	9:15am Brendan: Featuring new patented “vocal free first set” technology.
	♥ 9:16am Joe McG: Ah, technology!
	♥ 9:16am karlward: Yes!
	♥ 9:16am LastWhiteRhino: That just harshed my mellow :(
	9:16am HyperDose: This remix is the ill bomb diggity!
	♥ 9:17am karlward: Put a delay on that and you have an instant classic
	♥ 9:17am Andrew Waterloo: this doesn't seem to be an intended part of the production.
	♥ 9:17am Joe McG: Got stuck!
	♥ 9:17am Son Of Pantz: My fillings are vibrating
	9:17am Windy City: Was that intended ?
	♥ 9:18am Joe McG: @Windy: Not by me or the artist. :)
	9:18am Gerry from Miami: A little Philip Glass-like nterlude, Joe? At first I thought it was a defective record. Not so, I guess.
	♥ 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Joe and Yip Yip membership!
	9:19am HyperDose: It's like an emergency alert system for DJs. Skip the song to make sure your audience is awake. Clever!
	9:19am Brendan: New & improved with the repeating pulsating vibrational frequency stimulator! Only available in the CD version.
	9:19am Pax: LWRhino: hope you don't mind, but I feel inspired to tweak your comment to this. Pleasant valley Monday, greetings to Cool Joe and the Gang. Not too shabby for a Monday morning, Methinks.
	♥ 9:20am Joe McG: I dropped my CD-R and it got scratched.
	9:21am Gerry from Miami: Everything dated 2022 so far. New Music Monday?
	♥ 9:21am The Oscar: Good morning! I glanced at the playlist and momentarily thought that Joe had opened today's show with Dokken.
	9:22am TDK60: Ah, recall the hypsters back in '89 tellin' us those new-fangled compact discs would never skip? What? You forgot?
	♥ 9:22am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Joe! Sounds like non-threatenimg synth music this set!
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: I dropped my 45s earlier, too, so I hope they don't skip. :)
	♥ 9:23am Bernardo: Joe I had a nasty case of the mondays today, but you’re wiping it away with this first set. Thank you! 🙏
	♥ 9:24am Joe McG: @Bernardo: Glad to hear it! I think I'm going to play a couple of encouraging songs at the end of this set to get us all ready for the rest of the day.
	♥ 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Hello Joe McG and friends! Hope everyone had a good weekend!
	♥ 9:27am karlward: TDK60: I recently found some CDs in my basement where the metal film inside the plastic was totally destroyed, but the exterior was fine. Technically, these CDs don't skip. They don't play, but also, they don't skip.
	♥ 9:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @karlward: I have a CD by Marc Ribot (Rootless Cosmopolitans) and you can hold it up to the light and see tons of holes in the metal. Completely flips out the CD player.
	♥ 9:29am DjLorraine: I'm shy one yip but i hear gravity is still a thing here.
	9:30am Cory: Is it skipping, or is it music? WFMU 91.1
	♥ 9:30am Mark Hurst: Hi Joe! Great set.
	♥ 9:31am Krys O.: Metal layer oxidation happens.
	♥ 9:31am Joe McG: Heya, Mark! :)
	♥ 9:32am Andrew Waterloo: Radio or equipment failure..
	9:33am TDK60: Thanks for that, Karlward. My fancy stereo component CD player often won't play a CD, then I try a cheap "boombox" player and they usually work.
	♥ 9:33am Krys O.: We used to deal with claims of "laser rot" when I worked at a laserdisc distributor in the 90s. The manufacturers actually tried to say it couldn't happen. Disc rot definitely happens.
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: I have an Yma Sumac CD that has turned a kind of rusty gold color. Still plays, though.
	9:35am Pax: It could have been worse. I'm certain i dropped my sanity 45 years ago, and I've been skipping ever since. :-P. Joe@9:22
	♥ 9:37am karlward: Joe McG: so what you're saying is your Sumac CD turned sumac color
	♥ 9:38am Joe McG: @karl: It was meant to be!
	♥ 9:38am Mr_Skynet: Morning! This is nice :)
	♥ 9:38am Joe McG: @Pax: Ha!
	9:38am HyperDose: The original Sony Playstation 2 units had problems with the lasers. PS One discs were black, early PS2 discs were a blue/violet, and original DVDs were gold. After a few years the lasers wore out and could only read silver colored discs (later DVDs and games).
	♥ 9:39am LastWhiteRhino: And we all lived happily "Everly Brothers" after.
	♥ 9:39am Mike Sin: JoeMcG picking one of the great later Everly Bros tracks to play! Noice!
	♥ 9:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everything on 78 RPM shellacs or it's gone.
	♥ 9:40am Joe McG: @Mike: Wot, me worry? :)
	♥ 9:40am Ken From Hyde Park: I remember one of the witty greetings when the main site looked like this freeform.wfmu.org Something like "35% of what we play cannot legally be described as music."
	9:40am Brendan: Now, that’s the way to ease into some vocals! I was going to joke that you could slip in some David Lee Roth or Ethel Merman during one of your no vocal first sets, but that would be cruel.
	♥ 9:41am karlward: Back when I was a teenager I called my CD collection "My Life's Work." I hope I've done more important things since. But I wonder what 18 year old me would think watching present day me chuckle at two destroyed CDs as I toss them in the garbage.
	♥ 9:41am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Boy, that descending keyboard riff is reminding me of something else.....uh...
	♥ 9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am the lovechild of DavidLeeRoth & EthelMerman.
	9:41am Gerry from Miami: So lovely, Don and Phil! And the guitar sounds like Mark Knopfler.
	♥ 9:42am karlward: Goddamn it Willie's still got it
	♥ 9:42am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Gerry from Miami: That's it! A Dire Straits song I can't put my finger on...
	♥ 9:43am yerfriendpaul: Willie knows of what he speaks! Hey Joe, everyone!
	9:46am Pax: there's some kind of clear coating on CDs to help prevent scratching. It seems to me that same coating would at least greatly help prevent oxidation and rotting of the metal?
	♥ 9:46am JG: Willie w/ a late career classic. Amazing
	9:47am ChukAmok: Good morning greetings from Chuk Amøk's Covid Castle, Joe McGasko and all the McGaskettes.
	♥ 9:48am karlward: ChukAmok: oh no!
	♥ 9:48am Webhamster Henry: I understand "The Fuzzy Glove Hour" is available.
	♥ 9:48am McGroovey: You could change it to Joe Belock. But that would probably be confusing.
	9:48am chresti @coffee: Morning Joe and surfies!
	♥ 9:49am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): At least they didn't do a hologram concert.
	9:49am ChukAmok: "Oh no" is right, karlward. This has been awful. Glad I'm well enough now to be tuned in to something without passing out though.
	9:51am Gerry from Miami: JOE, "metonymy" is what you are referring to. Like "suit" for a business exec or ""the track" for a horse racing venue.
	9:54am Gerry from Miami: Speaking of Joe Belock, he is hosting John Doe from X on his show starting at noon today
	♥ 9:56am Handy Haversack: Crap, ChukAmok! Very sorry to hear it.
	♥ 9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <+> WELLNESS <+> ChuckAmok & Everybody
	♥ 9:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hm. Meto probly like in metamorphosis - meaning Changing... & Nym like Name...
	10:00am HyperDose: Sorry to hear, Chuk
	♥ 10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1st thing I've heard with LindaLindas influence ?
	10:01am ChukAmok: I know you've been here before, Handy. Thanks, RevRab & HyperD.
	♥ 10:02am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @ChukAmok: So sorry to hear this. I raise my cup of (not) chicken broth to you.
	10:03am Lixiviated Life: Kate T ❤️
	10:04am Lixiviated Life: … but Joseph, why so serious?
	♥ 10:04am Bernardo: Oh man I saw Kate Tempest live at Elsewhere couple years back….mind blowing.
	♥ 10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: My goodness what a fine Program this is.
	♥ 10:05am Joe McG: @LixiLife: I am a panorama of emotions. :)
	10:06am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Kae is soothing...
	♥ 10:06am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Joe contains multitudes and scratchy 45's.
	♥ 10:07am Joe McG: Aloha, Holland!
	♥ 10:07am Little Danny: hello Joe hello all
	10:08am Hi from Holland: 👋
	10:08am ChukAmok: Appreciated, WoodsofNH!
	10:08am Lixiviated Life: “I am large I contain multitudes.” Walt Whitman
	♥ 10:09am Mr_Skynet: Joe you never disappoint!
	10:10am ChukAmok: Of his many quotables, that is one of my very favorites Lix Life.
	♥ 10:10am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Dang it, that Kae Tempest isn't on Bandcamp.
	♥ 10:10am DjLorraine: ChukAmok sorry to hear.., but sincerely glad you are alive
	♥ 10:10am Joe McG: Why, thank ye, Skynet! It's cheating since I'm mostly trying to please meself. :)
	10:11am wenzo toad (it/it’s): Mornin’ all
	♥ 10:11am Son Of Pantz: Imagine being told you're 'redundant'. How debasing.
	10:12am morphe': Yes John Doe on Joey B's show with a new folk sound ... have not yet heard any of it...
	10:12am ChukAmok: Thanks DjLorraine! And thank goodness for vaccines!
	♥ 10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always 'liked' the British phrase 'surplus to requirements'...
	♥ 10:16am McGroovey: John Doe's solo show in Monty Hall (way back in the Before Time) was excellent.
	10:16am Pax: My status was never once of an executive position where I had to dress metonymy and host a group of businessmen at a horse racing track where it's metonymy venue was entertaining. Gerry fM@9:51, was that sentence grammatically correct using the word metonymy?
	♥ 10:17am Son Of Pantz: John Otway had the wildest performance in "Urgh! A Music War" I was mesmerized as a kid.
	♥ 10:18am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Me ears hear some Pete Townshend in there
	♥ 10:19am Handy Haversack: I love this set.
	♥ 10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah as a Whofan love the 'Substitute' allusion (shall call it).
	♥ 10:19am Joe McG: @Woods: Yup, he produced it and plays guitar on it.
	10:19am ChukAmok: It was produced by Townshend, Woods.
	♥ 10:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ah...thanks!
	♥ 10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then he may Allude as he sees fit !...
	10:20am morphe': TDK60: Ah, recall the hypsters back in '89 tellin' us those new-fangled compact discs would never skip? What? You forgot? "" In an early novel =late '50s early '60s.. Philip Dick wrote about people walking around with mini phonographs strapped to their belts .. cannot remember which novel??? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/117084.The_Dreams_Our_Stuff_is_Made_Of ps for later ...John Oliver's last night show focused on Tech monopolies ... not sure how to see it outside of Youtube ...
	♥ 10:20am Mark Hurst: @Handy me too. Also the set before this one. And the sets on previous Surface Noise shows, going back into the misty past..
	♥ 10:21am Mark Hurst: @morphe' I need to watch that John Oliver bit. The topic is one I've been meaning to get around to...
	10:22am JX: Jona Lewie.....Jona Lewie...Jona......
	10:24am TDK60: Morphe, tho I am biased, folks would be havin' hissy fits if we'd stuck with tapes...
	♥ 10:25am captain beef fart: Anyone else remember the highlighter trick to "fix" scratched CDs? I would draw lines away from the center of the CD w/ a highlighter then wipe away from center. It worked but would have to be done over every so often. Unsure if it mattered that it was a highlighter or if it was simply cleaning the CD.
	♥ 10:26am Webhamster Henry: Sprechstimme!
	♥ 10:27am Webhamster Henry: Remember the magic markers that were supposed to improve (digital) CD sound by inking the edge of it? People are such boobs.
	10:28am Gerry from Miami: Joe, the technique you refer to is called "sprechstimme," or "talk singing."
	10:29am morphe': TDK - the shift from 8 track Ka-Chunk to cassettes was revolutionary .... There is an 8-Track meet-up that includes FMU folk... Mark - was going to send ya an email so glad you saw that..
	♥ 10:29am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Mark Hurst: Do you read Ted Gioia's substack? He published one yesterday titled "These 20 Startups want to Control the Future of Music." I haven't gotten to it yet but I bet it's depressing.
	10:30am Pax: Remember those big ass 12-in laser disc that were precursors to the CD/DvD disc. Never knew anyone that had those.
	♥ 10:31am Joe McG: Thanks, guys, for the German "talk singing" term.
	♥ 10:32am courtneynoir: A friend of mine's dad had a ton of laser discs. And I actually am in possession of the Wild At Heart laser disc that was gifted to me because the person gifting it to me thought they'd bought me the soundtrack on vinyl!
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am listener 126464: Hi Joe, always great to hear some John Otway and WWB.
	♥ 10:33am Joe McG: @126464: I feel like I could play Otway every week!
	♥ 10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a track is 'Sally'.
	♥ 10:34am Handy Haversack: Hey, Mark Hurst!
	10:35am ChukAmok: I love the Holly Golightly version of this too.
	♥ 10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Produced by a Spector - but not Phil !...
	10:36am Gerry from Miami: British group Pentangle had a pretty good version of "Sally, Go 'Round the Roses" too.
	10:37am Pax: Poor Phil Spector, he literally look like the crypt keeper before his ultimate demise.
	♥ 10:39am nathan: @captain beef fart, the scratched CD "fix" i remember involved smearing on and then wiping away toothpaste. I can't remember how effective it was... probably not very
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: There's only one living Monkee on my Monkees picture sleeve! :(
	♥ 10:42am chresti: Hi again from the tennis booth in Griffith Park!
	♥ 10:43am Joe McG: Any good matches today, chresti?
	♥ 10:43am Stevel: Pretty hard to top the original Stepping Stone, although I love the numerous covers, including this by SOA on the Flex Your Head comp. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:44am Mark Hurst: @WoodsofNH will take a look, thanks
	♥ 10:46am Jason from Houston: Gooooood morning!
	10:46am morphe': Footie: Choose league: Monday 13 June 2022 17:00 Azerbaijan Belarus 19:45 Denmark Austria 19:45 France Croatia 19:45 Iceland Israel Nations League Tuesday 14 June 2022 17:00 Armenia Scotland 17:00 Moldova Andorra 19:45 Bosnia-Herzegovina Finland 19:45 England Hungary 19:45 Germany Italy 19:45 The Netherlands Wales 19:45 Liechtenstein Latvia 19:45 Luxembourg Faroe Islands 19:45 Poland Belgium 19:45 Romania Montenegro 19:45 Turkey Lithuania 19:45 Ukraine Rep of Ireland Nations League Wednesday 6 July 2022 20:00 England Women Austria Women
	10:46am Pax: Every garage band of the 70ty's always played "I'm not your stepping stone" as only one of five songs they knew,?
	10:46am ChukAmok: The SOA version is great, but Minor Threat did the best cover of Steppin' Stone, hands down.
	♥ 10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BubblePuppy 45 in the house in my toddlerhood. Taking in the Austin Psych from the start !...
	♥ 10:49am yerfriendpaul: Sasafrass is a word that needs more usage!
	♥ 10:49am Jessie: The members of Bubble Puppy were stoned while watching the Beverly Hillbillies. Granny was asked what was for dinner and she said Hot Smoke and Sasafrass. And that is where the band got the name for the song.
	♥ 10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...cept they were SanAntonio - but signed to IA like the Elevators...
	10:50am Gerry from Miami: Bubble Puppy on the same label as Roky Erickson and the 13th Floor Elevators. Texas psychedelia for sure!
	♥ 10:51am Webhamster Henry: I'm simul-listening to the Jan 6 committee report.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Jessie: Great story!
	♥ 10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Episode of the Hillbillies Jethro tells the L.A. freaks he's gonna smoke some crawdads ...'That's too weird even for me!'...
	10:52am TDK60: Gracias, Joe. Off to watch the Jan. 6 committee.
	10:54am morphe': TDK ... doing a mix/mash uo = JMcG and WNYC/hearing ... kind of works...
	♥ 10:54am chresti: Joe, not that I know of, mostly local tennis nuts.
	10:55am Choggie: Hiya Joe, sent you an email requesting a 🌮, please, when you have time.
	♥ 10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I don't wanna jump to wild conclusions - but I'm this close to thinking the DrumpfSupporters were listening to Drumpf.
	♥ 10:57am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	♥ 10:57am McGroovey: The only Eric Carmen solo record I have is Boats Against The Current, which I got from a cutout bin for 50¢ in the eighties. I've listened to it once or twice, but never loved it. I love Eric Carmen's good stuff, and I want to love this album, but I can't. I've never heard his first solo album. The soft rock hits on it aren't songs I ever want to listen to on purpose. But No Hard Feelings sounds like the Raspberries. The album might be worth $1 just for that song
	10:59am kevlicki: Mark Hudst- I was just composing an email to you. Wanted to share an irritating pop tune with topically relevant content to you “I don’t care about your crypto boy” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0amWsMfR2Ok
	♥ 11:00am fred: I just 26 tickets for dance shows. Second batch, 2 more to go. It's stressful because I have 30 minutes to pick shows and seats, while keeping an eye on the other venues' schedules
	♥ 11:01am Mark Hurst: @kevlicki yes good one. "irritating" is right
	♥ 11:04am fred: @Mark Hurst: The European Commission is funding a research project about the use of NFT for contemporary music. They can use the money, but WTF?
	♥ 11:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: fred - so obtaining tickets for Art Dance is a competition ?
	♥ 11:08am fred: @RevRab: it is, they go fast. I took a day off from work to jump as soon as booking opened, only to waste time before figuring out the French language page was the place to be
	♥ 11:08am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Elvis and Robbie!
	♥ 11:09am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I can't wait for my swag because I can't even remember what I signed up for. It'll be Christmas in June. Or July. Or August!!
	11:10am ChukAmok: Elvis is in the building?
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I love John Doe's solo records.
	11:11am Joe B: john doe at monty hall was 2017!
	♥ 11:12am Handy Haversack: Some more LIC block party info: queenspost.com...
	♥ 11:12am McGroovey: Also on Thursday night, on this side of the rivers: Yung Wu, The Schramms, Glenn Morrow in Sinatra Park in Hoboken.
	♥ 11:13am Mark Hurst: @fred ugh
	11:13am Joe B: thanks for the plug!
	11:14am Joe B: wow thursday is jam packed - also Mccartney at Giants Stadium
	♥ 11:14am McGroovey: 7:00 pm
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JohnDoe always seemed righteous. Glad to hear he is in person ...especially since Exene reportedly spouts RightWing & Conspiracy sewage now. Tho I thot X's latest album great.
	♥ 11:15am Son Of Pantz: Yeeeeee-haw!
	11:15am P-90: the exquisite pain of playing cassettes on the radio
	11:16am Pax: RRN63@10:51 - I remembered that one, and the hippies asked him which end do you draw from. Ever since then I had this silly ridiculous image in my mind of a bunch of scraggly dopey looking hippies standing around constantly lighting crawdads as they implode a lung try to inhale them.
	11:16am Andres: Good morning, Joe and all! Digging the show. The coffee has finally kicked in on Ruby!
	♥ 11:16am Jason from Houston: Dang. That's fast.
	♥ 11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pax & I'm presuming this was a bit before the word 'Hippie' had even completely landed.
	11:18am Mister Dobalina: This is hittin' the spot!
	♥ 11:19am Son Of Pantz: I'm fixin' to clog right quick.
	♥ 11:22am Rich in Washington: I got my swag over the weekend. I feel like my life is complete. For the moment.
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: @Rich: Great news! Hopefully more swag will be reaching more people over the next couple of weeks.
	11:27am Pax: RRN63: hmm, good question. If it was from one of the earlier black and white episodes, then they would be beatniks. But if it was from one of the later colored episodes then it would be hippies for sure.
	♥ 11:27am Handy Haversack: Happy SWAGVENT, Rich!
	♥ 11:28am fred: @Mark Hurst. On a positive side, I got an extra techtonic T-shirt as a gift for a coworker last year, and he loved it (the facebook/apple/amazon/google one). He said he wore it a lot back in Germany
	♥ 11:28am Son Of Pantz: Have you heard of Freakwater, Joe?
	♥ 11:30am Joe McG: @Pantz: Sure! Have a favorite?
	♥ 11:30am Son Of Pantz: "My Old Drunk Friend"
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: Another fantastic set. Mark Hurst was right! Again!
	♥ 11:32am Joe McG: Second tech gaff of the morning! I'm on fine form today, I think you'll agree.
	11:34am Lixiviated Life: @Handy have a sock He’s often right Maybe too often. Sometimes I wonder if Mark Hurst is really a double agent working for our future robot overlordship? 🤖
	11:35am Hubig Pie: I was all 'damn this is beautiful, then dammit !, then aw there it is'
	♥ 11:35am fred: Hey Joe, it's how we know it's real! Honest, my favorite dance memory is seeing my favorite dancer slip and recover so fast nobody noticed (I only did because I was so focused on her)
	♥ 11:35am Son Of Pantz: Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:36am McGroovey: Does anyone have a music schedule for the Coury Square Block Party? I'd like to catch $75 Bill and Tape Hiss, but I can't be there for 7 hours. Maybe Joe said on air when they're playing? I wasn't listening closely. tappedin.live...
	11:37am Brendan: Nice call, Pantz.
	11:37am Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Joe!
	11:40am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I LOVE 75 dollar bill.
	♥ 11:40am fred: I love this dancer so much I would go see the same show twice, the first to see the show, the second to just watch her
	11:41am TimBk: Does this sound like Denver's Rocky Mountain High to anyone else?
	♥ 11:41am Handy Haversack: Nothing on the event page, McGroove. Maybe Pete will pop up and have some info. www.eventbrite.com...
	11:42am Hubig Pie: This be a John Denver song ?
	♥ 11:43am Joe McG: @Hubig: Yeppers!
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Greets all. Super tardy to the party today; still have a bit of a lingering cough and other annoyances from the "Rona, still, glad to be here this AM....
	♥ 11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah. JohnDenver did cross my mind.
	♥ 11:44am fred: Eleanor Rigby? That rings a bell, as if someone played a few covers someday
	♥ 11:45am nortonjutland: way to go Joe! playing all the right tunes. thanks.
	♥ 11:45am Joe McG: @fred: Heh heh ;)
	11:46am Mister Dobalina: ⒷⓄⓃⒹⓄ
	11:46am Brendan: So many lonely people, and only 15 minutes left. We caught a break.
	11:47am Rich in Bristol: I've never liked Eleanor Rigby, but I FREKAING LOVE this version!
	♥ 11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's Modal. Don'chaknow.

	11:51am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: So it turns out Pabst Blue Ribbon is ok for cheap beer I found out. My last Budweiser was like 40 years ago, so I don't remember if it sucks or not. I think it does, though.
	♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & I'm sometimes annoyed by mandolin. But this gets a pass. WildNeil - ya gotta leave the teabag of weak hops in each vat of ricewater exactly the right duration...
	11:54am Dean: Check out The Waybacks' cover of Floyd Cramer's "Last Date." Mandolin solo is pretty tasty.

	11:56am zopa: Bluegrass McGasko is my favorite McGasko
	♥ 11:56am Brian in UK: Thanks Joe. Last Thing on my Mind?

	♥ 9:16am Joe McG: Ah, technology!
	♥ 9:16am karlward: Yes!
	♥ 9:16am LastWhiteRhino: That just harshed my mellow :(
	9:16am HyperDose: This remix is the ill bomb diggity!
	♥ 9:17am karlward: Put a delay on that and you have an instant classic
	♥ 9:17am Andrew Waterloo: this doesn't seem to be an intended part of the production.
	♥ 9:17am Joe McG: Got stuck!
	♥ 9:17am Son Of Pantz: My fillings are vibrating
	9:17am Windy City: Was that intended ?
	♥ 9:18am Joe McG: @Windy: Not by me or the artist. :)
	9:18am Gerry from Miami: A little Philip Glass-like nterlude, Joe? At first I thought it was a defective record. Not so, I guess.
	♥ 9:19am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Joe and Yip Yip membership!
	9:19am HyperDose: It's like an emergency alert system for DJs. Skip the song to make sure your audience is awake. Clever!
	9:19am Brendan: New & improved with the repeating pulsating vibrational frequency stimulator! Only available in the CD version.
	9:19am Pax: LWRhino: hope you don't mind, but I feel inspired to tweak your comment to this. Pleasant valley Monday, greetings to Cool Joe and the Gang. Not too shabby for a Monday morning, Methinks.

	9:21am Gerry from Miami: Everything dated 2022 so far. New Music Monday?
	♥ 9:21am The Oscar: Good morning! I glanced at the playlist and momentarily thought that Joe had opened today's show with Dokken.
	9:22am TDK60: Ah, recall the hypsters back in '89 tellin' us those new-fangled compact discs would never skip? What? You forgot?
	♥ 9:22am Webhamster Henry: Good morning Joe! Sounds like non-threatenimg synth music this set!
	♥ 9:22am Joe McG: I dropped my 45s earlier, too, so I hope they don't skip. :)
	♥ 9:23am Bernardo: Joe I had a nasty case of the mondays today, but you’re wiping it away with this first set. Thank you! 🙏
	♥ 9:24am Joe McG: @Bernardo: Glad to hear it! I think I'm going to play a couple of encouraging songs at the end of this set to get us all ready for the rest of the day.
	♥ 9:26am Marley P. Dogg: Hello Joe McG and friends! Hope everyone had a good weekend!
	♥ 9:27am karlward: TDK60: I recently found some CDs in my basement where the metal film inside the plastic was totally destroyed, but the exterior was fine. Technically, these CDs don't skip. They don't play, but also, they don't skip.
	♥ 9:28am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @karlward: I have a CD by Marc Ribot (Rootless Cosmopolitans) and you can hold it up to the light and see tons of holes in the metal. Completely flips out the CD player.
	♥ 9:29am DjLorraine: I'm shy one yip but i hear gravity is still a thing here.
	9:30am Cory: Is it skipping, or is it music? WFMU 91.1
	♥ 9:30am Mark Hurst: Hi Joe! Great set.
	♥ 9:31am Krys O.: Metal layer oxidation happens.
	♥ 9:31am Joe McG: Heya, Mark! :)
	♥ 9:32am Andrew Waterloo: Radio or equipment failure..
	9:33am TDK60: Thanks for that, Karlward. My fancy stereo component CD player often won't play a CD, then I try a cheap "boombox" player and they usually work.
	♥ 9:33am Krys O.: We used to deal with claims of "laser rot" when I worked at a laserdisc distributor in the 90s. The manufacturers actually tried to say it couldn't happen. Disc rot definitely happens.
	♥ 9:35am Joe McG: I have an Yma Sumac CD that has turned a kind of rusty gold color. Still plays, though.
	9:35am Pax: It could have been worse. I'm certain i dropped my sanity 45 years ago, and I've been skipping ever since. :-P. Joe@9:22
	♥ 9:37am karlward: Joe McG: so what you're saying is your Sumac CD turned sumac color
	♥ 9:38am Joe McG: @karl: It was meant to be!
	♥ 9:38am Mr_Skynet: Morning! This is nice :)
	♥ 9:38am Joe McG: @Pax: Ha!
	9:38am HyperDose: The original Sony Playstation 2 units had problems with the lasers. PS One discs were black, early PS2 discs were a blue/violet, and original DVDs were gold. After a few years the lasers wore out and could only read silver colored discs (later DVDs and games).
	♥ 9:39am LastWhiteRhino: And we all lived happily "Everly Brothers" after.
	♥ 9:39am Mike Sin: JoeMcG picking one of the great later Everly Bros tracks to play! Noice!
	♥ 9:39am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everything on 78 RPM shellacs or it's gone.
	♥ 9:40am Joe McG: @Mike: Wot, me worry? :)
	♥ 9:40am Ken From Hyde Park: I remember one of the witty greetings when the main site looked like this freeform.wfmu.org Something like "35% of what we play cannot legally be described as music."
	9:40am Brendan: Now, that’s the way to ease into some vocals! I was going to joke that you could slip in some David Lee Roth or Ethel Merman during one of your no vocal first sets, but that would be cruel.
	♥ 9:41am karlward: Back when I was a teenager I called my CD collection "My Life's Work." I hope I've done more important things since. But I wonder what 18 year old me would think watching present day me chuckle at two destroyed CDs as I toss them in the garbage.
	♥ 9:41am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Boy, that descending keyboard riff is reminding me of something else.....uh...
	♥ 9:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I am the lovechild of DavidLeeRoth & EthelMerman.
	9:41am Gerry from Miami: So lovely, Don and Phil! And the guitar sounds like Mark Knopfler.
	♥ 9:42am karlward: Goddamn it Willie's still got it
	♥ 9:42am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Gerry from Miami: That's it! A Dire Straits song I can't put my finger on...
	♥ 9:43am yerfriendpaul: Willie knows of what he speaks! Hey Joe, everyone!
	9:46am Pax: there's some kind of clear coating on CDs to help prevent scratching. It seems to me that same coating would at least greatly help prevent oxidation and rotting of the metal?
	♥ 9:46am JG: Willie w/ a late career classic. Amazing
	9:47am ChukAmok: Good morning greetings from Chuk Amøk's Covid Castle, Joe McGasko and all the McGaskettes.
	♥ 9:48am karlward: ChukAmok: oh no!
	♥ 9:48am Webhamster Henry: I understand "The Fuzzy Glove Hour" is available.
	♥ 9:48am McGroovey: You could change it to Joe Belock. But that would probably be confusing.
	9:48am chresti @coffee: Morning Joe and surfies!
	♥ 9:49am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): At least they didn't do a hologram concert.
	9:49am ChukAmok: "Oh no" is right, karlward. This has been awful. Glad I'm well enough now to be tuned in to something without passing out though.
	9:51am Gerry from Miami: JOE, "metonymy" is what you are referring to. Like "suit" for a business exec or ""the track" for a horse racing venue.
	9:54am Gerry from Miami: Speaking of Joe Belock, he is hosting John Doe from X on his show starting at noon today
	♥ 9:56am Handy Haversack: Crap, ChukAmok! Very sorry to hear it.
	♥ 9:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <+> WELLNESS <+> ChuckAmok & Everybody
	♥ 9:59am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hm. Meto probly like in metamorphosis - meaning Changing... & Nym like Name...
	10:00am HyperDose: Sorry to hear, Chuk
	♥ 10:00am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 1st thing I've heard with LindaLindas influence ?
	10:01am ChukAmok: I know you've been here before, Handy. Thanks, RevRab & HyperD.
	♥ 10:02am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @ChukAmok: So sorry to hear this. I raise my cup of (not) chicken broth to you.
	10:03am Lixiviated Life: Kate T ❤️
	10:04am Lixiviated Life: … but Joseph, why so serious?
	♥ 10:04am Bernardo: Oh man I saw Kate Tempest live at Elsewhere couple years back….mind blowing.
	♥ 10:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: My goodness what a fine Program this is.
	♥ 10:05am Joe McG: @LixiLife: I am a panorama of emotions. :)
	10:06am Hi from Holland: Aloha! Kae is soothing...
	♥ 10:06am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Joe contains multitudes and scratchy 45's.
	♥ 10:07am Joe McG: Aloha, Holland!
	♥ 10:07am Little Danny: hello Joe hello all
	10:08am Hi from Holland: 👋
	10:08am ChukAmok: Appreciated, WoodsofNH!
	10:08am Lixiviated Life: “I am large I contain multitudes.” Walt Whitman
	♥ 10:09am Mr_Skynet: Joe you never disappoint!
	10:10am ChukAmok: Of his many quotables, that is one of my very favorites Lix Life.
	♥ 10:10am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Dang it, that Kae Tempest isn't on Bandcamp.
	♥ 10:10am DjLorraine: ChukAmok sorry to hear.., but sincerely glad you are alive
	♥ 10:10am Joe McG: Why, thank ye, Skynet! It's cheating since I'm mostly trying to please meself. :)
	10:11am wenzo toad (it/it’s): Mornin’ all
	♥ 10:11am Son Of Pantz: Imagine being told you're 'redundant'. How debasing.
	10:12am morphe': Yes John Doe on Joey B's show with a new folk sound ... have not yet heard any of it...
	10:12am ChukAmok: Thanks DjLorraine! And thank goodness for vaccines!
	♥ 10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Always 'liked' the British phrase 'surplus to requirements'...
	♥ 10:16am McGroovey: John Doe's solo show in Monty Hall (way back in the Before Time) was excellent.
	10:16am Pax: My status was never once of an executive position where I had to dress metonymy and host a group of businessmen at a horse racing track where it's metonymy venue was entertaining. Gerry fM@9:51, was that sentence grammatically correct using the word metonymy?
	♥ 10:17am Son Of Pantz: John Otway had the wildest performance in "Urgh! A Music War" I was mesmerized as a kid.
	♥ 10:18am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Me ears hear some Pete Townshend in there
	♥ 10:19am Handy Haversack: I love this set.
	♥ 10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah as a Whofan love the 'Substitute' allusion (shall call it).
	♥ 10:19am Joe McG: @Woods: Yup, he produced it and plays guitar on it.
	10:19am ChukAmok: It was produced by Townshend, Woods.
	♥ 10:20am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Ah...thanks!
	♥ 10:20am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then he may Allude as he sees fit !...
	10:20am morphe': TDK60: Ah, recall the hypsters back in '89 tellin' us those new-fangled compact discs would never skip? What? You forgot? "" In an early novel =late '50s early '60s.. Philip Dick wrote about people walking around with mini phonographs strapped to their belts .. cannot remember which novel??? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/117084.The_Dreams_Our_Stuff_is_Made_Of ps for later ...John Oliver's last night show focused on Tech monopolies ... not sure how to see it outside of Youtube ...
	♥ 10:20am Mark Hurst: @Handy me too. Also the set before this one. And the sets on previous Surface Noise shows, going back into the misty past..
	♥ 10:21am Mark Hurst: @morphe' I need to watch that John Oliver bit. The topic is one I've been meaning to get around to...
	10:22am JX: Jona Lewie.....Jona Lewie...Jona......
	10:24am TDK60: Morphe, tho I am biased, folks would be havin' hissy fits if we'd stuck with tapes...
	♥ 10:25am captain beef fart: Anyone else remember the highlighter trick to "fix" scratched CDs? I would draw lines away from the center of the CD w/ a highlighter then wipe away from center. It worked but would have to be done over every so often. Unsure if it mattered that it was a highlighter or if it was simply cleaning the CD.
	♥ 10:26am Webhamster Henry: Sprechstimme!
	♥ 10:27am Webhamster Henry: Remember the magic markers that were supposed to improve (digital) CD sound by inking the edge of it? People are such boobs.
	10:28am Gerry from Miami: Joe, the technique you refer to is called "sprechstimme," or "talk singing."
	10:29am morphe': TDK - the shift from 8 track Ka-Chunk to cassettes was revolutionary .... There is an 8-Track meet-up that includes FMU folk... Mark - was going to send ya an email so glad you saw that..
	♥ 10:29am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Mark Hurst: Do you read Ted Gioia's substack? He published one yesterday titled "These 20 Startups want to Control the Future of Music." I haven't gotten to it yet but I bet it's depressing.
	10:30am Pax: Remember those big ass 12-in laser disc that were precursors to the CD/DvD disc. Never knew anyone that had those.
	♥ 10:31am Joe McG: Thanks, guys, for the German "talk singing" term.
	♥ 10:32am courtneynoir: A friend of mine's dad had a ton of laser discs. And I actually am in possession of the Wild At Heart laser disc that was gifted to me because the person gifting it to me thought they'd bought me the soundtrack on vinyl!
	🎸 ♥ 10:33am listener 126464: Hi Joe, always great to hear some John Otway and WWB.
	♥ 10:33am Joe McG: @126464: I feel like I could play Otway every week!
	♥ 10:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a track is 'Sally'.
	♥ 10:34am Handy Haversack: Hey, Mark Hurst!
	10:35am ChukAmok: I love the Holly Golightly version of this too.
	♥ 10:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Produced by a Spector - but not Phil !...
	10:36am Gerry from Miami: British group Pentangle had a pretty good version of "Sally, Go 'Round the Roses" too.
	10:37am Pax: Poor Phil Spector, he literally look like the crypt keeper before his ultimate demise.
	♥ 10:39am nathan: @captain beef fart, the scratched CD "fix" i remember involved smearing on and then wiping away toothpaste. I can't remember how effective it was... probably not very
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: There's only one living Monkee on my Monkees picture sleeve! :(
	♥ 10:42am chresti: Hi again from the tennis booth in Griffith Park!
	♥ 10:43am Joe McG: Any good matches today, chresti?
	♥ 10:43am Stevel: Pretty hard to top the original Stepping Stone, although I love the numerous covers, including this by SOA on the Flex Your Head comp. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 10:44am Mark Hurst: @WoodsofNH will take a look, thanks
	♥ 10:46am Jason from Houston: Gooooood morning!

	10:46am Pax: Every garage band of the 70ty's always played "I'm not your stepping stone" as only one of five songs they knew,?
	10:46am ChukAmok: The SOA version is great, but Minor Threat did the best cover of Steppin' Stone, hands down.
	♥ 10:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: BubblePuppy 45 in the house in my toddlerhood. Taking in the Austin Psych from the start !...
	♥ 10:49am yerfriendpaul: Sasafrass is a word that needs more usage!
	♥ 10:49am Jessie: The members of Bubble Puppy were stoned while watching the Beverly Hillbillies. Granny was asked what was for dinner and she said Hot Smoke and Sasafrass. And that is where the band got the name for the song.
	♥ 10:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...cept they were SanAntonio - but signed to IA like the Elevators...
	10:50am Gerry from Miami: Bubble Puppy on the same label as Roky Erickson and the 13th Floor Elevators. Texas psychedelia for sure!
	♥ 10:51am Webhamster Henry: I'm simul-listening to the Jan 6 committee report.
	♥ 10:51am Joe McG: @Jessie: Great story!
	♥ 10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Episode of the Hillbillies Jethro tells the L.A. freaks he's gonna smoke some crawdads ...'That's too weird even for me!'...
	10:52am TDK60: Gracias, Joe. Off to watch the Jan. 6 committee.
	10:54am morphe': TDK ... doing a mix/mash uo = JMcG and WNYC/hearing ... kind of works...
	♥ 10:54am chresti: Joe, not that I know of, mostly local tennis nuts.
	10:55am Choggie: Hiya Joe, sent you an email requesting a 🌮, please, when you have time.
	♥ 10:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I don't wanna jump to wild conclusions - but I'm this close to thinking the DrumpfSupporters were listening to Drumpf.
	♥ 10:57am Brian in UK: Hey Joe.
	♥ 10:57am McGroovey: The only Eric Carmen solo record I have is Boats Against The Current, which I got from a cutout bin for 50¢ in the eighties. I've listened to it once or twice, but never loved it. I love Eric Carmen's good stuff, and I want to love this album, but I can't. I've never heard his first solo album. The soft rock hits on it aren't songs I ever want to listen to on purpose. But No Hard Feelings sounds like the Raspberries. The album might be worth $1 just for that song
	10:59am kevlicki: Mark Hudst- I was just composing an email to you. Wanted to share an irritating pop tune with topically relevant content to you “I don’t care about your crypto boy” https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0amWsMfR2Ok
	♥ 11:00am fred: I just 26 tickets for dance shows. Second batch, 2 more to go. It's stressful because I have 30 minutes to pick shows and seats, while keeping an eye on the other venues' schedules
	♥ 11:01am Mark Hurst: @kevlicki yes good one. "irritating" is right
	♥ 11:04am fred: @Mark Hurst: The European Commission is funding a research project about the use of NFT for contemporary music. They can use the money, but WTF?
	♥ 11:05am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: fred - so obtaining tickets for Art Dance is a competition ?
	♥ 11:08am fred: @RevRab: it is, they go fast. I took a day off from work to jump as soon as booking opened, only to waste time before figuring out the French language page was the place to be
	♥ 11:08am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Elvis and Robbie!
	♥ 11:09am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I can't wait for my swag because I can't even remember what I signed up for. It'll be Christmas in June. Or July. Or August!!
	11:10am ChukAmok: Elvis is in the building?
	♥ 11:11am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I love John Doe's solo records.
	11:11am Joe B: john doe at monty hall was 2017!
	♥ 11:12am Handy Haversack: Some more LIC block party info: queenspost.com...
	♥ 11:12am McGroovey: Also on Thursday night, on this side of the rivers: Yung Wu, The Schramms, Glenn Morrow in Sinatra Park in Hoboken.
	♥ 11:13am Mark Hurst: @fred ugh
	11:13am Joe B: thanks for the plug!
	11:14am Joe B: wow thursday is jam packed - also Mccartney at Giants Stadium
	♥ 11:14am McGroovey: 7:00 pm
	♥ 11:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: JohnDoe always seemed righteous. Glad to hear he is in person ...especially since Exene reportedly spouts RightWing & Conspiracy sewage now. Tho I thot X's latest album great.
	♥ 11:15am Son Of Pantz: Yeeeeee-haw!
	11:15am P-90: the exquisite pain of playing cassettes on the radio
	11:16am Pax: RRN63@10:51 - I remembered that one, and the hippies asked him which end do you draw from. Ever since then I had this silly ridiculous image in my mind of a bunch of scraggly dopey looking hippies standing around constantly lighting crawdads as they implode a lung try to inhale them.
	11:16am Andres: Good morning, Joe and all! Digging the show. The coffee has finally kicked in on Ruby!
	♥ 11:16am Jason from Houston: Dang. That's fast.
	♥ 11:17am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pax & I'm presuming this was a bit before the word 'Hippie' had even completely landed.
	11:18am Mister Dobalina: This is hittin' the spot!
	♥ 11:19am Son Of Pantz: I'm fixin' to clog right quick.
	♥ 11:22am Rich in Washington: I got my swag over the weekend. I feel like my life is complete. For the moment.
	♥ 11:27am Joe McG: @Rich: Great news! Hopefully more swag will be reaching more people over the next couple of weeks.
	11:27am Pax: RRN63: hmm, good question. If it was from one of the earlier black and white episodes, then they would be beatniks. But if it was from one of the later colored episodes then it would be hippies for sure.
	♥ 11:27am Handy Haversack: Happy SWAGVENT, Rich!
	♥ 11:28am fred: @Mark Hurst. On a positive side, I got an extra techtonic T-shirt as a gift for a coworker last year, and he loved it (the facebook/apple/amazon/google one). He said he wore it a lot back in Germany
	♥ 11:28am Son Of Pantz: Have you heard of Freakwater, Joe?
	♥ 11:30am Joe McG: @Pantz: Sure! Have a favorite?
	♥ 11:30am Son Of Pantz: "My Old Drunk Friend"
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: Another fantastic set. Mark Hurst was right! Again!
	♥ 11:32am Joe McG: Second tech gaff of the morning! I'm on fine form today, I think you'll agree.
	11:34am Lixiviated Life: @Handy have a sock He’s often right Maybe too often. Sometimes I wonder if Mark Hurst is really a double agent working for our future robot overlordship? 🤖
	11:35am Hubig Pie: I was all 'damn this is beautiful, then dammit !, then aw there it is'
	♥ 11:35am fred: Hey Joe, it's how we know it's real! Honest, my favorite dance memory is seeing my favorite dancer slip and recover so fast nobody noticed (I only did because I was so focused on her)
	♥ 11:35am Son Of Pantz: Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:36am McGroovey: Does anyone have a music schedule for the Coury Square Block Party? I'd like to catch $75 Bill and Tape Hiss, but I can't be there for 7 hours. Maybe Joe said on air when they're playing? I wasn't listening closely. tappedin.live...
	11:37am Brendan: Nice call, Pantz.
	11:37am Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Joe!
	11:40am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I LOVE 75 dollar bill.
	♥ 11:40am fred: I love this dancer so much I would go see the same show twice, the first to see the show, the second to just watch her
	11:41am TimBk: Does this sound like Denver's Rocky Mountain High to anyone else?
	♥ 11:41am Handy Haversack: Nothing on the event page, McGroove. Maybe Pete will pop up and have some info. www.eventbrite.com...
	11:42am Hubig Pie: This be a John Denver song ?
	♥ 11:43am Joe McG: @Hubig: Yeppers!
	🎸 ♥ 11:43am Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Greets all. Super tardy to the party today; still have a bit of a lingering cough and other annoyances from the "Rona, still, glad to be here this AM....
	♥ 11:44am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ah. JohnDenver did cross my mind.
	♥ 11:44am fred: Eleanor Rigby? That rings a bell, as if someone played a few covers someday
	♥ 11:45am nortonjutland: way to go Joe! playing all the right tunes. thanks.
	♥ 11:45am Joe McG: @fred: Heh heh ;)
	11:46am Mister Dobalina: ⒷⓄⓃⒹⓄ
	11:46am Brendan: So many lonely people, and only 15 minutes left. We caught a break.
	11:47am Rich in Bristol: I've never liked Eleanor Rigby, but I FREKAING LOVE this version!
	♥ 11:48am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's Modal. Don'chaknow.
	11:49am Listener Sean in Long Valley: The bluegrass tunes are awesome. Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:51am chresti: I love just about any song's instrumental version played with fiddles, banjos, guitars, etc
	11:51am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: So it turns out Pabst Blue Ribbon is ok for cheap beer I found out. My last Budweiser was like 40 years ago, so I don't remember if it sucks or not. I think it does, though.
	♥ 11:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: & I'm sometimes annoyed by mandolin. But this gets a pass. WildNeil - ya gotta leave the teabag of weak hops in each vat of ricewater exactly the right duration...
	11:54am Dean: Check out The Waybacks' cover of Floyd Cramer's "Last Date." Mandolin solo is pretty tasty.
	♥ 11:55am radioronan: Thanks Joe!
	♥ 11:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! Have a great week and I'll be with you again next Monday with something different.
	11:56am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @RRN63-well it does cost half as much as Guiness, but it has half the taste also.
	♥ 11:56am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...just tend to feel like - these ukes & mandos ...yer a big boy or girl - you could have an actual Gittar now...
	11:56am zopa: Bluegrass McGasko is my favorite McGasko
	♥ 11:56am Brian in UK: Thanks Joe. Last Thing on my Mind?
	11:57am Brendan: Thanks Joe. Check out The Cuckoo on that Osborne Bros double lp. The harmonies remind me of the Everly Brothers.
	♥ 11:57am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe, surface noise specialist!
	11:58am Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: This bluegrass is just so awesome.
	♥ 11:58am Handy Haversack: That went so fast. Many thanks, Joe! Great show today.
