	3:04pm Hubig Pie: Radio noir
	3:04pm Jason from Houston: I wonder what the world would be like if everyone just casually exhaled cigarette smoke like that. Like, just on a break in an alley. Or at the bar?

	3:04pm Cooh John: Take us away, Monica.

	3:10pm Miss G: And greetings to all! I was so dreamy I forgot to say hello.
	3:12pm Miss G: And in the background I'm watching Anita O'Day sing at Newport in the most gorgeous black hat with feathers.
	3:12pm Parq: Wow, it's hot out. Glad to be in AC with Monica's show.
	3:14pm listener james from westwood: Somehow didn't have this Caretaker album. Fixed. Thanks, Bandcamp, for being a zillion times easier to use than iTunes!
	3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 AnitaO'Day
	3:15pm joe mulligan: the Caretaker has been a top 5 seller at Boomkat for years.. like Dark Side of the Moon top selling album status
	3:16pm Glistener MW: Major Force!!! ⭐️ amazing!
	👻 3:18pm doctorjazz: Hi Monica and you all out there!
	3:18pm Miss G: These two photos from an article about The Caretaker Challenge has become my meme to send to friends when I'm having a day like today. media.npr.org...
	3:19pm Monica: Yo, Parq, RevRab, joe mulligan, Glistener MW, and doctorjazz!
	3:20pm Carmichael: Hay Zeus Christo, The temp on Labor Day will be 111 degrees here on the valley floor.
	3:21pm Miss G: (oh I can't stop but I have to leave laptop vicinity for a time so here is a photo of Anita O'Day) jazzbuffalo.org...
	3:22pm Richy4619: Just wish I could swap out a joint in place of that cigarette
	3:23pm listener Scott: first time listening to Monica (or any WFMU deejay) on my phone walking around the city. New unlimited data plan totally opens up FMU listening horizons.
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: i'll take it if it's a marlboro, and i got some herb for you but you gotta roll it
	3:24pm chris in the redwoods: freeform freedom, listener Scott!
	3:25pm waters7: I'm feeling a little low here so am so grateful to have Monica as a tonic!
	3:26pm Monica: hey there, Richy4619, listener Scott, and waters7!
	3:27pm Michael 98145: @carm ... that be a BIT warm. sorry.
	3:27pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Monica! If I were at the beach instead of where I am, which is diligently working from home, of course, I’d call this the perfect soundtrack for relaxing as the surf gently rolls in. But, as I want to stress, I’m at home doing my work.
	3:29pm Monica: GAYLORD!!! Always a red letter day when I know you're tuned in xxoo
	3:30pm HyperDose: I feel the love in the air
	3:30pm efd: and it's always a red-letter day when Monica is on the air! So that makes two red letters for today, by my count!
	3:31pm Pete L: good dj work. Thanks.
	3:31pm Gaylord Fields: xxoo Monica! @listener Scott: I just signed on to an unlimited data plan myself, for the same reason! Keep on roamin’ freeform style!
	3:31pm Michael 98145: Well that was a fine start
	3:32pm HyperDose: A lot of those unlimited plans come with tethering so you can use your phone as a mobile hotspot for a laptop or whatever. More Freeform baby!
	3:32pm Howard & the Cats: Yay Monica!!!
	3:32pm Stanley: Wait, I'm missing this? No way José!
	3:33pm Jason Lee: Tears of a clown…
	3:38pm Michael 98145: thot that was Regina at first ...
	3:39pm Gaylord Fields: @HyperDose: Yep, that hotspot is how I’m able to listen to Monica here on the bea… er, in my home office while I work. (Excuse me while I knock some of the sand out of my reef runners that I happen to wear in my home office.)
	3:39pm Monica: EFD in the place to be! Along with HyperDose, Pete L, Howard & the Cats, Stanley, and Jason Lee!
	3:39pm indoor shrimp: it does sound like a regina a bit! hello everyone!
	3:40pm joe mulligan: oh wow thanks so much for telling us the Lullaby of the Leaves was the original track sampled by the Caretaker. for years I've been searching. and I also discovered the song is more special to me because my dad's cousin Gerry also recorded the song in 1952
	3:44pm Phillippe: Yay, Monica!
	3:45pm Monica: hello indoor shrimp and Phillippe!
	3:47pm love2laf: Nice to be back online after 2 hours of tech checking the line. Thank you Monica, the great tunes are helping with this tech created & weather created, headache.
	3:48pm Mr C: Sounding good like a rocking jock should!
	3:50pm upstatesean: ‘Sup Monica, everyone
	3:51pm Michael 98145: sometimes the robots need a reminder ...
	3:53pm G: Classic Monica, as always. Kinda snowed under with work and houseguest stuff since 5:15am, so not much time to comment... But listening...
	3:55pm Monica: MR C - whee and THX!!!!.... love2laf, upstatesean, and G - great to have you here.
	3:58pm Pax: Gaylord@3:39 - also be sure to get any of little tiny hermit crabs that live in those pooka shells that may have gotten mixed in the sand. You wouldn't want any of them crawling around in your.. ahem "office"!
	3:59pm Monica: hello, Pax!
	4:01pm Miss G: gosh, I recognize that Skyy "First Time Around" from the clubs, that brought me back.
	4:02pm chris in the redwoods: banjoin' and fiddlin' at warp 10. dig!
	4:03pm Michael 98145: Fiddle Trek
	4:03pm Parq: Hillbillies in Space! Now that would have made a good episode, better than the "Irish Travelers in Space" episode that "Next Gen" did.
	4:05pm Bread and Jam for Frances: a death playlist
	4:05pm knundrum500: Easy, usb imbedded in the headstone
	4:06pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi Hi!
	4:06pm love2laf: John Prine, Please Don't Bury Me, just to break the ice with some tasteless humour.
	4:06pm Bread and Jam for Frances: Joy to hear you, Monica.
	4:06pm Michael 98145: plug and play!
	4:06pm steveo: ℍ𝔼𝕃𝕃𝕆 𝕄𝕆ℕ𝕀ℂ𝔸
	4:06pm joe mulligan: I made one of those lists, but now I just call it my "earworm" songs that I really enjoy. open.spotify.com...
	4:06pm People Like Us: hello!
	4:07pm chris in the redwoods: is there a song entitled, "enough about me, start drinking already", or, "i croaked but you're still around, so go live life, damnit"?
	4:07pm knundrum500: Somehow waterproof? Like a jump drive in a carved pocket of the headstone, and people can come visit and download the playlist somehow?
	4:07pm Jason from Houston: I trust that someone can just pick a particular Kevin Nutt show for me.
	4:07pm Jason from Houston: Well now...
	4:07pm listener Scott: I think the tougher question is whether anyone has standing to challenge your Last Will and Playlist as having been assembled under undue influence.
	4:07pm chris in the redwoods: oooo, great call, Jason. would love that. :)
	4:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Monica and following!
	4:08pm anne: what a great idea, Monica. WAR-don't let no one get you down, Earth Wind and Fire - keep your head to the sky, Stevie Wonder - As
	4:09pm Bread and Jam for Frances: There’s also that documentary Alive Inside. Everyone should make an alive inside playlist
	4:09pm Jason from Houston: Seriously. Just an hour of gospel 45s. Make sure the Southern Clouds of Joy is in there. If you can find one or two of them.
	4:09pm coelacanth∅: it's a funny concept, that anyone will give a shit enough to find out what my final playlist contains ... but how 'bout "we'll meet again" by the ink spots
	4:09pm PaulRobeson1922: @Chris in the Redwoods @4:07: Five To One, baby
	4:10pm knundrum500: No one like the usb in the headstone idea
	4:11pm Pax: @Monica: right now I'm texting from a DnD while having a ice coffee, and it's hotter in here than out side. bead's of sweat are rolling down my torso. Sorry about that gross description, but Man oh Man. Phew!
	4:11pm Miss G: knundrum500, if it's not already invented, I think you could make a mint with that USB in the headstone idea. . .
	4:11pm PaulRobeson1922: Clay singing…time again and again nature points out the folly of mann🎶
	4:12pm Bread and Jam for Frances: @ knundrum500 I love the USB in the headstone idea. Put them on ash urns too
	4:12pm Monica: Bread and Jam for Frances, yep... knundrum500, good idea... Hi, PLU xxoo, PaulRobeson1922 and steveo, Ken From Hyde Park, listener Scott... yes, anne, Jason f/H... Great ideas, all!
	4:12pm chiapat: Need me some babyface!
	4:12pm People Like Us: :) :) :)
	4:12pm Jason from Houston: [stares at Thunderbolt port on side of laptop, stares at knundrum500]
	4:12pm Miss G: A quick search shows that some headstones have QR codes on them, for such purposes.
	4:14pm SeattleLogan: "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young" Faron Young I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory Don't want slow walkin' or sad singin' Let 'em have a jubilee I wanna leave a lot of happy women A thinking pretty thoughts of me I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory I got a hot-rod car and a cowboy suit And I really do get around I got a little black book and the gals look cute And I know the name of every spot in town I wanna find 'em, fool 'em, leave 'em And let 'em do the same to me I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory ...
	4:14pm Monica: yaaasss, chiapet!...PLU - alright!!!...
	4:14pm joe mulligan: ugh QR codes on headstones. so practical yet somehow also a little off putting. i'm guessing not to far ahead the geolocation of grave sites will be able to tell your phones. a convo for mark hurst's show
	4:16pm Jason from Houston: When one of my photography mentors was put in the ground, we listened to some of his recordings (blasted from his car stereo) from Fort Worth blues clubs. Perfect graveside experience.
	4:16pm Bread and Jam for Frances: some say if you go to the Steinway family mausoleum in greenwood cemetery, you can hear the scratching of strings…
	4:16pm SeattleLogan: Bury Me Beneath the Willow Emmylou Harris My heart is sad, and I am lonely For the only one I love When shall I see him, oh, no, never 'Til we meet in heaven above Oh, bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he will know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me
	4:17pm dreamyandseedy: there's a song by Funkadelic called March to the Witch's Castle which is so haunting and beautiful, i've always found it impossible to fit into a playlist. and on the opposite end of the spectrum, Loving Arms by Junie is so glorious that it's also not-playlistable. so i guess those 2 might work as "final songs".
	4:18pm Monica: there you go, SeattleLogan and dreamyandseedy:)
	4:18pm coelacanth∅: "drifting" (Jimi)
	4:19pm Brian in UK: You cookin' Monica.
	4:20pm Miss G: Just realized, I should highlight two songs on my phone, for that inevitable day. Thank you DJ Monica!
	4:20pm Monica: yo yo yo, Brian in UK!
	4:21pm dreamyandseedy: now that i think more about it, it could be a playlist of all the songs i could never fit into a playlist? wrap up those loose ends lol
	4:21pm Pax: Okay, I left d&d and now I'm on my way to the nearest bus stop.
	4:21pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Definitely my favorite Bond song!
	4:22pm HyperDose: I love Adele so much 😭
	4:22pm Monica: Daybreak, just Daybreak and Hyperdose - I'm late to it.
	4:24pm Bread and Jam for Frances: love her voice. Her playing daydreamer on Jools Holland still destroys me
	4:24pm HyperDose: Adele sang my favorite Bond song and Roger Moore was my favorite Bond (yes I love Sir Connery and he is my 2nd)
	4:24pm People Like Us: The James Bond sound is really quite something
	4:24pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Monica, Never too late! If only they had made this Daniel Craig’s actual last bond film it was a good send off.
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: sounds like the strings part from an elo song
	4:25pm HyperDose: Yeah coel, the mix on that is insane. A must-listen in lossless
	4:26pm foreign_listener_k: I like Bond theme music, especially dramatic Bond theme music
	4:26pm Bread and Jam for Frances: no no no challenge it
	4:27pm Bread and Jam for Frances: it’s totally worth it Natalie
	4:28pm Pax: @ hyperdose: I just happened to be standing at a bus stop that's right near where the former Showplace used to be. And guess what the sign that used to be there for it, "It's Gone!" So if you ever wanted to get it, 'It's Too Late Now!,
	4:28pm joe mulligan: a friend of mine has a band called the Sean Connories. they often play together wtih Bond Girl: www.facebook.com...
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: HyperD there's a world of soundtrack music that's off my radar. i guess that caregiver song's another one? that one's amazing!
	4:31pm Michael 98145: Fav Bond Song: You Only Live Twice
	4:32pm PaulRobeson1922: Oh! my love is like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June: O my luve's like a melody, That's sweetly play'd in tune. So fare thee well, my bonnie lass, So deep in love am I! & I will love thee still, my dear, Till all the seas gang dry Till a' the seas gang dry, my loVe 🎶 & the rocks melt with the sun: And I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run🎶 Oh! I don’t know, it must have been the roses…
	4:34pm HyperDose: @Pax There used to be a party store that had a great Halloween selection nearby. Is the Go Go bar they shared the name with still there, or is that gone too? The studio just had the logo on the back door.
	4:35pm Pax: Hold on hyper, bus is coming I got to deal with that first.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1922: Oh jeez!! Last playlist? 5 to 1 baby
	4:38pm coelacanth∅: just put an old battery-powered cassette player on your (hopefully made of solid dark chocolate) tombstone. when it's done (both the cassette player and the chocolate) it's done.
	4:38pm Zipperhead7: Oh my. Was driving around and lo and behold, there was Milton Brunson and the Tommys. Holy Ghost Power! Gospel is America's great overlooked genre. As Vic Broughton wrote, "For an outsider coming upon the dramatic fervor of gospel unprepared, the disturbance can be utterly overwhelming. Repellent even. 'There's something about the gospel blues,' said Sister Rosetta Tharpe to author Tony Heilbut, 'that's so deep the world can't stand it.'”
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Far as I can see - not making a Format Retrocompatible is Bad Engineering. You know it's Built In Obsolescence to make us pay to buy everything all over again every two years (say). Not because novel iterations are necessary &/or an actual improvement that merits total restructuring of the field...
	4:39pm chiapat: We need to counterbalance Adele with Lisa Stansfield!
	4:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Also: Bill Withers For President
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: (dead prez?)
	4:41pm Monica: welcome and yes, Zipperhead7!
	4:41pm Parq: I have said elsewhere that, when I die, I want a good piano player to play Chopin's Funeral March, a nice, sedate, un-cornball version. That'll do me fine.
	4:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Gerrymandering: Candidates choosing Voters rather than other way around ...likewise - Tech creating Needs rather than Needs being met by Tech... As Marx said - you never quite finally get the carrot on the stick...
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1922: You know, you must take a look at the new land The swimming pool and the teeth of your friend The dirt in my hand
	4:44pm Michael 98145: shellac is still playable
	4:44pm coelacanth∅: i just hope somebody has the good sense to take my vehicle to a state that isn't quite as much enslaved to the death industry pigs, and have it alkaline hydrolysised
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1922: Baby, baby, it’s been a long time
	4:45pm rich the greeb: This is a beautiful sad song
	4:47pm Monica: yes indeed, rich the greeb... hard to find, ripped it from a cassette many moons ago.
	4:47pm Zipperhead7: Monica -- Ms. Zip and I used to listen to you all the time via the web when we lived in Illinois. You and Doug Schulkind were our faves. We even had one of your baseball cards, and I still have the wonderful Big Band Cavalcade premium CD from 2004!
	4:48pm Monica: Zipperhead7 - oh, wow! thx:)
	4:49pm Brian in UK: Ofcourse Monica used to follow Doug on Friday mornings
	4:49pm ?: i "like" that answer parq
	4:51pm Bimbus Bambus: This Terence Etc song is a bit of a revelation
	4:52pm Monica: likewise, Bimbus Bambus... hello "?"
	4:52pm Jason from Houston: OH SHOOOOOOOT
	4:52pm ?: my play list would involve mozart's solemn vespers, irish folk tunes, and all the maddy prior the dj can fit
	4:55pm wind: Hello. I very much enjoyed the show! Ty so very much!
	4:55pm Pax: Sorry for the wait hyper. Just got off the bus. Okay. Across the street is the Salem plaza, I didn't see any such store there. I'm thinking that the pandemic has probably nocked it out of business a few years back. And as for the back door of the Showplace I couldn't say because I hadn't been back there to see. So it's possible that sign could still be there. All I know is that the big fluorescent sign is gone.
	4:56pm Handy Haversack: Hello there, Monica and all the Monicans!
	4:57pm Monica: Handy Haversack in the house.. and wind too!
	👻 4:58pm doctorjazz: Love Dinah!
	4:59pm wind: Handy I salut you!
	4:59pm dale: hey now. i wonder how tall tammy's hair was on that album cover?
	4:59pm JohnEBGood: Thanks for the classics Monica 🙂
	4:59pm Zipperhead7: OMG my two favorite singers in the world, George Jones and Dinah Washington, back to back. I may faint. Love you, Monica!!!
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♍︎Virgo, Year of Wood 🐀Rat Dinah Washington Birth name: Ruth Lee Jones Born: August 29, 1924, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, U.S. Died : December 14, 1963 Origin: Chicago, Illinois, U.S.
	5:00pm ?: i know, DJ, i prefer her singing to the "others", oh and Dakota staton
	5:00pm Listening Out There: Gasp! It's the One & Only Monica...
	5:02pm Miss G: What a lovely set, thank you Monica
	5:02pm kwatts: Miss D, mm-hmm.
	5:03pm dale: i'd like to be composted.
	5:03pm PaulRobeson1922: How about — “There's a Man Goin' Round Takin' Names” by Paul Robeson? youtu.be... There are better sounding recordings but not easy to find quickly
	5:03pm wind: Thank you One and Only Monica:)
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They press your ashes in vinyl even. dale absolutely. Feeding a nice native environmentally beneficial fruit-bearing tree. People could actually consume you...
	5:04pm wind: Dale me too i'd like to be composted too!
	5:04pm swivs: Hey Monica! I love that concept. I figure the mini-documentary will replace the tombstone eventually. I got the video part covered if you wanna curate the playlists. It's a dead industry.
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then in ~4 billion years our Sun goes red giant & expands past the orbit of Earth anyhow...
	5:05pm PaulRobeson1922: The WAKE & Bake Memorial Seed Free Compost Pile- let’s make it happen people!
	5:06pm Bread and Jam for Frances: ooh the original ska tide
	5:06pm Zipperhead7: When Ms. Zip got ALS, we went through our thousands of albums and CDs one by one. Every time she liked an album, she's ding like Hector Salamanca and I'd set it aside. Then we went through those albums and she'd ding when I named a song she liked. We ended up with a 2-CD compilation. She had quite a sense of humor -- closing track was "Dowm in the Ground Where the Dead Men Go" by the Pogues. A lot of those tracks we discovered through Monica and Doug.
	5:07pm Monica: welcome, dale, JohnEBGood, Listening Out There, kwatts, and swivs!
	5:07pm ranjit: the violin in this tide demo is almost raincoats levels of wild
	5:07pm officina: Another wonderful fill in, Monica. Any chance you're back on the new schedule?
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 Zipperhead7
	5:08pm love2laf: What a fantastic memory to share @Zipperhead7, it's those times together that remind us of the love in our life.
	5:08pm Listener Scott: Aww, that's a sad/sweet story @Zipperhead7, thanks for that.
	5:09pm Bread and Jam for Frances: Such a tender memory Zipperhead7
	5:09pm Handy Haversack: This song is catchy -- I can see how it might become quite popular with the rekkid-buying public! OK, I mixed us up a couple of Hellmouths (after I dress for the occasion!), and we're heading down to the pond-side gazebo for a bit. Might be able to hear the tunes from there. Sounding great, Monica!
	5:09pm wind: Wow zipperhead7 what a story! Lol :D
	5:11pm Monica: Listener Scott and Zipperhead7- agree... officina, will continue to do fill-ins:)... so tru, ranjit!
	5:12pm Rich in Washington: That's something, Zipperhead7! Thank you for sharing that. Hugs to you!
	5:13pm Monica: hey there, Rich in Washington.
	5:14pm Brian in UK: Thanks to John Peel for promoting Bridget at the time.
	5:15pm PaulRobeson1922: @Wind: The Wake Memorial Compost Pile will be big enough for all the GListeners (somewhere in South Jersey?) and the sum of our whole is exponentially greater than our parts
	5:16pm Stanley: Texas Lonesome Star shine on
	5:17pm SamTheRam: Sweet Roxy!!!
	5:18pm wind: Paul Robeson1922 poetry
	5:18pm ncjay: Looking forward to the Roxy Music 50 review, Monica :)
	5:18pm JR HTX: Hey Monica, great show, great song. Roxy Music is doing a 50th Anniv tour...can't wait to see it!!!!
	5:18pm ?: well, i miss all you people. depression can affect all people in different ways; i had no care or concern to listen to the station again, but, well... Lachaim
	5:20pm Monica: totally, SamThe Ram...ncjay - yes!... JR HTX - alright!!! hope you feel better ?
	5:21pm Franco Twinkie: Ah, the majestic Roxy Music's American fantasy. He Monica, I love what I've been hearing!
	5:21pm PuraVida: Great selection of music today Monica. Have been listening but this is my first post during your show.
	5:22pm Jason from Houston: Two seconds of hearing Trigger is recognizable.
	5:23pm ncjay: i very clearly remember buying the import of the first Roxy Music album as soon as it came out at our local Discount records...taking it out to the car and opening up and saying....wow, these guys are doing something really different! Hope it sounds as good as it looks! And i've been a fan for fifty years since....
	👻 5:23pm doctorjazz: Always great to catch Monica on the air!
	5:23pm ncjay: and i don't remember all that much very clearly from 50 years ago!
	5:23pm wind: PuraVida recognize:)
	5:24pm SamTheRam: Very special set, thank you Monica
	5:24pm Monica: many thx, PuraVida... and hell yeah, Franco Twinkie!
	5:26pm Miss G: I imagine that Tami Neilson & Willie Nelson song will become quite beloved. Some communities have had so much loss these past years.
	5:28pm waters7: Oh Pearly shells on the ocean. or Yellow Moon. Makes me so happy.
	5:28pm PuraVida: TURN IT UP
	5:31pm Miss G: Yes I saw an unboxing video of the Blondie box set and was drooling.
	5:31pm ncjay: front row seat! awesome!!
	5:31pm ncjay: oh goodness, this artist and title
	5:32pm PuraVida: Whew I thought it was just me and the weed...
	5:32pm Miss G: Yes ncjay, I'm having laptop issues and I thought my screen had gone insane again.
	5:32pm joe mulligan: apparently it's Four Tet?
	5:33pm Jason from Houston: ꒰ ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ ꒱.*˚‧
	5:34pm Pax: Back at home in my crappy but cozy little studio apartment cranking the AC. Was trying to catch up on the chat and see there's this concept of having one's ashes pressed into vinyl records if i got it right. I like that concept a lot. would mind having my ashes pressed into records by artists of my pick if i could. Just one question, do you think anyone buy records with the ashes of deceased people pressed into them? I mean would you? And don't forget, in time those records would probably get thrown away in the garbage which means you would wind up in a landfill. So if you didn't want that to happen would you still want your ashes pressed into vinyl records?
	5:34pm ncjay: yep, easy to find with a search on Discogs! www.discogs.com...
	5:34pm JR HTX: So glad to hear you're going to Roxy Music. I'm in Houston, they are playing Austin and Dallas....I'm going to both!! Love Roxy Music
	5:34pm Colleen: Dig it
	5:34pm queems: finally a god use for windings
	5:35pm queems: *good but idk maybe god too
	5:36pm PuraVida: The Pres Hall Guys have never been mixed like this before....
	5:36pm bbob: Definitely want Float On by the Floaters on my Final Playlist. Video too if possible! Cancer! And my name is Larry!
	5:37pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Roxy Music only once. It was when they were touring Manifesto in 1979. I walked to the show. It was at The Pasadena Civic Auditorium.
	5:37pm Monica: hi colleen, queems, and bbob!
	5:37pm HyperDose: Clicky starred that "⣎⡇ꉺლ༽இ•̛)ྀ◞ ༎ຶ ༽ৣৢ؞ৢ؞ؖ ꉺლ" track to see what it would look like in the favorites list. Didn't disappoint.
	5:38pm radioronan: Always great to catch your fill-ins, Monica. And it thrills, me - to hear, you - so excited to see Roxy Music. Enjoy!! Thank you!
	5:39pm wind: Not me Pax. I meant composting my body in to the soil.
	5:41pm Monica: thank you, radioronan:)
	5:42pm joe mulligan: I bartended at a Philly club called Bassline (Blondie's by day) in 1990 and Josh Wink the DJ played Treat'em right every night!
	5:43pm chresti: Hi Monica! Nice to hear you!
	5:43pm Listener Scott: If anyone genuinely wants a Will Package that incorporates a playlist, as a lawyer who does a lot of Trusts and Estates I'd be happy to come up with a solution
	5:44pm harold: "Kids on St. James between Gates and Greene", Clinton Hill represent!
	5:45pm Monica: I can vouch for Listener Scott for sure!... Hello, chresti and harold!!!
	5:46pm Pax: @wind: then I don't know what the heck I read. After a while I kind of get cross-eyed and vision gets blurry reading on my cell phone screen.
	5:46pm wind: I hear you Pax!
	5:46pm wind: What a great show!!!
	5:47pm Zipperhead7: Jeezits this is such a terrific show. Vintage Monica!
	5:47pm ranjit: I agree with wind!
	5:47pm Miss G: Wow this set has roused me from bed with an ice pack on my head. Ready to face the dinnertime!
	5:49pm Monica: Thank you all for coming by today! It s been a blast. Dunno when I'll be back but stay tuned. Olivia and Radio Ravioli will return next week! And be sure to stay tuned for Scott Williams filling in for Techtonic tonight!
	5:49pm Mike W.: Swamp Children are the greatest underrated Factory group
	5:50pm ncjay: it's been an extra-great show this afternoon, Monica! Thanks so much --- and have a great time at MSG in two weeks for sure!
	5:50pm Pax: @ Hyper: don't know if you seen my answer to your question at 4:55. Just a simple confirmation of yay or nay will suffice.
	5:51pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Monica. You got me out of the office chair and sock dancing in front of the screen.
	5:52pm HyperDose: Yes I did Pax. Got preoccupied with the feline. I remember the pizza place (not sure if it was the same name). Used to make the drive from Maplewood when I was interning. Don't miss the commute!
	5:54pm Pax: enjoyed your fill in Monica. Be looking out for whenever you do another fill in. TY
	5:54pm Krys O: Thanks, Monica! Have a great time at the Roxy Music concert.
	5:55pm Monica: agree, mike w.
	5:55pm Miss G: Thank you DJ Monica for a great show. Have a good evening, all! OH! The most important part -- have a blast at the Roxy Music! So happy for you (and your outfit!)
	5:55pm wind: Franco!!!lol
	5:55pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Monica! Always so good to hear you. Later on, all!
	5:57pm Paddy’s danties: Absolutely fantastic show, Monica!
	5:57pm dreamyandseedy: thanks Monica!
	5:58pm JohnEBGood: Thanks Mo!. Enjoy the show!!

	3:12pm Miss G: And in the background I'm watching Anita O'Day sing at Newport in the most gorgeous black hat with feathers.
	3:12pm Parq: Wow, it's hot out. Glad to be in AC with Monica's show.
	3:14pm listener james from westwood: Somehow didn't have this Caretaker album. Fixed. Thanks, Bandcamp, for being a zillion times easier to use than iTunes!
	3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 AnitaO'Day
	3:15pm joe mulligan: the Caretaker has been a top 5 seller at Boomkat for years.. like Dark Side of the Moon top selling album status
	3:16pm Glistener MW: Major Force!!! ⭐️ amazing!
	👻 3:18pm doctorjazz: Hi Monica and you all out there!
	3:18pm Miss G: These two photos from an article about The Caretaker Challenge has become my meme to send to friends when I'm having a day like today. media.npr.org...
	3:19pm Monica: Yo, Parq, RevRab, joe mulligan, Glistener MW, and doctorjazz!
	3:20pm Carmichael: Hay Zeus Christo, The temp on Labor Day will be 111 degrees here on the valley floor.

	3:22pm Richy4619: Just wish I could swap out a joint in place of that cigarette
	3:23pm listener Scott: first time listening to Monica (or any WFMU deejay) on my phone walking around the city. New unlimited data plan totally opens up FMU listening horizons.
	3:24pm coelacanth∅: i'll take it if it's a marlboro, and i got some herb for you but you gotta roll it
	3:24pm chris in the redwoods: freeform freedom, listener Scott!
	3:25pm waters7: I'm feeling a little low here so am so grateful to have Monica as a tonic!
	3:26pm Monica: hey there, Richy4619, listener Scott, and waters7!
	3:27pm Michael 98145: @carm ... that be a BIT warm. sorry.
	3:27pm Gaylord Fields: Hi, Monica! If I were at the beach instead of where I am, which is diligently working from home, of course, I’d call this the perfect soundtrack for relaxing as the surf gently rolls in. But, as I want to stress, I’m at home doing my work.
	3:29pm Monica: GAYLORD!!! Always a red letter day when I know you're tuned in xxoo
	3:30pm HyperDose: I feel the love in the air
	3:30pm efd: and it's always a red-letter day when Monica is on the air! So that makes two red letters for today, by my count!
	3:31pm Pete L: good dj work. Thanks.
	3:31pm Gaylord Fields: xxoo Monica! @listener Scott: I just signed on to an unlimited data plan myself, for the same reason! Keep on roamin’ freeform style!
	3:31pm Michael 98145: Well that was a fine start
	3:32pm HyperDose: A lot of those unlimited plans come with tethering so you can use your phone as a mobile hotspot for a laptop or whatever. More Freeform baby!
	3:32pm Howard & the Cats: Yay Monica!!!
	3:32pm Stanley: Wait, I'm missing this? No way José!
	3:33pm Jason Lee: Tears of a clown…
	3:38pm Michael 98145: thot that was Regina at first ...
	3:39pm Gaylord Fields: @HyperDose: Yep, that hotspot is how I’m able to listen to Monica here on the bea… er, in my home office while I work. (Excuse me while I knock some of the sand out of my reef runners that I happen to wear in my home office.)
	3:39pm Monica: EFD in the place to be! Along with HyperDose, Pete L, Howard & the Cats, Stanley, and Jason Lee!
	3:39pm indoor shrimp: it does sound like a regina a bit! hello everyone!
	3:40pm joe mulligan: oh wow thanks so much for telling us the Lullaby of the Leaves was the original track sampled by the Caretaker. for years I've been searching. and I also discovered the song is more special to me because my dad's cousin Gerry also recorded the song in 1952
	3:44pm Phillippe: Yay, Monica!
	3:45pm Monica: hello indoor shrimp and Phillippe!
	3:47pm love2laf: Nice to be back online after 2 hours of tech checking the line. Thank you Monica, the great tunes are helping with this tech created & weather created, headache.
	3:48pm Mr C: Sounding good like a rocking jock should!
	3:50pm upstatesean: ‘Sup Monica, everyone
	3:51pm Michael 98145: sometimes the robots need a reminder ...
	3:53pm G: Classic Monica, as always. Kinda snowed under with work and houseguest stuff since 5:15am, so not much time to comment... But listening...
	3:55pm Monica: MR C - whee and THX!!!!.... love2laf, upstatesean, and G - great to have you here.
	3:58pm Pax: Gaylord@3:39 - also be sure to get any of little tiny hermit crabs that live in those pooka shells that may have gotten mixed in the sand. You wouldn't want any of them crawling around in your.. ahem "office"!
	3:59pm Monica: hello, Pax!
	4:01pm Miss G: gosh, I recognize that Skyy "First Time Around" from the clubs, that brought me back.
	4:02pm chris in the redwoods: banjoin' and fiddlin' at warp 10. dig!
	4:03pm Michael 98145: Fiddle Trek
	4:03pm Parq: Hillbillies in Space! Now that would have made a good episode, better than the "Irish Travelers in Space" episode that "Next Gen" did.
	4:05pm Bread and Jam for Frances: a death playlist
	4:05pm knundrum500: Easy, usb imbedded in the headstone
	4:06pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi Hi!
	4:06pm love2laf: John Prine, Please Don't Bury Me, just to break the ice with some tasteless humour.
	4:06pm Bread and Jam for Frances: Joy to hear you, Monica.
	4:06pm Michael 98145: plug and play!
	4:06pm steveo: ℍ𝔼𝕃𝕃𝕆 𝕄𝕆ℕ𝕀ℂ𝔸
	4:06pm joe mulligan: I made one of those lists, but now I just call it my "earworm" songs that I really enjoy. open.spotify.com...
	4:06pm People Like Us: hello!
	4:07pm chris in the redwoods: is there a song entitled, "enough about me, start drinking already", or, "i croaked but you're still around, so go live life, damnit"?
	4:07pm knundrum500: Somehow waterproof? Like a jump drive in a carved pocket of the headstone, and people can come visit and download the playlist somehow?
	4:07pm Jason from Houston: I trust that someone can just pick a particular Kevin Nutt show for me.
	4:07pm Jason from Houston: Well now...
	4:07pm listener Scott: I think the tougher question is whether anyone has standing to challenge your Last Will and Playlist as having been assembled under undue influence.
	4:07pm chris in the redwoods: oooo, great call, Jason. would love that. :)
	4:08pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Monica and following!
	4:08pm anne: what a great idea, Monica. WAR-don't let no one get you down, Earth Wind and Fire - keep your head to the sky, Stevie Wonder - As
	4:09pm Bread and Jam for Frances: There’s also that documentary Alive Inside. Everyone should make an alive inside playlist
	4:09pm Jason from Houston: Seriously. Just an hour of gospel 45s. Make sure the Southern Clouds of Joy is in there. If you can find one or two of them.
	4:09pm coelacanth∅: it's a funny concept, that anyone will give a shit enough to find out what my final playlist contains ... but how 'bout "we'll meet again" by the ink spots
	4:09pm PaulRobeson1922: @Chris in the Redwoods @4:07: Five To One, baby
	4:10pm knundrum500: No one like the usb in the headstone idea
	4:11pm Pax: @Monica: right now I'm texting from a DnD while having a ice coffee, and it's hotter in here than out side. bead's of sweat are rolling down my torso. Sorry about that gross description, but Man oh Man. Phew!
	4:11pm Miss G: knundrum500, if it's not already invented, I think you could make a mint with that USB in the headstone idea. . .
	4:11pm PaulRobeson1922: Clay singing…time again and again nature points out the folly of mann🎶
	4:12pm Bread and Jam for Frances: @ knundrum500 I love the USB in the headstone idea. Put them on ash urns too
	4:12pm Monica: Bread and Jam for Frances, yep... knundrum500, good idea... Hi, PLU xxoo, PaulRobeson1922 and steveo, Ken From Hyde Park, listener Scott... yes, anne, Jason f/H... Great ideas, all!
	4:12pm chiapat: Need me some babyface!
	4:12pm People Like Us: :) :) :)
	4:12pm Jason from Houston: [stares at Thunderbolt port on side of laptop, stares at knundrum500]
	4:12pm Miss G: A quick search shows that some headstones have QR codes on them, for such purposes.
	4:14pm SeattleLogan: "Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young" Faron Young I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory Don't want slow walkin' or sad singin' Let 'em have a jubilee I wanna leave a lot of happy women A thinking pretty thoughts of me I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory I got a hot-rod car and a cowboy suit And I really do get around I got a little black book and the gals look cute And I know the name of every spot in town I wanna find 'em, fool 'em, leave 'em And let 'em do the same to me I wanna live fast, love hard, die young And leave a beautiful memory ...
	4:14pm Monica: yaaasss, chiapet!...PLU - alright!!!...
	4:14pm joe mulligan: ugh QR codes on headstones. so practical yet somehow also a little off putting. i'm guessing not to far ahead the geolocation of grave sites will be able to tell your phones. a convo for mark hurst's show
	4:16pm Jason from Houston: When one of my photography mentors was put in the ground, we listened to some of his recordings (blasted from his car stereo) from Fort Worth blues clubs. Perfect graveside experience.
	4:16pm Bread and Jam for Frances: some say if you go to the Steinway family mausoleum in greenwood cemetery, you can hear the scratching of strings…
	4:16pm SeattleLogan: Bury Me Beneath the Willow Emmylou Harris My heart is sad, and I am lonely For the only one I love When shall I see him, oh, no, never 'Til we meet in heaven above Oh, bury me beneath the willow Under the weeping willow tree So he will know where I am sleeping And perhaps he'll weep for me
	4:17pm dreamyandseedy: there's a song by Funkadelic called March to the Witch's Castle which is so haunting and beautiful, i've always found it impossible to fit into a playlist. and on the opposite end of the spectrum, Loving Arms by Junie is so glorious that it's also not-playlistable. so i guess those 2 might work as "final songs".
	4:18pm Monica: there you go, SeattleLogan and dreamyandseedy:)
	4:18pm coelacanth∅: "drifting" (Jimi)
	4:19pm Brian in UK: You cookin' Monica.
	4:20pm Miss G: Just realized, I should highlight two songs on my phone, for that inevitable day. Thank you DJ Monica!
	4:20pm Monica: yo yo yo, Brian in UK!
	4:21pm dreamyandseedy: now that i think more about it, it could be a playlist of all the songs i could never fit into a playlist? wrap up those loose ends lol
	4:21pm Pax: Okay, I left d&d and now I'm on my way to the nearest bus stop.
	4:21pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Definitely my favorite Bond song!
	4:22pm HyperDose: I love Adele so much 😭
	4:22pm Monica: Daybreak, just Daybreak and Hyperdose - I'm late to it.
	4:24pm Bread and Jam for Frances: love her voice. Her playing daydreamer on Jools Holland still destroys me
	4:24pm HyperDose: Adele sang my favorite Bond song and Roger Moore was my favorite Bond (yes I love Sir Connery and he is my 2nd)
	4:24pm People Like Us: The James Bond sound is really quite something
	4:24pm Daybreak, just Daybreak: Monica, Never too late! If only they had made this Daniel Craig’s actual last bond film it was a good send off.
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: sounds like the strings part from an elo song
	4:25pm HyperDose: Yeah coel, the mix on that is insane. A must-listen in lossless
	4:26pm foreign_listener_k: I like Bond theme music, especially dramatic Bond theme music
	4:26pm Bread and Jam for Frances: no no no challenge it
	4:27pm Bread and Jam for Frances: it’s totally worth it Natalie
	4:28pm Pax: @ hyperdose: I just happened to be standing at a bus stop that's right near where the former Showplace used to be. And guess what the sign that used to be there for it, "It's Gone!" So if you ever wanted to get it, 'It's Too Late Now!,
	4:28pm joe mulligan: a friend of mine has a band called the Sean Connories. they often play together wtih Bond Girl: www.facebook.com...
	4:30pm coelacanth∅: HyperD there's a world of soundtrack music that's off my radar. i guess that caregiver song's another one? that one's amazing!
	4:31pm Michael 98145: Fav Bond Song: You Only Live Twice
	4:32pm PaulRobeson1922: Oh! my love is like a red, red rose, That's newly sprung in June: O my luve's like a melody, That's sweetly play'd in tune. So fare thee well, my bonnie lass, So deep in love am I! & I will love thee still, my dear, Till all the seas gang dry Till a' the seas gang dry, my loVe 🎶 & the rocks melt with the sun: And I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run🎶 Oh! I don’t know, it must have been the roses…
	4:34pm HyperDose: @Pax There used to be a party store that had a great Halloween selection nearby. Is the Go Go bar they shared the name with still there, or is that gone too? The studio just had the logo on the back door.
	4:35pm Pax: Hold on hyper, bus is coming I got to deal with that first.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1922: Oh jeez!! Last playlist? 5 to 1 baby
	4:38pm coelacanth∅: just put an old battery-powered cassette player on your (hopefully made of solid dark chocolate) tombstone. when it's done (both the cassette player and the chocolate) it's done.
	4:38pm Zipperhead7: Oh my. Was driving around and lo and behold, there was Milton Brunson and the Tommys. Holy Ghost Power! Gospel is America's great overlooked genre. As Vic Broughton wrote, "For an outsider coming upon the dramatic fervor of gospel unprepared, the disturbance can be utterly overwhelming. Repellent even. 'There's something about the gospel blues,' said Sister Rosetta Tharpe to author Tony Heilbut, 'that's so deep the world can't stand it.'”
	4:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Far as I can see - not making a Format Retrocompatible is Bad Engineering. You know it's Built In Obsolescence to make us pay to buy everything all over again every two years (say). Not because novel iterations are necessary &/or an actual improvement that merits total restructuring of the field...
	4:39pm chiapat: We need to counterbalance Adele with Lisa Stansfield!
	4:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Also: Bill Withers For President
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: (dead prez?)
	4:41pm Monica: welcome and yes, Zipperhead7!
	4:41pm Parq: I have said elsewhere that, when I die, I want a good piano player to play Chopin's Funeral March, a nice, sedate, un-cornball version. That'll do me fine.
	4:43pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's like Gerrymandering: Candidates choosing Voters rather than other way around ...likewise - Tech creating Needs rather than Needs being met by Tech... As Marx said - you never quite finally get the carrot on the stick...
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1922: You know, you must take a look at the new land The swimming pool and the teeth of your friend The dirt in my hand
	4:44pm Michael 98145: shellac is still playable
	4:44pm coelacanth∅: i just hope somebody has the good sense to take my vehicle to a state that isn't quite as much enslaved to the death industry pigs, and have it alkaline hydrolysised
	4:44pm PaulRobeson1922: Baby, baby, it’s been a long time
	4:45pm rich the greeb: This is a beautiful sad song
	4:47pm Monica: yes indeed, rich the greeb... hard to find, ripped it from a cassette many moons ago.
	4:47pm Zipperhead7: Monica -- Ms. Zip and I used to listen to you all the time via the web when we lived in Illinois. You and Doug Schulkind were our faves. We even had one of your baseball cards, and I still have the wonderful Big Band Cavalcade premium CD from 2004!
	4:48pm Monica: Zipperhead7 - oh, wow! thx:)
	4:49pm Brian in UK: Ofcourse Monica used to follow Doug on Friday mornings

	4:51pm Bimbus Bambus: This Terence Etc song is a bit of a revelation
	4:52pm Monica: likewise, Bimbus Bambus... hello "?"
	4:52pm Jason from Houston: OH SHOOOOOOOT
	4:52pm ?: my play list would involve mozart's solemn vespers, irish folk tunes, and all the maddy prior the dj can fit
	4:55pm wind: Hello. I very much enjoyed the show! Ty so very much!
	4:55pm Pax: Sorry for the wait hyper. Just got off the bus. Okay. Across the street is the Salem plaza, I didn't see any such store there. I'm thinking that the pandemic has probably nocked it out of business a few years back. And as for the back door of the Showplace I couldn't say because I hadn't been back there to see. So it's possible that sign could still be there. All I know is that the big fluorescent sign is gone.
	4:56pm Handy Haversack: Hello there, Monica and all the Monicans!
	4:57pm Monica: Handy Haversack in the house.. and wind too!
	👻 4:58pm doctorjazz: Love Dinah!
	4:59pm wind: Handy I salut you!
	4:59pm dale: hey now. i wonder how tall tammy's hair was on that album cover?
	4:59pm JohnEBGood: Thanks for the classics Monica 🙂
	4:59pm Zipperhead7: OMG my two favorite singers in the world, George Jones and Dinah Washington, back to back. I may faint. Love you, Monica!!!
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ⦿Sun in ♍︎Virgo, Year of Wood 🐀Rat Dinah Washington Birth name: Ruth Lee Jones Born: August 29, 1924, Tuscaloosa, Alabama, U.S. Died : December 14, 1963 Origin: Chicago, Illinois, U.S.

	5:02pm Miss G: What a lovely set, thank you Monica
	5:02pm kwatts: Miss D, mm-hmm.
	5:03pm dale: i'd like to be composted.
	5:03pm PaulRobeson1922: How about — “There's a Man Goin' Round Takin' Names” by Paul Robeson? youtu.be... There are better sounding recordings but not easy to find quickly
	5:03pm wind: Thank you One and Only Monica:)
	5:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: They press your ashes in vinyl even. dale absolutely. Feeding a nice native environmentally beneficial fruit-bearing tree. People could actually consume you...
	5:04pm wind: Dale me too i'd like to be composted too!
	5:04pm swivs: Hey Monica! I love that concept. I figure the mini-documentary will replace the tombstone eventually. I got the video part covered if you wanna curate the playlists. It's a dead industry.
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...then in ~4 billion years our Sun goes red giant & expands past the orbit of Earth anyhow...
	5:05pm PaulRobeson1922: The WAKE & Bake Memorial Seed Free Compost Pile- let’s make it happen people!
	5:06pm Bread and Jam for Frances: ooh the original ska tide
	5:06pm Zipperhead7: When Ms. Zip got ALS, we went through our thousands of albums and CDs one by one. Every time she liked an album, she's ding like Hector Salamanca and I'd set it aside. Then we went through those albums and she'd ding when I named a song she liked. We ended up with a 2-CD compilation. She had quite a sense of humor -- closing track was "Dowm in the Ground Where the Dead Men Go" by the Pogues. A lot of those tracks we discovered through Monica and Doug.
	5:07pm Monica: welcome, dale, JohnEBGood, Listening Out There, kwatts, and swivs!
	5:07pm ranjit: the violin in this tide demo is almost raincoats levels of wild
	5:07pm officina: Another wonderful fill in, Monica. Any chance you're back on the new schedule?
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: <3 Zipperhead7
	5:08pm love2laf: What a fantastic memory to share @Zipperhead7, it's those times together that remind us of the love in our life.
	5:08pm Listener Scott: Aww, that's a sad/sweet story @Zipperhead7, thanks for that.
	5:09pm Bread and Jam for Frances: Such a tender memory Zipperhead7
	5:09pm Handy Haversack: This song is catchy -- I can see how it might become quite popular with the rekkid-buying public! OK, I mixed us up a couple of Hellmouths (after I dress for the occasion!), and we're heading down to the pond-side gazebo for a bit. Might be able to hear the tunes from there. Sounding great, Monica!
	5:09pm wind: Wow zipperhead7 what a story! Lol :D
	5:11pm Monica: Listener Scott and Zipperhead7- agree... officina, will continue to do fill-ins:)... so tru, ranjit!
	5:12pm Rich in Washington: That's something, Zipperhead7! Thank you for sharing that. Hugs to you!

	5:14pm Brian in UK: Thanks to John Peel for promoting Bridget at the time.
	5:15pm PaulRobeson1922: @Wind: The Wake Memorial Compost Pile will be big enough for all the GListeners (somewhere in South Jersey?) and the sum of our whole is exponentially greater than our parts
	5:16pm Stanley: Texas Lonesome Star shine on
	5:17pm SamTheRam: Sweet Roxy!!!
	5:18pm wind: Paul Robeson1922 poetry

	5:21pm PuraVida: Great selection of music today Monica. Have been listening but this is my first post during your show.
	5:22pm Jason from Houston: Two seconds of hearing Trigger is recognizable.
	5:23pm ncjay: i very clearly remember buying the import of the first Roxy Music album as soon as it came out at our local Discount records...taking it out to the car and opening up and saying....wow, these guys are doing something really different! Hope it sounds as good as it looks! And i've been a fan for fifty years since....
	👻 5:23pm doctorjazz: Always great to catch Monica on the air!
	5:23pm ncjay: and i don't remember all that much very clearly from 50 years ago!
	5:23pm wind: PuraVida recognize:)

	5:24pm Monica: many thx, PuraVida... and hell yeah, Franco Twinkie!
	5:26pm Miss G: I imagine that Tami Neilson & Willie Nelson song will become quite beloved. Some communities have had so much loss these past years.
	5:28pm waters7: Oh Pearly shells on the ocean. or Yellow Moon. Makes me so happy.
	5:28pm PuraVida: TURN IT UP
	5:31pm Miss G: Yes I saw an unboxing video of the Blondie box set and was drooling.
	5:31pm ncjay: front row seat! awesome!!
	5:31pm ncjay: oh goodness, this artist and title
	5:32pm PuraVida: Whew I thought it was just me and the weed...
	5:32pm Miss G: Yes ncjay, I'm having laptop issues and I thought my screen had gone insane again.
	5:32pm joe mulligan: apparently it's Four Tet?
	5:33pm Jason from Houston: ꒰ ॢ ꈍ ◡ ꈍ ॢ ꒱.*˚‧
	5:34pm Pax: Back at home in my crappy but cozy little studio apartment cranking the AC. Was trying to catch up on the chat and see there's this concept of having one's ashes pressed into vinyl records if i got it right. I like that concept a lot. would mind having my ashes pressed into records by artists of my pick if i could. Just one question, do you think anyone buy records with the ashes of deceased people pressed into them? I mean would you? And don't forget, in time those records would probably get thrown away in the garbage which means you would wind up in a landfill. So if you didn't want that to happen would you still want your ashes pressed into vinyl records?
	5:34pm ncjay: yep, easy to find with a search on Discogs! www.discogs.com...
	5:34pm JR HTX: So glad to hear you're going to Roxy Music. I'm in Houston, they are playing Austin and Dallas....I'm going to both!! Love Roxy Music
	5:34pm Colleen: Dig it

	5:36pm bbob: Definitely want Float On by the Floaters on my Final Playlist. Video too if possible! Cancer! And my name is Larry!
	5:37pm Franco Twinkie: I saw Roxy Music only once. It was when they were touring Manifesto in 1979. I walked to the show. It was at The Pasadena Civic Auditorium.
	5:37pm Monica: hi colleen, queems, and bbob!
	5:37pm HyperDose: Clicky starred that "⣎⡇ꉺლ༽இ•̛)ྀ◞ ༎ຶ ༽ৣৢ؞ৢ؞ؖ ꉺლ" track to see what it would look like in the favorites list. Didn't disappoint.
	5:38pm radioronan: Always great to catch your fill-ins, Monica. And it thrills, me - to hear, you - so excited to see Roxy Music. Enjoy!! Thank you!
	5:39pm wind: Not me Pax. I meant composting my body in to the soil.
	5:41pm Monica: thank you, radioronan:)
	5:42pm joe mulligan: I bartended at a Philly club called Bassline (Blondie's by day) in 1990 and Josh Wink the DJ played Treat'em right every night!
	5:43pm chresti: Hi Monica! Nice to hear you!
	5:43pm Listener Scott: If anyone genuinely wants a Will Package that incorporates a playlist, as a lawyer who does a lot of Trusts and Estates I'd be happy to come up with a solution
	5:44pm harold: "Kids on St. James between Gates and Greene", Clinton Hill represent!
	5:45pm Monica: I can vouch for Listener Scott for sure!... Hello, chresti and harold!!!

	5:49pm Mike W.: Swamp Children are the greatest underrated Factory group
	5:50pm ncjay: it's been an extra-great show this afternoon, Monica! Thanks so much --- and have a great time at MSG in two weeks for sure!
	5:50pm Pax: @ Hyper: don't know if you seen my answer to your question at 4:55. Just a simple confirmation of yay or nay will suffice.
	5:51pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Monica. You got me out of the office chair and sock dancing in front of the screen.
	5:52pm HyperDose: Yes I did Pax. Got preoccupied with the feline. I remember the pizza place (not sure if it was the same name). Used to make the drive from Maplewood when I was interning. Don't miss the commute!
	5:54pm Pax: enjoyed your fill in Monica. Be looking out for whenever you do another fill in. TY
