	12:04pm listener james from westwood: Afternoon, efd and all!
	12:04pm Deano Bravo: I’m gonna have to seek out this Bliss Band, strong Sparks vibes!
	12:04pm tim: ↳ Song: "doctor" by "the bliss band" I'm not trying to be a buzzkill here, but it seems like ababy grand would be really hard to take away from someone.
	12:06pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:03 nice! Hope you found some good stuff!
	12:06pm efd: ↳ Deano Bravo @12:04 cannot guarantee those vibes across the whole album
	12:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "funtime" by "peter murphy" Peter's going full on Bowie's Scary Monsters here. SOunds pretty good to me!

	12:11pm bixa: hello !!
	12:11pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ northguineahills @12:10 Yo!

	12:13pm clarke: next FuZZ album cover: FuZZ And Other Delights (photo of Prof on a mound of whipped cream cheese)
	12:13pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" YEEEEESSSSSS
	12:14pm Mister Dobalina: What a great band name & catchy tune.
	12:14pm northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:11 heyas nycmn!
	12:14pm Andres: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" ANTHEM!!!
	12:15pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" 80s new wave sax!
	12:15pm tim: ↳ clarke @12:13 Good idea but I think cheeZZZE whiZZZ would work better.
	12:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" Produced by Daniel Lanois, who would go on to bigger things.
	12:15pm Whattawino: A day at the beach! Thanks, EFD!
	12:16pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:15 Sax on the beach? Sounds good to me!
	12:16pm Whattawino: HA!
	12:16pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" paging derek and dj babs~ (from transmissions from echo beach on sheena's jungle stream thurs 8-10pm.....)
	12:17pm efd: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:15 Mike Howlett, actually
	12:17pm Hughie Considine: ↳ efd @12:17 Huh! I know Daniel's sister was in the band so just (foolishly) assumed...
	12:18pm clarke: hughie ASSumed. as i usually do!
	12:19pm Triple G: ↳ efd @12:17 Confusion might have been because Lanois produced their third album ("This Is the Ice Age") "Echo Beach" was off of their debut album
	12:19pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "angel face" by "shock" This is definitely not the Captain & Tennille song...
	12:19pm Triple G: ↳ Triple G @12:19 a ha and also the familial connection
	12:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Triple G @12:19 Thanks, Triple G. I feel a bit better now :)
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:20 glad you are feeling better, btw!
	12:21pm Dan S: ↳ northguineahills @12:16 Yes, I was wondering about that. The same Echo Beach? How many Echo Beaches are there in the world?
	12:21pm Triple G: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:20 Hey, I only learned this info many many minutes ago haha This is why WFMU DJs are the best ... encyclopedic knowledge at a snap
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:20 Thanks bud. I just opened the window and in flew Enza ...
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: Got the word today a new Dehd album up for preorder! dehdforever.bandcamp.com...
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 that's just, like, your opinion, man.
	12:22pm Triple G: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 Thanks!
	12:22pm Crosby in KC: Hello, EFD and all!
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 so: it was the flu? yipe.
	12:23pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @12:19 it was a cover of a Glitter Band song (written with no actual GG involvement)
	12:24pm northguineahills: ↳ Dan S @12:21 (although they transmit from toronto...)
	12:24pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 thanks Handy!
	12:25pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" yeah!!!!
	12:25pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" Oh hell yeah!
	12:25pm common: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" flashbacks
	12:26pm clarke: and this ain't the jackson browne one.
	12:26pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:22 It was -- officially. Bad juju...
	12:26pm efd: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" haha, was wondering what kind of response this would get!
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:26 so.. six days of hell??
	12:27pm Deano Bravo: Haha, I actually had this Andy Taylor on a soundtrack to American Anthem
	12:27pm tim: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" I remember this song! I know absolutely noting about it - hahaha.
	12:27pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:26 It was the last gasp of that great guitar sound he had with Power Station.
	12:27pm UFOspecialist: Isn't that an eagle's tune?
	12:27pm common: ↳ Deano Bravo @12:27 believe i did also weird
	12:28pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:27 Pretty much -- still waiting to feel fully OK -- it takes its toll.
	12:28pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:27 I vaguely remember it as well.
	12:28pm Joe B: soundtrack did better than the film
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:28 so..... six days AND two weeks after! do not need that.
	12:29pm clarke: plus: no daniel lanois.
	12:30pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:28 I'm picturing this as the theme for an 80s 'nerd meets pretty lady spring break beach movie' - hahaha!
	12:30pm Hughie Considine: Seriously, this January has been brutal -- five Mondays!!
	12:30pm Dan S: The Sun? What's that?
	12:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:28 speaking of lanois, have you re-visited Le Noise, recently? i haven't and have been afraid to.
	12:30pm Joe B: at least 8 days perhaps more
	12:30pm tim: It's been that way in Central Illinois.
	12:31pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:30 I like to think of it as five Three Chord Montes. That's like fifteen chords!
	12:31pm Mister Dobalina: Gettin' kinda depressing around here...but on the bright side, 50 degrees and maybe some sun tomm.
	12:31pm listener james from westwood: Not only has it been gloomy and rainy, I've been stuck inside steering three huge projects to completion by this Friday, so I'm cosplaying Gollum at the moment.
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:30 and even in nola (however, the past few days have been stellar)
	12:31pm love2laf: Weather talk isn't boring, was lucky enough to have a whole day of sun on Monday. Just enough to bring out the big sighs when it left again.
	12:31pm Susan See: The sun was last out on Monday, January 22. Next appearance - Saturday.
	12:31pm McGroovey: I grew up by Lake Ontario, so no sun in the winter seems normal to me.
	12:31pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:30 I'm a fan. 4 or 5 keepers
	12:31pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:31 That is certainly the upside to five January Mondays.
	12:32pm tim: Steve Jones was in one of those MTV anti-drug PSAs around that time too!
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:31 will re-visit!
	12:33pm Handy Haversack: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:31 And James forgot the taste of bread ...
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:31 c'mon man, you never grew up!
	12:34pm maurer: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" definitely did not expect to learn so much about andy taylor on the funk evan davies show... ;)
	12:34pm Ciggy: Spring Training 👀
	12:35pm UFOspecialist: There will be blood...and there will be Donnie Iris
	12:35pm clarke: i'm finished!
	12:35pm listener james from westwood: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" I can't be the only person who hears the Muffins track and wants to crawl into it and live there happily for the next several centuries. Not unlike some sort of anti-Gollum, it turns out.
	12:36pm Hoboken Jack: It is indeed Bandcamp Friday. isitbandcampfriday.com
	12:36pm clarke: jaaaack
	12:36pm listener james from westwood: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 But he did pick up a wicked jones for sushi! And the odd bit of goblin sashimi.
	12:37pm Hughie Considine: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:35 The central guitar figure is incredibly seductive.
	12:37pm clarke: i love hunt sales drumming on Funtime, thus original better.
	12:38pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "funtime" by "peter murphy" This is better than the original. I had to play this song in a band. It's the most boring song in the world to play on bass. I was happy when we abandoned it.
	12:39pm prof.fuzz: heading to campus. will be jammin' from the fuZZZmobile and see y'all on the other side.
	12:39pm MAC: Who else listening at bard college rn fr
	12:39pm Hoboken Jack: Good day EFD, Joe, Clarke, Handy, McGroove, Tim, love2laf, NGH, Prof, Lesley, Medson Man, all!
	12:39pm Deano Bravo: Fun N. Lovely Esq.
	12:39pm brycepunk1: Good afternoon Evan, everyone
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:39 tim needs to warn you of some acceleration "adjustments"
	12:40pm tim: Unless all the members are from the Prude family, the Prude Boys is a crappy name. Music sounds really good though!
	12:40pm Adi From Sheffield: Good afternoon folks.
	12:40pm love2laf: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:39 Why hello Jack, always good to see you! And hello efd and all the other fellow Funksters.
	12:41pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:37 It was the drummer's idea to do Funtime, actually. Pfffff. Drummers.
	12:41pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:41 it is a fun drum part!
	12:42pm tim: ↳ Song: "talking to myself" by "prude boys" efd - what's the band name that's similar?
	12:42pm efd: ↳ tim @12:40 in fairness, if they've been around since 2014 then I think the pre-date the hate group that their name reminds me of
	12:42pm clarke: no funtime for bass players. ever!
	12:42pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ McGroovey @12:41 I just paid $50 to neuter a cat in honor of a drummer who broke my heart.
	12:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:39 Jack! How goes?
	12:43pm tim: ↳ efd @12:42 It just dawned on me as my post posted. Yup, I see why now.
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:42 You do more before 1 PM than most people do all day!
	12:44pm clarke: speaking of Post - nice pop tarts that EFD is a'slingin' this morning (in central time zone)
	12:45pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:44 In fairness, I paid for the neutering last night. But seriously folks, there's an animal shelter in NJ that's running a Valentine's Day special. Pay $50 to spay/neuter a feral cat, and they'll name the cat after your ex. Because Some Things Shouldn't Breed.
	12:45pm clarke: better than neutering the drummer, i suppose.
	12:46pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @12:45 Not that he wouldn't have deserved it.
	12:46pm clarke: yeah, i get that! ; ]
	12:46pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:42 I've also heard about shelters offering naming rights to cat litter boxes for Valentine's Day!
	12:47pm clarke: ha ha ha ha wow.
	12:47pm tim: ↳ efd @12:46 Good scoop. efd!
	12:48pm love2laf: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:45 Oh that is marvelous, a step up from the litter box naming rights that efd mentioned. Thanks for sharing.
	12:48pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:46 Excellent!
	12:48pm clarke: scoop is good food.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: ↳ tim @12:47 zing!
	12:48pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:47 GROAN throws rotten tomato at Tim
	12:49pm Paulo AD: OK, I'm in the cab again going to jfk.. Again. There is now way I can miss this flight right, it's 3:05 boarding
	12:49pm nycmusicnerd: Here's the link to Neuter Your Ex: form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io...
	12:50pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:48 Sometimes I just can't help myself. ;)
	12:50pm clarke: the zing king!
	12:50pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Paulo AD @12:49 Paulo, sorry that you're living in my most persistent anxiety dream. I wish you Godspeed!
	12:50pm efd: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" clear vinyl + tracks listed from 1 - 13 as if it were a CD instead of an LP... ridiculous!
	12:51pm clarke: yipers!!
	12:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @12:50 If there were a law, it would be against it.
	12:51pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:50 Matador should really know better.
	12:51pm love2laf: ↳ Paulo AD @12:49 Yay! Have a lovely trip back, hope it's all smooth sailing from here on out :)
	12:52pm tim: ↳ efd @12:50 Dang! It's difficult enough to figure out tracks numbered that way on black vinyl, let along clear vinyl.
	12:52pm clarke: anybody else catch Friends Of Eddie Coyle on TCM, last night? i have seen that film maybe 40 times! still great.
	12:54pm luka: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" now lathe of heaven i can get into
	12:55pm tim: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" Whoa! I wasn't expecting this TSOL turn of events. Very cool!
	12:55pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:52 an all-time fave. 'Numbah 4 ... Bobby Orr!
	12:55pm milknpie: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" this is good.
	12:56pm efd: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" live on Mona's show in October: wfmu.org...
	12:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ luka @12:54 Heck yeah. They were playing around the corner from us just the other week, but the show didn't start till 11. We couldn't manage it.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:55 THAT is the quote i wanted to tell EFD about!!
	12:56pm efd: ↳ clarke @12:56 the greatest player in the world, BAH NONE!
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:55 figured, as peter boyle is featured! ha ha.
	12:57pm tim: ↳ clarke @12:52 Oh yeah! That's a good one! I always forget the name of the movie until Joe quotes from it! hahaha!
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:56 MENTE!!!!
	12:58pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:56 Somebody needs to create a music club for working old farts. Plenty of seating, and all the weekday shows get out by 9pm.
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:57 seriously, one of the most depressing films ever made... SO good.
	12:58pm luka: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:56 that’s way past bedtime
	12:59pm listener james from westwood: The Lathe of Heaven movie that PBS aired back in the, what, 1970s or so, was SUCH a trip to watch as a kid. IIRC it's not out on any medium or stream. Wild that things aren't for whatever reason. Don't rightsholders like money?
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:59 what's it about?
	1:00pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" Without googling for pictures, I already know these guys wear studded leather gloves and hats
	1:00pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:58 Ha! We should book shows at Bill Knapps!
	1:00pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @1:00 Oh. And leather jackets, of course.
	1:00pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @1:00 lol.
	1:01pm clarke: i beg of you!!
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Now you done it, Bar Italia. You got a "for crying out loud"! If the FCC doesn't shut the station down, we'll all be lucky!
	1:01pm nycmusicnerd: BANDCAMP FRIDAY!!
	1:02pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @1:00 Never heard of it. Do tell.
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 i never realized until late in life what "for cryin' out loud" sounds like.
	1:02pm tim: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" The bandcamp shows black vinyl is available. Why would a label send a more expensive record as a promo anyway?
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 or: fuh christ's sake!
	1:03pm clarke: ↳ tim @1:02 quite possibly because NO one ordered the clear vinyl??
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "my golden years" by "the lemon twigs" indeedy!
	1:06pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:02 Maybe it was just a midwest chain. It's a restaurant that catered to the 'mature' crowd, shall we say. Dinner started at 3 pm. The menu featured primarily low sodium, easy to chew, and flavorless dishes. en.wikipedia.org...
	1:06pm Paulo AD: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:50 Thanks man. This is mostly my own fault though. Luckily now me and my wife end up on the same flight in atlanta
	1:06pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "my golden years" by "the lemon twigs" It is indeed Fallon--ran in our TV listings this morning.
	1:06pm Paulo AD: ↳ love2laf @12:51 Hopefully my love, I'll keep you all updated hahah
	1:07pm Paulo AD: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" I absolutely adore this band
	1:07pm Eugene R: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:59 PBS had problems with rights, since they used the original Beatles version of "Little Help from My Friends." Fan demand did get a DVD release in 2000, with a cover version of "Little Help".
	1:08pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:06 thanks!
	1:10pm Beast of Boonton: ↳ efd @1:08 Today, January 31– Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathryn Newton, and musical guest The Lemon Twigs appear.
	1:10pm clarke: tune in LATE!
	1:11pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "late bloomer" by "late cambrian" Late Cambrian rules hard
	1:11pm clarke: i'm a cop you idiot!
	1:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @1:02 Huh. Never thought of it that way!
	1:12pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @1:11 It's not a tumah!
	1:12pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:11 ikr?
	1:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Oh, excellent choice, efd! Typing sounds!
	1:12pm clarke: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" honorable!
	1:12pm slocker: Nice one
	1:12pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Always dug this one -- so groovy!
	1:13pm Erica from Cranford: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Love!
	1:13pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @1:12 who is your daddy - and what does he do?
	1:13pm unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I like when I can recognize a song just from the typing
	1:13pm efd: ↳ slocker @1:12 happy to get the slocker seal of approval!
	1:13pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I kid you not, this song popped in my head yesterday right after I heard "The One I Love" while I was running errands. Guess its time for a Document listen later.
	1:14pm efd: ↳ unpopularfred @1:13 haha!
	1:14pm Hughie Considine: And yet Document is where many of first-gen R.E.M.ers abandoned the cause...
	1:14pm Polyus: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I caught back to back shows on this tour, I think that's the first time I had ever done that.
	1:14pm Paulo AD: I've never heard this remote song
	1:14pm Paulo AD: Remote hahaha REM
	1:14pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @1:14 kinda troof. or a line of demarcation.
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ unpopularfred @1:13 Joe McG did a whole set of songs with typing in them, and he missed this one. And I missed pointing it out! wfmu.org... (Search for Pogues)
	1:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @1:14 I blame the typing.
	1:16pm clarke: whenever you hear me typing - OR NOT TYPING!!!
	1:16pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Hear that slightly wrong & it becomes Exhuming McCartney...
	1:17pm clarke: exuding mcccartney!
	1:17pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Gregosaurus @1:16 [Scouse accent] I'm not dead yet.
	1:18pm Mark of Sea Bright: REM on FMU is always a delightful disorientation for me
	1:20pm Philip: dig the build
	1:21pm Beast of Boonton: Rem - "Driver 8" - asks me , "what did he eat anyway?"
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Nice! Did a copy come to the station, efd? I saw a few folks had played tracks off it but wasn't sure if they'd brought it in on their own.
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" YEAH!!!!! Let's go!!!!
	1:24pm efd: haven't seen a copy here, this is a digital single I got somewhere
	1:24pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Yeah this rips dude
	1:24pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ HyperDose @1:24 Agree! And, hi HyperD!
	1:24pm efd: ↳ efd @1:24 *somewhere legit, I'll add - either digital new bin via Olivia or some radio promo service who's list I'm on
	1:25pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:23 Handy just did the best comments board stage dive I've ever seen!
	1:25pm efd: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Sprints live on Suzy Hotrod's show: wfmu.org...
	1:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:24 Apparently it charted kind of high in the UK/Ireland, at least per the e-mails I was getting from the band. The show last fall was fantastic. Absolutely blazing.
	1:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @1:25 Hold my glasses!
	1:26pm Paulo AD: Immigration suuuccckkkkkksssss
	1:26pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:26 You got it!
	1:27pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" No idea why it's in the WPRB new bin. 🙄
	1:28pm Paulo AD: Oh wild, I'm from Cardiff essentially
	1:28pm unpopularfred: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 thanks Handy, will check out

	2:18pm ledzeppelinsucks: The cumbersome formalities are doubled with dual languages and are a trammel on function. Need help? Get the infinite runaround and prompts for more fees.

	2:20pm Andres: ↳ Song: "the guest" by "mary timony" During a pop culture show on our public broadcaster that usually deals in Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, one of the guest panelists was explaining to the group who Mary Timony is. It was weird and funny but I was happy she got a play nonetheless.
	2:21pm ledzeppelinsucks: Have filthy, toxic jobs banned in the USA? CANADA jumps up and down "WE'LL DO IT, even if it kills us'. That's what Windsor, ON does, the dirty work for Detroit.
	2:22pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "the visit" by "campus christy" Am guessing there's not someone actually named "Peanut Butter Wolf" in the group either.
	2:22pm clarke: you got wolfed!!

	2:26pm efd: ↳ Hoboken Jack @2:23 thanks Jack!
	2:26pm ledzeppelinsucks: Government Canada IRCC web site is a digital diaper loaded with the classic Canadian Runaround. Don't answer a question or help, engage and say something useless brought by hundreds in a Crown Ministry.
	2:26pm wow wow: I’m late to respond to the Autoclave comment but didn’t they only ever play 6 gigs? I’m listening to the End on End podcast on them now. Sorely overlooked band. They sorta remind me of a female Buzzcocks

	2:27pm wow wow: I used to share a practice space with Mary in Boston

	2:29pm BLCKDGRD: Talking Heads turn down $80M to reunite www.stereogum.com...
	2:31pm Meesalikeu: oh those undeveloped areas. i would imagine they are developed by now and are pretty nice.
	2:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: Instead of fixing the simplest things, Government Canada puts plexi barriers, steel enforced walls and cameras in their Consulates.
	2:32pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "your worst song is your greatest hit" by "the red... Killing Joke's lead in to Love Like Blood at Webster Hall years ago: "Right! Let's get this out of the way!!"
	2:33pm wow wow: @clarke no over atbthe Berwick in Roxbury
	2:33pm ledzeppelinsucks: The woman at San Francisco Canada Consulate gave a rehearsed diatribe about 'abusive and disrespectful words and actions' after I showed here the printed IRCC web page idiocies, and then told me to go the IRCC web site.
	2:33pm clarke: ah, later. what was yer combo?
	2:34pm wow wow: My other space was at the sound museum with Hilken and Winston from Fuzzy

	2:36pm wow wow: Some band from Chicago later stole our name and kinda went further with it. I never heard them and never are ally knew how to feel about it.
	2:37pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:36 yeah, i was the drummer who stored drums in there, but hardly ever practiced.
	2:37pm wow wow: What time period? I think we were like 2003-5 so sorta brief in retrospect
	2:37pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:36 i lived just down (and across) the street from the allston space.
	2:38pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:37 well, my time there was in 94-98. but, i sublet my space to Come when i was on the road.
	2:39pm wow wow: Ah ok. I just had a guitar lesson w Brokaw a few weeks ago

	2:45pm ledzeppelinsucks: YEAH! Those guys are good.
	2:45pm wow wow: Oh wow. As a former founding member of Township and frequent listener of the show, that’s strange and great to hear haha
	2:46pm Handy Haversack: ↳ rf @2:44 rf, how was your show? Wish I could have been there!
	2:46pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "the ballad of pertinent information (turn me on)"... I love this band name as much as I like the tunes. I really like Elizabeth Nelson's music writing. Her tweets as @paranoiacs are one of the few reasons to still check Twitter.
	2:47pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): @efd It's so rude of my job to schedule teaching during your show. Super bummed I missed everything to this point.
	2:47pm wow wow: RIP Taylor Hawkins. I can’t stand the Foos but that was pretty sad.

	2:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "this is how it ends for me (spy balloon)" by "man... is this a cover - or just sounds like an early Church song i can't name, now?
	2:52pm efd: ↳ clarke @2:52 it's an original afaik
	2:53pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @2:52 "A tragic love song spanning themes of wanderlust, dogfights, regret and hope, told from the perspective of the 2023 spy balloon."

	12:04pm tim: ↳ Song: "doctor" by "the bliss band" I'm not trying to be a buzzkill here, but it seems like ababy grand would be really hard to take away from someone.
	12:06pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:03 nice! Hope you found some good stuff!
	12:06pm efd: ↳ Deano Bravo @12:04 cannot guarantee those vibes across the whole album
	12:06pm tim: ↳ Song: "funtime" by "peter murphy" Peter's going full on Bowie's Scary Monsters here. SOunds pretty good to me!
	12:06pm Joe B: greetings efd and everyone
	12:07pm prof.fuzz: howdy y'all!
	12:07pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "funtime" by "peter murphy" headbanger!
	12:07pm efd: ↳ Joe B @12:06 hi Joe!
	12:07pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:06 I found a few nuggets, including Joni Mitchell's Live At Newport album. And I made friends with a big black attention-starved dog. :)
	12:07pm clarke: dynOmite!! (i don't FEEL tardy)
	12:08pm clarke: FuZZZZZZZZZZZZ!! and other daviesians!!
	12:09pm LesleyK: Hi EFD and all!

	12:10pm northguineahills: hola yallsers!
	12:11pm bixa: hello !!
	12:11pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ northguineahills @12:10 Yo!
	12:11pm Chris Hiatt: Good afternoon, efd and all!
	12:11pm tim: Hey medson, Joe, Triple G, clark, Lesley, prof, ngh and bixa!
	12:13pm clarke: next FuZZ album cover: FuZZ And Other Delights (photo of Prof on a mound of whipped cream cheese)
	12:13pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" YEEEEESSSSSS
	12:14pm Mister Dobalina: What a great band name & catchy tune.
	12:14pm northguineahills: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:11 heyas nycmn!
	12:14pm Andres: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" ANTHEM!!!
	12:15pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" 80s new wave sax!
	12:15pm tim: ↳ clarke @12:13 Good idea but I think cheeZZZE whiZZZ would work better.
	12:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" Produced by Daniel Lanois, who would go on to bigger things.
	12:15pm Whattawino: A day at the beach! Thanks, EFD!
	12:16pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:15 Sax on the beach? Sounds good to me!
	12:16pm Whattawino: HA!
	12:16pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" paging derek and dj babs~ (from transmissions from echo beach on sheena's jungle stream thurs 8-10pm.....)
	12:17pm efd: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:15 Mike Howlett, actually
	12:17pm Hughie Considine: ↳ efd @12:17 Huh! I know Daniel's sister was in the band so just (foolishly) assumed...
	12:18pm clarke: hughie ASSumed. as i usually do!
	12:19pm Triple G: ↳ efd @12:17 Confusion might have been because Lanois produced their third album ("This Is the Ice Age") "Echo Beach" was off of their debut album
	12:19pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "angel face" by "shock" This is definitely not the Captain & Tennille song...
	12:19pm Triple G: ↳ Triple G @12:19 a ha and also the familial connection
	12:20pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Triple G @12:19 Thanks, Triple G. I feel a bit better now :)
	12:20pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:20 glad you are feeling better, btw!
	12:21pm Dan S: ↳ northguineahills @12:16 Yes, I was wondering about that. The same Echo Beach? How many Echo Beaches are there in the world?
	12:21pm Triple G: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:20 Hey, I only learned this info many many minutes ago haha This is why WFMU DJs are the best ... encyclopedic knowledge at a snap
	12:21pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:20 Thanks bud. I just opened the window and in flew Enza ...
	12:21pm Handy Haversack: Got the word today a new Dehd album up for preorder! dehdforever.bandcamp.com...
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 that's just, like, your opinion, man.
	12:22pm Triple G: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 Thanks!
	12:22pm Crosby in KC: Hello, EFD and all!
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:21 so: it was the flu? yipe.
	12:23pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @12:19 it was a cover of a Glitter Band song (written with no actual GG involvement)
	12:24pm northguineahills: ↳ Dan S @12:21 (although they transmit from toronto...)
	12:24pm Joe B: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:21 thanks Handy!
	12:25pm Joe B: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" yeah!!!!
	12:25pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" Oh hell yeah!
	12:25pm common: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" flashbacks
	12:26pm clarke: and this ain't the jackson browne one.
	12:26pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:22 It was -- officially. Bad juju...
	12:26pm efd: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" haha, was wondering what kind of response this would get!
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:26 so.. six days of hell??
	12:27pm Deano Bravo: Haha, I actually had this Andy Taylor on a soundtrack to American Anthem
	12:27pm tim: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" I remember this song! I know absolutely noting about it - hahaha.
	12:27pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:26 It was the last gasp of that great guitar sound he had with Power Station.
	12:27pm UFOspecialist: Isn't that an eagle's tune?
	12:27pm common: ↳ Deano Bravo @12:27 believe i did also weird
	12:28pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @12:27 Pretty much -- still waiting to feel fully OK -- it takes its toll.
	12:28pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:27 I vaguely remember it as well.
	12:28pm Joe B: soundtrack did better than the film
	12:28pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:28 so..... six days AND two weeks after! do not need that.
	12:29pm clarke: plus: no daniel lanois.
	12:30pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:28 I'm picturing this as the theme for an 80s 'nerd meets pretty lady spring break beach movie' - hahaha!
	12:30pm Hughie Considine: Seriously, this January has been brutal -- five Mondays!!
	12:30pm Dan S: The Sun? What's that?
	12:30pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:28 speaking of lanois, have you re-visited Le Noise, recently? i haven't and have been afraid to.
	12:30pm Joe B: at least 8 days perhaps more
	12:30pm tim: It's been that way in Central Illinois.
	12:31pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:30 I like to think of it as five Three Chord Montes. That's like fifteen chords!
	12:31pm Mister Dobalina: Gettin' kinda depressing around here...but on the bright side, 50 degrees and maybe some sun tomm.
	12:31pm listener james from westwood: Not only has it been gloomy and rainy, I've been stuck inside steering three huge projects to completion by this Friday, so I'm cosplaying Gollum at the moment.
	12:31pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:30 and even in nola (however, the past few days have been stellar)
	12:31pm love2laf: Weather talk isn't boring, was lucky enough to have a whole day of sun on Monday. Just enough to bring out the big sighs when it left again.
	12:31pm Susan See: The sun was last out on Monday, January 22. Next appearance - Saturday.
	12:31pm McGroovey: I grew up by Lake Ontario, so no sun in the winter seems normal to me.
	12:31pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:30 I'm a fan. 4 or 5 keepers
	12:31pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:31 That is certainly the upside to five January Mondays.
	12:32pm tim: Steve Jones was in one of those MTV anti-drug PSAs around that time too!
	12:32pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:31 will re-visit!
	12:33pm Handy Haversack: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:31 And James forgot the taste of bread ...
	12:33pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:31 c'mon man, you never grew up!
	12:34pm maurer: ↳ Song: "take it easy" by "andy taylor" definitely did not expect to learn so much about andy taylor on the funk evan davies show... ;)
	12:34pm Ciggy: Spring Training 👀
	12:35pm UFOspecialist: There will be blood...and there will be Donnie Iris
	12:35pm clarke: i'm finished!
	12:35pm listener james from westwood: ↳ Song: "echo beach" by "martha & the muffins" I can't be the only person who hears the Muffins track and wants to crawl into it and live there happily for the next several centuries. Not unlike some sort of anti-Gollum, it turns out.
	12:36pm Hoboken Jack: It is indeed Bandcamp Friday. isitbandcampfriday.com
	12:36pm clarke: jaaaack
	12:36pm listener james from westwood: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:33 But he did pick up a wicked jones for sushi! And the odd bit of goblin sashimi.
	12:37pm Hughie Considine: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:35 The central guitar figure is incredibly seductive.
	12:37pm clarke: i love hunt sales drumming on Funtime, thus original better.
	12:38pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "funtime" by "peter murphy" This is better than the original. I had to play this song in a band. It's the most boring song in the world to play on bass. I was happy when we abandoned it.
	12:39pm prof.fuzz: heading to campus. will be jammin' from the fuZZZmobile and see y'all on the other side.
	12:39pm MAC: Who else listening at bard college rn fr
	12:39pm Hoboken Jack: Good day EFD, Joe, Clarke, Handy, McGroove, Tim, love2laf, NGH, Prof, Lesley, Medson Man, all!
	12:39pm Deano Bravo: Fun N. Lovely Esq.
	12:39pm brycepunk1: Good afternoon Evan, everyone
	12:40pm clarke: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:39 tim needs to warn you of some acceleration "adjustments"
	12:40pm tim: Unless all the members are from the Prude family, the Prude Boys is a crappy name. Music sounds really good though!
	12:40pm Adi From Sheffield: Good afternoon folks.
	12:40pm love2laf: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:39 Why hello Jack, always good to see you! And hello efd and all the other fellow Funksters.
	12:41pm McGroovey: ↳ clarke @12:37 It was the drummer's idea to do Funtime, actually. Pfffff. Drummers.
	12:41pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:41 it is a fun drum part!
	12:42pm tim: ↳ Song: "talking to myself" by "prude boys" efd - what's the band name that's similar?
	12:42pm efd: ↳ tim @12:40 in fairness, if they've been around since 2014 then I think the pre-date the hate group that their name reminds me of
	12:42pm clarke: no funtime for bass players. ever!
	12:42pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ McGroovey @12:41 I just paid $50 to neuter a cat in honor of a drummer who broke my heart.
	12:43pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:39 Jack! How goes?
	12:43pm tim: ↳ efd @12:42 It just dawned on me as my post posted. Yup, I see why now.
	12:44pm Handy Haversack: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:42 You do more before 1 PM than most people do all day!
	12:44pm clarke: speaking of Post - nice pop tarts that EFD is a'slingin' this morning (in central time zone)
	12:45pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:44 In fairness, I paid for the neutering last night. But seriously folks, there's an animal shelter in NJ that's running a Valentine's Day special. Pay $50 to spay/neuter a feral cat, and they'll name the cat after your ex. Because Some Things Shouldn't Breed.
	12:45pm clarke: better than neutering the drummer, i suppose.
	12:46pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ clarke @12:45 Not that he wouldn't have deserved it.
	12:46pm clarke: yeah, i get that! ; ]
	12:46pm efd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:42 I've also heard about shelters offering naming rights to cat litter boxes for Valentine's Day!
	12:47pm clarke: ha ha ha ha wow.
	12:47pm tim: ↳ efd @12:46 Good scoop. efd!
	12:48pm love2laf: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:45 Oh that is marvelous, a step up from the litter box naming rights that efd mentioned. Thanks for sharing.
	12:48pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ efd @12:46 Excellent!
	12:48pm clarke: scoop is good food.
	12:48pm Hughie Considine: ↳ tim @12:47 zing!
	12:48pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @12:47 GROAN throws rotten tomato at Tim
	12:49pm Paulo AD: OK, I'm in the cab again going to jfk.. Again. There is now way I can miss this flight right, it's 3:05 boarding
	12:49pm nycmusicnerd: Here's the link to Neuter Your Ex: form-renderer-app.donorperfect.io...
	12:50pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:48 Sometimes I just can't help myself. ;)
	12:50pm clarke: the zing king!
	12:50pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Paulo AD @12:49 Paulo, sorry that you're living in my most persistent anxiety dream. I wish you Godspeed!
	12:50pm efd: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" clear vinyl + tracks listed from 1 - 13 as if it were a CD instead of an LP... ridiculous!
	12:51pm clarke: yipers!!
	12:51pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @12:50 If there were a law, it would be against it.
	12:51pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:50 Matador should really know better.
	12:51pm love2laf: ↳ Paulo AD @12:49 Yay! Have a lovely trip back, hope it's all smooth sailing from here on out :)
	12:52pm tim: ↳ efd @12:50 Dang! It's difficult enough to figure out tracks numbered that way on black vinyl, let along clear vinyl.
	12:52pm clarke: anybody else catch Friends Of Eddie Coyle on TCM, last night? i have seen that film maybe 40 times! still great.
	12:54pm luka: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" now lathe of heaven i can get into
	12:55pm tim: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" Whoa! I wasn't expecting this TSOL turn of events. Very cool!
	12:55pm Joe B: ↳ clarke @12:52 an all-time fave. 'Numbah 4 ... Bobby Orr!
	12:55pm milknpie: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" this is good.
	12:56pm efd: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" live on Mona's show in October: wfmu.org...
	12:56pm Handy Haversack: ↳ luka @12:54 Heck yeah. They were playing around the corner from us just the other week, but the show didn't start till 11. We couldn't manage it.
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:55 THAT is the quote i wanted to tell EFD about!!
	12:56pm efd: ↳ clarke @12:56 the greatest player in the world, BAH NONE!
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ Joe B @12:55 figured, as peter boyle is featured! ha ha.
	12:57pm tim: ↳ clarke @12:52 Oh yeah! That's a good one! I always forget the name of the movie until Joe quotes from it! hahaha!
	12:57pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:56 MENTE!!!!
	12:58pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:56 Somebody needs to create a music club for working old farts. Plenty of seating, and all the weekday shows get out by 9pm.
	12:58pm clarke: ↳ tim @12:57 seriously, one of the most depressing films ever made... SO good.
	12:58pm luka: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:56 that’s way past bedtime
	12:59pm listener james from westwood: The Lathe of Heaven movie that PBS aired back in the, what, 1970s or so, was SUCH a trip to watch as a kid. IIRC it's not out on any medium or stream. Wild that things aren't for whatever reason. Don't rightsholders like money?
	12:59pm clarke: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:59 what's it about?
	1:00pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "the spider" by "lathe of heaven" Without googling for pictures, I already know these guys wear studded leather gloves and hats
	1:00pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @12:58 Ha! We should book shows at Bill Knapps!
	1:00pm McGroovey: ↳ McGroovey @1:00 Oh. And leather jackets, of course.
	1:00pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @1:00 lol.
	1:01pm clarke: i beg of you!!
	1:01pm Handy Haversack: Now you done it, Bar Italia. You got a "for crying out loud"! If the FCC doesn't shut the station down, we'll all be lucky!
	1:01pm nycmusicnerd: BANDCAMP FRIDAY!!
	1:02pm nycmusicnerd: ↳ tim @1:00 Never heard of it. Do tell.
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 i never realized until late in life what "for cryin' out loud" sounds like.
	1:02pm tim: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" The bandcamp shows black vinyl is available. Why would a label send a more expensive record as a promo anyway?
	1:02pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:01 or: fuh christ's sake!
	1:03pm clarke: ↳ tim @1:02 quite possibly because NO one ordered the clear vinyl??
	1:05pm clarke: ↳ Song: "my golden years" by "the lemon twigs" indeedy!
	1:06pm tim: ↳ nycmusicnerd @1:02 Maybe it was just a midwest chain. It's a restaurant that catered to the 'mature' crowd, shall we say. Dinner started at 3 pm. The menu featured primarily low sodium, easy to chew, and flavorless dishes. en.wikipedia.org...
	1:06pm Paulo AD: ↳ Hughie Considine @12:50 Thanks man. This is mostly my own fault though. Luckily now me and my wife end up on the same flight in atlanta
	1:06pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "my golden years" by "the lemon twigs" It is indeed Fallon--ran in our TV listings this morning.
	1:06pm Paulo AD: ↳ love2laf @12:51 Hopefully my love, I'll keep you all updated hahah
	1:07pm Paulo AD: ↳ Song: "hi fiver" by "bar italia" I absolutely adore this band
	1:07pm Eugene R: ↳ listener james from westwood @12:59 PBS had problems with rights, since they used the original Beatles version of "Little Help from My Friends." Fan demand did get a DVD release in 2000, with a cover version of "Little Help".
	1:08pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:06 thanks!
	1:10pm Beast of Boonton: ↳ efd @1:08 Today, January 31– Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kathryn Newton, and musical guest The Lemon Twigs appear.
	1:10pm clarke: tune in LATE!
	1:11pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "late bloomer" by "late cambrian" Late Cambrian rules hard
	1:11pm clarke: i'm a cop you idiot!
	1:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @1:02 Huh. Never thought of it that way!
	1:12pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @1:11 It's not a tumah!
	1:12pm clarke: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:11 ikr?
	1:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Oh, excellent choice, efd! Typing sounds!
	1:12pm clarke: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" honorable!
	1:12pm slocker: Nice one
	1:12pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Always dug this one -- so groovy!
	1:13pm Erica from Cranford: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Love!
	1:13pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @1:12 who is your daddy - and what does he do?
	1:13pm unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I like when I can recognize a song just from the typing
	1:13pm efd: ↳ slocker @1:12 happy to get the slocker seal of approval!
	1:13pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I kid you not, this song popped in my head yesterday right after I heard "The One I Love" while I was running errands. Guess its time for a Document listen later.
	1:14pm efd: ↳ unpopularfred @1:13 haha!
	1:14pm Hughie Considine: And yet Document is where many of first-gen R.E.M.ers abandoned the cause...
	1:14pm Polyus: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" I caught back to back shows on this tour, I think that's the first time I had ever done that.
	1:14pm Paulo AD: I've never heard this remote song
	1:14pm Paulo AD: Remote hahaha REM
	1:14pm clarke: ↳ Hughie Considine @1:14 kinda troof. or a line of demarcation.
	1:15pm Handy Haversack: ↳ unpopularfred @1:13 Joe McG did a whole set of songs with typing in them, and he missed this one. And I missed pointing it out! wfmu.org... (Search for Pogues)
	1:15pm Hughie Considine: ↳ clarke @1:14 I blame the typing.
	1:16pm clarke: whenever you hear me typing - OR NOT TYPING!!!
	1:16pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "exhuming mccarthy" by "rem" Hear that slightly wrong & it becomes Exhuming McCartney...
	1:17pm clarke: exuding mcccartney!
	1:17pm Hughie Considine: ↳ Gregosaurus @1:16 [Scouse accent] I'm not dead yet.
	1:18pm Mark of Sea Bright: REM on FMU is always a delightful disorientation for me
	1:20pm Philip: dig the build
	1:21pm Beast of Boonton: Rem - "Driver 8" - asks me , "what did he eat anyway?"
	1:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Nice! Did a copy come to the station, efd? I saw a few folks had played tracks off it but wasn't sure if they'd brought it in on their own.
	1:23pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" YEAH!!!!! Let's go!!!!
	1:24pm efd: haven't seen a copy here, this is a digital single I got somewhere
	1:24pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Yeah this rips dude
	1:24pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ HyperDose @1:24 Agree! And, hi HyperD!
	1:24pm efd: ↳ efd @1:24 *somewhere legit, I'll add - either digital new bin via Olivia or some radio promo service who's list I'm on
	1:25pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:23 Handy just did the best comments board stage dive I've ever seen!
	1:25pm efd: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" Sprints live on Suzy Hotrod's show: wfmu.org...
	1:25pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @1:24 Apparently it charted kind of high in the UK/Ireland, at least per the e-mails I was getting from the band. The show last fall was fantastic. Absolutely blazing.
	1:26pm Handy Haversack: ↳ tim @1:25 Hold my glasses!
	1:26pm Paulo AD: Immigration suuuccckkkkkksssss
	1:26pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:26 You got it!
	1:27pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "shadow of a doubt" by "sprints" No idea why it's in the WPRB new bin. 🙄
	1:28pm Paulo AD: Oh wild, I'm from Cardiff essentially
	1:28pm unpopularfred: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:15 thanks Handy, will check out
	1:28pm HyperDose: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:24 Hello, gentleman Jack!
	1:29pm slocker: That's a very scientific method of record selection!
	1:31pm Figgsrock: Good one EFD--that typing comment almost made me choke on my iced tea!
	1:31pm clarke: wanna really confuse the youngsters: play One Of The Boys by Mott The Hoople!
	1:31pm Gregosaurus: EFD: Edumacating the Youth of Today™!
	1:32pm Carmichael: Heya Evan and typists. Here at halftime ...
	1:33pm maurer: ↳ maurer @12:34 haha! I was just trying to explain what a typewriter is to my kids...

I didn't remember this song. I just went and looked at the lyrics. I'd give it a listen on YouTube, but there's still good music happening on my radio.
	1:54pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @1:52 the All The Young Dudes album is freaking wonderful - the non-hit songs are ALL #1's. also dude: Brain Capers!

	2:20pm Andres: ↳ Song: "the guest" by "mary timony" During a pop culture show on our public broadcaster that usually deals in Taylor Swift and Beyoncé, one of the guest panelists was explaining to the group who Mary Timony is. It was weird and funny but I was happy she got a play nonetheless.
	2:21pm ledzeppelinsucks: Have filthy, toxic jobs banned in the USA? CANADA jumps up and down "WE'LL DO IT, even if it kills us'. That's what Windsor, ON does, the dirty work for Detroit.
	2:22pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Song: "the visit" by "campus christy" Am guessing there's not someone actually named "Peanut Butter Wolf" in the group either.
	2:22pm clarke: you got wolfed!!

	2:26pm ledzeppelinsucks: Government Canada IRCC web site is a digital diaper loaded with the classic Canadian Runaround. Don't answer a question or help, engage and say something useless brought by hundreds in a Crown Ministry.
	2:26pm wow wow: I’m late to respond to the Autoclave comment but didn’t they only ever play 6 gigs? I’m listening to the End on End podcast on them now. Sorely overlooked band. They sorta remind me of a female Buzzcocks

	2:32pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "your worst song is your greatest hit" by "the red... Killing Joke's lead in to Love Like Blood at Webster Hall years ago: "Right! Let's get this out of the way!!"

	2:33pm ledzeppelinsucks: The woman at San Francisco Canada Consulate gave a rehearsed diatribe about 'abusive and disrespectful words and actions' after I showed here the printed IRCC web page idiocies, and then told me to go the IRCC web site.
	2:33pm clarke: ah, later. what was yer combo?

	2:37pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:36 yeah, i was the drummer who stored drums in there, but hardly ever practiced.
	2:37pm wow wow: What time period? I think we were like 2003-5 so sorta brief in retrospect
	2:37pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:36 i lived just down (and across) the street from the allston space.
	2:38pm clarke: ↳ wow wow @2:37 well, my time there was in 94-98. but, i sublet my space to Come when i was on the road.

	2:46pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "the ballad of pertinent information (turn me on)"... I love this band name as much as I like the tunes. I really like Elizabeth Nelson's music writing. Her tweets as @paranoiacs are one of the few reasons to still check Twitter.
	2:47pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): @efd It's so rude of my job to schedule teaching during your show. Super bummed I missed everything to this point.

	2:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "this is how it ends for me (spy balloon)" by "man... is this a cover - or just sounds like an early Church song i can't name, now?

	2:53pm Handy Haversack: ↳ clarke @2:52 "A tragic love song spanning themes of wanderlust, dogfights, regret and hope, told from the perspective of the 2023 spy balloon."
