Live on Tony Coulter's show. A track from that live performance made it onto WFMU's first-ever compilation of live guests: They Came, They Played, They Blocked the Driveway.

@Mike: I basically gave up coffee during the lockdown. I miss it
@Doug: I usually ignore my birthday, but this one was the worst: stuck home waiting for power to be restored, while a whisky bottle sent by my brother got lost in transit (still waiting for it)

Hello Chresti! Thanks for swinging through!

I will never give up coffee.

I have started to do some mushroom based “coffee” replacement @chresti. I have found 1 brand that actually tastes good and there is caffeine - but less.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:30pm
fred:

@chresti: Well, by giving up I mean none after 10am, and going from 20+ a day to maybe 4. So nothing
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 3:32pm

Happy Belated, Fred.
I gave up coffee/caffeine for months-missed it, went back, but trying to keep amount under control (would guzzle some caffeine beverage any chance I could)

@doc: I was drinking way too much at a point, and made a deal with myself to buy a record if I kept off the bottle. It worked, but feels like trading addictions

Tell it Billy!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:48pm
Mike Lupica:

Billy is RAD. A worthy follow on Twitter, too. Love the fact that after she wrapped up her tour with Sleaford Mods, she just started working in a local record store and would post about daily musical discoveries made while working.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:49pm
fred:

@doc: your case is complicated, as your wife is torn between bringing down your coffee and record intake. Which one should come down first?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:54pm
Franco Twinkie:

My introduction to Billy. But what I could suss was a deep anger with the status que, a sense of persecution about the unfairness of life...the usual punk tropes. However, the way she compresses the story is what caught my ear.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:55pm
Mike Lupica:

Quite astute! Totally agree!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:01pm

@Franco: A pile of books collapsed yesterday, so now there are two. Any advice on how high a pile can get before intervention is in order? chresti implied you know a lot about the "pile" book storage system

@Mike and Irene: So I gather the beard requirements for filling in were relaxed? Or maybe someone's feels comfortable that no challenge is coming
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:27pm
Franco Twinkie:

Fred@4:01. Random luck more than physics is the operating principle. I just heap book in order to make a clear space to work. Very rarely do I have a collapse that causes me to interrupt the important work of doodling on a scrap of paper. Also, I tend to stack low. The floor is the biggest shelf in the house I always say.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:27pm
fred:

@Mike: It's weird because of how things turned out, but you were instrumental in getting me hooked on WFMU. Thank you for that
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:29pm
Irene Trudel:

Dave and I are old friends. Long ago I ran sound for the Microscopic Septet, of which he was a charter member. We speak lots of music in common (and some not in common). Beard definitely optional in my case.

Well that is awesome to hear, Fred! You are most welcome.

I love Circle and Richard Dawson. Seeing them live would be great, but unlikely

Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:41pm
Mike Lupica:

Too many to choose from!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:47pm
Franco Twinkie:

I was waiting for someone to give this variant a name. Flora themed hypno-folk! I can live with that for the impending disaster...what ever that is.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:47pm
fred:

I was lucky enough to see them separately. Circle were amazing playing Terminal, a metal tribute that was hilarious, earnest and serious at the same time. That's the way they roll, I guess
Avatar Swag For Life Member 4:49pm
Mike Lupica:

I only ever saw Circle when they played at FMU years ago. They had an interaction with a newjack garage rock band that was... interesting.
