Becky! Tonka Trucks!

Becky, is it too late to add a-twirlable dancing skirts to the premium package for this year?

I was thinking a grim reaper teddy boy icon for the creepy rockabilly premium theme
Avatar 8:05pm
Becky:

Howdy friends!!!
Avatar 8:05pm
Becky:

@Handy I think I probably need a subsidy for that.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:05pm
Handy Haversack:

Circle of life, Becky. Circle of life.

ultradamno, Destroit, Niall, Whippoorwill, Pauly, and all the trucks yet to join the convoy (Loveless?): hey there!
  8:06pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

Like I said at the top of Matt’s show, after weeks of listening to archives, I’m finally here live.
So glad!!!!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:06pm
loveless:

Bring up the caboose. Hello all.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:08pm
ultradamno:

Hiya Handy!

dano59:

I think being a collector isn’t an obstacle in itself, it’s pulling stuff for radio and (past) live DJ gigs that has put all my media in disarray. CDs, 45s, LPs … aaaughhh! It messes with my Virgo tendencies
  8:10pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

Not sure If my email went through, but I’m the one that emailed about “Because They’re Young” getting labeled as “40 miles of Bad Road”
Then of course I went back the the archive show and saw it was already corrected by the last set break.
Sorry I didn’t see that 1st.
Avatar 8:12pm
Becky:

Daybreak, I didn't see that email! But yes, I self-corrected. :)

Matt_E:

Good evening from Austin
Avatar 8:13pm
Niall:

I'd like very much to get an HTRG premium this go-round, I think.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:14pm
steveo:

Rita Robbins brings all the clicky-stars to the yard! Good evening, enjoying the show :)
Avatar 8:14pm
Becky:

I might play a record or two that lands on the premium tonight! I'll never tell.
  8:14pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

Damn straight Rita!
Sing it!
  8:15pm
dano59:

I love my HTRG t-shirt from last yr. I tried for a copy of Dern Ya! from the prize warehouse but., alas..
  8:16pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

Glad to hear it Becky,
Thanks for putting me on the “Because They’re Young” beat.
I have sent it to several Jeopardy fans.
It must pre-date the show too!
Wild!
Avatar 8:16pm
Becky:

Avi Spivak really knocked it out of the park with last year's T-shirt.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:17pm
Handy Haversack:

I don't get any white T-shirts, but every time I was at the station to fold shirts or stuff envelopes, those HTRG shirts made me question my resolve!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:18pm
Handy Haversack:

PS: Holy crap, am I excited for Marathon! It's like the only holiday it's still OK to like!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:18pm
Destroit:

Hiya Handy. I have a “beastin the airwaves” white t shirt
  8:20pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

Hell yes St. Dolly!
Avatar 8:20pm
Whippoorwill:

I second the Dolly nomination, does anyone stand opposed?
  8:21pm
DanFA:

St. Dolly of Parton. Here here.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:21pm
loveless:

Johnny C? Johnny Cash? Oh, it's Johnny Sea.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:21pm
Handy Haversack:

I like St. Dolly of the Wood.
Avatar 8:22pm
Becky:

You need to perform a miracle to be a saint. CR set a piece of paper on fire. Dolly fought a pandemic. I think we're good here.
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:22pm
ultradamno:

I only accept saints that have died horribly. It's really the whole point, is that you start the story knowing it ends in torture and dismemberment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:22pm
Handy Haversack:

Makes the pagan derivation clearer. Also works on several levels!
Avatar 🎸 Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:23pm
ultradamno:

and/or immolation
Avatar 8:23pm
Whippoorwill:

p.s. I'm still trying to think of a HTRG moniker for Kitty Wells
Avatar 8:25pm
Matt_E:

@ultradamno - death by arrows works, too
  8:25pm
dano59:

Saints? Dolly’s a shoo-in.
Mine was always Linda Ronstadt. But here, I like Doug Sahm, Hank Snow, Johnny Cash and Nudie Cohn
  8:27pm
DanFA:

Can we also canonize George Jones? He drove a tractor to a liquor store. Miracle performed!
  8:28pm
Andres:

That Jerry Reed certainly chased the blues away. So great!
Avatar 8:29pm
Becky:

@DanFA You have a helluva point
  8:29pm

Phil Alvin’s got a little Gene in him
Avatar 8:30pm
Becky:

Patron Saint Possum just lifted the needle from Bobby Bare
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:30pm
Destroit:

Sing it Bobby Bare
  8:31pm
DanFA:

@Becky another miracle performed, and from beyond the grave. Praise be to Possum!
Avatar 8:32pm
Whippoorwill:

This years HTRG premium will be Patron Saint candles
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:33pm
Ken From Hyde Park:

A set of HTRG saint playing cards?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:35pm
Handy Haversack:

DanFA (@ 8:27): I'll be right back. Just gonna perform a quick miracle and grab some gin while I'm at it!
Avatar 8:35pm
timinoak:

I remember singing along with the Bare Drop Kick Me Jesus song
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:35pm
Feldy:

Digging the show, Becky
Avatar 8:36pm
Becky:

@Whippoorwill I've always wanted to do that!! But the shipping costs would probably bankrupt the station. Maybe stickers you can put on your own candles??
Avatar 8:37pm
timinoak:

Which of course got my David Allen Coe You Never Even Called Me By My Name song going
  8:37pm
dano59:

What’d Laura Cantrell call KW on her Kitty tribute?
  8:38pm
Andres:

HRTG patron saint beer cozies.
  8:38pm
Andres:

*HTRG
  8:38pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

If Saints need a miracle,
then Dolly’s got it.
Scenario:
Your boss just decided she’s gonna pay everyone who works here’s college tuition.
The response:
That’s a miracle!
(Openly weeping)
  8:40pm
Daybreak says what? eh? speak up.:

You are all suggesting next years
HTRG premium.
This years was selected and ordered months ago
(I suspect)
Avatar 8:40pm
Whippoorwill:

@Becky Stickers would be a great solution. Maybe get Avi involved??
Avatar 8:41pm
Becky:

@Daybreak you're very kind regarding our advance planning. But yes, this year is locked.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:41pm
Handy Haversack:

My Three Chord Monte beer koozie is very well traveled at this point, and I send Joe B. pix of it in hot canoe action from various bodies of water around the East Coast!
  8:41pm
dano59:

Stickers work … like Creem’s Boy Howdy beer-can wrappers
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:42pm
Handy Haversack:

The Marty McSorley tall boy koozie fits a bottle of Rittenhouse rye disturbingly well.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 8:48pm
Mr. Fine Wine:

Tipsy is killer! And I'm not even tipsy!
  8:49pm
Andres:

Tipsy is giving me ideas. As is Handy’s rye whiskey koozie.

Becky:

@MFW: Mays.

DanFA:

I think the person does have to be dead in order to be canonized in keeping with Catholicism.

Howdy all, a little late.

Thanks all!

Actually it’s 2 miracles for canonization, one for beatification
