	4:53pm MHLee: I already did Mike
	4:54pm Mike Rogers: You are giant amongst mere mortals MH Lee san!
	4:56pm Mike Rogers: I have to go to the doctor today again. Yesterday I was sort of fine. But I woke up with my right knee twice the size of my left knee. Water has accumulated! AAAARRRGGGGHHH!
	4:58pm MHLee: The Kinks have a song about water on the knee
	4:59pm Mike Rogers: God! It hurts! This crap has been going on/off since First Augut!
	4:59pm Mike Rogers: August
	5:00pm ultradamno: Mike! Neighbors!
	5:01pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! Welcome!
	5:01pm SheenaER: Hello people!!
	5:01pm Mike Rogers: Hi Sheena!!!!!
	5:03pm Mr Fab: Many happy returns Mike, and what it a year it has been. Can't imagine the Jungle Room without you. And a big YEAH for the loveable Shonen Knife, in whatever form they take.
	5:06pm Bamboo Boy: Love this banana chips song😆. Happy 1st annivarsary, Mike🎉
	5:06pm Mike Rogers: I blew it! I wanted you guys to guess.... but, oh well....
	5:08pm Mike Rogers: Listuko who was the bassist for Shonen Knife for like 13 years or so, was in a VERY well known band before Shonen Knife.
	5:09pm MHLee: I have 105 minutes before i can leave work
	5:09pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko san, the former Bassist for Shonen Knife, was in two very famous bands before Shonen Knife. Keihan Girl & Denki Candy.
	5:09pm mochy: Ms. Mike, Ms. Sheena Good morning, listeners.
	5:09pm MHLee: Sheena has the music though
	5:10pm Mike Rogers: When Litsuko was like 17 she was sort of an Idol star in Japan. She and her band were scouted by major labels.
	5:11pm ultradamno: Twist n Turn Barbie, who kind of dresses like Shonen Knife www.pinterest.com...
	5:12pm Mike Rogers: I think it was Denki Candy that played huge assed arenas (Shonen Knife doesn't do that in Japan). Shonen Knife is much more famous in the west than they are in Japan. In Japan they play 300 cap places!
	5:12pm Candy-O'67: Hey Mike, Mr. Fab, MHLee, Bamboo Boy, ultradamno!
	5:13pm ultradamno: Hiya Candy!
	5:13pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko was bound for super stardom and then just said, "I don't wanna do that!" Really!
	5:13pm Mike Rogers: She was mabye 20 years old. By the time she was 24, she is considered too old in Japan
	5:14pm Mike Rogers: Hi Candy-O'67 san!!!!
	5:14pm Bamboo Boy: Hello, Candy-O!
	5:14pm Domenic: Happy anniversary! Too bad about Litsuko... Japanese woman live a long time. 24 is still a child!
	5:15pm Candy-O'67: Just subscribed to your channel. Will watch your interview with Naoko later 😁
	5:15pm Mike Rogers: So, she became a member of Shonen Knife. You won't belive how that happened too! Incredible story!
	5:16pm Candy-O'67: I saw Shonen Knife here in Austin shortly before the pandemic. A friend of mine here who is originally from San Francisco turned me onto them.
	5:16pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko interview. This will blow your mind! www.youtube.com...
	5:16pm Candy-O'67: Cool, Mike!
	5:16pm Mike Rogers: Hi Domenic san! ohayougozaimasu!
	5:17pm mochy: マイクさん、シーナさんリスナーの皆様おはようございますこの特集ありですね。
	5:17pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! おはよございます！
	5:17pm Candy-O'67: Love this Rock n Roll T-shirt song! I think I have 300+ rock n roll T-shirts! I have a problem! Hahaha! 🤣
	5:17pm Domenic: My daughter tells me your show is the only "decent" music I listen too. Thanks for making me appear 1/100% cool
	5:18pm ultradamno: I too am mostly fond of the indecent musics
	5:18pm mochy: I've been in a mess with the house because of the electric leakage in the morning. I have to go to work.
	5:19pm Mr Fab: all the shopping mall punks have kinda ruined rock n roll t-shirts for me. Thanks a lot, posers! Wearing a Ramones shirt used to mean something. The secret handshake.
	5:21pm MHLee: @MrFab well hottopic is more likely to sell sonic screwdrivers than mallgoth now
	5:21pm ultradamno: I can remember hearing stories of Hüsker Dü, Minutemen and Die Kreuzen turning down majors cold, mostly because they knew skrewed over and marginalized they'd be
	5:22pm Mike Rogers: Domenic san! You are in the cool 1%!!!!!!
	5:22pm ultradamno: (though Hüsker Dü wound up with WB, so they may have holding out)
	5:22pm MHLee: Not sure how Nerd culture became the mall goth of the 2010s but it did
	5:22pm Candy-O'67: Love that band name the "Let's Go's"!
	5:23pm Mike Rogers: In the first days of punk, there were no T-Shirts so we made our own! Really!
	5:23pm Candy-O'67: Yep, Mike, ripped and with safety pins! 😅
	5:24pm Mr Fab: True Mike, You got out your magic marker, plain white t, and go to work. My daughter loves the Hot Topic at the very mall I used to go to when I was a kid. A mall that sure as hell wasn't selling Joy Division or Misfits shirts when mom would drag me thru it. The real-life Spicolis and Bill n Teds would kick the asses of anyone who liked "New Wave."
	5:25pm mochy: It seems that Keihan Girl will be revived a little next year.
	5:26pm ultradamno: Where I went to school even up to Dream Police, people thought Cheap Trick were punk, so even Ramones marked you as a weirdo
	5:28pm Mike Rogers: Oh, you devil you, Ultradamno san!
	5:28pm ultradamno: Of course, it was also a school named after Walter P Chrysler
	5:29pm Mike Rogers: Mr. Fab, you mean kids wear a Ramones T-Shirt but they don't listen to the Ramones??
	5:29pm MHLee: my parents were into devo in college
	5:30pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san, is that Nerd Culture?
	5:31pm Mr Fab: Yes, Mike, and not just Ramones.
	5:31pm Mike Rogers: So, Mr. Fab, maybe the T-shirt thing has come full circle. It would be cool to make your own Mozart or Beethoven T- Shirt. Rip it up and puts it back together with pins.
	5:31pm ultradamno: Never mind hot topic, you can find Ramones shirt at Wal-Mart. Though I did see a nice Chucky shirt there this morning
	5:32pm Mike Rogers: What is "The Hot Topic?"
	5:32pm ultradamno: Chain of gothy clothing stores, mostly in shopping malls
	5:32pm Mr Fab: Hot Topic is the posers' super-store.
	5:33pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san!!!! Is that true!!!!??? Keihan will be revived next year???
	5:34pm Mike Rogers: I saw a video of them playing at about a 5000 - 6000 seater in Osaka. That is amazing!
	5:34pm Bamboo Boy: Singing about bananas, Barbie, then Kitty. Love that innocent obserbation similar to my fave Johnanthan Richman's.
	5:35pm ultradamno: Speaking of Ramones twitter.com...
	5:35pm mochy: YouTube is up! I'm looking forward to it!
	5:35pm Candy-O'67: I used to like Hot Topic back in the late '90's/early 2000's when they were starting, to my knowledge. They used to have cool stuff, but then got too commercialized, for sure
	5:35pm Mike Rogers: It seems a contradiction to buy a punk shirt to me... But, I'm crazy.
	5:36pm ultradamno: From some place like those, sure, but from the band...
	5:36pm Mike Rogers: Ha! I had a guy ask me once, "Do you like Punk?" I said, "Yes!" He sad, "Like Cheap Trick and the Cars?" My eyes rolled. But I said, "Yeah!"
	5:38pm ultradamno: Wearing Ramones shirts and not knowing who they are reminds me of the post I saw the other day about Godard's death "Love Breathless and 400 Blows" I hope it was a troll.
	5:38pm Bamboo Boy: Whoa, this garage punk version of Sada Masashi's classic is so cool and ironical.
	5:38pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san! Your parents? How old are they? They must be very old..... Like me.
	5:39pm Mike Rogers: I saw early DEVO and they just blew away Mink Deville. They didn't come on the stage... The came in the auditorium back entries. People thought, "WTF?"
	5:41pm MHLee: My parents are both 60
	5:42pm Mr Fab: you're actually cool Candy-O'67, so you SHOULD buy those shirts!
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: Oh, I guess I won't ever go to a Hot Topic store. That name sounds dodgy in the first place.
	5:43pm SheenaER: I love this band especially
	5:43pm ultradamno: I saw Joan Jett blow The Police off the stage when I saw them. I also saw Graham Parker open for Cheap Trick. The audience REVILED him, which I still don't understand. He was good, I wouldn't say he blew them off the stage though.
	5:44pm Aitch: Late for the 1st birthday party, so rude! Ohayo Mike-san and gang. Really love the show, have learned so much
	5:44pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san! You are so proud of them. Because for someone their age to have liked DEVO, they were considered weirdos by most of their friends! Ha! Ha! Ha!
	5:45pm ultradamno: People had a hard time wrapping their heads around DEVO. Even Joe Walsh, who knew them from Kent, had famously no idea what to make of it when they visited him ("you guys are over my head or under it")
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: All just for you, Bamboo Boy san!
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: Sheena! What band?
	5:47pm Candy-O'67: Oh, happy birthday to your show, Mike!
	5:48pm ultradamno: It's just starting to pogo on it's own...now on to the terrible twos
	5:48pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! I had a friend in high school who absolutely loved Graham Parker!
	5:48pm Mike Rogers: Aitch san! Welcome! Have some punch!!!
	5:49pm Mike Rogers: DEVO was good until Pink Pussycat. What do you think. Mr. Fab?
	5:50pm Mike Rogers: Thank you, Candy-O'67 san!
	5:50pm ultradamno: This was right around Spitting Out Sparks, so kind of a peak time to see him too
	5:50pm MHLee: Why is it playing Jan! Something went funky in this player again
	5:51pm MHLee: This computer, man
	5:52pm Mr Fab: Nah, I liked Devo for a bit after. Different, and not quite as good, but still good. "Shout" was their jump-the-shark album for me. But then in the '90s they did a real good surfy (believe it or not) album as The Wipeouters.
	5:53pm mochy: I see, it's the 1st anniversary of mrs wfmu. Congratulations! It's already been a year.
	5:56pm ultradamno: Spitting Out Sparks is a Graham Parker album, dummy
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: Yeah. Mark Mothersbaugh once told me that "Labels want a Devo Covers album, but they don't want a Devo album." He seemed a bit down. But they were great!
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! Oh, I know that record. Sparks are coming out of his head!
	5:57pm ultradamno: Squeezing Out Sparks, rather
	5:58pm Mike Rogers: Thanks you Mochy san!!!!
	5:58pm ultradamno: But if you squeeze hard enough...
	5:58pm MHLee: The there's no place like home on FresH! knocks me out
	5:58pm Mike Rogers: Shrivel Up was the definitive Devo song for me.
	5:58pm ultradamno: Yeah, that's the one. With the Discovering Japan song, could use that as a theme song
	6:00pm ultradamno: Shrivel Up! Agreed. I wonder if they got sick of those hats, I know The Residents came to hate the eyeballs
	6:02pm MHLee: One of the eyeballs got stolen
	6:02pm Mr Fab: have heard a bazillion Velvet Underground covers, but don't know if I've heard anyone doing this song before.
	6:02pm ultradamno: Leading to the skull mask
	6:03pm Mike Rogers: Do you know "King Corneilus & the Silverbacks" Ultradamno san? They had a gimmick... But they only made one record!
	6:03pm Mike Rogers: I got another Mosis song coming u in the next hour Mr. Fab!
	6:04pm ultradamno: I do not, but I approve of the space chimp cover graphic
	6:04pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san, is that true? How do you steal an eyeball?
	6:05pm ultradamno: So they dress like explorers, they should play on bills with The Mummies
	6:05pm Mr Fab: Sounds painful! But no, he meant the Resident's trademark eyeball headgear.
	6:06pm mochy: The stance of having fun listening to music and chatting with everyone I really appreciate it. Thank you, mike-san 😊
	6:06pm Mike Rogers: Ultradano san! Look for the "I am Great Ape" video by that band
	6:06pm ultradamno: They put out a bounty to get it back and everything. Those things were expensive
	6:06pm Mike Rogers: Well, that's a keeper, then, Mr. Fab! But I think it would be hard to sell it.
	6:07pm Mr Fab: that Lou Reed cover reminds me: just read that there are 600 hours of unreleased Lou Reed/VU recordings in Lou's archives.
	6:07pm ultradamno: And it would stick out at Halloween parties
	6:11pm mochy: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtbkjLfADBvLpAhUWC7N8g1fdz5JjnUj #mrskor #mrswfmu
	6:14pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san, I think you mean, "It would Poke out at parties!"
	6:14pm ultradamno: I remember hearing that when X were approached about doing a song for that Breathless remake with Richard Gere, they evidently thought the band were already doing a cover of the Jerry Lee Lewis song..."well, we do now"
	6:14pm mochy: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtbkjLfADBtfveBMVSSqD76jU3c7Ye_9 ＃京阪ガール #電気キャンディ
	6:14pm Mike Rogers: 600 Hours?
	6:15pm ultradamno: A lot of work for a heroin fashion plate
	6:17pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! What are these links?
	6:17pm ultradamno: R Kelly just got convicted of more stuff...
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: Isn't he the guy who was using fighting dogs? Or am I confused?
	6:18pm ultradamno: His comeback is getting less likely than Mystikal's No that's Michael Vick
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! Isn't this fun? Lots better than English lessons!!!
	6:19pm mochy: Keihan Girl and Electric Candy on YouTube, I tried to summarize the related
	6:19pm Carmichael: Heya Mike and J rockers.
	6:19pm ultradamno: Kelly WISHES he was Vick at this point
	6:19pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko is extremely good looking isn't she?
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: Carmichael san! Welcome to the 1st year anniversary!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: Ah? That's right that guy was named Michael (?) Vick!
	6:22pm Mike Rogers: What did Kelly do?
	6:22pm ultradamno: Yeah, he was a QB for the Falcons. Kelly is the singer who did Trapped In The Closet
	6:22pm mochy: mophingpeopleきた！
	6:23pm Mr Fab: Mike, you do NOT want to know. Suffice to say it involved the underage.
	6:23pm Mike Rogers: What!? I thought Vick was a rapper?
	6:24pm ultradamno: Kelly had a sex cult has been convicted of racketeering, child porn and endangerment and some other stuff
	6:24pm mochy: そろそろ仕事入ります。日曜日楽しみです。
	6:24pm Mr Fab: Damn that Theme song kicks all kinds of butt
	6:25pm ultradamno: If Vick did any music it would have been one of those videos sports teams do from time to time
	6:26pm ultradamno: Conspiracy to obstruct justice was another count today
	6:26pm mochy: 京阪ガール👍
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: Uh, this was NOT on purpose! This song is called "Dog Fight" it was played because of the lattice of consciousness!
	6:28pm ultradamno: I was just thinking of a plate of shrimp...
	6:28pm Mike Rogers: What!!!???? I'm eating a plate of shrimp right now!!!
	6:31pm Mike Rogers: There's is no use in looking for a reason... Besides maybe we dropped a lot of acid in the hippie days...
	6:31pm Mr Fab: they really are obsessed with food, eh?
	6:34pm ultradamno: By the way, I was talking about watching some yokai movies (the Kuroda ones) off Shudder last week, this week I watched The Snake Girl & The Silver Haired Witch, super fun movie. Also, a couple of Bava movies
	6:35pm ultradamno: This is kind of light hearted for Theee Bat, isn't it?
	6:37pm Aitch: With 2x extra e you reeeally neeed to go hard
	6:38pm Mike Rogers: Oh, forgive me guys. In a bit of pain now!!!
	6:39pm Rich in Washington: A Mummies cover (no pun intended)
	6:40pm Mike Rogers: Thansks Rich san! I knew it was a cover, but too lazy to look it up! Knew one of you guys would let me know!
	6:40pm Domenic: Guess its tiki-ish
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: Domenic san! Very Tiki fish!
	6:42pm Rich in Washington: We're incorrigible nerds that way, Mike.
	6:44pm Domenic: Nerd with a good memory ;')
	6:45pm ultradamno: Whereas here, every police department (not to mention random packs of yahoos) are set up with military grade gear
	6:45pm Mike Rogers: That wasn't on purpose, Domenic san! Just a mistake.
	6:47pm Mike Rogers: Yeah, the Japanese police only get ready to crush heads when some group is protesting building an aiport of something (That was like 40 years ago.)
	6:47pm wassuprockerradio: Shonen Kniiiiiife!
	6:48pm wassuprockerradio: Ohayo Mike San!
	6:49pm Mike Rogers: Oh, Hi Alex!!!!
	6:52pm Mike Rogers: Look up "Narita Riots 1978" if you wanna have your mind blown!
	6:53pm Mike Rogers: I was here when that was going on. I couldn't believe it!

	4:54pm Mike Rogers: You are giant amongst mere mortals MH Lee san!
	4:56pm Mike Rogers: I have to go to the doctor today again. Yesterday I was sort of fine. But I woke up with my right knee twice the size of my left knee. Water has accumulated! AAAARRRGGGGHHH!
	4:58pm MHLee: The Kinks have a song about water on the knee
	4:59pm Mike Rogers: God! It hurts! This crap has been going on/off since First Augut!
	4:59pm Mike Rogers: August
	5:00pm ultradamno: Mike! Neighbors!
	5:01pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! Welcome!
	5:01pm SheenaER: Hello people!!
	5:01pm Mike Rogers: Hi Sheena!!!!!
	5:03pm Mr Fab: Many happy returns Mike, and what it a year it has been. Can't imagine the Jungle Room without you. And a big YEAH for the loveable Shonen Knife, in whatever form they take.
	5:06pm Bamboo Boy: Love this banana chips song😆. Happy 1st annivarsary, Mike🎉
	5:06pm Mike Rogers: I blew it! I wanted you guys to guess.... but, oh well....
	5:08pm Mike Rogers: Listuko who was the bassist for Shonen Knife for like 13 years or so, was in a VERY well known band before Shonen Knife.
	5:09pm MHLee: I have 105 minutes before i can leave work
	5:09pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko san, the former Bassist for Shonen Knife, was in two very famous bands before Shonen Knife. Keihan Girl & Denki Candy.
	5:09pm mochy: Ms. Mike, Ms. Sheena Good morning, listeners.
	5:09pm MHLee: Sheena has the music though
	5:10pm Mike Rogers: When Litsuko was like 17 she was sort of an Idol star in Japan. She and her band were scouted by major labels.
	5:11pm ultradamno: Twist n Turn Barbie, who kind of dresses like Shonen Knife www.pinterest.com...
	5:12pm Mike Rogers: I think it was Denki Candy that played huge assed arenas (Shonen Knife doesn't do that in Japan). Shonen Knife is much more famous in the west than they are in Japan. In Japan they play 300 cap places!
	5:12pm Candy-O'67: Hey Mike, Mr. Fab, MHLee, Bamboo Boy, ultradamno!
	5:13pm ultradamno: Hiya Candy!
	5:13pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko was bound for super stardom and then just said, "I don't wanna do that!" Really!
	5:13pm Mike Rogers: She was mabye 20 years old. By the time she was 24, she is considered too old in Japan
	5:14pm Mike Rogers: Hi Candy-O'67 san!!!!
	5:14pm Bamboo Boy: Hello, Candy-O!
	5:14pm Domenic: Happy anniversary! Too bad about Litsuko... Japanese woman live a long time. 24 is still a child!
	5:15pm Candy-O'67: Just subscribed to your channel. Will watch your interview with Naoko later 😁
	5:15pm Mike Rogers: So, she became a member of Shonen Knife. You won't belive how that happened too! Incredible story!
	5:16pm Candy-O'67: I saw Shonen Knife here in Austin shortly before the pandemic. A friend of mine here who is originally from San Francisco turned me onto them.
	5:16pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko interview. This will blow your mind! www.youtube.com...
	5:16pm Candy-O'67: Cool, Mike!
	5:16pm Mike Rogers: Hi Domenic san! ohayougozaimasu!
	5:17pm mochy: マイクさん、シーナさんリスナーの皆様おはようございますこの特集ありですね。
	5:17pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! おはよございます！
	5:17pm Candy-O'67: Love this Rock n Roll T-shirt song! I think I have 300+ rock n roll T-shirts! I have a problem! Hahaha! 🤣
	5:17pm Domenic: My daughter tells me your show is the only "decent" music I listen too. Thanks for making me appear 1/100% cool
	5:18pm ultradamno: I too am mostly fond of the indecent musics
	5:18pm mochy: I've been in a mess with the house because of the electric leakage in the morning. I have to go to work.
	5:19pm Mr Fab: all the shopping mall punks have kinda ruined rock n roll t-shirts for me. Thanks a lot, posers! Wearing a Ramones shirt used to mean something. The secret handshake.
	5:21pm MHLee: @MrFab well hottopic is more likely to sell sonic screwdrivers than mallgoth now
	5:21pm ultradamno: I can remember hearing stories of Hüsker Dü, Minutemen and Die Kreuzen turning down majors cold, mostly because they knew skrewed over and marginalized they'd be
	5:22pm Mike Rogers: Domenic san! You are in the cool 1%!!!!!!
	5:22pm ultradamno: (though Hüsker Dü wound up with WB, so they may have holding out)
	5:22pm MHLee: Not sure how Nerd culture became the mall goth of the 2010s but it did
	5:22pm Candy-O'67: Love that band name the "Let's Go's"!
	5:23pm Mike Rogers: In the first days of punk, there were no T-Shirts so we made our own! Really!
	5:23pm Candy-O'67: Yep, Mike, ripped and with safety pins! 😅
	5:24pm Mr Fab: True Mike, You got out your magic marker, plain white t, and go to work. My daughter loves the Hot Topic at the very mall I used to go to when I was a kid. A mall that sure as hell wasn't selling Joy Division or Misfits shirts when mom would drag me thru it. The real-life Spicolis and Bill n Teds would kick the asses of anyone who liked "New Wave."
	5:25pm mochy: It seems that Keihan Girl will be revived a little next year.
	5:26pm ultradamno: Where I went to school even up to Dream Police, people thought Cheap Trick were punk, so even Ramones marked you as a weirdo
	5:28pm Mike Rogers: Oh, you devil you, Ultradamno san!
	5:28pm ultradamno: Of course, it was also a school named after Walter P Chrysler
	5:29pm Mike Rogers: Mr. Fab, you mean kids wear a Ramones T-Shirt but they don't listen to the Ramones??
	5:29pm MHLee: my parents were into devo in college
	5:30pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san, is that Nerd Culture?
	5:31pm Mr Fab: Yes, Mike, and not just Ramones.
	5:31pm Mike Rogers: So, Mr. Fab, maybe the T-shirt thing has come full circle. It would be cool to make your own Mozart or Beethoven T- Shirt. Rip it up and puts it back together with pins.
	5:31pm ultradamno: Never mind hot topic, you can find Ramones shirt at Wal-Mart. Though I did see a nice Chucky shirt there this morning
	5:32pm Mike Rogers: What is "The Hot Topic?"
	5:32pm ultradamno: Chain of gothy clothing stores, mostly in shopping malls
	5:32pm Mr Fab: Hot Topic is the posers' super-store.
	5:33pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san!!!! Is that true!!!!??? Keihan will be revived next year???
	5:34pm Mike Rogers: I saw a video of them playing at about a 5000 - 6000 seater in Osaka. That is amazing!
	5:34pm Bamboo Boy: Singing about bananas, Barbie, then Kitty. Love that innocent obserbation similar to my fave Johnanthan Richman's.
	5:35pm ultradamno: Speaking of Ramones twitter.com...
	5:35pm mochy: YouTube is up! I'm looking forward to it!
	5:35pm Candy-O'67: I used to like Hot Topic back in the late '90's/early 2000's when they were starting, to my knowledge. They used to have cool stuff, but then got too commercialized, for sure
	5:35pm Mike Rogers: It seems a contradiction to buy a punk shirt to me... But, I'm crazy.
	5:36pm ultradamno: From some place like those, sure, but from the band...
	5:36pm Mike Rogers: Ha! I had a guy ask me once, "Do you like Punk?" I said, "Yes!" He sad, "Like Cheap Trick and the Cars?" My eyes rolled. But I said, "Yeah!"
	5:38pm ultradamno: Wearing Ramones shirts and not knowing who they are reminds me of the post I saw the other day about Godard's death "Love Breathless and 400 Blows" I hope it was a troll.
	5:38pm Bamboo Boy: Whoa, this garage punk version of Sada Masashi's classic is so cool and ironical.
	5:38pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san! Your parents? How old are they? They must be very old..... Like me.
	5:39pm Mike Rogers: I saw early DEVO and they just blew away Mink Deville. They didn't come on the stage... The came in the auditorium back entries. People thought, "WTF?"
	5:41pm MHLee: My parents are both 60
	5:42pm Mr Fab: you're actually cool Candy-O'67, so you SHOULD buy those shirts!
	5:42pm Mike Rogers: Oh, I guess I won't ever go to a Hot Topic store. That name sounds dodgy in the first place.
	5:43pm SheenaER: I love this band especially
	5:43pm ultradamno: I saw Joan Jett blow The Police off the stage when I saw them. I also saw Graham Parker open for Cheap Trick. The audience REVILED him, which I still don't understand. He was good, I wouldn't say he blew them off the stage though.
	5:44pm Aitch: Late for the 1st birthday party, so rude! Ohayo Mike-san and gang. Really love the show, have learned so much
	5:44pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san! You are so proud of them. Because for someone their age to have liked DEVO, they were considered weirdos by most of their friends! Ha! Ha! Ha!
	5:45pm ultradamno: People had a hard time wrapping their heads around DEVO. Even Joe Walsh, who knew them from Kent, had famously no idea what to make of it when they visited him ("you guys are over my head or under it")
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: All just for you, Bamboo Boy san!
	5:46pm Mike Rogers: Sheena! What band?
	5:47pm Candy-O'67: Oh, happy birthday to your show, Mike!
	5:48pm ultradamno: It's just starting to pogo on it's own...now on to the terrible twos
	5:48pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! I had a friend in high school who absolutely loved Graham Parker!
	5:48pm Mike Rogers: Aitch san! Welcome! Have some punch!!!
	5:49pm Mike Rogers: DEVO was good until Pink Pussycat. What do you think. Mr. Fab?
	5:50pm Mike Rogers: Thank you, Candy-O'67 san!
	5:50pm ultradamno: This was right around Spitting Out Sparks, so kind of a peak time to see him too
	5:50pm MHLee: Why is it playing Jan! Something went funky in this player again
	5:51pm MHLee: This computer, man
	5:52pm Mr Fab: Nah, I liked Devo for a bit after. Different, and not quite as good, but still good. "Shout" was their jump-the-shark album for me. But then in the '90s they did a real good surfy (believe it or not) album as The Wipeouters.
	5:53pm mochy: I see, it's the 1st anniversary of mrs wfmu. Congratulations! It's already been a year.
	5:56pm ultradamno: Spitting Out Sparks is a Graham Parker album, dummy
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: Yeah. Mark Mothersbaugh once told me that "Labels want a Devo Covers album, but they don't want a Devo album." He seemed a bit down. But they were great!
	5:57pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san! Oh, I know that record. Sparks are coming out of his head!
	5:57pm ultradamno: Squeezing Out Sparks, rather
	5:58pm Mike Rogers: Thanks you Mochy san!!!!
	5:58pm ultradamno: But if you squeeze hard enough...
	5:58pm MHLee: The there's no place like home on FresH! knocks me out
	5:58pm Mike Rogers: Shrivel Up was the definitive Devo song for me.
	5:58pm ultradamno: Yeah, that's the one. With the Discovering Japan song, could use that as a theme song
	6:00pm ultradamno: Shrivel Up! Agreed. I wonder if they got sick of those hats, I know The Residents came to hate the eyeballs
	6:02pm MHLee: One of the eyeballs got stolen
	6:02pm Mr Fab: have heard a bazillion Velvet Underground covers, but don't know if I've heard anyone doing this song before.
	6:02pm ultradamno: Leading to the skull mask
	6:03pm Mike Rogers: Do you know "King Corneilus & the Silverbacks" Ultradamno san? They had a gimmick... But they only made one record!
	6:03pm Mike Rogers: I got another Mosis song coming u in the next hour Mr. Fab!
	6:04pm ultradamno: I do not, but I approve of the space chimp cover graphic
	6:04pm Mike Rogers: MHLee san, is that true? How do you steal an eyeball?
	6:05pm ultradamno: So they dress like explorers, they should play on bills with The Mummies
	6:05pm Mr Fab: Sounds painful! But no, he meant the Resident's trademark eyeball headgear.
	6:06pm mochy: The stance of having fun listening to music and chatting with everyone I really appreciate it. Thank you, mike-san 😊
	6:06pm Mike Rogers: Ultradano san! Look for the "I am Great Ape" video by that band
	6:06pm ultradamno: They put out a bounty to get it back and everything. Those things were expensive
	6:06pm Mike Rogers: Well, that's a keeper, then, Mr. Fab! But I think it would be hard to sell it.
	6:07pm Mr Fab: that Lou Reed cover reminds me: just read that there are 600 hours of unreleased Lou Reed/VU recordings in Lou's archives.
	6:07pm ultradamno: And it would stick out at Halloween parties
	6:11pm mochy: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtbkjLfADBvLpAhUWC7N8g1fdz5JjnUj #mrskor #mrswfmu
	6:14pm Mike Rogers: Ultradamno san, I think you mean, "It would Poke out at parties!"
	6:14pm ultradamno: I remember hearing that when X were approached about doing a song for that Breathless remake with Richard Gere, they evidently thought the band were already doing a cover of the Jerry Lee Lewis song..."well, we do now"
	6:14pm mochy: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWtbkjLfADBtfveBMVSSqD76jU3c7Ye_9 ＃京阪ガール #電気キャンディ
	6:14pm Mike Rogers: 600 Hours?
	6:15pm ultradamno: A lot of work for a heroin fashion plate
	6:17pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! What are these links?
	6:17pm ultradamno: R Kelly just got convicted of more stuff...
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: Isn't he the guy who was using fighting dogs? Or am I confused?
	6:18pm ultradamno: His comeback is getting less likely than Mystikal's No that's Michael Vick
	6:18pm Mike Rogers: Mochy san! Isn't this fun? Lots better than English lessons!!!
	6:19pm mochy: Keihan Girl and Electric Candy on YouTube, I tried to summarize the related
	6:19pm Carmichael: Heya Mike and J rockers.
	6:19pm ultradamno: Kelly WISHES he was Vick at this point
	6:19pm Mike Rogers: Litsuko is extremely good looking isn't she?
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: Carmichael san! Welcome to the 1st year anniversary!
	6:20pm Mike Rogers: Ah? That's right that guy was named Michael (?) Vick!
	6:22pm Mike Rogers: What did Kelly do?
	6:22pm ultradamno: Yeah, he was a QB for the Falcons. Kelly is the singer who did Trapped In The Closet
	6:22pm mochy: mophingpeopleきた！
	6:23pm Mr Fab: Mike, you do NOT want to know. Suffice to say it involved the underage.
	6:23pm Mike Rogers: What!? I thought Vick was a rapper?
	6:24pm ultradamno: Kelly had a sex cult has been convicted of racketeering, child porn and endangerment and some other stuff
	6:24pm mochy: そろそろ仕事入ります。日曜日楽しみです。
	6:24pm Mr Fab: Damn that Theme song kicks all kinds of butt
	6:25pm ultradamno: If Vick did any music it would have been one of those videos sports teams do from time to time
	6:26pm ultradamno: Conspiracy to obstruct justice was another count today
	6:26pm mochy: 京阪ガール👍
	6:27pm Mike Rogers: Uh, this was NOT on purpose! This song is called "Dog Fight" it was played because of the lattice of consciousness!
	6:28pm ultradamno: I was just thinking of a plate of shrimp...
	6:28pm Mike Rogers: What!!!???? I'm eating a plate of shrimp right now!!!
	6:31pm Mike Rogers: There's is no use in looking for a reason... Besides maybe we dropped a lot of acid in the hippie days...
	6:31pm Mr Fab: they really are obsessed with food, eh?
	6:34pm ultradamno: By the way, I was talking about watching some yokai movies (the Kuroda ones) off Shudder last week, this week I watched The Snake Girl & The Silver Haired Witch, super fun movie. Also, a couple of Bava movies
	6:35pm ultradamno: This is kind of light hearted for Theee Bat, isn't it?
	6:37pm Aitch: With 2x extra e you reeeally neeed to go hard
	6:38pm Mike Rogers: Oh, forgive me guys. In a bit of pain now!!!
	6:39pm Rich in Washington: A Mummies cover (no pun intended)
	6:40pm Mike Rogers: Thansks Rich san! I knew it was a cover, but too lazy to look it up! Knew one of you guys would let me know!
	6:40pm Domenic: Guess its tiki-ish
	6:41pm Mike Rogers: Domenic san! Very Tiki fish!
	6:42pm Rich in Washington: We're incorrigible nerds that way, Mike.
	6:44pm Domenic: Nerd with a good memory ;')
	6:45pm ultradamno: Whereas here, every police department (not to mention random packs of yahoos) are set up with military grade gear
	6:45pm Mike Rogers: That wasn't on purpose, Domenic san! Just a mistake.
	6:47pm Mike Rogers: Yeah, the Japanese police only get ready to crush heads when some group is protesting building an aiport of something (That was like 40 years ago.)
	6:47pm wassuprockerradio: Shonen Kniiiiiife!
	6:48pm wassuprockerradio: Ohayo Mike San!
	6:49pm Mike Rogers: Oh, Hi Alex!!!!
	6:52pm Mike Rogers: Look up "Narita Riots 1978" if you wanna have your mind blown!
	6:53pm Mike Rogers: I was here when that was going on. I couldn't believe it!
