	7:06pm Doug Schulkind: Nice one, Julie.
	7:08pm Observations: I'll try to join in as much as possible, but lots to keep my eye on to keep it all moving lol stay tuned!
	7:11pm Bas NL: You sweat at the controls and we'll remain blissfully entertained David! :)
	7:13pm Listener Gregory: Doug, are there any plans for a GTDS show in which the DJ only comments and responds to comments and doesn't have to be distracted by choosing and sequencing music, sound levels, and all that other stuff?
	7:13pm solo mon: Hi! Welcome to the stream!
	7:14pm Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Oh have we got plans!
	7:14pm solo mon: We are all Devo ants?
	7:15pm adamdoesit: "Swimmin' in palm oil out here!"
	7:17pm Doug Schulkind: Was that Marcus Garvey's voice?!
	7:18pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): enjoying this wild ride of a set, thanks, David!
	7:19pm solo mon: Look it all the fun people here to smash this bottle of champagne against SS Deviance!
	7:19pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): smash it, solo, SMASH IT!!
	7:20pm solo mon: Baba bee did you bring the giant scissors??
	7:20pm Dervish: Hope you took a swig first, solo.
	7:20pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I brought my most ginormous scissors!
	7:21pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I have scissors in many sizes, for all occasions
	7:21pm Handy Haversack: Swig for Life!
	7:24pm doctorjazz: Hello, David, welcome to The Stream!
	7:24pm Listener Gregory: I bought a wonderful Lou Harrison CD (used) recently. I was thrilled with this purchase, until I went to file it and discovered it is one of the three CDs of his I already have. Well, I enjoyed hearing it again, which I wouldn't have done for a while, I guess.
	7:27pm doctorjazz: @LG (7:24)-welcome to my world...
	7:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Digging the flow alright.
	7:27pm Dean: Which Lou Harrison CD, LG? I mean if you've purchased it four times we might want to acquire it once...?
	7:28pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): OK, I gotta know, are all of these tracks actually from THIS YEAR?!??!?!
	7:28pm Observations: Keepin it crazy for the people - freeform radio!
	7:29pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Freeform for the deform!!!!
	7:30pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): well, all times are one in the eternal NOW
	7:30pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, La Koro Sutro (New Albion). Heavily gamelan-based. I recommend it.
	7:30pm Dean: Ha! I imagined it was that one. I have it.
	7:31pm Listener Gregory: To clarify, I have only bought it twice—so far…
	7:32pm Dean: Got it. You have three LH CDs, one of which was already LKS. Like doctorjazz, this is a common phenomenon for me.
	7:34pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): oh yeah, La Koro Sutro, very fine and worth buying twice. The prolific Bay Area darling, William Winant plays on that recording.
	7:34pm solo mon: My fav scissors- the tiny ones that look like a birds head
	7:35pm Handy Haversack: Space being notoriously close to Exchange Place.
	7:35pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): solo: those are adorable. I have a little tiny scissors charm that actually moves, but doesn't slice. I suppose I could sharpen them…
	7:36pm Observations: Italian hair!!!!!
	7:36pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): and a pair of shears as long as my forearm— no running with those!
	7:37pm solo mon: Shear danger!
	7:38pm Listener Gregory: Let’s cut up the patriarchy!!
	7:38pm longrally: Sounding sweet
	7:39pm solo mon: LG oh yeah!
	7:42pm solo mon: “Scissors charm” two words that sound awesome together
	7:43pm Bas NL: Wow this Lam Phloen!
	7:44pm Observations: Bas NL - stay tuned, more Thai Molam coming!!
	7:48pm Dean: Ellery Eskelin's dad, again!
	7:48pm Doug Schulkind: Rodd Keith's son once played live on my show. Ellery Eskelin!
	7:50pm Observations: I saw Ellery play live at least once; his Eremite album is nuts!!
	7:50pm Dean: Saw him in LA. I sat a table with his niece.
	7:51pm Dean: ^sat at [goddammit]
	7:52pm PaulRobeson1922: Tongues!
	7:56pm Handy Haversack: JAZZ
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: Eskelin is great. His trio(+) albums on hathut are really good, IMHO.
	7:57pm Listener Gregory: I wonder if the whole show will be like the first hour, or if there’ll be some variety.
	7:58pm alanr: If today is a sample of your curating, then you've got me as another one of your deviants! Congratulations!!
	7:59pm Little Danny: hello david!!! so good to have you here ❤️️
	7:59pm doctorjazz: Rod Keith (Eskelin's dad) was the one that had the business of putting music to people's lyrics, if I remember correctly.
	8:01pm Dean: Denny Zeitlin, a subject of a recent Stork show. The guy's remarkable.
	8:02pm Dean: Ah, yes. A new release of a very old album.
	8:03pm doctorjazz: Just got through Stork's Joe Henderson extravaganza today (took me 2 days to listen, great show!)
	8:03pm PaulRobeson1922: @Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) @7:30: GOOD 2CU! SUBHUTI, a disciple of Buddha, had reached the enlightenment of Great Emptiness, where the Eternal Real and the passing unreal are one. Sitting under a tree in this enlightenment, he found flowers drifting down on him from the tree. And he heard voices. "We are praising your eloquence on Emptiness," said these voices like G-D' voices. "But I have not spoken of Emptiness," murmured Subhuti. "You have not spoken of it. We have not heard it. This is true Emptiness," said the voices, and the flowers fell like rain.
	8:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Do not try to devy me of this show. I will not be devied!
	8:06pm Listener Gregory: Wait, isn’t Denny Zeitlin a mainstream jazz pianist?? Who have I confused him with?
	8:06pm arb: I saw the deviant bat signal and flew over, hi!
	8:07pm Observations: Listener Gregory - DZ had a few small label avant LPs, and this one, but yes, mostly mainstream
	🥁 8:08pm WR: Listener Gregory, I had that impression too until listening to Stork's Zeitlin special a few weeks ago. Now Zeitlin's synth recordings are on my radar.
	8:09pm Dean: Zeitlin is pretty much the opposite of mainstream.
	8:11pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): PaulRobeson1922: likewise!
	8:11pm Little Danny: intense!!!
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: The Zeitlin I know is all piano trios. Bill Evans used to play one of his compositions. Bill Evans!! I’ll have to see Stork’s show and be schooled.
	8:12pm doctorjazz: @LG-it is a bit of a shock (still, even after hearing Stork's Zeitlin special) to hear how "out" Zietlin can be, those recordings never got a lot of play/exposure (that I heard), so I had the same impresion.
	8:12pm solo mon: LD I’m shooooook
	8:12pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): OK! and I have an Ellery Eskelin story, too, but it's more mundane. I went to visit him at his apt for dinner once, in the early 90s, and he pulled out a huge binder of take-out menus. I was quite impressed. Haven't caught up with him in years. Nice fellow.
	8:13pm Little Danny: solo 💙 i vibrated, me
	8:14pm solo mon: Prince Albert in a can?
	8:14pm Little Danny: hey you people :)
	8:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: After Stork's Zeitlin special : wfmu.org... - I was pretty sure that Keith Emerson was a fan of his.
	8:14pm doctorjazz: And, to top it off, Zeitlin managed a jazz piano and psychiatry practice at the same time, gotta hand it to him!
	8:17pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): doctorjazz: I'm imaging it really at the same time
	8:17pm chresti: Hi David and observers!
	8:18pm Dean: Z is still managing it. He has a practice and he continues to record and tour.
	8:18pm Listener Gregory: I met Eskelin at the Downtown Music Gallery once, and I got to tell him how much I enjoyed his music. It's always great to get to do that in a non-weird situation, unlike a concert, where you're afraid of coming off like a stalker. I mean, I DO stalk my faves, but I don't want to come off like that.
	8:19pm Dean: I met Matt Shipp at DMG.
	8:20pm Dean: Still want him to hear Sorabji's Clavicembalisticum.
	8:21pm doctorjazz: Mx. Baba Bee-wouldn't that be a fine therapy session, with Denny Zeitlin playing while you talked...
	8:22pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): CHRESTIKINS! Beloved deviant.
	8:22pm Listener Gregory: I suspect Zeitlin's music would be more helpful than a number of things psychiatrists say...
	8:23pm chresti: MX BBKINS!
	8:23pm doctorjazz: My last visit to DMG, Kurt Gottschalk had a trio playing there (it was the Sunday night before the COVID lockdown).
	8:26pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ooh, this is lovely
	8:27pm doctorjazz: Got to hear Redman, McBride, Mehldau and Blade this past week (great show-they're on tour, recommend seeing them if you can). Also Wilco, their Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Anniversary tour, also a fine show.
	8:28pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, you are making me sick!
	8:29pm Listener Gregory: @doctor, did they integrate Nels Cline into the Yankee tribute, or just redo the songs as on the album?
	8:29pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): LG: all the better to treat you!
	8:30pm doctorjazz: And, what should be a good show to stream tomorrow night, Frank Vignola, with Dave Stryker (for you guitar junkies-two great players) platform.flymachine.com...
	8:30pm solo mon: Help! Is there a Jazz Doctor in the house??? ;-)
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: Mx BB, I am still reeling from your west-coast percussion knowledge re: Winant. I need a prescription of some kind, that's for sure.
	8:32pm doctorjazz: @LG-Wilco isn't the band it was when Yankee Hotel Foxtrot came out (different members); Tweedy had them all learn the parts exactly (which I understand wasn't easy); that's what they played (they added a string quartet and 3 horn players to the mix)
	8:33pm doctorjazz: Take 2 beebop solos and call me in the morning...
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: That is probably as the fans would prefer... but not the more interesting route.
	8:34pm doctorjazz: I would also have preferred they adapt it to the great players they have, but it was still pretty amazing to hear live.
	8:36pm Listener Gregory: I love Nels Cline so much that I would always prefer to hear him going crazy, even if the rest of the band is just doing its normal thing. But a tribute to an album is a genre, I guess.
	8:36pm doctorjazz: (I am a big Nels Cline fan...will get to hear him at the Solid Sounds festival, he will have his own sets there)
	8:40pm doctorjazz: I took my older daughter to see Sex Mob at the old City Winery-generally a fairly safe group to see for the non-jazz-obsessed. That night they had Nels and John Modesky sit in. Steve Bernstein just praised Nels to the sky, and basically turned him loose, electronics and all, and the band followed. They played a great, noisy, skronky set (but my daughter was NOT amused or entertained...)
	8:42pm coelacanth∅: Greetings and Welcome to the air David Mittleman
	8:43pm Doug Schulkind: Looks like our host has satisfied the Drummer Stream's mandatory "multiple umlaut" requirement. Good to get it out of the way early.
	8:44pm doctorjazz: I thought the stream cut out the Mittleman (ouch)...
	8:45pm coelacanth∅: 3, + other weird over-letter things... um, that's a laut.
	8:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: Question for the DJ: How many bands were you in in high school?
	8:45pm solo mon: As long as you don’t say um a lot on the mic.
	8:46pm arb: Unless you are talking about Uncle Michael
	8:47pm Observations: Ken From Hyde Park @ just briefly trumpet in school band, that's it, don't really play an instrument
	8:47pm Listener Gregory: My grandma used to call me a big laüt.
	8:47pm Little Danny: döüg!!!
	8:49pm solo mon: ÄRBlaut
	8:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: As a third-chair HS cornet player myself, I understand your experience.
	8:51pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, great stream Debut, thanks, David!
	8:53pm Observations: doctorjazz thx!
	8:54pm Ike: Welcome Mr. Obs, sounds great!
	8:56pm Listener Gregory: Loving Yamash'ta, but I have to return to the real world now, where references to Eskelin or Lou Harrison result in a blank stare. The show sounds great, Mr. ObsDev! Thanks a lot.
	8:57pm Irene Trudel: Tuning in a little late due to my work day. Congratulations on your first show for Give the Drummer Radio, David! I'll have to catch up with the rest in the archives.
	8:59pm Doug Schulkind: Lïttlë Dännÿ!
	9:01pm solo mon: Pretty good musical representation of how my mind works
	9:04pm coelacanth∅: David's voice is slightly similar to Doug's
	9:07pm Doug Schulkind: This Saturno 2000 comp is intoxicating.
	9:07pm solo mon: Cumbia getting the popcorn treatment, cool!
	9:14pm Observations: Rai!
	9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Glad to have another soldier in the Army of Dave present, btw. We Are Legion.
	9:18pm Little Danny: beautiful sounds!
	9:18pm chresti: And DJ ironybread's voice at a slightly higher register, coel.
	9:19pm Observations: Little Danny - thx! Glad you dig the tunes!
	9:20pm Doug Schulkind: The Drummer Stream now boasts four David/Daves and one Knave.
	9:21pm northguineahills: hola, David, welcome aboard!
	9:21pm Irene Trudel: Wow, didn't know about these Hemeto reissues! I have a few of Pascoal's albums, but need more. So great!
	9:21pm Observations: BTW - very important - my name is **DAVID* not Dave. Thanks for understanding, no hatred for Daves, but I'm not one. Peace
	9:21pm coelacanth∅: Doug, but many Faves.
	9:23pm Dean: Observations of Dave-iance!
	9:23pm coelacanth∅: chresti YES! ...and i knew you'd hear it!
	9:23pm Doug Schulkind: @coelacanth∅ ♥♥♥
	9:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DAVID - 100% with you on that. Myself, just came to accept 'Dave' to be sociable. Not my actual preference. ...Running the astrological chart for the start of this Program ! Would you indulge me by enlightening me as to which which City this is coming out of ?
	9:26pm Observations: Tucson! Sorry forgot to mention, and no worries, I'm used to Dave after 51 years, but I di like to clarify, hope you understand
	9:27pm Observations: *do
	9:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx ! ...& that may be empowering, in fact...
	9:28pm coelacanth∅: you may call me coelacanth, coal, coela, 'canth, CC, fishface, fish, living fossil, Chuck... just don't call me late to dinner.
	9:29pm Bas NL: Thanks for the great sounds David! Way past my bed time here so got to say goodbye. And see you later all!
	9:30pm coelacanth∅: (...sealy, as Dave Sewelson calls me)
	9:30pm coelacanth∅: gnight Bas
	9:31pm northguineahills: Alcapone on Cherry Red, nice....
	9:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So 7 PM east coast was 5 PM Tucson time when program started, correct ?
	9:33pm Observations: No - 4pm, AZ is weird, don't do daylight savings. But right now east coast is 3 hours ahead
	9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aha - Thx !
	9:34pm coelacanth∅: ngh - and Nora Dean was worried about a scorpion
	9:36pm solo mon: David, sounds good to me!
	9:38pm Irene Trudel: G'nite, Bas!

	🥁 7:03pm WR: But you did make me look,
	7:04pm Bas NL: Hello David! Ready to observe!
	7:04pm Dean: I take humor very seriously, too much so. But the image does invite that kind of reading.
	7:04pm adamdoesit: Hi David! You're coming in loud and clear. I'm excited for the new sounds.
	7:04pm Jeff Golick: Hooray, David!

	7:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Welcome ! ...lots of Mick Farren then ? :D j/k...
	7:06pm Listener Gregory: I wanted to be able to tell my grandkids I heard the first show of OoD. Well, now I've got the first half accomplished, must get to work on the second half.
	7:06pm Doug Schulkind: Nice one, Julie.
	7:08pm Observations: I'll try to join in as much as possible, but lots to keep my eye on to keep it all moving lol stay tuned!
	7:11pm Bas NL: You sweat at the controls and we'll remain blissfully entertained David! :)
	7:13pm Listener Gregory: Doug, are there any plans for a GTDS show in which the DJ only comments and responds to comments and doesn't have to be distracted by choosing and sequencing music, sound levels, and all that other stuff?
	7:13pm solo mon: Hi! Welcome to the stream!
	7:14pm Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Oh have we got plans!
	7:14pm solo mon: We are all Devo ants?
	7:15pm adamdoesit: "Swimmin' in palm oil out here!"
	7:17pm Doug Schulkind: Was that Marcus Garvey's voice?!
	7:18pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): enjoying this wild ride of a set, thanks, David!
	7:19pm solo mon: Look it all the fun people here to smash this bottle of champagne against SS Deviance!
	7:19pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): smash it, solo, SMASH IT!!
	7:20pm solo mon: Baba bee did you bring the giant scissors??
	7:20pm Dervish: Hope you took a swig first, solo.
	7:20pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I brought my most ginormous scissors!
	7:21pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): I have scissors in many sizes, for all occasions
	7:21pm Handy Haversack: Swig for Life!
	7:24pm doctorjazz: Hello, David, welcome to The Stream!
	7:24pm Listener Gregory: I bought a wonderful Lou Harrison CD (used) recently. I was thrilled with this purchase, until I went to file it and discovered it is one of the three CDs of his I already have. Well, I enjoyed hearing it again, which I wouldn't have done for a while, I guess.
	7:27pm doctorjazz: @LG (7:24)-welcome to my world...
	7:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Digging the flow alright.
	7:27pm Dean: Which Lou Harrison CD, LG? I mean if you've purchased it four times we might want to acquire it once...?
	7:28pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): OK, I gotta know, are all of these tracks actually from THIS YEAR?!??!?!
	7:28pm Observations: Keepin it crazy for the people - freeform radio!
	7:29pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): Freeform for the deform!!!!
	7:30pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): well, all times are one in the eternal NOW
	7:30pm Listener Gregory: @Dean, La Koro Sutro (New Albion). Heavily gamelan-based. I recommend it.
	7:30pm Dean: Ha! I imagined it was that one. I have it.
	7:31pm Listener Gregory: To clarify, I have only bought it twice—so far…
	7:32pm Dean: Got it. You have three LH CDs, one of which was already LKS. Like doctorjazz, this is a common phenomenon for me.
	7:34pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): oh yeah, La Koro Sutro, very fine and worth buying twice. The prolific Bay Area darling, William Winant plays on that recording.
	7:34pm solo mon: My fav scissors- the tiny ones that look like a birds head
	7:35pm Handy Haversack: Space being notoriously close to Exchange Place.
	7:35pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): solo: those are adorable. I have a little tiny scissors charm that actually moves, but doesn't slice. I suppose I could sharpen them…
	7:36pm Observations: Italian hair!!!!!
	7:36pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): and a pair of shears as long as my forearm— no running with those!
	7:37pm solo mon: Shear danger!
	7:38pm Listener Gregory: Let’s cut up the patriarchy!!
	7:38pm longrally: Sounding sweet
	7:39pm solo mon: LG oh yeah!
	7:42pm solo mon: “Scissors charm” two words that sound awesome together
	7:43pm Bas NL: Wow this Lam Phloen!
	7:44pm Observations: Bas NL - stay tuned, more Thai Molam coming!!
	7:48pm Dean: Ellery Eskelin's dad, again!
	7:48pm Doug Schulkind: Rodd Keith's son once played live on my show. Ellery Eskelin!
	7:50pm Observations: I saw Ellery play live at least once; his Eremite album is nuts!!
	7:50pm Dean: Saw him in LA. I sat a table with his niece.
	7:51pm Dean: ^sat at [goddammit]
	7:52pm PaulRobeson1922: Tongues!
	7:56pm Handy Haversack: JAZZ
	7:56pm Listener Gregory: Eskelin is great. His trio(+) albums on hathut are really good, IMHO.
	7:57pm Listener Gregory: I wonder if the whole show will be like the first hour, or if there’ll be some variety.
	7:58pm alanr: If today is a sample of your curating, then you've got me as another one of your deviants! Congratulations!!
	7:59pm Little Danny: hello david!!! so good to have you here ❤️️
	7:59pm doctorjazz: Rod Keith (Eskelin's dad) was the one that had the business of putting music to people's lyrics, if I remember correctly.
	8:01pm Dean: Denny Zeitlin, a subject of a recent Stork show. The guy's remarkable.
	8:02pm Dean: Ah, yes. A new release of a very old album.
	8:03pm doctorjazz: Just got through Stork's Joe Henderson extravaganza today (took me 2 days to listen, great show!)
	8:03pm PaulRobeson1922: @Mx. Baba Bee (e/they) @7:30: GOOD 2CU! SUBHUTI, a disciple of Buddha, had reached the enlightenment of Great Emptiness, where the Eternal Real and the passing unreal are one. Sitting under a tree in this enlightenment, he found flowers drifting down on him from the tree. And he heard voices. "We are praising your eloquence on Emptiness," said these voices like G-D' voices. "But I have not spoken of Emptiness," murmured Subhuti. "You have not spoken of it. We have not heard it. This is true Emptiness," said the voices, and the flowers fell like rain.
	8:05pm Ken From Hyde Park: Do not try to devy me of this show. I will not be devied!
	8:06pm Listener Gregory: Wait, isn’t Denny Zeitlin a mainstream jazz pianist?? Who have I confused him with?
	8:06pm arb: I saw the deviant bat signal and flew over, hi!
	8:07pm Observations: Listener Gregory - DZ had a few small label avant LPs, and this one, but yes, mostly mainstream
	🥁 8:08pm WR: Listener Gregory, I had that impression too until listening to Stork's Zeitlin special a few weeks ago. Now Zeitlin's synth recordings are on my radar.
	8:09pm Dean: Zeitlin is pretty much the opposite of mainstream.
	8:11pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): PaulRobeson1922: likewise!
	8:11pm Little Danny: intense!!!
	8:11pm Listener Gregory: The Zeitlin I know is all piano trios. Bill Evans used to play one of his compositions. Bill Evans!! I’ll have to see Stork’s show and be schooled.
	8:12pm doctorjazz: @LG-it is a bit of a shock (still, even after hearing Stork's Zeitlin special) to hear how "out" Zietlin can be, those recordings never got a lot of play/exposure (that I heard), so I had the same impresion.
	8:12pm solo mon: LD I’m shooooook
	8:12pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): OK! and I have an Ellery Eskelin story, too, but it's more mundane. I went to visit him at his apt for dinner once, in the early 90s, and he pulled out a huge binder of take-out menus. I was quite impressed. Haven't caught up with him in years. Nice fellow.
	8:13pm Little Danny: solo 💙 i vibrated, me
	8:14pm solo mon: Prince Albert in a can?
	8:14pm Little Danny: hey you people :)
	8:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: After Stork's Zeitlin special : wfmu.org... - I was pretty sure that Keith Emerson was a fan of his.
	8:14pm doctorjazz: And, to top it off, Zeitlin managed a jazz piano and psychiatry practice at the same time, gotta hand it to him!
	8:17pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): doctorjazz: I'm imaging it really at the same time
	8:17pm chresti: Hi David and observers!
	8:18pm Dean: Z is still managing it. He has a practice and he continues to record and tour.
	8:18pm Listener Gregory: I met Eskelin at the Downtown Music Gallery once, and I got to tell him how much I enjoyed his music. It's always great to get to do that in a non-weird situation, unlike a concert, where you're afraid of coming off like a stalker. I mean, I DO stalk my faves, but I don't want to come off like that.
	8:19pm Dean: I met Matt Shipp at DMG.
	8:20pm Dean: Still want him to hear Sorabji's Clavicembalisticum.
	8:21pm doctorjazz: Mx. Baba Bee-wouldn't that be a fine therapy session, with Denny Zeitlin playing while you talked...
	8:22pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): CHRESTIKINS! Beloved deviant.
	8:22pm Listener Gregory: I suspect Zeitlin's music would be more helpful than a number of things psychiatrists say...
	8:23pm chresti: MX BBKINS!
	8:23pm doctorjazz: My last visit to DMG, Kurt Gottschalk had a trio playing there (it was the Sunday night before the COVID lockdown).
	8:26pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): ooh, this is lovely
	8:27pm doctorjazz: Got to hear Redman, McBride, Mehldau and Blade this past week (great show-they're on tour, recommend seeing them if you can). Also Wilco, their Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Anniversary tour, also a fine show.
	8:28pm Listener Gregory: @doctorj, you are making me sick!
	8:29pm Listener Gregory: @doctor, did they integrate Nels Cline into the Yankee tribute, or just redo the songs as on the album?
	8:29pm Mx. Baba Bee (e/they): LG: all the better to treat you!
	8:30pm doctorjazz: And, what should be a good show to stream tomorrow night, Frank Vignola, with Dave Stryker (for you guitar junkies-two great players) platform.flymachine.com...
	8:30pm solo mon: Help! Is there a Jazz Doctor in the house??? ;-)
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: Mx BB, I am still reeling from your west-coast percussion knowledge re: Winant. I need a prescription of some kind, that's for sure.
	8:32pm doctorjazz: @LG-Wilco isn't the band it was when Yankee Hotel Foxtrot came out (different members); Tweedy had them all learn the parts exactly (which I understand wasn't easy); that's what they played (they added a string quartet and 3 horn players to the mix)
	8:33pm doctorjazz: Take 2 beebop solos and call me in the morning...
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: That is probably as the fans would prefer... but not the more interesting route.
	8:34pm doctorjazz: I would also have preferred they adapt it to the great players they have, but it was still pretty amazing to hear live.
	8:36pm Listener Gregory: I love Nels Cline so much that I would always prefer to hear him going crazy, even if the rest of the band is just doing its normal thing. But a tribute to an album is a genre, I guess.
	8:36pm doctorjazz: (I am a big Nels Cline fan...will get to hear him at the Solid Sounds festival, he will have his own sets there)
	8:40pm doctorjazz: I took my older daughter to see Sex Mob at the old City Winery-generally a fairly safe group to see for the non-jazz-obsessed. That night they had Nels and John Modesky sit in. Steve Bernstein just praised Nels to the sky, and basically turned him loose, electronics and all, and the band followed. They played a great, noisy, skronky set (but my daughter was NOT amused or entertained...)
	8:42pm coelacanth∅: Greetings and Welcome to the air David Mittleman
	8:43pm Doug Schulkind: Looks like our host has satisfied the Drummer Stream's mandatory "multiple umlaut" requirement. Good to get it out of the way early.
	8:44pm doctorjazz: I thought the stream cut out the Mittleman (ouch)...
	8:45pm coelacanth∅: 3, + other weird over-letter things... um, that's a laut.
	8:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: Question for the DJ: How many bands were you in in high school?
	8:45pm solo mon: As long as you don’t say um a lot on the mic.
	8:46pm arb: Unless you are talking about Uncle Michael
	8:47pm Observations: Ken From Hyde Park @ just briefly trumpet in school band, that's it, don't really play an instrument
	8:47pm Listener Gregory: My grandma used to call me a big laüt.
	8:47pm Little Danny: döüg!!!
	8:49pm solo mon: ÄRBlaut
	8:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: As a third-chair HS cornet player myself, I understand your experience.
	8:51pm doctorjazz: Gotta run, great stream Debut, thanks, David!
	8:53pm Observations: doctorjazz thx!
	8:54pm Ike: Welcome Mr. Obs, sounds great!
	8:56pm Listener Gregory: Loving Yamash'ta, but I have to return to the real world now, where references to Eskelin or Lou Harrison result in a blank stare. The show sounds great, Mr. ObsDev! Thanks a lot.
	8:57pm Irene Trudel: Tuning in a little late due to my work day. Congratulations on your first show for Give the Drummer Radio, David! I'll have to catch up with the rest in the archives.
	8:59pm Doug Schulkind: Lïttlë Dännÿ!
	9:01pm solo mon: Pretty good musical representation of how my mind works
	9:04pm coelacanth∅: David's voice is slightly similar to Doug's
	9:07pm Doug Schulkind: This Saturno 2000 comp is intoxicating.
	9:07pm solo mon: Cumbia getting the popcorn treatment, cool!
	9:14pm Observations: Rai!
	9:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Glad to have another soldier in the Army of Dave present, btw. We Are Legion.
	9:18pm Little Danny: beautiful sounds!
	9:18pm chresti: And DJ ironybread's voice at a slightly higher register, coel.
	9:19pm Observations: Little Danny - thx! Glad you dig the tunes!
	9:20pm Doug Schulkind: The Drummer Stream now boasts four David/Daves and one Knave.
	9:21pm northguineahills: hola, David, welcome aboard!
	9:21pm Irene Trudel: Wow, didn't know about these Hemeto reissues! I have a few of Pascoal's albums, but need more. So great!
	9:21pm Observations: BTW - very important - my name is **DAVID* not Dave. Thanks for understanding, no hatred for Daves, but I'm not one. Peace
	9:21pm coelacanth∅: Doug, but many Faves.
	9:23pm Dean: Observations of Dave-iance!
	9:23pm coelacanth∅: chresti YES! ...and i knew you'd hear it!

	9:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: DAVID - 100% with you on that. Myself, just came to accept 'Dave' to be sociable. Not my actual preference. ...Running the astrological chart for the start of this Program ! Would you indulge me by enlightening me as to which which City this is coming out of ?
	9:26pm Observations: Tucson! Sorry forgot to mention, and no worries, I'm used to Dave after 51 years, but I di like to clarify, hope you understand
	9:27pm Observations: *do
	9:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx ! ...& that may be empowering, in fact...
	9:28pm coelacanth∅: you may call me coelacanth, coal, coela, 'canth, CC, fishface, fish, living fossil, Chuck... just don't call me late to dinner.
	9:29pm Bas NL: Thanks for the great sounds David! Way past my bed time here so got to say goodbye. And see you later all!
	9:30pm coelacanth∅: (...sealy, as Dave Sewelson calls me)
	9:30pm coelacanth∅: gnight Bas

	9:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So 7 PM east coast was 5 PM Tucson time when program started, correct ?
	9:33pm Observations: No - 4pm, AZ is weird, don't do daylight savings. But right now east coast is 3 hours ahead
	9:33pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aha - Thx !
	9:34pm coelacanth∅: ngh - and Nora Dean was worried about a scorpion

	9:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well that would put the very last degree of ♍︎Virgo on the Ascendant in Tucson start of the Program. This is of course the ⦿Sun in ♉︎Taurus time of the year - two Earth element signs - practical & sensual. Moody ☽Moon tonight tho still in mystical empathic imaginative Water element sign ♓︎Pisces - ready to join attractive aesthetic Lady ♀︎Venus (Exalted in ♓︎Pisces), nebulous inspiring King ♆Neptune (Modern Ruler of ♓︎Pisces, & the planet of Music more than any other imho) & then expansive optimistic fortunate Father ♃Jupiter (Traditional Ruler of ♓︎Pisces) here by ☌Conjunction in that order... It is Chinese Year of the Water 🐅Tiger...
	9:51pm Doug Schulkind: That Wganda Kenya track was amazing. A South African melody!
	9:52pm chresti: Thanks David!
