WFMU: Honky Tonk Radio Girl with Becky: Playlist from May 4, 2022

Listener comments!
	8:03pm ultradamno: Becky! Tonkies!
	8:04pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya, Becky, gang!
	👻 8:04pm Handy Haversack: Becky! Tonka Trucks! Trying to hang on the FM, but reception's been rough the past few days. Might need to switch on the targeting computer.
	8:04pm loveless: Dolly made it into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Hello all.
	👻 8:06pm Destroit: Hi Becky, hi everyone! Present and ready to listen.
	8:06pm Becky: Greetings, Tonkies.
	👻 8:06pm PigeonsAndRust: Howdy! Thanks Becky for keeping me company--and awake-- on the long drive home
	8:09pm BH: The RNRHOF inducting Dolly does sorta overshadow them inducting Eminem in the same group Not sure how one would lay it out, but a Dolly/Eminem collab would be one of the unexpected pairings possible? maybe some other word to describe that?
	8:10pm ultradamno: Has there ever been a cowpunk no wave subgenre called skronky tonk?
	👻 8:10pm Handy Haversack: Skronkin' Tonk Honkson is touring this summer I think, ultradamno.
	8:11pm ultradamno: And, tumbleweeds can be super aggressive about it twitter.com... Makes sense considering they're Russian www.smithsonianmag.com...
	8:11pm Becky: Skronky tonk sounds pretty rad, tbh
	8:12pm dano59: Took all the tumbleweeds, put ‘em in a weed museum and charged all the people a silver dollar & a half just to see ‘em
	8:13pm dano59: I thought Dolly asked to not be inducted
	8:14pm Rebecca: Holy shit, Becky! This is perfect, how did you know?!?
	8:14pm ultradamno: She took that back about a week ago...I don't know if that jackass from Judas Priest had any further comment.
	8:14pm Becky: Yeah @dano, I'm not sure what's up with that.
	8:15pm patrick321: Hey Becky and all
	8:16pm ultradamno: "I never meant to cause trouble" Dolly says...because trouble finds her, and regrets it! news.yahoo.com...
	👻 8:16pm Handy Haversack: Glad we're hearing from the women tonight. It'd be horrible if, say, one or more branches of the government tried to control or silence them. Glad we never have to worry about that here at the HTRG Honky Tonk!
	8:17pm BH: Dolly's Tweet today: "I am honored and humbled by the fact that I have been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Of course I will accept it gracefully. Thanks to everyone that voted for me and to everyone at the @rockhall. I will continue to work hard and try to live up to the honor." twitter.com...
	8:17pm Becky: Thanks ultradamno, this is an awesome interview.
	8:17pm dano59: More people telling the HoF to stick it would be great. Not that she did.
	👻 8:19pm Handy Haversack: " I may do up a version of something like [Lynyrd Skynyrd’s] “Free Bird”" Someone call Ken back to the station!
	8:20pm ultradamno: Well, the hall has always had a place for people in adjacent genres that inform rock proper, so I don't think there was any call for her to demure from it. I do agree that it is a fundamentally stupid institution, however.
	8:22pm Becky: I think it makes sense that she wanted to leave a path for more straight ahead rock acts. I think she probably knows she is universally adored and would automatically get the vote :)
	8:22pm ultradamno: Everytime they go through this nominating rigamarole I always think of Rick Moranis in Spaceballs "You're always preparing, what are you preparing for JUST GO!"
	👻 8:23pm Handy Haversack: I think today is national Spaceballs day, right? May the Schwarz?
	8:23pm ultradamno: Need to call up Blumin for nat'l day consultation...
	8:24pm Benjamin: wow!
	👻 8:24pm Destroit: Where has Kay Adams been my whole life?
	8:24pm dano59: She could do “Sin City” with Eminem, or one of Todd’s tunes with him
	8:25pm BH: Duran Duran getting into the RNRHOF means that a bunch of people have to adjust their "biggest RNRHOF snub" listicles for next year The full RNRHOF class: Dully, Eminem, Duran Duran, Lionel Richie, Pat Benetar, Eurythmics, and Carly Simon. So that's quite a few 1980s MTV stars in one group
	8:25pm ultradamno: So...NY Dolls snubbed, is the headline
	8:26pm Rebecca: Oh! Roe v. Wade! duh, thought it was about my shitty boyfriend.
	8:26pm Becky: Unfortunately I have no Star Wars-themed country records to share today.
	8:26pm Becky: Rebecca, who is to say it can't be about both?
	8:27pm Zike: David Johansen so underrated!
	8:28pm dano59: OK … Dolly & Pat on ‘Shadows in the Night’ Dolly & Lionel on ‘Hello’
	8:28pm BH: nobody saw Urban Cowboy and Empire Strikes Back in the same weekend and decided to record a crossover?
	8:28pm loveless: @ultradamno Then don't read this. www.vulture.com...
	8:28pm Becky: Got to see DJ live a few years ago, it was transcendent!
	8:29pm ultradamno: Though all the endless jerking around of Link Wray will always top the biggest snubs for me
	8:30pm dano59: Duane Eddy was on the ballot the first 8 years in a row until John Fogerty stepped in
	8:31pm BH: meanwhile the Country Music HOF moves at a glacial pace for inducting people
	8:32pm Rebecca: Very true and I'm glad: the idea of telepathic radio is super weird.
	8:32pm ultradamno: @loveless I remember asking a guy at my local record store about the Dolls when I first started getting into punk and basically spat words of a homophobic nature...I picked up the album as a cutout at Mash supermarket almost immediately instead. The guy slamming MC5 is more confusing.
	8:33pm ultradamno: (I do agree Back In The USA suffers from it's production, though)
	8:34pm Therese: Tell it, Ms. Loretta!
	👻 8:34pm Handy Haversack: I think about the R&RHOF once a year when people mention it here and then it fades back into the background of "Stuff in America that will never be relevant to me." Like hockey or Oklahoma or bass fishing. Loretta Lynn, though, feels intensely relevant!
	8:35pm loveless: @ultradamno Those are actually voters with mostly horrible opinions. Yikes.
	8:36pm BH: "In an interview for Playgirl, Lynn recounted how she had been congratulated after the song's success by a number of rural physicians, telling her how "The Pill" had done more to highlight the availability of birth control in isolated, rural areas, than all the literature they'd released"
	8:37pm dano59: MC5 was like a first-Gen rockcrit legacy; had to be inducted eventually. I thought since Rush got in the whining would subside. But nooooo
	8:38pm AnotherJon: That song rules. Awesome show! Good Job!
	8:39pm dano59: Keening strings. Love it
	8:40pm ultradamno: It's kind of funny he throws out The Stooges as an example of a better MI band. I would agree, mildly, but common wisdom was by far the opposite for a long time.
	👻 8:43pm Destroit: I vote Stooges. But then again im watching hockey so wtf do i know haha
	👻 8:43pm Handy Haversack: Ha, Destroit!
	8:44pm ultradamno: Nate The K was skronky tonk! twitter.com...
	8:44pm P-90: HERSELF
	8:44pm Harry Corvair: Oh help yes! Great show tonight.
	8:44pm dano59: Oh God yes
	8:44pm BH: put this track on the Dolly R&R album. 1 down, 11 to go? (or however long albums are now)
	8:44pm Andres: 👍👏❤️
	8:45pm Dean from Old Bridge: Dolly ♥️
	8:46pm johnk77: great show selecter regarding stooges bill kirchen was at their first show he was not impressed
	8:46pm ultradamno: I'm hoping she does covers in this style of Uncontrollable Urge, Jet Boy and Kick Out The Jams!
	8:46pm kwatts: Smiles
	8:48pm Robm: Hello fellow honky tonk listeners Glad dolly made the HOF When will they induct suzi quatro
	8:48pm BH: someone at the R&RHOF ceremonies might be thinking of the right way to pitch getting a bunch of their 2022 inductees to perform "Sisters are doin it for themselves" (well, you have Annie Lennox and Dolly and Carly Simon and Pat Benetar in this class)
	8:49pm Robm: Glad that pat benatar made it too
	8:50pm ultradamno: If there's snobbery to NY Dolls, the amount for flat out glam with no "punk trinity" cache about it must be staggering.
	👻 8:52pm Handy Haversack: Many thanks for a great show, Becky! It's full of (clicky-)stars! Keep on Tonkin', everyone!
	8:53pm Becky: Thanks, Handy and all!
	8:55pm Dean from Old Bridge: Goodnight Becky, thanks for the tunes!
	👻 8:55pm Destroit: Thanks Becky, thanks gang of commenters!
	8:56pm P-90: Thanks Miz Becky!
	8:56pm Robm: As usual destroit the accu has been steller
	👻 8:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Becky. Do the HoF inductees get to do neat stuff like drive a firetruck around or given a hotel room to trash? If not, then what's the point? Haha.
	8:58pm spodiodi: thanks, Becky!
	8:58pm ultradamno: I think she's trying to throw him off asking about who she was with while out of town. Trust no one.
	9:00pm ultradamno: I think they get to be on the HBO special, is about it.
