	11:09am clarke: nice-looking army soldiers!!
	♥ 11:10am Handy Haversack: Bandcamp Friday was a like a Marathon warm-up in terms of getting my natural cheapness to unclench and get ready to gleefully watch the bank account dwindle. Greg, I hear you. We are going to drop off enough food for a Skeleton Army next Saturday, though, which makes up for it a little bit. I've never driven to JC before!
	11:10am Kpx: Michael might be nuts, but there's nothing nuts about his music selection. If that's a bloody Mary how come it's not red from the tomato juice.
	♥ 11:10am Eddy in Australia: Hi from just west of California
	♥ 11:11am Hoboken Jack: Hi Michael, Ruth, MVP Matt, Frank, Baby, Handy, everybody!
	11:11am Ruth Booth: Jack!
	11:11am clarke: where it's still summer!
	11:12am Juke Joint Jonny: No fooling' that Hot Rod Surfin' Hootlebeatnanny really is the greatest record of all time. til the next one.
	♥ 11:12am Handy Haversack: Jack! Ruth! clarke! Everyone!
	♥ 11:12am Eddy in Australia: It’s autumn here now
	♥ 11:13am Frank In Queens: Everyone!
	♥ 11:13am MFlynn: Hi Michael. It’s another fabulous music filled Saturday on WFMU!
	11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Skeleton Army! ...Children of the Dragon's Teeth...
	11:13am ledzeppelinsucks: JFA has a lot of songs that are about this long.
	11:13am clarke: it's autumn everywhere.
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& about - this wide...
	♥ 11:14am Eddy in Australia: The reggae version of this, by the Clarendonians, is a certified No. 1 hit
	♥ 11:15am Dennis Diken: go Mikey! this is a cool version of "You Won't See Me"
	11:15am Andrew Hollywood: good morning to everybody's username
	♥ 11:19am Greg from ZONE 5: @Rev Rabbit: "The children of the niiiiiiiight!!"
	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Era when you could chart a single titled 'The Happy Organ'...
	11:20am frankmiggs: what's that little clicky sound in this recording?
	11:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: castanet?
	♥ 11:22am Michael Shelley: bass?
	♥ 11:23am Hughie Considine: Pork chop is slang for the bass...
	11:25am clarke: it is neither the slapping bass nor the castanet. but, darned if i know what it is. probably something that was just sitting around in the studio.
	11:25am Kpx: I guess you already know there are a whole generations of people that know nothing about music from the '80s on down. To them that's ancient history and unrelatable.
	11:26am clarke: when i covered this song, live, i hit the top of the kick drum.
	♥ 11:27am Hughie Considine: This may be the Ramones' sweetest, lightest pop confection.
	11:28am andy fuchs: great show from Bobby B and off to a great start with the awesome Mike Shelley !! Love FMU Saturdays :)
	11:28am XLax: Wow DJ Michael Shelly, plugged into the show with ear buds...volume was 100% blast out, but I don't mind cleaning brain bits off the buds for that blues tune.
	♥ 11:28am Hughie Considine: Not many of those Johnny downstrokes
	11:28am annette: the tamborine made my whole body hurt.
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Road to Ruin 1978 Carrying the LP in High School - a scandal...
	11:31am Jeff formerly from Rahway: My mom hasn’t even been vaccinated one hour & she’s already running off a list of restaurants she wants to visit.
	11:32am clarke: ha ha ha ha
	11:33am Doug in JC: Good morning. Definitely one of my top 3 favorite Ramones songs
	11:33am clarke: MovieTime buckos!!
	11:33am XLax: Unless more than 90% of USA population got the treatment (it's not a vaccine) it is a waste of effort. Nowhere near 95% of people are that foolish.
	♥ 11:33am Handy Haversack: No one makes a monkey out of Han D. Sack! Morning, Doug!
	♥ 11:33am Hubig Pie: T. of the Sierra Madre = movie gold
	11:34am clarke: Treasure is INDEED a TREASURE!! tim holt = Da Best!
	♥ 11:34am Frank In Queens: 3 this week. The Wrong Man, and two more Fuller scripts; Shockproof and Scandal Sheet.
	♥ 11:34am WR: It is still cold in the NE Tri-state area. brrrr.
	11:34am Doug in JC: Hey handy! They lied, first shot was way worse.
	♥ 11:34am Greg from ZONE 5: Sounds like the Shelley family should set sail for Key Largo! My favorite Bogey, and you get Eddie G as a bonus.
	♥ 11:35am greg g: Good Morning Michael & Everyone! I wasnt really leaning in that direction but I will pass along your PSA on the Shamrock Shake to friends and family
	♥ 11:35am Frank In Queens: March sucks.
	♥ 11:36am Handy Haversack: Feeling OK now, though, Doug? That's good! I got an appt. for a first shot! I had forgotten that I actually have a condition. Because I still think (and act like) I'm fourteen years old.
	11:36am clarke: i, for one, am glad that Oscar Month is over! watched the first few mins of both Psycho & NXNW just to see the genius of how hitch pulls you IN
	11:37am Doug in JC: I don't feel good and I'm not going anywhere today, but I am getting some light work done around the house. That's great for you! Still trying to get Shayna on the list
	♥ 11:37am greg g: i remember eating Spaghettios when I was 20 after not having them since I was about 10 and being so let down; quite gross
	♥ 11:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Lousy Smarch weather…
	11:37am Kpx: Sounds like they just found cheaper cruddier 'supposingly mint flavored' chemicals.
	11:37am clarke: march sucks is better than april sucks - when i lived on cape cod - april was absolutely cruel.
	♥ 11:37am Squints: Nah. We seem to be in late January. Which I prefer to be timely and then expeditiously gone. The only problem with March is that the last five years or so in New England, it lasts until Memorial Day.
	11:37am Moammar: I will take the vaccine in my eyeball if that's what it takes. I need to go to a bar. I need to go to the Kettle of Fish.
	♥ 11:37am Squints: What clarke said.
	♥ 11:38am Frank In Queens: Oh, April sucks too.
	♥ 11:38am Handy Haversack: Smarch ... the longest month. And it's still the 372nd of Smarch 2020! Moammar: My dad worked there when it was still on Macdougall. It's where he met my mom! And my friend is on the darts team now. I miss it, too.
	11:39am XLax: @greg g I remember having similar experience. I thought "Must be a bad batch in this can, can't possibly this horrible on purpose"
	11:39am Moammar: Honestly, WFMU has been such a bright spot throughout this ordeal. It will have an eternal place in my heart.
	11:39am clarke: we had a phrase on the cape: June-uary
	11:39am Dennis: Do we know whether there are any records by Bobby Vee in which Dylan played (from that period)?
	♥ 11:40am Michael Shelley: Moammar - for me too! (and Thanks!)
	11:40am annette: keeping up my "stash for life" love those new stickers and tees. anyone got a countdown till the fundraiser? YAY YAY YAY. KEEP OUR WORLD TIGHT.
	11:40am Moammar: @HandyHaversack: One of the city's highest quality jukeboxes, fine beer and beatnik heritage. What's not to love?
	11:40am gf2002: Speaking of Mike Curb - He produced one of the coolest instrumentals of the 60's, "Devil's Angels" by Davie Allan and the Arrows, "King Of The Fuzz Guitar". Also did music for the film "It's A Bikini World", which has some amazing music cameos and performances.
	11:40am Robbie Darling: Some Bobby D!
	♥ 11:41am Hughie Considine: I still can't accept that his voice became this sweet merely because he gave up cigarettes for a few months. Where did this voice come from?
	11:41am XLax: I worked outside on Nantucket, i remember having to work with -50 farenheit wind chill temperature. Freezing is a blessing by comparison.
	♥ 11:41am Pedro in Arlington: Bob makes good booze. Talk about that. A bit pricey but he also does the bottle art.
	11:41am Robbie Darling: Thank you Michael!
	11:41am annette: @moa. yes. we all keep together. yes we will.
	11:42am Robbie Darling: I've been to Heaven's Door! I like it.
	♥ 11:42am Handy Haversack: And pinball! And affordable bottles of beer! God, I miss life. I also encourage everyone to check out Key Wilde's "Talking WFMU" once this morning's Double Dip Recess is archived. It should get played on every show. It so captures what an absolute gift the station has been this past year.
	11:42am clarke: speaking of booze - where the heck is Baby!!!???
	♥ 11:43am Hubig Pie: It's a Bikini World, - featuring The Castways singing Liar, Liar
	11:43am Robbie Darling: Frankie Z loved him some Johnny!
	11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: NyQuil Vanilla sleepy slurry dreams of Amurika mint narcotic morning dairy sugar dehydration freeze Unrestrained Crapitalism a disease like Covid-19 removes the sense of taste advertising ignorance give me a dollar & die you don't want that vaccine you don't wanna live & not murder with infection nostalgia not even your memory is your own nice day ...ka-ching.
	11:44am clarke: awfully quiet, t'day, mate!
	♥ 11:44am greg g: @ XLax Yes! spaghettios and shamrock shakes, the opposite of an "acquired taste"... what would you call that?
	11:44am Moammar: ... having plenty fuuuuuuuuun ....
	♥ 11:45am Frank In Queens: @greg g, self-hatred.
	11:45am clarke: overall, it seems like it was a light winter for the east coast - SO FAR>>???
	♥ 11:46am Squints: I don't mind mint. But I like my mint over here and my other flavors (shakes, chocolate, whatnot) over there.
	♥ 11:46am Hoboken Jack: Hey hey Dennis, Greg, Jeff!
	11:46am annette: @greg. spaghettios over raviolis ???
	♥ 11:46am Handy Haversack: greg g: Stockholm syndrome? clarke, Feb. was bruuuuutal.
	11:46am Andrew in Toronto: Hey there Jack!
	11:46am clarke: burnt?
	11:47am Dennis: Not as light as last winter, Clarke, at least in central eastern NJ - there was one snowstorm, on Mischeif Night! This year.... yikes!
	♥ 11:47am Squints: @clarke, if you put the whammy on the weather we've had so far, I will give you SUCH A PINCH. Don't make me come over there.
	11:47am XLax: @Greg g, Exactly, "taste bud maturity" is what I would call it, the OPPOSITE of acquired taste. The only thing that I remember being so shockingly bad was my first taste of beer. (That beer thing is not a problem now of course)
	11:48am clarke: ha ha - everytime i check my app for wellfleet it was in the 40's!!
	11:48am Doug in JC: I made peanut butter cups last week. Surprisingly easy and so much less nasty than the commercial version
	11:48am gf2002: Yes! Seeing The Castaways is alone worth the price of admission to "It's A Bikini World". Also featuring the Animals, and Pat and Lolly Vegas before they became Redbone. I actually like that film as bad as its reputation might be, I love the music and the 60's scenery.
	11:49am annette: @clarke. great snow shower at 4 am. yoo missed it
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Castaways - red velvet lounge - bikini dancers - 13 year old drummer. Crazy Lynchian.
	11:49am clarke: what is nice about being in the south is that, yes, you get that arctic dip that dilled texas, BUT next week your are wearing shorts
	11:50am ledzeppelinsucks: clarke there are a lot of places like that
	11:50am gf2002: And Sid Haig too! lol
	11:50am clarke: =you
	11:50am Kpx: @greg g: I call it super affordable. Which more and more people are finding out, unfortunately.
	11:51am clarke: sure, i mean i grew up here, but one forgets
	♥ 11:52am greg g: @ Frank in Queens Yes! @Handy Yes! @annett never!! & @ Xlax Exactly!! . i still will eat PB & J though if time is tight
	♥ 11:52am myron feld: Best solo ever right here in this JD McPherson? Quite possibly.
	11:53am XLax: @Kpx I have perfected home-made dog food (good for future reference indeed). Basically. is refried beans.
	♥ 11:53am Frank In Queens: Nothing wrong with PB&J provided you're using the PB you have to stir when you first open the jar.
	11:53am clarke: i need to find out about these Sam Fuller scripts.
	♥ 11:53am greg g: @ Kpx yes unfortunately the truth.
	♥ 11:54am Frank In Queens: @clarke Shock Proof was directed by Douglas Sirk.
	♥ 11:54am Handy Haversack: Yeah, Frank. I am, sadly, almost out of this hot-pepper orange jelly I got at a farmers market in Maine last summer.
	11:54am clarke: i like Sirk - very dark
	♥ 11:55am Frank In Queens: That sounds good Handy. Sadly, I can't keep PB in the house otherwise the jar will be empty shortly after being opened.
	11:55am gf2002: "you're sipping your Darjeeling, and staring at the ceiling" is one of the best rhyming lyrics I've ever heard
	11:55am zivilars: Man, I love this show – thanks for always making my Saturday, Michael!
	♥ 11:55am northguineahills: @Handy: Father Ted's Mrs Doyle Go on, Go on, Go on....
	11:55am clarke: i bet christina hides the PB in a chef boyardi can!
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: PB made from peanuts. Radical - I know... Everybody got the FrenchPop Mania...
	♥ 11:56am Frank In Queens: @clarke hahaha, nah she's a fiend for it like I am.
	11:56am ?: Who was singing that awesome song w chorus 2 for the price of one?
	11:57am Moammar: My strongest French music recommendation is Stella, who started with parodies of all those saccharine yeye records, and then went on to make a long string of fabulous pop records in the mid-to-late 60s. Des succes Numeros uns!
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have discovered Pepper Jelly.
	11:57am clarke: ha ha ha that's bcuz you'd probably throw it out!
	♥ 11:57am Michael Shelley: Ever try this - your mind will blow www.maranathafoods.com...
	11:58am Moammar: Also, the Swinging Mademoiselle compilation is well worth a listen. Lots of stuff that would fit right in here en francais.
	11:58am clarke: mind already blown at this show!!!!!
	♥ 11:58am Frank In Queens: Michael, that looks like one of them $11 jars of PB.
	11:58am XLax: Haha DJ Micheal, I think I might rape that PB after reading the description.
	♥ 11:58am StringOFperils: PB that's too good for the J.
	♥ 11:59am greg g: @ Frank , yes love PB . unfortunately the two dudes I live with (who are under the age of 11) wont go for the kind you stir up
	♥ 12:00pm greg g: but thanks for the link Michael. may have to have my own personal jar in the pantry
	♥ 12:00pm Frank In Queens: @greg g, that was me as a kid, but that was also all I knew. I think I cried the first time I tried natural PB.
	12:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JuniorBrown !
	♥ 12:00pm Baja Joe: Hidey ho Michael.
	12:00pm Doug in JC: Did anyone get the swag for life email yet?
	12:00pm clarke: juniper's fave!!
	♥ 12:01pm luka: aye, Doug.
	♥ 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Doug -- last week?
	♥ 12:01pm Baja Joe: @Doug in JC, yup!
	12:02pm gf2002: I saw Junior play live in Boston in Fall '95. I stood right in front of him so I could see what he was doing on that Guit-Steel. Richie Havens was playing that same night in the other room of the club. Amazing show - I couldn't hear properly for days after that show
	♥ 12:02pm greg g: @ Frank yeah Ive got to educate these kids . well I'm starting with WFMU
	12:02pm seth from muddy creek: Saturday grooves!
	12:02pm Doug in JC: I just searched my inbox and found it. Thanks everyone!
	♥ 12:02pm Frank In Queens: @Doug, haven't gotten mine and I just emailed McGasko about it this morning.
	♥ 12:04pm Hubig Pie: Get some sync-o-pa-shun courtesy of Zigaboo Modeliste
	12:04pm clarke: it's crawfish season, ya'll!!!!
	♥ 12:04pm myron feld: The "Sing A Simple Song" riff was made for The Meters.
	♥ 12:05pm Squints: I've seen Junior three times, all at the sadly gone Johnny D's in Somerville. The first time in 2007 he finished with some surf-oriented freakout and some guy had his girlfriend in the scrum dancing like that girl at the end of the beach party movies. At enjoyable as THAT was, I asked her gently to do that two steps to her right because I was trying to see, you know, the guitar player.
	♥ 12:05pm myron feld: My brother-in-law was Zig's sound man/tour mgr for several years. I'll get some stories.
	♥ 12:05pm greg g: nice one Michael . was in Ithaca NY a couple of weeks ago and got a nice copy of The Best of the Meters with this at Angry Mom Records. a total # 1!
	12:06pm Nate K: Shades of “Cissy Strut” on that Sly Stone track.
	12:07pm BadBob: re: s4l email i just found mine in my spam folder
	♥ 12:07pm StringOFperils: Sylvester Stewart was undoubtedly listening to music from NOLA on the way up.
	12:07pm Mister Dobalina: This song is as cool as the weather out side... 24°
	12:07pm Nate K: The existence of Good Vibrations (and all the bands on the label) amidst the Troubles is one of rock’s greatest triumphs.
	12:09pm Moammar: It's tough to be anyone's man when your voice hasn't changed.
	12:10pm clarke: hmm. ask Ronnie Dawson.
	♥ 12:11pm Hughie Considine: Apparently, Andrew Loog Oldham enlisted John and Paul as the Stones struggled to come up with single No. 2.
	12:11pm clarke: they saw jagger/richards on the street and said they had a song for them!
	12:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Legend is AndrewLoog locked Mick & Keef in a kitchen until they wrote a song ?
	♥ 12:12pm Hughie Considine: Nope, Clarke -- that's the accepted story but not what happened.
	12:12pm clarke: according to something i read
	♥ 12:13pm Hughie Considine: Check out A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs, a podcast by Andrew Hickey -- very well researched. You might learn something!
	♥ 12:14pm StringOFperils: This Sanford Clark record is great; I've never heard this. Sonically, timbrally, trippy.
	12:14pm clarke: too busy writing 500 songs
	12:14pm gf2002: @Squints - Johnny D's! RIP that and all the music venues in and around Boston that I went to and played in. I can't remember which club on Landsdowne I saw Junior in '95, I'm thinking Mama Kin? Not sure if it was Avalon or Axis. But I know it was amazing and it looked like everyone who worked at the Boston guitar shops was in the crowd that night to see Junior
	12:14pm DG: That's funny Roe covered that, since the Beatles used to do "Sheila" way back when...Roe said he met John once & he told him that, & he didn't believe him until the "Live at the Star Club" album came out & it was on it. John has also said, in an interview, that they finished "I Wanna Be Your Man" "in front of" the Stones (they needed a follow-up to their 1st hit), so maybe it was partly written before. When I saw Richards on his solo tour in '88, that was part of his set.
	12:16pm clarke: i was at that Mama Kin Junior Brown show! hah!
	♥ 12:17pm StringOFperils: Saw Junior Brown in Toronto a couple of times in the 90s. He IS a freak, and thank goodness for that.
	12:17pm clarke: (but, i did not work in a guitar shop in boston)
	♥ 12:18pm HyperDose: Afternoon, gang! Who's pumped for marathon?!
	♥ 12:18pm northguineahills: Every time I hear Tommy Roe, it makes me hungry for salmon roe...
	♥ 12:18pm myron feld: In Andrew Loog Oldham's "Stoned" he recounts the "I Wanna Be Your Man" story. I can't find my copy but I know it involved running into John and Paul coming out of a pub and saying the Stones needed a song. Maybe someone out there in radioland can find their copy?
	♥ 12:19pm Squints: Only show I ever got around to seeing at the old Valaon (once the older kids were mid-teens and thus could sit for my youngest) was the Little Steven Keep Rock And Roll Alive tour in 2006. The Charms, the Chesterfield Kings, Supersuckers, maybe one other act, and the New York Dolls. Great time.
	♥ 12:20pm Squints: um, Avalon. Sorry.
	♥ 12:20pm greg g: yes to the gladiators, pavement & the fmu!!
	♥ 12:20pm Greg from ZONE 5: My favorite band, 1993-2000
	12:20pm clarke: ah!
	12:20pm gf2002: @clarke Small world! Thanks for confirming Mama Kin. That was an awesome show, one of the best I saw in Boston. Craziest show I ever saw, hands down, was Rev. Horton Heat at the Paradise, with Possum Dixon opening for the Rev. They couldn't finish their set after someone threw a beer at them and it landed on a guitar amp which blew. They were covering "Like A Virgin". Horton Heat was epic that night
	♥ 12:20pm Frank In Queens: The Charms were a good band. Saw them a few times.
	12:21pm hip: You make me happy when I was sad! Long life WFMU!!! And yes, cut your hair! :-D
	♥ 12:21pm northguineahills: I told my my partner I haven't shaved in three weekks. She said that she hadn't shaved in months (which is odd is she is usually imaculate w/ her appearance) The last year has been odd....
	♥ 12:21pm Frank In Queens: My hair is the longest it's been in over 20 years. And I never listen to what Malkmus says.
	12:21pm Andres: Korea! Korea! Korea!
	12:22pm clarke: saw Horton at Avalon, coincidentally
	12:22pm gf2002: No Big Hair!!!
	♥ 12:22pm Handy Haversack: My hair and beard are longer than they have been in 25 years.
	♥ 12:22pm greg g: career or Korea ????
	♥ 12:22pm northguineahills: @Andres: Career! Career! Career!
	12:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Literally don't remember last time my hair was cut. @ all.
	♥ 12:22pm northguineahills: greg beat me to it!
	♥ 12:23pm greg g: malkmus' latest is good too
	12:23pm Andres: I know but that was my personal favourite misheard lyric ever :)
	12:24pm Moammar: One haircut in a year. I grew a beard that made me look like the lost third Smith Brother, but the wifely objections made the situation untenable.
	12:24pm David watts: you wish he never joined led zeppelin?????!!!
	♥ 12:24pm Baja Joe: You wish what!? That JP never joined LZ? That would have ruined my teenage years. What alternative band would there be? Yikes.
	♥ 12:25pm greg g: thanks northguineahills ! i rarely/never am quicker on the draw than anyone ( ask my wife) rest assured you will get the next one!
	♥ 12:26pm Hughie Considine: John Cale > J.J. Cale > Pauline Kael > kale
	12:26pm gf2002: I almost cut my hair, it happened just the other day. It was getting kinda long, but I felt like letting my freak flag fly.
	12:27pm paul: Cale Yarborough
	12:27pm clarke: ok, crosby - take a number and wait like the rest
	♥ 12:27pm Handy Haversack: "Whom."
	♥ 12:28pm HyperDose: haha
	12:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Almost got a new liver...
	12:28pm gf2002: But I feel like I owe it to someone.
	♥ 12:29pm northguineahills: reminds me, I have a MS Teams interview in two weeks, so, I'll need to cut my hair....
	12:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I wandered the neighborhood for a bagel, there are none. Then I came back to work and fouind a bag of bagel chips in the trash. I am using the chips.
	12:31pm Juke Joint Jonny: Hard to get em all together, yes.
	♥ 12:31pm Michael Shelley: whats an MS TEAMS interview...?
	♥ 12:31pm Michael Shelley: and good luck, whatever it is
	12:32pm clarke: i was wondering if Michael Shelley had some kinda Team.
	♥ 12:32pm Squints: Career. Korea. Whatever. Here on the South Shore of MA, sounding it out doesn't help thanks to the Law Of Conservation Of Rs. (All Rs dropped must appear, usually incongruously, at the end of some other word.)
	♥ 12:33pm Handy Haversack: I wanna be on Michaels' Team! (It's Microsoft's video-conference and remote-collaboration platform.)
	♥ 12:33pm northguineahills: I prefer untuned brass.... @Michael: Microsoft Teams Interview for a a third iteration of a job interview. (I'm looking shaggy right now). gracias, michael!
	♥ 12:33pm Squints: Not career. Career.
	12:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BAWSTIN
	♥ 12:34pm northguineahills: MS Teams is like zoom...
	12:34pm clarke: the masshole accent is certainly a stand=out
	12:34pm Anita James: This band is great...the Lyres!
	♥ 12:34pm northguineahills: or what Handy said...
	♥ 12:35pm Handy Haversack: (I guess the team I imagine has more than one Michael?) Squints: Cohasset? Scituate? Hingham? Weymouth? Quincy? Hull?
	♥ 12:35pm Michael Shelley: I should have a team! All the uniforms will have #1 on the back!
	♥ 12:35pm Hughie Considine: The Lyres were a helluva great live band -- caught them at Maxwell's.
	12:35pm ledzeppelinsucks: It's a VIetJewMex breakfast.
	12:35pm clarke: one Pablo Murphy on ze drooms.
	♥ 12:35pm Squints: @RRN63: Nah. BAHstin.
	12:35pm Andres: V8, my complimentary beverage of choice on flights. Never have it otherwise.
	♥ 12:35pm greg g: nice one Squints! i have some cousins from MA and RI who follow that law
	12:35pm ?: Saw them at Ocean Beach in New London with the Reducers. Great, raucous outdoor show.
	♥ 12:36pm jpuva: Help You Ann is the number-one-est of all the number ones
	♥ 12:36pm Squints: clarke, there's a bunch of 'em. Wahlberg was overbearing about the differences in The Departed. But it's weird, all the variations.
	♥ 12:37pm dave wuz here: the lyres are on the short list of things that make my breast swell with regional pride
	♥ 12:37pm Michael 98145: the hits just keep comin'
	♥ 12:37pm Squints: Plymouth. Not quite the new Portland, ME. But Hyannis without the knifings. (Sadly, not without the opioids. Belive me. I know.)
	12:38pm clarke: indeed, sir.
	♥ 12:38pm Squints: Grew up just east of Hartford. The Reducers are my absolutely favorite band.

	♥ 12:40pm Montmaster J: nice
	♥ 12:40pm HyperDose: Always love it when they honk those tonks
	12:40pm ledzeppelinsucks: That bitch at the Hyannis Salvation Army Store turned Karen and asked for my ID after hassling me about staging the shirts I was buying with a credit card. When she saw the San Francisco address she thought she had caught AIDS.
	♥ 12:40pm Squints: We thought about Hull when we briefly considered downsizing. (Short story: 3 dogs, and she gardens. Not happening.) Then in the last dozen years Plymouth got kind of a scene so we're fine staying put.
	12:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' 100s of country songs about hippies - they're all good '... Who will understand why these things amuse me & makes me happy...
	♥ 12:42pm northguineahills: I've found redneck gay bars in FL (and I'm cis-straight male). I think I first heard that Nat Stuckney via Doug Schulkind.
	12:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: NewHampshuh !

	12:43pm clarke: what's that restuarant in Plymouth that started booking some cool acts, before all this madness??
	♥ 12:43pm greg g: @ Revoltuion Rabbit Nov63 Second that!
	♥ 12:44pm dave wuz here: long way from "this place sucks"
	♥ 12:44pm greg g: this is some pop perfection from the queers
	♥ 12:45pm Greg from ZONE 5: From the band that brought you "I Can't Stop Farting" and "I Hate Your Fucking Guts"
	12:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: California is - Mars to some NewEnglanders... & in Santa Barbara I tried describing where I was from. New Hampshire? New England? ...Yeah you know where Boston is. ...Boston - ???...
	♥ 12:45pm Listener Baby: First break today. Been huffing. Hope everyone is rocking and groovin’
	12:45pm Mister Dobalina: Today I learned what cis-straight means.
	12:45pm ledzeppelinsucks: There is a gay bar in Amarillo. I went there on Easter Sunday.
	12:45pm clarke: dang Baby!! you've been quiet
	♥ 12:46pm Frank In Queens: Great John Doe song.
	♥ 12:46pm Michael Shelley: SO SO SO GOOD! GREAT LYRICS (poetic even) GREAT MELODY GREAT HARMONY!

	12:47pm Anita James: Yeah! Great song!
	♥ 12:47pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Hey there. Mr Sweet Corn had me cut his hair and now he says he’s never going to a barber shop again.
	12:47pm clarke: is it vine season in the Golden State?
	♥ 12:47pm Handy Haversack: Whose is the other voice?
	♥ 12:48pm jpuva: Kathleen Edwards does the harmony
	♥ 12:48pm Michael 98145: nice
	12:48pm Moammar: This is fabulous.
	12:48pm paul: RIP, Michael Stanley
	♥ 12:48pm northguineahills: I had a PE teacher in junior high named Jim Lauderdale. Unfortunately, not the muscian...
	♥ 12:48pm Squints: We have a converted church in Plymouth call the Spire Center where I've seen The Stompers, Aztec Two Step (before Neal retired), NRBQ (Terry's newer crew) and the Poussette-Dart Band. Most of the bars here have cover bands, although New World Tavern (beer bar) did have Barrence Whitfield a few years ago. The renovated Memorial Hall has some bigger sorts of acts. There I've seen America, The Asbury Jukes and John Hiatt. And Joan Jett (chaperoning my then 15-year-old middle daughter).
	♥ 12:49pm McGroovey: Golden State : I love this song. I got to chat with John Doe when he played at Monty Hall. Nice guy.
	12:49pm ledzeppelinsucks: In Amarillo trash like big pieces of styrofoam or long strips of stretch wrap fall out of the sky from regional landfills and the sustained winds, Amarillo is the windiest City in US and maybe the ugliest.
	12:49pm Anita James: And yet another great song
	♥ 12:49pm northguineahills: @Dave: Kinky Friedman is damn national hero....
	12:49pm XLax: Just took your "Spot a Troll" game DJ Michael. Wow I did horrible (staring at the ground kicking dirt)
	12:49pm clarke: New World Tavern - yes! opened for Spampinato Bros, there.
	12:50pm Andres: Kathleen Edwards #1!!
	♥ 12:50pm jpuva: sexiest voice in rock and roll
	12:50pm Andres: Kathleen Edwards #1!!
	♥ 12:52pm Squints: clarke, who'd you play with? I've seen the spamps a couple of times. But only out on the Cape. I know they played T-Bones in 2012 but I was out of town. I tend to stay out of T-Bones. There's two places in town where the chairs might go out the windows and that's one of 'em.
	♥ 12:52pm McGroovey: I haven't listened to Kathleen Edwards's new one yet. I should do that.
	12:52pm paul: Zoey has a pretty sexy voice, too.
	♥ 12:52pm Corey: Killer show! Thanks Michael and skeleton crew.
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Her other parts are OK too.
	12:53pm clarke: i did a solo opener for spamps - lou cataldo on drums for that show
	12:53pm ledzeppelinsucks: An Amarillo intersection is a constant scene of confrontation. A Waffle House neighbors an IHOP, I have seen it. A bewildering and disgusting site. www.google.com...
	♥ 12:53pm Handy Haversack: That John Doe song was fantastic -- and so was the whole show! Thanks, Michael! Thanks, Ruth! Have a great Marathon week, everyone! Long live the mighty WFMU!
	♥ 12:54pm Frank In Queens: I'd put Zooey's voice in the "charming" category.
	♥ 12:54pm Hubig Pie: She = Zoey D Him = ?
	♥ 12:54pm Squints: We went from deader than a doornail in 2008 and having a pretty hopping scene by 2013 or so.
	12:54pm clarke: i dunno McGroovey - my cursory skimming gave me little of her older albums!
	12:54pm ledzeppelinsucks: 'I don't like it here, let's go somewhere nicer, to that IHOP'
	♥ 12:55pm northguineahills: gracias, michael!
	♥ 12:55pm jpuva: great show as always Michael
	12:56pm clarke: POW POW POW INDEED, baby!!
	12:56pm paul: @hubig, no one remembers Him's name
	12:56pm Mister Dobalina: I heard that if you apply for a job at Waffle House there is a section in the application that asks if you know how to fight? Any fighting technique is accepted.
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shows been especially great ...you FMU-Js must be pumped about somethin'...
	♥ 12:56pm greg g: # 1 way to start Saturday ! thanks Michael & have a good weekend everyone ! take care
	♥ 12:56pm Frank In Queens: @Hubig, "Him" is M. Ward.
	12:57pm ledzeppelinsucks: Thanks for the delicious show. See you next week in PDT. Hopefully Standard Time will be gone for good.
	♥ 12:57pm Frank In Queens: "WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!"
	♥ 12:57pm Squints: I didn't know that. Middle daughter was into M Ward.
	12:57pm clarke: this has NOT been burnt granola!!
	12:58pm ledzeppelinsucks: Please everyone in North America contact your representatives and tell them to eradicate Standard Time.
	♥ 12:58pm myron feld: Happy Pat Cooper Day, everyone! Greatest interview EVER! EVER!
	♥ 12:58pm juan: Thanks for another terrific show as usual, Michael!
	♥ 12:58pm Richard: Another great show. Thanks, Michael! Catch you @marathon.
	♥ 12:58pm Hubig Pie: I miss Tom Snyder, ja !
	♥ 12:58pm Squints: LZS, you mean all daylight time all the time? Or just random time?
	12:59pm Bada bing: Haw! Hilarious. I grew up with greaseball bigmouths like this. Know-it-all human garbage.
	12:59pm clarke: jerry vale: not a bargain.
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No eradicate Savings Time & leave the clock alone.
	♥ 12:59pm Michael 98145: who let the chamber of commerce into the studio??
	12:59pm ledzeppelinsucks: No, I mean eliminate Standard Time which is 4 months long. Keep daylight time.
	♥ 1:00pm Michael 98145: thank you, again
	♥ 1:00pm Squints: LZS: Endorsed. Heartily.
	♥ 1:00pm Frank In Queens: And now, off to watch hockey....
	♥ 1:00pm Frank In Queens: Nice show Michael!

Greg, I hear you. We are going to drop off enough food for a Skeleton Army next Saturday, though, which makes up for it a little bit. I've never driven to JC before!
	11:10am Kpx: Michael might be nuts, but there's nothing nuts about his music selection. If that's a bloody Mary how come it's not red from the tomato juice.
	♥ 11:10am Eddy in Australia: Hi from just west of California
	♥ 11:11am Hoboken Jack: Hi Michael, Ruth, MVP Matt, Frank, Baby, Handy, everybody!
	11:11am Ruth Booth: Jack!
	11:11am clarke: where it's still summer!
	11:12am Juke Joint Jonny: No fooling' that Hot Rod Surfin' Hootlebeatnanny really is the greatest record of all time. til the next one.

	11:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Skeleton Army! ...Children of the Dragon's Teeth...
	11:13am ledzeppelinsucks: JFA has a lot of songs that are about this long.
	11:13am clarke: it's autumn everywhere.
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& about - this wide...
	♥ 11:14am Eddy in Australia: The reggae version of this, by the Clarendonians, is a certified No. 1 hit
	♥ 11:15am Dennis Diken: go Mikey! this is a cool version of "You Won't See Me"
	11:15am Andrew Hollywood: good morning to everybody's username
	♥ 11:19am Greg from ZONE 5: @Rev Rabbit: "The children of the niiiiiiiight!!"
	11:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Era when you could chart a single titled 'The Happy Organ'...
	11:20am frankmiggs: what's that little clicky sound in this recording?
	11:22am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: castanet?
	♥ 11:22am Michael Shelley: bass?
	♥ 11:23am Hughie Considine: Pork chop is slang for the bass...
	11:25am clarke: it is neither the slapping bass nor the castanet. but, darned if i know what it is. probably something that was just sitting around in the studio.
	11:25am Kpx: I guess you already know there are a whole generations of people that know nothing about music from the '80s on down. To them that's ancient history and unrelatable.
	11:26am clarke: when i covered this song, live, i hit the top of the kick drum.
	♥ 11:27am Hughie Considine: This may be the Ramones' sweetest, lightest pop confection.
	11:28am andy fuchs: great show from Bobby B and off to a great start with the awesome Mike Shelley !! Love FMU Saturdays :)
	11:28am XLax: Wow DJ Michael Shelly, plugged into the show with ear buds...volume was 100% blast out, but I don't mind cleaning brain bits off the buds for that blues tune.
	♥ 11:28am Hughie Considine: Not many of those Johnny downstrokes
	11:28am annette: the tamborine made my whole body hurt.
	11:30am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Road to Ruin 1978 Carrying the LP in High School - a scandal...
	11:31am Jeff formerly from Rahway: My mom hasn’t even been vaccinated one hour & she’s already running off a list of restaurants she wants to visit.
	11:32am clarke: ha ha ha ha
	11:33am Doug in JC: Good morning. Definitely one of my top 3 favorite Ramones songs
	11:33am clarke: MovieTime buckos!!
	11:33am XLax: Unless more than 90% of USA population got the treatment (it's not a vaccine) it is a waste of effort. Nowhere near 95% of people are that foolish.
	♥ 11:33am Handy Haversack: No one makes a monkey out of Han D. Sack! Morning, Doug!
	♥ 11:33am Hubig Pie: T. of the Sierra Madre = movie gold

	♥ 11:34am WR: It is still cold in the NE Tri-state area. brrrr.
	11:34am Doug in JC: Hey handy! They lied, first shot was way worse.
	♥ 11:34am Greg from ZONE 5: Sounds like the Shelley family should set sail for Key Largo! My favorite Bogey, and you get Eddie G as a bonus.
	♥ 11:35am greg g: Good Morning Michael & Everyone! I wasnt really leaning in that direction but I will pass along your PSA on the Shamrock Shake to friends and family
	♥ 11:35am Frank In Queens: March sucks.
	♥ 11:36am Handy Haversack: Feeling OK now, though, Doug? That's good! I got an appt. for a first shot! I had forgotten that I actually have a condition. Because I still think (and act like) I'm fourteen years old.
	11:36am clarke: i, for one, am glad that Oscar Month is over! watched the first few mins of both Psycho & NXNW just to see the genius of how hitch pulls you IN
	11:37am Doug in JC: I don't feel good and I'm not going anywhere today, but I am getting some light work done around the house. That's great for you! Still trying to get Shayna on the list
	♥ 11:37am greg g: i remember eating Spaghettios when I was 20 after not having them since I was about 10 and being so let down; quite gross
	♥ 11:37am Greg from ZONE 5: Lousy Smarch weather…
	11:37am Kpx: Sounds like they just found cheaper cruddier 'supposingly mint flavored' chemicals.
	11:37am clarke: march sucks is better than april sucks - when i lived on cape cod - april was absolutely cruel.
	♥ 11:37am Squints: Nah. We seem to be in late January. Which I prefer to be timely and then expeditiously gone. The only problem with March is that the last five years or so in New England, it lasts until Memorial Day.
	11:37am Moammar: I will take the vaccine in my eyeball if that's what it takes. I need to go to a bar. I need to go to the Kettle of Fish.
	♥ 11:37am Squints: What clarke said.
	♥ 11:38am Frank In Queens: Oh, April sucks too.
	♥ 11:38am Handy Haversack: Smarch ... the longest month. And it's still the 372nd of Smarch 2020! Moammar: My dad worked there when it was still on Macdougall. It's where he met my mom! And my friend is on the darts team now. I miss it, too.
	11:39am XLax: @greg g I remember having similar experience. I thought "Must be a bad batch in this can, can't possibly this horrible on purpose"
	11:39am Moammar: Honestly, WFMU has been such a bright spot throughout this ordeal. It will have an eternal place in my heart.
	11:39am clarke: we had a phrase on the cape: June-uary
	11:39am Dennis: Do we know whether there are any records by Bobby Vee in which Dylan played (from that period)?
	♥ 11:40am Michael Shelley: Moammar - for me too! (and Thanks!)
	11:40am annette: keeping up my "stash for life" love those new stickers and tees. anyone got a countdown till the fundraiser? YAY YAY YAY. KEEP OUR WORLD TIGHT.
	11:40am Moammar: @HandyHaversack: One of the city's highest quality jukeboxes, fine beer and beatnik heritage. What's not to love?
	11:40am gf2002: Speaking of Mike Curb - He produced one of the coolest instrumentals of the 60's, "Devil's Angels" by Davie Allan and the Arrows, "King Of The Fuzz Guitar". Also did music for the film "It's A Bikini World", which has some amazing music cameos and performances.
	11:40am Robbie Darling: Some Bobby D!
	♥ 11:41am Hughie Considine: I still can't accept that his voice became this sweet merely because he gave up cigarettes for a few months. Where did this voice come from?
	11:41am XLax: I worked outside on Nantucket, i remember having to work with -50 farenheit wind chill temperature. Freezing is a blessing by comparison.
	♥ 11:41am Pedro in Arlington: Bob makes good booze. Talk about that. A bit pricey but he also does the bottle art.
	11:41am Robbie Darling: Thank you Michael!
	11:41am annette: @moa. yes. we all keep together. yes we will.
	11:42am Robbie Darling: I've been to Heaven's Door! I like it.
	♥ 11:42am Handy Haversack: And pinball! And affordable bottles of beer! God, I miss life. I also encourage everyone to check out Key Wilde's "Talking WFMU" once this morning's Double Dip Recess is archived. It should get played on every show. It so captures what an absolute gift the station has been this past year.
	11:42am clarke: speaking of booze - where the heck is Baby!!!???
	♥ 11:43am Hubig Pie: It's a Bikini World, - featuring The Castways singing Liar, Liar

	11:44am clarke: awfully quiet, t'day, mate!
	♥ 11:44am greg g: @ XLax Yes! spaghettios and shamrock shakes, the opposite of an "acquired taste"... what would you call that?
	11:44am Moammar: ... having plenty fuuuuuuuuun ....
	♥ 11:45am Frank In Queens: @greg g, self-hatred.
	11:45am clarke: overall, it seems like it was a light winter for the east coast - SO FAR>>???
	♥ 11:46am Squints: I don't mind mint. But I like my mint over here and my other flavors (shakes, chocolate, whatnot) over there.
	♥ 11:46am Hoboken Jack: Hey hey Dennis, Greg, Jeff!
	11:46am annette: @greg. spaghettios over raviolis ???
	♥ 11:46am Handy Haversack: greg g: Stockholm syndrome? clarke, Feb. was bruuuuutal.
	11:46am Andrew in Toronto: Hey there Jack!
	11:46am clarke: burnt?
	11:47am Dennis: Not as light as last winter, Clarke, at least in central eastern NJ - there was one snowstorm, on Mischeif Night! This year.... yikes!
	♥ 11:47am Squints: @clarke, if you put the whammy on the weather we've had so far, I will give you SUCH A PINCH. Don't make me come over there.
	11:47am XLax: @Greg g, Exactly, "taste bud maturity" is what I would call it, the OPPOSITE of acquired taste. The only thing that I remember being so shockingly bad was my first taste of beer. (That beer thing is not a problem now of course)
	11:48am clarke: ha ha - everytime i check my app for wellfleet it was in the 40's!!
	11:48am Doug in JC: I made peanut butter cups last week. Surprisingly easy and so much less nasty than the commercial version
	11:48am gf2002: Yes! Seeing The Castaways is alone worth the price of admission to "It's A Bikini World". Also featuring the Animals, and Pat and Lolly Vegas before they became Redbone. I actually like that film as bad as its reputation might be, I love the music and the 60's scenery.
	11:49am annette: @clarke. great snow shower at 4 am. yoo missed it
	11:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Castaways - red velvet lounge - bikini dancers - 13 year old drummer. Crazy Lynchian.
	11:49am clarke: what is nice about being in the south is that, yes, you get that arctic dip that dilled texas, BUT next week your are wearing shorts
	11:50am ledzeppelinsucks: clarke there are a lot of places like that
	11:50am gf2002: And Sid Haig too! lol
	11:50am clarke: =you
	11:50am Kpx: @greg g: I call it super affordable. Which more and more people are finding out, unfortunately.
	11:51am clarke: sure, i mean i grew up here, but one forgets
	♥ 11:52am greg g: @ Frank in Queens Yes! @Handy Yes! @annett never!! & @ Xlax Exactly!! . i still will eat PB & J though if time is tight
	♥ 11:52am myron feld: Best solo ever right here in this JD McPherson? Quite possibly.
	11:53am XLax: @Kpx I have perfected home-made dog food (good for future reference indeed). Basically. is refried beans.
	♥ 11:53am Frank In Queens: Nothing wrong with PB&J provided you're using the PB you have to stir when you first open the jar.
	11:53am clarke: i need to find out about these Sam Fuller scripts.
	♥ 11:53am greg g: @ Kpx yes unfortunately the truth.
	♥ 11:54am Frank In Queens: @clarke Shock Proof was directed by Douglas Sirk.
	♥ 11:54am Handy Haversack: Yeah, Frank. I am, sadly, almost out of this hot-pepper orange jelly I got at a farmers market in Maine last summer.
	11:54am clarke: i like Sirk - very dark
	♥ 11:55am Frank In Queens: That sounds good Handy. Sadly, I can't keep PB in the house otherwise the jar will be empty shortly after being opened.
	11:55am gf2002: "you're sipping your Darjeeling, and staring at the ceiling" is one of the best rhyming lyrics I've ever heard
	11:55am zivilars: Man, I love this show – thanks for always making my Saturday, Michael!
	♥ 11:55am northguineahills: @Handy: Father Ted's Mrs Doyle Go on, Go on, Go on....
	11:55am clarke: i bet christina hides the PB in a chef boyardi can!
	11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: PB made from peanuts. Radical - I know... Everybody got the FrenchPop Mania...
	♥ 11:56am Frank In Queens: @clarke hahaha, nah she's a fiend for it like I am.
	11:56am ?: Who was singing that awesome song w chorus 2 for the price of one?
	11:57am Moammar: My strongest French music recommendation is Stella, who started with parodies of all those saccharine yeye records, and then went on to make a long string of fabulous pop records in the mid-to-late 60s. Des succes Numeros uns!
	11:57am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Have discovered Pepper Jelly.
	11:57am clarke: ha ha ha that's bcuz you'd probably throw it out!
	♥ 11:57am Michael Shelley: Ever try this - your mind will blow www.maranathafoods.com...
	11:58am Moammar: Also, the Swinging Mademoiselle compilation is well worth a listen. Lots of stuff that would fit right in here en francais.
	11:58am clarke: mind already blown at this show!!!!!
	♥ 11:58am Frank In Queens: Michael, that looks like one of them $11 jars of PB.
	11:58am XLax: Haha DJ Micheal, I think I might rape that PB after reading the description.
	♥ 11:58am StringOFperils: PB that's too good for the J.
	♥ 11:59am greg g: @ Frank , yes love PB . unfortunately the two dudes I live with (who are under the age of 11) wont go for the kind you stir up
	♥ 12:00pm greg g: but thanks for the link Michael. may have to have my own personal jar in the pantry
	♥ 12:00pm Frank In Queens: @greg g, that was me as a kid, but that was also all I knew. I think I cried the first time I tried natural PB.
	12:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JuniorBrown !
	♥ 12:00pm Baja Joe: Hidey ho Michael.
	12:00pm Doug in JC: Did anyone get the swag for life email yet?
	12:00pm clarke: juniper's fave!!
	♥ 12:01pm luka: aye, Doug.
	♥ 12:01pm Handy Haversack: Yeah, Doug -- last week?
	♥ 12:01pm Baja Joe: @Doug in JC, yup!
	12:02pm gf2002: I saw Junior play live in Boston in Fall '95. I stood right in front of him so I could see what he was doing on that Guit-Steel. Richie Havens was playing that same night in the other room of the club. Amazing show - I couldn't hear properly for days after that show
	♥ 12:02pm greg g: @ Frank yeah Ive got to educate these kids . well I'm starting with WFMU
	12:02pm seth from muddy creek: Saturday grooves!
	12:02pm Doug in JC: I just searched my inbox and found it. Thanks everyone!
	♥ 12:02pm Frank In Queens: @Doug, haven't gotten mine and I just emailed McGasko about it this morning.
	♥ 12:04pm Hubig Pie: Get some sync-o-pa-shun courtesy of Zigaboo Modeliste
	12:04pm clarke: it's crawfish season, ya'll!!!!
	♥ 12:04pm myron feld: The "Sing A Simple Song" riff was made for The Meters.
	♥ 12:05pm Squints: I've seen Junior three times, all at the sadly gone Johnny D's in Somerville. The first time in 2007 he finished with some surf-oriented freakout and some guy had his girlfriend in the scrum dancing like that girl at the end of the beach party movies. At enjoyable as THAT was, I asked her gently to do that two steps to her right because I was trying to see, you know, the guitar player.
	♥ 12:05pm myron feld: My brother-in-law was Zig's sound man/tour mgr for several years. I'll get some stories.
	♥ 12:05pm greg g: nice one Michael . was in Ithaca NY a couple of weeks ago and got a nice copy of The Best of the Meters with this at Angry Mom Records. a total # 1!
	12:06pm Nate K: Shades of “Cissy Strut” on that Sly Stone track.
	12:07pm BadBob: re: s4l email i just found mine in my spam folder
	♥ 12:07pm StringOFperils: Sylvester Stewart was undoubtedly listening to music from NOLA on the way up.
	12:07pm Mister Dobalina: This song is as cool as the weather out side... 24°
	12:07pm Nate K: The existence of Good Vibrations (and all the bands on the label) amidst the Troubles is one of rock’s greatest triumphs.
	12:09pm Moammar: It's tough to be anyone's man when your voice hasn't changed.
	12:10pm clarke: hmm. ask Ronnie Dawson.
	♥ 12:11pm Hughie Considine: Apparently, Andrew Loog Oldham enlisted John and Paul as the Stones struggled to come up with single No. 2.
	12:11pm clarke: they saw jagger/richards on the street and said they had a song for them!
	12:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Legend is AndrewLoog locked Mick & Keef in a kitchen until they wrote a song ?
	♥ 12:12pm Hughie Considine: Nope, Clarke -- that's the accepted story but not what happened.
	12:12pm clarke: according to something i read
	♥ 12:13pm Hughie Considine: Check out A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs, a podcast by Andrew Hickey -- very well researched. You might learn something!
	♥ 12:14pm StringOFperils: This Sanford Clark record is great; I've never heard this. Sonically, timbrally, trippy.
	12:14pm clarke: too busy writing 500 songs
	12:14pm gf2002: @Squints - Johnny D's! RIP that and all the music venues in and around Boston that I went to and played in. I can't remember which club on Landsdowne I saw Junior in '95, I'm thinking Mama Kin? Not sure if it was Avalon or Axis. But I know it was amazing and it looked like everyone who worked at the Boston guitar shops was in the crowd that night to see Junior
	12:14pm DG: That's funny Roe covered that, since the Beatles used to do "Sheila" way back when...Roe said he met John once & he told him that, & he didn't believe him until the "Live at the Star Club" album came out & it was on it. John has also said, in an interview, that they finished "I Wanna Be Your Man" "in front of" the Stones (they needed a follow-up to their 1st hit), so maybe it was partly written before. When I saw Richards on his solo tour in '88, that was part of his set.
	12:16pm clarke: i was at that Mama Kin Junior Brown show! hah!
	♥ 12:17pm StringOFperils: Saw Junior Brown in Toronto a couple of times in the 90s. He IS a freak, and thank goodness for that.
	12:17pm clarke: (but, i did not work in a guitar shop in boston)
	♥ 12:18pm HyperDose: Afternoon, gang! Who's pumped for marathon?!
	♥ 12:18pm northguineahills: Every time I hear Tommy Roe, it makes me hungry for salmon roe...
	♥ 12:18pm myron feld: In Andrew Loog Oldham's "Stoned" he recounts the "I Wanna Be Your Man" story. I can't find my copy but I know it involved running into John and Paul coming out of a pub and saying the Stones needed a song. Maybe someone out there in radioland can find their copy?
	♥ 12:19pm Squints: Only show I ever got around to seeing at the old Valaon (once the older kids were mid-teens and thus could sit for my youngest) was the Little Steven Keep Rock And Roll Alive tour in 2006. The Charms, the Chesterfield Kings, Supersuckers, maybe one other act, and the New York Dolls. Great time.
	♥ 12:20pm Squints: um, Avalon. Sorry.
	♥ 12:20pm greg g: yes to the gladiators, pavement & the fmu!!
	♥ 12:20pm Greg from ZONE 5: My favorite band, 1993-2000
	12:20pm clarke: ah!
	12:20pm gf2002: @clarke Small world! Thanks for confirming Mama Kin. That was an awesome show, one of the best I saw in Boston. Craziest show I ever saw, hands down, was Rev. Horton Heat at the Paradise, with Possum Dixon opening for the Rev. They couldn't finish their set after someone threw a beer at them and it landed on a guitar amp which blew. They were covering "Like A Virgin". Horton Heat was epic that night
	♥ 12:20pm Frank In Queens: The Charms were a good band. Saw them a few times.
	12:21pm hip: You make me happy when I was sad! Long life WFMU!!! And yes, cut your hair! :-D
	♥ 12:21pm northguineahills: I told my my partner I haven't shaved in three weekks. She said that she hadn't shaved in months (which is odd is she is usually imaculate w/ her appearance) The last year has been odd....
	♥ 12:21pm Frank In Queens: My hair is the longest it's been in over 20 years. And I never listen to what Malkmus says.
	12:21pm Andres: Korea! Korea! Korea!
	12:22pm clarke: saw Horton at Avalon, coincidentally
	12:22pm gf2002: No Big Hair!!!

	♥ 12:22pm northguineahills: @Andres: Career! Career! Career!
	12:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Literally don't remember last time my hair was cut. @ all.
	♥ 12:22pm northguineahills: greg beat me to it!
	♥ 12:23pm greg g: malkmus' latest is good too
	12:23pm Andres: I know but that was my personal favourite misheard lyric ever :)
	12:24pm Moammar: One haircut in a year. I grew a beard that made me look like the lost third Smith Brother, but the wifely objections made the situation untenable.
	12:24pm David watts: you wish he never joined led zeppelin?????!!!
	♥ 12:24pm Baja Joe: You wish what!? That JP never joined LZ? That would have ruined my teenage years. What alternative band would there be? Yikes.
	♥ 12:25pm greg g: thanks northguineahills ! i rarely/never am quicker on the draw than anyone ( ask my wife) rest assured you will get the next one!
	♥ 12:26pm Hughie Considine: John Cale > J.J. Cale > Pauline Kael > kale
	12:26pm gf2002: I almost cut my hair, it happened just the other day. It was getting kinda long, but I felt like letting my freak flag fly.

	12:28pm gf2002: But I feel like I owe it to someone.
	♥ 12:29pm northguineahills: reminds me, I have a MS Teams interview in two weeks, so, I'll need to cut my hair....
	12:29pm ledzeppelinsucks: I wandered the neighborhood for a bagel, there are none. Then I came back to work and fouind a bag of bagel chips in the trash. I am using the chips.
	12:31pm Juke Joint Jonny: Hard to get em all together, yes.
	♥ 12:31pm Michael Shelley: whats an MS TEAMS interview...?
	♥ 12:31pm Michael Shelley: and good luck, whatever it is
	12:32pm clarke: i was wondering if Michael Shelley had some kinda Team.
	♥ 12:32pm Squints: Career. Korea. Whatever. Here on the South Shore of MA, sounding it out doesn't help thanks to the Law Of Conservation Of Rs. (All Rs dropped must appear, usually incongruously, at the end of some other word.)
	♥ 12:33pm Handy Haversack: I wanna be on Michaels' Team! (It's Microsoft's video-conference and remote-collaboration platform.)
	♥ 12:33pm northguineahills: I prefer untuned brass.... @Michael: Microsoft Teams Interview for a a third iteration of a job interview. (I'm looking shaggy right now). gracias, michael!

	♥ 12:34pm northguineahills: or what Handy said...
	♥ 12:35pm Handy Haversack: (I guess the team I imagine has more than one Michael?) Squints: Cohasset? Scituate? Hingham? Weymouth? Quincy? Hull?
	♥ 12:35pm Michael Shelley: I should have a team! All the uniforms will have #1 on the back!
	♥ 12:35pm Hughie Considine: The Lyres were a helluva great live band -- caught them at Maxwell's.

	♥ 12:37pm dave wuz here: the lyres are on the short list of things that make my breast swell with regional pride
	♥ 12:37pm Michael 98145: the hits just keep comin'
	♥ 12:37pm Squints: Plymouth. Not quite the new Portland, ME. But Hyannis without the knifings. (Sadly, not without the opioids. Belive me. I know.)
	12:38pm clarke: indeed, sir.
	♥ 12:38pm Squints: Grew up just east of Hartford. The Reducers are my absolutely favorite band.
	♥ 12:38pm Ciggy: I concur. Lyres live at Brownies!
	12:39pm gf2002: Reminding me of the joke "What's the difference between a one "L" lama, a two "L" lama, and a three "L" lama?
	12:39pm clarke: can we stop at Stuckey's???? PLEASE!!
	♥ 12:39pm Montmaster J: Hey Squints. Love 'em too. They are very people as well.
	♥ 12:40pm Hubig Pie: Thought my head was gonna pop when I tried to watch The Departed
	♥ 12:40pm Michael Shelley: pecan log!
	♥ 12:40pm Montmaster J: nice
	♥ 12:40pm HyperDose: Always love it when they honk those tonks
	12:40pm ledzeppelinsucks: That bitch at the Hyannis Salvation Army Store turned Karen and asked for my ID after hassling me about staging the shirts I was buying with a credit card. When she saw the San Francisco address she thought she had caught AIDS.
	♥ 12:40pm Squints: We thought about Hull when we briefly considered downsizing. (Short story: 3 dogs, and she gardens. Not happening.) Then in the last dozen years Plymouth got kind of a scene so we're fine staying put.
	12:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...' 100s of country songs about hippies - they're all good '... Who will understand why these things amuse me & makes me happy...
	♥ 12:42pm northguineahills: I've found redneck gay bars in FL (and I'm cis-straight male). I think I first heard that Nat Stuckney via Doug Schulkind.
	12:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: NewHampshuh !
	12:43pm paddy in mobilewan: so happy for new Queers!
	12:43pm clarke: what's that restuarant in Plymouth that started booking some cool acts, before all this madness??
	♥ 12:43pm greg g: @ Revoltuion Rabbit Nov63 Second that!
	♥ 12:44pm dave wuz here: long way from "this place sucks"
	♥ 12:44pm greg g: this is some pop perfection from the queers
	♥ 12:45pm Greg from ZONE 5: From the band that brought you "I Can't Stop Farting" and "I Hate Your Fucking Guts"
	12:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: California is - Mars to some NewEnglanders... & in Santa Barbara I tried describing where I was from. New Hampshire? New England? ...Yeah you know where Boston is. ...Boston - ???...
	♥ 12:45pm Listener Baby: First break today. Been huffing. Hope everyone is rocking and groovin’
	12:45pm Mister Dobalina: Today I learned what cis-straight means.
	12:45pm ledzeppelinsucks: There is a gay bar in Amarillo. I went there on Easter Sunday.
	12:45pm clarke: dang Baby!! you've been quiet
	♥ 12:46pm Frank In Queens: Great John Doe song.
	♥ 12:46pm Michael Shelley: SO SO SO GOOD! GREAT LYRICS (poetic even) GREAT MELODY GREAT HARMONY!
	♥ 12:47pm dave wuz here: "There is a gay bar in Amarillo"- by kinky friedman
	12:47pm Anita James: Yeah! Great song!
	♥ 12:47pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: Hey there. Mr Sweet Corn had me cut his hair and now he says he’s never going to a barber shop again.
	12:47pm clarke: is it vine season in the Golden State?
	♥ 12:47pm Handy Haversack: Whose is the other voice?
	♥ 12:48pm jpuva: Kathleen Edwards does the harmony
	♥ 12:48pm Michael 98145: nice
	12:48pm Moammar: This is fabulous.
	12:48pm paul: RIP, Michael Stanley
	♥ 12:48pm northguineahills: I had a PE teacher in junior high named Jim Lauderdale. Unfortunately, not the muscian...
	♥ 12:48pm Squints: We have a converted church in Plymouth call the Spire Center where I've seen The Stompers, Aztec Two Step (before Neal retired), NRBQ (Terry's newer crew) and the Poussette-Dart Band. Most of the bars here have cover bands, although New World Tavern (beer bar) did have Barrence Whitfield a few years ago. The renovated Memorial Hall has some bigger sorts of acts. There I've seen America, The Asbury Jukes and John Hiatt. And Joan Jett (chaperoning my then 15-year-old middle daughter).
	♥ 12:49pm McGroovey: Golden State : I love this song. I got to chat with John Doe when he played at Monty Hall. Nice guy.
	12:49pm ledzeppelinsucks: In Amarillo trash like big pieces of styrofoam or long strips of stretch wrap fall out of the sky from regional landfills and the sustained winds, Amarillo is the windiest City in US and maybe the ugliest.
	12:49pm Anita James: And yet another great song
	♥ 12:49pm northguineahills: @Dave: Kinky Friedman is damn national hero....
	12:49pm XLax: Just took your "Spot a Troll" game DJ Michael. Wow I did horrible (staring at the ground kicking dirt)
	12:49pm clarke: New World Tavern - yes! opened for Spampinato Bros, there.
	12:50pm Andres: Kathleen Edwards #1!!
	♥ 12:50pm jpuva: sexiest voice in rock and roll
	12:50pm Andres: Kathleen Edwards #1!!
	♥ 12:52pm Squints: clarke, who'd you play with? I've seen the spamps a couple of times. But only out on the Cape. I know they played T-Bones in 2012 but I was out of town. I tend to stay out of T-Bones. There's two places in town where the chairs might go out the windows and that's one of 'em.
	♥ 12:52pm McGroovey: I haven't listened to Kathleen Edwards's new one yet. I should do that.
	12:52pm paul: Zoey has a pretty sexy voice, too.
	♥ 12:52pm Corey: Killer show! Thanks Michael and skeleton crew.
	12:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Her other parts are OK too.
	12:53pm clarke: i did a solo opener for spamps - lou cataldo on drums for that show
	12:53pm ledzeppelinsucks: An Amarillo intersection is a constant scene of confrontation. A Waffle House neighbors an IHOP, I have seen it. A bewildering and disgusting site. www.google.com...
	♥ 12:53pm Handy Haversack: That John Doe song was fantastic -- and so was the whole show! Thanks, Michael! Thanks, Ruth! Have a great Marathon week, everyone! Long live the mighty WFMU!
	♥ 12:54pm Frank In Queens: I'd put Zooey's voice in the "charming" category.
	♥ 12:54pm Hubig Pie: She = Zoey D Him = ?
	♥ 12:54pm Squints: We went from deader than a doornail in 2008 and having a pretty hopping scene by 2013 or so.
	12:54pm clarke: i dunno McGroovey - my cursory skimming gave me little of her older albums!
	12:54pm ledzeppelinsucks: 'I don't like it here, let's go somewhere nicer, to that IHOP'
	♥ 12:55pm northguineahills: gracias, michael!
	♥ 12:55pm jpuva: great show as always Michael
	12:56pm clarke: POW POW POW INDEED, baby!!
	12:56pm paul: @hubig, no one remembers Him's name
	12:56pm Mister Dobalina: I heard that if you apply for a job at Waffle House there is a section in the application that asks if you know how to fight? Any fighting technique is accepted.
	12:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Shows been especially great ...you FMU-Js must be pumped about somethin'...
	♥ 12:56pm greg g: # 1 way to start Saturday ! thanks Michael & have a good weekend everyone ! take care
	♥ 12:56pm Frank In Queens: @Hubig, "Him" is M. Ward.
	12:57pm ledzeppelinsucks: Thanks for the delicious show. See you next week in PDT. Hopefully Standard Time will be gone for good.
	♥ 12:57pm Frank In Queens: "WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!"
	♥ 12:57pm Squints: I didn't know that. Middle daughter was into M Ward.
	12:57pm clarke: this has NOT been burnt granola!!
	12:58pm ledzeppelinsucks: Please everyone in North America contact your representatives and tell them to eradicate Standard Time.
	♥ 12:58pm myron feld: Happy Pat Cooper Day, everyone! Greatest interview EVER! EVER!
	♥ 12:58pm juan: Thanks for another terrific show as usual, Michael!
	♥ 12:58pm Richard: Another great show. Thanks, Michael! Catch you @marathon.
	♥ 12:58pm Hubig Pie: I miss Tom Snyder, ja !
	♥ 12:58pm Squints: LZS, you mean all daylight time all the time? Or just random time?
	12:59pm Bada bing: Haw! Hilarious. I grew up with greaseball bigmouths like this. Know-it-all human garbage.
	12:59pm clarke: jerry vale: not a bargain.
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No eradicate Savings Time & leave the clock alone.
	♥ 12:59pm Michael 98145: who let the chamber of commerce into the studio??
	12:59pm ledzeppelinsucks: No, I mean eliminate Standard Time which is 4 months long. Keep daylight time.
	♥ 1:00pm Michael 98145: thank you, again
	♥ 1:00pm Squints: LZS: Endorsed. Heartily.
	♥ 1:00pm Frank In Queens: And now, off to watch hockey....
	♥ 1:00pm Frank In Queens: Nice show Michael!
	1:01pm clarke: Vampire On Titus!!
	♥ 1:01pm Michael Shelley: THANK ALL!
