	9:19pm Carmichael: Heya Nate. There will be flames 🔥
	♥ 9:21pm ultradamno: imageproxy.ifunny.co...
	♥ 9:21pm Mark T: ↳ Song: "I Can't Pretend" by "The Barracudas" Great fireworks 🎇 music
	♥ 9:23pm Canuck Bob: ↳ Song: "Promises, Promises" by "Barreracudas" Does this ever have a Cars vibe. I feel like I'm about 12 years old listening to this.
	♥ 9:26pm Justin CollectorScum: Cheater Slicks getting me to listen at home on the fancy McIntosh tuner and actually login. I was one of the few at the Montclair show. Should've hit Philly and BKLN too...
	♥ 9:28pm katie: Thanks for providing an alternative to the sounds of the war machine celebration. Sadly my cats seem to be equally scared by the fireworks and my dancing to the Barracudas.
	♥ 9:28pm Squints: ↳ Song: "Can't Wait Til The Summer Comes" by "Ronnie Mayor" This is pretty bitchin'.
	♥ 9:30pm Nate K.: Ya know, I've never thought of that, but you're right. The keyboard part for sure.
	♥ 9:30pm Nate K.: My pleasure. It's what I'm here for.
	♥ 9:30pm Nate K.: ↳ Justin CollectorScum @9:26 The Meat Locker show? Is that basement of Almost ready?
	♥ 9:34pm Justin CollectorScum: ↳ Nate K. @9:30 Yes. Surprisingly the 1st time I'd ever been there. Around the corner from the shop. Definitely a basement.
	♥ 9:37pm ultradamno: mastodon.social...
	9:37pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: howdy nate! arsonists!
	♥ 9:38pm Nate K.: ↳ prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile @9:37 Hey, prof.!
	♥ 9:39pm Canuck Bob: As a Canadian I say Happy 4th and thanks for blues country punk rock and roll disco house hip hop and all the rest. That alone makes the U.S. great. Appreciate it.
	♥ 9:41pm Nate K.: That's how I try to look at it. : /
	♥ 9:42pm ultradamno: Mr Fab couldn't do his show today due to technical issues, so I listened to PYPY and Bloodshot Bill...so thanks Canada (specifically Québec, I guess)
	♥ 9:44pm Canuck Bob: ↳ ultradamno @9:42 There are so many great bands coming out of Montreal lately. The scene there seems like something great. Ontario not so much for rock and roll.
	9:47pm jmd: Holy wow! The drums on thst last track. Ka-Blammo!
	♥ 9:53pm ultradamno: ↳ Song: "We All Love Peanut Butter" by "The One-Way Streets" Back From The Grave taught me this one
	♥ 9:54pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @9:53 Yup!
	9:55pm tonyb: Solid Stones B-side!
	♥ 9:56pm drew73: ↳ Song: "Child of the Moon" by "The Rolling Stones" Love Cheater Slicks' cover of this one
	♥ 10:06pm ultradamno: Most times wfmu.org redirects to freeform.wfmu.org, though a 503 error will come up now and again
	10:09pm kevlicki: NateK coming in clear on the 90.1 frequency! Sounding good on this fourth day of July and happy to be surrounded by your mix! The Barreracudas brought me back to Liz Berg days, happy to hear them!
	10:09pm ledzeppelinsucks: Yeah
	♥ 10:10pm Chili MacPagoda: Absolutely digging the show, Nate! I heard you say something about yr hometown - are you also a Pittsburgh yinzer?
	♥ 10:11pm Nate K.: ↳ kevlicki @10:09 Right on! Liz Berg always did a great show.
	10:11pm ledzeppelinsucks: Who invented car chase music? That symphonic disco and foolish banjo swill was a trainload of bs.
	♥ 10:11pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:10 4life
	♥ 10:11pm drew73: ↳ Song: "The Nude Intruder" by "Cheater Slicks" I consider this sort of an alt riff on the Who's 'How Can You Do It Alone'. If that song were good, that is.
	♥ 10:12pm Nate K.: ↳ drew73 @10:11 Gonna think on that one...
	♥ 10:12pm drew73: No offense, Face Dances.
	♥ 10:13pm Squints: ↳ Nate K. @10:11 Lived just west of Pittsburgh for not quite seven years in the early and mid 1990s before the siren song of New England called me back. Except for it not being home, I liked it there.
	10:14pm ledzeppelinsucks: This is the dreaded time for emergency room workers. Kids with missing fingers and faces are tough to deal with.
	♥ 10:14pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Nate K. @10:11 Hahaha same! Eide’s, Jerry’s, The O fries, Oakland Beehive(where I saw one of the best live shows evah, The Jesus Lizard). Not only am I a fan of yr show but we are now brothers n’at. ;-)
	♥ 10:17pm greg g: Nate, Uptra D, Chili Mac! Happy Friday the 4th! Cheater Slicks setting off some pyrotechnics here!
	♥ 10:18pm Nate K.: ↳ Song: "Think I'm Coming Down" by "Cheater Slicks" Probably my favorite cover they've ever done.
	♥ 10:18pm ultradamno: Hiya gpeg!
	♥ 10:18pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:14 Right on!
	♥ 10:19pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ greg g @10:17 Happy 4th Greg! Oakland is about two & a half hours away from blowing itself up, it’s a yearly tradition
	♥ 10:20pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:14 That JL Beehive show is infamous/legendary. I was a little too young to make it.
	♥ 10:22pm Handy Haversack: OK, we're back inside to relieve the dog's anxiety a bit. Cheater Slicks set doing a great job relieving mine!
	♥ 10:23pm ultradamno: The last two sets have had a lot of noise to compete with here but not as much of the really booming mortar shell ones, for which I am grateful
	♥ 10:23pm greg g: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:19 A lot of sanctioned and unsanctioned fireworks going on here in Buffalo. But hopefully things are under control, and everyone keeps their digits and stays safe.
	♥ 10:31pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Nate K. @10:20 I was nearly crushed(for real) at that JL show. That era was ripe with great shows, at one point thee Burgh was a regular stop for touring avant- jazz bands from NYC & Chicago. Say whatever about his methods, but Manny T promoted some killer stuff back then.
	♥ 10:32pm Chili MacPagoda: Live Cheater Slicks is dynamite 👍
	♥ 10:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: Burn it down (mandatory) Rebuild it from the ashes (optional)
	10:33pm kevlicki: I just moved and putting my t’s away, I have a whole drawer devoted to fmu shirts, lets see if that actually all fit 🤪
	♥ 10:33pm Nardo: Getting a double dose of Cheater Slicks live. Just caught them earlier here in Cbus with a bunch of other bands including Juanita & Juan.
	♥ 10:34pm David Shortell: ↳ Justin CollectorScum @9:34 Not too many stuck around for the Cheater Slicks. I think most of the crowd were there for T.O.P. Sinnaz and Liquor Store.
	♥ 10:34pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:31 Agree 100 percent. I saw shows that an average teenager had no business even knowing about thanks to Manny.
	♥ 10:35pm James: Was listening to the first couple sets hauling ass on the turnpike with fireworks in all directions....summer is here
	♥ 10:35pm Canuck Bob: ↳ Song: "The Cheater Slicks live on the show!!!! (engineer... This is awesome. Ramshackle as hell. Great set! Epic!
	10:35pm kevlicki: I don’t have anywhere left for socks and underwear! I’m surprised by how many SUW shirts were made
	♥ 10:48pm Handy Haversack: Squawk is great! Listen to that show! Also, I might be able to get you Burners a deal on an almost-official efd smoking jacket ...
	10:48pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: i wonder what 3x guests on efd’s show get?
	♥ 10:48pm chinn: Great live set, cool holiday show!
	♥ 10:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Move Right In" by "The Velvet Underground" Finally, a DJ who calls it like it is!
	♥ 10:49pm Nate K.: Hey, Chinn!
	♥ 10:50pm Nate K.: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:48 Truth. No punches pulled.
	♥ 10:50pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile @10:48 The option to subscribe to the 5X Smoking Jacket Club at a low-low rate for a limited time only!
	10:50pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: take my money!
	10:51pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: i mean, if i only knew someone who might be making a third appearance…
	♥ 10:53pm Nate K.: I'd think Joe Belock would need one for Steve Wynn.
	♥ 10:53pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Move Right In" by "The Velvet Underground" I ended up with the weirdest assortment of VU CDs because of what I could order through one of my college jobs at the bookstore, but, baby, this sure the hell is one of them!
	♥ 11:02pm ultradamno: bsky.app...
	♥ 11:04pm ultradamno: I think the celebration of terrifying animals is winding down now
	♥ 11:08pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @11:04 Like ... slake moths?
	♥ 11:09pm ultradamno: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:08 That would be preferable
	♥ 11:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @11:09 Jiminy!
	♥ 11:13pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:02 I used the discount code to get the double rehearsal CD
	♥ 11:15pm ultradamno: Amerika First too on the nose?
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @11:15 I thought about it...
	♥ 11:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Tobacco Man" by "Sound Ceremony" Getting a very strong vision of blasting this song while driving through the eighty-foot-tall cigarette-pack sculptures near the 85-95 interchange in Fredericksburg, VA.
	♥ 11:21pm ultradamno: Pagans' Dead End America would pair nicely with it
	♥ 11:22pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @11:21 mastodon.social... mastodon.social...
	♥ 11:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:20 I guess there's actually a chance they're not there anymore. Last time I did that interchange was ... 1996?
	♥ 11:28pm Justin CollectorScum: ↳ David Shortell @10:34 Didn't help that it ran so late. Sure, the original idea that they'd be done by midnight with 5 bands was unrealistic, but it should have started at 9 sharp and that 1st local band should be forced to read David Thomas's / Pere Ubu's statement on the rights & responsibilities of being a supporting act.
	♥ 11:33pm Steve Harsh: Love your description of the Gizmos. Love Cheater Slicks. Love your show - thanks Nate!!!
	11:42pm Eric the Hat: Nate. Please. I would like to go off and listen to a specific dead tape. If you see this , please recommend. Thank you
	♥ 11:43pm radioronan: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:19 Hey thanks Handy..I'm actually inside working..still lighting stuff up out there! Hope Radio & the cats aren't too spooked.
	♥ 11:45pm Handy Haversack: ↳ radioronan @11:43 I think the dog has calmed now. He definitely freaked out for a bit. All OK now. Have a good night, neighbor!
	♥ 11:46pm Folsom: ↳ Song: "Je n'Attends Plus Personne" by "Francoise Hardy" Good pick for song.
	11:56pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: great show tonight, nate. thx!
	♥ 11:56pm Chop Scott: Nate--it's good form to give proper credit to the engineers of any live session at WFMU. The station always miraculously has a solid crop of engineers in the pool that volunteer their services. They should be credited on the playlist.
	♥ 11:56pm Canuck Bob: Every set had something great. Awesome show. Thanks.
	♥ 11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Nate. Have a nice weekend.
	♥ 11:57pm radioronan: Great show - Thanks Nate..Have a good night neighbors & all!
	♥ 11:58pm Nate K.: ↳ Chop Scott @11:56 Of course... My bad.
	♥ 11:58pm Chop Scott: Sorry to point out--but necessary!
	♥ 11:58pm Folsom: ↳ Chop Scott @11:56 Mike Sin is a good engineer, I need to listen to him fill in for Rex, that guy is the master of compilations.
	♥ 12:02am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Nate!
	♥ 12:14am Nate K.: ↳ Chop Scott @11:58 Yeah, I don’t know why/how that escaped me.

	♥ 9:56pm drew73: ↳ Song: "Child of the Moon" by "The Rolling Stones" Love Cheater Slicks' cover of this one
	♥ 10:06pm ultradamno: Most times wfmu.org redirects to freeform.wfmu.org, though a 503 error will come up now and again
	10:09pm kevlicki: NateK coming in clear on the 90.1 frequency! Sounding good on this fourth day of July and happy to be surrounded by your mix! The Barreracudas brought me back to Liz Berg days, happy to hear them!
	10:09pm ledzeppelinsucks: Yeah
	♥ 10:10pm Chili MacPagoda: Absolutely digging the show, Nate! I heard you say something about yr hometown - are you also a Pittsburgh yinzer?
	♥ 10:11pm Nate K.: ↳ kevlicki @10:09 Right on! Liz Berg always did a great show.
	10:11pm ledzeppelinsucks: Who invented car chase music? That symphonic disco and foolish banjo swill was a trainload of bs.
	♥ 10:11pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:10 4life
	♥ 10:11pm drew73: ↳ Song: "The Nude Intruder" by "Cheater Slicks" I consider this sort of an alt riff on the Who's 'How Can You Do It Alone'. If that song were good, that is.
	♥ 10:12pm Nate K.: ↳ drew73 @10:11 Gonna think on that one...
	♥ 10:12pm drew73: No offense, Face Dances.
	♥ 10:13pm Squints: ↳ Nate K. @10:11 Lived just west of Pittsburgh for not quite seven years in the early and mid 1990s before the siren song of New England called me back. Except for it not being home, I liked it there.
	10:14pm ledzeppelinsucks: This is the dreaded time for emergency room workers. Kids with missing fingers and faces are tough to deal with.
	♥ 10:14pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Nate K. @10:11 Hahaha same! Eide’s, Jerry’s, The O fries, Oakland Beehive(where I saw one of the best live shows evah, The Jesus Lizard). Not only am I a fan of yr show but we are now brothers n’at. ;-)
	♥ 10:17pm greg g: Nate, Uptra D, Chili Mac! Happy Friday the 4th! Cheater Slicks setting off some pyrotechnics here!
	♥ 10:18pm Nate K.: ↳ Song: "Think I'm Coming Down" by "Cheater Slicks" Probably my favorite cover they've ever done.
	♥ 10:18pm ultradamno: Hiya gpeg!
	♥ 10:18pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:14 Right on!
	♥ 10:19pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ greg g @10:17 Happy 4th Greg! Oakland is about two & a half hours away from blowing itself up, it’s a yearly tradition
	♥ 10:20pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:14 That JL Beehive show is infamous/legendary. I was a little too young to make it.
	♥ 10:22pm Handy Haversack: OK, we're back inside to relieve the dog's anxiety a bit. Cheater Slicks set doing a great job relieving mine!
	♥ 10:23pm ultradamno: The last two sets have had a lot of noise to compete with here but not as much of the really booming mortar shell ones, for which I am grateful
	♥ 10:23pm greg g: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:19 A lot of sanctioned and unsanctioned fireworks going on here in Buffalo. But hopefully things are under control, and everyone keeps their digits and stays safe.
	♥ 10:31pm Chili MacPagoda: ↳ Nate K. @10:20 I was nearly crushed(for real) at that JL show. That era was ripe with great shows, at one point thee Burgh was a regular stop for touring avant- jazz bands from NYC & Chicago. Say whatever about his methods, but Manny T promoted some killer stuff back then.
	♥ 10:32pm Chili MacPagoda: Live Cheater Slicks is dynamite 👍
	♥ 10:33pm Ken From Hyde Park: Burn it down (mandatory) Rebuild it from the ashes (optional)
	10:33pm kevlicki: I just moved and putting my t’s away, I have a whole drawer devoted to fmu shirts, lets see if that actually all fit 🤪
	♥ 10:33pm Nardo: Getting a double dose of Cheater Slicks live. Just caught them earlier here in Cbus with a bunch of other bands including Juanita & Juan.
	♥ 10:34pm David Shortell: ↳ Justin CollectorScum @9:34 Not too many stuck around for the Cheater Slicks. I think most of the crowd were there for T.O.P. Sinnaz and Liquor Store.
	♥ 10:34pm Nate K.: ↳ Chili MacPagoda @10:31 Agree 100 percent. I saw shows that an average teenager had no business even knowing about thanks to Manny.
	♥ 10:35pm James: Was listening to the first couple sets hauling ass on the turnpike with fireworks in all directions....summer is here
	♥ 10:35pm Canuck Bob: ↳ Song: "The Cheater Slicks live on the show!!!! (engineer... This is awesome. Ramshackle as hell. Great set! Epic!
	10:35pm kevlicki: I don’t have anywhere left for socks and underwear! I’m surprised by how many SUW shirts were made
	♥ 10:48pm Handy Haversack: Squawk is great! Listen to that show! Also, I might be able to get you Burners a deal on an almost-official efd smoking jacket ...
	10:48pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: i wonder what 3x guests on efd’s show get?
	♥ 10:48pm chinn: Great live set, cool holiday show!
	♥ 10:48pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Move Right In" by "The Velvet Underground" Finally, a DJ who calls it like it is!
	♥ 10:49pm Nate K.: Hey, Chinn!
	♥ 10:50pm Nate K.: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:48 Truth. No punches pulled.
	♥ 10:50pm Handy Haversack: ↳ prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile @10:48 The option to subscribe to the 5X Smoking Jacket Club at a low-low rate for a limited time only!
	10:50pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: take my money!
	10:51pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: i mean, if i only knew someone who might be making a third appearance…
	♥ 10:53pm Nate K.: I'd think Joe Belock would need one for Steve Wynn.
	♥ 10:53pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "I'm Gonna Move Right In" by "The Velvet Underground" I ended up with the weirdest assortment of VU CDs because of what I could order through one of my college jobs at the bookstore, but, baby, this sure the hell is one of them!
	♥ 11:02pm ultradamno: bsky.app...
	♥ 11:04pm ultradamno: I think the celebration of terrifying animals is winding down now
	♥ 11:08pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @11:04 Like ... slake moths?
	♥ 11:09pm ultradamno: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:08 That would be preferable
	♥ 11:11pm Handy Haversack: ↳ ultradamno @11:09 Jiminy!
	♥ 11:13pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @8:02 I used the discount code to get the double rehearsal CD
	♥ 11:15pm ultradamno: Amerika First too on the nose?
	♥ 11:18pm Nate K.: ↳ ultradamno @11:15 I thought about it...
	♥ 11:20pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Tobacco Man" by "Sound Ceremony" Getting a very strong vision of blasting this song while driving through the eighty-foot-tall cigarette-pack sculptures near the 85-95 interchange in Fredericksburg, VA.
	♥ 11:21pm ultradamno: Pagans' Dead End America would pair nicely with it
	♥ 11:22pm ultradamno: ↳ ultradamno @11:21 mastodon.social... mastodon.social...
	♥ 11:22pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:20 I guess there's actually a chance they're not there anymore. Last time I did that interchange was ... 1996?
	♥ 11:28pm Justin CollectorScum: ↳ David Shortell @10:34 Didn't help that it ran so late. Sure, the original idea that they'd be done by midnight with 5 bands was unrealistic, but it should have started at 9 sharp and that 1st local band should be forced to read David Thomas's / Pere Ubu's statement on the rights & responsibilities of being a supporting act.
	♥ 11:33pm Steve Harsh: Love your description of the Gizmos. Love Cheater Slicks. Love your show - thanks Nate!!!
	11:42pm Eric the Hat: Nate. Please. I would like to go off and listen to a specific dead tape. If you see this , please recommend. Thank you
	♥ 11:43pm radioronan: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:19 Hey thanks Handy..I'm actually inside working..still lighting stuff up out there! Hope Radio & the cats aren't too spooked.
	♥ 11:45pm Handy Haversack: ↳ radioronan @11:43 I think the dog has calmed now. He definitely freaked out for a bit. All OK now. Have a good night, neighbor!
	♥ 11:46pm Folsom: ↳ Song: "Je n'Attends Plus Personne" by "Francoise Hardy" Good pick for song.
	11:56pm prof.fuzz in the fuZZZmobile: great show tonight, nate. thx!
	♥ 11:56pm Chop Scott: Nate--it's good form to give proper credit to the engineers of any live session at WFMU. The station always miraculously has a solid crop of engineers in the pool that volunteer their services. They should be credited on the playlist.
	♥ 11:56pm Canuck Bob: Every set had something great. Awesome show. Thanks.
	♥ 11:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Nate. Have a nice weekend.
	♥ 11:57pm radioronan: Great show - Thanks Nate..Have a good night neighbors & all!
	♥ 11:58pm Nate K.: ↳ Chop Scott @11:56 Of course... My bad.
	♥ 11:58pm Chop Scott: Sorry to point out--but necessary!
	♥ 11:58pm Folsom: ↳ Chop Scott @11:56 Mike Sin is a good engineer, I need to listen to him fill in for Rex, that guy is the master of compilations.
	♥ 12:02am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Nate!
	♥ 12:14am Nate K.: ↳ Chop Scott @11:58 Yeah, I don’t know why/how that escaped me.
