	3:16am Scott67: Moving Mountains is right! That was pretty epic! 👍😎
	⚡ 3:17am Hoboken Jack: Hullo Brian, Scott67, Mariano, all! That was the coolest thing I've heard from Mountain Movers.
	3:19am Brian D: Duke! Hoboken Jack checking in on his way home from a show!
	3:22am Scott67: G'day Jack.👍😎
	3:32am luc_m: morning all
	⚡ 3:49am Hoboken Jack: Am looking forward to Godspeed playing White Eagle Hall.
	3:49am Brian D: Hey Jack. You know, I've never seen them live...
	3:51am luc_m: long time ago, but I've seen them 3 times: well worth the effort
	⚡ 3:57am Hoboken Jack: I saw them once several years ago in the less friendly confines of Terminal 5.
	4:16am luc_m: and then there was John Cage
	4:43am fred: Good morning Brian and everyone
	4:44am Brian D: Greetings, Fred.
	4:46am dan in wisconsin: Mornin' to all fellow night owls. Thanks for the Godspeed. I'm excited for live shows again. Seeing Dead Can Dance in October, with fingers crossed...
	4:48am fred: I might go to a show later today... First I need to figure out how to get there though
	4:49am Brian D: Good morning, Dan. Yes, some return to normalcy. Seeing "some" of the Mekons later today.
	4:50am dan in wisconsin: ooohh....I love Mekons. Ghosts of American Astronauts is a fantastic track.
	5:01am wizard frog: bwa hahaha them's your choices! - condemned to a world of servitude depending on how you choose to fit into it
	5:03am Brian D: Servant to fools here, Wiz.
	5:05am fred: Last weekend I read "Finding The Raga", a really interesting book about Indian music. Now I'm reading "The Master and Margarita", hopefully I'll get more books next week, including Kenny G's one about UbuWeb. And there's a new Colson Whitehead coming next month...
	5:06am Brian D: Funny, Fred. I just read a review of a new bio of Ravi Shankar. Master and Margarita is worth the read.
	5:07am dan in wisconsin: Currently reading Haruki Murakami's Kafka On The Shore, and there's a beautiful zen rock garden library that factors into the story. Here in Spring Green, Wisco there's a slightly kitschy tourist attraction called The House on the Rock. It's where the carousel dimensional portal from Neil Gaiman's American Gods is derived from. That Raga book sounds great.
	5:10am dan in wisconsin: Murakami is an avid vinyl listener too. Take a look at his official website for a small photo tour of his writing desk and album shelf. Dude has thousands of records.
	5:13am Brian D: Murakami rules. My favorite of his is the novella After Dark. Tons of music references in there.
	5:22am Brian D: Spoiler alert. FBI officials believe the train derailments in the Pacific NW of the US are related to an "environmental terrorist" group that's linked with native tribes in the area: www.theguardian.com...
	5:55am Brian D: Thank you all for your patience and listenership. Hope you enjoyed the music. Stay safe and have a great Sunday.
	5:56am wizard frog: Thanks for the show - have a great Sunday!
	5:57am fred: Thanks Brian!
	6:00am Scott67: G'day Brian.✌😎
	6:00am Scott67: Thanks Brian.✌😎
