	⚡ 4:46am Don in Tampere: This year is the 21st time I decided to drop the booze during Lent. Decided to up the ante this year and try to go vegan too. All bets off tomorrow for my birthday though.
	⚡ 4:46am Don in Tampere: And, just topped my SfL pledge with a one-off to Currents!

But since I'd been well and the isolationn period was over, I went to the gig but with an FFP2 mask. One of the replacements, a guy who did interesting things with saz and electronics, will probably join us on the new date of 17.6.
	⚡ 5:01am Brian in UK: ↳ fred @4:59 fred, no, do you have a link?
	5:02am Fox: ↳ McGroovey @3:47 Would my bunny have an outfit?

	5:07am fred: ↳ Brian in UK @5:01 4th Saturday of each month (11am there, 4pm for you I guess): beakuency.tumblr.com on Wave Farm: wavefarm.org...
	5:11am fred: I think Sleater-Kinney was the name of an exit in Washington state
	⚡ 5:11am tom tom the pipers son: brian, did you cop on ludlow street?

	⚡ 5:12am Brian in UK: Thanks, fred.
	5:19am Nick K: Fox how about those Peter Gaberal videos from the 80s
	5:20am Ike: Aunt Cookie did junk back in the day. RIP. And so did my friend Mike P. He described the sensation as “like being cradled in your mother’s arms” which is the only time anyone’s ever made it sound appealing to me, but unless I’m ever terminally ill, I’m staying the fuck away from it.
	5:21am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:11 I was living in CT at the time, Tom Tom. Only a dabbler.
	5:22am fred: ↳ Nick K @5:19 Nothing can top Kate Bush videos in that era
	⚡ 5:24am tom tom the pipers son: closest that i came to using heroin was being shot up with demerol for a severe sinus headache and infection in a hospital and it was amazing.
	5:24am Nick K: 120 minutes and Headbangers ball
	5:25am Brian D: 120 Minutes and Yo! MTV Raps were pretty good.

	5:26am Andrew Waterloo: Much Music: City Limits, The Power Hour, RU Receiving

	⚡ 5:34am Don in Tampere: I didn't know about Crook. But there is a town in Finnland called Varkaus, which means "theft"
	⚡ 5:35am Don in Tampere: Fred, Doc Chad isn't making it to Finland this tour, unfortunately, but tell him hello!
	⚡ 5:36am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Ike @5:30 it is a narcotic. the nurse shot me up in the butt while singing some sort of chinese lullaby and a wave of euphoria swept over me from my toes up to my head. they only gave me that one shot maybe because i expressed how much i liked it.
	5:41am Andrew Waterloo: Maybe Eugene is still touring with that massive book of his
	⚡ 5:42am Don in Tampere: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:36 I had alternating shots of demarol and morphine when I was in the ICU after being hit by a car when I was 14, but I was in no position to see whether it was pleasant. Later I had some demarol after my impacted wisdom teeth were cut out, and I hated it, just felt shaky and unable to control my muscles. Also hated the codeine they gave me after my knee replacement and quickly changed to naproxene and week after a week or two. I guess that might mean opioids aren't my thing.
	⚡ 5:43am Don in Tampere: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @5:41 If he hasn't sold them all, probably. I bought it when he was in Tampere, which was 4 or 5 years ago when we opened for him, and quite enjoyed reading it.
	5:45am fred: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @5:41 I'm halfway through it, and I might end my misery by throwing it at him. Or get him to sign it. It's infuriating yet compelling in a very Chad way
	⚡ 5:45am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Don in Tampere @5:42 wow... sorry for your bad experiences
	5:49am mr 6: Its Darrens theme music
	5:51am fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:45 I was supposed to get opioids after heart surgery, but because it's a controlled substance there had to be a cop in charge of the supply, and because it was a holiday he wasn't around, so I got weaned early A month ago I got codeine for a sciatica and started bleeding from my nose and ears. No opioids for me
	⚡ 5:54am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @5:45 my mother was recently in the hospital for a broken hip and was put on morphine after surgery. she got into a physical altercation with a nurse which involved some pinching and slapping. she thought she was dreaming it.
	⚡ 5:55am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ fred @5:51 sounds like i was lucky with the opiods
	⚡ 5:58am tom tom the pipers son: so long brian, fox and commenters... thanks!
	6:00am fred: Thanks!
