	👻 6/6 11:56am 12539: Irwin!
	👻 9:02am AnAnonymousParty: Something vague this way comes?
	12:04pm Listener Robert: What's with the double-headed hatchet, young lady? Going to fight the fires? And where'd that leg come from?
	12:09pm Listener Robert: Oh, that's not a hatchet, that's her arm.

	3:00pm Matt from Springfield: Hey, magical Sixth comment! Unless it's 10th? Or 20th now? If 6 Was 20... I like today's painting - mostly for the technique. A few paint strips, emphasizing the vertical up-to-down views, and they can represent two women with it, at least from a certain distance. As for the fried-egg halo, perhaps breakfast is on their minds...
	3:00pm Handy Haversack: Irwin. Irwinners.

	3:03pm love2laf: That white line makes it seem like the fried egg may also be like a boomerang that came from behind them.
	3:03pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Ballade" by "Kenny Drew" Oooooh, this is nice. Jazz of a smooth nature, let's call it instead of..
	3:03pm Crosby in KC: Hello, Irwin and everyone!
	3:04pm Handy Haversack: I heard actual in-person live jazz last night. Sort of Dixieland, I think. Bass, trumpet (piccolo trumpet? is that a thing?), clarinet, piano, guitar. At Mona's on Ave. B.
	3:05pm Laura L: This Kenny Drew tune is a lovely song for this lazy (well, not really) but certainly hazy day of summer.

	3:06pm Juli: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:06 So cool!~
	3:07pm Hughie Considine: If only the next DJ had an "I" name (DJ Ignatius in the house!) that would complete the hat trick from Ira to Irwin. Ai yi yi ...

	3:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ sydnius @3:14 and then there's that.
	3:15pm Andrea C from the app: Good evening Irwin and everyone!
	3:16pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: Mary Wing wasn’t on today so I went on shortwave and this crazy preacher is screaming this is the RAPTURE
	3:16pm love2laf: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:15 Happy evening to you Andrea, hope all is well. I can say that internet and laptop have been stable for a full day now. It absolutely was the wi-fi portion of the router going funky.
	👻 3:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ira & Irwin today. The "I"s have it!
	3:17pm sydnius: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:16 grift while the sun is red 🔴
	3:17pm Dean: Didn't The Residents do an album or EP played on toy instruments? Maybe that doesn't count. "The sky is rising! The sky is rising!"
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:07 I was offline for a few years - I've seen K8 comment here and have seen in mentioned that her (current) band has played live on FMU before - could you fill me in on what is that band?
	3:18pm tonyb: Air no longer orange in Cranford, now blue-ish. An improvement…
	👻 3:18pm DjLorraine: Irwin and listeners I hope you are having a fine day (without inhalation of fine particles)
	3:19pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: It’s a good thing I’m on my psych meds because this would have scared the heck outta me.
	3:20pm The Butterman: ↳ tonyb @3:18 Yo Tony, did we ever speak on the street when you were crossing the road in a WFMU hat. I was in my car? On Riverside ?
	3:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:17 No, none of her current bands has done so yet, Matt. Maybe one day!
	3:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Do You Feel the Same?" by "Flyying Colours" This song is fantastic.
	3:21pm Dean: The Residents' Diskomo/Goosebumps EP includes at least one track with what could be toy piano, but I think it's a toy xylophone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R36w8EGJuv8
	3:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:20 Here's hopin'!
	3:23pm The Oscar: ↳ brainiac @3:08 So, here's a crazy story: When I was in college in Boston, there was a weird little junk/record shop in the Fens called "King of Records." One of my best finds there was a little wooden toy piano with a great jangly tone. One day I came home and my roommate was playing a recording of what sounded like my toy piano. When I asked if he recorded that, he told me it was actually the song "Sunshine and Clouds (And Everything Proud)" by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, which had just come out. But then he showed me the crazy part: examining the piano, he discovered the letters "CYHSY" scrawled on the bottom of!
	3:24pm Juli: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:12 Sorry to hear that.
	3:24pm Matt from Springfield: Here's a good updated air quality map: fire.airnow.gov It's even come down my way - hazy already from humidity but the wildfires are affecting here as well. (Go to North New England, it's the only place on the whole East Coast with actual 'healthy' air ratings.)
	3:24pm love2laf: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 That is a crazy story, and a wonderful one.
	3:24pm Katharsis: Hellos Irwin and all
	3:25pm brainiac: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 It was meant to be. The spirit of the toy piano demanded it.
	3:26pm tonyb: Butterman: probably not me. 90th & 5th my turf. Bluestone Cafe every morning (except today)
	3:26pm Hughie Considine: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 I remember when they were the band of the moment and everyone was talking about them and I wondered when it was cool to finally abbreviate to "Clap Your Hands" when discussing them. It was a moral choice -- you had to decide for yourself.
	3:26pm x: yaaaaaa
	3:26pm AdmireMyChives: the light is on permanent yellow sunset in Philadelphia
	3:26pm love2laf: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:24 Thanks for that link, shows Canada air quality too, I had no luck finding it earlier today. Assumed it was US only.
	👻 3:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Had enough of staring at clouds of forest fire smoke? Stare at clouds of volcanic smoke instead. www.usgs.gov... 🌋
	3:30pm G: If someone has HVAC, set it to recirculate. Don’t use in-window AC if avoidable. Brings in outside air constantly.
	3:32pm Hughie Considine: Oh no, nothing worse than a drunk Ouzo enthusiast.
	3:32pm sydnius: ↳ G @3:30 filters work a treat!
	3:33pm sydnius: ↳ G @3:30 and most in-window AC doesn’t exchange unless you connect the vent
	👻 3:33pm xtrakrispy: The friend was Joni Mitchell
	3:34pm Dean: My Greek wine of choice lately is Malihin-Chryssos Old Vines Vidiano PGI Rethymno. Also the New Vines release.
	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ xtrakrispy @3:33 Cohen get out your cape / And we can leave my lightweight friend sleeping on your futon...
	3:36pm Dean: What do successful poets get paid per verse?
	3:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "How Gus Became a Poet" by "Gus Bodenheim" Gusophobes are afraid of strategic nomenclature counter-intuitivity.
	3:37pm Dean: Ezra Pound
	3:37pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Dean @3:36 I made a killing one year in poetry when I was young and got out of the game while I was still on top.
	3:38pm Dean: Now you can NFT all of your juvenilia, @Handy.
	👻 3:38pm DjLorraine: My internet cut out and i was like “wHat?“
	3:39pm PaulRobeson1923: And he came to a door.
	3:39pm Dean: Speaking of comedy legends, Pat Cooper has left the building.
	3:40pm Andrea C from the app: @Irwin have you told this anecdote in the past already? Sorry for asking but it felt like it. I knew every bit of it. It’s freaking me out
	3:40pm Andrea C from the app: Please and thank you
	3:40pm Chris Hiatt: Afternoon, all. Back inside for the duration.
	3:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @3:38 Hwhy does that happen at the least convenient times?!
	3:41pm Irwin: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:40 My friend emailed it to me this morning. Literally 10am. It happened to him yesterday.
	3:42pm dday: and so far, no one has played The Airborne Toxic Event. Come on Out Maybe?? "Black lungs, headlights, heading off to the city tonight"
	3:42pm Irwin: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:40 You have clairvoyant skillz!
	3:42pm Carmichael: ↳ Dean @3:39 Too bad, although he was 93. Boy, next thing you know Jan Murray will go. Or Shecky Greene.
	3:42pm Andrea C from the app: Ok thank you. It’s weird. I’ll take it as is.
	3:44pm Andrea C from the app: I wouldn’t go as far a clairvoyance , but thank you for the compliment.
	3:44pm Irwin: I name-checked Orchestra Luna in the first mic break and no one flinched or raised an eyebrow. Good.
	3:44pm PaulRobeson1923: This is the end
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @3:42 It was a fun anecdote, in every case.
	3:45pm Andrea C from the app: I enjoyed it, don’t get me wrong. I had to ask.
	3:46pm Irwin: LC was a ladies' man, but he was a gentleman too.
	👻 3:46pm rrg: ↳ Irwin @3:41 He posted it on Facebook also.
	3:46pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:41 My day gig is working for a wine importer. That sort of thing happens to me all the time when I'm meeting with accounts, though nothing as interesting as that story!
	3:47pm Dean: Had to double-check Jan Murray. He's already kaput.
	3:48pm Andrea C from the app: rrg I don’t think I have him as friend. My sole Facebook activity is Glen Jones Cheers group tbh
	3:48pm dday: I saw on Fox Weather Channel..The AQI (Air Quality Index) website has NYC at #1 in world's worst air quality today. Not to be outdone The Weather Channel is live on the ground in NYC with it's reporters wearing scuba tanks to breathe. Meanwhile, CNN's weather reporters are running down 5th Avenue...on fire
	3:48pm Mister Dobalina: Had to get up to turn up the volume on this one.
	3:49pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Whatever I Am (You Made Me)" by "Nina Simone" Wow, Nina sings bluesy soul! Never heard this side of her before! Might even be a good nomination for Northern Soul playlists.
	3:49pm annette: she puttin a spell on you all.
	3:50pm Hughie Considine: Orange skies Carnivals and cotton candy and you And I love you, too You know I do
	3:50pm love2laf: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:48 I still haven't posted mine, was so involved with the a/c install I took a toast pic and never posted.
	👻 3:51pm DjLorraine: Jon Stewart is probably saying “we've been trying to explain...this"
	3:51pm Dean: Berkeley hometown boy, Bernard. Smith's from Sacramento.
	👻 3:51pm rrg: And then there's Milton DeLugg's "Orange Colored Sky".
	3:51pm Ciggy: Orange skies similar to Blade Runner
	3:52pm Dean: Why all of a sudden does nobody want to commune with nature?
	3:52pm steveo: You stumped me again! Good afternoon.
	3:52pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Poor Man's Speedball" by "Will Bernard (ft. Ches ... I'm definitely detecting some ninth chords. And I don't even play the jazz guitar.
	3:52pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:04 Piccolo trumpet is a thing!
	3:52pm AdmireMyChives: if I were to do some yard work, would a 0.3 micron mask help at all?
	3:54pm Irwin: ↳ Song: "Bird's Lament" by "Rattlemouth" Moondog tune.
	3:54pm annette: just relax and savour the moon when ya get up fer a pee during the night
	3:54pm Dean: Don Cherry, Joe McPhee...piccolo trumpet players
	3:54pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Poor Man's Speedball" by "Will Bernard (ft. Ches ... That was cool. Ches is one of my favorite drummers.
	👻 3:54pm NC Mark: Moondog!

	3:55pm AdmireMyChives: ↳ annette @3:54 Well I do that anyway
	3:55pm PaulRobeson1923: America can get rid of the trees and that lazy moon. We can do anything

	3:56pm annette: has every one forgot WHEN SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES
	3:56pm jt: "Bird's Lament " was such a huge hit in Germany. I met an older couple ( 70's) who remember dancing to this song at clubs.
	👻 3:56pm DjLorraine: Plus writer Willie Stein.
	3:56pm Mister Dobalina: Shame that the Moondog doc never materialized.
	3:56pm Juli: I am l a z i s h during day hours & alive at night haha I think its because I don't have money Nor a studio to perk my interest in daytime Night offers me sum mystery to work w lol
	3:56pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dean @3:54 Did Don Cherry play piccolo trumpet? I though he played the pocket trumpet, which is a different critter.
	3:57pm AdmireMyChives: wasn’t that a wfmu show? Moonlight Pee Shivers?
	3:57pm Irwin: ↳ Mister Dobalina @3:56 Curious about that too. The project evaporated.
	3:58pm Handy Haversack: Heading home. If I make it there without creosoting, I'll join you all again. Thanks, Irwin.
	3:59pm D Rok: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:58 Goodspeed Handy!
	3:59pm Dean: I think you are correct, @Chris Hiatt. Same for McPhee!
	3:59pm Mister Dobalina: A real interesting article about how Moondog might have been a bit of a racist, but how can you be such a person when your blind? www.newyorker.com...

	4:01pm love2laf: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:58 Best of luck Handy.
	👻 4:02pm DjLorraine: Be safe. 88 is a # to remember for air saturation danger.
	4:02pm sydnius: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @4:00 why must the solution always involve pillaging?
	4:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: That's just an Expressionist painting.
	4:03pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Carla" by "Jimmy Giuffre 3" Ah, Carla Bley was the wife of Jimmy Giuffre.
	4:04pm Feldy: Some really nice jazz selections emanate from this here show
	4:04pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Dean @3:59 They're cute little guys, same pitch as regular Bb trumpet. Piccolo trumpets are employed in baroque music quite a bit, an octave higher than the regular trumpet.
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Hiatt @4:04 P-Trumpet as per 'PennyLane' of course.
	4:06pm Dean: But you played "Jesus Maria" almost a year ago: https://wfmu.org/playlists/shows/116663 ...and a Third Stream something-or-other in 2009: https://gopher.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/31474

	4:07pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:03 Seriously? She was married to Paul, no? Am I misinformed?
	4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Chris Hiatt @3:56 Always hear Cherry played 'Pocket Trumpet' ...& thot of him therefore as always having it in his actual Pocket - & so always ready to Play any & everywhere...
	4:08pm Irwin: ↳ Irwin @4:07 They were indeed married. Whew!
	4:08pm AdmireMyChives: People should check out ‘What Happened, Miss Simone?’ on netflix if they’re interested. Great doc produced by her daughter.
	4:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:07 ...tho carrying a regular Trumpet is no especial chore compared to most things I'd reckon...
	👻 4:10pm rrg: ↳ DjLorraine @3:56 Willie Stein also worked as a producer with Mark Goodson and Bill Todman for years, helping (among other things) to prep the imposters on "To Tell the Truth". The TTTT panelists often remarked on how good a job he did.
	4:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:08 I was about to say, I was just citing what you just said! Remembering that reference and the interesting connection. Carla did acquire the 'Bley' from Paul Bley, and kept it as a professional name.
	4:11pm Dean: Did she also marry Steve Swallow?
	4:11pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @4:01 Hey, Mo. Almost missed your salutations. Greetings.
	4:11pm StringOFperils: She was Carla Borg until she married Paul Bley. Then, after that, she was called the boss.

	4:11pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @4:11 She married Michael Mantler. Karen Mantler is their daughter.
	4:12pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:05 Yep!
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:09 ...& making Brass instruments of various sizes & sundry varietals on the same basic design no great mechanical challenge I suppose...
	4:12pm Dean: Oh, right! Karen is Carla's spit-and-image.
	4:12pm listener 126464: Hi Irwin, everyone. Love this program much.
	👻 4:12pm rrg: ↳ Irwin @3:57 Every couple of years I still get a "we're still working on it" update from Holly Elson, sent to the Kickstarter supporters.
	4:13pm Dean: And of all people, Markus Stockhausen has wielded the piccolo trumpet: https://www.discogs.com/master/686922-Markus-Stockhausen-Detmolder-Kammerorchester-Christoph-Poppen-New-Colours-Of-Piccolo-Trumpet
	4:14pm Irwin: ↳ rrg @4:12 I'm sure she needs a major infusion of funds. That's what plagues and imperils many worthy projects.
	4:14pm Matt_: ↳ Song: "Stop" by "Black Rebel Motorcycle Club" I really liked BRMC's first album - are they still around? Is this new?
	👻 4:14pm DjLorraine: ↳ rrg @4:10 I remember hearing or reading "Mark Goodson and Todman Production
	4:16pm Dave Miss: Haven’t heard motorcycle club in a minute
	👻 4:16pm G: Google made a million bucks???
	4:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt_ @4:14 BRMC wigkey : en.wikipedia.org... - they do the one thing, it seems. A good thing. They do good.
	4:17pm Dean: Per wikipedia, Bley and Swallow are partners.
	4:17pm Irwin: ↳ G @4:16 Can ya beat that?
	4:17pm Matt_: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:16 Interesting - tanks!
	4:18pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Google routinely pays $250Million in Fines & doesn't blink.
	4:18pm StringOFperils: 'Find a different corner.' Good advice.
	4:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ G @4:16 ONE - MILLION - DOLLARS!!
	4:20pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:19 That's more moneys than I can hide under my mattress!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:19 [...pinky in corner of mouth - into CloseUp...]
	4:20pm Dean: Don't get carried away. They pay taxes on that cool million. And they employ a bunch of people they have to pay.
	4:21pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't Be Doctor Evil
	4:22pm Andrea C from the app: Have a good night Irwin and everyone. Peace.
	4:22pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Irwin!
	4:22pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Andrea C from the app @4:22 Good Night, Andrea C!
	4:23pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Pay Workers !! ...gawdam Socialists...
	4:23pm Dave Miss: Early oughts. I wonder if irwin is going to play some Dag next
	4:24pm love2laf: ↳ Andrea C from the app @4:22 Nite Andrea, sleep well.
	4:27pm Ochre Ogre: Gotta get a million dollars in 100 bills, easier to tuck away, so Iv'e heard.
	4:27pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:10 Maybe Irwin said Carla "the wife of" Paul Bley and I misheard, full disclosure Jimmy Giuffre was never married to Carla Bley; Juanita Giuffre was his only wife. Carla however has been linked to other jazz musicians, Paul and Michael Mantler among them.
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:27 That is 10,000 Benjamins.
	4:29pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:28 How many "suitcases" does that make, mathematically??
	4:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:28 ...imagine the very smell...
	4:30pm PaulRobeson1923: Yoko Ono knows what $ can do for people
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:30 ...& what it can't...
	4:30pm Matt_: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:30 changes everything?
	4:30pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:27 After you pledge like 200 of those $100 bills to WFMU
	4:31pm Matt from Springfield: With Benjamins as the highest issued denom, a "briefcase" should comfortably fit $50-100k, about what you expect from action movies and TV. Now if you're paying off a cool $one mill, you'll need a duffelbag or something to stuff it in. (And of course, the identical duffelbag where you escape with the real million...)
	4:32pm PaulRobeson1923: All we are saying is… pledge to WFMU 1 Million dollars. This is NYC. A million is viewed as small number
	4:32pm sydnius: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:31 silly matt, It’s a monkey NFT
	4:33pm PaulRobeson1923: It’s just a million dollars. & what is a million when you are supporting the greatest and oldest freeform Radio station in America? America
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:33 Not even one years' minimal budget.
	4:34pm Juli: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:33 I would never be a billionaire because I'd give it away
	4:34pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:31 Then stash it in a crawl space like Walter White did in Breaking Bad.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1923: All we are sayying, is give peace and WFMU a Million dollars a chance
	4:35pm BH: Yankees (and Phillies) games have been postponed for today, in case anybody was aspiring to attend a baseball game with doomsday amounts of smoke around
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: A single Billion is the new One Million. Even tho it's 1,000 Xs more... Soylent Lottery is People, btw...
	4:35pm sydnius: ↳ BH @4:35 aww no free respiratior? dangit
	4:36pm PaulRobeson1923: All we are sayying is give peace a chance
	4:36pm brainiac: Now where are we supposed to park?

	4:38pm Irwin: ↳ Feldy @4:38 Where would we be without the likes of YOU?
	4:39pm Juli: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:38 Oh yes I was planning on that as well::: I still want to form non profits and foundations if possible::::

	4:39pm brainiac: ↳ Song: "Invincible Bubble" by "John Medeski's Mad Skillet" That was a great breakdown
	4:40pm Ochre Ogre: A guard at the Tom Ford in NYC told me one time a guy paid for his purchase in all cash from a gym bag.
	4:40pm Juli: ↳ Juli @4:39 Giving me...:{{{{{{
	4:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:38 Indeed! Us listeners are fighting NOISE POLLUTION, by having the sounds go into our appreciative heads instead of those befuddled plasticsuitman normies' heads! And they accuse US of listening to "noise"!
	4:42pm Irwin: ↳ Juli @4:39 I'm getting the DD from the sudden influx of rats in my neighborhood, probably from the streateries that the city refuses to remove, even tho they're empty 95% of the time and no one's gonna eat outdoors while the skies are grey and the air is brown.
	4:43pm Juli: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Oof I hope the problems resolve soon for yu!~
	4:43pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:40 If it's legal to... You can't do that for airline tickets anymore, and in Italy they were trying to fight money laundering by making all purchases above 1000 EUR as cashless - not sure how that went.

	4:48pm love2laf: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:46 Was thinking the same thing, except the racoons, nature's version, are persistent once someone's fed them and they become a huge nuisance. Still better than rats.

	4:51pm Rich in Washington: Are people in the region making homemade fan/filter conglomerations like we were in the Pacific Northwest yet? You couldn't find a furnace filter for hundreds of miles during the wildfires.
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Grease vs. the FCC" by "The Greaseman (Doug Tracht)" I remember The Greaseman, DC 101's sorta-successor to H. Stern.
	4:51pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:43 Interesting, in Sicily there are probably certain groups opposing that rule.
	4:52pm Feldy: Lookout when a DJ drops trou or announces a mattress-in-lane... things are gonna get wacky
	4:52pm Dan from Delco: I remember Anthony from Opie and Anthony doing his Greaseman impersonation.
	4:52pm spodiodi: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:51 i think maybe the precursor as well (?)

	4:55pm Juli: I guess if I'm going to learn coping skills I might as well learn them now.
	4:55pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "6 Shooter" by "Viagra Boys" DJ PerroCaliente gives these guys a fair amt of play
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Grease vs. the FCC" by "The Greaseman (Doug Tracht)" Seems a lot more Marshall McLuhan than HowardStern ever was. Vivid creative stuff. Almost like some HipHop in a way...
	4:56pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:50 Glad to hear!
	4:56pm love2laf: ↳ Juli @4:55 Hugs Juli, sometimes all we can do is hang on by one fingernail, and get through one more minute.

	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:49 Very interesting. We're kind of Eye of the Storm so to speak...
	4:57pm Juli: It reminds me of that movie Wristcutters out here:: Of the afterlife lol Thanks Love2lauf I can learn to be strong.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ brainiac @4:56 Countering mayhem with other mayhem. Certainly works for me while listening to WFMU.
	4:58pm Irwin: ↳ spodiodi @4:55 At least one DJ refuses to play them because of the band's name. I think they're terrific. Tons o' fun, and better musicianship than you might assume from the often-silly, if not downright immature, song topics.
	4:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:57 "Wind patterns in your favor - collect 50 breaths of fresh air"
	4:59pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Juli @4:53 I'd assume that something good at filtering particulates (those N95s we laid in for The Plague are good!) should do a fine job of keeping the tiny CHUNKS out of your lungs. Gaseous aromatics would make it through, but I'm hoping there aren't huge levels of those many miles away from the source!
	4:59pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Right, the one and perhaps only truly vile creature of all the animals close to human habitats.
	4:59pm Dean: My morning coffee shop plays stuff like Viagra Boys and a wild assortment of other stuff. Among the regulars, a guy whose wife is a DJ at the Berkeley campus station. "She grew up listening to WFMU," he reports to me.
	4:59pm Ike: ↳ Jeff Moore @4:52 I grew up in a rural part of Maryland just out of reach of D.C. FM radio, so the Greaseman was like an ephemeral legend of sorts to the schoolkids of my town. Those few who had heard him would try to describe the experience to the others. He loomed large in our imaginations.
	5:01pm Fredericks: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:16 It's always The Rapture. Do you recall the woman who fell out of a moving cars' sunroof?
	👻 5:02pm chris in the redwoods: just saw that Viagra Boys are opening for Queens of the Stone Age at a venue near me soonish...
	5:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:58 We were quite in the path of it earlier up here...
	5:03pm Fredericks: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:08 Jack, I'm halfway through your Drag Show.
	5:03pm Larry in Merrlin: Grease Man?! The DC area shock jock of the 1980s-90s. He was creative for being "irksome." Then was fired for making one more racist joke ... in 1999.
	5:04pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Ike @4:59 An interesting scene you set! Puts me in mind of people who had cable trying to explain MTV and HBO things to us antenna people.
	5:04pm BH: I think the Viagra Boys were just mentioned on a commercial on the radio station i'm listening to around here (as being part of some concert that I don't recall), so it's possible the Viagra Boys are leaking out of their containment pod?

	5:10pm Will: It takes some daring (and undeniable good taste) to play this great tune. "I want all things to make sense, so we'll be happy instead of dead." Thanks Irwin.
	5:10pm Ike: ↳ Jeff Moore @5:04 I had that experience too, at least for a good chunk of my youth. We had cable for a few years here and there, but mostly antenna. There wasn't even an NBC station in my area, so as a little kid, when I heard about ALF, I really wanted to see it. Of course, today ALF is known for being fucking terrible! And apparently it was a complete nightmare to produce as well. The actors had to step carefully so they didn't fall into the holes made for the puppeteers.

	5:10pm coelacanth∅: (i heard the ambosia album several years before i read cat's cradle)
	5:10pm ironybread: Prog is just nature's way of saying "This band plays better than you"
	5:10pm spodiodi: i guess that's their loss. i don't know them very well, but like what i've heard incl. the tune you played... now i'm going to spend more time than i should (any) trying to figure out which dj :)
	5:11pm coelacanth∅: ↳ brainiac @5:09 i wish about 8 more Vonnegut books would be discovered
	5:11pm Irwin: ↳ ironybread @5:10 It's also a way of saying "This band is better at math than you."
	5:12pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Juli @4:55 I have been lax, but a usual meditation practice is beneficial for many issues including brain function.
	👻 5:13pm Franco Twinkie: I saw The Lounge Lizards ONCE. It was at The Lone Star in 1985. For those who don't know, The Lone Star was the antithesis of downtown cool. John Lurie obviously hated playing in this tourist dump, and was voluble about it to the point of exasperation.

	5:13pm Will: @ ironybread: Good one!
	5:14pm Dean: I've learned that Glenn Gould's Bach is part of the soundtrack to the movie based on Slaughterhouse-Five, but that two composers have set his words (from where?) to music. One, E.D. Grana, uses Vonnegut's lyrics for his piece Stones, Time and Elements: A Humanist Requiem. The other is Christoph Enzel, whose Close to the Edge (I kid you not) has lyrics by Vonnegut.
	5:14pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:10 Their first, more prog-like album if I recall. Ola coela!

	5:17pm PaulRobeson1923: How do U know the likker has no Fentinil in it
	5:18pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:14 hey Matt! i think you're right, but i've only heard 2 ambrosia albums. 'borrowed this one from the public library in my teens and made a tape of it. the other one is Awful!
	5:18pm coelacanth∅: (and it's called "180". .. appropriate i guess)
	5:18pm Dean: That's informative stuff, @brainiac. "So It Goes"...duh! Never made the connection. But "Uncle John's Band"? That's terrific.
	5:19pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:17 I was a Vonnegut fan until Breakfast of Champions. After that, zero interest in anything else he wrote.
	5:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Cindy" by "American Chamber Music Group (Tom Bent... FOLK ALERT!! This is an old'un, two old'uns actually, combined into a "zipper" song - take a song and append it to another. This is a very "arranged" version of it, chorus and instruments. I only heard basic guitar versions before.
	5:19pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:16 slightly envious!
	5:20pm PaulRobeson1923: How do i know the beer is Fentinil free?
	5:20pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:19 He was very bitter and depressed when he wrote that. He was also bitterly disappointed in the book himself.
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ gone with the wind @5:16 Afternoon wind! Bringing in the fresh air today, we hope? :)
	5:20pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ brainiac @5:20 Too many Paul Mauls And fentintil free likker
	5:20pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ rrg @5:15 You should check out the Kaplan Brothers cover of King Crimson's 'Epitaph.' Heard long ago on Irwin's show.
	5:20pm coelacanth∅: Irwin that's one of his weak ones. he wrote some of his best work both before and after that.
	5:21pm Dean: And "Blue Monday," another duh!
	5:21pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:20 It was ... what's the word? Facile. Shallow. Buffoonery. Hackwork.
	5:21pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:18 "180 - 'cause there's money to be made from schlock!"
	5:21pm Juli: ↳ Jeff Moore @4:59 Tyyyyy
	5:22pm Dean: I think Irwin is saying he was a fan up through Breakfast of Champions...? I don't think it's one of his weak ones, might even be his best (as I read him), but I can see how earlier works prevail, too. Cat's Cradle, Mother Night...
	5:22pm Juli: Also ty to the person who spoke on mindfulnesss I have many books and much practice in such avenues of the mind
	5:23pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:21 Wouldn't be surprised if he was drinking heavily at the time. It's not for those squeamish of certain forbidden words.
	5:23pm Irwin: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:20 That was around the time I discovered Mencken and Bierce. I had no further need for KV's cheap cynicism. HLM and Ambrose Bierce were hardcore.
	5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:21 yeah. make some crap for the american audience! did they fill arenas after that, like the kinks did after the conscious decision to create CRAP for america?!
	5:24pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @5:22 Exactly. I tried reading BoC but abandoned it one-quarter of the way in. It was a dumb book.
	5:24pm Dean: I see I'm mistaken. Breakfast was hackwork? It's been a long time since I've read any KVJ. Perhaps my tastes have changed. I remember thinking it was a joy.
	5:25pm Juli: ↳ Irwin @5:24 I didn't like the book about incest lolI stopped reading it,
	5:25pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Irwin @5:23 Bierce took part in the Battle of Shiloh- and lived
	5:25pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:24 Wait. You didn't finish it??? Dude.
	5:25pm Dean: I took you to mean you enjoyed BoC, but nothing thereafter.
	5:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Irwin @5:23 but are they as amusing as Vonnegut?
	5:26pm Dean: Squeamish? Don't read Roth's Sabbath's Theater. Whooo doggy.
	5:27pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:25 Loved everything he wrote to that point. Hated BoC. He lost me forever.
	5:27pm brainiac: I would say for all its shortcomings BoC was the first and foremost example of meta fiction. I'll stand by to be corrected.
	5:28pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ brainiac @5:20 This sure makes sense, because a year before Breakfast of Champions came out he wrote The Big Space Fuck short story that was included in a SciFi collection edited by Harlan Ellison. It's bleak. I also think he said after he wrote that that he was going to quit writing.
	5:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Iron Age Settlement" by "Mackenzie Crook & To... Good lesson in photo-interpretation..
	5:28pm Dean: Some of Joyce Carol Oates' work is, uhm, intense. But if you're up for 1300 pages of muscle-flexing macho posturing that skewers the CIA and FBI, do take on Mailer's Harlot's Ghost. You'll get drunk on reading about all the martinis.
	5:28pm coelacanth∅: i don't remember the end of breakfast of champions. that's how much it impressed me. but after that he made galapagos (maybe my favorite?); slapstick; deadeye dick (an unsung beauty); bluebeard (an unsung Masterpiece)...
	5:29pm Dean: Tristram Shandy for metafiction, no?
	5:29pm gone with the wind: Anyone going to the show at Monty Hall on Sunday?
	5:29pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:27 Perhaps I'm being unnecessarily negative. Let's just say I lost interest in KV at that point and ignored everything thereafter.
	5:30pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:28 Yeah, Bluebird was pretty good. Kind of a late period work for him?
	5:30pm Juli: I dig Tom Robbins:::} I don't read much fiction. Ty Irwin> Gtg pack pack pack.
	5:30pm Dean: And Robert Coover was doing it pre-BoC.
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "His Nibs" by "The Neil Cowley Trio" YES! Loud! Louder!! STOP!!!! "Give me your loudest song. No, that's too loud..."
	5:32pm coelacanth∅: Irwin that happened to me when my then-favorite band, the cure, released "the walk", followed by "the top". stopped paying attention. and when Bowie released all that thin white duke shlock in the late 70s-80s.... in both cases only to later find out they picked themselves up again.
	5:32pm brainiac: ↳ Dean @5:30 I deffer to your expertise
	5:32pm Feldy: ↳ Song: "His Nibs" by "The Neil Cowley Trio" That was fantastic
	5:34pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:30 the thing about bluebeard was that it just kind of trotted along, somewhat amusing but seemingly pointless... then exploded with amazingness!
	5:35pm PaulRobeson1923: Bierce survived the Battle of Franklin…
	5:35pm Asheville Jon: they are interviewing people to do a regular call in to 7SD, andy is going to pay them $50
	5:36pm coelacanth∅: deadeye dick kind of the same. one has to have faith that it's worth continuing. (unlike "the road" that i kept reading with faith instilled by McCarthy's other work - only for the road to go nowhere) ...(hey, wait...)
	5:36pm Irwin: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @5:35 They didn't call him "Bitter Bierce" for nothing.
	5:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Bidin' time, for the Boden heim.

	5:39pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Sleepytime prog, haha.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jazz is Blues for people that play too well.
	5:39pm Feldy: There's also that funky comet, the Hale Bop
	👻 5:39pm Franco Twinkie: I heard from someone who knows more about the subject than me, that jazz was a variation on jizz. Hot jazz, hot jizz - decide for yourself.
	5:39pm Frank from VT: Ah - 'Sleepytime prog' --- love it!
	5:40pm Harry Corvair: sleepytime prog
	5:40pm Hubig Pie: Payment for tonight's 7SD = $120 an hour for 4 minutes every other week
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Not 'jazz', but I wondered if there's a term for that older Blues music - pre-12 Bar, pre-Robert Johnson, it was that swingy Blues you hear on old 78s. Like a Dixieland vocal, but not as many instruments.
	5:41pm Will: Irwin, was that an actual copy of the Saturday Night at Tom Benton's 10" you played?
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 There were Work Songs, Ragtime ...Spirituals...
	5:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:39 not unreasonable... but "jazz" was/is a phrase that means "mess" or "disorder" (along those lines) and jazz was originally a derogatory term because it was improvised.
	5:42pm Onion: ↳ Hubig Pie @5:38 Fancy Lawnmower, by St. Arnolds is a great example, in my opinion.
	5:42pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... This Bodenheim babble already had a star. Late time I listened to Sonny Rollins I was much more distracted/annoyed by the nursery rhyme interjections.
	5:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 ...all that Jazz...
	5:42pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Also referred to as "race" recordings.
	5:44pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Probably was a term for it back then, in New Orleans.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 ...various African retentions in the Americas - where the first thing any Slaver or Manifest Destiny Imperialist did was Destroy all the Drums...
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Come again?
	5:45pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:34 Indeed! Holy crap.
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Will @5:41 No, it's available digitally. Retains the old 78rpm snap, crackle and surface noise.
	5:46pm Carmichael: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:44 I know there was "jump" music back then, although not sure what it was. Upbeat "jive" music? Jump 'n' jive?
	5:46pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Onion @5:42 Just looked that up. Does kolsch style means it's like lemonade shandy ?
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:41 "Ragtime" Blues may be a good term for the period I'm thinking of. Then there's all the Spiritual/Gospel Bluegrass/Folk Old Timey/Hill music that eventually blended into "Swing" music to become "Pop" music, R&R R&B Boogie C&W etc...
	5:48pm Dean: The Gary Strivant?!
	5:48pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Carmichael @5:46 Hence Joe Jackson's "Jumpin' Jive" tribute album - My own yardstick is that Jive is the older, 30s style, more Cab Calloway; Jump is newer, 40s style, more Louis Jordan. Jump is the immediate predecessor to Rock 'n Roll, along with "Boogie" variants from Jive.
	👻 5:48pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Sings like a moose. No, actually, that is mean to mooses.
	5:49pm dale: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" can't decide if this is being presented as incorrect music or as something more palatable.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tales of shifting Race Laws in literal differing neighborhoods in New Orleans. Some lighter skin folk ('high yellow') might have more European Musical instruction ...then the social mores would shift again - & they'd be thrown in with their darker skinned neighbors - who practiced different Musical Traditions & Expressions. When I say Jazz is Blues for people who play too well - I'm thinking of such origins in fact...
	5:49pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Moose lounge
	5:49pm Dean: It's just a demo. I bet George sounded just as rusty when he first committed it to magnetic tape.
	👻 5:49pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Did he ever do Yesterday? That would be something, too.
	👻 5:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 Of course. Secondhand information rarely stand up to scrutiny. 'I jazzed in my pants' somehow doesn't square up.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Slaves were literally prohibited from Jumping.
	5:49pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:45 See myself @5:46 - I can't think of artists offhand, but I think the others helped me nail down some term for it. Remember that "Homesickness Blues" from 1916? That's an even more 'out-there' variety of that older Blues.
	5:50pm MarciB: This guy (Gary Stivant) reminds me of Johnny "Bowtie" Barstow!
	5:50pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Speechless
	5:50pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" He's got an interesting concept of intonation. I don't entirely not like that concept.
	5:51pm MarciB: ↳ Doug in MP @5:50 yup!
	👻 5:51pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" "I don't know, I don't know" is right.
	5:51pm dale: i keep hearing sinatra sing 'stick arooooooound JACK!'
	5:51pm Dean: OED: Forms: 1900s jas (rare), 1900s jascz (nonstandard, rare), 1900s jasz (nonstandard, rare), 1900s jaz (rare), 1900s– jass, 1900s– jazz. Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: jasm n. Apparently a variant of jism n.
	5:51pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:50 It's almost as if the vibrato rescues the pitch from total calamity.
	5:52pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" I've never heard so many things be so precisely off
	5:52pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Big finish!
	5:52pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" TheBeatles did in fact like to end on 6ths - @ first, against George Martin's advice...
	5:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Oh I loved that last note
	👻 5:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @5:51 Thank you for the last word...again!
	5:52pm dale: ↳ Dean @5:51 scatman crothers was on mike douglas and mike said 'jazz' and scatman corrected him and said that was a dirty word.
	5:53pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Like to hear him cover Sympathy for the Devil.
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:52 ...because Martin thot it old-timey & corny...
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:49 The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival ("JazzFest") is a huge thing in a park now, but the very first one premiered at Congo Square in NO - most appropriately. It's just a bricked public square now with some displays nearby Louis Armstrong Park, but I paid a visit when I was down there for JazzFest - a sacred site, this was the birthplace of genuinely "American" music - where slaves were allowed to play their music one day a week, and others heard and adapted that music...
	👻 5:53pm G: ↳ Dean @5:51 Yes, Dean. Jazz/Jizz/Jism/Jasm were 1800s terms for sperm/ejaculate. In early baseball, a "jazz ball" was a term for a pitch with weird lively movement. Music picked it up from baseball -- weird, lively, unpredictable, etc.
	5:53pm will from croton: tony clifton?
	5:53pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" Suddenly realizing how much Pavement owes to the Modern Lovers
	5:53pm Dean: Gotta find that clip, @dale. When my mom was "waitressing" (which is what we then called it) Scatman was one of her regular customers.
	5:54pm Roberto: oh durn, I missed the Greaseman. 1993 called and I didn't answer.
	👻 5:54pm G: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 They still have small festivals in Congo Square every year.
	5:54pm Carmichael: I was just listening to this last night! had to satisfy my 3 Dog Night fix and found the original.
	5:54pm spodiodi: ↳ G @5:53 wow. never would have guessed
	👻 5:54pm 12539: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:54pm Dean: OED proclaims the advent of jism=semen in 1899. Prior to that it meant energy, strength.
	5:55pm Ochre Ogre: Thanks Irwin! Don't breathe too deeply in the smoky zones folks.
	5:55pm spodiodi: thanks, Irwin!
	👻 5:55pm G: ↳ spodiodi @5:54 It's been documented from contemporary written sources by the American Dialect Society.
	👻 5:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" This is a great song no matter who covers it.
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 The very spot where it transmuted, in other words, from Ritual Participation to Spectator Entertainment. Tho one also wonders about origins aside from New Orleans in the Americas. But there it all was...
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:53 "Minor Sixths" - hard to play on guitar, but a took the transcription of the Beatles "Flying" to my guitar teacher to learn. He IDed the notes as "minor sixths" and showed me how to finger them. Many Beatles songs have difficult chords, but rewarding to hear (even more rewarding to play them right!)
	5:55pm dale: ↳ G @5:54 who knows how many times he was on mike. not as many as mason reese no doubt.
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: this is pretty shitty compared to 3 dog night's version!
	5:56pm Ike: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" ACK, ptooey! Time to switch over to Ridgewood Radio on the Give the Drummer stream!
	5:56pm jan: Shambala in an earlier incarnation would writhe in my ears.
	5:56pm Dean: Check out Mike Douglas with co-host Sly Stone when Muhammad Ali is a guest. Yikes.
	5:56pm Onion: Well done Irwin. Thank you!
	👻 5:56pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:55 Be kind. No one can stand up to Three Dog Night.
	5:57pm Chris Hiatt: Thanks, Irwin! And good evening to you all. If you're in the smoke zone, be safe.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Thanks, Irwin. A great afternoon. Catch you all again soon. And keep that air conditioning running for the next few days.
	5:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:55 I discovered the "local" non-Delta variety a couple years ago, but still need to deep-dive and learn more about this: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:57pm Carmichael: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:55 The Dog's version was well-produced, lush and stacked, a lot like a typical ABBA song.
	5:57pm spodiodi: Matt from Springfield, thanks for the Stern / Greasman info!
	5:57pm gone with the wind: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:20 ~smiling~
	5:57pm listener 126464: Thanks Irwin!
	5:57pm The Butterman: Tanks, Irwin. Pretty pretty good.
	5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Smoke Gets In Our Eyes today, but Irwin takes us to Shambala! (Just watch for those monks and hippies with incense...!) Thanks Irwin! Have a good evening, Irwinauts!
	5:58pm gone with the wind: you go Irwin! stand your ground will ya?
	5:58pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 Congo Square is also where you can go see opera performed at the Mahalia Jackson theater for the performing arts
	5:58pm tranewreck: Thanks for the high air quality Irwin
	5:58pm Matt formerly jetboy: Good times we’re had by all - thanks Irwin!
	5:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ gone with the wind @5:57 :) And a good evening to you, too! @spodiodi: Yep, same DC station!
	5:59pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:56 haha, i don't know! but his voice, the drum sound (yes Irwin the drumming's good; but they sound terrible); and an uninspired guitar solo.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always Mr. DJ IDC Sir ~
	5:59pm Matt formerly jetboy: Can’t wait for apple’s new better spellcheck
	5:59pm ironybread: Irwin, what is that very janky closing theme? Been meaning to ask.
	👻 5:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Irwin. Ejumacational as usual.
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Hubig Pie @5:58 Will look into that, next time I visit Nyoo Awlins.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: such typical, tired pop country, toby.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: in any case Thanks Irwin! always inspirational.
	6:02pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ G @5:54 And I'll have to ask you about such fests, since you live down there now! :)
	6:12pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Dirty Robot" by "Arling & Cameron" my fave A&c tune! thanks again, Irwin!

	👻 6/6 11:56am 12539: Irwin!
	👻 9:02am AnAnonymousParty: Something vague this way comes?
	12:04pm Listener Robert: What's with the double-headed hatchet, young lady? Going to fight the fires? And where'd that leg come from?
	12:09pm Listener Robert: Oh, that's not a hatchet, that's her arm.

	3:00pm Matt from Springfield: Hey, magical Sixth comment! Unless it's 10th? Or 20th now? If 6 Was 20... I like today's painting - mostly for the technique. A few paint strips, emphasizing the vertical up-to-down views, and they can represent two women with it, at least from a certain distance. As for the fried-egg halo, perhaps breakfast is on their minds...
	3:00pm Handy Haversack: Irwin. Irwinners.
	3:01pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ 12539 @3:00 And ready to [jazz/humor/eclectic genre surf]! Hi there Irwin and Irwinians! Fried-egg hello to common!

	3:03pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Ballade" by "Kenny Drew" Oooooh, this is nice. Jazz of a smooth nature, let's call it instead of..
	3:03pm Crosby in KC: Hello, Irwin and everyone!
	3:04pm Handy Haversack: I heard actual in-person live jazz last night. Sort of Dixieland, I think. Bass, trumpet (piccolo trumpet? is that a thing?), clarinet, piano, guitar. At Mona's on Ave. B.
	3:05pm Laura L: This Kenny Drew tune is a lovely song for this lazy (well, not really) but certainly hazy day of summer.

	3:06pm Juli: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:06 So cool!~
	3:07pm Hughie Considine: If only the next DJ had an "I" name (DJ Ignatius in the house!) that would complete the hat trick from Ira to Irwin. Ai yi yi ...
	3:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Juli @3:06 Mary Wing has actually played a few cuts from K8's old jazz band! wfmu.org...
	3:07pm PaulRobeson1923: This is how the Dinosaurs felt, at 1st
	3:08pm PaulRobeson1923: This is it
	3:08pm Juli: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:07 I shall listen::::
	3:08pm brainiac: What would be a prime example of a toy piano used prominently in a pop song?
	👻 3:08pm AnAnonymousParty: For whom is the bell tolling? (Asking for a friend.)
	3:08pm Hoboken Jack: Hello Irwin, Handy, Bagpipe wearing a mask, everybody, but especially much much love to love2laf

	3:12pm Dean: Mary Kay Place played somebody on something. What was it? Fernwood Tonight?

	3:14pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Hughie Considine @3:13 And they might have only come to mind ... and not ever used a toy piano. The air is orange. Not here. But still I'm befuddled.
	3:14pm sydnius: ↳ Hughie Considine @3:13 think of the recording equipment required
	3:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ sydnius @3:14 and then there's that.
	3:15pm Andrea C from the app: Good evening Irwin and everyone!
	3:16pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: Mary Wing wasn’t on today so I went on shortwave and this crazy preacher is screaming this is the RAPTURE
	3:16pm love2laf: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:15 Happy evening to you Andrea, hope all is well. I can say that internet and laptop have been stable for a full day now. It absolutely was the wi-fi portion of the router going funky.
	👻 3:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Ira & Irwin today. The "I"s have it!
	3:17pm sydnius: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:16 grift while the sun is red 🔴
	3:17pm Dean: Didn't The Residents do an album or EP played on toy instruments? Maybe that doesn't count. "The sky is rising! The sky is rising!"
	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:07 I was offline for a few years - I've seen K8 comment here and have seen in mentioned that her (current) band has played live on FMU before - could you fill me in on what is that band?
	3:18pm tonyb: Air no longer orange in Cranford, now blue-ish. An improvement…
	👻 3:18pm DjLorraine: Irwin and listeners I hope you are having a fine day (without inhalation of fine particles)
	3:19pm listener Phillip in the Bronx: It’s a good thing I’m on my psych meds because this would have scared the heck outta me.
	3:20pm The Butterman: ↳ tonyb @3:18 Yo Tony, did we ever speak on the street when you were crossing the road in a WFMU hat. I was in my car? On Riverside ?
	3:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:17 No, none of her current bands has done so yet, Matt. Maybe one day!
	3:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "Do You Feel the Same?" by "Flyying Colours" This song is fantastic.
	3:21pm Dean: The Residents' Diskomo/Goosebumps EP includes at least one track with what could be toy piano, but I think it's a toy xylophone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R36w8EGJuv8
	3:22pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:20 Here's hopin'!
	3:23pm The Oscar: ↳ brainiac @3:08 So, here's a crazy story: When I was in college in Boston, there was a weird little junk/record shop in the Fens called "King of Records." One of my best finds there was a little wooden toy piano with a great jangly tone. One day I came home and my roommate was playing a recording of what sounded like my toy piano. When I asked if he recorded that, he told me it was actually the song "Sunshine and Clouds (And Everything Proud)" by Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, which had just come out. But then he showed me the crazy part: examining the piano, he discovered the letters "CYHSY" scrawled on the bottom of!
	3:24pm Juli: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:12 Sorry to hear that.
	3:24pm Matt from Springfield: Here's a good updated air quality map: fire.airnow.gov It's even come down my way - hazy already from humidity but the wildfires are affecting here as well. (Go to North New England, it's the only place on the whole East Coast with actual 'healthy' air ratings.)
	3:24pm love2laf: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 That is a crazy story, and a wonderful one.
	3:24pm Katharsis: Hellos Irwin and all
	3:25pm brainiac: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 It was meant to be. The spirit of the toy piano demanded it.
	3:26pm tonyb: Butterman: probably not me. 90th & 5th my turf. Bluestone Cafe every morning (except today)
	3:26pm Hughie Considine: ↳ The Oscar @3:23 I remember when they were the band of the moment and everyone was talking about them and I wondered when it was cool to finally abbreviate to "Clap Your Hands" when discussing them. It was a moral choice -- you had to decide for yourself.
	3:26pm x: yaaaaaa
	3:26pm AdmireMyChives: the light is on permanent yellow sunset in Philadelphia
	3:26pm love2laf: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:24 Thanks for that link, shows Canada air quality too, I had no luck finding it earlier today. Assumed it was US only.
	👻 3:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Had enough of staring at clouds of forest fire smoke? Stare at clouds of volcanic smoke instead. www.usgs.gov... 🌋
	3:30pm G: If someone has HVAC, set it to recirculate. Don’t use in-window AC if avoidable. Brings in outside air constantly.
	3:32pm Hughie Considine: Oh no, nothing worse than a drunk Ouzo enthusiast.
	3:32pm sydnius: ↳ G @3:30 filters work a treat!
	3:33pm sydnius: ↳ G @3:30 and most in-window AC doesn’t exchange unless you connect the vent
	👻 3:33pm xtrakrispy: The friend was Joni Mitchell
	3:34pm Dean: My Greek wine of choice lately is Malihin-Chryssos Old Vines Vidiano PGI Rethymno. Also the New Vines release.
	3:34pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ xtrakrispy @3:33 Cohen get out your cape / And we can leave my lightweight friend sleeping on your futon...
	3:36pm Dean: What do successful poets get paid per verse?
	3:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "How Gus Became a Poet" by "Gus Bodenheim" Gusophobes are afraid of strategic nomenclature counter-intuitivity.
	3:37pm Dean: Ezra Pound
	3:37pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Dean @3:36 I made a killing one year in poetry when I was young and got out of the game while I was still on top.
	3:38pm Dean: Now you can NFT all of your juvenilia, @Handy.
	👻 3:38pm DjLorraine: My internet cut out and i was like “wHat?“
	3:39pm PaulRobeson1923: And he came to a door.
	3:39pm Dean: Speaking of comedy legends, Pat Cooper has left the building.
	3:40pm Andrea C from the app: @Irwin have you told this anecdote in the past already? Sorry for asking but it felt like it. I knew every bit of it. It’s freaking me out
	3:40pm Andrea C from the app: Please and thank you
	3:40pm Chris Hiatt: Afternoon, all. Back inside for the duration.
	3:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ DjLorraine @3:38 Hwhy does that happen at the least convenient times?!

	3:42pm dday: and so far, no one has played The Airborne Toxic Event. Come on Out Maybe?? "Black lungs, headlights, heading off to the city tonight"
	3:42pm Irwin: ↳ Andrea C from the app @3:40 You have clairvoyant skillz!
	3:42pm Carmichael: ↳ Dean @3:39 Too bad, although he was 93. Boy, next thing you know Jan Murray will go. Or Shecky Greene.
	3:42pm Andrea C from the app: Ok thank you. It’s weird. I’ll take it as is.
	3:44pm Andrea C from the app: I wouldn’t go as far a clairvoyance , but thank you for the compliment.
	3:44pm Irwin: I name-checked Orchestra Luna in the first mic break and no one flinched or raised an eyebrow. Good.
	3:44pm PaulRobeson1923: This is the end
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @3:42 It was a fun anecdote, in every case.
	3:45pm Andrea C from the app: I enjoyed it, don’t get me wrong. I had to ask.
	3:46pm Irwin: LC was a ladies' man, but he was a gentleman too.
	👻 3:46pm rrg: ↳ Irwin @3:41 He posted it on Facebook also.
	3:46pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Irwin @3:41 My day gig is working for a wine importer. That sort of thing happens to me all the time when I'm meeting with accounts, though nothing as interesting as that story!
	3:47pm Dean: Had to double-check Jan Murray. He's already kaput.
	3:48pm Andrea C from the app: rrg I don’t think I have him as friend. My sole Facebook activity is Glen Jones Cheers group tbh
	3:48pm dday: I saw on Fox Weather Channel..The AQI (Air Quality Index) website has NYC at #1 in world's worst air quality today.

	3:57pm AdmireMyChives: wasn’t that a wfmu show? Moonlight Pee Shivers?
	3:57pm Irwin: ↳ Mister Dobalina @3:56 Curious about that too. The project evaporated.

	👻 4:10pm rrg: ↳ DjLorraine @3:56 Willie Stein also worked as a producer with Mark Goodson and Bill Todman for years, helping (among other things) to prep the imposters on "To Tell the Truth". The TTTT panelists often remarked on how good a job he did.
	4:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:08 I was about to say, I was just citing what you just said! Remembering that reference and the interesting connection. Carla did acquire the 'Bley' from Paul Bley, and kept it as a professional name.
	4:11pm Dean: Did she also marry Steve Swallow?
	4:11pm Irwin: ↳ Monica @4:01 Hey, Mo. Almost missed your salutations. Greetings.

	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:09 ...& making Brass instruments of various sizes & sundry varietals on the same basic design no great mechanical challenge I suppose...

	4:27pm Ochre Ogre: Gotta get a million dollars in 100 bills, easier to tuck away, so Iv'e heard.
	4:27pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:10 Maybe Irwin said Carla "the wife of" Paul Bley and I misheard, full disclosure Jimmy Giuffre was never married to Carla Bley; Juanita Giuffre was his only wife. Carla however has been linked to other jazz musicians, Paul and Michael Mantler among them.
	4:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:27 That is 10,000 Benjamins.
	4:29pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:28 How many "suitcases" does that make, mathematically??
	4:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:28 ...imagine the very smell...
	4:30pm PaulRobeson1923: Yoko Ono knows what $ can do for people
	4:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:30 ...& what it can't...
	4:30pm Matt_: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:30 changes everything?
	4:30pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:27 After you pledge like 200 of those $100 bills to WFMU
	4:31pm Matt from Springfield: With Benjamins as the highest issued denom, a "briefcase" should comfortably fit $50-100k, about what you expect from action movies and TV. Now if you're paying off a cool $one mill, you'll need a duffelbag or something to stuff it in. (And of course, the identical duffelbag where you escape with the real million...)
	4:32pm PaulRobeson1923: All we are saying is… pledge to WFMU 1 Million dollars. This is NYC. A million is viewed as small number
	4:32pm sydnius: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:31 silly matt, It’s a monkey NFT
	4:33pm PaulRobeson1923: It’s just a million dollars. & what is a million when you are supporting the greatest and oldest freeform Radio station in America? America
	4:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:33 Not even one years' minimal budget.
	4:34pm Juli: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @4:33 I would never be a billionaire because I'd give it away
	4:34pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:31 Then stash it in a crawl space like Walter White did in Breaking Bad.
	4:35pm PaulRobeson1923: All we are sayying, is give peace and WFMU a Million dollars a chance
	4:35pm BH: Yankees (and Phillies) games have been postponed for today, in case anybody was aspiring to attend a baseball game with doomsday amounts of smoke around

	4:40pm Juli: ↳ Juli @4:39 Giving me...:{{{{{{
	4:42pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @4:38 Indeed! Us listeners are fighting NOISE POLLUTION, by having the sounds go into our appreciative heads instead of those befuddled plasticsuitman normies' heads! And they accuse US of listening to "noise"!
	4:42pm Irwin: ↳ Juli @4:39 I'm getting the DD from the sudden influx of rats in my neighborhood, probably from the streateries that the city refuses to remove, even tho they're empty 95% of the time and no one's gonna eat outdoors while the skies are grey and the air is brown.
	4:43pm Juli: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Oof I hope the problems resolve soon for yu!~
	4:43pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Ochre Ogre @4:40 If it's legal to... You can't do that for airline tickets anymore, and in Italy they were trying to fight money laundering by making all purchases above 1000 EUR as cashless - not sure how that went.
	4:43pm The Butterman: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Ewwwwww
	4:45pm love2laf: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Oh that's horrible, and disgusting. :(

	4:48pm love2laf: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:46 Was thinking the same thing, except the racoons, nature's version, are persistent once someone's fed them and they become a huge nuisance. Still better than rats.

	4:51pm Imgur: Greaseman!!! This takes me back!
	4:51pm Rich in Washington: Are people in the region making homemade fan/filter conglomerations like we were in the Pacific Northwest yet? You couldn't find a furnace filter for hundreds of miles during the wildfires.
	4:51pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Grease vs. the FCC" by "The Greaseman (Doug Tracht)" I remember The Greaseman, DC 101's sorta-successor to H. Stern.
	4:51pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:43 Interesting, in Sicily there are probably certain groups opposing that rule.
	4:52pm Feldy: Lookout when a DJ drops trou or announces a mattress-in-lane... things are gonna get wacky
	4:52pm Dan from Delco: I remember Anthony from Opie and Anthony doing his Greaseman impersonation.
	4:52pm spodiodi: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:51 i think maybe the precursor as well (?)

	4:55pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "6 Shooter" by "Viagra Boys" DJ PerroCaliente gives these guys a fair amt of play
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Grease vs. the FCC" by "The Greaseman (Doug Tracht)" Seems a lot more Marshall McLuhan than HowardStern ever was. Vivid creative stuff. Almost like some HipHop in a way...
	4:56pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @4:50 Glad to hear!
	4:56pm love2laf: ↳ Juli @4:55 Hugs Juli, sometimes all we can do is hang on by one fingernail, and get through one more minute.
	4:56pm brainiac: ↳ Song: "6 Shooter" by "Viagra Boys" This is the mayhem you need to take your mind off the problems of the world
	4:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:49 Very interesting. We're kind of Eye of the Storm so to speak...
	4:57pm Juli: It reminds me of that movie Wristcutters out here:: Of the afterlife lol Thanks Love2lauf I can learn to be strong.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ brainiac @4:56 Countering mayhem with other mayhem. Certainly works for me while listening to WFMU.
	4:58pm Irwin: ↳ spodiodi @4:55 At least one DJ refuses to play them because of the band's name. I think they're terrific. Tons o' fun, and better musicianship than you might assume from the often-silly, if not downright immature, song topics.
	4:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @4:57 "Wind patterns in your favor - collect 50 breaths of fresh air"
	4:59pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Juli @4:53 I'd assume that something good at filtering particulates (those N95s we laid in for The Plague are good!) should do a fine job of keeping the tiny CHUNKS out of your lungs. Gaseous aromatics would make it through, but I'm hoping there aren't huge levels of those many miles away from the source!
	4:59pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Irwin @4:42 Right, the one and perhaps only truly vile creature of all the animals close to human habitats.
	4:59pm Dean: My morning coffee shop plays stuff like Viagra Boys and a wild assortment of other stuff. Among the regulars, a guy whose wife is a DJ at the Berkeley campus station. "She grew up listening to WFMU," he reports to me.
	4:59pm Ike: ↳ Jeff Moore @4:52 I grew up in a rural part of Maryland just out of reach of D.C. FM radio, so the Greaseman was like an ephemeral legend of sorts to the schoolkids of my town. Those few who had heard him would try to describe the experience to the others. He loomed large in our imaginations.
	5:01pm Fredericks: ↳ listener Phillip in the Bronx @3:16 It's always The Rapture. Do you recall the woman who fell out of a moving cars' sunroof?
	👻 5:02pm chris in the redwoods: just saw that Viagra Boys are opening for Queens of the Stone Age at a venue near me soonish...
	5:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:58 We were quite in the path of it earlier up here...
	5:03pm Fredericks: ↳ Hoboken Jack @3:08 Jack, I'm halfway through your Drag Show.
	5:03pm Larry in Merrlin: Grease Man?! The DC area shock jock of the 1980s-90s. He was creative for being "irksome." Then was fired for making one more racist joke ... in 1999.
	5:04pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Ike @4:59 An interesting scene you set! Puts me in mind of people who had cable trying to explain MTV and HBO things to us antenna people.
	5:04pm BH: I think the Viagra Boys were just mentioned on a commercial on the radio station i'm listening to around here (as being part of some concert that I don't recall), so it's possible the Viagra Boys are leaking out of their containment pod?

	5:08pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @5:07 I second that.

	5:10pm Will: It takes some daring (and undeniable good taste) to play this great tune. "I want all things to make sense, so we'll be happy instead of dead." Thanks Irwin.
	5:10pm Ike: ↳ Jeff Moore @5:04 I had that experience too, at least for a good chunk of my youth. We had cable for a few years here and there, but mostly antenna. There wasn't even an NBC station in my area, so as a little kid, when I heard about ALF, I really wanted to see it. Of course, today ALF is known for being fucking terrible! And apparently it was a complete nightmare to produce as well. The actors had to step carefully so they didn't fall into the holes made for the puppeteers.

	5:10pm spodiodi: i guess that's their loss. i don't know them very well, but like what i've heard incl. the tune you played... now i'm going to spend more time than i should (any) trying to figure out which dj :)
	5:11pm coelacanth∅: ↳ brainiac @5:09 i wish about 8 more Vonnegut books would be discovered
	5:11pm Irwin: ↳ ironybread @5:10 It's also a way of saying "This band is better at math than you."
	5:12pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Juli @4:55 I have been lax, but a usual meditation practice is beneficial for many issues including brain function.
	👻 5:13pm Franco Twinkie: I saw The Lounge Lizards ONCE. It was at The Lone Star in 1985. For those who don't know, The Lone Star was the antithesis of downtown cool. John Lurie obviously hated playing in this tourist dump, and was voluble about it to the point of exasperation.

	5:13pm Will: @ ironybread: Good one!
	5:14pm Dean: I've learned that Glenn Gould's Bach is part of the soundtrack to the movie based on Slaughterhouse-Five, but that two composers have set his words (from where?) to music. One, E.D. Grana, uses Vonnegut's lyrics for his piece Stones, Time and Elements: A Humanist Requiem. The other is Christoph Enzel, whose Close to the Edge (I kid you not) has lyrics by Vonnegut.

	5:18pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:14 hey Matt! i think you're right, but i've only heard 2 ambrosia albums. 'borrowed this one from the public library in my teens and made a tape of it. the other one is Awful!
	5:18pm coelacanth∅: (and it's called "180". .. appropriate i guess)
	5:18pm Dean: That's informative stuff, @brainiac. "So It Goes"...duh! Never made the connection. But "Uncle John's Band"? That's terrific.
	5:19pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:17 I was a Vonnegut fan until Breakfast of Champions. After that, zero interest in anything else he wrote.
	5:19pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Cindy" by "American Chamber Music Group (Tom Bent... FOLK ALERT!! This is an old'un, two old'uns actually, combined into a "zipper" song - take a song and append it to another. This is a very "arranged" version of it, chorus and instruments. I only heard basic guitar versions before.
	5:19pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:16 slightly envious!
	5:20pm PaulRobeson1923: How do i know the beer is Fentinil free?
	5:20pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:19 He was very bitter and depressed when he wrote that. He was also bitterly disappointed in the book himself.
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ gone with the wind @5:16 Afternoon wind! Bringing in the fresh air today, we hope? :)
	5:20pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ brainiac @5:20 Too many Paul Mauls And fentintil free likker
	5:20pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ rrg @5:15 You should check out the Kaplan Brothers cover of King Crimson's 'Epitaph.' Heard long ago on Irwin's show.
	5:20pm coelacanth∅: Irwin that's one of his weak ones. he wrote some of his best work both before and after that.
	5:21pm Dean: And "Blue Monday," another duh!
	5:21pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:20 It was ... what's the word? Facile. Shallow. Buffoonery. Hackwork.
	5:21pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:18 "180 - 'cause there's money to be made from schlock!"
	5:21pm Juli: ↳ Jeff Moore @4:59 Tyyyyy
	5:22pm Dean: I think Irwin is saying he was a fan up through Breakfast of Champions...? I don't think it's one of his weak ones, might even be his best (as I read him), but I can see how earlier works prevail, too. Cat's Cradle, Mother Night...
	5:22pm Juli: Also ty to the person who spoke on mindfulnesss I have many books and much practice in such avenues of the mind
	5:23pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:21 Wouldn't be surprised if he was drinking heavily at the time. It's not for those squeamish of certain forbidden words.
	5:23pm Irwin: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:20 That was around the time I discovered Mencken and Bierce. I had no further need for KV's cheap cynicism. HLM and Ambrose Bierce were hardcore.
	5:23pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:21 yeah. make some crap for the american audience! did they fill arenas after that, like the kinks did after the conscious decision to create CRAP for america?!
	5:24pm Irwin: ↳ Dean @5:22 Exactly. I tried reading BoC but abandoned it one-quarter of the way in. It was a dumb book.
	5:24pm Dean: I see I'm mistaken. Breakfast was hackwork? It's been a long time since I've read any KVJ. Perhaps my tastes have changed. I remember thinking it was a joy.
	5:25pm Juli: ↳ Irwin @5:24 I didn't like the book about incest lolI stopped reading it,
	5:25pm PaulRobeson1923: ↳ Irwin @5:23 Bierce took part in the Battle of Shiloh- and lived
	5:25pm brainiac: ↳ Irwin @5:24 Wait. You didn't finish it??? Dude.
	5:25pm Dean: I took you to mean you enjoyed BoC, but nothing thereafter.
	5:25pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Irwin @5:23 but are they as amusing as Vonnegut?
	5:26pm Dean: Squeamish? Don't read Roth's Sabbath's Theater. Whooo doggy.
	5:27pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:25 Loved everything he wrote to that point. Hated BoC. He lost me forever.
	5:27pm brainiac: I would say for all its shortcomings BoC was the first and foremost example of meta fiction. I'll stand by to be corrected.
	5:28pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ brainiac @5:20 This sure makes sense, because a year before Breakfast of Champions came out he wrote The Big Space Fuck short story that was included in a SciFi collection edited by Harlan Ellison. It's bleak. I also think he said after he wrote that that he was going to quit writing.
	5:28pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "The Iron Age Settlement" by "Mackenzie Crook & To... Good lesson in photo-interpretation..
	5:28pm Dean: Some of Joyce Carol Oates' work is, uhm, intense. But if you're up for 1300 pages of muscle-flexing macho posturing that skewers the CIA and FBI, do take on Mailer's Harlot's Ghost. You'll get drunk on reading about all the martinis.
	5:28pm coelacanth∅: i don't remember the end of breakfast of champions. that's how much it impressed me. but after that he made galapagos (maybe my favorite?); slapstick; deadeye dick (an unsung beauty); bluebeard (an unsung Masterpiece)...
	5:29pm Dean: Tristram Shandy for metafiction, no?
	5:29pm gone with the wind: Anyone going to the show at Monty Hall on Sunday?
	5:29pm Irwin: ↳ brainiac @5:27 Perhaps I'm being unnecessarily negative. Let's just say I lost interest in KV at that point and ignored everything thereafter.
	5:30pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:28 Yeah, Bluebird was pretty good. Kind of a late period work for him?
	5:30pm Juli: I dig Tom Robbins:::} I don't read much fiction. Ty Irwin> Gtg pack pack pack.
	5:30pm Dean: And Robert Coover was doing it pre-BoC.
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "His Nibs" by "The Neil Cowley Trio" YES! Loud! Louder!! STOP!!!! "Give me your loudest song. No, that's too loud..."
	5:32pm coelacanth∅: Irwin that happened to me when my then-favorite band, the cure, released "the walk", followed by "the top". stopped paying attention. and when Bowie released all that thin white duke shlock in the late 70s-80s.... in both cases only to later find out they picked themselves up again.
	5:32pm brainiac: ↳ Dean @5:30 I deffer to your expertise
	5:32pm Feldy: ↳ Song: "His Nibs" by "The Neil Cowley Trio" That was fantastic
	5:34pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:30 the thing about bluebeard was that it just kind of trotted along, somewhat amusing but seemingly pointless... then exploded with amazingness!
	5:35pm PaulRobeson1923: Bierce survived the Battle of Franklin…
	5:35pm Asheville Jon: they are interviewing people to do a regular call in to 7SD, andy is going to pay them $50
	5:36pm coelacanth∅: deadeye dick kind of the same. one has to have faith that it's worth continuing. (unlike "the road" that i kept reading with faith instilled by McCarthy's other work - only for the road to go nowhere) ...(hey, wait...)
	5:36pm Irwin: ↳ PaulRobeson1923 @5:35 They didn't call him "Bitter Bierce" for nothing.
	5:37pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Bidin' time, for the Boden heim.
	5:37pm dale: didn't bing crosby sing 'what is jazz?'
	5:38pm Hubig Pie: I posit that light lager aka lawnmower beer is a true american art form
	5:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Swing is side-to-side ...Rawk is back & forth...
	5:38pm Onion: Saw Louis Cole with the Metropole Orkest this evening.
	5:38pm Dean: Peter Schickele said, "It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that certain je ne sais quoi."
	5:39pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Sleepytime prog, haha.
	5:39pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Jazz is Blues for people that play too well.
	5:39pm Feldy: There's also that funky comet, the Hale Bop
	👻 5:39pm Franco Twinkie: I heard from someone who knows more about the subject than me, that jazz was a variation on jizz. Hot jazz, hot jizz - decide for yourself.
	5:39pm Frank from VT: Ah - 'Sleepytime prog' --- love it!
	5:40pm Harry Corvair: sleepytime prog
	5:40pm Hubig Pie: Payment for tonight's 7SD = $120 an hour for 4 minutes every other week
	5:40pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... Not 'jazz', but I wondered if there's a term for that older Blues music - pre-12 Bar, pre-Robert Johnson, it was that swingy Blues you hear on old 78s. Like a Dixieland vocal, but not as many instruments.
	5:41pm Will: Irwin, was that an actual copy of the Saturday Night at Tom Benton's 10" you played?
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 There were Work Songs, Ragtime ...Spirituals...
	5:42pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:39 not unreasonable... but "jazz" was/is a phrase that means "mess" or "disorder" (along those lines) and jazz was originally a derogatory term because it was improvised.
	5:42pm Onion: ↳ Hubig Pie @5:38 Fancy Lawnmower, by St. Arnolds is a great example, in my opinion.
	5:42pm Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Jazz Forensics with Gus Bodenheim" by "Gus Bodenh... This Bodenheim babble already had a star. Late time I listened to Sonny Rollins I was much more distracted/annoyed by the nursery rhyme interjections.
	5:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 ...all that Jazz...
	5:42pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Also referred to as "race" recordings.
	5:44pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Probably was a term for it back then, in New Orleans.
	5:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 ...various African retentions in the Americas - where the first thing any Slaver or Manifest Destiny Imperialist did was Destroy all the Drums...
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:40 Come again?
	5:45pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:34 Indeed! Holy crap.
	5:45pm Irwin: ↳ Will @5:41 No, it's available digitally. Retains the old 78rpm snap, crackle and surface noise.
	5:46pm Carmichael: ↳ Ochre Ogre @5:44 I know there was "jump" music back then, although not sure what it was. Upbeat "jive" music? Jump 'n' jive?
	5:46pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Onion @5:42 Just looked that up. Does kolsch style means it's like lemonade shandy ?
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:41 "Ragtime" Blues may be a good term for the period I'm thinking of. Then there's all the Spiritual/Gospel Bluegrass/Folk Old Timey/Hill music that eventually blended into "Swing" music to become "Pop" music, R&R R&B Boogie C&W etc...
	5:48pm Dean: The Gary Strivant?!
	5:48pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Carmichael @5:46 Hence Joe Jackson's "Jumpin' Jive" tribute album - My own yardstick is that Jive is the older, 30s style, more Cab Calloway; Jump is newer, 40s style, more Louis Jordan. Jump is the immediate predecessor to Rock 'n Roll, along with "Boogie" variants from Jive.
	👻 5:48pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Sings like a moose. No, actually, that is mean to mooses.
	5:49pm dale: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" can't decide if this is being presented as incorrect music or as something more palatable.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...tales of shifting Race Laws in literal differing neighborhoods in New Orleans. Some lighter skin folk ('high yellow') might have more European Musical instruction ...then the social mores would shift again - & they'd be thrown in with their darker skinned neighbors - who practiced different Musical Traditions & Expressions. When I say Jazz is Blues for people who play too well - I'm thinking of such origins in fact...
	5:49pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Moose lounge
	5:49pm Dean: It's just a demo. I bet George sounded just as rusty when he first committed it to magnetic tape.
	👻 5:49pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Did he ever do Yesterday? That would be something, too.
	👻 5:49pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:42 Of course. Secondhand information rarely stand up to scrutiny. 'I jazzed in my pants' somehow doesn't square up.
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Slaves were literally prohibited from Jumping.
	5:49pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Irwin @5:45 See myself @5:46 - I can't think of artists offhand, but I think the others helped me nail down some term for it. Remember that "Homesickness Blues" from 1916? That's an even more 'out-there' variety of that older Blues.
	5:50pm MarciB: This guy (Gary Stivant) reminds me of Johnny "Bowtie" Barstow!
	5:50pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Speechless
	5:50pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" He's got an interesting concept of intonation. I don't entirely not like that concept.
	5:51pm MarciB: ↳ Doug in MP @5:50 yup!
	👻 5:51pm G: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" "I don't know, I don't know" is right.
	5:51pm dale: i keep hearing sinatra sing 'stick arooooooound JACK!'
	5:51pm Dean: OED: Forms: 1900s jas (rare), 1900s jascz (nonstandard, rare), 1900s jasz (nonstandard, rare), 1900s jaz (rare), 1900s– jass, 1900s– jazz. Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps a variant or alteration of another lexical item. Etymon: jasm n. Apparently a variant of jism n.
	5:51pm Chris Hiatt: ↳ Chris Hiatt @5:50 It's almost as if the vibrato rescues the pitch from total calamity.
	5:52pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" I've never heard so many things be so precisely off
	5:52pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Big finish!
	5:52pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" TheBeatles did in fact like to end on 6ths - @ first, against George Martin's advice...
	5:52pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Oh I loved that last note
	👻 5:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @5:51 Thank you for the last word...again!
	5:52pm dale: ↳ Dean @5:51 scatman crothers was on mike douglas and mike said 'jazz' and scatman corrected him and said that was a dirty word.
	5:53pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "Something" by "Gary Strivant" Like to hear him cover Sympathy for the Devil.
	5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:52 ...because Martin thot it old-timey & corny...
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:49 The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival ("JazzFest") is a huge thing in a park now, but the very first one premiered at Congo Square in NO - most appropriately. It's just a bricked public square now with some displays nearby Louis Armstrong Park, but I paid a visit when I was down there for JazzFest - a sacred site, this was the birthplace of genuinely "American" music - where slaves were allowed to play their music one day a week, and others heard and adapted that music...
	👻 5:53pm G: ↳ Dean @5:51 Yes, Dean. Jazz/Jizz/Jism/Jasm were 1800s terms for sperm/ejaculate. In early baseball, a "jazz ball" was a term for a pitch with weird lively movement. Music picked it up from baseball -- weird, lively, unpredictable, etc.
	5:53pm will from croton: tony clifton?
	5:53pm Doug in MP: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" Suddenly realizing how much Pavement owes to the Modern Lovers
	5:53pm Dean: Gotta find that clip, @dale. When my mom was "waitressing" (which is what we then called it) Scatman was one of her regular customers.
	5:54pm Roberto: oh durn, I missed the Greaseman. 1993 called and I didn't answer.
	👻 5:54pm G: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 They still have small festivals in Congo Square every year.
	5:54pm Carmichael: I was just listening to this last night! had to satisfy my 3 Dog Night fix and found the original.
	5:54pm spodiodi: ↳ G @5:53 wow. never would have guessed
	👻 5:54pm 12539: Thanks, Irwin!
	5:54pm Dean: OED proclaims the advent of jism=semen in 1899. Prior to that it meant energy, strength.
	5:55pm Ochre Ogre: Thanks Irwin! Don't breathe too deeply in the smoky zones folks.
	5:55pm spodiodi: thanks, Irwin!
	👻 5:55pm G: ↳ spodiodi @5:54 It's been documented from contemporary written sources by the American Dialect Society.
	👻 5:55pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" This is a great song no matter who covers it.
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 The very spot where it transmuted, in other words, from Ritual Participation to Spectator Entertainment. Tho one also wonders about origins aside from New Orleans in the Americas. But there it all was...
	5:55pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:53 "Minor Sixths" - hard to play on guitar, but a took the transcription of the Beatles "Flying" to my guitar teacher to learn. He IDed the notes as "minor sixths" and showed me how to finger them. Many Beatles songs have difficult chords, but rewarding to hear (even more rewarding to play them right!)
	5:55pm dale: ↳ G @5:54 who knows how many times he was on mike. not as many as mason reese no doubt.
	5:55pm coelacanth∅: this is pretty shitty compared to 3 dog night's version!
	5:56pm Ike: ↳ Song: "Shambala" by "Toby Keith" ACK, ptooey! Time to switch over to Ridgewood Radio on the Give the Drummer stream!
	5:56pm jan: Shambala in an earlier incarnation would writhe in my ears.
	5:56pm Dean: Check out Mike Douglas with co-host Sly Stone when Muhammad Ali is a guest. Yikes.
	5:56pm Onion: Well done Irwin. Thank you!
	👻 5:56pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:55 Be kind. No one can stand up to Three Dog Night.
	5:57pm Chris Hiatt: Thanks, Irwin! And good evening to you all. If you're in the smoke zone, be safe.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Thanks, Irwin. A great afternoon. Catch you all again soon. And keep that air conditioning running for the next few days.
	5:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @5:55 I discovered the "local" non-Delta variety a couple years ago, but still need to deep-dive and learn more about this: en.wikipedia.org...
	5:57pm Carmichael: ↳ coelacanth∅ @5:55 The Dog's version was well-produced, lush and stacked, a lot like a typical ABBA song.
	5:57pm spodiodi: Matt from Springfield, thanks for the Stern / Greasman info!
	5:57pm gone with the wind: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:20 ~smiling~
	5:57pm listener 126464: Thanks Irwin!
	5:57pm The Butterman: Tanks, Irwin. Pretty pretty good.
	5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Smoke Gets In Our Eyes today, but Irwin takes us to Shambala! (Just watch for those monks and hippies with incense...!) Thanks Irwin! Have a good evening, Irwinauts!
	5:58pm gone with the wind: you go Irwin! stand your ground will ya?
	5:58pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:53 Congo Square is also where you can go see opera performed at the Mahalia Jackson theater for the performing arts
	5:58pm tranewreck: Thanks for the high air quality Irwin
	5:58pm Matt formerly jetboy: Good times we’re had by all - thanks Irwin!
	5:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ gone with the wind @5:57 :) And a good evening to you, too! @spodiodi: Yep, same DC station!
	5:59pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Franco Twinkie @5:56 haha, i don't know! but his voice, the drum sound (yes Irwin the drumming's good; but they sound terrible); and an uninspired guitar solo.
	5:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always Mr. DJ IDC Sir ~
	5:59pm Matt formerly jetboy: Can’t wait for apple’s new better spellcheck
	5:59pm ironybread: Irwin, what is that very janky closing theme? Been meaning to ask.
	👻 5:59pm Franco Twinkie: Thanks Irwin. Ejumacational as usual.
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Hubig Pie @5:58 Will look into that, next time I visit Nyoo Awlins.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: such typical, tired pop country, toby.
	6:00pm coelacanth∅: in any case Thanks Irwin! always inspirational.
	6:02pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ G @5:54 And I'll have to ask you about such fests, since you live down there now! :)
	6:12pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "Dirty Robot" by "Arling & Cameron" my fave A&c tune! thanks again, Irwin!
