	11:18am Bob Brainen: love2laf!
	🥁 11:19am Gina Bacon: I sure love Fats Waller!
	11:19am patrick321: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:17 Not our most organized holiday. My dad always had the day off. He's never been happy with how it seemed to be demoted in favor of the 3-day wknd floaters.

	🥁 11:22am wmfromd: ↳ adamdoesit @11:20 Thanks adamdoesit
	11:23am StringOFperils: Good morning, Bob and valued customers!
	11:24am Bob Brainen: StringOFperils!
	11:25am patrick321: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:16 I knew about the poppies but was not familiar with the 11:11 tradition, which I just read about.
	11:28am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ patrick321 @11:25 That`s good.
	11:28am StringOFperils: The Lancaster MK-III bomber (hangared near here) just flew over the house...an annual spooky reminder that it's Nov. 11
	11:30am Dean: It is Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.'s birthday.
	11:32am Dean: "Day" in Spanish, "dia," is also gendered male, even though it ends -a, which ordinarily signifies female. But one says "El dia," not "La dia."
	11:34am Roberto: ↳ Dean @11:30 Coincidentally, a WWII veteran himself.
	🥁 11:34am listener james from westwood: ↳ wmfromd @11:10 Kindest of condolences, wmfromd. WFMU was a balm in the weeks after I lost my mom, so you're in the right place.
	11:36am Soule: Good morning, Bob and Brainees!
	🥁 11:36am duke: Good morning Brainwavers
	🥁 11:37am wmfromd: ↳ listener james from westwood @11:34 Thanks listener james from westwood
	11:37am Dean: But Armistice Day is (was) about WWI, no?
	🥁 11:38am duke: ↳ Dean @11:30 I just watched Robert Weide's documentary on Kurt Vonnegut last night
	11:39am Dean: I wasn't aware of a doc about him. I really need to revisit his books.
	🥁 11:40am duke: ↳ Dean @11:39 I just reread Cat's Cradle
	11:40am Bob Brainen: Dean!
	11:40am Bob Brainen: Roberto!
	11:41am Bob Brainen: duke!
	11:41am Dean: Was it you who quoted from it on these boards a day or so ago, duke?
	🥁 11:42am duke: ↳ Dean @11:41 Not me, some other Vonnegut fan
	11:42am Roberto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:40 Bob!
	11:45am love2laf: ↳ duke @11:42 Isn't that everyone?
	11:45am Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @11:39 Me too! My favorite story was Tom Edison's Shaggy Dog, but it's been a long time since I read it. I endlessly read non-fiction and struggle with fiction despite or because I was an English Lit Major. Not sure why. Plus my mind wonders...
	11:47am Bob Brainen: Here's a Vonnegut quote I have on my wall at work: “If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: The only proof he needed for the existence of God was music.”
	11:49am Dean: I think often of Harrison Bergeron, which remains relevant. I'm with you, Bob. English Lit major, but I tend to read non-fiction, mostly because of my work. So, I read a bit of legal history, a bit about unjust enrichment, equity, really fascinating undercurrents of legal thought. But once I'm locked into a big, fat Dickens novel, I'm an English Lit major again. And poetry. Lots of poetry. Just now, Paul Laurence Dunbar.
	11:49am Bob Brainen: And this quote is on the wall of my music room where I am streaming this show from. I look up and see: "Without music, life would be a mistake" -Nietzsche
	11:50am Dean: Am I correct that, as somebody mentioned to me yesterday, KVJ's epitaph reads, "I'm Outta Here"?
	11:51am Dean: I have a CD of a recital of songs by Nietzsche. Pretty dreadful, as I recall, but that might be due to the execution, not the music itself.
	11:52am dan: Bob, do a monthly show with Pete on the two famous Bernsteins, Leonard and Elmer
	11:52am Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @11:49 Part of me hopes to get back there, Dean. And part of me thinks I may have gotten Fiction out of my system studying and absorbing it so intensely. But I also majored in Music History and I'll never get tired of that...
	🥁 11:55am duke: I Was A Christian Then --I'm a Bokononist now.
	11:57am Dean: An addendum to Nietzsche: "Even with music, life is a mistake, but a fortuitous one."
	11:57am Doug Schulkind: Lenny!
	11:59am Bob Brainen: ↳ dan @11:52 Douglas!
	11:59am Dean: Chuck!
	12:00pm Dean: My middle name is Charles, but somehow I doubt my parents were contemplating Mingus when they gave it to me.
	12:00pm Doug Schulkind: I would be willing to bet that Mingus and Bernstein were guests at the same party more than once.
	12:00pm Dean: They certainly were contemplating Dean Martin, however.
	🥁 12:03pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:49 My favorite graffito comes from the bathroom at the Hungarian Pastry Shop (across Amsterdam from the Cathedral of St. John the Divine) many too many years ago. It read, "God is dead" ~~ Nietzsche "Nietzsche is dead" ~~ God.
	12:03pm SecretSquirrel: Hey, Bob 'n' all! Joining you today from Minneapolis. Love me some Ronnie Cuber bari sax action
	12:03pm Jeff: I saw Mingus live, 3-4 times, in the ‘70s. Every single gig was radically different and exhilarating!
	12:04pm SecretSquirrel: Oops, that's Pepper Adams
	12:05pm Dean: I've been to NYC only three or four times, maybe five, but I know that Hungarian Pastry Shop!
	12:06pm Bob Brainen: Secret Squirrel!! Both great players!
	🥁 12:08pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:05 Glad to hear it, Dean. When I lived in Morningside Heights, I hung out there every time I could.
	12:10pm Jeff: Bob, I dig the fact that you’re still listening to new music. And, when you hear something good - Mitski - you share it with us. Not everything new sucks 😉
	12:11pm Dean: Pi Day = March 14.
	🥁 12:12pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:11 Because of 3/14. I like the Innocence Mission song a lot. I do not like Pi Day, because it propagates the falsehood that Pi is equal to 3.14.
	🥁 12:13pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "How Do You Make Believe" by "Anna Hillburg" More good new stuff right here.
	12:14pm dan: Any Fairport Convention coming up?
	12:17pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @12:11 Ah, i never knew! I thought it was a Karen Peris fanciful notion. She has many of those.
	🥁 12:19pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Bob Brainen @12:17 Pi Day has become a big deal in schools. Feh.
	🥁 12:19pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ (Mr) Bill @12:19 Maybe the song can redeem Pi Day. I will now shut up.
	12:20pm SecretSquirrel: "The smell of incense fills the room." When's the last time anyone on this board burned incense?
	12:21pm Dean: Incense? Ages and ages ago. But one barista at the local coffee shop, Coffee Conscious, used to burn it at the entrance most days.
	12:22pm Dean: Just think, two minutes ago it was 4:20 somewhere...
	🥁 12:22pm listener james from westwood: More a scented-candle guy now. But I do miss those we balsam and sandalwood cones of my earlier days.
	12:23pm Bob Brainen: I burned incense yesterday! Love it with Yoga or Meditation-neither of which I did yesterday. But...I burned southwestern incense.
	🥁 12:23pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "When I Was a Freeport and You Were the Main Drag"... A gem. I've never quite understood the title. Anyone?
	12:27pm SecretSquirrel: Last year I burned some Palo Santo incense that I picked up in Mexico City. It was a little too intense for my wife's taste.
	🥁 12:32pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:22 Yeah—4:20 a.m. somewhere, and 4:20 p.m. somewhere else. Large world, isn’t it?
	12:34pm Dean: I'll take a stab: Laura sings to misery, the main drag, the principal avenue in town. She's the freeport, a port exempt from customs and duties. Hence misery occupies Laura at no cost and makes its way with her through town.
	🥁 12:39pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:34 Thanks. Works very well for me. I had a sense of what you say that I could never put into words in 50-plus years of trying.
	🥁 12:41pm listener 126464: ↳ Song: "Hardees Jungle Radio Ad" by "Cass Elliot" Tasty!
	12:44pm Jeff: I had a major crush on “Mary Stone” when I was a kid. Her “mom” Donna wasn’t bad either.
	12:44pm Listener Robert: I'm explaining to my friend Don here that the Hardee's ad was unpaid and just an artistic choice by Bob Brainen. Don said, sarcastically, "Sure, sure." Don's demented but still has a sense of humor.
	12:56pm Dean: According to this: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/71858/10-things-you-might-not-know-about-hardees --Cass Elliot recorded the Hardee's jingle in 1973. Basis? I don't know.
	12:59pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @12:56 Thanks, close enough. She passed the next year.
	12:59pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Bob! Goodness I love this song. “Ugly Beauty,” that is.
	12:59pm Bob Brainen: wendy del formaggio!
	1:01pm Dean: August 5, 1974, AdBeat reports that Hardee's will keep the Elliot spots airing. This is just a week after her death. Seems '73 is likely, then.
	1:05pm Dean: Evidently Hardee's got in hot water with some of its ads.
	1:07pm Soule: ↳ Song: "No Place I'd Rather Be" by "Factory" I LOVE "No Place I'd Rather Be"!
	1:08pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Soule @1:07 Hi there Soule!
	1:38pm Gerry from Miami: HEY, BOB! Love me some Steely Dan! Especially when Michael McDonald is doing his fab backing vocals.
	🥁 1:38pm wmfromd: ↳ Song: "Groovin' Is Easy" by "Third Mind" Wow. Different take on this tune.
	1:39pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Song: "Groovin' Is Easy" by "Third Mind" This cover is flabbergasting. One of my favorite Electric Flag songs.
	1:40pm Gerry from Miami: Was there really a 30-minute gap from 1:08 to 1:38 with no comments?
	🥁 1:41pm duke: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:39 I hadn't thought of the Electric Flag in a long time,but just a couple days ago, I dug out their version of Wine
	1:44pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:39 Frank Zataar! A fave of mine too.
	🥁 1:45pm duke: Third Mind is Dave Alvin's band. They do a lot of interesting covers.
	1:46pm Bob Brainen: Gerry from Miami!
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: The Third Mind is definitely a band to keep an eye on! That Electric Flag cover was wonderful!
	🥁 1:48pm wmfromd: ↳ Song: "Blue Revelations" by "Lewis & Clarke Expedition" I dig these guys. They have a few nonLP singles that are quite good.
	1:50pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:44 Who played the guitar solo on that one?
	1:50pm ?: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:08 Hi, there, Andrew in Toronto! Happy Veterans' Day + Remembrance Day!
	1:52pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:46 Thanks, Frank. To you, as well.
	1:53pm Andrew in Toronto: What another great show! Thanks, Bob.
	1:53pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:50 On the cover? Dave Alvin, I'd think. Mike Bloomfield, of course, on original.
	1:55pm Frank Zaatar: I'd like to take credit for those good wishes, but they were written by someone else (Rudy Martinez?). But yes, Happy Veterans day.
	🥁 1:57pm (Mr) Bill: Another Saturday with a great deal of music to savor and remember. Thanks, Bob.
	🥁 1:58pm wmfromd: Great show and much needed. Thanks Bob!
	🥁 1:58pm (Mr) Bill: Wildfire.
	🥁 1:58pm duke: Thanks Bob
	1:58pm Soule: Beautiful show today!
	1:59pm Frank Zaatar: Wear light-colored clothes.
	🥁 1:59pm chresti: Thanks Bob!

	🥁 11:14am wmfromd: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:12 Thanks Bob. I've been my mother's primary caregiver for the last 8 plus years. Your show has been an oasis for me Bob.
	11:15am Bob Brainen: Gina Bacon!
	11:15am Bob Brainen: That's a long time Wm. Glad I can provide some solace.
	11:15am patrick321: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:13 It's Veterans Day in the US it's a bit different.

	11:18am love2laf: Here after observing silence at 11:11, always remember. @wmfrommd it's a very hard thing to lose your Mom, I hope you keep the good memories close to your heart to help with the grief. @Bob Brainen looking forward to hearing you until hubby brings out the vinyls Morning Andrew in Toronto!
	🥁 11:18am (Mr) Bill: ↳ wmfromd @11:10 May her memory be a blessing to you.
	11:18am Bob Brainen: love2laf!
	🥁 11:19am Gina Bacon: I sure love Fats Waller!
	11:19am patrick321: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:17 Not our most organized holiday. My dad always had the day off. He's never been happy with how it seemed to be demoted in favor of the 3-day wknd floaters.
	🥁 11:19am wmfromd: ↳ Gina Bacon @11:18 Thanks Gina Bacon
	11:20am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ love2laf @11:18 Morning, lov2laf!
	11:20am adamdoesit: ↳ wmfromd @11:10 I'm sorry for your loss, wmfromd. Please accept my condolences.

	🥁 11:22am wmfromd: ↳ adamdoesit @11:20 Thanks adamdoesit
	11:23am StringOFperils: Good morning, Bob and valued customers!
	11:24am Bob Brainen: StringOFperils!
	11:25am patrick321: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @11:16 I knew about the poppies but was not familiar with the 11:11 tradition, which I just read about.
	11:28am Andrew in Toronto: ↳ patrick321 @11:25 That`s good.
	11:28am StringOFperils: The Lancaster MK-III bomber (hangared near here) just flew over the house...an annual spooky reminder that it's Nov. 11
	11:30am Dean: It is Kurt Vonnegut, Jr.'s birthday.
	11:32am Dean: "Day" in Spanish, "dia," is also gendered male, even though it ends -a, which ordinarily signifies female. But one says "El dia," not "La dia."
	11:34am Roberto: ↳ Dean @11:30 Coincidentally, a WWII veteran himself.
	🥁 11:34am listener james from westwood: ↳ wmfromd @11:10 Kindest of condolences, wmfromd. WFMU was a balm in the weeks after I lost my mom, so you're in the right place.
	11:36am Soule: Good morning, Bob and Brainees!
	🥁 11:36am duke: Good morning Brainwavers
	🥁 11:37am wmfromd: ↳ listener james from westwood @11:34 Thanks listener james from westwood
	11:37am Dean: But Armistice Day is (was) about WWI, no?
	🥁 11:38am duke: ↳ Dean @11:30 I just watched Robert Weide's documentary on Kurt Vonnegut last night
	11:39am Dean: I wasn't aware of a doc about him. I really need to revisit his books.
	🥁 11:40am duke: ↳ Dean @11:39 I just reread Cat's Cradle
	11:40am Bob Brainen: Dean!
	11:40am Bob Brainen: Roberto!
	11:41am Bob Brainen: duke!
	11:41am Dean: Was it you who quoted from it on these boards a day or so ago, duke?
	🥁 11:42am duke: ↳ Dean @11:41 Not me, some other Vonnegut fan
	11:42am Roberto: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:40 Bob!
	11:45am love2laf: ↳ duke @11:42 Isn't that everyone?
	11:45am Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @11:39 Me too! My favorite story was Tom Edison's Shaggy Dog, but it's been a long time since I read it. I endlessly read non-fiction and struggle with fiction despite or because I was an English Lit Major. Not sure why. Plus my mind wonders...
	11:47am Bob Brainen: Here's a Vonnegut quote I have on my wall at work: “If I should ever die, God forbid, let this be my epitaph: The only proof he needed for the existence of God was music.”
	11:49am Dean: I think often of Harrison Bergeron, which remains relevant. I'm with you, Bob. English Lit major, but I tend to read non-fiction, mostly because of my work. So, I read a bit of legal history, a bit about unjust enrichment, equity, really fascinating undercurrents of legal thought. But once I'm locked into a big, fat Dickens novel, I'm an English Lit major again. And poetry. Lots of poetry. Just now, Paul Laurence Dunbar.
	11:49am Bob Brainen: And this quote is on the wall of my music room where I am streaming this show from. I look up and see: "Without music, life would be a mistake" -Nietzsche
	11:50am Dean: Am I correct that, as somebody mentioned to me yesterday, KVJ's epitaph reads, "I'm Outta Here"?
	11:51am Dean: I have a CD of a recital of songs by Nietzsche. Pretty dreadful, as I recall, but that might be due to the execution, not the music itself.
	11:52am dan: Bob, do a monthly show with Pete on the two famous Bernsteins, Leonard and Elmer
	11:52am Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @11:49 Part of me hopes to get back there, Dean. And part of me thinks I may have gotten Fiction out of my system studying and absorbing it so intensely. But I also majored in Music History and I'll never get tired of that...
	🥁 11:55am duke: I Was A Christian Then --I'm a Bokononist now.
	11:57am Dean: An addendum to Nietzsche: "Even with music, life is a mistake, but a fortuitous one."
	11:57am Doug Schulkind: Lenny!
	11:59am Bob Brainen: ↳ dan @11:52 Douglas!
	11:59am Dean: Chuck!
	12:00pm Dean: My middle name is Charles, but somehow I doubt my parents were contemplating Mingus when they gave it to me.
	12:00pm Doug Schulkind: I would be willing to bet that Mingus and Bernstein were guests at the same party more than once.
	12:00pm Dean: They certainly were contemplating Dean Martin, however.
	🥁 12:03pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Bob Brainen @11:49 My favorite graffito comes from the bathroom at the Hungarian Pastry Shop (across Amsterdam from the Cathedral of St. John the Divine) many too many years ago. It read, "God is dead" ~~ Nietzsche "Nietzsche is dead" ~~ God.
	12:03pm SecretSquirrel: Hey, Bob 'n' all! Joining you today from Minneapolis. Love me some Ronnie Cuber bari sax action
	12:03pm Jeff: I saw Mingus live, 3-4 times, in the ‘70s. Every single gig was radically different and exhilarating!
	12:04pm SecretSquirrel: Oops, that's Pepper Adams
	12:05pm Dean: I've been to NYC only three or four times, maybe five, but I know that Hungarian Pastry Shop!
	12:06pm Bob Brainen: Secret Squirrel!! Both great players!
	🥁 12:08pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:05 Glad to hear it, Dean. When I lived in Morningside Heights, I hung out there every time I could.
	12:10pm Jeff: Bob, I dig the fact that you’re still listening to new music. And, when you hear something good - Mitski - you share it with us. Not everything new sucks 😉
	12:11pm Dean: Pi Day = March 14.
	🥁 12:12pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:11 Because of 3/14. I like the Innocence Mission song a lot. I do not like Pi Day, because it propagates the falsehood that Pi is equal to 3.14.
	🥁 12:13pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "How Do You Make Believe" by "Anna Hillburg" More good new stuff right here.
	12:14pm dan: Any Fairport Convention coming up?
	12:17pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @12:11 Ah, i never knew! I thought it was a Karen Peris fanciful notion. She has many of those.
	🥁 12:19pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Bob Brainen @12:17 Pi Day has become a big deal in schools. Feh.
	🥁 12:19pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ (Mr) Bill @12:19 Maybe the song can redeem Pi Day. I will now shut up.
	12:20pm SecretSquirrel: "The smell of incense fills the room." When's the last time anyone on this board burned incense?
	12:21pm Dean: Incense? Ages and ages ago. But one barista at the local coffee shop, Coffee Conscious, used to burn it at the entrance most days.
	12:22pm Dean: Just think, two minutes ago it was 4:20 somewhere...
	🥁 12:22pm listener james from westwood: More a scented-candle guy now. But I do miss those we balsam and sandalwood cones of my earlier days.
	12:23pm Bob Brainen: I burned incense yesterday! Love it with Yoga or Meditation-neither of which I did yesterday. But...I burned southwestern incense.
	🥁 12:23pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Song: "When I Was a Freeport and You Were the Main Drag"... A gem. I've never quite understood the title. Anyone?
	12:27pm SecretSquirrel: Last year I burned some Palo Santo incense that I picked up in Mexico City. It was a little too intense for my wife's taste.
	🥁 12:32pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:22 Yeah—4:20 a.m. somewhere, and 4:20 p.m. somewhere else. Large world, isn’t it?
	12:34pm Dean: I'll take a stab: Laura sings to misery, the main drag, the principal avenue in town. She's the freeport, a port exempt from customs and duties. Hence misery occupies Laura at no cost and makes its way with her through town.
	🥁 12:39pm (Mr) Bill: ↳ Dean @12:34 Thanks. Works very well for me. I had a sense of what you say that I could never put into words in 50-plus years of trying.
	🥁 12:41pm listener 126464: ↳ Song: "Hardees Jungle Radio Ad" by "Cass Elliot" Tasty!
	12:44pm Jeff: I had a major crush on “Mary Stone” when I was a kid. Her “mom” Donna wasn’t bad either.
	12:44pm Listener Robert: I'm explaining to my friend Don here that the Hardee's ad was unpaid and just an artistic choice by Bob Brainen. Don said, sarcastically, "Sure, sure." Don's demented but still has a sense of humor.
	12:56pm Dean: According to this: https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/71858/10-things-you-might-not-know-about-hardees --Cass Elliot recorded the Hardee's jingle in 1973. Basis? I don't know.
	12:59pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Dean @12:56 Thanks, close enough. She passed the next year.
	12:59pm wendy del formaggio: Hi Bob! Goodness I love this song. “Ugly Beauty,” that is.
	12:59pm Bob Brainen: wendy del formaggio!
	1:01pm Dean: August 5, 1974, AdBeat reports that Hardee's will keep the Elliot spots airing. This is just a week after her death. Seems '73 is likely, then.
	1:05pm Dean: Evidently Hardee's got in hot water with some of its ads.
	1:07pm Soule: ↳ Song: "No Place I'd Rather Be" by "Factory" I LOVE "No Place I'd Rather Be"!
	1:08pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Soule @1:07 Hi there Soule!
	1:38pm Gerry from Miami: HEY, BOB! Love me some Steely Dan! Especially when Michael McDonald is doing his fab backing vocals.
	🥁 1:38pm wmfromd: ↳ Song: "Groovin' Is Easy" by "Third Mind" Wow. Different take on this tune.
	1:39pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Song: "Groovin' Is Easy" by "Third Mind" This cover is flabbergasting. One of my favorite Electric Flag songs.
	1:40pm Gerry from Miami: Was there really a 30-minute gap from 1:08 to 1:38 with no comments?
	🥁 1:41pm duke: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:39 I hadn't thought of the Electric Flag in a long time,but just a couple days ago, I dug out their version of Wine
	1:44pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:39 Frank Zataar! A fave of mine too.
	🥁 1:45pm duke: Third Mind is Dave Alvin's band. They do a lot of interesting covers.
	1:46pm Bob Brainen: Gerry from Miami!
	1:48pm Gerry from Miami: The Third Mind is definitely a band to keep an eye on! That Electric Flag cover was wonderful!
	🥁 1:48pm wmfromd: ↳ Song: "Blue Revelations" by "Lewis & Clarke Expedition" I dig these guys. They have a few nonLP singles that are quite good.
	1:50pm Frank Zaatar: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:44 Who played the guitar solo on that one?
	1:50pm ?: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @1:08 Hi, there, Andrew in Toronto! Happy Veterans' Day + Remembrance Day!
	1:52pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Bob Brainen @1:46 Thanks, Frank. To you, as well.
	1:53pm Andrew in Toronto: What another great show! Thanks, Bob.
	1:53pm Bob Brainen: ↳ Frank Zaatar @1:50 On the cover? Dave Alvin, I'd think. Mike Bloomfield, of course, on original.
	1:55pm Frank Zaatar: I'd like to take credit for those good wishes, but they were written by someone else (Rudy Martinez?). But yes, Happy Veterans day.
	🥁 1:57pm (Mr) Bill: Another Saturday with a great deal of music to savor and remember. Thanks, Bob.
	🥁 1:58pm wmfromd: Great show and much needed. Thanks Bob!
	🥁 1:58pm (Mr) Bill: Wildfire.
	🥁 1:58pm duke: Thanks Bob
	1:58pm Soule: Beautiful show today!
	1:59pm Frank Zaatar: Wear light-colored clothes.
	🥁 1:59pm chresti: Thanks Bob!
