	♥ 3:02pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Todd and all other listeners!
	🎸 ♥ 3:03pm MonicaC: Hey, Medson! Hi Todd! It’s a beautiful day in AC! I’m ready to be rocked and rolled.
	3:03pm Frank In Queens: Griff is a good name!
	3:04pm clarke: oh hey - i fell into a lake, this morning. ha ha. had to go get some rice to put my phone into. ha ha ha.
	3:04pm Frank In Queens: Clarke, when someone tells you to go jump in a lake, they’re not being literal!
	3:04pm clarke: the mud here is like black ice!!! slipped and well..fell. all the way in.
	🎸 ♥ 3:05pm medson: Hi Monica.
	♥ 3:05pm Handy Haversack: Lakes. The silent killer.
	3:05pm clarke: the good news is that my phone is not silent!
	3:06pm MFlynn: Heck, My wife fell in the Gulf of Mexico once!
	3:06pm Ike-O: peace and greetings from vegas babies! psyched for this week's show!
	3:06pm clarke: but it IS deadly. howdy HH, Griff!!
	♥ 3:06pm TonyR: I soaked my cheap candy bar phone and the rice kinda worked after I opened it. I think the rice draws moisture from points that won't drain on their own. Just sticking the whole enchilada in your rice bin? I dunno.
	3:06pm WM: I hope you asked Paul Jones about his participation on Carla Bley's Escalator over the Hill. What parts did he sing or play on?
	3:07pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey everyone! Part one of my wonderful conversation with Paul Jones coming up soon!
	3:07pm clarke: i submerged the phone and it works now - after 4 hours
	♥ 3:08pm TonyR: As they say in "Salo", "I can't eat the rice."
	3:08pm clarke: and paul jones - whatta voice!!
	3:08pm clarke: whawts Salo??
	3:08pm clarke: whawts Salo??
	♥ 3:09pm TonyR: A pretty sick Pasolini movie.
	♥ 3:09pm Matt Clarke: Ready! Steady on, Todd!
	3:10pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Matt! Happy Birthday to your Gramps! Hope he's a fan of The Manfreds!
	3:11pm Frank In Queens: That sucks, clarke, but I’m glad the phone is working after that.
	3:11pm clarke: ah. speaking of movies - saw The Naked Kiss (again) this week.
	3:12pm clarke: ah no - everything is fine and the "swim" kinda was refreshing. all good in sugar land.
	3:13pm Frank In Queens: Nice clarke. Love e that one!
	3:14pm clarke: i like it - but, the children thing is a little strange to me.
	♥ 3:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, clarke -- glad you made it out the lake, too! Did you have to be submerged in rice as well?
	3:14pm clarke: it certainly was ground-breaking for its time. 'elo kiddies!!!!
	3:15pm clarke: i am submerging in lo mein at the moment!!
	3:16pm Victrola Tom: Greetings all!
	♥ 3:16pm TonyR: @clarke: Fart so we can follow the bubbles!
	♥ 3:17pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Victrola Tom!
	3:17pm clarke: well, had to go to asian market to get the rice, so picked up some food-line fare.
	3:17pm Victrola Tom: Hey Handy, what’d I miss?
	♥ 3:18pm TonyR: The rice left a starchy film on the inside of my screen. So the phone "worked", but I had to ditch it.
	3:19pm clarke: wow, i guess i am lucky that my phone is fine!
	3:20pm Eric R: this is pretty great, Todd!
	♥ 3:20pm TonyR: My SIM was unfazed. Popped it in an alternate phone (unlocked GSM) and instantly had all my logs, messages, and contacts!
	♥ 3:20pm Handy Haversack: Victrola Tom: Some rocking, some rolling. Pretty good stuff! Anyone else in Central Park last night for the show. Saw quite a few FMU shirts. The Galactic Tour shirt stands out!
	3:20pm Victrola Tom: If I had to guess, I probably missed some great rock & roll!
	3:20pm clarke: that's good tony!!
	♥ 3:21pm Hoboken Jack: Hi TOPT, Tom, Handy, autumn Bagpipe, MVP Matt, Frank, MFlynn, Medson Man, Andrew, all!
	3:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Eric! Hey Jack!
	🎸 ♥ 3:21pm medson: Hey Jack
	♥ 3:22pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack! Have a good Bandcamp Friday?
	3:25pm clarke: by "diary" am assuming he means Calendar??
	3:26pm Frank In Queens: I never get tired of hearing stories about the Ealing Club.
	3:26pm Listener Robert: Sorry, wrong. Thor, or Thunor, is the Norse god of thunder. Odin's a lot of things, but not a thunder god.
	♥ 3:30pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Jack!
	3:31pm clarke: i happen to love the sound quality of a cassette!
	3:31pm MFlynn: Hey Jack!!
	3:32pm clarke: lol!!!
	♥ 3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Change of the Century' (May 1960) perhaps : en.wikipedia.org... ...I found it in the big Smithsonian History of Jazz thing.
	3:34pm WM: Brian Jones listened to Ornette Coleman? I guess I should not be suprised...
	3:34pm Eric R: the riff used on 19th Nervous Breakdown
	3:35pm clarke: the levels seem a little low on this TopT
	3:35pm Listener Robert: If Todd wanted to be nasty, he could quip, "They only became the Rolling Stones because you weren't it it."
	♥ 3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whatever Brian's shortcomings - he was known for being conspicuously well-informed.
	3:36pm Eric R: interesting to think, though, what the Rolling Stones would have been with Paul. Also Led Zep with Terry Reid.
	3:36pm clarke: i find it so strange that the guy could play ANY instrument but could NOT write a song to save his life (literally).
	3:37pm sufferwords: that last bit of detail really gave insight into Brian Jones, he was music- he could play it and just importantly see it in others
	3:38pm clarke: (just saying that if he could have written songs he wouldn't have been messing around with the pipes of pan tapes as much and not hanging around his pool!!)
	♥ 3:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'd say even that high-level Technical Musicianship & Songwriting are seldom found together in the same person in Rawk - while in Jazz they can be (there it's 'Composing')...
	3:40pm clarke: townshend??
	3:41pm Eric R: this Davies thing is pretty stunning
	3:41pm clarke: mccartney?
	3:42pm clarke: yes - this whole thang is FAB!!
	3:42pm johnk77: great work 1 of the leading singers on that early uk scene was long john baldry
	♥ 3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Townshend is a MultiInstrumentalist, Polymath & a Composer. & - an important Electric Guitarist. But - JeffBeck he is not. Macca & Hendrix qualify - in Rawk terms of 'Technical'...
	3:43pm clarke: but hendrix 'forgot' how to write kinda
	3:44pm Frank In Queens: Jack Bruce
	3:44pm clarke: and townshend could play ALL kinds of instruments and WELL!!
	3:44pm clarke: and mccartney is the greatest bass-player of all time, in my book.
	3:45pm clarke: why? you ask?? because his bass lines literally changed music.
	♥ 3:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hendrix was @ the Crossroads of everything - trying to be a sort of Jazz player in a Pop world including his own Hits. But he never wasn't a Writer. JackBruce could Write that's true... but he Played & Sang better.
	3:46pm clarke: now THIS is a drum sound!
	♥ 3:48pm Hoboken Jack: Handy, not my most thrilling Bandcamp Friday, but I did finally snag the Motorists album. You?
	3:48pm Frank In Queens: But he could do both, unlike Brian Jones, which is what prompted the discussion. So I think Jack Bruce fits the criteria.
	♥ 3:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...GeorgeHarrison for that matter...
	3:48pm clarke: oh, and Rev: Roy Wood
	♥ 3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: clarke nice.
	3:49pm clarke: ROY WOOD!!!!!!!!!
	3:49pm clarke: ROY FUCKING WOOD!!!!!!
	3:50pm Richard Whig: once again, spectacular conversation here. (and stellar soundtrack natch) Todd once again showing us he is one of THEE best interviewers there be! bravo!
	3:50pm Chloe Q: Groovy! Great show as always.
	3:50pm clarke: (who also 'forgot' how to write a Song)
	♥ 3:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...also: Did the Manfreds & TheZombies steal each other's mascots :p ...
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm medson: Perfect day for this music and interview. Beautiful to just sit outside and tune in. Thanks Todd
	3:53pm Frank In Queens: I’m hitting the backyard in about 30 min as well, medson.
	♥ 3:53pm Handy Haversack: I had to make up for being out of town on September's, Jack, so we went deep. I justified it by reminding myself I have a birthday next week! clarke, really gonna need the Orioles to step up these two games ...
	3:53pm Frank In Queens: Well, whenever this game ends anyway.
	3:54pm clarke: nice day in Queens, mate?
	🎸 ♥ 3:54pm medson: Enjoy Frank.
	3:54pm Frank In Queens: Absolute beauty, clarke!
	3:54pm clarke: HH - the orioles are sunk i think. they can't step up when they have had GREAT opportunities!! (time for a new OWNER!!)
	♥ 3:55pm Hoboken Jack: What day is the B-day, Handy??
	3:56pm clarke: Handy - in case i fall into another lake - Happy Bday!!!!
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: You're welcome Medson! You know I'd do anything for you, my friend. Hey, how was your trip to Philly a few months back?
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Happy Birthday Handy!
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm medson: It was good. Short and sweet visit saw the Pidge that weekend which was nice.
	3:59pm clarke: it was the man-freds!!
	4:05pm clarke: sometimes an assignment is a good thing.
	4:07pm clarke: long-time listener. first time caller.
	♥ 4:12pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Todd! Thursday, Jack. We're going to see Dehd that night at Market Hotel and UV-TV the next night at TV Eye -- gotta at least try to act young!
	4:14pm clarke: u juvenile delinquent!!!!
	🎸 ♥ 4:15pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: You're only as young as you act on the weekend.
	♥ 4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: yARdbiRdSy RaveUp...
	4:17pm Richard Whig: wow. didn't know that was written for the yardbirds!!
	🎸 ♥ 4:17pm medson: Lots of October bdays
	4:18pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Richard Whig: Wow, when you learn something on my show I know it's educational!
	4:21pm Christina Low: Do Wah Diddy was one of my favourite tunes as a little girl. It’s still so great!
	4:23pm Frank Zaatar: I always found it interesting that the Exciters sang "We knew we WERE falling in love but Paul Jones sang "we was"--you know, the guy from Oxford.
	4:25pm Frank Zaatar: I always found it interesting that the Exciters sang "I knew we were falling in love," but Paul Jones sang "we was"--you know, the guy from Oxford.
	♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: I have to go move some boats around in a few minutes here. Thanks for the great talk and the great tunes, Todd! Much appreciated. Take it easy, everyone. But take it!
	4:30pm clarke: ah - so now that Frank is in the backyard you can use the computer!!! HOWDY!! and you are still a little girl!!!
	4:31pm clarke: (i'm sure)
	4:32pm Frank Zaatar: Sorry for the duplicate post.
	4:35pm Tony Tenaglia: Cool😎☕
	♥ 4:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and troop. The radio station we had growing up played "Blinded by the Light" as the only Manfred Mann track in their rotation.
	4:50pm bobobobob: im impressed by you Todd that you knew Jack Bruce played wi them ..good interview man !!!!
	4:50pm Christina Low: Ha, @clarke thanks for the flattery. And I get to hear it again!

	4:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Mr C! Thank you my man!
	4:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Victrola Tom: It's a great one! Maybe the only song both The Queers and Springsteen have performed.
	4:58pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Awesome interview, brings back memories when I was a teenager listening to Manfred Mann on the radio.
	5:00pm Victrola Tom: TOPT dropping knowledge like a hot potato!
	5:00pm Frank Zaatar: Me three on Pretty Flamingo, Todd and Tom. Todd, did you get the story on how they found the song?
	5:02pm Victrola Tom: Pretty Flamingo was a #1 in Ireland, keeping Paint it Black at #2 for 4 weeks!
	5:03pm Victrola Tom: I totally got that from Wikipedia!
	5:06pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Glad you are digging it @Stillwell Coney Islander!
	5:07pm HyperDose: pow pow.....pow?

	5:30pm Juli: 22!
	♥ 5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & - Todd Haynes & Colin Blunstone coming !
	♥ 5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Might have been TheRamones' argument in particular too that they were traditional ! But there was great resistance against them in the mainstream...
	5:37pm Frank In Queens: Fucking Time Rice, man…
	5:38pm Frank In Queens: Tim too, stinking autocorrect…
	5:38pm MFlynn: Wow is that funny! Sounds like Hall & Oats!
	♥ 5:38pm DjLorraine: Topt great interview man...TY
	5:38pm Frank In Queens: Sounding like Hall & Oats would be an improvement
	5:39pm Juli: Haha Painful but I still like the Ramones lmao

	5:52pm Old Dave: Amazing show, thanks Todd!
	♥ 5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Damn but FMU & Todd deliver.
	5:52pm Frank In Queens: This interview was really really fantastic! So glad to hear such an in-depth interview with a great musician and performer from that fine era who doesn’t get much attention these days.
	5:53pm clarke: who won the hockey (who was playing)?
	5:53pm DJ Nico: Amazing interview Todd ❤️
	5:53pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks everyone! I didn't plan for the interview to be the length that it was but we got going and he was just so well-spoken and fascinating that we kept going!
	♥ 5:54pm radioronan: Echo what Frank in Queens said..thanks Todd!
	♥ 5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a nice guy.
	5:54pm clarke: yes - perfect length (but good idea to break it up with music)
	5:55pm Frank In Queens: Isles lost to the Devils in OT. It’s pre-season, so no big deal.
	5:55pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thanks so much Todd and Paul !!
	5:55pm clarke: ah. pre-season.
	5:56pm clarke: i havent checked the status of Giants, lately, but assume they are pole position for division
	5:57pm Mr C: what an inspired and on spot segue..
	5:58pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @clarke: Gaussman is trying to win it for them today. Just gave up his first run in the top of the 6th so it was 1-1 but then Slater hit a pinch-hit HR to start the bottom of the inning so 2-1 Giants. Magic # is 1, if they win this game they take the division. Giants at 106 wins, Dodgers at 104. Crazy!
	5:59pm clarke: oh if Gaus is on the mound i will tune in momentarily -- great fantastic show!!! enjoyeD~
	5:59pm Frank In Queens: Is there a new Drop In this week, or will it be another replay?

	♥ 3:06pm TonyR: I soaked my cheap candy bar phone and the rice kinda worked after I opened it. I think the rice draws moisture from points that won't drain on their own. Just sticking the whole enchilada in your rice bin? I dunno.
	3:06pm WM: I hope you asked Paul Jones about his participation on Carla Bley's Escalator over the Hill. What parts did he sing or play on?
	3:07pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey everyone! Part one of my wonderful conversation with Paul Jones coming up soon!
	3:07pm clarke: i submerged the phone and it works now - after 4 hours
	♥ 3:08pm TonyR: As they say in "Salo", "I can't eat the rice."
	3:08pm clarke: and paul jones - whatta voice!!
	3:08pm clarke: whawts Salo??
	3:08pm clarke: whawts Salo??
	♥ 3:09pm TonyR: A pretty sick Pasolini movie.
	♥ 3:09pm Matt Clarke: Ready! Steady on, Todd!
	3:10pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Matt! Happy Birthday to your Gramps! Hope he's a fan of The Manfreds!
	3:11pm Frank In Queens: That sucks, clarke, but I’m glad the phone is working after that.
	3:11pm clarke: ah. speaking of movies - saw The Naked Kiss (again) this week.
	3:12pm clarke: ah no - everything is fine and the "swim" kinda was refreshing. all good in sugar land.
	3:13pm Frank In Queens: Nice clarke. Love e that one!
	3:14pm clarke: i like it - but, the children thing is a little strange to me.
	♥ 3:14pm Handy Haversack: Hey, clarke -- glad you made it out the lake, too! Did you have to be submerged in rice as well?
	3:14pm clarke: it certainly was ground-breaking for its time. 'elo kiddies!!!!
	3:15pm clarke: i am submerging in lo mein at the moment!!
	3:16pm Victrola Tom: Greetings all!
	♥ 3:16pm TonyR: @clarke: Fart so we can follow the bubbles!
	♥ 3:17pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Victrola Tom!
	3:17pm clarke: well, had to go to asian market to get the rice, so picked up some food-line fare.
	3:17pm Victrola Tom: Hey Handy, what’d I miss?
	♥ 3:18pm TonyR: The rice left a starchy film on the inside of my screen. So the phone "worked", but I had to ditch it.
	3:19pm clarke: wow, i guess i am lucky that my phone is fine!
	3:20pm Eric R: this is pretty great, Todd!
	♥ 3:20pm TonyR: My SIM was unfazed. Popped it in an alternate phone (unlocked GSM) and instantly had all my logs, messages, and contacts!
	♥ 3:20pm Handy Haversack: Victrola Tom: Some rocking, some rolling. Pretty good stuff! Anyone else in Central Park last night for the show. Saw quite a few FMU shirts. The Galactic Tour shirt stands out!
	3:20pm Victrola Tom: If I had to guess, I probably missed some great rock & roll!
	3:20pm clarke: that's good tony!!
	♥ 3:21pm Hoboken Jack: Hi TOPT, Tom, Handy, autumn Bagpipe, MVP Matt, Frank, MFlynn, Medson Man, Andrew, all!
	3:21pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks Eric! Hey Jack!
	🎸 ♥ 3:21pm medson: Hey Jack
	♥ 3:22pm Handy Haversack: Hey, Jack! Have a good Bandcamp Friday?
	3:25pm clarke: by "diary" am assuming he means Calendar??
	3:26pm Frank In Queens: I never get tired of hearing stories about the Ealing Club.
	3:26pm Listener Robert: Sorry, wrong. Thor, or Thunor, is the Norse god of thunder. Odin's a lot of things, but not a thunder god.
	♥ 3:30pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Jack!
	3:31pm clarke: i happen to love the sound quality of a cassette!
	3:31pm MFlynn: Hey Jack!!
	3:32pm clarke: lol!!!
	♥ 3:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Change of the Century' (May 1960) perhaps : en.wikipedia.org... ...I found it in the big Smithsonian History of Jazz thing.
	3:34pm WM: Brian Jones listened to Ornette Coleman? I guess I should not be suprised...
	3:34pm Eric R: the riff used on 19th Nervous Breakdown
	3:35pm clarke: the levels seem a little low on this TopT
	3:35pm Listener Robert: If Todd wanted to be nasty, he could quip, "They only became the Rolling Stones because you weren't it it."
	♥ 3:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Whatever Brian's shortcomings - he was known for being conspicuously well-informed.
	3:36pm Eric R: interesting to think, though, what the Rolling Stones would have been with Paul. Also Led Zep with Terry Reid.
	3:36pm clarke: i find it so strange that the guy could play ANY instrument but could NOT write a song to save his life (literally).
	3:37pm sufferwords: that last bit of detail really gave insight into Brian Jones, he was music- he could play it and just importantly see it in others
	3:38pm clarke: (just saying that if he could have written songs he wouldn't have been messing around with the pipes of pan tapes as much and not hanging around his pool!!)
	♥ 3:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'd say even that high-level Technical Musicianship & Songwriting are seldom found together in the same person in Rawk - while in Jazz they can be (there it's 'Composing')...
	3:40pm clarke: townshend??
	3:41pm Eric R: this Davies thing is pretty stunning
	3:41pm clarke: mccartney?
	3:42pm clarke: yes - this whole thang is FAB!!
	3:42pm johnk77: great work 1 of the leading singers on that early uk scene was long john baldry
	♥ 3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Townshend is a MultiInstrumentalist, Polymath & a Composer. & - an important Electric Guitarist. But - JeffBeck he is not. Macca & Hendrix qualify - in Rawk terms of 'Technical'...
	3:43pm clarke: but hendrix 'forgot' how to write kinda
	3:44pm Frank In Queens: Jack Bruce
	3:44pm clarke: and townshend could play ALL kinds of instruments and WELL!!
	3:44pm clarke: and mccartney is the greatest bass-player of all time, in my book.
	3:45pm clarke: why? you ask?? because his bass lines literally changed music.
	♥ 3:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hendrix was @ the Crossroads of everything - trying to be a sort of Jazz player in a Pop world including his own Hits. But he never wasn't a Writer. JackBruce could Write that's true... but he Played & Sang better.
	3:46pm clarke: now THIS is a drum sound!
	♥ 3:48pm Hoboken Jack: Handy, not my most thrilling Bandcamp Friday, but I did finally snag the Motorists album. You?
	3:48pm Frank In Queens: But he could do both, unlike Brian Jones, which is what prompted the discussion. So I think Jack Bruce fits the criteria.
	♥ 3:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...GeorgeHarrison for that matter...
	3:48pm clarke: oh, and Rev: Roy Wood
	♥ 3:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: clarke nice.
	3:49pm clarke: ROY WOOD!!!!!!!!!
	3:49pm clarke: ROY FUCKING WOOD!!!!!!
	3:50pm Richard Whig: once again, spectacular conversation here. (and stellar soundtrack natch) Todd once again showing us he is one of THEE best interviewers there be! bravo!
	3:50pm Chloe Q: Groovy! Great show as always.
	3:50pm clarke: (who also 'forgot' how to write a Song)
	♥ 3:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...also: Did the Manfreds & TheZombies steal each other's mascots :p ...
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm medson: Perfect day for this music and interview. Beautiful to just sit outside and tune in. Thanks Todd
	3:53pm Frank In Queens: I’m hitting the backyard in about 30 min as well, medson.
	♥ 3:53pm Handy Haversack: I had to make up for being out of town on September's, Jack, so we went deep. I justified it by reminding myself I have a birthday next week! clarke, really gonna need the Orioles to step up these two games ...
	3:53pm Frank In Queens: Well, whenever this game ends anyway.
	3:54pm clarke: nice day in Queens, mate?
	🎸 ♥ 3:54pm medson: Enjoy Frank.
	3:54pm Frank In Queens: Absolute beauty, clarke!
	3:54pm clarke: HH - the orioles are sunk i think. they can't step up when they have had GREAT opportunities!! (time for a new OWNER!!)
	♥ 3:55pm Hoboken Jack: What day is the B-day, Handy??
	3:56pm clarke: Handy - in case i fall into another lake - Happy Bday!!!!
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: You're welcome Medson! You know I'd do anything for you, my friend. Hey, how was your trip to Philly a few months back?
	3:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Happy Birthday Handy!
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm medson: It was good. Short and sweet visit saw the Pidge that weekend which was nice.
	3:59pm clarke: it was the man-freds!!
	4:05pm clarke: sometimes an assignment is a good thing.
	4:07pm clarke: long-time listener. first time caller.
	♥ 4:12pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Todd! Thursday, Jack. We're going to see Dehd that night at Market Hotel and UV-TV the next night at TV Eye -- gotta at least try to act young!
	4:14pm clarke: u juvenile delinquent!!!!
	🎸 ♥ 4:15pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: You're only as young as you act on the weekend.
	♥ 4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: yARdbiRdSy RaveUp...
	4:17pm Richard Whig: wow. didn't know that was written for the yardbirds!!
	🎸 ♥ 4:17pm medson: Lots of October bdays
	4:18pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Richard Whig: Wow, when you learn something on my show I know it's educational!
	4:21pm Christina Low: Do Wah Diddy was one of my favourite tunes as a little girl. It’s still so great!
	4:23pm Frank Zaatar: I always found it interesting that the Exciters sang "We knew we WERE falling in love but Paul Jones sang "we was"--you know, the guy from Oxford.
	4:25pm Frank Zaatar: I always found it interesting that the Exciters sang "I knew we were falling in love," but Paul Jones sang "we was"--you know, the guy from Oxford.
	♥ 4:30pm Handy Haversack: I have to go move some boats around in a few minutes here. Thanks for the great talk and the great tunes, Todd! Much appreciated. Take it easy, everyone. But take it!
	4:30pm clarke: ah - so now that Frank is in the backyard you can use the computer!!! HOWDY!! and you are still a little girl!!!
	4:31pm clarke: (i'm sure)
	4:32pm Frank Zaatar: Sorry for the duplicate post.
	4:35pm Tony Tenaglia: Cool😎☕
	♥ 4:39pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Todd and troop. The radio station we had growing up played "Blinded by the Light" as the only Manfred Mann track in their rotation.
	4:50pm bobobobob: im impressed by you Todd that you knew Jack Bruce played wi them ..good interview man !!!!

	4:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Hey Mr C! Thank you my man!
	4:56pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @Victrola Tom: It's a great one! Maybe the only song both The Queers and Springsteen have performed.
	4:58pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Awesome interview, brings back memories when I was a teenager listening to Manfred Mann on the radio.
	5:00pm Victrola Tom: TOPT dropping knowledge like a hot potato!
	5:00pm Frank Zaatar: Me three on Pretty Flamingo, Todd and Tom. Todd, did you get the story on how they found the song?
	5:02pm Victrola Tom: Pretty Flamingo was a #1 in Ireland, keeping Paint it Black at #2 for 4 weeks!

	5:06pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Glad you are digging it @Stillwell Coney Islander!

	5:30pm Juli: 22!
	♥ 5:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & - Todd Haynes & Colin Blunstone coming !
	♥ 5:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Might have been TheRamones' argument in particular too that they were traditional ! But there was great resistance against them in the mainstream...
	5:37pm Frank In Queens: Fucking Time Rice, man…
	5:38pm Frank In Queens: Tim too, stinking autocorrect…
	5:38pm MFlynn: Wow is that funny! Sounds like Hall & Oats!
	♥ 5:38pm DjLorraine: Topt great interview man...TY
	5:38pm Frank In Queens: Sounding like Hall & Oats would be an improvement
	5:39pm Juli: Haha Painful but I still like the Ramones lmao
	5:40pm sufferwords: so great Todd
	5:41pm Steve Harsh: Dogging the Ramones and Pistols? Maybe not loving that?
	♥ 5:48pm Hoboken Jack: My name is Jack and i have to hop on the PATH now but I have loved this interview, thank you, Todd!! Everybody should come to the Hoboken Arts and Music Fest tomorrow, free, noon to 6!!

	5:52pm Old Dave: Amazing show, thanks Todd!
	♥ 5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Damn but FMU & Todd deliver.
	5:52pm Frank In Queens: This interview was really really fantastic! So glad to hear such an in-depth interview with a great musician and performer from that fine era who doesn’t get much attention these days.
	5:53pm clarke: who won the hockey (who was playing)?
	5:53pm DJ Nico: Amazing interview Todd ❤️
	5:53pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: Thanks everyone! I didn't plan for the interview to be the length that it was but we got going and he was just so well-spoken and fascinating that we kept going!
	♥ 5:54pm radioronan: Echo what Frank in Queens said..thanks Todd!
	♥ 5:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a nice guy.
	5:54pm clarke: yes - perfect length (but good idea to break it up with music)
	5:55pm Frank In Queens: Isles lost to the Devils in OT. It’s pre-season, so no big deal.
	5:55pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thanks so much Todd and Paul !!
	5:55pm clarke: ah. pre-season.
	5:56pm clarke: i havent checked the status of Giants, lately, but assume they are pole position for division
	5:57pm Mr C: what an inspired and on spot segue..
	5:58pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: @clarke: Gaussman is trying to win it for them today. Just gave up his first run in the top of the 6th so it was 1-1 but then Slater hit a pinch-hit HR to start the bottom of the inning so 2-1 Giants. Magic # is 1, if they win this game they take the division. Giants at 106 wins, Dodgers at 104. Crazy!
	5:59pm clarke: oh if Gaus is on the mound i will tune in momentarily -- great fantastic show!!! enjoyeD~
	5:59pm Frank In Queens: Is there a new Drop In this week, or will it be another replay?
