	11:10am Moammar: Bourbon also useful.
	11:10am clarke: two-fer.
	11:10am phat in lincoln: Morning all.
	11:10am clarke: who died??
	11:11am clarke: phat how's the mouth??
	♥ 11:11am Handy Haversack: Just stocked up on sanity juice for the season. Time to break out the MS coasters!
	11:11am clarke: @Handy - stock the fridge in the amphibious bookmobile, as well!!
	♥ 11:12am Christina Ginger: OG Sudafed works like a charm for day time, lemme tell you. I had the sinus infection from hell last month, and it managed to clear me up/ make breathing manageable. I was so sick, I was still able to take a nap.
	11:12am Brooklyn Banzai: Wow - got some real adult themes right after double dip recess!
	11:12am phat in lincoln: @clarke so much better. Still can't eat solids yet, but the pain and swelling is mostly gone. Thanks for asking.
	♥ 11:13am Squints: clarke, that was my question, too. I hear two and wonder have we lost someone? Jim Bonfanti's already gone, right?
	11:13am Myron Feld: @clarke: my first thought when I hear two in a row from any artist
	♥ 11:13am Handy Haversack: When I had the misery bug a week or so back -- sinus infection? RSV? dunno -- I found that Theraflu and a gummy at least let me get to sleep at night. Is the playlist not updating for anyone else?
	11:13am clarke: that is Gr8 phat!! i'm also divorced from reality.
	♥ 11:13am Christina Ginger: Does he have Billy Idol-style surgery?
	♥ 11:14am Squints: So to follow with Back Seat Of My Car would be a little too on the nose?
	♥ 11:14am Handy Haversack: There it is.
	♥ 11:15am Squints: He probably hadn't planned to slow down his life so abruptly.
	11:15am tonyb: Why Lefty? He played guitar right handed?
	11:15am clarke: only Faron Young was that prepared.
	11:16am phat in lincoln: Flying out to New Orleans for work tonight. Where should I go for a show and where should I go for a legit mojo hand?
	11:16am clarke: @Baby - BABY!!!
	11:17am clarke: @PHAT - whoah!! hey we can try to get the group together, but it is the holidays. can you eamil mr. shelley and he'll CC me??
	11:18am clarke: GGY!!!! GGS!
	11:19am clarke: this be badass.
	11:20am clarke: phat - there's too much to actually mention, but there is no real rock going on that is not xmas-related, that i know about. (i live UNDER a rock!).
	♥ 11:20am Michael Shelley: ERIC CARMEN - www.imdb.com...
	11:23am Listener Baby: Hi Clarke!!
	11:23am clarke: wait a minute, Baby - oh, that's stevie.
	♥ 11:24am disco_nap_: Loving all the Chrissie appreciation lately, even if it is for a sad reason.
	11:24am phat in lincoln: @clarke wait, how did I not know you're in New Orleans?
	11:24am clarke: how's yer nightmare?? i hope things are moving, so to speak.
	♥ 11:25am tom tom the pipers son: good choice to emphasize about instead of me in the final version
	11:25am clarke: dunno Phat! we have a nice contingent of nola folks here on the chat, but, uhhh, i'm the only one, this morning.
	11:25am Ross T.: Love me some Tusk.
	♥ 11:25am myron feld: @phat: I strongly recommend Lulu & The Broadsides, Sunday night 7:00 pm @ BJ's, 4301 Burgundy St
	11:26am phat in lincoln: Well hells bells. I'll be there through Wednesday afternoon.
	11:26am clarke: maybe DRR is more plugged into what's going on this week, if he comes around?
	♥ 11:27am Frank In Queens: Zoot has some good stuff!
	♥ 11:27am Handy Haversack: We saw Richard Thompon on Thursday (which was unbelievably great). One of his riffs was that they "all do cruises now."
	11:27am clarke: ok, phat: what time does your flight arrive and where are u staying?
	♥ 11:27am Christina Ginger: I saw Rick. He delivered, to say the least. I think he did a Zoot song…? Will have to see if I can find the set list online.
	11:28am clarke: @Handy - that's awesome. did you get to hear The Song?
	11:28am Bob: Yeah, I’d forgotten it but thanks for reminding me
	♥ 11:28am Squints: Who were "they," Handy? Legacy acts?
	♥ 11:29am Handy Haversack: Someone requested in, clarke, and it was fantastic. I was in tears. We're total converts -- will go see him every year if we can swing it. "Matty Groves" was another highlight. Just absolutely fucking nailed it. Squints, yeah, I think so -- or older musicians. Apparently, there are cruises for everything.
	11:29am clarke: those who use roto-toms, Squints.
	11:30am phat in lincoln: @clarke I get in way late tonight, but I'm free pretty much all day tomorrow (there's a work dinner later). I'm in meetings Monday and Tuesday. Staying at the Hyatt Regency tonight and then the Loews through Tuesday.
	♥ 11:31am Squints: Aw, man. RIP Dino.
	11:31am clarke: HH - i have seen RT quite a few times - each similar. meaning: ultra-fantastic!! once it was a dual bill with Loudon III - and they did some duets at the end. spectacular.
	11:32am clarke: not a good week for drummers. RIP Dino.
	♥ 11:32am myron feld: Dino was way up there. So, so good.
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: Listener Carmichael prodded me gently to go ahead and get the tix, and I'm super grateful that he did. Instant highlight of the year. I'm not saying K8 and I were the youngest people in the hall, but we were in the last quintile, that's for sure.
	♥ 11:33am Squints: If ever a drummer were gonna spontaneously combust...
	11:34am clarke: general trend, handy.
	♥ 11:35am Handy Haversack: And we're not young!
	11:35am Paul: He did look a lot like McCartney.
	11:36am clarke: the hell u say!!
	♥ 11:36am Christina Ginger: Do You Feel It has excellent drumming from Dino on it.
	♥ 11:37am Michael Shelley: Richard Thompson in Montclair Jan 14th - outpost.ticketleap.com...
	♥ 11:37am Frank In Queens: I usually shy away from these Young Rascals stereo mixes, but they really do highlight Dino's playing.
	11:38am clarke: they are interesting to hear, frank, sometimes.
	♥ 11:38am dday: The Rascals. Garfield,NJ, hometown boys made good. And then there were 3. Sad they can't settle their differences & just be civil to each other.
	11:38am Bob: Stereo mix works for this
	♥ 11:39am disco_nap_: Didn't realize they were Jersey boys! Makes sense though because I heard them a lot growing up in NJ...mostly being played by my Boomer parents...
	♥ 11:40am nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...Sorry it took me so long to join the party. Internet issues.
	♥ 11:40am Frank In Queens: @clarke, yeah, interesting relics from the time, and also pretty good for learning songs depending on the separation.
	♥ 11:40am dday: Recent books by both Felix Cavaliere & Gene Cornish are both good reads
	♥ 11:40am nycmusicnerd: Also: ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!! Rick Springfield is criminally underrated.
	11:41am clarke: yipes, nycmn! @Frank - u headed to rink, later??
	♥ 11:41am Roberto: Amin Son of a Gun
	♥ 11:41am disco_nap_: I like how cheerfully Johnny is telling us he is a mean son of a gun.
	♥ 11:41am Frank In Queens: @clarke, nah they're in Vegas tonight.
	♥ 11:41am dday: Rascals cut their live teeth at both The Barge on Long Island & The Choo Choo Club in Garfield,NJ. Family to me.
	11:42am clarke: gotcha - this is one day when there is little sports action.
	♥ 11:43am dday: @clarke: 3 NFL games today on NFL Network. I don't get it so...
	♥ 11:43am nycmusicnerd: Handy: I went last night. Honestly, not the best all-request show I've ever seen from RT, but still--it was RT. Can't complain about that.
	11:43am Tim from LH: I got to see The Rascals on the last night of their Broadway run,about ten years ago,all 4 original members. Dino was still putting on a show.
	11:44am clarke: i don't think any games i care about are on today. which is not like it has been. got an lsu basketball game and that's about it
	♥ 11:44am Squints: Bruins have a 1pm matinee.
	11:44am clarke: yessss!! i DONT mind!
	11:45am phat in lincoln: @clarke email sent to Mr. Shelley
	11:45am Bob: Wasn’t the Choo Choo club NRBQ’s early anchor? Is there a resource for information on that club anywhere? I guess I could Google
	♥ 11:45am disco_nap_: Heck yeah Buzzcocks
	11:45am clarke: mkay, phat - as per above, i don't have a lot going on this evening.
	11:46am clarke: @phat - do you know what the Shelley Show patch looks like?
	♥ 11:47am Handy Haversack: Glen Campbell has seen me tinkle!
	11:47am phat in lincoln: @clarke I'm not sure. Is the drawing of him at the microphone?
	♥ 11:48am dday: @Bob: The Choo Choo Club sat next to the railroad trestle on Passaic St. in Garfield NJ (hence the name). I don't think NRBQ were in that area back then & the club is long closed
	11:48am clarke: no, it is a legit looking patch. maybe someone has a photo
	11:48am Bob: Handy, that’s your autobiography title right there
	11:48am phat in lincoln: @clarke I don't get in until midnight. Lol. I book weird flights.
	♥ 11:49am disco_nap_: Whoa that was quite a note at the end there, Glen!
	11:49am clarke: oh, ok. well tomorrow is world cup final - but after that, we could meet up.
	11:50am egould: Damn that Buzzcocks number got me sprinting for the last two minutes of my run. Uphill! Good morning and thank you Michael Shelley.
	11:51am clarke: @phat - where you staying?
	11:51am phat in lincoln: @clarke oh shit, the final is tomorrow? Yes. We can meet up later.
	♥ 11:51am yerfriendpaul: Handy - was the tinkle flowing gentle on your mind?
	11:51am DG: Only Eddie (& brother David, who sang on some albums) were from Garfield. I think Danelli was from WFMU---land (Jersey City) while Cavaliere was from Pelham (NY) & Cornish was born in Ontario, but grew up in Rochester. But yeah, the Choo Choo Club was in Brigati's hometown, so they played there a lot, as well as a place in Westhampton (which I'm sure is gone now).
	11:52am phat in lincoln: @clarke Loews downtown after tonight. Tonight is Hyatt Regency downtown.
	♥ 11:52am Baja Joe: Good morning greetings to you Michael and Shelley-ites, just under the wire.
	11:52am clarke: @phat - the final starts a 9am here, nola time. i'm sure there will be plenty of bars open, ha ha.
	11:53am clarke: okay, i'm in the lower garden district, so not too far from downtown.
	11:54am phat in lincoln: Nice.
	11:55am dday: @DG: as I mentioned Eddie is family. His sister Anna was my Mom's best friend in HS and is my younger brother's godmother. The Barge was in Westhampton, LI..long gone.
	♥ 11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Checkerboards take third place. ⚽
	♥ 11:56am HyperDose: Yes sir Mick sir! 😎💨
	11:57am Moammar: Bobby Keys and some guys.
	11:57am clarke: loew's is right across from the casino which has a music venue called The Fillmore - check their schedule!
	11:57am dday: Favorite Stones song of all time for me
	♥ 11:58am Sweet Corn Lizzie: Dday I concur
	11:58am dday: This & If You Can't Rock Me
	11:59am phat in lincoln: Sweet
	11:59am clarke: gooder!!
	12:00pm clarke: @phat - that show Myron mentioned is worth a gander, and i see George Porter has a show at the Fillmore on monday night - he was in The Meters
	♥ 12:01pm disco_nap_: Awww Witchi Tai To <3
	♥ 12:02pm Handy Haversack: I should start chopping stuff for brunch, but Goblin's on my lap, and I'm feeling lazy ...
	12:02pm phat in lincoln: @clarke there's a Porter show on the 26th.
	12:03pm DG: I know this Witchi Tai To song/chant has been covered by other people...Brewer & Shipley, maybe? Remember hearing a different version on FM radio back in the day.
	12:03pm clarke: oh, he is usually playing around somewhere, tho. i'm too jaded to go to stuff like that, ha ha ha.
	♥ 12:03pm disco_nap_: Also The Supremes!
	12:05pm DG: dday: Thanks. I think I may've seen Eddie (& David?) at this UNICEF benefit in '82 or so, with Rick Derringer, Carmine Appice & others...if you or anyone else can confirm...but never the Rascals together. Are the brothers still doing shows, making music, etc.?
	♥ 12:06pm drr: Hi, @phat. Another NO person here. I looked at a bunch of local club calendars and it looks like it's going to be really slow. That show at BJ's should be fun. BJ's is a great spot anyway. Expect it to be crowded. In a fun way, of course.
	12:07pm clarke: mornin' Dave!!
	♥ 12:07pm Roberto: Where Does the World Go to Hide the Rolling Stones?
	♥ 12:07pm disco_nap_: Harpers Bizarre
	12:09pm clarke: so nice they played it twice!
	12:10pm phat in lincoln: @drr I may check that out.
	12:11pm clarke: Turntable One is actin' up. union dispute.
	12:11pm phat in lincoln: Week before Christmas is likely to be slow.
	12:11pm clarke: used to be nice when mermaid and circle bar were around - ain't there no mo.
	12:12pm clarke: i'm sure Benny Grunch & The Bunch are giggin' - ha ha ha.
	12:12pm bobobob plasticland: James cotton was Bobby blue bland half bro
	♥ 12:13pm drr: Yeah, Siberia and Santos are strictly metal for the holidays. And, no on Benny Grunch! He's recovering from a stroke.
	♥ 12:13pm Handy Haversack: We've had five people cancel for karaoke tonight so far. One COVID, three general sickness.
	12:13pm clarke: oh wow. dang bra why?
	♥ 12:15pm Squints: Now THIS is a Number. One. hit..
	12:15pm clarke: when i was a child, the big thing at xmas time was to go down to the Maison Blanche department store and see a puppet called Mr. Bingle in the front window. huge crowds!!
	12:15pm phat in lincoln: @drr zydeco at Siberia tomorrow night.
	12:16pm clarke: there ya go! we're too jaded for all dat.
	12:16pm kevin: Witchi-Ty-Toe was recorded by Brewer and Shipley Michael.
	♥ 12:16pm Michael Shelley: www.nola.com...
	12:17pm clarke: apparently Siberia got bought back by the original owner, so hopefully the booking reverts back to good stuff.
	12:17pm phat in lincoln: I used to see a lot of Zydeco at the Zoo Bar here in Lincoln.
	♥ 12:17pm nycmusicnerd: MY FAVORITE ROCKPILE SONG!!
	♥ 12:17pm Handy Haversack: clarke, in ATL one would go to Rich's dept. store and ride the Pink Pig monorail through a giant Xmas tree. Sometimes I think I made that up, but I'm pretty sure it was real.
	12:18pm clarke: Bingle was KING!!
	12:18pm kevin: The Cyrcle did Red rubber ball written by Paul Simon
	12:18pm clarke: dang Handy! that's cool. we just looked thru a store window.
	12:18pm phat in lincoln: I do seriously (knowing full well I'm a tourist) want to avoid tourists. Lol.
	♥ 12:18pm nycmusicnerd: A few years ago NL & Los Straitjackets did a double gig with the Mavericks. (One night only, in KY, no I didn't see it.) My dream now is to hear NL & Raul Malo duet on this one.
	12:19pm DG: Listening to this Rockpile song again, I'm amazed the Everly Bros. never recorded it (esp. as Edmunds produced them). Maybe it was written for them & they turned it down.
	12:20pm clarke: well, if you are avoiding tourists do NOT go to that zydeco show!! ha ha.
	♥ 12:21pm nycmusicnerd: DG: The first time I heard it I thought it was an Everly cover.
	♥ 12:21pm drr: @phat: Siberia is also a happy place for me. If you were getting here tonight you could see Congealed Putrescence there. Their booking is pretty eclectic.
	12:21pm clarke: dave's really pushing that show!! i sold my tix.
	12:22pm phat in lincoln: @clarke lol
	12:22pm phat in lincoln: @drr I get in at Midnight...
	♥ 12:23pm drr: I have and love that Rockpile LP and I've mentioned before how happy it makes me that they used a gatefold sleeve to advertise their tour dates for that year. But I don't have, and haven't heard, the 4-song EP of Everlys songs that originally came with it.
	♥ 12:23pm Squints: I'm afraid the putresence is runnier than you like it.
	12:23pm clarke: but, it is true that might be the only non-xmas show this week
	♥ 12:24pm drr: @Squints: you forgot to add "monsieur".
	12:24pm clarke: that's what i fear, Sq1
	12:25pm Moammar: The Rockpile Everlys EP was great fun. I bought that album and EP when they came out, not certain what I was getting into. I probably remember every word of "Poor Jenny" to this day.
	12:25pm clarke: is Goldie on the road, DRR??
	♥ 12:25pm Squints: But, monsieur. Ze putrescence is way-fair thin.
	12:25pm clarke: i have that EP - wonderful.
	12:25pm tonyb: I think that Rockpile tour fell apart? Think they did play Capitol in Passaic ‘tho?
	♥ 12:25pm Squints: GGY right here.
	12:26pm clarke: i'll have the lot, m'sure Squeents!!
	12:26pm egould: Got that Memphis soul.
	♥ 12:26pm drr: Goldie is enjoying her golden years, with new ball joints and control arms, and new belt and pulleys. And a new thermostat, so the heat works again. Confident she will make it to 200,000 miles soon.
	12:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz ! ~
	12:27pm clarke: awesome, David!! that means you can pick phat up, ha ha
	12:28pm clarke: when does Goldie pull out for chatta-boogie??
	♥ 12:29pm drr: Not going, Clarke--Thanksgiving is mandatory, Christmas is extremely optional.
	12:30pm clarke: oh, and the truck performed for t-giving? cool!!
	♥ 12:31pm Frank In Queens: Wow, 18?!
	12:31pm clarke: the Kid has a unique voice!! brilliant!
	12:31pm Moammar: Intimations of Mortality, by Michael Shelley
	♥ 12:32pm drr: and @phat, that zydeco show won't be a touristy one, clarke's being cynical. I know that opening band are just some kids (relatively speaking) with washboards and fiddles from my neighborhood. It'll probably be like the indie rock equivalent of zydeco. Expect enthusiasm.
	12:33pm jimphis: Just like me? Respect
	12:34pm clarke: DRR's right - i'm too jaded on what has become of the nola scene. don't listen to me.
	12:35pm adam: this is on commercial now. the commercial reminds me of an a24 movie called lamb.
	12:35pm Bob: I confess I have some sort of neurological block for the Mamas & Papas
	12:37pm Moammar: Sir Mack Rice is the only member of the royal family worth saving.
	♥ 12:38pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi!
	12:39pm KingOfJunk: WOW!!!
	♥ 12:40pm myron feld: speaking of the kid - check the new Juniper lp coming out in January - www.junipersongs.com
	12:41pm phat in lincoln: @drr sweet.
	♥ 12:41pm drr: Moammar: what about the Duke of Earl?
	12:42pm clarke: he can't decide.
	♥ 12:42pm Frank In Queens: @myron it's another gem!
	12:42pm clarke: and Squints is still makin' his mind up about Toledo.
	♥ 12:43pm Mailman Tom: Lyrics of wisdom!
	12:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'd've called this FolkRawk ...slightly BaroquePop ok...
	12:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...tho they're called 'Sunshine'...)
	♥ 12:47pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love this stuff because of my SoCal youth.
	12:47pm JimF: I can't stop singing "There She Goes Again" along to this chorus.
	♥ 12:48pm myron feld: as for royalty, I'm partial to the three Kings: Curtis, Floyd and Coleman
	12:49pm Listener Baby: Miss Elliott had exquisite pitch.
	♥ 12:53pm Michael Shelley: One of the best singers!
	12:54pm Toothgrinder Tom: A shanty town!
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Desmond Dekker! Real nice. Thanks, MS! Have good days all youse!
	12:54pm Listener Baby: Mama Cass could really sing?
	12:55pm KingOfJunk: WOW!!!
	♥ 12:56pm Baja Joe: BBBBBucci
	12:56pm clarke: this show FLEW by! good'un. thnx, as always.
	♥ 12:56pm LastWhiteRhino: Da Booch !
	12:58pm clarke: he's no buddy!!
	12:58pm Bob: Terry: “Hey, Tommy. When is a door NOT a door?” Tommy: “hmmm, when is a door NOT a door? I don’t know” Terry: “When it’s Jim Morrison. Because he’s DEAD!”
	♥ 12:58pm Frank In Queens: Thanks Michael,, great show.
	12:59pm phat in lincoln: Great show!
	12:59pm egould: Who would applaud for that?!?
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
	12:59pm egould: Thanks Mike!

	♥ 11:08am disco_nap_: Loved the mellow vibe of that demo version of LGIO, perfect for Saturday morning.
	11:08am clarke: how many virginities lost to this one?
	11:08am Bob: I barely felt like putting my socks on let alone getting it on
	11:09am clarke: bob - i know difff stuff works for diff people, but have you tried Alka Seltzer Night Time Plus, yet?
	11:10am clarke: i do not work for the company, but that stuff is a life-saver!!
	11:10am Moammar: Bourbon also useful.
	11:10am clarke: two-fer.
	11:10am phat in lincoln: Morning all.
	11:10am clarke: who died??
	11:11am clarke: phat how's the mouth??
	♥ 11:11am Handy Haversack: Just stocked up on sanity juice for the season. Time to break out the MS coasters!
	11:11am clarke: @Handy - stock the fridge in the amphibious bookmobile, as well!!
	♥ 11:12am Christina Ginger: OG Sudafed works like a charm for day time, lemme tell you. I had the sinus infection from hell last month, and it managed to clear me up/ make breathing manageable. I was so sick, I was still able to take a nap.
	11:12am Brooklyn Banzai: Wow - got some real adult themes right after double dip recess!
	11:12am phat in lincoln: @clarke so much better. Still can't eat solids yet, but the pain and swelling is mostly gone. Thanks for asking.
	♥ 11:13am Squints: clarke, that was my question, too. I hear two and wonder have we lost someone? Jim Bonfanti's already gone, right?
	11:13am Myron Feld: @clarke: my first thought when I hear two in a row from any artist
	♥ 11:13am Handy Haversack: When I had the misery bug a week or so back -- sinus infection? RSV? dunno -- I found that Theraflu and a gummy at least let me get to sleep at night. Is the playlist not updating for anyone else?
	11:13am clarke: that is Gr8 phat!! i'm also divorced from reality.
	♥ 11:13am Christina Ginger: Does he have Billy Idol-style surgery?
	♥ 11:14am Squints: So to follow with Back Seat Of My Car would be a little too on the nose?
	♥ 11:14am Handy Haversack: There it is.
	♥ 11:15am Squints: He probably hadn't planned to slow down his life so abruptly.
	11:15am tonyb: Why Lefty? He played guitar right handed?
	11:15am clarke: only Faron Young was that prepared.
	11:16am phat in lincoln: Flying out to New Orleans for work tonight. Where should I go for a show and where should I go for a legit mojo hand?
	11:16am clarke: @Baby - BABY!!!
	11:17am clarke: @PHAT - whoah!! hey we can try to get the group together, but it is the holidays. can you eamil mr. shelley and he'll CC me??
	11:18am clarke: GGY!!!! GGS!
	11:19am clarke: this be badass.
	11:20am clarke: phat - there's too much to actually mention, but there is no real rock going on that is not xmas-related, that i know about. (i live UNDER a rock!).
	♥ 11:20am Michael Shelley: ERIC CARMEN - www.imdb.com...
	11:23am Listener Baby: Hi Clarke!!
	11:23am clarke: wait a minute, Baby - oh, that's stevie.
	♥ 11:24am disco_nap_: Loving all the Chrissie appreciation lately, even if it is for a sad reason.
	11:24am phat in lincoln: @clarke wait, how did I not know you're in New Orleans?
	11:24am clarke: how's yer nightmare?? i hope things are moving, so to speak.
	♥ 11:25am tom tom the pipers son: good choice to emphasize about instead of me in the final version
	11:25am clarke: dunno Phat! we have a nice contingent of nola folks here on the chat, but, uhhh, i'm the only one, this morning.
	11:25am Ross T.: Love me some Tusk.
	♥ 11:25am myron feld: @phat: I strongly recommend Lulu & The Broadsides, Sunday night 7:00 pm @ BJ's, 4301 Burgundy St
	11:26am phat in lincoln: Well hells bells. I'll be there through Wednesday afternoon.
	11:26am clarke: maybe DRR is more plugged into what's going on this week, if he comes around?
	♥ 11:27am Frank In Queens: Zoot has some good stuff!
	♥ 11:27am Handy Haversack: We saw Richard Thompon on Thursday (which was unbelievably great). One of his riffs was that they "all do cruises now."
	11:27am clarke: ok, phat: what time does your flight arrive and where are u staying?
	♥ 11:27am Christina Ginger: I saw Rick. He delivered, to say the least. I think he did a Zoot song…? Will have to see if I can find the set list online.
	11:28am clarke: @Handy - that's awesome. did you get to hear The Song?
	11:28am Bob: Yeah, I’d forgotten it but thanks for reminding me
	♥ 11:28am Squints: Who were "they," Handy? Legacy acts?
	♥ 11:29am Handy Haversack: Someone requested in, clarke, and it was fantastic. I was in tears. We're total converts -- will go see him every year if we can swing it. "Matty Groves" was another highlight. Just absolutely fucking nailed it. Squints, yeah, I think so -- or older musicians. Apparently, there are cruises for everything.
	11:29am clarke: those who use roto-toms, Squints.
	11:30am phat in lincoln: @clarke I get in way late tonight, but I'm free pretty much all day tomorrow (there's a work dinner later). I'm in meetings Monday and Tuesday. Staying at the Hyatt Regency tonight and then the Loews through Tuesday.
	♥ 11:31am Squints: Aw, man. RIP Dino.
	11:31am clarke: HH - i have seen RT quite a few times - each similar. meaning: ultra-fantastic!! once it was a dual bill with Loudon III - and they did some duets at the end. spectacular.
	11:32am clarke: not a good week for drummers. RIP Dino.
	♥ 11:32am myron feld: Dino was way up there. So, so good.
	♥ 11:32am Handy Haversack: Listener Carmichael prodded me gently to go ahead and get the tix, and I'm super grateful that he did. Instant highlight of the year. I'm not saying K8 and I were the youngest people in the hall, but we were in the last quintile, that's for sure.
	♥ 11:33am Squints: If ever a drummer were gonna spontaneously combust...
	11:34am clarke: general trend, handy.
	♥ 11:35am Handy Haversack: And we're not young!
	11:35am Paul: He did look a lot like McCartney.
	11:36am clarke: the hell u say!!
	♥ 11:36am Christina Ginger: Do You Feel It has excellent drumming from Dino on it.
	♥ 11:37am Michael Shelley: Richard Thompson in Montclair Jan 14th - outpost.ticketleap.com...
	♥ 11:37am Frank In Queens: I usually shy away from these Young Rascals stereo mixes, but they really do highlight Dino's playing.
	11:38am clarke: they are interesting to hear, frank, sometimes.
	♥ 11:38am dday: The Rascals. Garfield,NJ, hometown boys made good. And then there were 3. Sad they can't settle their differences & just be civil to each other.
	11:38am Bob: Stereo mix works for this
	♥ 11:39am disco_nap_: Didn't realize they were Jersey boys! Makes sense though because I heard them a lot growing up in NJ...mostly being played by my Boomer parents...
	♥ 11:40am nycmusicnerd: Greetings fellow nerds...Sorry it took me so long to join the party. Internet issues.
	♥ 11:40am Frank In Queens: @clarke, yeah, interesting relics from the time, and also pretty good for learning songs depending on the separation.
	♥ 11:40am dday: Recent books by both Felix Cavaliere & Gene Cornish are both good reads
	♥ 11:40am nycmusicnerd: Also: ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!! Rick Springfield is criminally underrated.
	11:41am clarke: yipes, nycmn! @Frank - u headed to rink, later??
	♥ 11:41am Roberto: Amin Son of a Gun
	♥ 11:41am disco_nap_: I like how cheerfully Johnny is telling us he is a mean son of a gun.
	♥ 11:41am Frank In Queens: @clarke, nah they're in Vegas tonight.
	♥ 11:41am dday: Rascals cut their live teeth at both The Barge on Long Island & The Choo Choo Club in Garfield,NJ. Family to me.
	11:42am clarke: gotcha - this is one day when there is little sports action.
	♥ 11:43am dday: @clarke: 3 NFL games today on NFL Network. I don't get it so...
	♥ 11:43am nycmusicnerd: Handy: I went last night. Honestly, not the best all-request show I've ever seen from RT, but still--it was RT. Can't complain about that.
	11:43am Tim from LH: I got to see The Rascals on the last night of their Broadway run,about ten years ago,all 4 original members. Dino was still putting on a show.
	11:44am clarke: i don't think any games i care about are on today. which is not like it has been. got an lsu basketball game and that's about it
	♥ 11:44am Squints: Bruins have a 1pm matinee.
	11:44am clarke: yessss!! i DONT mind!
	11:45am phat in lincoln: @clarke email sent to Mr. Shelley
	11:45am Bob: Wasn’t the Choo Choo club NRBQ’s early anchor? Is there a resource for information on that club anywhere? I guess I could Google
	♥ 11:45am disco_nap_: Heck yeah Buzzcocks
	11:45am clarke: mkay, phat - as per above, i don't have a lot going on this evening.
	11:46am clarke: @phat - do you know what the Shelley Show patch looks like?
	♥ 11:47am Handy Haversack: Glen Campbell has seen me tinkle!
	11:47am phat in lincoln: @clarke I'm not sure. Is the drawing of him at the microphone?
	♥ 11:48am dday: @Bob: The Choo Choo Club sat next to the railroad trestle on Passaic St. in Garfield NJ (hence the name). I don't think NRBQ were in that area back then & the club is long closed
	11:48am clarke: no, it is a legit looking patch. maybe someone has a photo
	11:48am Bob: Handy, that’s your autobiography title right there
	11:48am phat in lincoln: @clarke I don't get in until midnight. Lol. I book weird flights.
	♥ 11:49am disco_nap_: Whoa that was quite a note at the end there, Glen!
	11:49am clarke: oh, ok. well tomorrow is world cup final - but after that, we could meet up.
	11:50am egould: Damn that Buzzcocks number got me sprinting for the last two minutes of my run. Uphill! Good morning and thank you Michael Shelley.
	11:51am clarke: @phat - where you staying?
	11:51am phat in lincoln: @clarke oh shit, the final is tomorrow? Yes. We can meet up later.
	♥ 11:51am yerfriendpaul: Handy - was the tinkle flowing gentle on your mind?
	11:51am DG: Only Eddie (& brother David, who sang on some albums) were from Garfield. I think Danelli was from WFMU---land (Jersey City) while Cavaliere was from Pelham (NY) & Cornish was born in Ontario, but grew up in Rochester. But yeah, the Choo Choo Club was in Brigati's hometown, so they played there a lot, as well as a place in Westhampton (which I'm sure is gone now).
	11:52am phat in lincoln: @clarke Loews downtown after tonight. Tonight is Hyatt Regency downtown.
	♥ 11:52am Baja Joe: Good morning greetings to you Michael and Shelley-ites, just under the wire.
	11:52am clarke: @phat - the final starts a 9am here, nola time. i'm sure there will be plenty of bars open, ha ha.
	11:53am clarke: okay, i'm in the lower garden district, so not too far from downtown.
	11:54am phat in lincoln: Nice.
	11:55am dday: @DG: as I mentioned Eddie is family. His sister Anna was my Mom's best friend in HS and is my younger brother's godmother. The Barge was in Westhampton, LI..long gone.
	♥ 11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Checkerboards take third place. ⚽
	♥ 11:56am HyperDose: Yes sir Mick sir! 😎💨
	11:57am Moammar: Bobby Keys and some guys.
	11:57am clarke: loew's is right across from the casino which has a music venue called The Fillmore - check their schedule!
	11:57am dday: Favorite Stones song of all time for me
	♥ 11:58am Sweet Corn Lizzie: Dday I concur
	11:58am dday: This & If You Can't Rock Me
	11:59am phat in lincoln: Sweet
	11:59am clarke: gooder!!
	12:00pm clarke: @phat - that show Myron mentioned is worth a gander, and i see George Porter has a show at the Fillmore on monday night - he was in The Meters
	♥ 12:01pm disco_nap_: Awww Witchi Tai To <3
	♥ 12:02pm Handy Haversack: I should start chopping stuff for brunch, but Goblin's on my lap, and I'm feeling lazy ...
	12:02pm phat in lincoln: @clarke there's a Porter show on the 26th.
	12:03pm DG: I know this Witchi Tai To song/chant has been covered by other people...Brewer & Shipley, maybe? Remember hearing a different version on FM radio back in the day.
	12:03pm clarke: oh, he is usually playing around somewhere, tho. i'm too jaded to go to stuff like that, ha ha ha.
	♥ 12:03pm disco_nap_: Also The Supremes!
	12:05pm DG: dday: Thanks. I think I may've seen Eddie (& David?) at this UNICEF benefit in '82 or so, with Rick Derringer, Carmine Appice & others...if you or anyone else can confirm...but never the Rascals together. Are the brothers still doing shows, making music, etc.?
	♥ 12:06pm drr: Hi, @phat. Another NO person here. I looked at a bunch of local club calendars and it looks like it's going to be really slow. That show at BJ's should be fun. BJ's is a great spot anyway. Expect it to be crowded. In a fun way, of course.
	12:07pm clarke: mornin' Dave!!
	♥ 12:07pm Roberto: Where Does the World Go to Hide the Rolling Stones?
	♥ 12:07pm disco_nap_: Harpers Bizarre
	12:09pm clarke: so nice they played it twice!
	12:10pm phat in lincoln: @drr I may check that out.
	12:11pm clarke: Turntable One is actin' up. union dispute.
	12:11pm phat in lincoln: Week before Christmas is likely to be slow.
	12:11pm clarke: used to be nice when mermaid and circle bar were around - ain't there no mo.
	12:12pm clarke: i'm sure Benny Grunch & The Bunch are giggin' - ha ha ha.
	12:12pm bobobob plasticland: James cotton was Bobby blue bland half bro
	♥ 12:13pm drr: Yeah, Siberia and Santos are strictly metal for the holidays. And, no on Benny Grunch! He's recovering from a stroke.
	♥ 12:13pm Handy Haversack: We've had five people cancel for karaoke tonight so far. One COVID, three general sickness.
	12:13pm clarke: oh wow. dang bra why?
	♥ 12:15pm Squints: Now THIS is a Number. One. hit..
	12:15pm clarke: when i was a child, the big thing at xmas time was to go down to the Maison Blanche department store and see a puppet called Mr. Bingle in the front window. huge crowds!!
	12:15pm phat in lincoln: @drr zydeco at Siberia tomorrow night.
	12:16pm clarke: there ya go! we're too jaded for all dat.
	12:16pm kevin: Witchi-Ty-Toe was recorded by Brewer and Shipley Michael.
	♥ 12:16pm Michael Shelley: www.nola.com...
	12:17pm clarke: apparently Siberia got bought back by the original owner, so hopefully the booking reverts back to good stuff.
	12:17pm phat in lincoln: I used to see a lot of Zydeco at the Zoo Bar here in Lincoln.
	♥ 12:17pm nycmusicnerd: MY FAVORITE ROCKPILE SONG!!
	♥ 12:17pm Handy Haversack: clarke, in ATL one would go to Rich's dept. store and ride the Pink Pig monorail through a giant Xmas tree. Sometimes I think I made that up, but I'm pretty sure it was real.
	12:18pm clarke: Bingle was KING!!
	12:18pm kevin: The Cyrcle did Red rubber ball written by Paul Simon
	12:18pm clarke: dang Handy! that's cool. we just looked thru a store window.
	12:18pm phat in lincoln: I do seriously (knowing full well I'm a tourist) want to avoid tourists. Lol.
	♥ 12:18pm nycmusicnerd: A few years ago NL & Los Straitjackets did a double gig with the Mavericks. (One night only, in KY, no I didn't see it.) My dream now is to hear NL & Raul Malo duet on this one.
	12:19pm DG: Listening to this Rockpile song again, I'm amazed the Everly Bros. never recorded it (esp. as Edmunds produced them). Maybe it was written for them & they turned it down.
	12:20pm clarke: well, if you are avoiding tourists do NOT go to that zydeco show!! ha ha.
	♥ 12:21pm nycmusicnerd: DG: The first time I heard it I thought it was an Everly cover.
	♥ 12:21pm drr: @phat: Siberia is also a happy place for me. If you were getting here tonight you could see Congealed Putrescence there. Their booking is pretty eclectic.
	12:21pm clarke: dave's really pushing that show!! i sold my tix.
	12:22pm phat in lincoln: @clarke lol
	12:22pm phat in lincoln: @drr I get in at Midnight...
	♥ 12:23pm drr: I have and love that Rockpile LP and I've mentioned before how happy it makes me that they used a gatefold sleeve to advertise their tour dates for that year. But I don't have, and haven't heard, the 4-song EP of Everlys songs that originally came with it.
	♥ 12:23pm Squints: I'm afraid the putresence is runnier than you like it.
	12:23pm clarke: but, it is true that might be the only non-xmas show this week
	♥ 12:24pm drr: @Squints: you forgot to add "monsieur".
	12:24pm clarke: that's what i fear, Sq1
	12:25pm Moammar: The Rockpile Everlys EP was great fun. I bought that album and EP when they came out, not certain what I was getting into. I probably remember every word of "Poor Jenny" to this day.
	12:25pm clarke: is Goldie on the road, DRR??
	♥ 12:25pm Squints: But, monsieur. Ze putrescence is way-fair thin.
	12:25pm clarke: i have that EP - wonderful.
	12:25pm tonyb: I think that Rockpile tour fell apart? Think they did play Capitol in Passaic ‘tho?
	♥ 12:25pm Squints: GGY right here.
	12:26pm clarke: i'll have the lot, m'sure Squeents!!
	12:26pm egould: Got that Memphis soul.
	♥ 12:26pm drr: Goldie is enjoying her golden years, with new ball joints and control arms, and new belt and pulleys. And a new thermostat, so the heat works again. Confident she will make it to 200,000 miles soon.
	12:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ♄Saturday FMUvianz ! ~
	12:27pm clarke: awesome, David!! that means you can pick phat up, ha ha
	12:28pm clarke: when does Goldie pull out for chatta-boogie??
	♥ 12:29pm drr: Not going, Clarke--Thanksgiving is mandatory, Christmas is extremely optional.
	12:30pm clarke: oh, and the truck performed for t-giving? cool!!
	♥ 12:31pm Frank In Queens: Wow, 18?!
	12:31pm clarke: the Kid has a unique voice!! brilliant!
	12:31pm Moammar: Intimations of Mortality, by Michael Shelley
	♥ 12:32pm drr: and @phat, that zydeco show won't be a touristy one, clarke's being cynical. I know that opening band are just some kids (relatively speaking) with washboards and fiddles from my neighborhood. It'll probably be like the indie rock equivalent of zydeco. Expect enthusiasm.
	12:33pm jimphis: Just like me? Respect
	12:34pm clarke: DRR's right - i'm too jaded on what has become of the nola scene. don't listen to me.
	12:35pm adam: this is on commercial now. the commercial reminds me of an a24 movie called lamb.
	12:35pm Bob: I confess I have some sort of neurological block for the Mamas & Papas
	12:37pm Moammar: Sir Mack Rice is the only member of the royal family worth saving.
	♥ 12:38pm PaulRobeson1922: Hi Hi Hi!
	12:39pm KingOfJunk: WOW!!!
	♥ 12:40pm myron feld: speaking of the kid - check the new Juniper lp coming out in January - www.junipersongs.com
	12:41pm phat in lincoln: @drr sweet.
	♥ 12:41pm drr: Moammar: what about the Duke of Earl?
	12:42pm clarke: he can't decide.
	♥ 12:42pm Frank In Queens: @myron it's another gem!
	12:42pm clarke: and Squints is still makin' his mind up about Toledo.
	♥ 12:43pm Mailman Tom: Lyrics of wisdom!
	12:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I'd've called this FolkRawk ...slightly BaroquePop ok...
	12:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (...tho they're called 'Sunshine'...)
	♥ 12:47pm Sweet Corn Lizzie: I love this stuff because of my SoCal youth.
	12:47pm JimF: I can't stop singing "There She Goes Again" along to this chorus.
	♥ 12:48pm myron feld: as for royalty, I'm partial to the three Kings: Curtis, Floyd and Coleman
	12:49pm Listener Baby: Miss Elliott had exquisite pitch.
	♥ 12:53pm Michael Shelley: One of the best singers!
	12:54pm Toothgrinder Tom: A shanty town!
	♥ 12:54pm Handy Haversack: Desmond Dekker! Real nice. Thanks, MS! Have good days all youse!
	12:54pm Listener Baby: Mama Cass could really sing?
	12:55pm KingOfJunk: WOW!!!
	♥ 12:56pm Baja Joe: BBBBBucci
	12:56pm clarke: this show FLEW by! good'un. thnx, as always.
	♥ 12:56pm LastWhiteRhino: Da Booch !
	12:58pm clarke: he's no buddy!!
	12:58pm Bob: Terry: “Hey, Tommy. When is a door NOT a door?” Tommy: “hmmm, when is a door NOT a door? I don’t know” Terry: “When it’s Jim Morrison. Because he’s DEAD!”
	♥ 12:58pm Frank In Queens: Thanks Michael,, great show.
	12:59pm phat in lincoln: Great show!
	12:59pm egould: Who would applaud for that?!?
	12:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ MS ~
	12:59pm egould: Thanks Mike!
	♥ 12:59pm drr: bye bye
