	9:10am dc pat: oh, ok. Hanx paul
	9:12am Parq: We got too many seagulls in NJ too! Dang, we got a lot in common with our ancestral namesake. Do you guys have big hair?
	9:13am dc pat: Ol' Doug over there looks like he might get some biggish hair on a humid day.
	9:16am postmanpaul: I'd say Doug has done big hair in the past, and other stuff too.
	9:19am postmanpaul: There is some good home grown to be found here indeed.
	9:28am SiHV: Just Muz, great stuff!
	9:28am Rob W: Incredible show you guys have put together, Celia and Billy and all your guests. Great job!
	9:29am Cheri PI: AMAZED!! Only 30 minutes into the show and my mind is blown!
	9:33am Parq: Muz's hiphop is just fine, and his poetry is a knock-out.
	9:34am postmanpaul: Talking of hips 'n hops, what's the real ale like in Jersey Billy?
	9:38am SiHV: Hip hop, then potato farmers. Hail WFMU.
	9:48am jeff-m: hey , maybe bring the music down just a bit
	9:53am BillyJam: How is it now? Keep sending updates Jeff every 15 mintues - thanks
	9:54am jeff-m: much better, ok i will. levels are better than usual i think
	9:57am jeff-m: hey, band needs to come up some
	9:58am jeff-m: much better thanks
	9:58am BillyJam: how are band now?
	9:59am jeff-m: great man
	9:59am BillyJam: Thanks Jeff Mullan -U da man!
	9:59am Cheri PI: The Wizz have a distinctive Proto-metal sound, can you ask them about it? Were Iron Claw a big influence?
	10:06am Cecile: Hi, all! Just tuning in. Man, I have to get to that festival!
	10:12am efd: Listening online at work - sounding great, Billy, and kudos to Jeff for holding it down back at the WFMU Broadcast Centre.
	10:17am postmanpaul: Sounding great here in Brighton UK too, Billy. When you coming to this neck of the woods Billy!
	10:18am jeff-m: thanks Evan Morning to you. Was just going to say that sounds like the Bay of Fundy
	10:19am Cecile: Great. We just get zebra mussels in the US.
	10:19am Jenniqua: I am a sea lover as well. Grew up on the Pacific in California, but have been to the Bay of Fundy. Would love to come visit Olde Jersey.
	10:29am Cecile: Quick and the Dead. Love it, even the little flat bit. Great stuff.
	10:31am Jenniqua: There was an electronics store back in the '90s in NYC called Nobody Beats the Wiz. I think that store even did a song for the NY Knicks basketball cheerleader team, singing GO NEW YORK GO NEW YORK GP NEW YORK GO!
	10:31am Cheri PI: I gre up in Japan and then lived in Seattle. I now live in Ohio-not having an ocean a stones throw is possibly the saddest thing I've endured.
	10:32am Cecile: Wasn't the phrase "the Wiz" sampled in some rap song?
	10:34am Mike East: Billy Jam in the AM?! For a minute I thought I was really late to work. Great pics!
	10:35am Jenniqua: Cecile - yeah. It was in a song called Nobody Beats the Biz, as in Biz Markie.
	10:38am Cecile: That's right!
	10:39am thuggyBear: the idea behind this song deserves better.
	10:48am Cecile: Nice! I thougth Isaac was great last year.
	10:49am postmanpaul: I like what you're doing there Billy, a really nice vibe coming over.
	10:50am Cheri PI: YEAHHHHHHHHHH!!
	10:50am Cecile: Wizz! You're putting your foot in it!
	10:50am Jenniqua: I think I need a photo of these guys.
	10:52am postmanpaul: Is that as in 'breaking a leg'?! Cecile
	10:56am jeff-m: got it :)
	10:56am Cecile: It means, "well done!" It's African-American slang I picked up at work. It's from kicking an American football field goal, I think.
	10:58am Cecile: I just love the image.
	10:59am jeff-m: The Wiz wa sa Michael Jackson movie too. Sort of a Wizard of Oz if remember correctly
	11:00am Cecile: Yes! I am hearing that the NZ Film Board is going through similar struggles with commerciality/art.
	11:02am Jenniqua: Jeff - m: yes the Wiz was a african-american movie version of the Wizard of Oz. Michael Jackson played the scarecrow and his nose was a Reese's Peanut Butter cup. That I remember most of all as a kid watching it.
	11:07am jeff-m: ok, wasn't sure if it was an exact version or was sort of a take off of it. Had a girlfriend who adored that movie, but don;t remember it much myself
	11:10am Parq: Jeff, the movie was an adaptation of a Broadway show, which updated the original story for what was then known as an "all-Black cast". The song "Ease On Down the Road" was the big hit from the show.
	11:15am Emile: That movie made a huge impression on me when I was a kid. Whatever your take on the movie today (and I still think its totally cool), I think socially it was huge to see this movie reinterpreted by black folk. Quincy Jones was in control of much of it, I think. A very nice surreal streak, too. Check it out!
	11:16am Cecile: there was some controversy because the dynamic Stephanie Mills was replaced by Diana Ross in the movie.
	11:17am postmanpaul: NO DEPT in Jersey!!! Is there a US Government Accountability Office definition for that?!
	11:17am Cecile: My favorite song was the Wicked Witch's: "Don't Nobody Bring Me No Bad News."
	11:18am jeff-m: hey , you have to bring him up some
	11:18am postmanpaul: ...debt, of course.
	11:19am Parq: There was also a US miniseries "Tin Man", a steam-punky sci fi thing loosely adapted from the W of Oz. The title referred to the nickname that interspace marshals had, a riff on their badges.
	11:19am jeff-m: never misunderstood that that was still bed msuic
	11:20am texas scott: Best of 2010,so far. 8 til 10 eastern. http://tinyurl.com/23alugc namaste,biatches.
	11:42am Cheri Pi: Billy Jam-you have outdone yourself, this is radio history.
	11:42am Cecile: Wizz. A couple more years of seasoning and you will be taking the world by storm.
	11:43am Jenniqua: Can I be the head of the Wizz fan club?
	11:45am Cecile: I think me and CheriPi might want to fight you for that, J.
	11:45am Aaron: great show jillybam!
	11:46am Parq: Ain't it the truth, Ms. Pi! I was just thinking how spoiled long-time FMU listeners are -- we are actually accustomed to programming like this.
	11:47am postmanpaul: über embassador Billy Jam!
	11:47am Cecile: I have to agree with all ya'll. We are the luckiest people on earth.
	11:56am Cheri Pi: Yes Cecile-the fight is on! I'm gonna wear my crazy tight jeans!!
	11:57am Cecile: I'll raise your my neon pink skinny jeans! It's on like Donkey Kong!
	11:58am postmanpaul: Those young Jersey fellas have got balls. I wish em luck
	11:59am Cheri Pi: WOOHOOOO!
	12:00pm Jenniqua: Nobody beats The Wizz!
	5:47am The Wizz: Thanks to Billy Jam and all your support ... If you are a true FAN! join the Facebook Page http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Wizz/128160303875445?ref=ts
