	12:02pm Hunterian: ↳ Song: "otteen elämään sain = born to be alive" by "pentt... What an exemplary жеи/EFD transition song!
	12:02pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:02 HA!
	12:02pm Gregosaurus: Umlauts require a black belt in key-fu.
	12:02pm clarke: sounds Eurovision?
	12:02pm efd: ↳ efd @12:02 although I see now that I played this in 2013 and entered it slightly differently!
	12:03pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @12:02 Did you have to go back over it to lowercase it all?
	12:03pm Kat in the chat: that was a fun opener
	12:04pm TerrDE: Born to be alive ? Not the most revelatory concept
	12:04pm slocker: a new romantic classic
	12:04pm Gregosaurus: ↳ TerrDE @12:04 That was heavy philosophy in the late 70s.
	12:05pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:02 It looks like that long name is going to mess up putting your comments on the playlist?
	12:05pm TerrDE: Be here now, if not arrive later
	12:06pm Feldy: ↳ Song: "tar" by "visage" Tar. What a find
	12:06pm common: efd! all!
	12:06pm efd: ↳ Handy Haversack @12:03 just the first letters of each word, which luckily had no diareses!
	12:07pm Triple G: ↳ efd @12:02 Haha, after sending I figured it was a (smart) copy/paste
	12:07pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "tar" by "visage" The movie of the same was not nearly as funky
	12:07pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "foregone conclusion" by "the planets" I conclude this track is great
	12:08pm Paulo AD: What's up my peeps
	12:11pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "foregone conclusion" by "the planets" Other bands from this label include the Coconut Dogs and The Korgis 🐶 Fret not, some other animals are represented (Beverly Byrd)
	12:11pm Triple G: ↳ Triple G @12:11 And lookie here, we're onto 😺
	12:12pm Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "cat walk" by "saga" Holy Overwrought Canadians, Batman!!
	12:14pm taryninstereo: Makes me want to see Les Mis
	12:14pm efd: ↳ Song: "cat walk" by "saga" somewhere my cousin Evan "Snake" Davies is stirring slightly in his extended slumber
	12:16pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @12:14 You need to find a reason to get your cousin back to the FMU airwaves.
	12:16pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:14 emerging from the cobwebs.
	12:18pm clarke: two-fer
	12:18pm HyperDose: Turning it up for the two-fer!
	12:19pm clarke: ain't it the troof?
	12:19pm Triple G: Going long with The Briefs 🤘🎸
	12:20pm listener 126464: Good afternoon, efd, all!
	12:20pm zachary: Afternoon Evan and listeners! I love that most people migrate from one message board to the next. Ha! Nothing like getting pumped with the same song twice.
	12:21pm McGroovey: ↳ Song: "cat walk" by "saga" I've seen Saga records, but never heard them before (as far as I know). This song sounds like... I dunno Simple Minds crossed with eighties Rush? I'd always assumed they were pop-hair-metal. Not my thing, either way.
	12:21pm clarke: ↳ Song: "cheapskate" by "the clash" my fave clash album!
	12:21pm Daniel from PEI.: Y’all are too much, cool cats and kitties.
	12:22pm clarke: ↳ McGroovey @12:21 Simple Minds had a song called Up On The Catwalk.
	12:22pm Jack McGuire: ↳ Song: "cheapskate" by "the clash" Dunno why people slag this album. The guitar sound is fire. And Sandy Pearlman.
	12:23pm Jack McGuire: Tommy Gun will knock yr toupe off.
	12:24pm clarke: ↳ Song: "everyone's agreed that everything will turn out f... RIP Joe
	12:24pm patrick321: Hey efd and all
	12:25pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "everyone's agreed that everything will turn out f... Good one
	12:25pm egould: A double dose of punky power pop segueing into glammy punk rock. Well played, efd.
	12:26pm efd: ↳ egould @12:25 this is not my first rodeo! :)
	12:26pm Christopher John: ↳ clarke @12:24 Had no idea - sad
	12:26pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "everyone's agreed that everything will turn out f... Hope so, Joe & Gerry
	12:27pm clarke: ↳ Christopher John @12:26 i'm just finding out meself

	12:32pm love2laf: Good to see you Jack!
	12:32pm Daniel from PEI.: Inglorious Browne and the Jackie Bastards.
	12:32pm Paulo AD: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Hj my main man
	12:32pm Handy Haversack: What up, Jack.
	12:35pm clarke: pardon my finish
	12:35pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 h-jack!
	12:36pm Tom in St. Paul: Wow, Evan – that was an amazing pronunciation of Finnish. I'm . . . disturbed.
	12:36pm zachary: Oh man! I'm a big shelf guy, Evan! What type did you buy?
	12:36pm clarke: the listener is the winner, here.
	12:37pm TerrDE: R. A. S. as bad as G. A. S.
	12:37pm zachary: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Hoboken Jack! How are you today? Nice spoken word piece on the last Six Degrees show.
	12:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "nostalgia" by "ultra lights" Chunklet is having a moment. My copy of Limbo District is on its way.
	12:40pm efd: ↳ zachary @12:36 I'm all Kallax all the time. The new shelf is a 2x2 that I put under the one window in the room where the records are.
	12:40pm efd: ↳ Tom in St. Paul @12:36 I find that hard to believe!
	12:40pm clarke: that's ikea right?
	12:41pm clarke: kallax is the way to geaux for LP's!
	12:41pm Carmichael: Heya RFD and friends. Sad to report the passing for icon John Mayall, 90 years young.
	12:42pm zachary: ↳ efd @12:40 Nice! I wasn't familiar with Kallax from Ikea (you're right clarke). I have a lot of the NSF wire shelving. Lots of tubs on my end. And book cases.
	12:42pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @12:41 wow, they're dropping.
	12:43pm lou in CHI: Hell yeah de rodillas
	12:44pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "leave the gun, take the tacos" by "chris lujan" mmm... tacos!
	12:44pm bizco bey: Leave the gun, take the pozole
	12:45pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:44 I love Tacos 🌮🌮🌮
	12:46pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @12:45 (\_/) ( 👁️) />🌮>
	12:46pm prof.fuzz: ↳ Song: "cheap" by "grazia" <3 this ep!
	12:46pm efd: ↳ zachary @12:42 the cardboard longboxes for 7" records fit nicely on top of the Kallaxen
	12:47pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:46 I approve of the bunny's message 👍🏻👍🏻
	12:47pm San Pedro Girl: Hello, efd and everyone!
	12:47pm clarke: ↳ efd @12:46 si!!
	12:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz @12:46 Pre-clicky-starred!
	12:48pm winston legthigh: evan and the funky bunch!
	12:48pm Carmichael: I have used rolling bread racks for my records for the last 30 years. Cheap from the restaurant place, and great for when you eventually have to move.
	12:48pm clarke: WIN!!!
	12:49pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @12:48 i never went that way, but always thought about that.
	12:49pm prof.fuzz: ↳ San Pedro Girl @12:47 heeeeeeey girl!
	12:50pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "leave the gun, take the tacos" by "chris lujan" This was really good, and great title
	12:50pm egould: I gotta' prepare for my conference call. Will check in later. Enjoy the music while I do stupid work stuff.
	12:50pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @12:48 also: wheels don't do much good if there is no elevator.
	12:51pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ San Pedro Girl @12:47 Hi San Pedro Girl!
	12:51pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Hello Jack!
	12:53pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ zachary @12:37 Thanks so much, Zachary!! I will actually be performing a live spoken word piece in Hoboken tonight and, if my phone cooperates, it'll be on Six Degrees tomorrow. How are you?
	12:53pm clarke: if it IS a Vox Phantom - indeed cool factor.
	12:54pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Carmichael @12:41 Oh?? He did have a long, great career. RIP John.
	12:55pm winston legthigh: hey clarke!
	12:56pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @12:55 howdy, sir!
	12:56pm Handy Haversack: winston!

	12:57pm Handy Haversack: Way to help efd out, Jack!
	12:58pm winston legthigh: handy!
	12:59pm efd: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:56 I said it first!!
	12:59pm listener 126464: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Hey, Jack, loved the Bob D. interview!
	1:01pm clarke: ↳ Song: "we love you" by "new math" dig the bridge!!
	1:02pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ listener 126464 @12:59 Oh thanks so much, 126464!! (For anyone reading this, it was Bob Delevante, not Dylan or Denver.)
	1:02pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "we love you" by "new math" inspired by aftermath, perhaps.
	1:03pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:02 we're waiting for the Alan Hale, Jr interview, still.
	1:04pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 That would be cool, I dig when I catch your spoken word pieces on alanSix° 's show
	1:11pm clarke: ↳ Song: "wish you well" by "peel dream magazine" fan!
	1:12pm Triple G: New Peel Dream Magazine* Good to know!
	1:13pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @1:04 Thanks Will! Great to see you on the boat!
	1:13pm Tom in St. Paul: ↳ efd @12:40 the band's name is "7 Wall-Crazy Brothers" for the record, pronounced: SAYT-suh-men SAYN-hool-looa VELL-yess-tah
	1:14pm clarke: and hit the post in the meantime.
	1:14pm wenzo: That never happens to me
	1:15pm wenzo: Maybe because I’m not a DJ?
	1:17pm HyperDose: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Jack! 💨🍕
	1:17pm efd: ↳ Tom in St. Paul @1:13 alright! I'll try to remember that if I play that record again in 8 or 9 years!
	1:18pm Franco Twinkie: Good morning Evan.
	1:18pm tim: Hey efd and everyone! Work didn't turn me loose so I missed Saga, dammit!
	1:18pm clarke: timothy.
	1:19pm Gregosaurus: ↳ tim @1:18 You needed to hurry & don't be late.
	1:19pm Tom in St. Paul: ↳ efd @1:17 haha – you're wall-crazy!
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "nine clean nails" by "dummy" But what dirtied up that tenth nail?
	1:20pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:11 trent reznor still live in your hood?
	1:20pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:20 nope. been years since he sold it. but it is just down the street.
	1:21pm ed: need to hear from mr Mayall please EV
	1:22pm Roberto: ↳ ed @1:21 Rik Mayall?
	1:22pm ed: JOHN
	1:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Roberto @1:22 The People's Poet is dead!
	1:24pm Jeffrey from west Florida: Did I hear something about a new book ? Rock history ?
	1:25pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:20 from nola to lala.
	1:25pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:24 Are you talking about Rudy Ray Moore?
	1:26pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:25 yeah, i think the studio has been sold, too.
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" yes!!!
	1:28pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" The intro of this reminded me of a Cocteau Twins song, which is a very good thing.
	1:29pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:28 she's totally into cocteaus
	1:31pm Cait Brennan: Tardy greetings, EFD and fellow Funksters!
	1:32pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." Monster!
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." good choice!
	1:32pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." Whoa! EFD, I never thought I'd hear this album on your show. is this the remixed version?
	1:33pm ∫ydniuß: dig me tremolo R.E.M.
	1:33pm clarke: i think because Keeley has a song called Monster?? hah.
	1:33pm TerrDE: I never heard REM do Stones before ! What album ?
	1:33pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." From the other room, this sounded like Crush with Eyeliner.
	1:33pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:32 nope, my OG CD from 1994!
	1:34pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @1:04 It was cool having the opportunity meet you as well!!! I think Chicken Pastina is one of my favorite of your tracks.
	1:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @12:41 I just read the news about John Mayall. I saw John with Muddy Waters and Willy Dixon at The Roxy in L.A. It was a very hard choice to make between that show and Rocky Erickson at The Whisky a Go-Go a block away the same night. I did see Rocky later, but still. All of them gone.
	1:34pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." I always had a thing for tremolo songs.
	1:35pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:33 I thought it was the OG, but figured I'd check. This was such a great opener song on that tour.
	1:35pm TerrDE: Monster ? I have that. Must not have stuck out at the time
	1:38pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:34 that WAS a tough choice. at least Mayall lived longer than most and perfrormed wel up until a few years ago!
	1:40pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @1:38 That was my reasoning years later, but at the time it killed me.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:40 well, if the roky was with doug and stu - that was a big miss.
	1:42pm winston legthigh: there's a fish theme going on.
	1:43pm zachary: ↳ efd @12:46 Excellent. I only have (gasp!) a small record collection. It's a lot of different paper items, audio gear, art supplies, and other odds and ends. Mostly all are in tubs. Always nice to hear others who love shelving. Feels great to get stuff up off the floor or on its on shelf instead of on top of other items.
	1:43pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:42 tbat's for your walk on the pier, later!
	1:43pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @1:34 Hey Jeff and Tim!
	1:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @1:40 It's funny, with all the people I did see, I still have my regrets. Regret is just part of life I guess
	1:43pm Deano Bravo: Dusty! We love you furry face❤️🔥❤️
	1:44pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:43 hey, i never got to see Roky with doug and stu, either!
	1:45pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" BTW, Keeley has three different Bandcamp pages (all hers, I double checked) which is kind of confusing.
	1:45pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:45 didn't know THAT
	1:46pm zachary: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 Hey Hoboken Jack! Awesome! I didn't know you always performed live. Not sure what phone you have, but I really like an app on my Android called Audio Recorder with a red record icon: play.google.com... Do you have other recordings of your performances? I am doing well. Been a wild day with work. Everyone is needing my assistance today for immediate tasks! Busy, busy. Going to get some lunch here in a moment.
	1:46pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:43 I would melt, going to fish camp instead!
	1:47pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:46 ain't it rainin there? it's raining everywhere, right?
	1:47pm Carmichael: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:40 For a while, I was on a quest to see as many old bluesmen as I could before they passed. I saw Mayall with Buddy Guy and some other local blues band opening. Probably late '80s. Saw him again about 15 years ago, and he seemed to be in great health.
	1:47pm winston legthigh: ↳ winston legthigh @1:46 (that's what the locals call casual seafood restaurants.)
	1:48pm Cait Brennan: Really digging this new Redd Kross album.
	1:48pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:47 that was a smart thing to do!
	1:48pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Cait Brennan @1:48 It's pretty rad
	1:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:47 yeah, contributing to the steam bath.
	1:48pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:47 ah. thought you had a second property!
	1:48pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:45 I think the result of self-releasing and then working with two different labels. I've seen that before with other acts, and yes it is confusing!
	1:49pm tim: Lesley K did an incredible Redd Kross fill in on Strong Style last night! wfmu.org... I hope everyone going to the shows have fun!
	1:49pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:48 there SHOULD be a way to link the accounts.
	1:50pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:49 I agree
	1:50pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ tim @1:49 I can attest to that Strong Style Redd Cross was well worth the listen 💥💥💥
	1:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @1:47 That was me as well. I did pretty good, I think. But those were different times for sure. The musical landscape was unrecognizable from this remove. But hey, so was I.
	1:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" hah, where's Frank In Queens!!
	1:52pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" Can't believe I've heard covers of this song back to back days in the year of 2024.
	1:53pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:52 Dr. and the Medics yesterday?
	1:53pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:48 the reds-braves game is racking up the runs, 9-4 reds in the 4th.
	1:53pm tim: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" Excellent! I have never ever run across the Norman Greenbaum 45 or LP. It can't be that rare. Nonetheless, I'd really like to get either.
	1:53pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:53 ah, dual-screenin' - good man!
	1:53pm BH: ↳ winston legthigh @1:53 always fun to have a long first game on the day of a doubleheader
	1:53pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:53 Yes, was listening to 1st Wave in the late afternoon and it came on.
	1:54pm Will thee SG OCNY: This is a rockin cover
	1:54pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:53 is that the sirius channel??
	1:54pm tim: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" It's be pretty cool to hear a ZZ Top syle shuffle cover of this.
	1:54pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ zachary @1:46 Oh, actually I record them at home in advance on GarageBand and Alan adds music behind them. I've been archiving them in the "link in bio" of my Instagram: jacksilbert_nj. Tonight I'll be reading a piece in a park before a band plays and I'm going to try to record on my phone, we'll see!
	1:55pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:54 Yup. It's among my rotation of stuff I listen to while working.
	1:55pm TerrDE: Me either Figgs. What made the song was Norms horrible/great tone and his he's been playing 6 months , but its still good, lead. Not that it was an amazing song
	1:55pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:55 i have sirius in the car, will check it
	1:58pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:55 Its a mixed bag--their artist separation is wayyyyy too tight. But I am a fan of the midday guy Sluggo, who I've listened to for years on local L.A. and NYC radio.
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:54 Archive links: wfmu.org...
	1:59pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:58 ah, well, if i am in the car midday, my pal manfred has a show on underground garage.. hence, i haven't heard sluggo.
	1:59pm Andres: ↳ tim @1:54 Call Rick Rubin to set it up. I’ll take a copy.
	2:00pm tim: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" Pretty sweet! Sounds like this could be on Sandanista.
	2:00pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" Re: note How serendipitous
	2:01pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:59 That makes sense!
	2:01pm clarke: ↳ tim @2:00 one of the few bands i prefer their LATER stuff.
	2:01pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" EFD, should we talk to Bill P about his work as their publicist? ha!
	2:02pm tim: ↳ Andres @1:59 "Yo, Rick baby! Get ZZ Top in the studio ASAP! What's that? Dusty Hill is dead? Well, get him out of the grave and get him in the studio!"
	2:02pm clarke: ↳ tim @2:02 "i'll meditate on it, Tim"
	2:04pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @2:01 ha! It's a fine line!
	2:04pm Andres: ↳ tim @2:02 He’s still got clout to pull it off, no?
	2:05pm clarke: casio!!
	2:05pm Carmichael: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:52 Buddy Guy is 87, don't know if he's still touring. And I need to see Hot Tuna, as they are all in their 80s.
	2:06pm tim: ↳ Andres @2:04 If not, we'll lean heavy on Dave Grohl.
	2:06pm efd: ↳ Andres @2:04 y'all realize you're talking about my former NYU dorm-mate...
	2:07pm Andres: ↳ efd @2:06 I did not! Start dishing!
	2:08pm tim: ↳ efd @2:06 efd's our "in", Andres!
	2:08pm tim: ↳ efd @2:06 Is it true that he had a club size PA in his dorm room?

	1:02pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ listener 126464 @12:59 Oh thanks so much, 126464!! (For anyone reading this, it was Bob Delevante, not Dylan or Denver.)
	1:02pm winston legthigh: ↳ Song: "we love you" by "new math" inspired by aftermath, perhaps.
	1:03pm clarke: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:02 we're waiting for the Alan Hale, Jr interview, still.
	1:04pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 That would be cool, I dig when I catch your spoken word pieces on alanSix° 's show
	1:11pm clarke: ↳ Song: "wish you well" by "peel dream magazine" fan!

	1:14pm clarke: and hit the post in the meantime.
	1:14pm wenzo: That never happens to me
	1:15pm wenzo: Maybe because I’m not a DJ?
	1:17pm HyperDose: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:31 Jack! 💨🍕
	1:17pm efd: ↳ Tom in St. Paul @1:13 alright! I'll try to remember that if I play that record again in 8 or 9 years!
	1:18pm Franco Twinkie: Good morning Evan.
	1:18pm tim: Hey efd and everyone! Work didn't turn me loose so I missed Saga, dammit!
	1:18pm clarke: timothy.
	1:19pm Gregosaurus: ↳ tim @1:18 You needed to hurry & don't be late.
	1:19pm Tom in St. Paul: ↳ efd @1:17 haha – you're wall-crazy!
	1:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "nine clean nails" by "dummy" But what dirtied up that tenth nail?
	1:20pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:11 trent reznor still live in your hood?
	1:20pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:20 nope. been years since he sold it. but it is just down the street.
	1:21pm ed: need to hear from mr Mayall please EV
	1:22pm Roberto: ↳ ed @1:21 Rik Mayall?
	1:22pm ed: JOHN
	1:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Roberto @1:22 The People's Poet is dead!
	1:24pm Jeffrey from west Florida: Did I hear something about a new book ? Rock history ?
	1:25pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:20 from nola to lala.
	1:25pm tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @1:24 Are you talking about Rudy Ray Moore?
	1:26pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:25 yeah, i think the studio has been sold, too.
	1:27pm clarke: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" yes!!!
	1:28pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" The intro of this reminded me of a Cocteau Twins song, which is a very good thing.
	1:29pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:28 she's totally into cocteaus
	1:31pm Cait Brennan: Tardy greetings, EFD and fellow Funksters!
	1:32pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." Monster!
	1:32pm clarke: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." good choice!
	1:32pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." Whoa! EFD, I never thought I'd hear this album on your show. is this the remixed version?
	1:33pm ∫ydniuß: dig me tremolo R.E.M.
	1:33pm clarke: i think because Keeley has a song called Monster?? hah.
	1:33pm TerrDE: I never heard REM do Stones before ! What album ?
	1:33pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." From the other room, this sounded like Crush with Eyeliner.
	1:33pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:32 nope, my OG CD from 1994!
	1:34pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Will thee SG OCNY @1:04 It was cool having the opportunity meet you as well!!! I think Chicken Pastina is one of my favorite of your tracks.
	1:34pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @12:41 I just read the news about John Mayall. I saw John with Muddy Waters and Willy Dixon at The Roxy in L.A. It was a very hard choice to make between that show and Rocky Erickson at The Whisky a Go-Go a block away the same night. I did see Rocky later, but still. All of them gone.
	1:34pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: ↳ Song: "i took your name" by "r.e.m." I always had a thing for tremolo songs.
	1:35pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:33 I thought it was the OG, but figured I'd check. This was such a great opener song on that tour.
	1:35pm TerrDE: Monster ? I have that. Must not have stuck out at the time
	1:38pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:34 that WAS a tough choice. at least Mayall lived longer than most and perfrormed wel up until a few years ago!
	1:40pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @1:38 That was my reasoning years later, but at the time it killed me.
	1:40pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:40 well, if the roky was with doug and stu - that was a big miss.
	1:42pm winston legthigh: there's a fish theme going on.
	1:43pm zachary: ↳ efd @12:46 Excellent. I only have (gasp!) a small record collection. It's a lot of different paper items, audio gear, art supplies, and other odds and ends. Mostly all are in tubs. Always nice to hear others who love shelving. Feels great to get stuff up off the floor or on its on shelf instead of on top of other items.
	1:43pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:42 tbat's for your walk on the pier, later!
	1:43pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ Jeff formerly from Rahway @1:34 Hey Jeff and Tim!
	1:43pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ clarke @1:40 It's funny, with all the people I did see, I still have my regrets. Regret is just part of life I guess
	1:43pm Deano Bravo: Dusty! We love you furry face❤️🔥❤️
	1:44pm clarke: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:43 hey, i never got to see Roky with doug and stu, either!
	1:45pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "days in a daze" by "keeley" BTW, Keeley has three different Bandcamp pages (all hers, I double checked) which is kind of confusing.
	1:45pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:45 didn't know THAT
	1:46pm zachary: ↳ Hoboken Jack @12:53 Hey Hoboken Jack! Awesome! I didn't know you always performed live. Not sure what phone you have, but I really like an app on my Android called Audio Recorder with a red record icon: play.google.com... Do you have other recordings of your performances? I am doing well. Been a wild day with work. Everyone is needing my assistance today for immediate tasks! Busy, busy. Going to get some lunch here in a moment.
	1:46pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:43 I would melt, going to fish camp instead!
	1:47pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:46 ain't it rainin there? it's raining everywhere, right?
	1:47pm Carmichael: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:40 For a while, I was on a quest to see as many old bluesmen as I could before they passed. I saw Mayall with Buddy Guy and some other local blues band opening. Probably late '80s. Saw him again about 15 years ago, and he seemed to be in great health.
	1:47pm winston legthigh: ↳ winston legthigh @1:46 (that's what the locals call casual seafood restaurants.)
	1:48pm Cait Brennan: Really digging this new Redd Kross album.
	1:48pm clarke: ↳ Carmichael @1:47 that was a smart thing to do!
	1:48pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ Cait Brennan @1:48 It's pretty rad
	1:48pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:47 yeah, contributing to the steam bath.
	1:48pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:47 ah. thought you had a second property!
	1:48pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:45 I think the result of self-releasing and then working with two different labels. I've seen that before with other acts, and yes it is confusing!
	1:49pm tim: Lesley K did an incredible Redd Kross fill in on Strong Style last night! wfmu.org... I hope everyone going to the shows have fun!
	1:49pm clarke: ↳ efd @1:48 there SHOULD be a way to link the accounts.
	1:50pm efd: ↳ clarke @1:49 I agree
	1:50pm Will thee SG OCNY: ↳ tim @1:49 I can attest to that Strong Style Redd Cross was well worth the listen 💥💥💥
	1:52pm Franco Twinkie: ↳ Carmichael @1:47 That was me as well. I did pretty good, I think. But those were different times for sure. The musical landscape was unrecognizable from this remove. But hey, so was I.
	1:52pm clarke: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" hah, where's Frank In Queens!!
	1:52pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" Can't believe I've heard covers of this song back to back days in the year of 2024.
	1:53pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @1:52 Dr. and the Medics yesterday?
	1:53pm winston legthigh: ↳ clarke @1:48 the reds-braves game is racking up the runs, 9-4 reds in the 4th.
	1:53pm tim: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" Excellent! I have never ever run across the Norman Greenbaum 45 or LP. It can't be that rare. Nonetheless, I'd really like to get either.
	1:53pm clarke: ↳ winston legthigh @1:53 ah, dual-screenin' - good man!
	1:53pm BH: ↳ winston legthigh @1:53 always fun to have a long first game on the day of a doubleheader
	1:53pm Figgsrock: ↳ efd @1:53 Yes, was listening to 1st Wave in the late afternoon and it came on.
	1:54pm Will thee SG OCNY: This is a rockin cover
	1:54pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:53 is that the sirius channel??
	1:54pm tim: ↳ Song: "spirit in the sky" by "the cheaters" It's be pretty cool to hear a ZZ Top syle shuffle cover of this.
	1:54pm Hoboken Jack: ↳ zachary @1:46 Oh, actually I record them at home in advance on GarageBand and Alan adds music behind them. I've been archiving them in the "link in bio" of my Instagram: jacksilbert_nj. Tonight I'll be reading a piece in a park before a band plays and I'm going to try to record on my phone, we'll see!
	1:55pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:54 Yup. It's among my rotation of stuff I listen to while working.
	1:55pm TerrDE: Me either Figgs. What made the song was Norms horrible/great tone and his he's been playing 6 months , but its still good, lead. Not that it was an amazing song
	1:55pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:55 i have sirius in the car, will check it
	1:58pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:55 Its a mixed bag--their artist separation is wayyyyy too tight. But I am a fan of the midday guy Sluggo, who I've listened to for years on local L.A. and NYC radio.
	1:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Hoboken Jack @1:54 Archive links: wfmu.org...
	1:59pm clarke: ↳ Figgsrock @1:58 ah, well, if i am in the car midday, my pal manfred has a show on underground garage.. hence, i haven't heard sluggo.
	1:59pm Andres: ↳ tim @1:54 Call Rick Rubin to set it up. I’ll take a copy.
	2:00pm tim: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" Pretty sweet! Sounds like this could be on Sandanista.
	2:00pm Triple G: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" Re: note How serendipitous
	2:01pm Figgsrock: ↳ clarke @1:59 That makes sense!
	2:01pm clarke: ↳ tim @2:00 one of the few bands i prefer their LATER stuff.
	2:01pm Figgsrock: ↳ Song: "love insurrection" by "primal scream" EFD, should we talk to Bill P about his work as their publicist? ha!
	2:02pm tim: ↳ Andres @1:59 "Yo, Rick baby! Get ZZ Top in the studio ASAP! What's that? Dusty Hill is dead? Well, get him out of the grave and get him in the studio!"
	2:02pm clarke: ↳ tim @2:02 "i'll meditate on it, Tim"
	2:04pm efd: ↳ Figgsrock @2:01 ha! It's a fine line!
	2:04pm Andres: ↳ tim @2:02 He’s still got clout to pull it off, no?
	2:05pm clarke: casio!!
	2:05pm Carmichael: ↳ Franco Twinkie @1:52 Buddy Guy is 87, don't know if he's still touring. And I need to see Hot Tuna, as they are all in their 80s.
	2:06pm tim: ↳ Andres @2:04 If not, we'll lean heavy on Dave Grohl.
	2:06pm efd: ↳ Andres @2:04 y'all realize you're talking about my former NYU dorm-mate...
	2:07pm Andres: ↳ efd @2:06 I did not! Start dishing!
	2:08pm tim: ↳ efd @2:06 efd's our "in", Andres!
	2:08pm tim: ↳ efd @2:06 Is it true that he had a club size PA in his dorm room?
	2:09pm Handy Haversack: ↳ efd @2:06 Dave Grohl? Buddy Guy?!
	2:09pm love2laf: ↳ Song: "the medium (radio edit)" by "crack cloud" Pre-clicky starred from Mona's show <3
	2:10pm mrdonutsu: Cancon? I'll have Nunavut!
	2:10pm clarke: vancouver island is the western point of Canada. don't thnk it is inhabited, tho.
	2:11pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ clarke @2:10 It is inhabited.
	2:12pm clarke: ↳ San Pedro Girl @2:11 ah. didn't know.
	2:12pm clarke: ↳ San Pedro Girl @2:11 with bands, i mean.
	2:13pm Andres: ↳ mrdonutsu @2:10 Play some Tanya Tagaq and we got it covered.
	2:13pm tim: ↳ clarke @2:10 My cousin lives in Victoria which is on Vancouver Island.
	2:13pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ Carmichael @2:05 Hot Tuna competed their “final” tour recently.
	2:14pm clarke: i know what happens when I make ASSumptions.
	2:14pm Figgsrock: Oh yeah, KK!
	2:15pm clarke: KK!! airhorn!!
	2:15pm Andres: ↳ clarke @2:12 3 Inches of Blood, for one, are from Victoria.
	2:16pm mrdonutsu: ↳ Andres @2:15 No Means No & Dayglo Abortions too
	2:16pm clarke: ↳ Andres @2:15 yipe!
	2:18pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Andres @2:15 Marty Party Classic!
	2:19pm Hoboken Jack: Looks like there are still tix for both Redd Kross shows.
	2:19pm San Pedro Girl: ↳ clarke @2:12 I think you’re right about that.
	2:20pm efd: ↳ Hoboken Jack @2:19 thanks Jack! (and what's wrong with people?! Those shows should have sold out weeks ago!)
	2:20pm clarke: what IS wrong with People?!?
	2:21pm Andres: ↳ Handy Haversack @2:18 Future live remote possibility.
	2:22pm clarke: i love that GPC so much i could kiss her
	2:24pm Carmichael: ↳ San Pedro Girl @2:13 Damn, a day late and a Darryl short ...
	2:26pm clarke: ↳ Song: "fruit" by "brainbows" dig!
	2:27pm clarke: dug.
	2:29pm Ochre Ogre: Hi Evan!
	2:31pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ Song: "dreams" by "petticoats" Wild this just put in a zone of listening to FMU 3 decades ago. Not stoned, at the moment.
	2:32pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ clarke @2:20 "People, they're the worst." Seinfeld

	2:41pm Various Julius: ↳ clarke @2:40 It's a pretty quick read - not a long book
	2:42pm clarke: ↳ Various Julius @2:41 will have to check with the library! (can't afford books these days)
	2:42pm Ochre Ogre: ↳ San Pedro Girl @2:13 Hi S P Girl! Wow they're still goin, Hot tuna always made me think of a tuna melt. Fish with cheese is taboo for me. LOVE the acoustic guitar,"The Water Song" by them.
