Listener comments!
	12:06pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Ascension Millenium" by "Corey Feldman" Hoo boy
	12:08pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "On The Road Again (7-25-87)" by "Nutty Bananas" I found this at a thrift store the other week! My first time finding a karaoke booth cassette in public!
	12:08pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "On The Road Again (7-25-87)" by "Nutty Bananas" I gasped and jumped back when I saw this tape. I never thought I'd find one.
	12:09pm Mr Fab: The Nutty Bananas really needed to make a whole album.
	12:10pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:09 a reunion better happen!
	👻 12:10pm WR: Hi Miss Mei and folks.
	👻 12:12pm WR: ↳ Miss Mei @12:08 A Nashville tape in the NYC tri-state area. A story of a journey too.
	12:13pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @12:12 In the intro, several of the people say they are from New York. my guess is one of those people donated the tape to this thrift store.
	12:16pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Grande Days (Autoharp version)" by "Rob Tyner" Oh yeah, i remember this video. Apart from the weirdness of a member of the MC5 strumming an autoharp like a folkie, he was sporting a horrible look. Even rock gods have their off days...
	12:17pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:16 An electric autoharp, no less!
	12:17pm Kat in the chat: Until I looked at the playlist, I thought he was singing about his "Randy Days"
	12:19pm Miss Mei: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:17 It's about Randy Travis
	12:19pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "I Killed My Monkey" by "Daniel Johnston" Now we have several previously unreleased tunes from the ALL NEW Daniel Johnston album!
	12:19pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "I Killed My Monkey" by "Daniel Johnston" 26 tracks of lo-fi goodness!
	12:20pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @12:19 he sounds so little, like a 12 year old.
	12:21pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Grande Days (Autoharp version)" by "Rob Tyner" Autoharp is one of those instruments I always associate with my 1st grade teacher who used to play songs for us. Now I'm picturing Ms. Albers starting off with KICK OUT THE JAMS, MOTHERFUCKERS!
	12:22pm Mr Fab: I'll always love the MC5, but, OUCH: www.reddit.com...
	12:22pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:20 These recordings were done between 1980 and 1983 i believe.
	12:23pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:22 This was shortly before Rob's passing. Sad, he was young
	12:26pm Rich in Washington: The entire lineup of MC5 are all gone. The last member - drummer Dennis Thompson, died in May of this year.
	👻 12:27pm WR: ↳ Song: "Three Tears For The Grotesque Clown" by "Daniel J... These "lost tapes" are a bit rough sonically but still gems.
	12:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:26 So of course THIS year, they finally get inducted into the Rock Hall. Great timing, music biz.
	12:28pm Rich in Washington: I inherited a small box of CDRs that Daniel bestowed upon the station when he visited once, after an outgoing staff member was let go and they dumped the CDRs into my mailbox. I still need to go through them to see if there's anything rare (which I doubt) in the collection.
	12:29pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:28 definitely go thru them!
	12:30pm Rich in Washington: It's just a bunch of burnt CDRs with album titles scrawled on them. There was a volunteer effort to burn them to CDs with cases/art, etc, but no one wanted to do it and the outgoing staffer just gave up.
	12:32pm Rich in Washington: But I think it's just his extant discography while he was still alive. There could be something relatively rare in it.
	12:33pm Rich in Washington: I also had another outsider music person send me their complete discography on a DVDR with no ID3 tagging, song titles, not even a printed list of what it was. Thanks?
	12:34pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:33 Wow! Wonder what that could be!
	12:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:33 ha! Was that The Everyday Film?
	12:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @12:35 No! He eventually stopped sending me anything. I think he didn't like me calling him the Ted Kaczinsky of outsider musicians.
	12:37pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:36 I really wanna know what artist this was! Was the music interesting?
	12:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @12:34 It was John Trubee. He also sent me a bunch of press clippings - like actually clippings from newspapers about him.
	12:38pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:37 Never heard of him. Guess I'll have to go seek out his stuff!
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @12:35 Ha ha! I completely forgot about Everyday Film. Brilliant marketing strategy- right out of the Jandek playbook.
	12:40pm Miss Mei: Oh, He's responsible for Blind Man's Penis! I know of that one but never actually listened to it.
	12:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @12:38 You gotta check out John Trubee's song-poem masterwork, "Blind Man's Penis."
	12:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @12:38 John Trubee? He's a legend in the outsider scene. His claim to fame was one brilliant prank and he parlayed that into a music career of sorts.
	12:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:40 Will have a listen after the show.
	12:42pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Superman 1" by "Cepillín" A bunch of Cepillin's albums have been remastered and re-released, some for the first time digitally! We're about to hear a couple of those new remasters!
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: It's all detailed in the wonderful documentary Off The Charts. It's not just about him but about Song Poems in general. I think that film would be right up your alley, Miss Mei!
	12:42pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:42 I've been meaning to watch it
	12:43pm Mr Fab: i saw John Trubee opening for a Jello Biafra spoken-work show. It largely consisted of Trubee jumping up and down ranting about "assholes." Good times.
	👻 12:43pm Herb: Hi-ya Tots!
	12:43pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:43 Sounds fantastic.
	12:45pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "El Piojo Y La Pulga" by "Cepillín" This song is about a louse and a flea getting married.
	12:46pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:40 SPIN magazine did an article about Trubee and "Blind Man's Penis" way back in 1986, that's how I first heard of it. Finally heard it decades later, on WFMU of course.
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:46 I think I remember that article!
	12:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Pan Con Mantequilla" by "Cepillín" a cover of the Newbeats' hit "Bread and Butter."
	12:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Pan Con Mantequilla" by "Cepillín" This music is wonderfully horrific!
	12:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:48 And here's Cepillin doing Grease! Later on we will hear him cover Prince!
	12:50pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Noches De Verano" by "Cepillín" Ach, mein gott!
	12:57pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Una Sonrisa Con Cepillín" by "Cepillín" This was the theme song to one of Cepillin's many TV shows.
	1:26pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Hain't Nobody" by "Russ Thompson" Whoah, can I request "My Wig Changing Mini Skirted Mama "?
	1:27pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:26 The Thompson records are some fun, rough ozark jams! Will slip it into the playlist.
	1:28pm Miss Mei: He released several singles with his wife on a label. Date unknown but I'd have to guess late 60s /early 70s
	1:30pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:26 Scratch that, Hain't Nobody / Mini Skirted Mama came out in 1970
	1:32pm Hunterian: ↳ Song: "My Wig Changing Mini Skirted Mama" by "Russ Thomp... Had a real driveway moment with this song
	1:33pm Mr Fab: Right on, thanks!
	1:34pm Miss Mei: ↳ Hunterian @1:32 He has another single that sounds very similar to this.
	👻 1:36pm WR: ↳ Song: "Dear Mr. President" by "Shorty & Ginger" Any clue about when this was made?
	1:37pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @1:36 No idea. Probably not long after JFK's death tho
	1:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Elvis" by "Sylvia" Good god, why have I not plated this yet? This has been sitting on my computer for months. It's brilliant.
	1:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Elvis" by "Sylvia" This voice is REALLY hard to listen to
	1:41pm Miss Mei: ↳ Kat in the chat @1:40 I forgot what this sounded like. I found it on an eBay auction. Some sellers include rips of what they're selling!
	👻 1:41pm WR: ↳ Song: "Dear Mr. President" by "Shorty & Ginger" The label in a rateyourmusic listing has 2006 on it. Maybe / maybe not the release date. rateyourmusic.com...
	1:44pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Tonight (Live 1991)" by "Todd Wathen" Special thanks to Todd's friend PJ for uncovering the video this was sourced from!
	1:48pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "U R Free" by "Corey Feldman" Take a listen to this BAFFLING tribute to the late Corey Haim.
	1:48pm Rich in Washington: Ha ha! Was just downstairs at work talking to someone who saw Corey opening for Limp Bizkit!
	1:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @1:48 The Lo-Serve-Ill tour! What a wild time that must've been, ive seen video.
	1:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "U R Free" by "Corey Feldman" I hope Corey comes back to NY, I simply HAVE to see him live.
	1:51pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Miss Mei @1:48 Baffling is a good word for it
	1:57pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Turtles Stole My Camera" by "MC Speshal K" Catchy chorus. I especially like the Elmer Fudd accents.
	1:58pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:57 He's got Cornwall Swagger.
	2:00pm Kat in the chat: Poor Wesley :(
	👻 2:00pm Herbie: ↳ Song: "My Fiasco Band Broke Up" by "Wesley Willis" Rare Wes!
	2:01pm Miss Mei: ↳ Herbie @2:00 Discovered this year by Ron English! Recorded some time between 1995-1997 I believe.
	👻 2:02pm Herbie: ↳ Miss Mei @2:01 Cool! Great find
	2:04pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Touch Of The Pharohs" by "Luie Luie" I wasn't ready for this track. What a wild ride!
	2:05pm Mr Fab: LA lounge legend. I found an autographed copy of this album at a garage sale.
	2:05pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:05 Amazing!
	2:07pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Touch Of The Pharohs" by "Luie Luie" What a powerhouse!
	2:07pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:07 he played all the instruments!
	2:09pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:07 I remember him explaining that on Touchy. His spoken intros are so great.
	2:09pm Rich in Washington: The Wild Man doc Derailroaded is really good.
	👻 2:09pm WR: ↳ Song: "Vietcong Women" by "Wild Man Fischer" wonder who were Fischer's collaborators were on this.
	👻 2:10pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:09 Didn't know about the doc. Will look for it.
	2:10pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:09 I found out just now! It turns out he recorded that with a band called "The Girls" in 1979. The album is called Reunion.
	2:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @2:10 It's on Tubi! Well worth your time.
	2:10pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:10 It's very sad, but a great watch.
	2:11pm Rich in Washington: I have the Smegma with Wild Man Fischer album. It's a hoot and a half!
	2:11pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:11 That's a fun one! They did other songs together too that have come out on compilations
	2:14pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:10 No way, that was The Girls?! They were a great Pere Ubu-related New Wave band. I think Krys O knew one of the members.
	2:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "All The People With The Money" by "Unknown" Oh wow! This is weapons grade plutonium!
	2:17pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:15 Its so very unhinged.
	2:19pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Every Day I Have the Blues" by "Woodstock Al" he's not off-key, he's No Wave!
	2:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Short Fat Sky" by "Donny Mastler" yet another "Big Bad John" parody. Spacebrother Greg played some on one of his recent shows, saying he could probably do an entire hour of 'em.
	2:30pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Pretty bizarre!
	👻 2:31pm WR: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Seems there are plenty.
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Short Fat Sky" by "Donny Mastler" There's a copy of this on Discogs going for $630.50
	2:33pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:32 Yikes.
	2:36pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Puteiro" by "Palhaço Gozo" He is singing about a brothel.
	👻 2:37pm Herbie: ↳ Song: "Teach Me Tiger (Live 1983)" by "April Stevens & r... Where's Nino? I always thought they were a couple. Didn't realize they were siblings.
	2:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "I Teach The World To Sing" by "Sampson" Oh man! What's going on here?
	2:39pm Miss Mei: ↳ Herbie @2:37 I think he was the emcee
	2:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:38 A weird MP3 dot com guy. Claimed he was a music teacher, it was just an elaborate character.
	2:45pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "After School Snack Attack" by "Danny K.A.E." That's one heck of a snack attack.
	👻 2:49pm WR: ↳ Song: "To You I'm Not Home Anymore" by "Pismo Beach Elem... Teacher singing with elementary school musicians?
	2:51pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:49 Could be!
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Trainboy54 Theme" by "Trainboy54" This and William Tapley make me think there should be a ten day waiting period before taking possession a keyboard.
	2:54pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:53 Stand back in a basement and watch him in action!
	2:55pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Terry's Got A Gun" by "Macho Alex" Sequel to "Terry And His Bomb"!

	2:58pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "We Wanted Change" by "Corey Feldman" play it again, sam ! that jazz certainly does swing!
	2:58pm Rich in Washington: Fantastic show today, Miss Mei! Thanks so much!
	2:59pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:58 Of course! Next week will either be more Xmas stuff or another weird variety show. We'll see how i feel!

	12:21pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Grande Days (Autoharp version)" by "Rob Tyner" Autoharp is one of those instruments I always associate with my 1st grade teacher who used to play songs for us. Now I'm picturing Ms. Albers starting off with KICK OUT THE JAMS, MOTHERFUCKERS!
	12:22pm Mr Fab: I'll always love the MC5, but, OUCH: www.reddit.com...
	12:22pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:20 These recordings were done between 1980 and 1983 i believe.
	12:23pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:22 This was shortly before Rob's passing. Sad, he was young
	12:26pm Rich in Washington: The entire lineup of MC5 are all gone. The last member - drummer Dennis Thompson, died in May of this year.
	👻 12:27pm WR: ↳ Song: "Three Tears For The Grotesque Clown" by "Daniel J... These "lost tapes" are a bit rough sonically but still gems.
	12:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:26 So of course THIS year, they finally get inducted into the Rock Hall. Great timing, music biz.
	12:28pm Rich in Washington: I inherited a small box of CDRs that Daniel bestowed upon the station when he visited once, after an outgoing staff member was let go and they dumped the CDRs into my mailbox. I still need to go through them to see if there's anything rare (which I doubt) in the collection.
	12:29pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:28 definitely go thru them!
	12:30pm Rich in Washington: It's just a bunch of burnt CDRs with album titles scrawled on them. There was a volunteer effort to burn them to CDs with cases/art, etc, but no one wanted to do it and the outgoing staffer just gave up.
	12:32pm Rich in Washington: But I think it's just his extant discography while he was still alive. There could be something relatively rare in it.
	12:33pm Rich in Washington: I also had another outsider music person send me their complete discography on a DVDR with no ID3 tagging, song titles, not even a printed list of what it was. Thanks?
	12:34pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:33 Wow! Wonder what that could be!
	12:35pm Mr Fab: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:33 ha! Was that The Everyday Film?
	12:36pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @12:35 No! He eventually stopped sending me anything. I think he didn't like me calling him the Ted Kaczinsky of outsider musicians.
	12:37pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:36 I really wanna know what artist this was! Was the music interesting?
	12:37pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @12:34 It was John Trubee. He also sent me a bunch of press clippings - like actually clippings from newspapers about him.
	12:38pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:37 Never heard of him. Guess I'll have to go seek out his stuff!
	12:39pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Mr Fab @12:35 Ha ha! I completely forgot about Everyday Film. Brilliant marketing strategy- right out of the Jandek playbook.
	12:40pm Miss Mei: Oh, He's responsible for Blind Man's Penis! I know of that one but never actually listened to it.
	12:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @12:38 You gotta check out John Trubee's song-poem masterwork, "Blind Man's Penis."
	12:40pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Miss Mei @12:38 John Trubee? He's a legend in the outsider scene. His claim to fame was one brilliant prank and he parlayed that into a music career of sorts.
	12:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:40 Will have a listen after the show.
	12:42pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Superman 1" by "Cepillín" A bunch of Cepillin's albums have been remastered and re-released, some for the first time digitally! We're about to hear a couple of those new remasters!
	12:42pm Rich in Washington: It's all detailed in the wonderful documentary Off The Charts. It's not just about him but about Song Poems in general. I think that film would be right up your alley, Miss Mei!
	12:42pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:42 I've been meaning to watch it
	12:43pm Mr Fab: i saw John Trubee opening for a Jello Biafra spoken-work show. It largely consisted of Trubee jumping up and down ranting about "assholes." Good times.
	👻 12:43pm Herb: Hi-ya Tots!
	12:43pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:43 Sounds fantastic.
	12:45pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "El Piojo Y La Pulga" by "Cepillín" This song is about a louse and a flea getting married.
	12:46pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Rich in Washington @12:40 SPIN magazine did an article about Trubee and "Blind Man's Penis" way back in 1986, that's how I first heard of it. Finally heard it decades later, on WFMU of course.
	12:48pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Kat in the chat @12:46 I think I remember that article!
	12:48pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Pan Con Mantequilla" by "Cepillín" a cover of the Newbeats' hit "Bread and Butter."
	12:49pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Pan Con Mantequilla" by "Cepillín" This music is wonderfully horrific!
	12:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @12:48 And here's Cepillin doing Grease! Later on we will hear him cover Prince!
	12:50pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Noches De Verano" by "Cepillín" Ach, mein gott!
	12:57pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Una Sonrisa Con Cepillín" by "Cepillín" This was the theme song to one of Cepillin's many TV shows.
	1:26pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Hain't Nobody" by "Russ Thompson" Whoah, can I request "My Wig Changing Mini Skirted Mama "?
	1:27pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:26 The Thompson records are some fun, rough ozark jams! Will slip it into the playlist.
	1:28pm Miss Mei: He released several singles with his wife on a label. Date unknown but I'd have to guess late 60s /early 70s
	1:30pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:26 Scratch that, Hain't Nobody / Mini Skirted Mama came out in 1970
	1:32pm Hunterian: ↳ Song: "My Wig Changing Mini Skirted Mama" by "Russ Thomp... Had a real driveway moment with this song
	1:33pm Mr Fab: Right on, thanks!
	1:34pm Miss Mei: ↳ Hunterian @1:32 He has another single that sounds very similar to this.
	👻 1:36pm WR: ↳ Song: "Dear Mr. President" by "Shorty & Ginger" Any clue about when this was made?
	1:37pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @1:36 No idea. Probably not long after JFK's death tho
	1:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Elvis" by "Sylvia" Good god, why have I not plated this yet? This has been sitting on my computer for months. It's brilliant.
	1:40pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Elvis" by "Sylvia" This voice is REALLY hard to listen to
	1:41pm Miss Mei: ↳ Kat in the chat @1:40 I forgot what this sounded like. I found it on an eBay auction. Some sellers include rips of what they're selling!
	👻 1:41pm WR: ↳ Song: "Dear Mr. President" by "Shorty & Ginger" The label in a rateyourmusic listing has 2006 on it. Maybe / maybe not the release date. rateyourmusic.com...
	1:44pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Tonight (Live 1991)" by "Todd Wathen" Special thanks to Todd's friend PJ for uncovering the video this was sourced from!
	1:48pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "U R Free" by "Corey Feldman" Take a listen to this BAFFLING tribute to the late Corey Haim.
	1:48pm Rich in Washington: Ha ha! Was just downstairs at work talking to someone who saw Corey opening for Limp Bizkit!
	1:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @1:48 The Lo-Serve-Ill tour! What a wild time that must've been, ive seen video.
	1:50pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "U R Free" by "Corey Feldman" I hope Corey comes back to NY, I simply HAVE to see him live.
	1:51pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Miss Mei @1:48 Baffling is a good word for it
	1:57pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Turtles Stole My Camera" by "MC Speshal K" Catchy chorus. I especially like the Elmer Fudd accents.
	1:58pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @1:57 He's got Cornwall Swagger.
	2:00pm Kat in the chat: Poor Wesley :(
	👻 2:00pm Herbie: ↳ Song: "My Fiasco Band Broke Up" by "Wesley Willis" Rare Wes!
	2:01pm Miss Mei: ↳ Herbie @2:00 Discovered this year by Ron English! Recorded some time between 1995-1997 I believe.
	👻 2:02pm Herbie: ↳ Miss Mei @2:01 Cool! Great find
	2:04pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Touch Of The Pharohs" by "Luie Luie" I wasn't ready for this track. What a wild ride!
	2:05pm Mr Fab: LA lounge legend. I found an autographed copy of this album at a garage sale.
	2:05pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:05 Amazing!
	2:07pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "Touch Of The Pharohs" by "Luie Luie" What a powerhouse!
	2:07pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:07 he played all the instruments!
	2:09pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:07 I remember him explaining that on Touchy. His spoken intros are so great.
	2:09pm Rich in Washington: The Wild Man doc Derailroaded is really good.
	👻 2:09pm WR: ↳ Song: "Vietcong Women" by "Wild Man Fischer" wonder who were Fischer's collaborators were on this.
	👻 2:10pm WR: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:09 Didn't know about the doc. Will look for it.
	2:10pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:09 I found out just now! It turns out he recorded that with a band called "The Girls" in 1979. The album is called Reunion.
	2:10pm Rich in Washington: ↳ WR @2:10 It's on Tubi! Well worth your time.
	2:10pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:10 It's very sad, but a great watch.
	2:11pm Rich in Washington: I have the Smegma with Wild Man Fischer album. It's a hoot and a half!
	2:11pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:11 That's a fun one! They did other songs together too that have come out on compilations
	2:14pm Mr Fab: ↳ Miss Mei @2:10 No way, that was The Girls?! They were a great Pere Ubu-related New Wave band. I think Krys O knew one of the members.
	2:15pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "All The People With The Money" by "Unknown" Oh wow! This is weapons grade plutonium!
	2:17pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:15 Its so very unhinged.
	2:19pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Every Day I Have the Blues" by "Woodstock Al" he's not off-key, he's No Wave!
	2:29pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "Short Fat Sky" by "Donny Mastler" yet another "Big Bad John" parody. Spacebrother Greg played some on one of his recent shows, saying he could probably do an entire hour of 'em.
	2:30pm Miss Mei: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Pretty bizarre!
	👻 2:31pm WR: ↳ Mr Fab @2:29 Seems there are plenty.
	2:32pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Short Fat Sky" by "Donny Mastler" There's a copy of this on Discogs going for $630.50

	2:38pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "I Teach The World To Sing" by "Sampson" Oh man! What's going on here?
	2:39pm Miss Mei: ↳ Herbie @2:37 I think he was the emcee
	2:40pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:38 A weird MP3 dot com guy. Claimed he was a music teacher, it was just an elaborate character.
	2:45pm Miss Mei: ↳ Song: "After School Snack Attack" by "Danny K.A.E." That's one heck of a snack attack.
	👻 2:49pm WR: ↳ Song: "To You I'm Not Home Anymore" by "Pismo Beach Elem... Teacher singing with elementary school musicians?
	2:51pm Miss Mei: ↳ WR @2:49 Could be!
	2:53pm Rich in Washington: ↳ Song: "Trainboy54 Theme" by "Trainboy54" This and William Tapley make me think there should be a ten day waiting period before taking possession a keyboard.
	2:54pm Miss Mei: ↳ Rich in Washington @2:53 Stand back in a basement and watch him in action!
