	9:35pm Will thee Sound Guy: Solid opening set of the 2nd show Nate!!!
	9:37pm ultradamno: Could be a reference to The Fall or the Luke Rheinhart novel that song was based on...

	9:40pm Bucci: ↳ The Spoony @9:32 Hey Spoony! It’s doubly nice to see YOU
	9:40pm ultradamno: Noticing your Count It Down notice, this is the #5albums23 list I put together last month for consideration twitter.com... (for non-twits, it's 99 Letters, Optic Sink, Italia 90, Bathouse, Watching The Void, Crime & The City Solution, Xolan Potter's Nightmare Band, Baraque à Free and Квалиа) since then I've picked up and would factor in Pyrex, Red Herrings and Ivan The Tolerable, fwiw
	9:41pm Franco Twinkie: Recently I asked a new friend to explain crust punk in the UK to me. He looked confused. "When were you born?" "1979" "Nevermind, I'll have the usual."
	9:42pm Bucci: ↳ Nate K. @9:39 Hour 2 is cooking!
	9:42pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @9:40 The new Nolan Potter is good? I didn't get it. I have it listed, though.
	9:43pm Nate K.: ↳ Bucci @9:42 Doing my best!

	9:45pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 I got that - I wanted to hear 'When I was growing up in Bradford...
	9:45pm Bucci: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:41 Wait so did you ever learn about crust punk?
	9:46pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bucci @9:45 Franco, don't answer. As your attorney, I recommend pressuring Bucci to make this question the theme of next week's show.
	9:47pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Bucci @9:45 Not really. Put that in the file with everything else that past me by.
	9:47pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:44 libraryoftheoccult.bandcamp.com...
	9:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Pure Particles" by "The Bug Club" Just so good. Why did it take us this long to love the Bug Club, and why did it take this shitty planet so long to produce the Bug Club? Is there a place I can file a protest?
	9:51pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Pure Particles" by "The Bug Club" *****
	9:52pm HyperDose: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:51 Get in line, pal!
	9:55pm rich the greeb: Love this heavenly song!
	9:55pm HyperDose: Melenas!
	9:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Bang" by "Melenas" Great record, this.
	10:01pm HyperDose: I'm more of a Dias Raros guy (En Madrid being my favorite track), but Ahora rocks too

	10:04pm Richy4619: ☆ﾟ。ﾟ。ﾟ*
	10:08pm Franco Twinkie: That's great! Macro economics instead of Marshall Amps.
	10:11pm Mike W.: Jay Hinman is a zine world legend, a real one for decades
	10:11pm chris_in_space: Anyone catch the name of the 'zine that @Nate K mentioned turned him onto Society? Dynamite something?
	10:11pm ultradamno: Jen Calleja of Sauna Youth is on the twixter on blueskies, she is primarily a writer and translator now, in fact she did the Kleenex/Liliput book
	10:12pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @10:11 (the translating of it, that is)
	10:12pm Mike From Brooklyn: Hey Nate & Listeners? I'm busy and can't really comment but I'm listening. Hey The Spoony, Medson, Chris Crash, Will thee Sound Guy! Hey Handy Haversack! I hope you and K8 are relaxing and doing better and better.
	10:13pm chris_in_space: Never mind. Found it. Dynamite Hemorrhage!
	10:15pm Nate K.: ↳ Mike From Brooklyn @10:12 Hey, Mike!
	10:17pm The Spoony: ↳ Mike From Brooklyn @10:12 Hey Mike!
	10:19pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Sightseer" by "Red Herrings" That is just some of that dirty ol' punk rock right there.
	10:22pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Fruit And Iceburgs/Between Time" by "Randy Holden" I liked Blue Cheer when I was a kid. Surly, the grave is calling me.
	10:23pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @10:19 It's a truly great record.
	10:24pm ultradamno: Me too...Parchment Farm!
	10:24pm Franco Twinkie: Hell fucking yes!
	10:25pm Amygdala: ↳ Song: "Fruit And Iceburgs/Between Time" by "Randy Holden" Sweetness! Lovin' it!
	10:25pm ultradamno: ↳ Nate K. @10:23 That one and that Pyrex kind of take me back to the kind of punk rock that introduced me to the concept.
	10:27pm ultradamno: (but at the same time, I wouldn't call either retro)
	10:28pm Brian Smith: just tuned in. Good stuff . Thanks !
	10:29pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Tales of Lucy Blue" by "Bob Seger System" I got to see Bob Seger once at around the height of his popularity...he really put on a show
	10:35pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @10:29 He's an interesting guy.
	10:36pm brian smith: @ultradamo. To this day, even in every small town, Michigan has a very active music scene.
	10:37pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Vaporize Skin and Hair" by "Burning Plastic Blues... 🔥🔥🔥🔥
	10:39pm chris_in_space: Circus Devils for the win!
	10:39pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Difficult Dreamer" by "The Circus Devils" I like this vision of the underworld.
	10:40pm The Spoony: ↳ Song: "Emotional Grotesque" by "Why Bother?" This Goons jam is the shit.
	10:40pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Emotional Grotesque" by "Why Bother?" Now we're taking off!

	10:46pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Emotional Grotesque" by "Why Bother?" I liked the singing
	10:48pm Saltonstall: Why Bother? Is from Iowa… did they move?
	10:50pm P-90: I’d LOVE to hear Bob’s experimental drone record
	10:51pm Franco Twinkie: Hair, mud, WHERE!?
	10:51pm chresti: ↳ P-90 @10:50 Lol
	10:52pm Saltonstall: @brian smith- c’mon, there ain’t no music scene in Millington or Ubly or New Lothrop or Gladwin or Capac or Paw Paw or Mio…
	10:53pm ultradamno: ↳ brian smith @10:36 If you saw the reboot season of Justified, it was set in Detroit and made a point of having the bad guy a lover of White Stripes and Protomartyr
	10:54pm Saltonstall: Tawas City hasn’t had a scene since Afterbirth broke up in the early 90s
	10:54pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Bloop" by "The Three Johns" I should tell my brother about this. He loved the name "john" when he was about 4
	10:57pm ultradamno: I first heard them on this comp, which is great www.discogs.com...
	10:58pm chresti: ↳ chresti @10:54 And his name is Maxx-whoa!
	10:58pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @10:53 I like the idea of the hero liking Protomartyr.
	10:58pm Brian Smith: beg to differ. there is great bluegrass in Cassopolis and many small towns have their unknown music icons. Maybe that is true everywhere, but in Michigan the local talent is more revered than other places I have lived.
	10:59pm Saltonstall: There are so many worser Detroit-area bands to connect the baddie to: Rogues, Kid Rock, Rebel Hell, Ted Nugent, Almighty Lumberjacks of Death…
	11:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Nate. Don't hear much Insane Clown Posse on WFMU.
	11:01pm Lawrence: Love these weird Canned Heat tracks. Was talking today with some people about "Poor Moon," which sounds like Can.
	11:01pm ultradamno: KID ROCK...but they wanted him to be a hipster, kind of...
	11:02pm Nate K.: ↳ Saltonstall @10:59 Kid Rock for sure
	11:02pm Nate K.: ↳ Leif Ericson @10:42 Thanks!
	11:02pm Saltonstall: The Thumb is a desert for decent music. Sheesh… there are bands here and there, but cmon name one band from Alcona County or Lake or Lenawee or Luce…
	11:03pm Nate K.: ↳ Lawrence @11:01 Best jam!
	11:05pm Saltonstall: Twisted Brown Trucker should stage a coup and replace Kid Rock with Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope
	11:06pm Brian Smith: Tommy James from Niles MI...
	11:07pm chresti: ↳ Lawrence @11:01 Love "Poor Moon"
	11:08pm Saltonstall: There’s some killer bluegrass dudes in Davison, but 98% of small town Michigan is the ships for decent original music
	11:09pm Brian Smith: I am from Muskegon - Buster Keaton's west Michigan coast.
	11:10pm Saltonstall: Muskegon was home of The Ice Pick- tons of great bands and even more not great bands
	11:12pm Saltonstall: Grand Haven had a scene going back in the day
	11:13pm Brian Smith: I used to live above the ice pick ! Mark is an old friend.
	11:14pm Saltonstall: Spaniola?
	11:15pm Saltonstall: I ran in to Jake from PBs a number of years back. He’s still racist.
	11:17pm Brian Smith: I lived there when Melt Banana performed GREAT SHOW !!!
	11:17pm Amygdala: ↳ chresti @11:07 Chresti / Lawrence Canned Heat / Poor Moon... good tune....a new one for (living-under-a-rock) me. Gracias!
	11:19pm Saltonstall: Melt Banana loved Muskegon. My Uncle Ed owned Herron Grocery which was on the same block as The Ice Pick, but it closed in the late 70s
	11:20pm Brian Smith: yes Spaniloa. He and roy toured as the band for GG Allin for a while. its on youtube.
	11:20pm ultradamno: Speaking of MI acts, I like to remind people from time to time this band is on Bandcamp morsel.bandcamp.com
	11:21pm Saltonstall: @brian- you know anything about the PCBs (Port City Bastards)? Early 80s Muskegon band? What about Don Kent and Jerry’s Kids? They were killer.
	11:22pm Saltonstall: Morsel’s bass player had great hair… I think they were related to the band Wig… seriously… haha
	11:22pm glowingcabbage: Great show Nate! Listening in New Brunswick Canada. Canada loves WFMU.
	11:23pm Brian Smith: Small world. I shopped at that grocery. Nice to meet you. You are now family brother. I wish you the very best.
	11:27pm chresti: ↳ Amygdala @11:17 De nada!
	11:28pm Saltonstall: That’s great- it wasn’t the big grocery from the 80s though… the one where Ice Pickers would buy cases of Pfeifer and Drewrys… but a smaller store… they owned O’Herrons Restaraunt and my cousin Tom used to own Mr Scribs
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Had I even said Hullo ? ...Hullo.
	11:31pm Brian Smith: I am in Soth Carolina now. Where are you @salton ?
	11:32pm Saltonstall: Chicago, but I’m a Flint native
	11:32pm ultradamno: ↳ Saltonstall @11:22 Could be chopped off in this picture... but then great is fleeting... smallstone.com...
	11:33pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @11:32 great *hair, that is
	11:34pm Brian Smith: gotta love Chi town.
	11:35pm Saltonstall: Dude in the rear had massive dreads if I recall. Hair that could command an entire room.
	11:36pm ultradamno: TAKE OVER INFLATABLE SQUIRREL CARCASS!!!! THREE MORE HOURS!
	11:37pm Brian Smith: Roy Vannis, aka Elvis Roy...
	11:39pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @11:36 Not sure if I could even I tried. LOL.
	11:39pm Saltonstall: Disappointments were hyped by none other than John Peel. Elvis worked The Ice Pick alley door… that was a thankless job
	11:39pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Nate.
	11:39pm Nate K.: ↳ glowingcabbage @11:22 Awesome!
	11:41pm Brian Smith: I lived in Roy's former tattoo room it's walls and ceiling were covered in mirror tiles which were covered in stickers from punk bands that played there. it was kind of surreal.
	11:41pm medson: Great show Nate see ya all
	11:42pm Saltonstall: Did Jake do tattoos with Roy?
	11:44pm Saltonstall: Pecker Tracks played my basement in Kalamazoo once. Great Muskegon band
	11:45pm borneo: vocalist masturbation. this guy sucks
	11:46pm Brian Smith: I never forget how lucky I am to know the people who were my friends or, however dire at the time, the amazing circumstances I found myself in. I am a lucky dude.
	11:46pm Saltonstall: Jim Shepard is an Ohio icon.
	11:47pm Nate K.: ↳ borneo @11:45 See Saltonstall's comment below, with which I firmly agree.
	11:47pm Brian Smith: My crowd centered around a band called "Peace".
	11:48pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Astral Weeks (live cover)" by "Jim Shepard" Great song, despite what certain people say
	11:48pm Nate K.: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:48 right on
	11:49pm Saltonstall: Columbus had one of the best underground scenes in the 80s and 90s and Jim Shepard was a big wheel there
	11:51pm Roberto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:48 People whose name rhymes with Merwin Blue Squid?
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Why.....yes!
	11:52pm ultradamno: I saw The Mekons in Columbus once. Great show.
	11:52pm Nate K.: ↳ Saltonstall @11:49 100 percent
	11:52pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Astral Weeks (live cover)" by "Jim Shepard" Was reminding me of Van Morrison
	11:56pm Erica from Cranford: Thanks for 4 hours, Nate!
	11:57pm Nate K.: ↳ Erica from Cranford @11:56 Thanks for listening!
	11:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Nate. Have a nice weekend!
	11:59pm HyperDose: Killer 3hrs Nate. Just try and get that hooligan who broadcast an hour of filth before your show in custody next time, yeah? ;)

	12:03am Mike From Brooklyn: Thanks Nate!

	9:40pm ultradamno: Noticing your Count It Down notice, this is the #5albums23 list I put together last month for consideration twitter.com... (for non-twits, it's 99 Letters, Optic Sink, Italia 90, Bathouse, Watching The Void, Crime & The City Solution, Xolan Potter's Nightmare Band, Baraque à Free and Квалиа) since then I've picked up and would factor in Pyrex, Red Herrings and Ivan The Tolerable, fwiw
	9:41pm Franco Twinkie: Recently I asked a new friend to explain crust punk in the UK to me. He looked confused. "When were you born?" "1979" "Nevermind, I'll have the usual."
	9:42pm Bucci: ↳ Nate K. @9:39 Hour 2 is cooking!
	9:42pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @9:40 The new Nolan Potter is good? I didn't get it. I have it listed, though.

	9:45pm Bucci: ↳ Franco Twinkie @9:41 Wait so did you ever learn about crust punk?
	9:46pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bucci @9:45 Franco, don't answer. As your attorney, I recommend pressuring Bucci to make this question the theme of next week's show.
	9:47pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Bucci @9:45 Not really. Put that in the file with everything else that past me by.
	9:47pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @9:44 libraryoftheoccult.bandcamp.com...
	9:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Pure Particles" by "The Bug Club" Just so good. Why did it take us this long to love the Bug Club, and why did it take this shitty planet so long to produce the Bug Club? Is there a place I can file a protest?
	9:51pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Pure Particles" by "The Bug Club" *****

	10:24pm ultradamno: Me too...Parchment Farm!
	10:24pm Franco Twinkie: Hell fucking yes!
	10:25pm Amygdala: ↳ Song: "Fruit And Iceburgs/Between Time" by "Randy Holden" Sweetness! Lovin' it!
	10:25pm ultradamno: ↳ Nate K. @10:23 That one and that Pyrex kind of take me back to the kind of punk rock that introduced me to the concept.
	10:27pm ultradamno: (but at the same time, I wouldn't call either retro)
	10:28pm Brian Smith: just tuned in. Good stuff . Thanks !
	10:29pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "Tales of Lucy Blue" by "Bob Seger System" I got to see Bob Seger once at around the height of his popularity...he really put on a show
	10:35pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @10:29 He's an interesting guy.
	10:36pm brian smith: @ultradamo. To this day, even in every small town, Michigan has a very active music scene.
	10:37pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Vaporize Skin and Hair" by "Burning Plastic Blues... 🔥🔥🔥🔥

	10:50pm P-90: I’d LOVE to hear Bob’s experimental drone record
	10:51pm Franco Twinkie: Hair, mud, WHERE!?
	10:51pm chresti: ↳ P-90 @10:50 Lol
	10:52pm Saltonstall: @brian smith- c’mon, there ain’t no music scene in Millington or Ubly or New Lothrop or Gladwin or Capac or Paw Paw or Mio…
	10:53pm ultradamno: ↳ brian smith @10:36 If you saw the reboot season of Justified, it was set in Detroit and made a point of having the bad guy a lover of White Stripes and Protomartyr
	10:54pm Saltonstall: Tawas City hasn’t had a scene since Afterbirth broke up in the early 90s
	10:54pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Bloop" by "The Three Johns" I should tell my brother about this. He loved the name "john" when he was about 4
	10:57pm ultradamno: I first heard them on this comp, which is great www.discogs.com...
	10:58pm chresti: ↳ chresti @10:54 And his name is Maxx-whoa!
	10:58pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @10:53 I like the idea of the hero liking Protomartyr.
	10:58pm Brian Smith: beg to differ. there is great bluegrass in Cassopolis and many small towns have their unknown music icons. Maybe that is true everywhere, but in Michigan the local talent is more revered than other places I have lived.
	10:59pm Saltonstall: There are so many worser Detroit-area bands to connect the baddie to: Rogues, Kid Rock, Rebel Hell, Ted Nugent, Almighty Lumberjacks of Death…
	11:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Nate. Don't hear much Insane Clown Posse on WFMU.
	11:01pm Lawrence: Love these weird Canned Heat tracks. Was talking today with some people about "Poor Moon," which sounds like Can.
	11:01pm ultradamno: KID ROCK...but they wanted him to be a hipster, kind of...
	11:02pm Nate K.: ↳ Saltonstall @10:59 Kid Rock for sure
	11:02pm Nate K.: ↳ Leif Ericson @10:42 Thanks!
	11:02pm Saltonstall: The Thumb is a desert for decent music. Sheesh… there are bands here and there, but cmon name one band from Alcona County or Lake or Lenawee or Luce…
	11:03pm Nate K.: ↳ Lawrence @11:01 Best jam!
	11:05pm Saltonstall: Twisted Brown Trucker should stage a coup and replace Kid Rock with Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope
	11:06pm Brian Smith: Tommy James from Niles MI...
	11:07pm chresti: ↳ Lawrence @11:01 Love "Poor Moon"
	11:08pm Saltonstall: There’s some killer bluegrass dudes in Davison, but 98% of small town Michigan is the ships for decent original music
	11:09pm Brian Smith: I am from Muskegon - Buster Keaton's west Michigan coast.
	11:10pm Saltonstall: Muskegon was home of The Ice Pick- tons of great bands and even more not great bands
	11:12pm Saltonstall: Grand Haven had a scene going back in the day
	11:13pm Brian Smith: I used to live above the ice pick ! Mark is an old friend.
	11:14pm Saltonstall: Spaniola?
	11:15pm Saltonstall: I ran in to Jake from PBs a number of years back. He’s still racist.
	11:17pm Brian Smith: I lived there when Melt Banana performed GREAT SHOW !!!
	11:17pm Amygdala: ↳ chresti @11:07 Chresti / Lawrence Canned Heat / Poor Moon... good tune....a new one for (living-under-a-rock) me. Gracias!
	11:19pm Saltonstall: Melt Banana loved Muskegon. My Uncle Ed owned Herron Grocery which was on the same block as The Ice Pick, but it closed in the late 70s
	11:20pm Brian Smith: yes Spaniloa. He and roy toured as the band for GG Allin for a while. its on youtube.
	11:20pm ultradamno: Speaking of MI acts, I like to remind people from time to time this band is on Bandcamp morsel.bandcamp.com
	11:21pm Saltonstall: @brian- you know anything about the PCBs (Port City Bastards)? Early 80s Muskegon band? What about Don Kent and Jerry’s Kids? They were killer.
	11:22pm Saltonstall: Morsel’s bass player had great hair… I think they were related to the band Wig… seriously… haha
	11:22pm glowingcabbage: Great show Nate! Listening in New Brunswick Canada. Canada loves WFMU.
	11:23pm Brian Smith: Small world. I shopped at that grocery. Nice to meet you. You are now family brother. I wish you the very best.
	11:27pm chresti: ↳ Amygdala @11:17 De nada!
	11:28pm Saltonstall: That’s great- it wasn’t the big grocery from the 80s though… the one where Ice Pickers would buy cases of Pfeifer and Drewrys… but a smaller store… they owned O’Herrons Restaraunt and my cousin Tom used to own Mr Scribs
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Had I even said Hullo ? ...Hullo.
	11:31pm Brian Smith: I am in Soth Carolina now. Where are you @salton ?
	11:32pm Saltonstall: Chicago, but I’m a Flint native
	11:32pm ultradamno: ↳ Saltonstall @11:22 Could be chopped off in this picture... but then great is fleeting... smallstone.com...
	11:33pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @11:32 great *hair, that is
	11:34pm Brian Smith: gotta love Chi town.
	11:35pm Saltonstall: Dude in the rear had massive dreads if I recall. Hair that could command an entire room.
	11:36pm ultradamno: TAKE OVER INFLATABLE SQUIRREL CARCASS!!!! THREE MORE HOURS!
	11:37pm Brian Smith: Roy Vannis, aka Elvis Roy...
	11:39pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @11:36 Not sure if I could even I tried. LOL.
	11:39pm Saltonstall: Disappointments were hyped by none other than John Peel. Elvis worked The Ice Pick alley door… that was a thankless job
	11:39pm Handy Haversack: Thanks, Nate.
	11:39pm Nate K.: ↳ glowingcabbage @11:22 Awesome!
	11:41pm Brian Smith: I lived in Roy's former tattoo room it's walls and ceiling were covered in mirror tiles which were covered in stickers from punk bands that played there. it was kind of surreal.
	11:41pm medson: Great show Nate see ya all
	11:42pm Saltonstall: Did Jake do tattoos with Roy?
	11:44pm Saltonstall: Pecker Tracks played my basement in Kalamazoo once. Great Muskegon band
	11:45pm borneo: vocalist masturbation. this guy sucks
	11:46pm Brian Smith: I never forget how lucky I am to know the people who were my friends or, however dire at the time, the amazing circumstances I found myself in. I am a lucky dude.
	11:46pm Saltonstall: Jim Shepard is an Ohio icon.
	11:47pm Nate K.: ↳ borneo @11:45 See Saltonstall's comment below, with which I firmly agree.
	11:47pm Brian Smith: My crowd centered around a band called "Peace".
	11:48pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Astral Weeks (live cover)" by "Jim Shepard" Great song, despite what certain people say
	11:48pm Nate K.: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:48 right on
	11:49pm Saltonstall: Columbus had one of the best underground scenes in the 80s and 90s and Jim Shepard was a big wheel there
	11:51pm Roberto: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:48 People whose name rhymes with Merwin Blue Squid?
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Why.....yes!
	11:52pm ultradamno: I saw The Mekons in Columbus once. Great show.
	11:52pm Nate K.: ↳ Saltonstall @11:49 100 percent
	11:52pm chresti: ↳ Song: "Astral Weeks (live cover)" by "Jim Shepard" Was reminding me of Van Morrison
