	♥ 12:35am 12539: Is that my connection going haywire, or an argument in favor of vinyl?

	12:38am jeff-m: nah, happened to me too. some sort of momentary skipping effect on the stream, Joe

	12:41am jeff-m: fine now here. was just for a min a while back
	♥ 12:42am Ken From Hyde Park: Skipping again.
	♥ 12:42am 12539: Oops. Must be the stream, it's back.
	12:43am fleep: It's gone choppy again
	12:43am Chop Scott: The Relatives were amazing that night!
	12:44am Parq: Hah. I assume it was my set up here. Yes, this was a freakin' incredible set.
	12:45am Parq: Hi, Joe. Sitting here digging your show and reading Dylan Thomas and Kliph Nesteroff. Life is good. Calm before the storm over there, yeh?
	♥ 12:46am Joe McG: OK, let me consult the technical wizards...
	♥ 12:47am dknight23: switched from laptop to phone; same thing. getting worse. uhn...uhn...uhn...uhn...uhn.
	♥ 12:48am Joe McG: I put in the call. Sorry you guys aren't getting the full effect of this Relatives number. Damn the Internet.
	♥ 12:51am dknight23: sounding great now on both laptop and phone. Yay!!
	♥ 12:51am 12539: Joe, can you send the Relatives over to my house, just in case it happens again?
	12:52am jeff-m: should have waited till later to call Liz ;)
	♥ 12:53am Joe McG: No worries, jeff-m; I called Jeff M.!
	12:57am Bridget M: But did you call Chris M.?!!!
	♥ 12:58am dknight23: Audio cooties affecting WFMU's stream. Must be the sequestration.
	1:02am Jeff: Yeah, so far I'm not hearing any oddities in the stream (at least at my house via Comcast), and there've been no squawks from our automatic monitoring of all the streams and their backups, and... I dunno. @dknight23, may I ask who's your internet provider? If a problem crops up again, there might be a correlation. But right now it all seems as smooth as the knot in Gentleman Joe's bow tie.
	♥ 1:04am Joe McG: Thanks for checkin' it out, Jeff M! Many thanks from Joe M!
	1:05am ?: had issues too, Jeff. using Comcast here. just had to restart Winamp a few times
	1:06am jeff-m: whoops that was me ^^^
	♥ 1:07am dknight23: Internet via Cox Communications. Didn't think of that. Jeff, Thanks for checking.
	♥ 1:07am 12539: I had issues too, Verizon. All's well since somewhere late in the Relatives song.
	1:08am Holly in NC: Hi Joe & all! Car battery died so had to walk home (luckily only mile or thereabouts), but since after midnight & carrying 3 heavy bags I am quite grouchy and tired. Will be a quiet but appreciative listener once I get settled. You're coming through fine on sprint android, so yay for small favors!
	♥ 1:09am Joe McG: Wow, Holly, what a drag!
	♥ 1:15am Matt from Springfield: Hey Joe, and Cosmic Travelers of Radio! @Holly: Ooof! Hope you have better luck with your car!
	1:16am Jeff: Huh. Yeah, I came to this party after everyone was having the skip-fest, so my hearing no problems isn't so meaningful. Sounds as if people on multiple carriers were having troubles, so presumably whatever the problem was was farther upstream than that, but either not as far upstream as our servers or not for long enough that our network monitoring caught it. I don't think I can nail it down tightly right now... so I'll just hope that the musical ship sails on okay from here, and toddle off.
	♥ 1:17am Joe McG: Fingers crossed, Jeff. Thanks again! Hey, Matt, welcome to the blipfest!
	♥ 1:19am Matt from Springfield: Seems I missed the touch-and-go earlier! But, glad to come in on this Cosmic Travelers!
	♥ 1:23am Matt from Springfield: Good segue on the acid rock! The Numero Group always BRINGS IT!
	♥ 1:23am dknight23: stream/feed/whatever has been perfect last 20-25 minutes. thx!
	♥ 1:23am osvi: Mmmmmmmarathon time! I wish you guys the best, Joe McGasko. Had to put in a quick pledge and get me that kitty cat t-shirt! Give till it hurts!
	1:24am Holly in NC: Yeah, I have triple A, but my mechanic not open til Monday & don't want to waste tow, so will try & get a jump to hobble home tomorrow and then get tow if necessary. Pretty sure it's necessary. Battery definitely predates 2007 & may date to 1996... Show is excellent, just what I needed to calm down. Thank you, Joe, very much.
	♥ 1:24am Joe McG: Thanks, osvi! Much appreciate the pledges!
	♥ 1:30am Matt from Springfield: Why HellO! Daniel Blumin!
	♥ 1:31am Matt from Springfield: Ludes+wine+sparklers+1:30 am+radio = FUN! Go 4 IT! ;)
	1:31am RevolutionRabbitNov63: Comcast in hyperborean New Hampshire & no Surface Noise other than intended - presumably came in after the extra Special FX...Mercury Retrograde but when in Pisces why try'n make sense anyway...everybody tells me I'm lucky I don't drive but I don't see the beeatches walkin' w/ me...isn't FMU nice to come home to Holly?...I know WFMU doesn't love me yet - but I think I already want to marry it - & after only two months together - I just want to be w/ it all the time!...should I try to sleep w/ it tonight?; it's such a ruff & unpredictable sort - or play hard to get & sleep w/ some chill stream of Jazz or Indian music? Maybe it would respect me more in the end...
	1:34am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Probably still better than just wine w/out even dinner: My last Thursday Archived forever...gotta do it sometimes...
	♥ 1:35am Matt from Springfield: Evening, RRN63! WFMU can play hard to get several times a day, but ultimately the attraction is mutual, and you'll be in bed with WFMU soon enough! In fact, we're ALL in bed with WFMU right now! But it's a bed big enough for us all...a bed as grand and breathtaking as Kevin Ayers "Crystal Clear" music bed ! :)
	♥ 1:37am Matt from Springfield: Jason Sigal = WFMU's, Jason Segel = Apatow actor, pronounced the same. Bugsy Segal = Bugsy "seagull". Steven Segal = Steven unmitigated "se-gall"
	♥ 1:37am Matt from Springfield: YEAH Your Holiness Blumin! 'Nother Eastern bloc Pope!!!
	1:39am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...altho' sparklers woulda been amusing...ludes mighta kept me from typing altogether...maybe just 'narrrrrrrgggh'... - Whata ya think? Sat. a good FMU night to sleep thru & do your REMs w/ - ?? Gotta know soon: Too pooped to Pope...
	♥ 1:40am Matt from Springfield: DJ "Emeritus Rat Zinger", Fridays noon to 8 pm on Give The Drummer Radio! Gregorian chants and spiritual exegesis mic breaks! E-m in the PM!
	♥ 1:42am Matt from Springfield: SAVOIR FAIRE!!!!!!!!!!! Tres BIENNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!! :D One of the first Family Fodder songs I've ever heard! Are there any Francophones out there who could translate, or at least type out the French chorus lyrics??
	1:46am Wallster: yes you did
	♥ 1:47am Matt from Springfield: And Siouxsie! Warm, jangly Siouxsie! Killin' it tonight Joe!!
	1:48am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I like to think if I don't have Comments open I'm not exactly sleeping w/ everybody @ once - but I suppose everbody tries that excuse...I'll say this once: I did not have Commentsentual relations w/ all those Hipsters...Occasionally people Comment about actual Music played here...I just watched a PBS pledgepleed thing geared to geriatrics who presumably don't know they can watch all that stuff on YouTube (?) of the 60's show 'Hullaballoo': All these great favorite tunes - but my gawd they look awful! Pro go-go girls/models amazing tho' - & Dionne Warwick was frankly kinda amazing...Siouxsee likes The Beatles: She must be Old...
	♥ 1:48am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, Matt, pour yourself a stiff one Holly. Family Fodder on Fresh to become Jungle and have Mercury Rev 'till Sony offered big bucks.
	♥ 1:49am Joe McG: Thanks, Matt! Hey, Brian!
	1:51am fleep: Ghetto make stream go flooey
	♥ 1:51am Matt from Springfield: Ooops, there goes the jumping again! :O
	♥ 1:51am Matt from Springfield: @fleep: No wonder it's tough, living in the ghetto...
	♥ 1:52am Tome: ..hamster in the server again .. bummer,,,,,
	♥ 1:52am Matt from Springfield: There, it's back again!
	♥ 1:52am Tome: yea GOT HIM :D
	♥ 1:52am Brian in UK: Bad remix?
	1:52am Parq: Signal's breaking up for me, too. Jeff M, running an iPad via home wireless router plugged into Verizon Fios. Ah, strong signal just kicked back in again.
	1:53am Holly in NC: I've got single file, some decent red wine, and am settling to reread Jesse Jarnow's most excellent Yo La Tengo bio. I like things that I know are good when things are bad ;-) Oh noes, Donny Hathaway is stuttering!
	♥ 1:53am Tome: ... good to have the 91.9 signal now too as backup ,, least I won't have to steal wi-fi from the bears up there anymore...
	♥ 1:54am Matt from Springfield: "Hello Melinda Goodbye"! Besides "Signs" my fave 5MEB song. Dig that rhythm!
	♥ 1:54am Brian in UK: A label called 'Lionel'. Love it.
	♥ 1:54am Joe McG: @Matt: This was the original A-side!
	♥ 1:55am Matt from Springfield: @Tome: That's dangerous! Raising your hands high won't scare those bears from attacking you, if they find you've been taking their wifi! @Joe: Well ain't that something! :)
	♥ 1:55am Tome: Wicked Lester == was that Paul Stanley Kiss == on ludes === maybe ..
	♥ 1:56am Joe McG: @Tome: No, no Kiss relationship there.
	1:59am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I don't wanna irritate Catholix - but: He's beloved John Paul's Dogma Bullyman - he was a former Hitler Youth (...'underduress' & - hey! - a long time ago) - he's named - no really!! wait for it!: Rat Zinger! - & altho' chosen by gawd - he quits when the Church is embroiled in child abuse scandal across the entire planet earth. If I made this up you would say what? That's like the President losing the popular vote but winning anyway & being a heavy contender for Worst Ever - or Congress setting up something called a Sequester that's so stooped even they wouldn't do it & they do..as Lennon said re his books - I satire the Church & Government just like everybody else - what else is there - ? - Okay - what the hell FMU - yer so damn catchy & you make me feel good right now - I'll sleep w/ you Eff Emm me I guess...but you know I work weekends right?
	♥ 1:59am Brian in UK: The Honda Quaalude is the relaxing car for you, not as fast as the Prelude but the journey time will fly by. Sink into our plush leather seats and let us do the driving.
	♥ 2:00am Tome: why TY and great set Joe ,, !!!
	♥ 2:01am Brian in UK: Trouble over Bridgewater? (A small town in Somerset, west of England)
	♥ 2:02am Brian in UK: Looking forward to your English sensibilities meeting Amanda's next week, Joe.
	♥ 2:02am Matt from Springfield: @Brian: Oooh, doesn't even feel like I'm moving! And how pretty, I'm seeing a tree in front of the car. Ahhhh...
	♥ 2:03am Matt from Springfield: Painful Star Spangled! Satire on 'Murica, mayhaps?
	♥ 2:03am 12539: Hey, the fmu 45 collection doesn't sound so bad.
	2:04am RevolutionRabbitNov63: Maybe y'all should have Comcast in New Hampshire - no Hamster New Hampshire - !..Oh wait - this sounds like Holly's car doing Star Spangled Banner - that must be wrong...
	♥ 2:05am Matt from Springfield: The NEW français WFMU--WFM Nuit! :) @RRN63: Hamsters on wheels power the streams, if anything I think we need more hamsters. And...perfect time to pitch for them! Mmmmmarathon!
	2:06am Joe B: Hi Joe! great to hear single file on the drive home from work! loved the Madeline Bell cut!
	♥ 2:07am Matt from Springfield: The dying gasps of Holly's car battery...giving a tribute to our batteries in Jeeps and MRAPs serving overseas.
	2:10am Parq: Joe B's here! Okay, everything's in good hands, so I can leave. Good night, all.
	♥ 2:10am Brian in UK: Was it a cunning plan? A plan so cunning it chased ittself down Alice's rabbit hole.
	♥ 2:11am Matt from Springfield: Night, Parq!
	♥ 2:11am Brian in UK: Did you say Acropolis?
	2:15am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Hearing about greater NYC/NJ area is Cultural part of WFMU listening flavor for me: an escape for the ruralite - like KCRW L.A. traffic reports - or WWOZ saying it's 68degrees & what the scene is in N'Orleans... - I can learn French in my sleep...what did I tune to?: funny TSF Jazz Paris has a lotta heavy 4/4 guitar tonight...
	♥ 2:21am Joe McG: @Brian: I have a very cunning plan! It will turn out about as well as they usually do on Blackadder. @Joe B.: Hey Joe!
	2:24am Holly in NC: Loving Alfonso Lovo!
	2:27am fleep: BTW, stream hiccups aside, really entertaining show, Joe.
	2:29am david from ks: ,,,,That last one wazza good one DJJM
	♥ 2:30am Joe McG: Thanks, fleep!
	♥ 2:30am Brian in UK: How is Numero after the storm? Dried out yet? Anyone know.
	♥ 2:32am Joe McG: @Brian: I don't--was Chicago hit hard by the snow?
	♥ 2:33am Brian in UK: Joe, is the Harold & Maude on your profile? So many questions. Can anyone else smell the fresh loaf cooking in our kitchen? More TUBA.
	♥ 2:34am Brian in UK: Ooops, thought Numero was in your neck of the woods.
	♥ 2:34am Joe McG: @Brian: Yep, that's me. I have a thing for older women. I agree: MORE TUBA.
	♥ 2:35am Matt from Springfield: Norton Records is the one in Brooklyn I think...sure hope they were able to salvage a lot of their records!
	♥ 2:37am Joe McG: @Matt: They were able to save some and had a water damage sale with a lot of the others, from what I hear. If Joe B. is still around, he can fill you in. He was on the front lines over there.
	♥ 2:37am Matt from Springfield: It's great when Bands of Gypsies, form Gypsy Bands!
	♥ 2:38am Brian in UK: Thanks Matt, wires crossed here. If you want TUBA, then Rob's premium is for you.
	♥ 2:39am Matt from Springfield: Ah, "I Have So Much More to Tell You But You Cannot Bear It Now". If you're going to make the title long, make it worth the while!
	♥ 2:42am Brian in UK: Could be a bracketed title, like Satisfaction.
	♥ 2:44am Joe McG: Jozef van Wissem always has such great titles.
	2:48am Joe B: wow, this is AMAZING!
	♥ 2:48am Brian in UK: Ever thought, 'Now there's a handsome custard'
	♥ 2:51am Brian in UK: All these 'new' old records. Townes 'n Jimi out this week.
	♥ 2:51am Joe McG: @Brian: Yeah, Reissue Heaven is what we live in. It's good to rediscover.
	♥ 2:52am Matt from Springfield: "Rainy Day Resolution (Nos. 12 & 35)" @Brian/Joe: I love how even when something's not new new, it can still be old new!
	♥ 2:54am Brian in UK: Best, (only) good thing about CDs. I have discovered so much music through comps.
	♥ 2:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening everyone! There is no more...tune in next week for fundraising fun and give us your money.
	♥ 2:56am Brian in UK: Good luck Joes.
	♥ 2:56am Matt from Springfield: Already sent over some money to adopt a fixture with! :) And still much more to come! :D Thanks Joe! Have a good night/day everyone!
	2:57am Joe B: great show!

I dunno. @dknight23, may I ask who's your internet provider? If a problem crops up again, there might be a correlation. But right now it all seems as smooth as the knot in Gentleman Joe's bow tie.
	♥ 1:04am Joe McG: Thanks for checkin' it out, Jeff M! Many thanks from Joe M!
	1:05am ?: had issues too, Jeff. using Comcast here. just had to restart Winamp a few times
	1:06am jeff-m: whoops that was me ^^^
	♥ 1:07am dknight23: Internet via Cox Communications. Didn't think of that. Jeff, Thanks for checking.
	♥ 1:07am 12539: I had issues too, Verizon. All's well since somewhere late in the Relatives song.
	1:08am Holly in NC: Hi Joe & all! Car battery died so had to walk home (luckily only mile or thereabouts), but since after midnight & carrying 3 heavy bags I am quite grouchy and tired. Will be a quiet but appreciative listener once I get settled. You're coming through fine on sprint android, so yay for small favors!
	♥ 1:09am Joe McG: Wow, Holly, what a drag!
	♥ 1:15am Matt from Springfield: Hey Joe, and Cosmic Travelers of Radio! @Holly: Ooof! Hope you have better luck with your car!
	1:16am Jeff: Huh. Yeah, I came to this party after everyone was having the skip-fest, so my hearing no problems isn't so meaningful. Sounds as if people on multiple carriers were having troubles, so presumably whatever the problem was was farther upstream than that, but either not as far upstream as our servers or not for long enough that our network monitoring caught it. I don't think I can nail it down tightly right now... so I'll just hope that the musical ship sails on okay from here, and toddle off.
	♥ 1:17am Joe McG: Fingers crossed, Jeff. Thanks again! Hey, Matt, welcome to the blipfest!
	♥ 1:19am Matt from Springfield: Seems I missed the touch-and-go earlier! But, glad to come in on this Cosmic Travelers!
	♥ 1:23am Matt from Springfield: Good segue on the acid rock! The Numero Group always BRINGS IT!
	♥ 1:23am dknight23: stream/feed/whatever has been perfect last 20-25 minutes. thx!
	♥ 1:23am osvi: Mmmmmmmarathon time! I wish you guys the best, Joe McGasko. Had to put in a quick pledge and get me that kitty cat t-shirt! Give till it hurts!
	1:24am Holly in NC: Yeah, I have triple A, but my mechanic not open til Monday & don't want to waste tow, so will try & get a jump to hobble home tomorrow and then get tow if necessary. Pretty sure it's necessary. Battery definitely predates 2007 & may date to 1996... Show is excellent, just what I needed to calm down. Thank you, Joe, very much.
	♥ 1:24am Joe McG: Thanks, osvi! Much appreciate the pledges!
	♥ 1:30am Matt from Springfield: Why HellO! Daniel Blumin!
	♥ 1:31am Matt from Springfield: Ludes+wine+sparklers+1:30 am+radio = FUN! Go 4 IT! ;)
	1:31am RevolutionRabbitNov63: Comcast in hyperborean New Hampshire & no Surface Noise other than intended - presumably came in after the extra Special FX...Mercury Retrograde but when in Pisces why try'n make sense anyway...everybody tells me I'm lucky I don't drive but I don't see the beeatches walkin' w/ me...isn't FMU nice to come home to Holly?...I know WFMU doesn't love me yet - but I think I already want to marry it - & after only two months together - I just want to be w/ it all the time!...should I try to sleep w/ it tonight?; it's such a ruff & unpredictable sort - or play hard to get & sleep w/ some chill stream of Jazz or Indian music? Maybe it would respect me more in the end...
	1:34am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Probably still better than just wine w/out even dinner: My last Thursday Archived forever...gotta do it sometimes...
	♥ 1:35am Matt from Springfield: Evening, RRN63! WFMU can play hard to get several times a day, but ultimately the attraction is mutual, and you'll be in bed with WFMU soon enough! In fact, we're ALL in bed with WFMU right now! But it's a bed big enough for us all...a bed as grand and breathtaking as Kevin Ayers "Crystal Clear" music bed ! :)
	♥ 1:37am Matt from Springfield: Jason Sigal = WFMU's, Jason Segel = Apatow actor, pronounced the same. Bugsy Segal = Bugsy "seagull". Steven Segal = Steven unmitigated "se-gall"
	♥ 1:37am Matt from Springfield: YEAH Your Holiness Blumin! 'Nother Eastern bloc Pope!!!
	1:39am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...altho' sparklers woulda been amusing...ludes mighta kept me from typing altogether...maybe just 'narrrrrrrgggh'... - Whata ya think? Sat. a good FMU night to sleep thru & do your REMs w/ - ?? Gotta know soon: Too pooped to Pope...
	♥ 1:40am Matt from Springfield: DJ "Emeritus Rat Zinger", Fridays noon to 8 pm on Give The Drummer Radio! Gregorian chants and spiritual exegesis mic breaks! E-m in the PM!
	♥ 1:42am Matt from Springfield: SAVOIR FAIRE!!!!!!!!!!! Tres BIENNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!! :D One of the first Family Fodder songs I've ever heard! Are there any Francophones out there who could translate, or at least type out the French chorus lyrics??
	1:46am Wallster: yes you did
	♥ 1:47am Matt from Springfield: And Siouxsie! Warm, jangly Siouxsie! Killin' it tonight Joe!!
	1:48am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I like to think if I don't have Comments open I'm not exactly sleeping w/ everybody @ once - but I suppose everbody tries that excuse...I'll say this once: I did not have Commentsentual relations w/ all those Hipsters...Occasionally people Comment about actual Music played here...I just watched a PBS pledgepleed thing geared to geriatrics who presumably don't know they can watch all that stuff on YouTube (?) of the 60's show 'Hullaballoo': All these great favorite tunes - but my gawd they look awful! Pro go-go girls/models amazing tho' - & Dionne Warwick was frankly kinda amazing...Siouxsee likes The Beatles: She must be Old...
	♥ 1:48am Brian in UK: Hello Joe, Matt, pour yourself a stiff one Holly. Family Fodder on Fresh to become Jungle and have Mercury Rev 'till Sony offered big bucks.
	♥ 1:49am Joe McG: Thanks, Matt! Hey, Brian!
	1:51am fleep: Ghetto make stream go flooey

	♥ 1:52am Tome: yea GOT HIM :D
	♥ 1:52am Brian in UK: Bad remix?
	1:52am Parq: Signal's breaking up for me, too. Jeff M, running an iPad via home wireless router plugged into Verizon Fios. Ah, strong signal just kicked back in again.
	1:53am Holly in NC: I've got single file, some decent red wine, and am settling to reread Jesse Jarnow's most excellent Yo La Tengo bio. I like things that I know are good when things are bad ;-) Oh noes, Donny Hathaway is stuttering!
	♥ 1:53am Tome: ... good to have the 91.9 signal now too as backup ,, least I won't have to steal wi-fi from the bears up there anymore...
	♥ 1:54am Matt from Springfield: "Hello Melinda Goodbye"! Besides "Signs" my fave 5MEB song. Dig that rhythm!
	♥ 1:54am Brian in UK: A label called 'Lionel'. Love it.
	♥ 1:54am Joe McG: @Matt: This was the original A-side!
	♥ 1:55am Matt from Springfield: @Tome: That's dangerous! Raising your hands high won't scare those bears from attacking you, if they find you've been taking their wifi! @Joe: Well ain't that something! :)
	♥ 1:55am Tome: Wicked Lester == was that Paul Stanley Kiss == on ludes === maybe ..
	♥ 1:56am Joe McG: @Tome: No, no Kiss relationship there.
	1:59am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...I don't wanna irritate Catholix - but: He's beloved John Paul's Dogma Bullyman - he was a former Hitler Youth (...'underduress' & - hey! - a long time ago) - he's named - no really!! wait for it!: Rat Zinger! - & altho' chosen by gawd - he quits when the Church is embroiled in child abuse scandal across the entire planet earth. If I made this up you would say what? That's like the President losing the popular vote but winning anyway & being a heavy contender for Worst Ever - or Congress setting up something called a Sequester that's so stooped even they wouldn't do it & they do..as Lennon said re his books - I satire the Church & Government just like everybody else - what else is there - ? - Okay - what the hell FMU - yer so damn catchy & you make me feel good right now - I'll sleep w/ you Eff Emm me I guess...but you know I work weekends right?
	♥ 1:59am Brian in UK: The Honda Quaalude is the relaxing car for you, not as fast as the Prelude but the journey time will fly by. Sink into our plush leather seats and let us do the driving.
	♥ 2:00am Tome: why TY and great set Joe ,, !!!
	♥ 2:01am Brian in UK: Trouble over Bridgewater? (A small town in Somerset, west of England)
	♥ 2:02am Brian in UK: Looking forward to your English sensibilities meeting Amanda's next week, Joe.
	♥ 2:02am Matt from Springfield: @Brian: Oooh, doesn't even feel like I'm moving! And how pretty, I'm seeing a tree in front of the car. Ahhhh...
	♥ 2:03am Matt from Springfield: Painful Star Spangled! Satire on 'Murica, mayhaps?
	♥ 2:03am 12539: Hey, the fmu 45 collection doesn't sound so bad.
	2:04am RevolutionRabbitNov63: Maybe y'all should have Comcast in New Hampshire - no Hamster New Hampshire - !..Oh wait - this sounds like Holly's car doing Star Spangled Banner - that must be wrong...
	♥ 2:05am Matt from Springfield: The NEW français WFMU--WFM Nuit! :) @RRN63: Hamsters on wheels power the streams, if anything I think we need more hamsters. And...perfect time to pitch for them! Mmmmmarathon!
	2:06am Joe B: Hi Joe! great to hear single file on the drive home from work! loved the Madeline Bell cut!
	♥ 2:07am Matt from Springfield: The dying gasps of Holly's car battery...giving a tribute to our batteries in Jeeps and MRAPs serving overseas.
	2:10am Parq: Joe B's here! Okay, everything's in good hands, so I can leave. Good night, all.
	♥ 2:10am Brian in UK: Was it a cunning plan? A plan so cunning it chased ittself down Alice's rabbit hole.
	♥ 2:11am Matt from Springfield: Night, Parq!
	♥ 2:11am Brian in UK: Did you say Acropolis?
	2:15am RevolutionRabbitNov63: ...Hearing about greater NYC/NJ area is Cultural part of WFMU listening flavor for me: an escape for the ruralite - like KCRW L.A. traffic reports - or WWOZ saying it's 68degrees & what the scene is in N'Orleans... - I can learn French in my sleep...what did I tune to?: funny TSF Jazz Paris has a lotta heavy 4/4 guitar tonight...
	♥ 2:21am Joe McG: @Brian: I have a very cunning plan! It will turn out about as well as they usually do on Blackadder. @Joe B.: Hey Joe!
	2:24am Holly in NC: Loving Alfonso Lovo!

	♥ 2:30am Joe McG: Thanks, fleep!
	♥ 2:30am Brian in UK: How is Numero after the storm? Dried out yet? Anyone know.
	♥ 2:32am Joe McG: @Brian: I don't--was Chicago hit hard by the snow?
	♥ 2:33am Brian in UK: Joe, is the Harold & Maude on your profile? So many questions. Can anyone else smell the fresh loaf cooking in our kitchen? More TUBA.
	♥ 2:34am Brian in UK: Ooops, thought Numero was in your neck of the woods.
	♥ 2:34am Joe McG: @Brian: Yep, that's me. I have a thing for older women. I agree: MORE TUBA.
	♥ 2:35am Matt from Springfield: Norton Records is the one in Brooklyn I think...sure hope they were able to salvage a lot of their records!
	♥ 2:37am Joe McG: @Matt: They were able to save some and had a water damage sale with a lot of the others, from what I hear. If Joe B. is still around, he can fill you in. He was on the front lines over there.
	♥ 2:37am Matt from Springfield: It's great when Bands of Gypsies, form Gypsy Bands!
	♥ 2:38am Brian in UK: Thanks Matt, wires crossed here. If you want TUBA, then Rob's premium is for you.
	♥ 2:39am Matt from Springfield: Ah, "I Have So Much More to Tell You But You Cannot Bear It Now". If you're going to make the title long, make it worth the while!
	♥ 2:42am Brian in UK: Could be a bracketed title, like Satisfaction.
	♥ 2:44am Joe McG: Jozef van Wissem always has such great titles.
	2:48am Joe B: wow, this is AMAZING!
	♥ 2:48am Brian in UK: Ever thought, 'Now there's a handsome custard'
	♥ 2:51am Brian in UK: All these 'new' old records. Townes 'n Jimi out this week.
	♥ 2:51am Joe McG: @Brian: Yeah, Reissue Heaven is what we live in. It's good to rediscover.
	♥ 2:52am Matt from Springfield: "Rainy Day Resolution (Nos. 12 & 35)" @Brian/Joe: I love how even when something's not new new, it can still be old new!
	♥ 2:54am Brian in UK: Best, (only) good thing about CDs. I have discovered so much music through comps.
	♥ 2:55am Joe McG: Thanks for listening everyone! There is no more...tune in next week for fundraising fun and give us your money.
	♥ 2:56am Brian in UK: Good luck Joes.
