	⚡ 6:18am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "High on a Rocky Ledge (ft. Marissa Nadler)" by "G... this song usually reduces me to tears...
	6:19am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:18 I'm singing along to it here, Tom Tom.
	6:20am Barbie: Morning all always nice to wake up to Currents
	6:21am Brian D: ↳ Barbie @6:20 Hi Barbie! Getting ready to rake?
	6:22am Juli: Lol CIA
	6:23am Brian D: ↳ Juli @6:22 Some poster, huh?
	6:24am morphe': ↳ Song: "High on a Rocky Ledge (ft. Marissa Nadler)" by "G... A striking color [or colorized] photo of Moondog pops up ... I've only ever seen B/W.. https://moondog-music.com
	6:25am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @6:24 I've actually seen that one. Can't remember where.
	⚡ 6:25am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:24 he's in color on at least one album cover
	6:30am morphe': Re: The CIA's Contras Cartoon Sabotage Manual https://medium.com/the-semaphore/this-1983-cia-comic-book-instructed-nicaraguan-contras-in-sabotage-4d346baa1d9f
	⚡ 6:30am tom tom the pipers son: moondog and moondog 2, nice images...
	6:32am Toothgrinder Tom: I’ve said that many times.
	6:33am fred: One day in college, I skipped class to go to my fave pub. Bummer was they were out of Guinness. Worse was that it was because The Pogues did an aftershow party there the night before and I missed that. The silver lining is that a guy there took pity and proceeded to school me on whisky (I first said I didn't like the stuff). Turned out he was the owner, and that I do like the good stuff. I didn't pay anything for that lesson, but it was all the learning I did that day
	⚡ 6:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:30 amazing thx for posting
	6:34am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:33 Some good learning there, Fred.
	⚡ 6:38am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:30 makes you think of the mindset that was exploited to form contras
	6:38am Robm: @Brian d is that RTE?
	6:39am Brian D: ↳ Robm @6:38 I took that from Euronews but they may share "content" (I hate that word) with RTE.
	⚡ 6:41am tom tom the pipers son: "content" sounds like creamed corn in a can
	6:41am Robm: ↳ Brian D @6:39 thanks RTE is one of the international broadcasters i listen too
	6:41am Juli: Coffee & Tea. Saturday.
	6:43am fred: Last year I saw a dance show in the Louvre, the Raft of the Medusa is huge, but no sunglasses in there (also Mona Lisa is tiny and clean shaven). I remember getting Rum, Sodomy & the Lash at a record store in a sleepy country town, embarrassing my mother in the process
	6:43am Robm: ↳ Juli @6:41 hi juli
	6:44am Strandlund: ↳ Don in Tampere @6:05 Happy retirement, Don!! Congratulations!!
	6:45am Juli: ↳ Robm @6:43 Heyah!
	6:45am fred: ↳ fred @6:43 I meant the record, not the actual thing
	⚡ 6:45am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:41 'Content' goes along with form, and it's the form that inexorably prevails: accumulation under the value-form. Sorry for that; couldn't help myself.
	6:46am Strandlund: Good Morning Brian and all those listening in...
	6:47am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:45 Why was your mother embarrassed?
	6:47am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:41 Tastes like it, too.
	6:48am Brian D: ↳ Strandlund @6:46 Greetings Strand...
	⚡ 6:48am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:45 "it's the form that inexorably prevails"and content treated like cremed corn
	⚡ 6:50am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:48 Or pea soup. You got it!
	6:50am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:47 I dunno, something about Catholic mores I guess (this was before that rose to an anthem for church priests)
	6:51am Cooh John: Good morning Brian and current eventers. Let's make some noise. Let's make some news. Let's make some peace, love, and unity.🙏🏻
	6:51am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:50 Ah those pesky Catholic mores... I'm still getting over those.
	6:51am morphe': "ONE FOR THE ROAD Shane MacGowan finished recording final album before death as pals reveal ‘beautiful old & new songs’ details" [from The Sun????] "...Shane had been working with pals for seven years on a solo album It includes guest performances by former Pogues band members Spider Stacey and Jem Finer. Shane had hooked up with Irish indie band Cronin to record the 15-track album..." https://www.thesun.ie/tvandshowbiz/11775619/shane-macgowan-secret-final-album-songs-details/
	6:51am Juli: Out of coconut milk:: Must drive Wish to be stoned instead So Cinnamon Black Coffee
	6:51am Brian D: ↳ Cooh John @6:51 Hey Cooh. Welcome in.
	⚡ 6:54am tom tom the pipers son: wonder is the tolerance of audiences for long jams is commensurate with the amount of strife in the world...
	6:54am TDK60: Was that Inutili supposed to be a version of the Coltrane piece? I heard no resemblance.
	⚡ 6:55am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:50 The content don't matter none, just as long as the value accumulates endlessly under the form.
	6:57am fred: I only saw The Pogues once, opening for U2 with UB40 (so it was long ago). So I never got the real experience. I was too young I guess, then when I should have known better I didn't
	6:57am Cooh John: Thanks Brian. Member of that post Catholic club too.
	⚡ 6:58am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:55 isn't this what happens with many late career artists who's work empties of content.. yayoi kusama comes to mind
	6:59am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @6:54 Nope. Think the title was the only link.
	7:00am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:57 Saw them three times. Shane wasn't at his best for one of the shows. The other two he was on top of his game.
	7:00am TDK60: ↳ Brian D @6:59 Oh! Thanks. Maybe they never heard of Coltrane. It's possible.
	7:01am Toothgrinder Tom: They say he and his band made Irish trad music ‘cool’ again or nearly.
	7:01am morphe': Just read that Shane's Ma died in 2017 [aged 87] in a car accident .. Shane got "peacefully at home.." All we can ask for...
	⚡ 7:02am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 Good example. The form can process any content at all, even the most vacuous and poisonous. The only condition is: accumulate.
	⚡ 7:02am Don in Tampere: Thanks, all for the retirement wishes. I certainly don't expect to be bored! I am trying to remember if I eber saw the Pogues after the first time in Zurich in 1985, when the drummer had a broken arm and was playing one-handed
	7:02am fred: Sad that Kissinger lived that long. He died at home, not even crashing through the roof thrown from a helicopter or having said home bomb carpet-bombed
	7:02am Toothgrinder Tom: But I never saw him as an Irish trad musician, really.
	7:03am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @7:01 Yes. As soon as I heard he was discharged from the hospital I assumed that was what was happening.
	7:03am radioronan: Good morning Brian and everyone!
	7:04am Toothgrinder Tom: Although I could see him as a lyricist-poet in the tradition of Yeats, Joyce, Beckett & etcetera.
	⚡ 7:04am Michael of Cologne: ↳ fred @7:02 What made (makes) a Kissinger possible, even inevitable? There will be more; all variations on the same ugly theme.
	⚡ 7:04am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:02 kusama was a good artist to begin with
	7:05am Toothgrinder Tom: Limning the Irish experience in all of its dark and light variegations.
	7:05am TDK60: Of course, the slaughter continues in Gaza, backed by arms supplied from the "greatest purveyor of violence" (MLK), the USA. // Kissinger was a great American. He was a shining example of what the USA is really all about.
	7:05am fred: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @7:02 I think he was a great representative for people from Irish descent, and those who had to move away. So not exactly authentic, but in touch with something
	7:06am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:02 Yeah, he deserved to die in a Cambodian rice paddy.
	⚡ 7:06am Will thee Sound Guy: Good morning Brian D and all!!!
	7:07am Brian D: Greetings Will and Ronan.
	⚡ 7:07am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:06 yes a ring of hell where he eternally steps on a landmine
	7:07am Toothgrinder Tom: @fred yes I’ve read that he was a poet of the diaspora though at the time I never knew he wasn’t born in Ireland.
	7:09am fred: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:04 We do
	⚡ 7:10am Michael of Cologne: ↳ TDK60 @7:05 The U.S. are the defender of the 'free world', but what kind of freedom is it?
	⚡ 7:11am tom tom the pipers son: obit in the nation for "hk" www.thenation.com...
	⚡ 7:12am Michael of Cologne: ↳ fred @7:09 Time we asked more deeply who we are, I'd say.
	7:12am Brian D: Rolling Stone obit: www.rollingstone.com...
	⚡ 7:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Grubby" by "Fly Ashtray" that were good, disappointed i never saw them
	7:16am morphe': ↳ Song: "Clip: DW-more journalists killed in Israel/Gaza" https://cpj.org/2023/12/journalist-casualties-in-the-israel-gaza-conflict/
	⚡ 7:16am tom tom the pipers son: notice that no one is posting ny times obit...;)
	⚡ 7:17am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:16 Or its op eds.
	7:19am Strandlund: Remember this about ol' Kissenger: Kissinger's business dealings included close involvement with Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes. Once a board member at Theranos, he invested $3 million and recruited others who also opened up their wallets. Yeah...not an upstanding man in my book.
	7:19am fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:16 There are toilets for that
	7:19am HyperDose: Diggin the tunes, Mr. Brian
	⚡ 7:21am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:17 in the obit they do a ballet dance of equivocation to redeem him
	7:22am Brian D: ↳ HyperDose @7:19 Thank you, Hyper. Good morning.
	⚡ 7:23am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Strandlund @7:19 Apparently the married Kissinger had a long affair with Ingeborg Bachmann, which doesn't speak much for her taste in men.
	⚡ 7:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Marbles" by "Vanishing Twin" was that laetia sadier
	7:24am Toothgrinder Tom: Don’t forget @Michael that ‘power is the ultimate aphrodisiac!’
	7:24am Juli: J Watched Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
	7:24am Juli: My face wet w tears::::lol
	⚡ 7:24am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:21 The NYT often speaks of the "free world" without a hint of irony.
	7:25am mespr: That last track was very reminiscent of The Residents, Chew chew GUM chew GUM GUM chew chew
	7:26am Juli: Now I'm watching Hanna & listening to the Radio lol
	7:26am Otto: Well said
	⚡ 7:27am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @7:24 Bachmann was definitely very screwed up.
	7:28am Strandlund: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:23 I'll never forget how much of a "catch" he was to women in the early 70's. He was marketed as a hunk, then. He would have been Peoples sexiest man alive if that was going on at that time.
	7:29am rich in angleton: good morning Brian and everyone in radioland!
	7:31am Dan S: RIP Shane. One of my favorite Xmas songs, "Fairytale of New York," doesn't sound quite the same this December now that you've moved on.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ rich in angleton @7:29 Hey Rich!
	⚡ 7:32am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Strandlund @7:28 By the '70s Bachmann had accidentally killed herself by smoking in bed in Rome. A complicated story.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:31 Indeed. I may still play it, though. Not today but.
	7:32am morphe': ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:23 Ingeborg Bachmann, read her works, but never knew that ....
	7:34am Juli: Beautiful::::
	⚡ 7:35am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @7:32 I didn't know that either until the day before yesterday. I could hardly bear reading her Malina years ago; it's sooo neurotic.
	7:35am morphe': Ingeborg Bachmann - was she not manipulated by her therapist husband like one of her characters [herself] in a book .... I also thought did a head banger in the end??? like the said character in that book????
	7:37am morphe': Ingeborg Bachmann ... making me think of Tomas Bernhard ....
	⚡ 7:37am NotARealDoctor: wow this set is devastating in a way i was not expecting and i have tears streaming down my face at the dog park this morning
	7:38am SeanG: sing it Shane! fuck em' all!
	⚡ 7:39am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @7:35 Her "therapist husband"? She was in therapy and was addicted to a drug (forget which) that made her insensitive to heat. This insensitivity was finally fatal.
	7:39am morphe': ↳ Song: "Streets of Sorrow/Birmingham Six" by "The Pogues" Song was cut off by commercials when first played on TV even and afterwards fully banned by the BBC ...
	⚡ 7:41am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:39 i don't know about her but she sounds like a character in a fassbender film
	7:41am fred: ↳ morphe' @7:39 Their loss
	7:42am TDK60: I just found this quote yesterday: “People are talking about immigration, emigration and the rest of the fucking thing. It’s all fucking crap. We’re all human beings, we’re all mammals, we’re all rocks, plants, rivers. Fucking borders are just such a pain in the fucking arse.” --Shane MacGowan
	7:43am fred: ↳ Song: "Eve Of Destruction" by "The Pogues" Brian, are you tying to convince me Eve of Sunshine isn't the best?
	7:43am Dan S: It's all too fucking easy to believe we ARE on the Eve Of Destruction these days.
	7:43am Strandlund: Thanks Brian...this is wonderful!! RIP Shane...
	⚡ 7:44am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:39 The circumstances of Bachmann's death are shrouded in controversy; something along the lines the her therapist tried to deflect partial responsibility from herself by inventing a story about her having been murdered. There was a long article in the SZ (?) this past year or so; I forget the details.
	7:45am fred: ↳ TDK60 @7:42 I'll drink to that. And I agree
	7:46am SeanG: fuck yeah dude love this song
	7:46am fred: ↳ Song: "Turkish Song of the Damned" by "The Pogues" A rarely played fave, thanks Brian
	7:46am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:43 Ha! Have you not been listening all these years, Fred?
	7:48am TDK60: ↳ fred @7:45 Bonjour, Fred. I no longer drink, but I also agree.
	7:48am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Turkish Song of the Damned" by "The Pogues" A good song is worth playing two days in a row, and I couldn't catch Mona's show yesterday, so it's new to me.
	7:49am fred: ↳ Brian D @7:46 Twice recently though, that's a lot (though in WFMU terms, recent might mean months)
	7:50am Dan S: ↳ Song: "King of the Bop" by "The Nipple Erectors" One of the funnier band names ever.
	7:50am StringOFperils: Good morning! Yes! It really is!!! *sometimes I forget
	7:50am TDK60: Oh, Morphe': thanks for the link earlier to the photographs of MacGowan. I like the one with a young Shane at an early Clash show.
	7:51am morphe': ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:44 Did ya ever see the highly disturbing film: Der Todesking 1990 Not Rated 1h 20m has a headbanger suicide scene = not a child's fairytale film !!!!! "Not Rated" because it is off the charts...
	7:54am fred: Just thought about what kind of people would follow Shane and Mark E. Smith on social media these days. A cauldron of denying cool music
	7:56am fred: ↳ fred @7:54 Dentists would pour likes and likes though
	7:56am morphe': ↳ TDK60 @7:50 I like the young one of him with his Zines... so innocent seeming...
	8:01am morphe': ↳ Song: "Weekend" by "The Dictators" Kempner wrote the songs but Manitoba sang them???
	8:03am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @8:01 Kempner didn't write much of the Dictators stuff, but he had a few solo records and was also in the Del Lords, of course.
	8:12am morphe': chilly in the house ....was a cold night .. I'll wash the dishes to warm my hands ... listening from the kitchen ... thanks BD and all if I don't get back for the sign off ...
	8:14am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Follow The Leaders" by "Killing Joke" In the early 2000s I brought a young 20ish pal over to my castle to listen to some old early-'80s slabs, like this Killing Joke. My guest was shocked.
	8:18am Just Jim: That guitar tone is ferocious
	8:19am StringOFperils: Expecting presidents of anything to act without bias or self-interest seems hilarious when you consider it. Speaking of killing jokes.
	8:23am fred: Kissinger was the rare kind of person to witness concentration camps and say "hold my beer"
	8:24am Handy Haversack: Idles -- good way to wake up. Morning, Brian, all.
	8:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ morphe' @8:12 Talked to a real old friend from Tipperary last night. When Shane died, he realized "It's been ten years, but I need to talk to [Handy]."
	8:26am Brian D: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:25 Good morning, Handy. Hope you and Kate are well.
	8:28am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Reigns" by "IDLES" Idles. Bristol delivers again. On of HK's indirect victims was Chile's singer Victor Jara. Remembered here.
	8:28am Juli: Oh like in the wars?>
	8:30am StringOFperils: ↳ TDK60 @8:28 Looking at this old picture of HK shaking hands w Pinochet, a shit-eating grin pasted across his 'realpolitik'-driven face, gives me the creeps
	8:31am Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian D @8:26 We've had better weeks, Brian, that's for sure. Well wishes much appreciated.
	8:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian D @8:26 That's a real good-looking MacGowan tribute. Wish I'd been up in time to hear it. Still can't quite fathom that he's gone.
	8:32am Juli: Fiesty
	8:32am Juli: Feisty
	8:33am Juli: V stoned lol
	8:34am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:31 Best wishes for K8 and yourself, Handy.
	8:34am Juli: Reminded me of Minus the bear whom I love
	8:35am morphe': ↳ Song: "Clip: BBC-president of Cop28 allegedly uses meeti... "Plans to present meat as ‘sustainable nutrition’ at Cop28 revealed Documents show industry intends to go ‘full force’ in arguing meat is beneficial to the environment at climate summit..." https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/nov/29/plans-to-present-meat-as-sustainable-nutrition-at-cop28-revealed
	8:35am fourth!: Erwitt was one of the greats, humor and pathos unlike any other. Will look forward to your tribute next week
	8:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @8:34 Thanks, TDK60. Just going to get cleaned up and fed and head back over there.
	⚡ 8:37am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @8:35 meat and oil like peanut butter and chocolate
	8:37am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Dr. Kissinger" by "David Frye" David Frye was funny. Died in 2011.
	8:38am Brian D: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:31 Sending them your way, then, sir. If I had Clay's pixie sound effect, I'd play it for you both.
	8:38am Handy Haversack: Which, also, thanks, Brian. Going to start abluting and put this on the FM waves. Good to wake up to you. Love the fire. Keep on burning, all.
	8:38am Brian D: ↳ fourth! @8:35 Guess I'm committed, then!
	8:39am morphe': ↳ Handy Haversack @8:25 A year of Irish Legend death ... With the coming and going I happen to be here for Christy Dingham, Sinead and now Shane
	8:41am fred: Again, rot in piss, Kissinger
	8:47am Gary K: Oh hell yes!! Destination Unknown!! Full speed ahead!!!
	8:48am TDK60: ↳ morphe' @8:39 Hola morphe' -- I had to look up Christy Dingham and realize I've never heard his band, Aslan.
	8:51am morphe': ↳ TDK60 @8:48 Christy Dingham I did not know them [Aslan] either but he was evidently a very much loved Dub and everyone was following his rapidly declining health and then a massive funeral ...
	8:51am Claire from Montclair: Keep singing along then wondering, how do I know these lyrics lol Enjoying the show!
	8:51am rich in angleton: I had forgotten how much I loved 'destination unknown'.. thanks for posting all those great links morphe'.. great show as always Brian. a great way to wake up on Saturday mornings.
	8:52am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by "Simple Minds" You're playing Our Song! Thanks, Brian! Sending this one out to K8! Love you so.

	6:20am Barbie: Morning all always nice to wake up to Currents
	6:21am Brian D: ↳ Barbie @6:20 Hi Barbie! Getting ready to rake?
	6:22am Juli: Lol CIA
	6:23am Brian D: ↳ Juli @6:22 Some poster, huh?
	6:24am morphe': ↳ Song: "High on a Rocky Ledge (ft. Marissa Nadler)" by "G... A striking color [or colorized] photo of Moondog pops up ... I've only ever seen B/W.. https://moondog-music.com
	6:25am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @6:24 I've actually seen that one. Can't remember where.
	⚡ 6:25am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:24 he's in color on at least one album cover

	⚡ 6:30am tom tom the pipers son: moondog and moondog 2, nice images...
	6:32am Toothgrinder Tom: I’ve said that many times.
	6:33am fred: One day in college, I skipped class to go to my fave pub. Bummer was they were out of Guinness. Worse was that it was because The Pogues did an aftershow party there the night before and I missed that. The silver lining is that a guy there took pity and proceeded to school me on whisky (I first said I didn't like the stuff). Turned out he was the owner, and that I do like the good stuff. I didn't pay anything for that lesson, but it was all the learning I did that day
	⚡ 6:33am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:30 amazing thx for posting
	6:34am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:33 Some good learning there, Fred.
	⚡ 6:38am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @6:30 makes you think of the mindset that was exploited to form contras
	6:38am Robm: @Brian d is that RTE?
	6:39am Brian D: ↳ Robm @6:38 I took that from Euronews but they may share "content" (I hate that word) with RTE.
	⚡ 6:41am tom tom the pipers son: "content" sounds like creamed corn in a can
	6:41am Robm: ↳ Brian D @6:39 thanks RTE is one of the international broadcasters i listen too
	6:41am Juli: Coffee & Tea. Saturday.
	6:43am fred: Last year I saw a dance show in the Louvre, the Raft of the Medusa is huge, but no sunglasses in there (also Mona Lisa is tiny and clean shaven). I remember getting Rum, Sodomy & the Lash at a record store in a sleepy country town, embarrassing my mother in the process
	6:43am Robm: ↳ Juli @6:41 hi juli
	6:44am Strandlund: ↳ Don in Tampere @6:05 Happy retirement, Don!! Congratulations!!
	6:45am Juli: ↳ Robm @6:43 Heyah!
	6:45am fred: ↳ fred @6:43 I meant the record, not the actual thing
	⚡ 6:45am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:41 'Content' goes along with form, and it's the form that inexorably prevails: accumulation under the value-form. Sorry for that; couldn't help myself.
	6:46am Strandlund: Good Morning Brian and all those listening in...
	6:47am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:45 Why was your mother embarrassed?
	6:47am Brian D: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:41 Tastes like it, too.
	6:48am Brian D: ↳ Strandlund @6:46 Greetings Strand...
	⚡ 6:48am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:45 "it's the form that inexorably prevails"and content treated like cremed corn
	⚡ 6:50am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:48 Or pea soup. You got it!
	6:50am fred: ↳ Brian D @6:47 I dunno, something about Catholic mores I guess (this was before that rose to an anthem for church priests)
	6:51am Cooh John: Good morning Brian and current eventers. Let's make some noise. Let's make some news. Let's make some peace, love, and unity.🙏🏻
	6:51am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:50 Ah those pesky Catholic mores... I'm still getting over those.
	6:51am morphe': "ONE FOR THE ROAD Shane MacGowan finished recording final album before death as pals reveal ‘beautiful old & new songs’ details" [from The Sun????] "...Shane had been working with pals for seven years on a solo album It includes guest performances by former Pogues band members Spider Stacey and Jem Finer. Shane had hooked up with Irish indie band Cronin to record the 15-track album..." https://www.thesun.ie/tvandshowbiz/11775619/shane-macgowan-secret-final-album-songs-details/
	6:51am Juli: Out of coconut milk:: Must drive Wish to be stoned instead So Cinnamon Black Coffee
	6:51am Brian D: ↳ Cooh John @6:51 Hey Cooh. Welcome in.
	⚡ 6:54am tom tom the pipers son: wonder is the tolerance of audiences for long jams is commensurate with the amount of strife in the world...
	6:54am TDK60: Was that Inutili supposed to be a version of the Coltrane piece? I heard no resemblance.
	⚡ 6:55am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:50 The content don't matter none, just as long as the value accumulates endlessly under the form.
	6:57am fred: I only saw The Pogues once, opening for U2 with UB40 (so it was long ago). So I never got the real experience. I was too young I guess, then when I should have known better I didn't
	6:57am Cooh John: Thanks Brian. Member of that post Catholic club too.
	⚡ 6:58am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @6:55 isn't this what happens with many late career artists who's work empties of content.. yayoi kusama comes to mind
	6:59am Brian D: ↳ TDK60 @6:54 Nope. Think the title was the only link.
	7:00am Brian D: ↳ fred @6:57 Saw them three times. Shane wasn't at his best for one of the shows. The other two he was on top of his game.
	7:00am TDK60: ↳ Brian D @6:59 Oh! Thanks. Maybe they never heard of Coltrane. It's possible.
	7:01am Toothgrinder Tom: They say he and his band made Irish trad music ‘cool’ again or nearly.
	7:01am morphe': Just read that Shane's Ma died in 2017 [aged 87] in a car accident .. Shane got "peacefully at home.." All we can ask for...
	⚡ 7:02am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @6:58 Good example. The form can process any content at all, even the most vacuous and poisonous. The only condition is: accumulate.
	⚡ 7:02am Don in Tampere: Thanks, all for the retirement wishes. I certainly don't expect to be bored! I am trying to remember if I eber saw the Pogues after the first time in Zurich in 1985, when the drummer had a broken arm and was playing one-handed
	7:02am fred: Sad that Kissinger lived that long. He died at home, not even crashing through the roof thrown from a helicopter or having said home bomb carpet-bombed
	7:02am Toothgrinder Tom: But I never saw him as an Irish trad musician, really.
	7:03am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @7:01 Yes. As soon as I heard he was discharged from the hospital I assumed that was what was happening.
	7:03am radioronan: Good morning Brian and everyone!
	7:04am Toothgrinder Tom: Although I could see him as a lyricist-poet in the tradition of Yeats, Joyce, Beckett & etcetera.
	⚡ 7:04am Michael of Cologne: ↳ fred @7:02 What made (makes) a Kissinger possible, even inevitable? There will be more; all variations on the same ugly theme.
	⚡ 7:04am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:02 kusama was a good artist to begin with
	7:05am Toothgrinder Tom: Limning the Irish experience in all of its dark and light variegations.
	7:05am TDK60: Of course, the slaughter continues in Gaza, backed by arms supplied from the "greatest purveyor of violence" (MLK), the USA. // Kissinger was a great American. He was a shining example of what the USA is really all about.
	7:05am fred: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @7:02 I think he was a great representative for people from Irish descent, and those who had to move away. So not exactly authentic, but in touch with something
	7:06am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:02 Yeah, he deserved to die in a Cambodian rice paddy.
	⚡ 7:06am Will thee Sound Guy: Good morning Brian D and all!!!
	7:07am Brian D: Greetings Will and Ronan.
	⚡ 7:07am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Brian D @7:06 yes a ring of hell where he eternally steps on a landmine
	7:07am Toothgrinder Tom: @fred yes I’ve read that he was a poet of the diaspora though at the time I never knew he wasn’t born in Ireland.
	7:09am fred: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:04 We do
	⚡ 7:10am Michael of Cologne: ↳ TDK60 @7:05 The U.S. are the defender of the 'free world', but what kind of freedom is it?
	⚡ 7:11am tom tom the pipers son: obit in the nation for "hk" www.thenation.com...
	⚡ 7:12am Michael of Cologne: ↳ fred @7:09 Time we asked more deeply who we are, I'd say.
	7:12am Brian D: Rolling Stone obit: www.rollingstone.com...
	⚡ 7:14am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Grubby" by "Fly Ashtray" that were good, disappointed i never saw them
	7:16am morphe': ↳ Song: "Clip: DW-more journalists killed in Israel/Gaza" https://cpj.org/2023/12/journalist-casualties-in-the-israel-gaza-conflict/
	⚡ 7:16am tom tom the pipers son: notice that no one is posting ny times obit...;)
	⚡ 7:17am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:16 Or its op eds.
	7:19am Strandlund: Remember this about ol' Kissenger: Kissinger's business dealings included close involvement with Theranos and Elizabeth Holmes. Once a board member at Theranos, he invested $3 million and recruited others who also opened up their wallets. Yeah...not an upstanding man in my book.
	7:19am fred: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:16 There are toilets for that
	7:19am HyperDose: Diggin the tunes, Mr. Brian
	⚡ 7:21am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:17 in the obit they do a ballet dance of equivocation to redeem him
	7:22am Brian D: ↳ HyperDose @7:19 Thank you, Hyper. Good morning.
	⚡ 7:23am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Strandlund @7:19 Apparently the married Kissinger had a long affair with Ingeborg Bachmann, which doesn't speak much for her taste in men.
	⚡ 7:24am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Marbles" by "Vanishing Twin" was that laetia sadier
	7:24am Toothgrinder Tom: Don’t forget @Michael that ‘power is the ultimate aphrodisiac!’
	7:24am Juli: J Watched Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon
	7:24am Juli: My face wet w tears::::lol
	⚡ 7:24am Michael of Cologne: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @7:21 The NYT often speaks of the "free world" without a hint of irony.
	7:25am mespr: That last track was very reminiscent of The Residents, Chew chew GUM chew GUM GUM chew chew
	7:26am Juli: Now I'm watching Hanna & listening to the Radio lol
	7:26am Otto: Well said
	⚡ 7:27am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @7:24 Bachmann was definitely very screwed up.
	7:28am Strandlund: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:23 I'll never forget how much of a "catch" he was to women in the early 70's. He was marketed as a hunk, then. He would have been Peoples sexiest man alive if that was going on at that time.
	7:29am rich in angleton: good morning Brian and everyone in radioland!
	7:31am Dan S: RIP Shane. One of my favorite Xmas songs, "Fairytale of New York," doesn't sound quite the same this December now that you've moved on.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ rich in angleton @7:29 Hey Rich!
	⚡ 7:32am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Strandlund @7:28 By the '70s Bachmann had accidentally killed herself by smoking in bed in Rome. A complicated story.
	7:32am Brian D: ↳ Dan S @7:31 Indeed. I may still play it, though. Not today but.
	7:32am morphe': ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:23 Ingeborg Bachmann, read her works, but never knew that ....
	7:34am Juli: Beautiful::::
	⚡ 7:35am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @7:32 I didn't know that either until the day before yesterday. I could hardly bear reading her Malina years ago; it's sooo neurotic.
	7:35am morphe': Ingeborg Bachmann - was she not manipulated by her therapist husband like one of her characters [herself] in a book .... I also thought did a head banger in the end??? like the said character in that book????
	7:37am morphe': Ingeborg Bachmann ... making me think of Tomas Bernhard ....
	⚡ 7:37am NotARealDoctor: wow this set is devastating in a way i was not expecting and i have tears streaming down my face at the dog park this morning
	7:38am SeanG: sing it Shane! fuck em' all!
	⚡ 7:39am Michael of Cologne: ↳ morphe' @7:35 Her "therapist husband"? She was in therapy and was addicted to a drug (forget which) that made her insensitive to heat. This insensitivity was finally fatal.
	7:39am morphe': ↳ Song: "Streets of Sorrow/Birmingham Six" by "The Pogues" Song was cut off by commercials when first played on TV even and afterwards fully banned by the BBC ...
	⚡ 7:41am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:39 i don't know about her but she sounds like a character in a fassbender film
	7:41am fred: ↳ morphe' @7:39 Their loss
	7:42am TDK60: I just found this quote yesterday: “People are talking about immigration, emigration and the rest of the fucking thing. It’s all fucking crap. We’re all human beings, we’re all mammals, we’re all rocks, plants, rivers. Fucking borders are just such a pain in the fucking arse.” --Shane MacGowan
	7:43am fred: ↳ Song: "Eve Of Destruction" by "The Pogues" Brian, are you tying to convince me Eve of Sunshine isn't the best?
	7:43am Dan S: It's all too fucking easy to believe we ARE on the Eve Of Destruction these days.
	7:43am Strandlund: Thanks Brian...this is wonderful!! RIP Shane...
	⚡ 7:44am Michael of Cologne: ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:39 The circumstances of Bachmann's death are shrouded in controversy; something along the lines the her therapist tried to deflect partial responsibility from herself by inventing a story about her having been murdered. There was a long article in the SZ (?) this past year or so; I forget the details.
	7:45am fred: ↳ TDK60 @7:42 I'll drink to that. And I agree
	7:46am SeanG: fuck yeah dude love this song
	7:46am fred: ↳ Song: "Turkish Song of the Damned" by "The Pogues" A rarely played fave, thanks Brian
	7:46am Brian D: ↳ fred @7:43 Ha! Have you not been listening all these years, Fred?
	7:48am TDK60: ↳ fred @7:45 Bonjour, Fred. I no longer drink, but I also agree.
	7:48am Dan S: ↳ Song: "Turkish Song of the Damned" by "The Pogues" A good song is worth playing two days in a row, and I couldn't catch Mona's show yesterday, so it's new to me.
	7:49am fred: ↳ Brian D @7:46 Twice recently though, that's a lot (though in WFMU terms, recent might mean months)
	7:50am Dan S: ↳ Song: "King of the Bop" by "The Nipple Erectors" One of the funnier band names ever.
	7:50am StringOFperils: Good morning! Yes! It really is!!! *sometimes I forget
	7:50am TDK60: Oh, Morphe': thanks for the link earlier to the photographs of MacGowan. I like the one with a young Shane at an early Clash show.
	7:51am morphe': ↳ Michael of Cologne @7:44 Did ya ever see the highly disturbing film: Der Todesking 1990 Not Rated 1h 20m has a headbanger suicide scene = not a child's fairytale film !!!!! "Not Rated" because it is off the charts...
	7:54am fred: Just thought about what kind of people would follow Shane and Mark E. Smith on social media these days. A cauldron of denying cool music
	7:56am fred: ↳ fred @7:54 Dentists would pour likes and likes though
	7:56am morphe': ↳ TDK60 @7:50 I like the young one of him with his Zines... so innocent seeming...
	8:01am morphe': ↳ Song: "Weekend" by "The Dictators" Kempner wrote the songs but Manitoba sang them???
	8:03am Brian D: ↳ morphe' @8:01 Kempner didn't write much of the Dictators stuff, but he had a few solo records and was also in the Del Lords, of course.
	8:12am morphe': chilly in the house ....was a cold night .. I'll wash the dishes to warm my hands ... listening from the kitchen ... thanks BD and all if I don't get back for the sign off ...
	8:14am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Follow The Leaders" by "Killing Joke" In the early 2000s I brought a young 20ish pal over to my castle to listen to some old early-'80s slabs, like this Killing Joke. My guest was shocked.
	8:18am Just Jim: That guitar tone is ferocious
	8:19am StringOFperils: Expecting presidents of anything to act without bias or self-interest seems hilarious when you consider it. Speaking of killing jokes.
	8:23am fred: Kissinger was the rare kind of person to witness concentration camps and say "hold my beer"
	8:24am Handy Haversack: Idles -- good way to wake up. Morning, Brian, all.
	8:25am Handy Haversack: ↳ morphe' @8:12 Talked to a real old friend from Tipperary last night. When Shane died, he realized "It's been ten years, but I need to talk to [Handy]."
	8:26am Brian D: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:25 Good morning, Handy. Hope you and Kate are well.
	8:28am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Reigns" by "IDLES" Idles. Bristol delivers again. On of HK's indirect victims was Chile's singer Victor Jara. Remembered here.
	8:28am Juli: Oh like in the wars?>
	8:30am StringOFperils: ↳ TDK60 @8:28 Looking at this old picture of HK shaking hands w Pinochet, a shit-eating grin pasted across his 'realpolitik'-driven face, gives me the creeps
	8:31am Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian D @8:26 We've had better weeks, Brian, that's for sure. Well wishes much appreciated.
	8:32am Handy Haversack: ↳ Brian D @8:26 That's a real good-looking MacGowan tribute. Wish I'd been up in time to hear it. Still can't quite fathom that he's gone.
	8:32am Juli: Fiesty
	8:32am Juli: Feisty
	8:33am Juli: V stoned lol
	8:34am TDK60: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:31 Best wishes for K8 and yourself, Handy.
	8:34am Juli: Reminded me of Minus the bear whom I love
	8:35am morphe': ↳ Song: "Clip: BBC-president of Cop28 allegedly uses meeti...

	8:35am fourth!: Erwitt was one of the greats, humor and pathos unlike any other. Will look forward to your tribute next week
	8:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ TDK60 @8:34 Thanks, TDK60. Just going to get cleaned up and fed and head back over there.
	⚡ 8:37am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ morphe' @8:35 meat and oil like peanut butter and chocolate
	8:37am TDK60: ↳ Song: "Dr. Kissinger" by "David Frye" David Frye was funny. Died in 2011.
	8:38am Brian D: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:31 Sending them your way, then, sir. If I had Clay's pixie sound effect, I'd play it for you both.
	8:38am Handy Haversack: Which, also, thanks, Brian. Going to start abluting and put this on the FM waves. Good to wake up to you. Love the fire. Keep on burning, all.
	8:38am Brian D: ↳ fourth! @8:35 Guess I'm committed, then!
	8:39am morphe': ↳ Handy Haversack @8:25 A year of Irish Legend death ... With the coming and going I happen to be here for Christy Dingham, Sinead and now Shane
	8:41am fred: Again, rot in piss, Kissinger
	8:47am Gary K: Oh hell yes!! Destination Unknown!! Full speed ahead!!!
	8:48am TDK60: ↳ morphe' @8:39 Hola morphe' -- I had to look up Christy Dingham and realize I've never heard his band, Aslan.
	8:51am morphe': ↳ TDK60 @8:48 Christy Dingham I did not know them [Aslan] either but he was evidently a very much loved Dub and everyone was following his rapidly declining health and then a massive funeral ...
	8:51am Claire from Montclair: Keep singing along then wondering, how do I know these lyrics lol Enjoying the show!
	8:51am rich in angleton: I had forgotten how much I loved 'destination unknown'.. thanks for posting all those great links morphe'.. great show as always Brian. a great way to wake up on Saturday mornings.
	8:52am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Don't You (Forget About Me)" by "Simple Minds" You're playing Our Song! Thanks, Brian! Sending this one out to K8! Love you so.
	8:53am Brian D: ↳ Handy Haversack @8:52 Had no idea! Happy accident. My best to you both.
	8:55am Strandlund: Thanks Brian!! Have a great weekend everyone!! Now...on to housework!!
	8:56am TDK60: Thanks for the show, Brian.
