot was produced by Ted Templeman who also worked with Van Morrison, Doobie Brothers and Van Halen.

	3:47pm wfmu listener phillip: @fabio has a very calming very comforting voice, or is that just me😊
	3:48pm tim from champaign (now washington): Hey Fabio! Howdy Fabio listeners.
	3:48pm The Oscar: There's also Berlin, MA, but it's pronounced "BER-lin," because Massachusetts town names just can't be normal.
	👻 3:51pm chresti: I like this

	4:44pm Morgan: swimming elephant music
	4:46pm Smog on the Tyne: Greetings fellow Failureites from a snowy but starry-night here in North East england.
	4:49pm p/b: Hi everyone, love light to all but really don't understand why all this audio is lining up with my head so perfectly right now. It's basically OK I think/who can say/who dares speak/squirrelllllllllll
	4:50pm novakscene: Michel Chion might be the ultimate Strength Though Failure figure, an experimental composer who is also a film critic...
	4:51pm nic: love this & the last one!!!
	4:51pm David (in London): How do Smoggy Tynester.
	4:52pm Smog on the Tyne: Hia there Dave - I think we are the token limeys ;-)

	4:54pm Bebe: Laundry mission about to commence--wish me luck!
	4:54pm βrian: Listening in.

	4:57pm wfmu listener phillip: wow! two hours gone soo fast
	4:59pm Handy Haversack: I have done production work on some of Chion's books -- and didn't even realize he was a composer until now!
	4:59pm coelacanth∅: greetings Fabio and Fabiolios
	5:00pm Morgan: stretch
	5:01pm Handy Haversack: All of this realizin' calls for a drink, I think. Yo, coela.
	5:03pm βrian: I'm having a louche little white Bordeaux.
	5:05pm TDK60: Ribeiro & crew!
	5:09pm jt: Ribeiro & Alps..so intense. High Drama!
	5:10pm kevlicki: Hello wfmuland
	5:10pm common: fabio, all. hello!
	5:11pm ami ad: Handy Haversack, βrian, cracked a cold one, cheers.
	5:13pm David (in London): I must state for the record that I absolutely frickin' love the Third Ear Band. What an outfit.
	5:15pm common: and, yea...cheers!
	5:16pm dale: holy crap - i was thinking this sounded like third ear band's soundtrack to macbeth. logged on and i'm not that far off. haven't thought of them in ages
	5:17pm dale: now i need to dig that album out - it sounded better than i recall.
	5:18pm Chris: Yeah, a few moments reminded me of Henry Cow. Need to listen to it again as well.
	👻 5:19pm Niall: Hullo, David (in London). How's Ontario this time of year? ;)
	5:19pm R. Noel Fox: Hello everyone. I've been listening, but lost in my life stuff.
	5:21pm -Ken: Hello all. Great to hear this Third Ear Band. It's been a long time
	5:21pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Fox. Cheers, ami ad, βrian! Though I do like to maintain my position as the louchest thing in the apartment.
	5:21pm βrian: I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking and stepped in some life stuff, myself.
	5:22pm βrian: Wait, isn't Olympic Louche a kind of downhill sport?
	5:22pm Andres: Unmistakable sounds of Colin Stetson!
	5:23pm Handy Haversack: It's all downhill for me, sport. (See?!)
	5:23pm novakscene: Sufferin’ succotash this is fantastic!
	5:26pm Alvy Singer: Colin Stetson saxophone work is just stunning. Incredible the different sounds he gets.
	5:27pm βrian: Way better than The Suffering of Your End.
	5:27pm steveo: this, but for ears 🤩
	5:28pm Mike da Scag: And how. His album with Sarah Neufeld on violin is exquisite
	5:28pm dale: better than huey lewis sax? needs reexamination.
	5:30pm nic: yeah dig it!!!
	5:31pm HyperDose: @R. Noel Fox If it's any consolation, today I was greeted by the yearly cockroach that somehow finds it's way into my unit. We shot the breeze until I slipped some poison in his tea. I'm not proud of my actions.
	5:32pm rita popova: this is gooooood
	5:34pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose: Whenever I see a cockroach, I call my cats, who are very dog like, adn come running. Ususally I find the cockroaches in the bathroom, so I call them and then close them in with the offending insect and wait until they kill it.
	5:34pm p/b: I knew that was Les Baxter! Has some cool horn stuff, really interesting guy. Put out a ton of music, got great sounds even on the shlockly stuff
	👻 5:35pm chresti: Hyperdose: I found that sealing off the space under doors to the outside keeps cockroaches out.
	5:37pm p/b: I had a wonderful, majestic black cat for years, Bagheera (I know but it was before the movie and I saw her slice a cockroach in three pieces and then she just looked at it, digging her work. She was like one of those Egyptian cat statues in the Met. Fierce, beautiful girl. Cats rule
	5:38pm p/b: and they know it
	5:38pm dale: i remember the big squeezy bottle of boric acid powder that was in every bodega in brooklyn. didn't stop the water bugs from coming up out of the bathtub drain when the storm drains were high from the rain though.
	👻 5:39pm chresti: We had a cat like that, p/b, he was half Siamese.
	5:40pm R. Noel Fox: My cats are half ragdoll, half brooklyn street cat.
	5:42pm HyperDose: @chresti I live in a 100yr old building above a restaurant. I wish a crack under the door was my only problem haha @Fox My cat is really tall and long, he's basically like a little dog. But like, insane. He was really good with the mouse I found a few weeks ago. He sat there so it froze up, and I could put it in a bag. He's my little sidekick.
	5:42pm NikiA: can I ask a question of the group? I recently set out to rebuild my physical cd collection and move away from streaming svcs, but in this new world, where TF does one buy cd albums?
	5:43pm Mike da Scag: Does Downtown Music Gallery still have lots of CDs?
	5:44pm HyperDose: @NikiA Ebay. DJs sell their entire collections for a penny a disc. I buy in bulk there or go to Discogs if you want something uber specific or rare
	5:45pm NikiA: oooh @hyperdose thank you Mike- I'll check them out. I am in north jersey just outside the city and I sort of assumed everything in NYC is closed
	5:46pm Handy Haversack: NikiA, we have been prioritizing on Bandcamp Fridays bands that have CDs since we've been driving more in hashtagcovidaloca. So plenty of bands on Bandcamp are pressing and selling CDs. My glances into the local record shops confirm that there are still CD sections. I'm off the Ebay since their true corporate colors were revealed (see Techtonic playlists for details). The record shops in our neighborhood are open for limited browsing.
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: Also: antique stores! We scored cheap copies of Sisters of Mercy, the Fixx, Siouxsie, and a bunch of others after some seriously half-assed looking.
	5:48pm Miss G: Thank you for an enthralling show today Fabio and thank you Skeleton Crew!
	5:49pm dale: guy i do some work for asked if i wanted some cd's he was tossing and i said sure - he gave me about 200. some were yanni but a lot of good stuff for road trips.
	👻 5:50pm chresti: Seal off any cracks/spaces in your apt. (around windows, outlets, light fixtures, switches, etc.) @hyperdose. You can freeze them with a fire extinguisher and toss them outside, they'll come back to life after they thaw, (at least, I think they will)
	5:50pm David (in London): Handy's Big Score. That was a seriously good haul. Thanks Fabio, great show as usual.
	5:52pm NikiA: Thank you Handy, you guys have all given me serious tips! I knew you were the ones to ask!
	5:52pm HyperDose: @dale I resent the implication that Yanni isn't road trip material. Need I remind you the New Age masterpiece that Chameleon Days was/is? @chresti thank you kindly
	5:53pm JG: Looooouuuu!
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: I told you I'd stop after just one more big score, David! Thanks, Fabio and Skeleton (Ken?). You all are the absolute best! You know what I'm looking forward to? Marathon. Because even though it won't be like past Marathons, it will be a chance to just absolutely celebrate what the DJs and Skeletons have been gift-gift-gifting to us over this last and terrible year. I can't wait. Be well, Failsafes. We might crash, but we burn brightest together.
	5:54pm dale: sorry hyper. i'll delve into the oeuvre a biut deeper.
	5:54pm TDK60: Fun-packed show, thanks, Fabio.
	👻 5:55pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio! Many clicky-stars again today!
	5:55pm Rich in Bay Ridge: My favorite Lou song. Thanks Fabio!
	5:55pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thanks Fabio !
	5:55pm flowers: Lou Reed--so talented
	5:56pm ami ad: Thank you, DJ. Crew.
	5:56pm Handy Haversack: Sweet Lou!
	5:56pm Bob in DC: Thanks Fabio. Perfect tune
	5:57pm Morgan: fabio thank you
	5:57pm Megaroni: Down at the pier looking at the city, perfect song- Fab is fab
	👻 5:57pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:58pm JG: Captain Beef Heart-check Bunch of weird/ cool shit-check No Boards of Canada-???? (why not) Lou Reed-check = Great show
	5:58pm HyperDose: Very interesting show tonight Fabio, but in no way a failure!
	5:58pm dale: just looked out the window. neighbors still have the plastic nativity out. talk about light pollution!
	5:59pm wfmu listener phillip: oh wow it's over. that was soooo fast. time flew by. great show
	👻 5:59pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Fabio! thanks, Skels!
	5:59pm rita popova: thank youuuu Fabioooo
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Fabio
	6:00pm mb: Tanks Fabio and those skeletons bopping about
	👻 6:00pm Mick: Thanks Fabio - that one went superfast!
	6:02pm WR: thank you.
	6:09pm Morgan: he took it out

	5:17pm dale: now i need to dig that album out - it sounded better than i recall.
	5:18pm Chris: Yeah, a few moments reminded me of Henry Cow. Need to listen to it again as well.
	👻 5:19pm Niall: Hullo, David (in London). How's Ontario this time of year? ;)

	5:21pm βrian: I wasn't paying attention to where I was walking and stepped in some life stuff, myself.
	5:22pm βrian: Wait, isn't Olympic Louche a kind of downhill sport?
	5:22pm Andres: Unmistakable sounds of Colin Stetson!
	5:23pm Handy Haversack: It's all downhill for me, sport. (See?!)
	5:23pm novakscene: Sufferin’ succotash this is fantastic!
	5:26pm Alvy Singer: Colin Stetson saxophone work is just stunning. Incredible the different sounds he gets.
	5:27pm βrian: Way better than The Suffering of Your End.
	5:27pm steveo: this, but for ears 🤩
	5:28pm Mike da Scag: And how. His album with Sarah Neufeld on violin is exquisite
	5:28pm dale: better than huey lewis sax? needs reexamination.
	5:30pm nic: yeah dig it!!!
	5:31pm HyperDose: @R. Noel Fox If it's any consolation, today I was greeted by the yearly cockroach that somehow finds it's way into my unit. We shot the breeze until I slipped some poison in his tea. I'm not proud of my actions.
	5:32pm rita popova: this is gooooood
	5:34pm R. Noel Fox: HyperDose: Whenever I see a cockroach, I call my cats, who are very dog like, adn come running. Ususally I find the cockroaches in the bathroom, so I call them and then close them in with the offending insect and wait until they kill it.
	5:34pm p/b: I knew that was Les Baxter! Has some cool horn stuff, really interesting guy. Put out a ton of music, got great sounds even on the shlockly stuff
	👻 5:35pm chresti: Hyperdose: I found that sealing off the space under doors to the outside keeps cockroaches out.
	5:37pm p/b: I had a wonderful, majestic black cat for years, Bagheera (I know but it was before the movie and I saw her slice a cockroach in three pieces and then she just looked at it, digging her work. She was like one of those Egyptian cat statues in the Met. Fierce, beautiful girl. Cats rule
	5:38pm p/b: and they know it
	5:38pm dale: i remember the big squeezy bottle of boric acid powder that was in every bodega in brooklyn. didn't stop the water bugs from coming up out of the bathtub drain when the storm drains were high from the rain though.
	👻 5:39pm chresti: We had a cat like that, p/b, he was half Siamese.
	5:40pm R. Noel Fox: My cats are half ragdoll, half brooklyn street cat.
	5:42pm HyperDose: @chresti I live in a 100yr old building above a restaurant. I wish a crack under the door was my only problem haha @Fox My cat is really tall and long, he's basically like a little dog. But like, insane. He was really good with the mouse I found a few weeks ago. He sat there so it froze up, and I could put it in a bag. He's my little sidekick.
	5:42pm NikiA: can I ask a question of the group? I recently set out to rebuild my physical cd collection and move away from streaming svcs, but in this new world, where TF does one buy cd albums?
	5:43pm Mike da Scag: Does Downtown Music Gallery still have lots of CDs?
	5:44pm HyperDose: @NikiA Ebay. DJs sell their entire collections for a penny a disc. I buy in bulk there or go to Discogs if you want something uber specific or rare
	5:45pm NikiA: oooh @hyperdose thank you Mike- I'll check them out. I am in north jersey just outside the city and I sort of assumed everything in NYC is closed
	5:46pm Handy Haversack: NikiA, we have been prioritizing on Bandcamp Fridays bands that have CDs since we've been driving more in hashtagcovidaloca. So plenty of bands on Bandcamp are pressing and selling CDs. My glances into the local record shops confirm that there are still CD sections. I'm off the Ebay since their true corporate colors were revealed (see Techtonic playlists for details). The record shops in our neighborhood are open for limited browsing.
	5:48pm Handy Haversack: Also: antique stores! We scored cheap copies of Sisters of Mercy, the Fixx, Siouxsie, and a bunch of others after some seriously half-assed looking.
	5:48pm Miss G: Thank you for an enthralling show today Fabio and thank you Skeleton Crew!
	5:49pm dale: guy i do some work for asked if i wanted some cd's he was tossing and i said sure - he gave me about 200. some were yanni but a lot of good stuff for road trips.
	👻 5:50pm chresti: Seal off any cracks/spaces in your apt. (around windows, outlets, light fixtures, switches, etc.) @hyperdose. You can freeze them with a fire extinguisher and toss them outside, they'll come back to life after they thaw, (at least, I think they will)
	5:50pm David (in London): Handy's Big Score. That was a seriously good haul. Thanks Fabio, great show as usual.
	5:52pm NikiA: Thank you Handy, you guys have all given me serious tips! I knew you were the ones to ask!
	5:52pm HyperDose: @dale I resent the implication that Yanni isn't road trip material. Need I remind you the New Age masterpiece that Chameleon Days was/is? @chresti thank you kindly
	5:53pm JG: Looooouuuu!
	5:53pm Handy Haversack: I told you I'd stop after just one more big score, David! Thanks, Fabio and Skeleton (Ken?). You all are the absolute best! You know what I'm looking forward to? Marathon. Because even though it won't be like past Marathons, it will be a chance to just absolutely celebrate what the DJs and Skeletons have been gift-gift-gifting to us over this last and terrible year. I can't wait. Be well, Failsafes. We might crash, but we burn brightest together.
	5:54pm dale: sorry hyper. i'll delve into the oeuvre a biut deeper.
	5:54pm TDK60: Fun-packed show, thanks, Fabio.
	👻 5:55pm Bas NL: Thanks Fabio! Many clicky-stars again today!

	5:57pm Megaroni: Down at the pier looking at the city, perfect song- Fab is fab
	👻 5:57pm chresti: Thanks Fabio!
	5:58pm JG: Captain Beef Heart-check Bunch of weird/ cool shit-check No Boards of Canada-???? (why not) Lou Reed-check = Great show
	5:58pm HyperDose: Very interesting show tonight Fabio, but in no way a failure!
	5:58pm dale: just looked out the window. neighbors still have the plastic nativity out. talk about light pollution!
	5:59pm wfmu listener phillip: oh wow it's over. that was soooo fast. time flew by. great show
	👻 5:59pm chris in the redwoods: thanks, Fabio! thanks, Skels!
	5:59pm rita popova: thank youuuu Fabioooo
