	👻 3:02pm rrg: Playlist updated live!
	3:02pm Brendan from Rockville: Irrrrrrrrwinnnnnnnnnnn!
	3:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Fuck Off !
	👻 3:04pm rrg: Same to you, fella.
	👻 3:05pm rrg: 59% raised!
	3:06pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I wonder if this was one of those proverbial Old Ladies they give Guinness to in institutions in Ireland...
	3:06pm Sean D. Daily: Not sure if that letter is the most depressing thing I've ever read or the best thing I've ever read, or if it's even real. Also hello all.
	3:08pm Parq: Just dropping in to say that my copy of "Jazz Messengers" arrived on Monday and it's just as terrific as I anticipated it would be. Maybe even better, because the audio fidelity is exceptionally high for a CDR. Well worth my donation.
	👻 3:08pm rrg: Has to be real. Look at the old typewriter font, the creased paper, the stains. Has to be real.
	3:10pm Caryn: @RRN63: ooh, not so proverbial. During my stint in the old folks' home in the UK, we had our old lady with her nightly Guinness. Then again, they used to regularly subscribe it to all patients in hospitals in the old days (because of the iron).
	3:11pm ChrisB.: Wow, Balancing Act. There's something you don't hear every day. Thought they'd be bigger, then just vanished.
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that was The Pixies? Or just Pixies - someone else?...
	3:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Guinness for Strength !
	👻 3:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: We should all be so lucky to get a transistor radio (or the functional equivalent of the time) when we're 97.
	3:14pm Caryn: The old lady who wrote the letter reminds me of one of the ladies in the home, who said that when she died, she wanted to be reborn as a seagull, so she could fly over people she didn't like and crap on them. Ah, the elderly...
	3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - new Pixies !
	3:18pm Laura L: AAAAIIIIEEEEEEE!
	👻 3:18pm rrg: You have the whole Judson Fountain catalogue. I have none of it.
	3:19pm Caryn: The things you learn from tv. That Ingmar Bergman liked Woody Allen movies and "The Omen": not surprising. That he loved "The Blues Brothers" and old Hammer horrors like "Blood from the Mummy's Tomb": a bit of a surprise.
	3:19pm Sean D. Daily: Why am I not surprised that you're a Metal Machine fan, Irwin?
	3:20pm Peanut Gallery: Garbage can from Thailand!
	3:24pm Caryn: I missed Ken's show today, but was it just the "Lulu" album played over and over again?
	3:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Caryn: he played only 'Junior Dad' - which was beautiful.
	👻 3:30pm Ken From Hyde Park: @Caryn - Just "Junior Dad" and then a set of typewriter music and also Khlam.
	3:31pm common: junior dad was great this morn.
	3:33pm Caryn: Thanks for the info, RRN63 & Ken from HP!
	3:35pm kirk from beer city usa: my mind just split open
	3:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that's how you get the bad stuff out...
	3:37pm Caryn: You know how some guy at a concert always has to go, "Freebird!"? We don't get that here. We get "Play 'Paranoid'!" (Maybe that's another symptom of the higher status of metal music here...) Found out this morning that October is "Play 'Paranoid'!" month this year. I wonder if Irwin would play some version of "Paranoid", if requested? Lou Reed didn't record a version only found on an obscure bootleg, did he?
	3:39pm Mike: You know this is really bad? Or does this supposed to be Good?
	3:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: No - it's supposed to be bad awlright! : )
	3:41pm Mike: I like his solo stuff
	3:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...now I got a heart again I don't feel guilty ...but I'm back to thinkin' it looks dopey!...
	3:47pm Droll: How fascinating: In Finland, "Paranoid" has the same status as Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird" in the United States as a song the audience finds great humour to request during a concert. So regardless of the band or the style of music they're playing "Soittakaa Paranoid!" ("Play Paranoid!") can usually be heard at least once during any gig. -- Wikipedia I believe the Freebird thing in the US dates back to the "Freedom Rock" K-Tel compilation ("Is that Freedom Rock, man?" Yes. "Well, turn it up, man!"). I wonder how the Finnish thing started...
	3:48pm Irwin: We're wrapping up the fundraiser this week. Anyone out there planning to pledge but hasn't gotten around to it? Please hit the widget at the top of the playlist. Thanks!
	3:50pm Caryn: I might be able to scrounge up a small pledge. I'll have to have another look at the mailer WFMU sent out.
	3:50pm crateslinger: "What song is i you wanna hear?" And the crowd goes "FREEBIRD" is off the double live album "One More from the Road" and they played it like that on the radio as a single. Still makes me cry...
	👻 3:50pm rrg: Did you have to prepare the bleeps yourself ahead of time, or did someone else do that for you? Like, is there a station library of bleeped versions of songs?
	3:51pm Irwin: Did 'em at home. My bleep is a special recipe.
	👻 3:52pm rrg: My brownies are like that.
	3:52pm Irwin: Any pledge at all will tip the support level for this program to 60%. Go for it. You'll experience a wonderfully warm feeling.
	3:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - no one remembers, but there were garage band standards - great songs w/ a few chords that anyone could & would bash out if you'd only just set up instruments w/ some other losers in the garage or basement; 'Paranoid' was one of these - Sabbath had this status of Folk Music - 'Communication Breakdown' by Zep was another...'Smells Like Teen Spirit' came pretty close to this for a few months...
	3:58pm Mike East: Smells like Teen Spirit was the first song I figured out how to play on bass guitar.
	3:59pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - exactly MikeE.
	👻 3:59pm rrg: The idea is to take us right up to 4pm.
	👻 4:00pm rrg: And it worked.
	4:02pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Me: Do you like Jazz? Friend: If they don't know where they'er going, why should I care? Me: They know - they're just in no hurry to get there! Someone: 'A Craftsperson knows what they're going to end up w/ ahead of time - an Artist doesn't.'
	4:05pm Mike East: oh I love this episode!
	4:06pm Parq: "Freebird" was preceded by "Whippen' Post". Legend has it that some guy was so taken by the call-out of that name in the middle of Gregg introducing said song on the fourth side of the Fillmore album ("Uh, you guessed it!" answers a momentarily flustered Gregg) that he started doing it at every show he attended, until other people started picking up on it. Yelling Whippen' Post became a fad ca. 1973 and continued until supplanted by "Free Bird". I'm told that this is why Zappa covered Whippen' Post -- to shut the cat-callers up.
	4:12pm glenn: not as good as ed anger's america, but not bad.
	4:13pm Peteski: I have a feeling that things might go awry
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he would shout 'Freebird!' to a band that wasn't there...
	4:25pm Peteski: I had a dream last night that I was working with James Gandolfini and was debating whether or not to tell him that I knew when and how he was going to die.
	👻 4:27pm G: aww crap, i was out -- where was this episode on the grim-tragedy-of-life scale?
	👻 4:28pm G: it's ok, i just figured it out.
	👻 4:37pm G: music hath charms to soothe the savaged joe frank listener.
	4:37pm Droll: G, With Joe Frank, on the scale of 1-10, it always at least 11.
	4:37pm Dick: Peteski were you working on a mini-series or something, or in a kitchen or gardening or on the railways etc?
	👻 4:38pm G: this one always goes to 11.
	4:38pm Carmichael: I'm just hangin' and chillin', listenin' to you youngins talk about oldies music, Like Nirvana and Black Sabbath.
	4:39pm Caryn: @Droll & RRN63: you know, there's a comedy series where one episode featured a cop tasked with cleaning riff-raff off the streets because an international delegation came to town. He solved it partly by shooing away all buskers who refused to play "Paranoid". He kept around the one busker who agreed to play it, even though it was unrecognisable. Can't find a subtitled video online, dammit.
	4:39pm Laura L: Boo! When you gonna play some Judson Fountain? I have to leave early (at 5:15)... Consider this a second to PG's request for the Garbage Can from Thailand!
	4:42pm Peanut Gallery: Oh joy!
	4:43pm Laura L: Oh, even better--Don Brockway's drammer. Thanks, Irwin!
	👻 4:44pm rrg: This one!
	4:45pm Peanut Gallery: Legumes for Judson!
	4:45pm Carmichael: Hey, this dude sounds like my previous post. Curmudgeonly!
	4:46pm Caryn: "Get off my property!" Hmm, almost like the classic "Damn kids, get off my lawn!"
	👻 4:46pm G: i once had a dog who was a mudgeonly cur
	4:47pm Robert: I'm hearing all these jabs at Rich Conaty that I didn't recognize when it 1st aired.
	4:48pm Irwin: @Robert: I think Don had Danny Stiles in mind.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this is like Firesign Theatre on PCP & 'ludes...
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& what higher praise could there be...
	👻 4:49pm rrg: Speaking of the Boswell Sisters: on a YT post I made (years ago) of a Fleischer Bros. Screen Song cartoon featuring The Mills Brothers, a couple of people have recently been arguing back and forth about who's better, The Mills Brothers or the Boswell Sisters. I don't have a strong opinion on the matter.
	👻 4:50pm rrg: 73% raised!
	👻 4:51pm G: sing along with mitch, you bitch
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - is that who The Triplets of Belleville are based on - ??...
	👻 4:52pm rrg: witch
	👻 4:52pm rrg: Be fair.
	4:53pm Carmichael: I think I'M on PCP.
	👻 4:54pm G: a pinch of this a pinch of that a dewey button and a french fried bat
	4:54pm Jan: Irwin's Halloween Special by Judson Fountain. For decades now, a seasonal classic, much like the beloved It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
	4:54pm Robert: rrg, nothing is ever raised on this program, only further lowered.
	4:54pm Caryn: You know, theres' a 1.5-hour documentary on LSD on tv right now. This makes me feel like I really don't need to watch it.
	4:54pm Droll: Carm, HA! I was just thinking the right way to measure this drammer (like you can measure and rank Joe Frank episodes) was micrograms of PCP!
	👻 4:55pm G: ok, mag fields...
	4:56pm Carmichael: Is this the Danny Kapoi Trio?
	4:57pm Laura L: And Judson wasn't seen again... spooky, isn't it...
	👻 4:58pm rrg: And the Codger wasn't seen again! For two weeks.
	4:58pm common: that's a great note from mary. just saw it.
	👻 4:59pm G: maybe judson fountain sprung a serious leak
	👻 4:59pm G: a leaking fountain needs closure
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Judson Fountain's America...
	👻 5:01pm G: A440 next week. i can take it :)
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...can I interest you in a Joe Fountain or a Judson Frank? No?...
	👻 5:03pm G: frankly, no.
	5:04pm northguineahills: I'm not sure why, but I really like The Passionate & Objective Jokerfan.
	5:04pm Caryn: Time for dinner: 3 slices of old pizza and my beloved Xmas apple soda (the one Xmas thing I'm glad is in the shops early).
	👻 5:05pm rrg: A little later for dinner in your neck of the woods, Caryn.
	👻 5:06pm rrg: I like it when the eggnog starts showing up in the stores.
	5:06pm Caryn: @rrg: yep. On the other hand, since we turned the clocks back on Sunday, it's an hour earlier than it would've been last week.
	👻 5:07pm rrg: Our clocks turn back this Sunday, but I'm sure you know that, being so in tune with North American time zones and all that.
	5:08pm Droll: Jokerfan accurately captures the excitement of hearing your own songs on the radio, especially when the music isn't commercially viable. I have great respect for him and his music.
	5:08pm northguineahills: Yeah, being that Caryn is omniscient.
	5:09pm Caryn: @rrg: hah! I think the space in my memory banks that should handle that info is full of movie trivia.
	👻 5:10pm rrg: I liked it much better when Daylight Saving Time started on the last Sunday in April and ended on the last Sunday in October. Before the imbeciles started fucking with it. Actually I'd be happier if the clocks never changed at all in this way. But I don't feel strongly enough to move to a place where that's the case.
	👻 5:12pm rrg: You have TWO brothers? Or was that a metaphor?
	5:12pm Caryn: @rrg: we have the switch steadily on the last Sunday of March and October.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Caryn: Just imagine it's a movie... rrg: Exactly - change the time if you must - but change the time you change the time? Now yer just messin'...
	5:13pm Carmichael: Move to Africa, rrg. The clocks haven't changed for 500 years.
	👻 5:15pm rrg: Right. The US started fucking with it in the 1970s, and until 2007, the rest of the world went along with it. But then (the last change moved it at both ends) the rest of the world said, "Enough is enough." Except for Canada, of course. Enough is never enough for them.
	👻 5:16pm rrg: Do they have clocks in Africa yet?
	5:16pm Sean D. Daily: Soooooo i'm guessing this song is about her right hand man?
	5:17pm Carmichael: Only in Rhodesia, the big grandfather kind. Now that it's Zimbabwe, they refer to them as Devil Machines.
	5:18pm Irwin: Can we hit 100% by 6:00? Any pledge welcome. Pledge for Joe Frank, Judson Fountain, Lee Morgan, the Old Codger, who- or whatever. Thank ye.
	👻 5:22pm rrg: 78% raised!
	👻 5:25pm rrg: I always get my food advice from schoolchildren.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: Hey, that's not fair.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: On the other hand it is really funny.
	👻 5:30pm rrg: I heard that AG walks around America. Coast to coast. Something loony like that. But interesting.
	5:32pm Caryn: AG talking about grooving and rock, I'm tempted to guffaw. But some of his points he's making are actually good.
	5:34pm Carmichael: If I had a van, I'd loan it to Art Garfunkel.
	5:34pm Droll: If I had a van, I'd van in morning, I'd van in the evening, all over this land. Not like that washout Artie who walks everywhere.
	5:35pm sweet cheri: hiya irwin & caryn, happy halloween!!
	5:36pm Caryn: I prefer AG walking everywhere. I don't need him roaming the land in some creepy van looking like Buffalo Bill from "Silence of the Lambs".
	5:37pm Rick from SC: this sure reminds me of ELP
	5:38pm Carmichael: Yeah Rick, I was about to say Jimmy Carl Emerson.
	5:39pm Droll: Rick, "Startling resemblance" is the legal term. And yes, the Prog Police have been alerted.
	5:41pm Caryn: It's a miracle that Ken didn't pull the plug when he heard the proggy music.
	5:41pm Carmichael: Black was involved with Zappa and the Mothers, so he could well be legally exempt from arrest.
	5:42pm Carmichael: Ya Caryn, but he lets Andy play the Eagles. There's no accounting for taste these days.
	5:48pm Caryn: No "Paranoid" yet. Of course, most weeks, the Joe Frank segment would cover paranoia pretty well. But this week was damn near chipper for JF, so that wasn't exactly a substitute.
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - nice drums on 'Morgantown'
	5:53pm Irwin: www.noahpreminger.com
	5:55pm Droll: In college I had a roommate who listened to a LOT of Grateful Dead, and my favorite part of any of the tapes he collected was a fight between Jerry and a fan who was yelling out "Play Truckin'!" the entire show. Jerry eventually breaks down and says "What? You gotta be a COP, man?" and some audience member yells out "Why don't YOU play Truckin'", as if that's an actual solution. Eventually the band breaks into a very fast version of the song.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Wait! Does that clock say what I think it says! It does. Time to leave. Our main drain is blocked. But that's another story. Bye, all. Thanks, Irwin.
	5:58pm Carmichael: Nice work, Jokerfan. Self-chorus.
	👻 5:58pm rrg: 80% raised!

Legend has it that some guy was so taken by the call-out of that name in the middle of Gregg introducing said song on the fourth side of the Fillmore album ("Uh, you guessed it!" answers a momentarily flustered Gregg) that he started doing it at every show he attended, until other people started picking up on it. Yelling Whippen' Post became a fad ca. 1973 and continued until supplanted by "Free Bird". I'm told that this is why Zappa covered Whippen' Post -- to shut the cat-callers up.
	4:12pm glenn: not as good as ed anger's america, but not bad.
	4:13pm Peteski: I have a feeling that things might go awry
	4:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he would shout 'Freebird!' to a band that wasn't there...
	4:25pm Peteski: I had a dream last night that I was working with James Gandolfini and was debating whether or not to tell him that I knew when and how he was going to die.
	👻 4:27pm G: aww crap, i was out -- where was this episode on the grim-tragedy-of-life scale?
	👻 4:28pm G: it's ok, i just figured it out.
	👻 4:37pm G: music hath charms to soothe the savaged joe frank listener.
	4:37pm Droll: G, With Joe Frank, on the scale of 1-10, it always at least 11.
	4:37pm Dick: Peteski were you working on a mini-series or something, or in a kitchen or gardening or on the railways etc?
	👻 4:38pm G: this one always goes to 11.
	4:38pm Carmichael: I'm just hangin' and chillin', listenin' to you youngins talk about oldies music, Like Nirvana and Black Sabbath.
	4:39pm Caryn: @Droll & RRN63: you know, there's a comedy series where one episode featured a cop tasked with cleaning riff-raff off the streets because an international delegation came to town. He solved it partly by shooing away all buskers who refused to play "Paranoid". He kept around the one busker who agreed to play it, even though it was unrecognisable. Can't find a subtitled video online, dammit.
	4:39pm Laura L: Boo! When you gonna play some Judson Fountain? I have to leave early (at 5:15)... Consider this a second to PG's request for the Garbage Can from Thailand!
	4:42pm Peanut Gallery: Oh joy!
	4:43pm Laura L: Oh, even better--Don Brockway's drammer. Thanks, Irwin!
	👻 4:44pm rrg: This one!
	4:45pm Peanut Gallery: Legumes for Judson!
	4:45pm Carmichael: Hey, this dude sounds like my previous post. Curmudgeonly!
	4:46pm Caryn: "Get off my property!" Hmm, almost like the classic "Damn kids, get off my lawn!"
	👻 4:46pm G: i once had a dog who was a mudgeonly cur
	4:47pm Robert: I'm hearing all these jabs at Rich Conaty that I didn't recognize when it 1st aired.
	4:48pm Irwin: @Robert: I think Don had Danny Stiles in mind.
	4:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...this is like Firesign Theatre on PCP & 'ludes...
	4:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& what higher praise could there be...
	👻 4:49pm rrg: Speaking of the Boswell Sisters: on a YT post I made (years ago) of a Fleischer Bros. Screen Song cartoon featuring The Mills Brothers, a couple of people have recently been arguing back and forth about who's better, The Mills Brothers or the Boswell Sisters. I don't have a strong opinion on the matter.
	👻 4:50pm rrg: 73% raised!
	👻 4:51pm G: sing along with mitch, you bitch
	4:52pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - is that who The Triplets of Belleville are based on - ??...
	👻 4:52pm rrg: witch
	👻 4:52pm rrg: Be fair.
	4:53pm Carmichael: I think I'M on PCP.
	👻 4:54pm G: a pinch of this a pinch of that a dewey button and a french fried bat
	4:54pm Jan: Irwin's Halloween Special by Judson Fountain. For decades now, a seasonal classic, much like the beloved It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.
	4:54pm Robert: rrg, nothing is ever raised on this program, only further lowered.
	4:54pm Caryn: You know, theres' a 1.5-hour documentary on LSD on tv right now. This makes me feel like I really don't need to watch it.
	4:54pm Droll: Carm, HA! I was just thinking the right way to measure this drammer (like you can measure and rank Joe Frank episodes) was micrograms of PCP!
	👻 4:55pm G: ok, mag fields...
	4:56pm Carmichael: Is this the Danny Kapoi Trio?
	4:57pm Laura L: And Judson wasn't seen again... spooky, isn't it...
	👻 4:58pm rrg: And the Codger wasn't seen again! For two weeks.
	4:58pm common: that's a great note from mary. just saw it.
	👻 4:59pm G: maybe judson fountain sprung a serious leak
	👻 4:59pm G: a leaking fountain needs closure
	5:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Judson Fountain's America...
	👻 5:01pm G: A440 next week. i can take it :)
	5:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...can I interest you in a Joe Fountain or a Judson Frank? No?...
	👻 5:03pm G: frankly, no.
	5:04pm northguineahills: I'm not sure why, but I really like The Passionate & Objective Jokerfan.
	5:04pm Caryn: Time for dinner: 3 slices of old pizza and my beloved Xmas apple soda (the one Xmas thing I'm glad is in the shops early).
	👻 5:05pm rrg: A little later for dinner in your neck of the woods, Caryn.
	👻 5:06pm rrg: I like it when the eggnog starts showing up in the stores.
	5:06pm Caryn: @rrg: yep. On the other hand, since we turned the clocks back on Sunday, it's an hour earlier than it would've been last week.
	👻 5:07pm rrg: Our clocks turn back this Sunday, but I'm sure you know that, being so in tune with North American time zones and all that.
	5:08pm Droll: Jokerfan accurately captures the excitement of hearing your own songs on the radio, especially when the music isn't commercially viable. I have great respect for him and his music.
	5:08pm northguineahills: Yeah, being that Caryn is omniscient.
	5:09pm Caryn: @rrg: hah! I think the space in my memory banks that should handle that info is full of movie trivia.
	👻 5:10pm rrg: I liked it much better when Daylight Saving Time started on the last Sunday in April and ended on the last Sunday in October. Before the imbeciles started fucking with it. Actually I'd be happier if the clocks never changed at all in this way. But I don't feel strongly enough to move to a place where that's the case.
	👻 5:12pm rrg: You have TWO brothers? Or was that a metaphor?
	5:12pm Caryn: @rrg: we have the switch steadily on the last Sunday of March and October.
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Caryn: Just imagine it's a movie... rrg: Exactly - change the time if you must - but change the time you change the time? Now yer just messin'...
	5:13pm Carmichael: Move to Africa, rrg. The clocks haven't changed for 500 years.
	👻 5:15pm rrg: Right. The US started fucking with it in the 1970s, and until 2007, the rest of the world went along with it. But then (the last change moved it at both ends) the rest of the world said, "Enough is enough." Except for Canada, of course. Enough is never enough for them.
	👻 5:16pm rrg: Do they have clocks in Africa yet?
	5:16pm Sean D. Daily: Soooooo i'm guessing this song is about her right hand man?
	5:17pm Carmichael: Only in Rhodesia, the big grandfather kind. Now that it's Zimbabwe, they refer to them as Devil Machines.
	5:18pm Irwin: Can we hit 100% by 6:00? Any pledge welcome. Pledge for Joe Frank, Judson Fountain, Lee Morgan, the Old Codger, who- or whatever. Thank ye.
	👻 5:22pm rrg: 78% raised!
	👻 5:25pm rrg: I always get my food advice from schoolchildren.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: Hey, that's not fair.
	👻 5:27pm rrg: On the other hand it is really funny.
	👻 5:30pm rrg: I heard that AG walks around America. Coast to coast. Something loony like that. But interesting.
	5:32pm Caryn: AG talking about grooving and rock, I'm tempted to guffaw. But some of his points he's making are actually good.
	5:34pm Carmichael: If I had a van, I'd loan it to Art Garfunkel.
	5:34pm Droll: If I had a van, I'd van in morning, I'd van in the evening, all over this land. Not like that washout Artie who walks everywhere.
	5:35pm sweet cheri: hiya irwin & caryn, happy halloween!!
	5:36pm Caryn: I prefer AG walking everywhere. I don't need him roaming the land in some creepy van looking like Buffalo Bill from "Silence of the Lambs".
	5:37pm Rick from SC: this sure reminds me of ELP
	5:38pm Carmichael: Yeah Rick, I was about to say Jimmy Carl Emerson.
	5:39pm Droll: Rick, "Startling resemblance" is the legal term. And yes, the Prog Police have been alerted.
	5:41pm Caryn: It's a miracle that Ken didn't pull the plug when he heard the proggy music.
	5:41pm Carmichael: Black was involved with Zappa and the Mothers, so he could well be legally exempt from arrest.
	5:42pm Carmichael: Ya Caryn, but he lets Andy play the Eagles. There's no accounting for taste these days.
	5:48pm Caryn: No "Paranoid" yet. Of course, most weeks, the Joe Frank segment would cover paranoia pretty well. But this week was damn near chipper for JF, so that wasn't exactly a substitute.
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - nice drums on 'Morgantown'
	5:53pm Irwin: www.noahpreminger.com
	5:55pm Droll: In college I had a roommate who listened to a LOT of Grateful Dead, and my favorite part of any of the tapes he collected was a fight between Jerry and a fan who was yelling out "Play Truckin'!" the entire show. Jerry eventually breaks down and says "What? You gotta be a COP, man?" and some audience member yells out "Why don't YOU play Truckin'", as if that's an actual solution. Eventually the band breaks into a very fast version of the song.
	👻 5:57pm rrg: Wait! Does that clock say what I think it says! It does. Time to leave. Our main drain is blocked. But that's another story. Bye, all. Thanks, Irwin.
	5:58pm Carmichael: Nice work, Jokerfan. Self-chorus.
	👻 5:58pm rrg: 80% raised!
