	6:04pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: Thank you for that, sweetie.
	6:04pm shangri-lounge: Hey Otis and Sandy!! Scott, Hyper-D, Pauly, and Sarcofiguy!
	6:05pm shangri-lounge: I wish we had a big sheet cake for you in the Sheena's break room, Sarcofiguy!
	6:05pm Charles: Funky stuff!
	6:06pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: HAAAAAAA! I so love the idea of that!!!!! Sheet cakes are so damned cool! OR a Carvel Ice Cream Cake!!!!!
	6:06pm Ursula1000: Hey Shangri-La!
	6:07pm shangri-lounge: Hey Ursula!
	6:07pm Ursula1000: How was Tiki?
	6:07pm Mr Fab: Gotta werk like a jerk, but I'm listening!
	6:08pm Ursula1000: Oh wait--did it happen yet?
	6:08pm shangri-lounge: It's actually next week! haha
	6:08pm shangri-lounge: I'm trying to get my life in order before I leave. It's always a struggle, haha.
	6:08pm Ursula1000: haha I have no concept of time
	6:09pm shangri-lounge: I'm super excited to be heading back again. I'll be getting my hair done before my gig, haha. ;)
	6:10pm shangri-lounge: Figure I may as well fully lean in.
	6:10pm Ursula1000: nice!
	6:13pm Charles: Sitting at the park and a random cat just came to me to get petted. That's a sign of good luck I say.
	6:13pm HyperDose: "Tiki culture began at the end of Prohibition in 1933 with the opening of Don's Beachcomber, a Polynesian-themed bar and restaurant in Hollywood, California." Oh wow, all the way back to the 30's. That's a lotta hairstyles to choose from, Shangri!
	6:13pm shangri-lounge: Aw, I love that Charles. When I saw in Montreal, I saw a man walking his black cat in a park.
	6:14pm shangri-lounge: There is a boutique at the event that will do your hair - they give you a range of styles to choose from, but I haven't peeked yet, hyper-D.
	6:15pm Sarcofiguy: @CHARLES: That is so cool!!!!
	6:16pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: I've seen people walk their cat! That must be so bizarre for the kitty, no? Or do that actually like it when they get used to it? I just don't ever want to meet a toilet trained cat.
	6:16pm HyperDose: That's so cool! Reminds me of Sziget Festival where in addition to music, they have all kinds of activities to do and places to chill if you may have over-indulged on fun.
	6:17pm Charles: My theory is that cats are attracted to shangri-vibes.
	6:18pm Sarcofiguy: HAH!!!!!
	6:18pm shangri-lounge: My cat would NEVARRR consider the possibility of being walked in public, lol.
	6:18pm Sarcofiguy: PuUUUUUUUrrrrfect!
	6:19pm shangri-lounge: Very confident cats may like it. It takes a certain kind.
	6:19pm HyperDose: Missy definitely prefers the ladies of WFMU. She comes out and chills on the rug whenever they're on.
	6:20pm shangri-lounge: I hope cats agree...when it comes to Maraschino Melodrama, Charles!
	6:21pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: MewoROCHINO MreLLOdrama! Ask for it by name!
	6:22pm shangri-lounge: Lollll, Sarcofiguy. That is both horrendous/terrific. And, I love it.
	6:23pm Sarcofiguy: HAHAHAH!
	6:24pm Krys O: Good evening!
	6:24pm shangri-lounge: Hi Krys!
	6:27pm Mr Fab: "Sugar Diabetes" has to be the most left-handed compliment ever. Baby, you're so sweet, you give me a deadly disease!
	6:28pm Sarcofiguy: @MRFAB: Who wants to lose a baby toe over love?! ME!!!!
	6:32pm Mr Fab: I'm falling insulin love with you, darlin!
	6:34pm Carmichael: Diggin' this crazy show, Shang!
	6:35pm shangri-lounge: Thanks Carmichael!
	6:38pm Carmichael: L.A. street hippie music ...
	6:38pm coelacanth∅: greetings shangri-la and all
	6:40pm coelacanth∅: hey i mentioned "unhappy girl" on the comments board within the past week! hadn't heard it or thought about it in decades
	🍒 6:41pm WR: Got me dancing as making dinner. I will be try to be careful when handling sharp and pointed objects and phrases.
	6:43pm shangri-lounge: Hi Coel! Hi WR!
	6:43pm Sarcofiguy: @MRFAB: I just saw the insulin joke! BRAVOOO! HAHAHAHAH
	6:47pm Mr Fab: snaps fingers You in the back, try and keep up!
	6:47pm shangri-lounge: It's a wonder you haven't been scouted by Hallmark yet, Fab.
	6:48pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	6:50pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: Heys!
	6:50pm shangri-lounge: Hi Austin!
	6:51pm HyperDose: Kim Wilde sounds like really good karaoke
	6:51pm Austin Rich: Hello Hello! Just getting settled in for an evening's radio.
	6:52pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: Hah!
	🍒 6:52pm Krys O.: Allo again! Luv Kim!
	6:52pm Mr Fab: that's a funny idea, shangri-lounge. How DOES one get a job at a greeting card company - Do people just send in ideas? Is there a college major in the field?
	6:53pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: I was eatin' dinnah! I had to miss the jokes, man! Shangri has a charmingly Pavlovian effect on my salivary glands!
	6:53pm shangri-lounge: I believe...you give them your card, Fab? ;)
	6:54pm Otis: Thanks for all the supper-preppin-songs and now off to eat. Have fun in SD! Was great to see you both in MTL. Cheers!
	6:54pm Barno in Akron: Hello everyone! I was listening in the car and just arrived home. Popping in to drop a "nice show" into the comments.
	6:55pm shangri-lounge: Thank you, Barno - that is very kind.
	6:55pm shangri-lounge: Have a great din-din, Otis!
	6:55pm Mr Fab: "Skalette O'Hara"? Oh come ON!
	6:56pm Carmichael: And her man, Dread Butler.
	6:56pm shangri-lounge: Hahahaha, I know. What a name...
	🍒 6:58pm Krys O.: @Mr. Fab: A good friend of mine studied at Ringling School of Art & Design in Sarasota, FL. He told me that many of their students went on to work at greeting card companies.
	6:59pm Carmichael: I've been watching an Antiques Roadshow episode from Ringling's place in Sarasota.
	6:59pm Mr Fab: Carmichael: Boom! Interesting, Krys. i wonder if the artists write the texts, too.
	7:07pm Ursula1000: love Chris Spedding-this album and the one before it w him leaning on the car are awesome!
	🍒 7:09pm Krys O.: It's probably all freelancers now, Mr. Fab.
	7:10pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: We need to make a line of Sheena's Greeting Cards. I'll write them, you illustrate them? This could be big for next Drive!
	🍒 7:11pm Krys O.: Ah, Nouvelle Vague...love this cover.
	7:11pm David Shortell: I never heard of Izzy Bardot. Wasn't that English title/lyrics to France Gall's "Laisse tomber les filles" scribed by April March?
	7:12pm shangri-lounge: Sammmme Ursula! He is definitely underrated.
	7:12pm shangri-lounge: Hi David, yep that's right. And, nothing beats the April March version! I'm guessing that Izzy Bardot must have been a project specifically for that release. I've not managed to find anything else on her!
	🍒 7:14pm Krys O.: Saw Chris Spedding play with Robert Gordon at a local bar in Montclair. They were late, but it was so worth the wait. @Austin: That sounds so cool!
	7:14pm Austin Rich: Voice of The Beehive is pretty great, but reminds me of someone... from Athens...
	7:15pm Feldy: Hey Shangri-La! Hey every buddy
	7:15pm postconsumer: tuned in to get in the mood for my show, next hour. Hello, Shangri-lounge, and everyone. :)
	7:16pm Mr Fab: funny idea, Austin, but I can't draw my way out of a paper bag.
	7:16pm postconsumer: I'm not great with a pencil, but I do like illustrating, with photoshop.
	7:16pm Austin Rich: Clip Art? I mean, they should all have to do with having cocktails in the jungle listening to radio, anyway. We probably only need one or two images.
	7:17pm David Shortell: What bar in Montclair, Krys O? Tierney's Tavern?
	🍒 7:18pm Krys O.: Hi, David. Yes, the legendary Tierney's. My ex and I lived up the road blocks away. We kept pinching ourselves because it was such a treat.
	7:19pm shangri-lounge: Hey Feldz and Jon.
	7:20pm Austin Rich: If you're like me - and I know I am - then you probably miss going to bars and clubs a fair amount. (I haven't been "out" since we started isolation.) When it's safe again, I'm torn regarding the first bar I should go to. Portland has two: The Coffin Club, and Creepys, that are both weird and wonderful and have great drinks. And then in Eugene, there's an actual Tiki bar, with a patio and whatnot, that we still haven't checked out. Those those are the bars I dream about at night.
	7:22pm shangri-lounge: The Coffin Club and Creepys both sound very fun.
	7:23pm Austin Rich: Coffin Club is the goth bar in PDX. Lots of spooky DJs and weird drinks and actual coffins and weird lovecraft crap on the walls, and all the old elder punks hang out and dance and complain and it's GREAT. www.thecoffinclubpdx.com
	7:25pm Austin Rich: Creepys has good weird paintings, plants, strange sculptures, and other "creepy" stuff that the owners collect and arrange in the bar. Plus: lots of velvet paintings. The drinks there are fantastic. www.creepyspdx.com
	7:25pm HyperDose: WHY DID MY CAT'S HEAD POP UP FROM THE COUCH?! 🤣
	7:25pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: This Sylvia "Pussy Cat" cut is TOUGH! Love it!!!!!
	7:26pm shangri-lounge: Hahhaha, I hope this song doesn't send your cat into heat, Hyper-D.
	7:26pm postconsumer: love this
	7:27pm David Shortell: I looked up Ros Sorey Sothea. As I figured, she's a Khmer Rouge victim, her exact fate unknown.
	7:27pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: hahahah!
	7:27pm Feldy: EGYPT! EGYPT!
	7:27pm Austin Rich: I have never been to The Monkey's Paw, but they opened up since the pandemic, technically in Springfield, but that's almost Eugene, anyway. Patio, neat drinks, and events, too. I drink of checking it out. facebook.com/themonkeyspawtikibar/
	7:28pm Austin Rich: David Shortell: I was afraid that might be the case.
	7:28pm HyperDose: No way, she's fixed thank gawd lol
	7:28pm Mr Fab: I know what you mean, Austin - I did Tiki Oasis festival a year ago, then back to hiding from the world. Even tho I got my booster, I'm not really in the habit of going out much. But Mrs Fab and i did recently go to a mini-festival called Tiki Noir that really was more monster/goth than noir. Def tiki, tho. Some excellent band like The Hula Girls played, burlesque dancers did their thing, cocktails were quite good. Felt good to be back. And those Portland joints sound way cool! Now I know what to do should I ever visit the frozen northlands.
	7:29pm Feldy: @Austin, Creepy's really pays off on its promise. I'm sure Solo Mon has been there
	7:29pm Austin Rich: There were a few DJs at one of the stations I worked at in Portland that referred to Egyptian Lover and this kind of dance music "Cocaine Disco" on their radio show. I still think about that.
	7:30pm shangri-lounge: Lol at cocaine disco. Sounds about right though.
	7:30pm Austin Rich: Someday, I'll make it down south, and I'll have to do a proper restaurant / bar tour of LA. I've never been in that town long enough to spend a night out.
	7:30pm Charles: I was wondering, where is the place to be?
	7:31pm Austin Rich: @Feldy: I was there once, and it was a lot of fun! Then the pandemic hit and... haven't been back.
	7:31pm Austin Rich: Maybe I should get really into mixology and put on a radio show about mixing drinks?
	7:33pm Austin Rich: I thought that was the B-52s? Voice of the Beehive, huh...?
	7:34pm Austin Rich: Holy Cats! This cover is fantastic!
	7:34pm shangri-lounge: I sort of hate buying 12" singles, but I couldn't resist this one!
	7:36pm Austin Rich: There's a certain lost art to the 12" single that is sort of not as relevant these days. That seems like a subject postconsumer should cover on his show!
	7:38pm postconsumer: I have a love/hate relationship with vinyl. It's really cool and I love to play it around the house. But for my show, for some reason I go insane and try to clean up every single little tick and pop. serious waste of my time, but I'm super OCD about it.
	7:38pm Austin Rich: Someone, somewhere, appreciates that work, postconsumer! Just seems like you play a lot of obscure 12"s on your show.
	7:39pm Sarcofiguy: @POST: I gotta hear every click, crack and skip. It's alive. So ALIVE!
	7:40pm postconsumer: I have, lately. a couple coming up today, actually. sarcofiguy - I get it! :)
	7:40pm Austin Rich: I like the surface noise myself, Sarcofiguy. But there's an academic part of me that also appreciates a clean recording. "A place in time to put every time in its place," to quote Negativland.
	🍒 7:41pm Krys O.: Team surface noise here.
	7:41pm Charles: Do they recommend using Satan in Love to resuscitate someone like they do with Stayin' Alive?
	7:42pm shangri-lounge: Same! I enjoy the snap, crackle, pop, as long as it's not too obtrusive.
	7:42pm Sarcofiguy: @POST AND AUSTIN: I'm immediately transported when I hear the needle drop on that weathered road, you know? Now, when I'm listening to classical music? I need to hear the cd.
	7:42pm shangri-lounge: No, this one is to send them straight to hell, Charles.
	7:43pm postconsumer: I'm weird, I know.
	7:43pm Austin Rich: I find that I have a certain prejudice toward enjoying music old enough to contain a crackle, where I expect it to already be good. But if I'm recording music? Better be razor-sharp, super-clean. We can add a layer of noise afterwards, if necessary.
	7:43pm Charles: Oh! Well that can have its uses too.
	7:43pm Mr Fab: I heard John Peel once say something like it's okay if a record has surface noise because life has surface noise.
	🍒 7:44pm Krys O.: Truth.
	7:44pm Austin Rich: Sarcofiguy: I think I feel the same way. I think I like records because of all the years growing up listening to my parents drop the needle, too. I like that saying, Mr. Fab. Peel usually was pretty sharp.
	7:45pm shangri-lounge: That's a nice lil bumper sticker by John Peel.
	7:45pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I'm like that about certain books. The older a book, newsprint, what-have-you? I love to breathe it all in. Old books are, of course, quite intoxicating. Now, when it comes to graphic novels, or art history books, or art books? Pristine as possible.
	7:46pm shangri-lounge: But a muskrat must guard his musky records.
	7:46pm postconsumer: Austin - that's exactly it, for me. I've added scratchy record sounds in, afterward, in my own stuff, but only in one or two places, where I thought it was needed. It's not always needed... but at home, on the hi-fi, it's cozy as heck. :)
	7:46pm Austin Rich: Sarcofiguy: Ha! My mom had a used bookstore when I was a kid. That smell is the smell of my childhood. I'll take some comics in any condition I can get them, but certainly, I'm looking for something in good shape. Just isn't always in the cards.
	7:47pm Charles: I get ya Sarcofiguy.
	🍒 7:47pm Krys O.: I had first edition Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, and Bobbsy Twins books. Sniffing them while I read them was heavenly to me.
	7:47pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I love to smell my MARVEL TREASURY EDITIONS when I'm reading them. That PONG is the PONG of ancient adepts, goddamit!
	7:47pm Mr Fab: Is this the Pleasure Seekers that featured Susie Quatro?
	7:47pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' BOUT!!!!!!
	7:48pm Austin Rich: I totally read all those books when I was a kid, Krys O, and I can't remember a thing about any of them. I think the Hardy Boys found pirate treasure once? That's about it.
	7:48pm Austin Rich: Sacrofiguy: Those Treasury Editions are pretty dope, for a lot of reasons.
	7:49pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: Yep!
	🍒 7:49pm Krys O.: Nancy Drew books were my favorite. I could read one or two a day back then.
	7:49pm postconsumer: I read some of those treasuries with my little boy when he was getting into the MCU a few years ago.
	🍒 7:50pm Krys O.: I bought a set of Collier's Junior Classics a few years ago to replace the ones my mom threw out. It's like a security blanket feeling.
	🍒 7:51pm Krys O.: Reading with your kid is awesome, post. Good on ya.
	7:51pm Mr Fab: ha, this song just reminded me to put my laundry in the dryer. Thanks, Waitresses!
	🍒 7:51pm Krys O.: Ha!
	7:51pm postconsumer: "Did you know I own some valuable records?"
	7:52pm Austin Rich: This song reminds me that I need to listen to The Waitresses more often. Thanks Waitresses!
	7:53pm Feldy: I would buy a candle that smelled like a pile of old comic books
	🍒 7:54pm Krys O.: I don't know the cost of stamps now.
	7:54pm Austin Rich: Old Books Candle: www.frostbeardstudio.com...
	7:55pm Feldy: NO WAY! COOL
	7:55pm Austin Rich: Old Comic Books: www.etsy.com...
	7:55pm Scott67: Thanks Shangri! Haven't been Chat attentive, fellin pretty weary from fightin this Flu. Take care my mates! 🍻😎🤙💨🌻
	7:56pm Austin Rich: Fantastic Show, Shangrila! Thanks again!
	🍒 7:56pm Pauly from Clifton: Thanks, Shangri-La!
	🍒 7:56pm Krys O.: Feel better, Scott. Thanks, Shangri-La!
	7:56pm Charles: Thanks for the Shangri-nergy!
	7:56pm HyperDose: Thanks for the party, Shangri!
	7:57pm shangri-lounge: Sorry to hear you are sick, Scott! Hope you feel better soon.
	🍒 7:57pm Krys O.: Here's the link for the Wiggle Room coming up with Some Assembly Required: wfmu.org...
	7:57pm shangri-lounge: Thanks guys for tuning in. As always!! <3
	7:58pm Mr Fab: SUPER cool show, mucho thx, Shangri-la!

	🍒 6:03pm Pauly from Clifton: Hiya Shangri-La, gang!
	6:03pm Scott67: G'day Otis & Sondy!🍻😎🤙🍁❤️❤️
	6:04pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: Thank you for that, sweetie.
	6:04pm shangri-lounge: Hey Otis and Sandy!! Scott, Hyper-D, Pauly, and Sarcofiguy!
	6:05pm shangri-lounge: I wish we had a big sheet cake for you in the Sheena's break room, Sarcofiguy!
	6:05pm Charles: Funky stuff!
	6:06pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: HAAAAAAA! I so love the idea of that!!!!! Sheet cakes are so damned cool! OR a Carvel Ice Cream Cake!!!!!
	6:06pm Ursula1000: Hey Shangri-La!
	6:07pm shangri-lounge: Hey Ursula!
	6:07pm Ursula1000: How was Tiki?
	6:07pm Mr Fab: Gotta werk like a jerk, but I'm listening!
	6:08pm Ursula1000: Oh wait--did it happen yet?
	6:08pm shangri-lounge: It's actually next week! haha
	6:08pm shangri-lounge: I'm trying to get my life in order before I leave. It's always a struggle, haha.
	6:08pm Ursula1000: haha I have no concept of time
	6:09pm shangri-lounge: I'm super excited to be heading back again. I'll be getting my hair done before my gig, haha. ;)
	6:10pm shangri-lounge: Figure I may as well fully lean in.
	6:10pm Ursula1000: nice!
	6:13pm Charles: Sitting at the park and a random cat just came to me to get petted. That's a sign of good luck I say.
	6:13pm HyperDose: "Tiki culture began at the end of Prohibition in 1933 with the opening of Don's Beachcomber, a Polynesian-themed bar and restaurant in Hollywood, California." Oh wow, all the way back to the 30's. That's a lotta hairstyles to choose from, Shangri!
	6:13pm shangri-lounge: Aw, I love that Charles. When I saw in Montreal, I saw a man walking his black cat in a park.
	6:14pm shangri-lounge: There is a boutique at the event that will do your hair - they give you a range of styles to choose from, but I haven't peeked yet, hyper-D.
	6:15pm Sarcofiguy: @CHARLES: That is so cool!!!!
	6:16pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: I've seen people walk their cat! That must be so bizarre for the kitty, no? Or do that actually like it when they get used to it? I just don't ever want to meet a toilet trained cat.
	6:16pm HyperDose: That's so cool! Reminds me of Sziget Festival where in addition to music, they have all kinds of activities to do and places to chill if you may have over-indulged on fun.
	6:17pm Charles: My theory is that cats are attracted to shangri-vibes.
	6:18pm Sarcofiguy: HAH!!!!!
	6:18pm shangri-lounge: My cat would NEVARRR consider the possibility of being walked in public, lol.
	6:18pm Sarcofiguy: PuUUUUUUUrrrrfect!
	6:19pm shangri-lounge: Very confident cats may like it. It takes a certain kind.
	6:19pm HyperDose: Missy definitely prefers the ladies of WFMU. She comes out and chills on the rug whenever they're on.
	6:20pm shangri-lounge: I hope cats agree...when it comes to Maraschino Melodrama, Charles!
	6:21pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: MewoROCHINO MreLLOdrama! Ask for it by name!
	6:22pm shangri-lounge: Lollll, Sarcofiguy. That is both horrendous/terrific. And, I love it.
	6:23pm Sarcofiguy: HAHAHAH!
	6:24pm Krys O: Good evening!
	6:24pm shangri-lounge: Hi Krys!
	6:27pm Mr Fab: "Sugar Diabetes" has to be the most left-handed compliment ever. Baby, you're so sweet, you give me a deadly disease!
	6:28pm Sarcofiguy: @MRFAB: Who wants to lose a baby toe over love?! ME!!!!
	6:32pm Mr Fab: I'm falling insulin love with you, darlin!
	6:34pm Carmichael: Diggin' this crazy show, Shang!
	6:35pm shangri-lounge: Thanks Carmichael!
	6:38pm Carmichael: L.A. street hippie music ...
	6:38pm coelacanth∅: greetings shangri-la and all
	6:40pm coelacanth∅: hey i mentioned "unhappy girl" on the comments board within the past week! hadn't heard it or thought about it in decades
	🍒 6:41pm WR: Got me dancing as making dinner. I will be try to be careful when handling sharp and pointed objects and phrases.
	6:43pm shangri-lounge: Hi Coel! Hi WR!
	6:43pm Sarcofiguy: @MRFAB: I just saw the insulin joke! BRAVOOO! HAHAHAHAH
	6:47pm Mr Fab: snaps fingers You in the back, try and keep up!
	6:47pm shangri-lounge: It's a wonder you haven't been scouted by Hallmark yet, Fab.
	6:48pm Austin Rich: Good Hello.
	6:50pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: Heys!
	6:50pm shangri-lounge: Hi Austin!
	6:51pm HyperDose: Kim Wilde sounds like really good karaoke
	6:51pm Austin Rich: Hello Hello! Just getting settled in for an evening's radio.
	6:52pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: Hah!
	🍒 6:52pm Krys O.: Allo again! Luv Kim!
	6:52pm Mr Fab: that's a funny idea, shangri-lounge. How DOES one get a job at a greeting card company - Do people just send in ideas? Is there a college major in the field?
	6:53pm Sarcofiguy: @FAB: I was eatin' dinnah! I had to miss the jokes, man! Shangri has a charmingly Pavlovian effect on my salivary glands!
	6:53pm shangri-lounge: I believe...you give them your card, Fab? ;)
	6:54pm Otis: Thanks for all the supper-preppin-songs and now off to eat. Have fun in SD! Was great to see you both in MTL. Cheers!
	6:54pm Barno in Akron: Hello everyone! I was listening in the car and just arrived home. Popping in to drop a "nice show" into the comments.
	6:55pm shangri-lounge: Thank you, Barno - that is very kind.
	6:55pm shangri-lounge: Have a great din-din, Otis!
	6:55pm Mr Fab: "Skalette O'Hara"? Oh come ON!
	6:56pm Carmichael: And her man, Dread Butler.
	6:56pm shangri-lounge: Hahahaha, I know. What a name...
	🍒 6:58pm Krys O.: @Mr. Fab: A good friend of mine studied at Ringling School of Art & Design in Sarasota, FL. He told me that many of their students went on to work at greeting card companies.
	6:59pm Carmichael: I've been watching an Antiques Roadshow episode from Ringling's place in Sarasota.
	6:59pm Mr Fab: Carmichael: Boom! Interesting, Krys. i wonder if the artists write the texts, too.
	7:07pm Ursula1000: love Chris Spedding-this album and the one before it w him leaning on the car are awesome!
	🍒 7:09pm Krys O.: It's probably all freelancers now, Mr. Fab.
	7:10pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: We need to make a line of Sheena's Greeting Cards. I'll write them, you illustrate them? This could be big for next Drive!
	🍒 7:11pm Krys O.: Ah, Nouvelle Vague...love this cover.
	7:11pm David Shortell: I never heard of Izzy Bardot. Wasn't that English title/lyrics to France Gall's "Laisse tomber les filles" scribed by April March?
	7:12pm shangri-lounge: Sammmme Ursula! He is definitely underrated.
	7:12pm shangri-lounge: Hi David, yep that's right. And, nothing beats the April March version! I'm guessing that Izzy Bardot must have been a project specifically for that release. I've not managed to find anything else on her!
	🍒 7:14pm Krys O.: Saw Chris Spedding play with Robert Gordon at a local bar in Montclair. They were late, but it was so worth the wait. @Austin: That sounds so cool!
	7:14pm Austin Rich: Voice of The Beehive is pretty great, but reminds me of someone... from Athens...
	7:15pm Feldy: Hey Shangri-La! Hey every buddy
	7:15pm postconsumer: tuned in to get in the mood for my show, next hour. Hello, Shangri-lounge, and everyone. :)
	7:16pm Mr Fab: funny idea, Austin, but I can't draw my way out of a paper bag.
	7:16pm postconsumer: I'm not great with a pencil, but I do like illustrating, with photoshop.
	7:16pm Austin Rich: Clip Art? I mean, they should all have to do with having cocktails in the jungle listening to radio, anyway. We probably only need one or two images.
	7:17pm David Shortell: What bar in Montclair, Krys O? Tierney's Tavern?
	🍒 7:18pm Krys O.: Hi, David. Yes, the legendary Tierney's. My ex and I lived up the road blocks away. We kept pinching ourselves because it was such a treat.
	7:19pm shangri-lounge: Hey Feldz and Jon.
	7:20pm Austin Rich: If you're like me - and I know I am - then you probably miss going to bars and clubs a fair amount. (I haven't been "out" since we started isolation.) When it's safe again, I'm torn regarding the first bar I should go to. Portland has two: The Coffin Club, and Creepys, that are both weird and wonderful and have great drinks. And then in Eugene, there's an actual Tiki bar, with a patio and whatnot, that we still haven't checked out. Those those are the bars I dream about at night.
	7:22pm shangri-lounge: The Coffin Club and Creepys both sound very fun.
	7:23pm Austin Rich: Coffin Club is the goth bar in PDX. Lots of spooky DJs and weird drinks and actual coffins and weird lovecraft crap on the walls, and all the old elder punks hang out and dance and complain and it's GREAT. www.thecoffinclubpdx.com
	7:25pm Austin Rich: Creepys has good weird paintings, plants, strange sculptures, and other "creepy" stuff that the owners collect and arrange in the bar. Plus: lots of velvet paintings. The drinks there are fantastic. www.creepyspdx.com
	7:25pm HyperDose: WHY DID MY CAT'S HEAD POP UP FROM THE COUCH?! 🤣
	7:25pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: This Sylvia "Pussy Cat" cut is TOUGH! Love it!!!!!
	7:26pm shangri-lounge: Hahhaha, I hope this song doesn't send your cat into heat, Hyper-D.
	7:26pm postconsumer: love this
	7:27pm David Shortell: I looked up Ros Sorey Sothea. As I figured, she's a Khmer Rouge victim, her exact fate unknown.
	7:27pm Sarcofiguy: @SHANGRI: hahahah!
	7:27pm Feldy: EGYPT! EGYPT!
	7:27pm Austin Rich: I have never been to The Monkey's Paw, but they opened up since the pandemic, technically in Springfield, but that's almost Eugene, anyway. Patio, neat drinks, and events, too. I drink of checking it out. facebook.com/themonkeyspawtikibar/
	7:28pm Austin Rich: David Shortell: I was afraid that might be the case.
	7:28pm HyperDose: No way, she's fixed thank gawd lol
	7:28pm Mr Fab: I know what you mean, Austin - I did Tiki Oasis festival a year ago, then back to hiding from the world. Even tho I got my booster, I'm not really in the habit of going out much. But Mrs Fab and i did recently go to a mini-festival called Tiki Noir that really was more monster/goth than noir. Def tiki, tho. Some excellent band like The Hula Girls played, burlesque dancers did their thing, cocktails were quite good. Felt good to be back. And those Portland joints sound way cool! Now I know what to do should I ever visit the frozen northlands.
	7:29pm Feldy: @Austin, Creepy's really pays off on its promise. I'm sure Solo Mon has been there
	7:29pm Austin Rich: There were a few DJs at one of the stations I worked at in Portland that referred to Egyptian Lover and this kind of dance music "Cocaine Disco" on their radio show. I still think about that.
	7:30pm shangri-lounge: Lol at cocaine disco. Sounds about right though.
	7:30pm Austin Rich: Someday, I'll make it down south, and I'll have to do a proper restaurant / bar tour of LA. I've never been in that town long enough to spend a night out.
	7:30pm Charles: I was wondering, where is the place to be?
	7:31pm Austin Rich: @Feldy: I was there once, and it was a lot of fun! Then the pandemic hit and... haven't been back.
	7:31pm Austin Rich: Maybe I should get really into mixology and put on a radio show about mixing drinks?
	7:33pm Austin Rich: I thought that was the B-52s? Voice of the Beehive, huh...?
	7:34pm Austin Rich: Holy Cats! This cover is fantastic!
	7:34pm shangri-lounge: I sort of hate buying 12" singles, but I couldn't resist this one!
	7:36pm Austin Rich: There's a certain lost art to the 12" single that is sort of not as relevant these days. That seems like a subject postconsumer should cover on his show!
	7:38pm postconsumer: I have a love/hate relationship with vinyl. It's really cool and I love to play it around the house. But for my show, for some reason I go insane and try to clean up every single little tick and pop. serious waste of my time, but I'm super OCD about it.
	7:38pm Austin Rich: Someone, somewhere, appreciates that work, postconsumer! Just seems like you play a lot of obscure 12"s on your show.
	7:39pm Sarcofiguy: @POST: I gotta hear every click, crack and skip. It's alive. So ALIVE!
	7:40pm postconsumer: I have, lately. a couple coming up today, actually. sarcofiguy - I get it! :)
	7:40pm Austin Rich: I like the surface noise myself, Sarcofiguy. But there's an academic part of me that also appreciates a clean recording. "A place in time to put every time in its place," to quote Negativland.
	🍒 7:41pm Krys O.: Team surface noise here.
	7:41pm Charles: Do they recommend using Satan in Love to resuscitate someone like they do with Stayin' Alive?
	7:42pm shangri-lounge: Same! I enjoy the snap, crackle, pop, as long as it's not too obtrusive.
	7:42pm Sarcofiguy: @POST AND AUSTIN: I'm immediately transported when I hear the needle drop on that weathered road, you know? Now, when I'm listening to classical music? I need to hear the cd.
	7:42pm shangri-lounge: No, this one is to send them straight to hell, Charles.
	7:43pm postconsumer: I'm weird, I know.
	7:43pm Austin Rich: I find that I have a certain prejudice toward enjoying music old enough to contain a crackle, where I expect it to already be good. But if I'm recording music? Better be razor-sharp, super-clean. We can add a layer of noise afterwards, if necessary.
	7:43pm Charles: Oh! Well that can have its uses too.
	7:43pm Mr Fab: I heard John Peel once say something like it's okay if a record has surface noise because life has surface noise.
	🍒 7:44pm Krys O.: Truth.
	7:44pm Austin Rich: Sarcofiguy: I think I feel the same way. I think I like records because of all the years growing up listening to my parents drop the needle, too. I like that saying, Mr. Fab. Peel usually was pretty sharp.
	7:45pm shangri-lounge: That's a nice lil bumper sticker by John Peel.
	7:45pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I'm like that about certain books. The older a book, newsprint, what-have-you? I love to breathe it all in. Old books are, of course, quite intoxicating. Now, when it comes to graphic novels, or art history books, or art books? Pristine as possible.
	7:46pm shangri-lounge: But a muskrat must guard his musky records.
	7:46pm postconsumer: Austin - that's exactly it, for me. I've added scratchy record sounds in, afterward, in my own stuff, but only in one or two places, where I thought it was needed. It's not always needed... but at home, on the hi-fi, it's cozy as heck. :)
	7:46pm Austin Rich: Sarcofiguy: Ha! My mom had a used bookstore when I was a kid. That smell is the smell of my childhood. I'll take some comics in any condition I can get them, but certainly, I'm looking for something in good shape. Just isn't always in the cards.
	7:47pm Charles: I get ya Sarcofiguy.
	🍒 7:47pm Krys O.: I had first edition Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, and Bobbsy Twins books. Sniffing them while I read them was heavenly to me.
	7:47pm Sarcofiguy: @AUSTIN: I love to smell my MARVEL TREASURY EDITIONS when I'm reading them. That PONG is the PONG of ancient adepts, goddamit!
	7:47pm Mr Fab: Is this the Pleasure Seekers that featured Susie Quatro?
	7:47pm Sarcofiguy: @KRYS: THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKIN' BOUT!!!!!!
	7:48pm Austin Rich: I totally read all those books when I was a kid, Krys O, and I can't remember a thing about any of them. I think the Hardy Boys found pirate treasure once? That's about it.
	7:48pm Austin Rich: Sacrofiguy: Those Treasury Editions are pretty dope, for a lot of reasons.
	7:49pm Austin Rich: Mr. Fab: Yep!
	🍒 7:49pm Krys O.: Nancy Drew books were my favorite. I could read one or two a day back then.
	7:49pm postconsumer: I read some of those treasuries with my little boy when he was getting into the MCU a few years ago.
	🍒 7:50pm Krys O.: I bought a set of Collier's Junior Classics a few years ago to replace the ones my mom threw out. It's like a security blanket feeling.
	🍒 7:51pm Krys O.: Reading with your kid is awesome, post. Good on ya.
	7:51pm Mr Fab: ha, this song just reminded me to put my laundry in the dryer. Thanks, Waitresses!
	🍒 7:51pm Krys O.: Ha!
	7:51pm postconsumer: "Did you know I own some valuable records?"
	7:52pm Austin Rich: This song reminds me that I need to listen to The Waitresses more often. Thanks Waitresses!
	7:53pm Feldy: I would buy a candle that smelled like a pile of old comic books
	🍒 7:54pm Krys O.: I don't know the cost of stamps now.
	7:54pm Austin Rich: Old Books Candle: www.frostbeardstudio.com...
	7:55pm Feldy: NO WAY! COOL
	7:55pm Austin Rich: Old Comic Books: www.etsy.com...
	7:55pm Scott67: Thanks Shangri! Haven't been Chat attentive, fellin pretty weary from fightin this Flu. Take care my mates! 🍻😎🤙💨🌻

	7:56pm Charles: Thanks for the Shangri-nergy!
	7:56pm HyperDose: Thanks for the party, Shangri!
	7:57pm shangri-lounge: Sorry to hear you are sick, Scott! Hope you feel better soon.
