	🚀 ♥ 9:02pm Alex from Media: Hi Mike and Loungers!
	♥ 9:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ DJ Peter @9:01 Thank you for that charming intro, DJP. I gotta say you swept up that sawdust in record time tonight!
	🚀 ♥ 9:03pm Yvang: Hi Mike and folks!
	♥ 9:03pm Mike Lupica: Also, greetings all! It is good to be here.
	🚀 ♥ 9:03pm Chop Scott: Good Evening Mike!
	♥ 9:09pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "Spare Ass Annie" by "William S. Burroughs & the D... Have not heard this in a donkey's yonk. Still great.
	🚀 ♥ 9:14pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "The Girl in the Car With the Glasses and the Gun"... Well that segue was a wake up call!
	♥ 9:15pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @9:14 Comes with a complimentary papercut and wedge of lemon!
	🚀 ♥ 9:15pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @9:14 I needed this.
	♥ 9:17pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "The Girl in the Car With the Glasses and the Gun"... Is this inspired by the Sébastien Japrisot novel and/or Anatole Litvak film?
	♥ 9:17pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @9:17 Yes?
	🚀 ♥ 9:21pm Yvang: ↳ David Shortell @9:17 "All you need for a movie is a girl and a gun."
	♥ 9:22pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @9:21 That feels like it could also be a David Lee Roth quote.
	🚀 ♥ 9:24pm Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @9:22 Too bad he did not make a movie!
	9:25pm Nardo: Diamond Dave knew how to belt one out.
	♥ 9:27pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @9:24 He did, kinda! I think it was called "The Mojo Dojo" or something like that -- we got a VHS copy of it at WFMU like 25 years ago and it was one of the most fucked up things I've ever sat through. Most memorable scene was him hunting for Osama bin Laden with some bikini models, and then doing a flamenco guitar cover of a Savoy Brown song.
	♥ 9:28pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Nardo @9:25 Indeed.
	🚀 ♥ 9:28pm JAZZfromPHILLY: Hi Mike and appreciators of fine radio! This music is warming up a cold & damp evening, I must say.

	🚀 ♥ 9:39pm JAZZfromPHILLY: Radio 4eva!! 🎶🎙️📻
	🚀 ♥ 9:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "America" by "The Nice" re: latino culture referenced by white guys….west side story, “america” …”el paso” marty robbins…..”heroes and villains”…..question were parks/wilson inspired by “el paso”?….excuse me i’m bouncing around…..
	🚀 ♥ 9:42pm Alex from Media: W freaked me out for two presidencies. How tame he seems now.
	🚀 ♥ 9:44pm Yvang: Interesting theory about the effect of movie titles starting with a W. I never thought about that.
	🚀 ♥ 9:45pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @9:42 The T party took over.
	🚀 ♥ 9:45pm Alex from Media: ↳ Yvang @9:45 Hahaha!
	🚀 ♥ 9:46pm JAZZfromPHILLY: RIP Dave Allen G.4
	🚀 ♥ 9:47pm JAZZfromPHILLY: ↳ JAZZfromPHILLY @9:46 CRANK IT UP!!
	🚀 ♥ 9:48pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Damaged Goods" by "Gang of Four" RIP. I was thinking about Gang of Four the other day, they were Fugazi before Fugazi.
	♥ 9:49pm Andrew Waterloo: Good evening all
	🚀 ♥ 9:49pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Damaged Goods" by "Gang of Four" Dang. I just picked up their Return the Gift CD. Best version of I Love a Man in a Uniform.
	♥ 9:50pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @9:48 I have a Fugazi record pulled out tonight so we may be able to test this theory later, Yvang.
	🚀 ♥ 9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @9:48 just learned the acronym for fugazi….thought band was named for nyc limo service, but thought how strange for dc band
	♥ 9:50pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @9:49 Howdy Andrew, Numero 6, and any others I may have missed!
	🚀 ♥ 9:51pm JAZZfromPHILLY: G.4 ~ one of my fave bands to see live, back in the day
	♥ 9:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:50 FUGAZI: Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In (a Body Bag). Vietnam troop slang, so I was told.
	🚀 ♥ 9:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @9:51 yes...
	🚀 ♥ 9:52pm Numero 6: ↳ Song: "Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds" by "Soccer96" This is a nice electro song, my kind of music!:)
	🚀 ♥ 9:53pm Yvang: I believed they stole the name to the 80's prog rock band Marillion.
	🚀 ♥ 9:58pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "(When Bush Was Head Of The) C.I.A." by "Tone Dogs" This has a nervous energy, like a Juana Molina tune.
	🚀 ♥ 10:00pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Beat Beat Drums" by "The Ex" Yes! A new The Ex LP!
	♥ 10:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:00 Always cause for celebration!
	🚀 ♥ 10:19pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Way Down in the Hole" by "The Blind Boys of Alabama" This song is carved in my mind. Yes, I've watched the Wire!
	🚀 ♥ 10:23pm egal: Bubbles or Ziggy.
	🚀 ♥ 10:25pm WR: I woke up from a nap in time to miss The Nice version of America but in time for most of your subsequent back announce. As you continued from the movie night reports to speaking of some vision of Van Halen I was puzzled when you spoke of his something something a guitar. I've been listening since, trying to gear up for finishing my federal taxes. As the sleep fog in my mind has cleared a bit I realized that when you were speaking of Van Halen I was picturing David Lee Roth and something something guitar though you were no doubt speaking of Eddie Van Halen something something guitar. Realizing this, though an insignificant misunderstanding, but noting it took me so long to notice the source of my mental dissonance, I conclude that trying to finish taxes tonight is a fraught effort and instead I should just listen to your program and check on my music downloads. Hi Mike and folks.
	🚀 ♥ 10:30pm Yvang: I vote for Lester Freamon, because this character made me want to commit to watch the whole thing.
	♥ 10:30pm Mike Lupica: ↳ WR @10:25 I LIVE TO SERVE. ALSO, TAXES AREN'T DUE FOR LIKE ANOTHER WEEK.
	♥ 10:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:30 Yes! Lester is awesome.
	🚀 ♥ 10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" pretty raw sounding…nice...
	🚀 ♥ 10:31pm JAZZfromPHILLY: Charlie Watts! 🥁
	♥ 10:33pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" Is Jagger playing harmonica here?
	♥ 10:33pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:33 Yep!
	🚀 ♥ 10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David Shortell @10:33 it is excellent
	♥ 10:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ JAZZfromPHILLY @10:31 I think I told this story on the air recently, but here it comes again: Maybe 20-ish years ago I was in London and hanging out with WFMU's Vicki Bennett (aka People Like Us). We had lunch and got daydrunk on wine in some weird neighborhood that was pretty far off the beaten path. We paid and wandered back towards the bus stop and we saw Charlie Fucking Watts come out of a store wearing a bowler hat, tan raincoat, and carrying two grocery bags. We followed him home.
	🚀 ♥ 10:38pm Numero 6: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 Cool! You didn't say anything to him?
	🚀 ♥ 10:38pm Chop Scott: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" I've always had a sweet spot for the later "Love You Live" 2xlp. Better sound quality.
	♥ 10:39pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Numero 6 @10:38 No way, I'm scared shitless of famous people. Even when drunk.
	🚀 ♥ 10:40pm Numero 6: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:39 Wow. Probably me too!
	♥ 10:41pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Chop Scott @10:38 Totally. It's the intimacy of this performance that gets me.
	🚀 ♥ 10:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 notches down the scale of brushes with the famous… was walking around chelsea at six in the morning morning and a door opens and adam ant is escorted out of an apartment by a woman less than half his age and gets into a cab….
	♥ 10:42pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:41 Hahaha! That seems totally on-brand for Adam Ant.
	🚀 ♥ 10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:42 that happened about 15 years ago
	♥ 10:44pm Mike Lupica: As far as Chelsea goes, I used to see Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson so often around there I briefly entertained the idea that THEY were stalking ME.
	🚀 ♥ 10:44pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:43 phew. I was wondering how to calculate the less than half part.
	🚀 ♥ 10:44pm JAZZfromPHILLY: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 Fab story, Mike! I don't know what I would have done...probably try to wave to him...or say something. 😂😅
	🚀 ♥ 10:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:44 right…. mine was chelsea in london
	🚀 ♥ 10:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @10:44 was thinking he was in his sixties , the woman seemed less than thirty
	🚀 ♥ 10:46pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Power Space Jam" by "The Boston Typewriter Orches... I was gonna make a talking typerwriter crack earlier during the Burroughs track.
	♥ 10:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ JAZZfromPHILLY @10:44 I know myself well enough to understand that anything I tried to say would've come out sounding lame. David Bowie winked at me once, but it was through a window so I (fortunately) had no opportunity to reciprocate. Also, back when I worked for The Very Big Radio Station In NYC, I engineered an interview with Nigella Lawson. She smiled at me and I turned the color of the visible spectrum, much to the amusement of the rest of the engineering staff.
	♥ 10:48pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:45 Ahhh, my bad.
	🚀 ♥ 10:49pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:44 re:stalking…. in the early nineties kept running into willem dafoe….5-6 times….finally he looked straight at me, like i was a stalker….that broke the pattern
	🚀 ♥ 10:50pm JAZZfromPHILLY: That Bowie encounter is a great memory. Nigella is such a sweet lil' flirt.
	♥ 10:53pm Andrew Waterloo: Since i'm in moving mode I went to a record show and bought the few expensive'ish records instead of the many new ones. I did get some KLF and Clock DVA
	🚀 ♥ 10:56pm tom tom the pipers son: the only meaningful brush with someone of that ilk was walking down sixth ave in front of village vanguard and cab door opens, and pharoah sanders shoots me a big smile dressed in regalia holding a magenta metalflake sax case
	♥ 10:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "World o' Morons" by "Pop-o-Pies" Did the Dirtbombs do this song?
	♥ 10:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:56 Nice!
	♥ 10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:57 Dunno! Seems possible?
	🚀 ♥ 11:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:58 so what kind of house did charlie watts live in…?
	♥ 11:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:01 I think it was a brick rowhouse? Not a mansion by any means, but then again, I imagine he had more than one residence. Also, I was pretty wasted so my memory is foggy.
	🚀 ♥ 11:04pm Alex from Media: Gotta crash, Thanks Mike, Night all.
	11:04pm Dean: Tell the truth. Nigella Lawson is a moron, right?
	🚀 ♥ 11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:03 right…. a pied a terre
	♥ 11:05pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Dean @11:04 I think you're thinking of her ex husband who was a wife beating piece of shit.
	♥ 11:06pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:04 Peas out, Alex!
	11:06pm Dean: I'm not, because I don't know the back story, but of course all wife beaters are POS. But NL herself was kinda ... stupid?
	♥ 11:07pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Dean @11:06 I have no reason to think so. I will live and die by her hunter's chicken recipe and that is all I will say.
	🚀 ♥ 11:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @11:06 dean ….i sorta have same impression
	🚀 ♥ 11:11pm Yvang: We're only making plans for Nigella.
	🚀 ♥ 11:17pm Yvang: But Crazy Horse only has this wild theremin sound in the intro.
	🚀 ♥ 11:21pm tom tom the pipers son: got cheeky with saatchi during install at brooklyn museum……he and assistant were kissing each others ass over some arrangement of the mostly trash he was showing….and a said to the assistant…”that’s why you get the big bucks”….another time i’m picking up a 12 ft ladder and he decides to jump in and carry the back end, i say to assistant”got a camera? i’d like a picture of this for my portfolio” another time he brought me into a gallery of rachael whiteread sculptures, not a bad artist, but in this case a rip off of bruce nauman… i just said “yes, it’s very pretty”…little did i know i was auditioning to be part of his personal installation crew and was asked to do a difficult install which i could have done but the wall it was on was made of crumbling concrete so it took a long time…..that was the end of my passive aggressive courtship with charles saatchi…lucky i didn’t get strangled...
	♥ 11:23pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "And the Same (Demo)" by "Fugazi" The zine in question: microcosmpublishing.com...
	🚀 ♥ 11:27pm Chop Scott: I've always appreciated Fugazi--they recorded well.
	♥ 11:30pm GorillaFella: ↳ Song: "All I Need" by "Blackwater Holylight" This one's reminding me a bit of that first Chelsea Wolfe album! Loving it ❤️
	♥ 11:30pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "All I Need" by "Blackwater Holylight" Excellent version
	🚀 ♥ 11:31pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "And the Same (Demo)" by "Fugazi" Looks like he's unitentionaly playing the cymbal with his head. Also I am glad the basketball hoop did not break up.
	🚀 ♥ 11:33pm Yvang: ↳ Yvang @11:31 *unintentionally
	🚀 ♥ 11:38pm tom tom the pipers son: nobody like my charles saatchi story?….its a good story...
	♥ 11:38pm Mike Lupica: I think it's just gonna be one long set.
	🚀 ♥ 11:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 it was like performative investigative journalism
	🚀 ♥ 11:44pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 Yes it's a good story and I am glad you didn’t get strangled.
	🚀 ♥ 11:45pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Souls At Zero" by "Neurosis" Is this from an episode of the Twillight Zone (the gif)?
	♥ 11:46pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:45 Nah, it's from "Carnival of Souls" (the movie)
	🚀 ♥ 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks…i’m glad too...
	🚀 ♥ 11:51pm Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:46 Seems like I need to rewatch it.
	♥ 11:53pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:51 Always a freaky-deaky good time!
	🚀 ♥ 11:55pm Chop Scott: Bravo--and mucho thanks Mike!
	🚀 ♥ 11:55pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Take The Money & Run" by "Chitlin Fooks" swore this was going to be nightclubbin'
	🚀 ♥ 11:56pm Numero 6: Thanks for a most interesting set of music. BCNU!
	🚀 ♥ 11:57pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks mike….and thanks for the mastodon tip and help as well...

	🚀 ♥ 9:42pm Alex from Media: W freaked me out for two presidencies. How tame he seems now.
	🚀 ♥ 9:44pm Yvang: Interesting theory about the effect of movie titles starting with a W. I never thought about that.
	🚀 ♥ 9:45pm Yvang: ↳ Alex from Media @9:42 The T party took over.

	🚀 ♥ 9:48pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Damaged Goods" by "Gang of Four" RIP. I was thinking about Gang of Four the other day, they were Fugazi before Fugazi.
	♥ 9:49pm Andrew Waterloo: Good evening all
	🚀 ♥ 9:49pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Damaged Goods" by "Gang of Four" Dang. I just picked up their Return the Gift CD. Best version of I Love a Man in a Uniform.
	♥ 9:50pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @9:48 I have a Fugazi record pulled out tonight so we may be able to test this theory later, Yvang.
	🚀 ♥ 9:50pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Yvang @9:48 just learned the acronym for fugazi….thought band was named for nyc limo service, but thought how strange for dc band
	♥ 9:50pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Andrew Waterloo @9:49 Howdy Andrew, Numero 6, and any others I may have missed!
	🚀 ♥ 9:51pm JAZZfromPHILLY: G.4 ~ one of my fave bands to see live, back in the day
	♥ 9:51pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @9:50 FUGAZI: Fucked Up, Got Ambushed, Zipped In (a Body Bag). Vietnam troop slang, so I was told.
	🚀 ♥ 9:52pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @9:51 yes...
	🚀 ♥ 9:52pm Numero 6: ↳ Song: "Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds" by "Soccer96" This is a nice electro song, my kind of music!:)
	🚀 ♥ 9:53pm Yvang: I believed they stole the name to the 80's prog rock band Marillion.
	🚀 ♥ 9:58pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "(When Bush Was Head Of The) C.I.A." by "Tone Dogs" This has a nervous energy, like a Juana Molina tune.
	🚀 ♥ 10:00pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Beat Beat Drums" by "The Ex" Yes! A new The Ex LP!
	♥ 10:00pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:00 Always cause for celebration!
	🚀 ♥ 10:19pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Way Down in the Hole" by "The Blind Boys of Alabama" This song is carved in my mind. Yes, I've watched the Wire!
	🚀 ♥ 10:23pm egal: Bubbles or Ziggy.
	🚀 ♥ 10:25pm WR: I woke up from a nap in time to miss The Nice version of America but in time for most of your subsequent back announce. As you continued from the movie night reports to speaking of some vision of Van Halen I was puzzled when you spoke of his something something a guitar. I've been listening since, trying to gear up for finishing my federal taxes. As the sleep fog in my mind has cleared a bit I realized that when you were speaking of Van Halen I was picturing David Lee Roth and something something guitar though you were no doubt speaking of Eddie Van Halen something something guitar. Realizing this, though an insignificant misunderstanding, but noting it took me so long to notice the source of my mental dissonance, I conclude that trying to finish taxes tonight is a fraught effort and instead I should just listen to your program and check on my music downloads. Hi Mike and folks.
	🚀 ♥ 10:30pm Yvang: I vote for Lester Freamon, because this character made me want to commit to watch the whole thing.
	♥ 10:30pm Mike Lupica: ↳ WR @10:25 I LIVE TO SERVE. ALSO, TAXES AREN'T DUE FOR LIKE ANOTHER WEEK.
	♥ 10:31pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @10:30 Yes! Lester is awesome.
	🚀 ♥ 10:31pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" pretty raw sounding…nice...
	🚀 ♥ 10:31pm JAZZfromPHILLY: Charlie Watts! 🥁
	♥ 10:33pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" Is Jagger playing harmonica here?
	♥ 10:33pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:33 Yep!
	🚀 ♥ 10:34pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ David Shortell @10:33 it is excellent
	♥ 10:36pm Mike Lupica: ↳ JAZZfromPHILLY @10:31 I think I told this story on the air recently, but here it comes again: Maybe 20-ish years ago I was in London and hanging out with WFMU's Vicki Bennett (aka People Like Us). We had lunch and got daydrunk on wine in some weird neighborhood that was pretty far off the beaten path. We paid and wandered back towards the bus stop and we saw Charlie Fucking Watts come out of a store wearing a bowler hat, tan raincoat, and carrying two grocery bags. We followed him home.
	🚀 ♥ 10:38pm Numero 6: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 Cool! You didn't say anything to him?
	🚀 ♥ 10:38pm Chop Scott: ↳ Song: "Midnight Rambler" by "Rolling Stones" I've always had a sweet spot for the later "Love You Live" 2xlp. Better sound quality.
	♥ 10:39pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Numero 6 @10:38 No way, I'm scared shitless of famous people. Even when drunk.
	🚀 ♥ 10:40pm Numero 6: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:39 Wow. Probably me too!
	♥ 10:41pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Chop Scott @10:38 Totally. It's the intimacy of this performance that gets me.
	🚀 ♥ 10:41pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 notches down the scale of brushes with the famous… was walking around chelsea at six in the morning morning and a door opens and adam ant is escorted out of an apartment by a woman less than half his age and gets into a cab….
	♥ 10:42pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:41 Hahaha! That seems totally on-brand for Adam Ant.
	🚀 ♥ 10:43pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:42 that happened about 15 years ago
	♥ 10:44pm Mike Lupica: As far as Chelsea goes, I used to see Lou Reed and Laurie Anderson so often around there I briefly entertained the idea that THEY were stalking ME.
	🚀 ♥ 10:44pm WR: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:43 phew. I was wondering how to calculate the less than half part.
	🚀 ♥ 10:44pm JAZZfromPHILLY: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:36 Fab story, Mike! I don't know what I would have done...probably try to wave to him...or say something. 😂😅
	🚀 ♥ 10:45pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:44 right…. mine was chelsea in london
	🚀 ♥ 10:46pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ WR @10:44 was thinking he was in his sixties , the woman seemed less than thirty
	🚀 ♥ 10:46pm Alex from Media: ↳ Song: "Power Space Jam" by "The Boston Typewriter Orches... I was gonna make a talking typerwriter crack earlier during the Burroughs track.
	♥ 10:47pm Mike Lupica: ↳ JAZZfromPHILLY @10:44 I know myself well enough to understand that anything I tried to say would've come out sounding lame. David Bowie winked at me once, but it was through a window so I (fortunately) had no opportunity to reciprocate. Also, back when I worked for The Very Big Radio Station In NYC, I engineered an interview with Nigella Lawson. She smiled at me and I turned the color of the visible spectrum, much to the amusement of the rest of the engineering staff.
	♥ 10:48pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:45 Ahhh, my bad.
	🚀 ♥ 10:49pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:44 re:stalking…. in the early nineties kept running into willem dafoe….5-6 times….finally he looked straight at me, like i was a stalker….that broke the pattern
	🚀 ♥ 10:50pm JAZZfromPHILLY: That Bowie encounter is a great memory. Nigella is such a sweet lil' flirt.
	♥ 10:53pm Andrew Waterloo: Since i'm in moving mode I went to a record show and bought the few expensive'ish records instead of the many new ones. I did get some KLF and Clock DVA
	🚀 ♥ 10:56pm tom tom the pipers son: the only meaningful brush with someone of that ilk was walking down sixth ave in front of village vanguard and cab door opens, and pharoah sanders shoots me a big smile dressed in regalia holding a magenta metalflake sax case
	♥ 10:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "World o' Morons" by "Pop-o-Pies" Did the Dirtbombs do this song?
	♥ 10:57pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @10:56 Nice!
	♥ 10:58pm Mike Lupica: ↳ David Shortell @10:57 Dunno! Seems possible?
	🚀 ♥ 11:01pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @10:58 so what kind of house did charlie watts live in…?
	♥ 11:03pm Mike Lupica: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:01 I think it was a brick rowhouse? Not a mansion by any means, but then again, I imagine he had more than one residence. Also, I was pretty wasted so my memory is foggy.
	🚀 ♥ 11:04pm Alex from Media: Gotta crash, Thanks Mike, Night all.
	11:04pm Dean: Tell the truth. Nigella Lawson is a moron, right?
	🚀 ♥ 11:05pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:03 right…. a pied a terre
	♥ 11:05pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Dean @11:04 I think you're thinking of her ex husband who was a wife beating piece of shit.
	♥ 11:06pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Alex from Media @11:04 Peas out, Alex!
	11:06pm Dean: I'm not, because I don't know the back story, but of course all wife beaters are POS. But NL herself was kinda ... stupid?
	♥ 11:07pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Dean @11:06 I have no reason to think so. I will live and die by her hunter's chicken recipe and that is all I will say.
	🚀 ♥ 11:08pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Dean @11:06 dean ….i sorta have same impression
	🚀 ♥ 11:11pm Yvang: We're only making plans for Nigella.
	🚀 ♥ 11:17pm Yvang: But Crazy Horse only has this wild theremin sound in the intro.
	🚀 ♥ 11:21pm tom tom the pipers son: got cheeky with saatchi during install at brooklyn museum……he and assistant were kissing each others ass over some arrangement of the mostly trash he was showing….and a said to the assistant…”that’s why you get the big bucks”….another time i’m picking up a 12 ft ladder and he decides to jump in and carry the back end, i say to assistant”got a camera? i’d like a picture of this for my portfolio” another time he brought me into a gallery of rachael whiteread sculptures, not a bad artist, but in this case a rip off of bruce nauman… i just said “yes, it’s very pretty”…little did i know i was auditioning to be part of his personal installation crew and was asked to do a difficult install which i could have done but the wall it was on was made of crumbling concrete so it took a long time…..that was the end of my passive aggressive courtship with charles saatchi…lucky i didn’t get strangled...
	♥ 11:23pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Song: "And the Same (Demo)" by "Fugazi" The zine in question: microcosmpublishing.com...
	🚀 ♥ 11:27pm Chop Scott: I've always appreciated Fugazi--they recorded well.
	♥ 11:30pm GorillaFella: ↳ Song: "All I Need" by "Blackwater Holylight" This one's reminding me a bit of that first Chelsea Wolfe album! Loving it ❤️
	♥ 11:30pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "All I Need" by "Blackwater Holylight" Excellent version
	🚀 ♥ 11:31pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "And the Same (Demo)" by "Fugazi" Looks like he's unitentionaly playing the cymbal with his head. Also I am glad the basketball hoop did not break up.
	🚀 ♥ 11:33pm Yvang: ↳ Yvang @11:31 *unintentionally
	🚀 ♥ 11:38pm tom tom the pipers son: nobody like my charles saatchi story?….its a good story...
	♥ 11:38pm Mike Lupica: I think it's just gonna be one long set.
	🚀 ♥ 11:39pm tom tom the pipers son: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 it was like performative investigative journalism
	🚀 ♥ 11:44pm Yvang: ↳ tom tom the pipers son @11:38 Yes it's a good story and I am glad you didn’t get strangled.
	🚀 ♥ 11:45pm Yvang: ↳ Song: "Souls At Zero" by "Neurosis" Is this from an episode of the Twillight Zone (the gif)?
	♥ 11:46pm Mike Lupica: ↳ Yvang @11:45 Nah, it's from "Carnival of Souls" (the movie)
	🚀 ♥ 11:46pm tom tom the pipers son: thanks…i’m glad too...
	🚀 ♥ 11:51pm Yvang: ↳ Mike Lupica @11:46 Seems like I need to rewatch it.
