	12:01pm hyde: classic opener!
	12:01pm Stork: Listener Robert! I resemble that remark!
	12:02pm fred: I love Gavin Bryars' music, this should be a treat! Speaking of treats, I'll have a Glen Passaic
	🥁 12:02pm WR: Hello folks, I've got kitchen duty as usual, back on comments after service is finished.
	12:02pm adamdoesit: Tally ho, Stork, swells, jockeys, horses, beetlebombs.
	12:03pm chresti: Greetings Stork and loaded big cheeses!
	12:04pm abbazabba: Hi ho Silver!
	12:05pm Listener Robert: In that case it was amazingly good!
	12:05pm Stork: Make it a double for fred, good barkeep!chresti! adamdoesit! WR! hyde! StringOFperils ! Come in and warm your hearty souls!
	12:06pm Franco Twinkie: William Tell, oh how I love this!
	12:07pm chresti: Brian Eno was on clarinet?
	12:08pm fred: @Stork: I mentioned this on Jeff's playlist, but I want to bring to your attention that Han Bennink will turn 80 on April 17, which happens to be a Sunday
	12:08pm Stork: Yeah, isn't that wild, chresti? There's a photo of him playing it on the inside gatefold cover.
	12:09pm Stork: already got it scheduled, fred! thanks for the mention.
	12:09pm Jeff Golick: Gonna ride home on the wings of Bryars and you, @Stork!
	12:09pm abbazabba: That’s crazy’s. I had no idea Brian Eno played clarinet. I’m going to need a cocktail to process this information
	12:10pm Stork: This is soaring music, Jeff. Music for soaring ears, you might say. have a safe soar!
	12:11pm Stork: Greetings, abbazabba! Eno never played clarinet until that day, and probably hasn't since. The Portsmouth Sinfonia was a concept band - all musicians swapped instruments for the concert.
	🥁 12:12pm David (in London): Hello Stork and all groovers here assembled in the club.
	12:12pm Stork: I'll make sure they "spill" a little extra extra into your glass, abbazabba.
	12:13pm TDK60: Hello, Stork.
	12:14pm Stork: Greetings, David (in London) ! Really enjoying your music this week - David's project is called Daona for those who don't know. Great stuff!
	🥁 12:16pm David (in London): I always thought that Brian Eno's "I'm not a musician" schtick was a lot of kidology really.
	12:16pm Stork: Whoops, I already screwed up the playlist - fixed it now.
	🥁 12:16pm David (in London): Thank you Stork. I'm so very glad that you like it.
	12:17pm Stork: Hi, TDK60!
	12:18pm Franco Twinkie: Hey TDK! Is it okay if I sent the reply as an email? I'll be discreet and not mention any of the more flagrant nonsense I found out.
	12:18pm fred: I only saw Bryars once, but it was The Sinking of the Titanic, with Philip Jeck too, so an amazing performance
	12:19pm Stork: That's yet another fine performance of that piece, fred! Great you were there.
	🥁 12:20pm David (in London): Most years, most normal years anyway, Bryars usually does a three-night residency at Cafe OTO in January. His daughters and son play with him. Hasn't done it the last two years. Sigh.
	12:21pm TDK60: Franco, hola. Sure, email if you want.
	12:21pm abbazabba: Thank you Stork.
	🥁 12:21pm David (in London): TDK, Chrestikins, Franco, fred, String, WR et al. Salutations good people.
	12:22pm chresti: Good hello, David in Londonkins!
	12:23pm TDK60: Hi David, in the evening there.
	12:24pm Stork: Franco, you're sitting on flagrant nonsense? Why, it's the coin of realm, round these parts!
	12:25pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks.
	12:25pm Stork: coin of THE realm, he corrected
	12:25pm abbazabba: Hauntingly beautiful
	12:26pm Franco Twinkie: It is indeed Stork, that's my bread and meat!
	12:29pm Doug Schulkind: Really really delighted to be hearing this Bryars fest!
	12:31pm Stork: Dougie!! Just try to keep your toe from tappin'! Ya can't!!
	12:32pm StringOFperils: Reluctantly bailing for a while. Must buy cat food before a blizzard sets in later...apt weather tie-in to Man In A Room Gambling later?
	12:32pm fred: @chresti: If your son goes to the Pompidou Center museum, he might see me on a cigarette break nearby at IRCAM (I work there, but as a lowly tech can't even give him a tour)
	12:33pm abbazabba: @string of perils- gotta take care of the cat lest he kills you in your sleep
	12:34pm Stanley: Hi Peter Storkfellow. Hi everyone.
	12:34pm Stork: Oh, I WISH, StringOFperils! I couldn't find that one, though I know it and it's great!
	12:35pm Stork: Greetings, Stanley!
	12:38pm Stork: Interesting, fred. I didn't know you worked there. Do you get to meet the big stars?
	🥁 12:38pm David (in London): Hi Stanloid. Always a good night out at Storkfellow's.
	12:40pm Stanley: Hi David. Hope your Sunday is going well.
	12:40pm northguineahills: I just had Gavin Bryars playing in my head last night, now he's really playing in my head.
	12:42pm Stork: Hey there, northguineahills ! If anyone else wants to enter your head to see Bryars, do they have to pay and get their hand stamped?
	12:43pm fred: Hey ngh! How are you doing? It's been a while
	12:47pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and all
	12:49pm Stork: Hell the hell-o, coelacanth∅ ! Nice ride ya got there!
	🥁 12:51pm David (in London): Hey Coela.
	12:51pm northguineahills: @Stor, nah are are welcome, but if anyone wants to bring some hummus they're welcome. @fred: tough4. Out of the hospital, feeling healthier. finally got my laptop back. Ran out of money thanks to the hospital visits., and still have more tests to run, but even w/ insurance (finally got some) it's costly. "working" at a homeless shelter run by christian community (who interprets the bible literally), so, a lot of right-wing viewpoints spouted. But, I know my Bible, and know how to fit in, and have a room to myself, and just register the guests and the IT side of things in exchange for room and board (w/ a side of Bible studies). I'm not supposed to listen to non xtian music or read non-xtian books, or have a phone or laptop, but, I have my ways.
	🥁 12:57pm David (in London): Quality be damned, this is absolutely bloody gold dust, Stork.
	12:59pm Stork: @David (in London): - did Konitz ever blow a bad note? I do wish I could find something from this quartet that sounded better, but yeah, it knocks me out, too. Bailey and Bryars and Konitz together? I mean, come on!
	1:04pm coelacanth∅: 'evening David
	1:04pm Stork: Bryars doing a bop solo. Pinch me.
	1:08pm Listener Robert: I chuclled at the "Out of Nowhere" quote in that one, because it really did seem to come from out of nowhere.
	1:08pm northguineahills: I rarely get to hear any of these early recordings of Derek Bailey playing "straight" guitar.
	1:08pm taxon rascal: Hi, Just did a quick search for Club 43, as it was in my native city (although before my time) and present this link https://www.manchesterbeat.com/index.php/venues/venues-manchester-cbd/club-43-amber-street Apparently they hosted some great American jazzers there after the M.U. ban on musicians from U.S. was lifted in the late 1950s.
	1:09pm fred: @ngh: then again, how are the good news news if you only tell that to those who already heard about it? Which is either an evangelical creed or an excuse for a metal tape exchange club at bible school
	1:10pm taxon rascal: Top tunes by the way!
	🥁 1:10pm David (in London): Being a former resident of the fair city of Manchester, I had to look up Club 43: it was "in the upstairs room of The Clarendon on Oxford Road...in the late 50s, the Musician Union rules prohibiting American musicians from playing in the UK were dropped and the 43 became a good place to hear some of the top American jazzers who were 'ding Europe'.... Oh bloody Hell, taxon has beaten me to it!
	1:11pm Listening Out There: Just finished reading a good biography called Madam. The real stork club shows up in there several times. None o’ this fake stork club stuff…
	1:11pm Stork: Hiya, nice to meet you, taxon rascal - thanks for the great info! I was gonna ask what MU means, but David just provided the answer: Musician Union
	1:12pm northguineahills: @fred: that's where the homeless guests come in, chapel in mandatory for them daily (as well as for myself),
	1:14pm Stork: Listening Out There - right? those fake Stork Clubs really make - hey, waitaminute!
	1:14pm fred: @ngh: there is some really great Xtian music, though I guess they're not into that
	1:15pm chresti: ngh, glad you got your own room
	1:17pm Stork: ngh: sounds like a tough job, but at least somewhat gratifying
	1:18pm chresti: *It's important for heathens to have their own room.
	1:19pm fred: Yeah, why settle for a cheap NJ knock-off when you can enjoy a German NJ original?
	1:19pm Stork: This is stunning - espesh with headphones. Tres trippy!
	🥁 1:20pm David (in London): Howard Skempton in the mix there. V nice.
	1:20pm northguineahills: I also get $50/month for my work (but they don't call it work, mmore of a donation, no w-2s or anything, all in cash).
	1:20pm taxon rascal: No worries David in That London, I’m just happy to find out more about Mancunian musical heritage beyond all the eighties and nineties stuff! I hope they treat you well in the big city.
	1:22pm taxon rascal: And what was that ban all about? It was a massive mistake and we’re suffering again in these times of hostile environment, etc, and hardly get to see foreign musicians outside of the metropolis unless they’re some big industry bands.
	🥁 1:24pm David (in London): Taxon. Yeah, I like finding out about all those old small venues, too. It was all such a charming cottage industry. The Hendrix Experience playing Didsbury Nursing College, ha ha.
	🥁 1:24pm Michael 98145: isolationist nationalism seldom turns out well
	1:25pm taxon rascal: Indeed, Michael. We’ve let a bunch of absolute rotters take control.
	🥁 1:26pm David (in London): The Unions were so strong at that time that there were very stringent rules about employing foreign musicians, which is why so many played with British pick-up bands (John Lee Hooker being backed by the Groundhogs whilst touring the UK etc). It lasted in film and TV well into the 80s.
	1:27pm Stork: I think it was a huge mistake too, taxon rascal - the insane idea that protectionism ever works.
	1:27pm taxon rascal: David , in other Hendrix news, apparently there was a cave in Stockport that was a club where he played, too. I must find out more. It was a youth club for a while and at some point I went to friends art exhibition in it.
	🥁 1:29pm David (in London): Taxon, a cave in Stockport??!! We must know more! I know they held gigs at Chislehurst Caves in Kent (Hendrix, The Floyd etc), but I didn't even realise that Stockport had a cave!
	1:30pm chresti: I remember going through customs at Heathrow in the 80's. They wanted to make sure we weren't coming to work.
	1:31pm Stork: A club in a cave ... hmmm... I HAVE been looking to expand....
	🥁 1:33pm David (in London): Stork, have you ever been to the Neuschwanstein? Ludwig built one room as a replica cave - a literal mancave / King Cave - so he could sit in it and contemplate Wagner's music. It's stupendously bonkers and brilliant.
	1:35pm taxon rascal: Chresti, that was when we did like foreigners!
	🥁 1:36pm Michael 98145: remember that, too @chresti
	1:37pm taxon rascal: Stockport is riddled with caves, something to do with it being sandstone and rainy. Obvs the council don’t like you exploring, but I think a little trip might be in order.
	1:38pm Stork: @David (in London) - i've been TO it, but didn't go in - just tramped around the area. Unfortunately there was so much construction going on at the time that you couldn't walk around much. I was alone and din't want to wait around for an English or German tour. There were some very drunken American 20-somethings there who were kind of embarrassing. I pretended I couldn't speak English.
	1:38pm chresti: Yeah sandstone is... sandy.
	🥁 1:38pm David (in London): Taxon, if you're not back by midday Thursday I'll send out a search party.
	🥁 1:39pm David (in London): The Stork Club live at the Neuschwanstein needs to happen...
	1:39pm Stork: Yo, Michael 98145
	1:41pm Stork: 2/3 of the Bang on a Can originators are in Icebreaker (Gordon and Lang)
	1:42pm StringOFperils: Ludwig's grotto on the grounds of Neuschwanstein is insane. I've been through it in documentaries. Probably on Deutsche Welle, German state television.
	1:42pm Stork: Sorry - I meant to write that Gordon and Lang are composers on the album, not that they're in the ensemble.
	1:42pm TDK60: Interesting music for a winter day that had been sunny but now gray before snow and rain arrives.
	1:43pm headcleaner: fine stuff, Stork - muß aber draußen gehen und Bagels holen - leider, leider
	1:44pm StringOFperils: Sounding lovely on this Sunday afternoon, Stork!
	1:44pm Stork: Hey, some fine Deutsch ther, headcleaner! Bring me back an alees 'dran Bagel with Frischkäse und Lachs!
	1:45pm adamdoesit: These oceanic sounds have been a balm to my ear as I cranked out some stationary miles.
	1:45pm Stork: Scheisse, I can't type today! "alles-'dran Bagel..."
	1:47pm fred: @Stork: Just blame Jersey
	1:48pm Stork: Oh, I do, fred.
	1:49pm chresti: Warm and sunny/ptly cldy in San Gabriel, CA
	1:50pm Stork: Beam me up, chresti
	1:51pm StringOFperils: Schloss Linderhof, not Neuschwanstein...my bad. Knew that couldn't make sense....whatever....
	1:52pm taxon rascal: Thanks for the fine tunes and convo, I’m off out now as I’ve been offered Sunday dinner! All the best to you all.
	🥁 1:52pm David (in London): Ta ta Taxon.
	1:53pm Stork: An, OK StringOFperils: - I didn't know of one at Neuschwanstein. Linderhof is only a 20 minute walk away.
	1:53pm adamdoesit: Stork and fred, a chemical plant in across the river in Passaic went up in flames the other day. I hope you socked away some of that Glen Passaic -- it might be in short supply for a while.
	1:53pm Stork: Hey taxon, thanks for hangin' - see you next Sunday to get a report on that cave?
	1:56pm fred: Many years ago, I was offered a job in Morristown. I declined as I thought NJ was a cesspool of pollution and it was a misunderstanding anyway (my only foray into UX was a hit, but it was a mistake). Funny thing is I only found out about the station later, and probably wouldn't have had I taken that job
	2:04pm chresti: Jeez adamdoesit!
	2:04pm Stork: Coupla links fo ya: www.freejazzblog.org... Fred Van Hove (1937 - 2022) ~ The Free Jazz Collective (freejazzblog.org) gavinbryars.com Gavin Bryars
	2:05pm chresti: Have an enjoyable dinner, taxon.
	2:06pm Stanley: Great to hear Jesus' Blood again
	🥁 2:06pm David (in London): Always thought Gavin looks like he's getting ready to challenge Doug Bradley for the role of Pinhead in that photo.
	2:06pm fred: @adamdoesit: Glen Passaic has to age in rusty discarded drums for years, so the shortage should be way down the line, beyond the life expectancy of any aficionado
	2:07pm TDK60: NGH, you can play this at the shelter, eh?
	2:08pm Stork: Gavin Bryars always reminded me a little of a more heavyset Gene Hackman.
	2:09pm fred: I hope that guy on Jesus' blood got something, but I doubt it
	2:10pm Stork: Exactly, fred. Glen Passaic drinkers should buy their toilet paper one roll at a time.
	2:11pm StringOFperils: Ha ha ha.
	🥁 2:15pm David (in London): Fred, I think he guy died before Bryars had even finished the piece.
	2:16pm Stork: Interesting hearing Frisell playing purely composed music. Great multilayering of guitar tracks, with Balenescu layering on top - sweet!
	2:18pm StringOFperils: Very suited to what BF does with attack and decay and volume control
	2:19pm Stork: @StringOFperils: - yeah, BF's textures can sound like bowing.
	2:20pm StringOFperils: Sounding like Terje Rypdal here
	2:22pm Stork: You read my mind, StringOFperils:
	2:23pm StringOFperils: I didn't peek at the juicy bits, I swear.
	2:24pm Stork: @StringOFperils: you've already seen too much.
	2:25pm StringOFperils: You can say that again
	2:31pm Stanley: I'm very much enjoying the selections, this evening, maestro
	2:32pm Stork: Thank you kindly, Stanley. Of course there's little to choose of his that's unenjoyable.
	2:33pm TDK60: The Discreet LP really surprised me back in the '70s. I was ready for it I guess.
	2:36pm Stork: The chords never resolve - and may they never resolve.
	2:39pm fred: I remember arguing with a friend about the Eno/Bryars connection after that Titanic performance. I don't remember what we were arguing about, probably something momentous like whether Jesus' Blood or Titanic was on side A of a record neither of us ever saw
	2:47pm Listening Out There: Wives Know. Boy, do they know…
	2:47pm StringOFperils: This is knew to me. I have never heard anyone pronounce that in that way....but I trust your wife implicitly.
	2:49pm adamdoesit: fred, that's a relief about the Glen Passaic supply. All this time, I thought the "aged 5 years" on the bottle referred to the effect on the drinker.
	2:49pm Jeff Moore: Lovely show, Herr Larry Storch. A fine change of pace. Not that there was anything wrong with the other pace. But you know.
	2:50pm fred: Looks like I missed Tom Waits while doing laundry. Not complaining
	2:53pm Stork: fred - Jesus was the A-Side. Bryars wasn't taking any chances.
	2:53pm fred: @adamdoesit: it's both, you drink the aging
	2:55pm Stork: Jeff Moore gives you more! Thank you most robustly, sir.
	2:57pm TDK60: Oh no, these players couldn't dream up a band name?
	3:00pm TDK60: Oh, now I see Jon Gibson on the album cover.
	🥁 3:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Halloo !! ...just got myself Boosted in the gym across the street !! ...Added benefit of they Posted the Password for their WiFi Extension stream - which seems good & strong just now @ least ...tho' I still gotta have the laptop by the window facing them... So good to be here.
	3:03pm Stork: Yeah, I think they originally issued this with all their names on it, TDK60, but when Jon Gibson released this around '96 it was on a comp of his, so..
	🥁 3:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& a fine ☿Mercury ℞etrograde it is too ...not that I'm a touch typist anyhow exactly...
	3:04pm Stork: Heya Revolution Rabbit Nov63 and welcome in the joint! Good feeling, no?
	3:04pm TDK60: Thanks Stork. I've gotten hot under the collar on the WFMU boards when I see a band name with 5 or more names listed. I get unpleasant, huffy. It's ugly.
	🥁 3:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am Grateful.
	🥁 3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...politically satisfying even...
	3:05pm adamdoesit: Rev! booster shots should come with signal boosts more often.
	3:07pm fred: @RRN63: Booster and WiFi? Maybe Bill Gates has a point
	3:08pm Stork: I'm with you, TDK - Emerson, Lake and Palmer - that's it, boys!! YOu're done! Pick three names and END IT!!! Sorry for shouting.
	3:08pm TDK60: I'm glad you got boosted, Revrab63; hope you're not too sore.
	🥁 3:09pm Michael 98145: I suspect we are in for annual boosters ..
	3:09pm TDK60: I gave in after that Young guy joined up with CSN. Made it 4 names tops. 5 is when I lose my cool.
	🥁 3:10pm Michael 98145: ... or Ivermectin suppositories
	3:10pm Stork: Where is it that you have to get vaccinated to enter a liquor store? Um... wouldn't that do the trick? Everywhere?
	3:12pm Stork: TDK60 - right? What are ya, a band or a law firm?
	🥁 3:13pm WR: Did you get the Stork Club licensed appropriately so we can hear "A Man in a Room, Gambling" today?
	🥁 3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Starting to feel the arm soreness - actually a relief I so didn't even feel the needle I kinda doubted it !!... Yeah if Gates is behind the Signal Boost too I might be in his corner this time...
	3:14pm fred: MES had the right idea. He was The Fall, and that was that
	3:14pm Stork: Dang, WR - I wish I had that one! It was one of those I couldn't find. Some day...
	3:16pm Stork: @fred - well he kept my granny gainfully employed as his bongos player for years, but he never let her trade off the band name.
	3:20pm fred: @Stork: A guy I know interviewed him once, MES went and brought two pints before it started. The guy thought it was a nice gesture, but none were for him
	🥁 3:21pm WR: Ridgewood Radio played a selection from it in May 2020. wfmu.org...
	3:21pm doctorjazz: Late arrival, hi Stork and Storkers!
	3:22pm Stork: Greetz, doc!
	3:25pm Stork: I guess the guy didn't know shit about MES. He might've done a little research!
	🥁 3:25pm WR: While I vaguely have known of Gavin Bryars since Portsmouth Sinfonia daze this episode is spectacularly bringing his range into focus for me. Thank you.
	🥁 3:27pm Michael 98145: Thank you again, Münster !
	3:27pm chresti: Yeah if there's more than 3 names, they get the acronym, or they're just "those guys"
	3:27pm fred: @Stork: MES single-handedly made bongo classes a thing in a certain age range
	3:28pm Stork: Thanks for riding along, WR. It's always my point to try and show the whole range. Bryars is rightly known for Jesus' Blood and Titanic, but so little known for most of his stuff, and for all the great collabs and writing for others that he does. This is really just a toe-dip into the Sea of Gavin, as t'were.
	🥁 3:28pm Michael 98145: Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich was a good name
	3:29pm Stork: They get a pass, Miichael 98145
	3:34pm fred: Titanic has been featured to great effect on Kenzo's show, many times
	3:34pm Stork: chresti: I want to make it clear that I was firmly on the side that said include The Professor and Mary Ann in the Gilligan Theme Song. WHen they changed it to "and the rest." - imagine what it must have been like to work with Russell Johnson and Dawn Wells after THAT!
	3:36pm Stork: Using the woodblocks to symbolize the water seeping into the ship was genius.
	🥁 3:36pm WR: This tidbit on his Wikipedia page I find charming. (my edit) Bryars has run The Gavin Bryars Ensemble with his preferred musicians, consisting chiefly of low strings. Now, in addition, this regularly includes his children (2 cellos, piano and double bass)....Bryars .... has a stepdaughter and son.... and two daughters from his first marriage. My father considered us brothers as his basketball team. Bryars has got an ensemble.
	3:38pm Jeff Moore: Thanks, Stork! Thanks to you, Gavin B is no longer "Oh, that Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet weirdo—did he do anything else?" to me.
	3:38pm Stork: WR: how cool must that be to be sawing away, next to your TWO cello-playing daughters.
	3:39pm chresti: Now I'm hearing the Gilligan's Island theme song.
	3:39pm Stork: He's 10x the weirdo you thought him to be, Jeff M!
	3:40pm fred: That part was really moving live, with the pictures too. Smothering
	3:41pm Stork: @Michael 98145: - gern geschehen, Bielefeld!!
	3:42pm Stork: Wish I'd a been there, fred!
	3:44pm Stork: chresti - we're gonna all have nightmares tonight involving Jim Bacchus, Alan Hale, and the Titanic. It can't be avoided.
	3:45pm adamdoesit: Stork, I know I never say this towards the end of your show, but this Gavin Bryars guy is all new to me. The ship still sank, but my musical horizons are broadened, again. Thank you.
	3:46pm Stork: I would've paid you to say that if you hadn't just blurted it for free, adamdoesit!
	3:47pm doctorjazz: Looks like a catch up episode for me in the archives, not very familiar with Bryars either, mostly just a name.
	3:49pm adamdoesit: Stork, when will I learn? Never, so long as you keep the drinks coming.
	3:49pm fred: The friend I mentioned before had seen Titanic before, in a decommissioned pool, with the audience around and the musicians in the pool. That must have been something
	🥁 3:49pm Michael 98145: Watched Titanic w/ Barbara Stanwyck last night
	3:50pm StringOFperils: I forgot about these stretched out "Nearer My God to Thee' quotes
	3:50pm adamdoesit: Titanwyck to its fans, Michael.
	3:51pm Stork: Do it, doc!
	3:51pm Stork: Whoa, fred, that must have been amaze-balls!
	🥁 3:51pm Michael 98145: Great musics here today
	3:52pm Stork: Never saw the flick, Michael 98145.
	3:52pm StringOFperils: Dibs on the diving board at that one, Fred.
	3:52pm Stork: THANKS ALL FOR ANOTHER REALLY SWELL EVENING - GREAT CHATS!!!
	3:54pm Hams: when i played "jesus' blood.." in my college DJ years, a listener felt inclined to call the station & tell me to change the song.
	🥁 3:54pm David (in London): Wow, another stonking, storking show today.
	3:54pm TDK60: Danke, Stork.
	3:54pm Stanley: Ver ver good. Thanks Mr Stork.
	3:55pm chresti: Thanks for the swell morning, Stork!
	3:57pm StringOFperils: Time for the sinking of my breakfast dishes. Thanks a lot, Stork!
	3:58pm Stork: Stanley, chresti, Hams - hullo!!, David in London, Michael, adamdoesit, fred, TDKStorngOFperils and all those who I ran out of time to type - - thank you thank you! Next week agin agin!
	4:00pm fred: Damn, that was before I found that place. I'm like always there now
	4:00pm Jeff Moore: Speaking of "Nearer My God To Thee", is everyone familiar with Ted Turner's CNN doomsday tape? en.m.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 4:01pm WR: Thank you Stork, and now you can let the stream go...
	4:36pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Stork!

the Stork Club has retained its qualities of decaying elegance and dwindling significance since the late 1950s.

	12:01pm hyde: classic opener!
	12:01pm Stork: Listener Robert! I resemble that remark!
	12:02pm fred: I love Gavin Bryars' music, this should be a treat! Speaking of treats, I'll have a Glen Passaic
	🥁 12:02pm WR: Hello folks, I've got kitchen duty as usual, back on comments after service is finished.
	12:02pm adamdoesit: Tally ho, Stork, swells, jockeys, horses, beetlebombs.
	12:03pm chresti: Greetings Stork and loaded big cheeses!
	12:04pm abbazabba: Hi ho Silver!
	12:05pm Listener Robert: In that case it was amazingly good!
	12:05pm Stork: Make it a double for fred, good barkeep!chresti! adamdoesit! WR! hyde! StringOFperils ! Come in and warm your hearty souls!
	12:06pm Franco Twinkie: William Tell, oh how I love this!
	12:07pm chresti: Brian Eno was on clarinet?
	12:08pm fred: @Stork: I mentioned this on Jeff's playlist, but I want to bring to your attention that Han Bennink will turn 80 on April 17, which happens to be a Sunday
	12:08pm Stork: Yeah, isn't that wild, chresti? There's a photo of him playing it on the inside gatefold cover.
	12:09pm Stork: already got it scheduled, fred! thanks for the mention.
	12:09pm Jeff Golick: Gonna ride home on the wings of Bryars and you, @Stork!
	12:09pm abbazabba: That’s crazy’s. I had no idea Brian Eno played clarinet. I’m going to need a cocktail to process this information
	12:10pm Stork: This is soaring music, Jeff. Music for soaring ears, you might say. have a safe soar!
	12:11pm Stork: Greetings, abbazabba! Eno never played clarinet until that day, and probably hasn't since. The Portsmouth Sinfonia was a concept band - all musicians swapped instruments for the concert.
	🥁 12:12pm David (in London): Hello Stork and all groovers here assembled in the club.
	12:12pm Stork: I'll make sure they "spill" a little extra extra into your glass, abbazabba.
	12:13pm TDK60: Hello, Stork.
	12:14pm Stork: Greetings, David (in London) ! Really enjoying your music this week - David's project is called Daona for those who don't know. Great stuff!
	🥁 12:16pm David (in London): I always thought that Brian Eno's "I'm not a musician" schtick was a lot of kidology really.
	12:16pm Stork: Whoops, I already screwed up the playlist - fixed it now.
	🥁 12:16pm David (in London): Thank you Stork. I'm so very glad that you like it.
	12:17pm Stork: Hi, TDK60!
	12:18pm Franco Twinkie: Hey TDK! Is it okay if I sent the reply as an email? I'll be discreet and not mention any of the more flagrant nonsense I found out.
	12:18pm fred: I only saw Bryars once, but it was The Sinking of the Titanic, with Philip Jeck too, so an amazing performance
	12:19pm Stork: That's yet another fine performance of that piece, fred! Great you were there.
	🥁 12:20pm David (in London): Most years, most normal years anyway, Bryars usually does a three-night residency at Cafe OTO in January. His daughters and son play with him. Hasn't done it the last two years. Sigh.
	12:21pm TDK60: Franco, hola. Sure, email if you want.
	12:21pm abbazabba: Thank you Stork.
	🥁 12:21pm David (in London): TDK, Chrestikins, Franco, fred, String, WR et al. Salutations good people.
	12:22pm chresti: Good hello, David in Londonkins!
	12:23pm TDK60: Hi David, in the evening there.
	12:24pm Stork: Franco, you're sitting on flagrant nonsense? Why, it's the coin of realm, round these parts!
	12:25pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks.
	12:25pm Stork: coin of THE realm, he corrected
	12:25pm abbazabba: Hauntingly beautiful
	12:26pm Franco Twinkie: It is indeed Stork, that's my bread and meat!
	12:29pm Doug Schulkind: Really really delighted to be hearing this Bryars fest!
	12:31pm Stork: Dougie!! Just try to keep your toe from tappin'! Ya can't!!
	12:32pm StringOFperils: Reluctantly bailing for a while. Must buy cat food before a blizzard sets in later...apt weather tie-in to Man In A Room Gambling later?
	12:32pm fred: @chresti: If your son goes to the Pompidou Center museum, he might see me on a cigarette break nearby at IRCAM (I work there, but as a lowly tech can't even give him a tour)
	12:33pm abbazabba: @string of perils- gotta take care of the cat lest he kills you in your sleep
	12:34pm Stanley: Hi Peter Storkfellow. Hi everyone.
	12:34pm Stork: Oh, I WISH, StringOFperils! I couldn't find that one, though I know it and it's great!
	12:35pm Stork: Greetings, Stanley!
	12:38pm Stork: Interesting, fred. I didn't know you worked there. Do you get to meet the big stars?
	🥁 12:38pm David (in London): Hi Stanloid. Always a good night out at Storkfellow's.
	12:40pm Stanley: Hi David. Hope your Sunday is going well.
	12:40pm northguineahills: I just had Gavin Bryars playing in my head last night, now he's really playing in my head.
	12:42pm Stork: Hey there, northguineahills ! If anyone else wants to enter your head to see Bryars, do they have to pay and get their hand stamped?
	12:43pm fred: Hey ngh! How are you doing? It's been a while
	12:47pm coelacanth∅: greetings Stork and all
	12:49pm Stork: Hell the hell-o, coelacanth∅ ! Nice ride ya got there!
	🥁 12:51pm David (in London): Hey Coela.
	12:51pm northguineahills: @Stor, nah are are welcome, but if anyone wants to bring some hummus they're welcome. @fred: tough4. Out of the hospital, feeling healthier. finally got my laptop back. Ran out of money thanks to the hospital visits., and still have more tests to run, but even w/ insurance (finally got some) it's costly. "working" at a homeless shelter run by christian community (who interprets the bible literally), so, a lot of right-wing viewpoints spouted. But, I know my Bible, and know how to fit in, and have a room to myself, and just register the guests and the IT side of things in exchange for room and board (w/ a side of Bible studies). I'm not supposed to listen to non xtian music or read non-xtian books, or have a phone or laptop, but, I have my ways.
	🥁 12:57pm David (in London): Quality be damned, this is absolutely bloody gold dust, Stork.
	12:59pm Stork: @David (in London): - did Konitz ever blow a bad note? I do wish I could find something from this quartet that sounded better, but yeah, it knocks me out, too. Bailey and Bryars and Konitz together? I mean, come on!
	1:04pm coelacanth∅: 'evening David
	1:04pm Stork: Bryars doing a bop solo. Pinch me.
	1:08pm Listener Robert: I chuclled at the "Out of Nowhere" quote in that one, because it really did seem to come from out of nowhere.
	1:08pm northguineahills: I rarely get to hear any of these early recordings of Derek Bailey playing "straight" guitar.
	1:08pm taxon rascal: Hi, Just did a quick search for Club 43, as it was in my native city (although before my time) and present this link https://www.manchesterbeat.com/index.php/venues/venues-manchester-cbd/club-43-amber-street Apparently they hosted some great American jazzers there after the M.U. ban on musicians from U.S. was lifted in the late 1950s.
	1:09pm fred: @ngh: then again, how are the good news news if you only tell that to those who already heard about it? Which is either an evangelical creed or an excuse for a metal tape exchange club at bible school
	1:10pm taxon rascal: Top tunes by the way!
	🥁 1:10pm David (in London): Being a former resident of the fair city of Manchester, I had to look up Club 43: it was "in the upstairs room of The Clarendon on Oxford Road...in the late 50s, the Musician Union rules prohibiting American musicians from playing in the UK were dropped and the 43 became a good place to hear some of the top American jazzers who were 'ding Europe'.... Oh bloody Hell, taxon has beaten me to it!
	1:11pm Listening Out There: Just finished reading a good biography called Madam. The real stork club shows up in there several times. None o’ this fake stork club stuff…
	1:11pm Stork: Hiya, nice to meet you, taxon rascal - thanks for the great info! I was gonna ask what MU means, but David just provided the answer: Musician Union
	1:12pm northguineahills: @fred: that's where the homeless guests come in, chapel in mandatory for them daily (as well as for myself),
	1:14pm Stork: Listening Out There - right? those fake Stork Clubs really make - hey, waitaminute!
	1:14pm fred: @ngh: there is some really great Xtian music, though I guess they're not into that
	1:15pm chresti: ngh, glad you got your own room
	1:17pm Stork: ngh: sounds like a tough job, but at least somewhat gratifying
	1:18pm chresti: *It's important for heathens to have their own room.
	1:19pm fred: Yeah, why settle for a cheap NJ knock-off when you can enjoy a German NJ original?
	1:19pm Stork: This is stunning - espesh with headphones. Tres trippy!
	🥁 1:20pm David (in London): Howard Skempton in the mix there. V nice.
	1:20pm northguineahills: I also get $50/month for my work (but they don't call it work, mmore of a donation, no w-2s or anything, all in cash).
	1:20pm taxon rascal: No worries David in That London, I’m just happy to find out more about Mancunian musical heritage beyond all the eighties and nineties stuff! I hope they treat you well in the big city.
	1:22pm taxon rascal: And what was that ban all about? It was a massive mistake and we’re suffering again in these times of hostile environment, etc, and hardly get to see foreign musicians outside of the metropolis unless they’re some big industry bands.
	🥁 1:24pm David (in London): Taxon. Yeah, I like finding out about all those old small venues, too. It was all such a charming cottage industry. The Hendrix Experience playing Didsbury Nursing College, ha ha.
	🥁 1:24pm Michael 98145: isolationist nationalism seldom turns out well
	1:25pm taxon rascal: Indeed, Michael. We’ve let a bunch of absolute rotters take control.
	🥁 1:26pm David (in London): The Unions were so strong at that time that there were very stringent rules about employing foreign musicians, which is why so many played with British pick-up bands (John Lee Hooker being backed by the Groundhogs whilst touring the UK etc). It lasted in film and TV well into the 80s.
	1:27pm Stork: I think it was a huge mistake too, taxon rascal - the insane idea that protectionism ever works.
	1:27pm taxon rascal: David , in other Hendrix news, apparently there was a cave in Stockport that was a club where he played, too. I must find out more. It was a youth club for a while and at some point I went to friends art exhibition in it.
	🥁 1:29pm David (in London): Taxon, a cave in Stockport??!! We must know more! I know they held gigs at Chislehurst Caves in Kent (Hendrix, The Floyd etc), but I didn't even realise that Stockport had a cave!
	1:30pm chresti: I remember going through customs at Heathrow in the 80's. They wanted to make sure we weren't coming to work.
	1:31pm Stork: A club in a cave ... hmmm... I HAVE been looking to expand....
	🥁 1:33pm David (in London): Stork, have you ever been to the Neuschwanstein? Ludwig built one room as a replica cave - a literal mancave / King Cave - so he could sit in it and contemplate Wagner's music. It's stupendously bonkers and brilliant.
	1:35pm taxon rascal: Chresti, that was when we did like foreigners!
	🥁 1:36pm Michael 98145: remember that, too @chresti
	1:37pm taxon rascal: Stockport is riddled with caves, something to do with it being sandstone and rainy. Obvs the council don’t like you exploring, but I think a little trip might be in order.
	1:38pm Stork: @David (in London) - i've been TO it, but didn't go in - just tramped around the area. Unfortunately there was so much construction going on at the time that you couldn't walk around much. I was alone and din't want to wait around for an English or German tour. There were some very drunken American 20-somethings there who were kind of embarrassing. I pretended I couldn't speak English.
	1:38pm chresti: Yeah sandstone is... sandy.
	🥁 1:38pm David (in London): Taxon, if you're not back by midday Thursday I'll send out a search party.
	🥁 1:39pm David (in London): The Stork Club live at the Neuschwanstein needs to happen...
	1:39pm Stork: Yo, Michael 98145
	1:41pm Stork: 2/3 of the Bang on a Can originators are in Icebreaker (Gordon and Lang)
	1:42pm StringOFperils: Ludwig's grotto on the grounds of Neuschwanstein is insane. I've been through it in documentaries. Probably on Deutsche Welle, German state television.
	1:42pm Stork: Sorry - I meant to write that Gordon and Lang are composers on the album, not that they're in the ensemble.
	1:42pm TDK60: Interesting music for a winter day that had been sunny but now gray before snow and rain arrives.
	1:43pm headcleaner: fine stuff, Stork - muß aber draußen gehen und Bagels holen - leider, leider
	1:44pm StringOFperils: Sounding lovely on this Sunday afternoon, Stork!
	1:44pm Stork: Hey, some fine Deutsch ther, headcleaner! Bring me back an alees 'dran Bagel with Frischkäse und Lachs!
	1:45pm adamdoesit: These oceanic sounds have been a balm to my ear as I cranked out some stationary miles.
	1:45pm Stork: Scheisse, I can't type today! "alles-'dran Bagel..."
	1:47pm fred: @Stork: Just blame Jersey
	1:48pm Stork: Oh, I do, fred.
	1:49pm chresti: Warm and sunny/ptly cldy in San Gabriel, CA
	1:50pm Stork: Beam me up, chresti
	1:51pm StringOFperils: Schloss Linderhof, not Neuschwanstein...my bad. Knew that couldn't make sense....whatever....
	1:52pm taxon rascal: Thanks for the fine tunes and convo, I’m off out now as I’ve been offered Sunday dinner! All the best to you all.
	🥁 1:52pm David (in London): Ta ta Taxon.
	1:53pm Stork: An, OK StringOFperils: - I didn't know of one at Neuschwanstein. Linderhof is only a 20 minute walk away.
	1:53pm adamdoesit: Stork and fred, a chemical plant in across the river in Passaic went up in flames the other day. I hope you socked away some of that Glen Passaic -- it might be in short supply for a while.
	1:53pm Stork: Hey taxon, thanks for hangin' - see you next Sunday to get a report on that cave?
	1:56pm fred: Many years ago, I was offered a job in Morristown. I declined as I thought NJ was a cesspool of pollution and it was a misunderstanding anyway (my only foray into UX was a hit, but it was a mistake). Funny thing is I only found out about the station later, and probably wouldn't have had I taken that job
	2:04pm chresti: Jeez adamdoesit!
	2:04pm Stork: Coupla links fo ya: www.freejazzblog.org... Fred Van Hove (1937 - 2022) ~ The Free Jazz Collective (freejazzblog.org) gavinbryars.com Gavin Bryars
	2:05pm chresti: Have an enjoyable dinner, taxon.
	2:06pm Stanley: Great to hear Jesus' Blood again
	🥁 2:06pm David (in London): Always thought Gavin looks like he's getting ready to challenge Doug Bradley for the role of Pinhead in that photo.
	2:06pm fred: @adamdoesit: Glen Passaic has to age in rusty discarded drums for years, so the shortage should be way down the line, beyond the life expectancy of any aficionado
	2:07pm TDK60: NGH, you can play this at the shelter, eh?
	2:08pm Stork: Gavin Bryars always reminded me a little of a more heavyset Gene Hackman.
	2:09pm fred: I hope that guy on Jesus' blood got something, but I doubt it
	2:10pm Stork: Exactly, fred. Glen Passaic drinkers should buy their toilet paper one roll at a time.
	2:11pm StringOFperils: Ha ha ha.
	🥁 2:15pm David (in London): Fred, I think he guy died before Bryars had even finished the piece.
	2:16pm Stork: Interesting hearing Frisell playing purely composed music. Great multilayering of guitar tracks, with Balenescu layering on top - sweet!
	2:18pm StringOFperils: Very suited to what BF does with attack and decay and volume control
	2:19pm Stork: @StringOFperils: - yeah, BF's textures can sound like bowing.
	2:20pm StringOFperils: Sounding like Terje Rypdal here
	2:22pm Stork: You read my mind, StringOFperils:
	2:23pm StringOFperils: I didn't peek at the juicy bits, I swear.
	2:24pm Stork: @StringOFperils: you've already seen too much.
	2:25pm StringOFperils: You can say that again
	2:31pm Stanley: I'm very much enjoying the selections, this evening, maestro
	2:32pm Stork: Thank you kindly, Stanley. Of course there's little to choose of his that's unenjoyable.
	2:33pm TDK60: The Discreet LP really surprised me back in the '70s. I was ready for it I guess.
	2:36pm Stork: The chords never resolve - and may they never resolve.
	2:39pm fred: I remember arguing with a friend about the Eno/Bryars connection after that Titanic performance. I don't remember what we were arguing about, probably something momentous like whether Jesus' Blood or Titanic was on side A of a record neither of us ever saw
	2:47pm Listening Out There: Wives Know. Boy, do they know…
	2:47pm StringOFperils: This is knew to me. I have never heard anyone pronounce that in that way....but I trust your wife implicitly.
	2:49pm adamdoesit: fred, that's a relief about the Glen Passaic supply. All this time, I thought the "aged 5 years" on the bottle referred to the effect on the drinker.
	2:49pm Jeff Moore: Lovely show, Herr Larry Storch. A fine change of pace. Not that there was anything wrong with the other pace. But you know.
	2:50pm fred: Looks like I missed Tom Waits while doing laundry. Not complaining
	2:53pm Stork: fred - Jesus was the A-Side. Bryars wasn't taking any chances.
	2:53pm fred: @adamdoesit: it's both, you drink the aging
	2:55pm Stork: Jeff Moore gives you more! Thank you most robustly, sir.
	2:57pm TDK60: Oh no, these players couldn't dream up a band name?
	3:00pm TDK60: Oh, now I see Jon Gibson on the album cover.
	🥁 3:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Halloo !! ...just got myself Boosted in the gym across the street !! ...Added benefit of they Posted the Password for their WiFi Extension stream - which seems good & strong just now @ least ...tho' I still gotta have the laptop by the window facing them... So good to be here.
	3:03pm Stork: Yeah, I think they originally issued this with all their names on it, TDK60, but when Jon Gibson released this around '96 it was on a comp of his, so..
	🥁 3:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& a fine ☿Mercury ℞etrograde it is too ...not that I'm a touch typist anyhow exactly...
	3:04pm Stork: Heya Revolution Rabbit Nov63 and welcome in the joint! Good feeling, no?
	3:04pm TDK60: Thanks Stork. I've gotten hot under the collar on the WFMU boards when I see a band name with 5 or more names listed. I get unpleasant, huffy. It's ugly.
	🥁 3:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am Grateful.
	🥁 3:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...politically satisfying even...
	3:05pm adamdoesit: Rev! booster shots should come with signal boosts more often.
	3:07pm fred: @RRN63: Booster and WiFi? Maybe Bill Gates has a point
	3:08pm Stork: I'm with you, TDK - Emerson, Lake and Palmer - that's it, boys!! YOu're done! Pick three names and END IT!!! Sorry for shouting.
	3:08pm TDK60: I'm glad you got boosted, Revrab63; hope you're not too sore.
	🥁 3:09pm Michael 98145: I suspect we are in for annual boosters ..
	3:09pm TDK60: I gave in after that Young guy joined up with CSN. Made it 4 names tops. 5 is when I lose my cool.
	🥁 3:10pm Michael 98145: ... or Ivermectin suppositories
	3:10pm Stork: Where is it that you have to get vaccinated to enter a liquor store? Um... wouldn't that do the trick? Everywhere?
	3:12pm Stork: TDK60 - right? What are ya, a band or a law firm?
	🥁 3:13pm WR: Did you get the Stork Club licensed appropriately so we can hear "A Man in a Room, Gambling" today?
	🥁 3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Starting to feel the arm soreness - actually a relief I so didn't even feel the needle I kinda doubted it !!... Yeah if Gates is behind the Signal Boost too I might be in his corner this time...
	3:14pm fred: MES had the right idea. He was The Fall, and that was that
	3:14pm Stork: Dang, WR - I wish I had that one! It was one of those I couldn't find. Some day...
	3:16pm Stork: @fred - well he kept my granny gainfully employed as his bongos player for years, but he never let her trade off the band name.
	3:20pm fred: @Stork: A guy I know interviewed him once, MES went and brought two pints before it started. The guy thought it was a nice gesture, but none were for him
	🥁 3:21pm WR: Ridgewood Radio played a selection from it in May 2020. wfmu.org...
	3:21pm doctorjazz: Late arrival, hi Stork and Storkers!
	3:22pm Stork: Greetz, doc!
	3:25pm Stork: I guess the guy didn't know shit about MES. He might've done a little research!
	🥁 3:25pm WR: While I vaguely have known of Gavin Bryars since Portsmouth Sinfonia daze this episode is spectacularly bringing his range into focus for me. Thank you.
	🥁 3:27pm Michael 98145: Thank you again, Münster !
	3:27pm chresti: Yeah if there's more than 3 names, they get the acronym, or they're just "those guys"
	3:27pm fred: @Stork: MES single-handedly made bongo classes a thing in a certain age range
	3:28pm Stork: Thanks for riding along, WR. It's always my point to try and show the whole range. Bryars is rightly known for Jesus' Blood and Titanic, but so little known for most of his stuff, and for all the great collabs and writing for others that he does. This is really just a toe-dip into the Sea of Gavin, as t'were.
	🥁 3:28pm Michael 98145: Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich was a good name
	3:29pm Stork: They get a pass, Miichael 98145
	3:34pm fred: Titanic has been featured to great effect on Kenzo's show, many times
	3:34pm Stork: chresti: I want to make it clear that I was firmly on the side that said include The Professor and Mary Ann in the Gilligan Theme Song. WHen they changed it to "and the rest." - imagine what it must have been like to work with Russell Johnson and Dawn Wells after THAT!
	3:36pm Stork: Using the woodblocks to symbolize the water seeping into the ship was genius.
	🥁 3:36pm WR: This tidbit on his Wikipedia page I find charming. (my edit) Bryars has run The Gavin Bryars Ensemble with his preferred musicians, consisting chiefly of low strings. Now, in addition, this regularly includes his children (2 cellos, piano and double bass)....Bryars .... has a stepdaughter and son.... and two daughters from his first marriage. My father considered us brothers as his basketball team. Bryars has got an ensemble.
	3:38pm Jeff Moore: Thanks, Stork! Thanks to you, Gavin B is no longer "Oh, that Jesus' Blood Never Failed Me Yet weirdo—did he do anything else?" to me.
	3:38pm Stork: WR: how cool must that be to be sawing away, next to your TWO cello-playing daughters.
	3:39pm chresti: Now I'm hearing the Gilligan's Island theme song.
	3:39pm Stork: He's 10x the weirdo you thought him to be, Jeff M!
	3:40pm fred: That part was really moving live, with the pictures too. Smothering
	3:41pm Stork: @Michael 98145: - gern geschehen, Bielefeld!!
	3:42pm Stork: Wish I'd a been there, fred!
	3:44pm Stork: chresti - we're gonna all have nightmares tonight involving Jim Bacchus, Alan Hale, and the Titanic. It can't be avoided.
	3:45pm adamdoesit: Stork, I know I never say this towards the end of your show, but this Gavin Bryars guy is all new to me. The ship still sank, but my musical horizons are broadened, again. Thank you.
	3:46pm Stork: I would've paid you to say that if you hadn't just blurted it for free, adamdoesit!
	3:47pm doctorjazz: Looks like a catch up episode for me in the archives, not very familiar with Bryars either, mostly just a name.
	3:49pm adamdoesit: Stork, when will I learn? Never, so long as you keep the drinks coming.
	3:49pm fred: The friend I mentioned before had seen Titanic before, in a decommissioned pool, with the audience around and the musicians in the pool. That must have been something
	🥁 3:49pm Michael 98145: Watched Titanic w/ Barbara Stanwyck last night
	3:50pm StringOFperils: I forgot about these stretched out "Nearer My God to Thee' quotes
	3:50pm adamdoesit: Titanwyck to its fans, Michael.
	3:51pm Stork: Do it, doc!
	3:51pm Stork: Whoa, fred, that must have been amaze-balls!
	🥁 3:51pm Michael 98145: Great musics here today
	3:52pm Stork: Never saw the flick, Michael 98145.
	3:52pm StringOFperils: Dibs on the diving board at that one, Fred.
	3:52pm Stork: THANKS ALL FOR ANOTHER REALLY SWELL EVENING - GREAT CHATS!!!
	3:54pm Hams: when i played "jesus' blood.." in my college DJ years, a listener felt inclined to call the station & tell me to change the song.
	🥁 3:54pm David (in London): Wow, another stonking, storking show today.
	3:54pm TDK60: Danke, Stork.
	3:54pm Stanley: Ver ver good. Thanks Mr Stork.
	3:55pm chresti: Thanks for the swell morning, Stork!
	3:57pm StringOFperils: Time for the sinking of my breakfast dishes. Thanks a lot, Stork!
	3:58pm Stork: Stanley, chresti, Hams - hullo!!, David in London, Michael, adamdoesit, fred, TDKStorngOFperils and all those who I ran out of time to type - - thank you thank you! Next week agin agin!
	4:00pm fred: Damn, that was before I found that place. I'm like always there now
	4:00pm Jeff Moore: Speaking of "Nearer My God To Thee", is everyone familiar with Ted Turner's CNN doomsday tape? en.m.wikipedia.org...
	🥁 4:01pm WR: Thank you Stork, and now you can let the stream go...
	4:36pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Stork!
