	9:26am glenn: thanks rev. good stuff.
	9:26am earrie: I saw a robin in a nearby tree on very cold day (- XX °C) in Southern Ontario over the weekend. Change in daylight leads the seasons.
	9:26am Guido (Cologne): bibi on tablet? I need a tester for my CSS-work! (just kidding)
	9:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - love that RH from '63, my birth year - w/ space capsule & convertible - really speaks of the era...
	9:28am glenn: you were in southern ontario and didn't call? sheeesh.
	9:31am listener james from westwood: this wagner cut always reminds me of that film "excalibur."
	9:31am Guido (Cologne): Hamilton ist interesting technical-wise (mix of oil-phorealism / collage / print). We had an retrospective here some ten years ago or so. Did you know that the artwork for Beatles White Album is by him. Conception was to create a counter-part to Sgt. Pepper. (Sgt. Pepper is by Peter Blake, so both are by major Pop-Art-artists.)
	9:32am earrie: heh, glenn. Next time I'm in TO, I'll offer to buy you a GTD-gear thank you beer over a hockey final.
	9:33am glenn: root beer, please. i'm a non drinker.
	9:34am Guido (Cologne): pronounced: ub-sheed = farewell
	9:34am bibi: trouble, you will have trouble with guido !
	9:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - didn't put it together; funny how one hears Peter Blake's name all the time - but even the Beatles association doesn't make Richard Hamilton's name that familiar; - have to mention then the Richard Chang project to buy White Albums : rutherfordchang.com... - he speculates that maybe the staining & decoration what-have-you that would happen to the White Album are what Hamilton had in mind in the 1st place... ...Dogs to Wolves also a synchronicity, as I grew up w/ a husky & was just looking @ wolf-husky mixes online this A.M. ...
	9:40am bobdoesthings: ahhh digging this, thanks trouble
	9:41am P-90: Hi DJ Trouble! sweet set so far
	9:41am earrie: Sure. Rhyming with gear is coincidence.
	9:44am P-90: @Rev: Scorpio boy grew up with a husky? M 0r F? How old were you when you got the dog? In NH? I grew up with a German shepherd, right here in NYC, later joined by another one (and a bunch of Siamese cats)
	9:45am fred von helsing: arriving late... had to watch the finnish womens hockey team whomp them pesky rooskies
	9:47am Guido (Cologne): I know about the White Album and hamilton only because of a visit to Beatles Museum in Hamburg. To me it is weird why this lack of credit about the cover art. Maybe legal reasons.
	9:47am P-90: @fred: Ahoy! always glad to see the Rooshins go down, once a child of the Cold War, always one, I guess
	9:47am glenn: putin's not going to be very happy when the men's team doesn't even make the medal round.
	9:48am P-90: @ glenn: mwah ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!
	9:49am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @P-90: I was maybe - 10? M dawg, NH yes. Huskies quite different from Shepherds. @Guido: - & /or just the Minimalist nature of 'The White Album' cover - altho' it's actually loaded w/ photos & lyrics inside.
	9:50am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Putin made need to take his shirt off & get in there himself...
	9:52am Trouble: oh yeah the finnish women beat the russians! great to hear. that is an old school rivalry...
	9:52am P-90: REv: I find their temperaments similar, huskies more laid back, less obsessively vigilant, maybe vs. shepherds Ive had friends and relatives who had various dog breed/wolf mixes, sad to say I'm not impressed
	9:53am glenn: john, yoko and photography. news.nationalpost.com...
	9:55am bibi: i like this dub thing. singular.
	9:57am van: Oh, hey trouble
	9:57am P-90: @DJ Trouble: I saw some awesome art this week that made me think of you specifically, you might really get into what it is; maybe even choose some for a playlist page... OK to post a link to your FB page? Or better to use FMU DJ-mail?
	10:00am Trouble: P-90, sure! facebook page is cool. thanks for thinking of me
	10:02am fred von helsing: yup now the russian team can go down to the sochi police station and smuggle some solidarity firewater to the pussy riot gals
	10:03am P-90: @Trouble: you know how you see something cool and immediately think of one or two people whose tastes you're a little familiar with, like this is one for them to check out? This was one of those type of a-ha moments, I'll post later today, see what you think
	10:04am P-90: "Solidarity Firewater" my forthcoming album
	10:05am P-90: or brand of boutique small-batch vodka?
	10:05am bibi: bon chic bon genre.
	10:07am fred von helsing: "Solidarity Firewater" label has Lech Walenska toasting Nadya while in the background Putin on a unicorn is leaping off a cliff
	10:08am P-90: shirtless
	10:09am common: sounds good from here, trouble.
	10:09am bobdoesthings: au bon pain?
	10:09am bibi: trouble, my former 'keyboardist' used to do that 'bip' sound while rehearsing loud. we kicked him out of the band. watch out ;)
	10:09am Patrick: ugh, i hate leaving the coffee at home!!
	10:10am fred von helsing: one mistake was that the russian army had no intermediate levels of mobilisation. it was all or nothing. germany freaked out. everybody armed to the teeth. light fuse.
	10:13am fred von helsing: yes shirtless Putin. we gotta capture the female demographic too. or is it the male ?
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like - looking @ the Cold War Balance of Doom we used to decry w/ retrospective nostalgia - ?...
	10:14am bibi: i always thought CBGB was a reference to BCBG... total failure.
	10:14am P-90: Yeah, but then modern Western consumer culture started to seep into Berlin, the Commies were exposed to it and got hooked, after that there was no going back. See Billy Wilder's fabulous and criminally overlooked "One, Two, Three"
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...someone to shame us - we need you Big Brother...
	10:16am P-90: @Fred, Nadya scanty-clad for male demo, shirtless Putin for female demo, prominently ungelded unicorn for the urban gay demo
	10:18am Guido (Cologne): ... Northern Soul ... ... i miss the cold-war discussion here ... .... "One, Two, Three" ... is brilliant ... ... thing was, when it was about to be distributed to the theatres the Berlin wall was built, that killed the movie ... at the time. ... ask ken he shall play some more of that "Funky Communist Stuff" ... hehehe ...
	10:18am upstatesean: hey trouble, great music as usual!
	10:22am fred von helsing: another gateway for western influences was finnish tv. it was the only non-commie tv signal that could be captured in the western ussr. folks in estonia hacked antennas and recorded stuff. "estonians were the only soviets that knew that lech walenska had a moustache." the ussr was full of tapes of western movies with finnish subtitles. a cool techie footnote to the cold war.
	10:24am βrian: Bonjour, auditeurs perdus !
	10:24am fred von helsing: cherchez le poulet
	10:25am Sem Chumbo: Oui, c'est chouette, c'est chouette.
	10:25am Guido (Cologne): To USSR-people, the GDR, Poland, CSSR were "the west" ... i have been told.
	10:26am P-90: fred: fascinating tidbits re: Noble freedom-loving Finns/Godless Russkies
	10:27am fred von helsing: goin' toe-to-toe across the gulf. i took a boat ride over in 1987, stayed one night in the ussr, it was SO freakin' weird.
	10:28am Trouble: check the facebook page: i put a link up to soundcloud for this duo, really interesting stuff www.facebook.com...
	10:28am Guido (Cologne): awesome stuff
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you are gonna make me link to 'How The Beatles Rocked the Kremlin' : www.youtube.com... - again - seriously - ??...
	10:30am Guido (Cologne): ANNA CALVI !!!
	10:30am fred von helsing: ANNA!
	10:31am Guido (Cologne): @fred what adventure is this???? ... Anna ... other version ...
	10:32am fred von helsing: the new warpaint and calvi are def hittin' good spots in de soul. but there's a consensus that the savages albums kinda blows even if they're amazing live.
	10:34am fred von helsing: @guido Well, you know, I can't really talk about it cough cough Years later finnish newspapers reported on the kgb surveillance center in the hotel (it's a small informal museum now, in a middle floor in the hotel viru) so i know damned well they were listening in to the yanqui and his girlfriend :-O
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In the military, Johnny Cash did the job of listening to Russian broadcasts !
	10:37am bobdoesthings: ahh this is great
	10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that's quite an experience to reflect on fred.
	10:43am Guido (Cologne): @fred ... understand too well.
	10:44am fred von helsing: i'm one of the few yanquis to have seen the evil empire. OK it was estonia, not the core, but still it was pretty scary/amazing. i've been traveling to estonia a lot since right after the revolution, i've seen it change, it's nifty and heartening.
	10:47am Andrew Waterloo: All I can say is I've seen that movie the Lives of Others and would actually be more surprised when they didn't spy on foreigners. I remember the building of the US embassy and how they eventually had to build a secure structure withing the embassy because the Russians had planted so many bugs during construction.
	10:50am Guido (Cologne): I travelled the Ukraine, but early post-soviet time. But certain agents were still active, interviewing my hosts after I left. ... dark times ...economically ... people going to work not getting paid.. ... weird "Businessmen" ... postmen stealing mail ...
	10:50am AndrewC.: Russia has a border with Norway too. But I guess the TV signal wasn't so strong way up there.
	10:50am earrie: Breaking trust isn't a very smart long term strategy.
	10:51am fred von helsing: The US now has much much stronger surveillance powers than the Rooskies EVER did. What could possibly go wrong ?
	10:51am earrie: Who benefits from broken trust? Fucking assholes, that's who.
	10:52am common: i concur fred. scary times.
	10:52am fred von helsing: @andrewC I'm sure there were no civilians there. Even now there are very tight controls on the entire region bordering Finland.
	10:55am fred von helsing: Speaking of Norway: CHICKENS! lh3.ggpht.com...
	10:55am Guido (Cologne): ... that ole cypress hill ...
	10:57am bibi: they also got biathlets up there. dammit.
	11:00am bibi: this guy sounds a bit like blixa speaking french.
	11:03am Parq: Joining late. Hi, all. Really dig today's visual art post.
	11:06am Guido (Cologne): ... nono i love cypress hill, just memories ..
	11:07am still b/p: Speaking of Norway, Viking apocalypse is 2/22. Give it a Google.
	11:10am fred von helsing: they put the mercury in the retrograde and they drank it all up
	11:11am Andrew Waterloo: Oh darn, "when New Age sounds fantastic" was my "when hell freezes over"
	11:11am glenn: the viking apocalypse??? excellent.
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Re ☿Mercury Retrograde - I like this Astrology site: www.stariq.com...
	11:12am Guido (Cologne): inner planet retrogrates differ from outer planet retrogrades
	11:13am van: This is nice
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Guido: elaborate !
	11:15am fred von helsing: hey so what happened to cibo matto last week ?
	11:21am Guido (Cologne): @RRN63 The lines they seem to "draw" look different. Outer planets: Earth is faster. Inner planets 8harder to observe): Earth is slower.
	11:22am Guido (Cologne): cibo matto : "exhausted" as Liz said.
	11:25am van: Marissa!
	11:27am van: I really love this brand new album by Marissa. Thanks for playing her
	11:28am Guido (Cologne): JULY! There is hope!
	11:31am Trouble: fred von helsing: that chicken statue: c'est fantastique
	11:38am fred von helsing: bien sûr !
	11:41am SeanG: sexy sounds
	11:41am Brian in UK: Guess you folks have already seen this, just in case....... www.funnyjunk.com...
	11:43am Cubicle Carl: I think I had this theoretical girls song on a ROIR cassette.
	11:44am Trouble: that is funny brian in UK!
	11:54am bibi: this bassline has been scientifically approved.
	11:54am gina k: I now have to dance
	11:58am Sem Chumbo: There I was thinking Duane's show had started a day early. All is clear now.
	11:58am Trouble: ciao kitties! thanks for listening, see you next week!
	11:58am Guido (Cologne): Thanks for the great show Trouble!
	11:59am fred von helsing: any finns here ? I have a chicken group on faceborg, tervetuloa
	12:00pm bobdoesthings: thanks trouble!
	3:17pm johnbonavia: Excellent sound..Good start.

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	10:03am P-90: @Trouble: you know how you see something cool and immediately think of one or two people whose tastes you're a little familiar with, like this is one for them to check out? This was one of those type of a-ha moments, I'll post later today, see what you think
	10:04am P-90: "Solidarity Firewater" my forthcoming album
	10:05am P-90: or brand of boutique small-batch vodka?
	10:05am bibi: bon chic bon genre.
	10:07am fred von helsing: "Solidarity Firewater" label has Lech Walenska toasting Nadya while in the background Putin on a unicorn is leaping off a cliff
	10:08am P-90: shirtless
	10:09am common: sounds good from here, trouble.
	10:09am bobdoesthings: au bon pain?
	10:09am bibi: trouble, my former 'keyboardist' used to do that 'bip' sound while rehearsing loud. we kicked him out of the band. watch out ;)
	10:09am Patrick: ugh, i hate leaving the coffee at home!!
	10:10am fred von helsing: one mistake was that the russian army had no intermediate levels of mobilisation. it was all or nothing. germany freaked out. everybody armed to the teeth. light fuse.
	10:13am fred von helsing: yes shirtless Putin. we gotta capture the female demographic too. or is it the male ?
	10:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...like - looking @ the Cold War Balance of Doom we used to decry w/ retrospective nostalgia - ?...
	10:14am bibi: i always thought CBGB was a reference to BCBG... total failure.
	10:14am P-90: Yeah, but then modern Western consumer culture started to seep into Berlin, the Commies were exposed to it and got hooked, after that there was no going back. See Billy Wilder's fabulous and criminally overlooked "One, Two, Three"
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...someone to shame us - we need you Big Brother...
	10:16am P-90: @Fred, Nadya scanty-clad for male demo, shirtless Putin for female demo, prominently ungelded unicorn for the urban gay demo
	10:18am Guido (Cologne): ... Northern Soul ... ... i miss the cold-war discussion here ... .... "One, Two, Three" ... is brilliant ... ... thing was, when it was about to be distributed to the theatres the Berlin wall was built, that killed the movie ... at the time. ... ask ken he shall play some more of that "Funky Communist Stuff" ... hehehe ...
	10:18am upstatesean: hey trouble, great music as usual!
	10:22am fred von helsing: another gateway for western influences was finnish tv. it was the only non-commie tv signal that could be captured in the western ussr. folks in estonia hacked antennas and recorded stuff. "estonians were the only soviets that knew that lech walenska had a moustache." the ussr was full of tapes of western movies with finnish subtitles. a cool techie footnote to the cold war.
	10:24am βrian: Bonjour, auditeurs perdus !
	10:24am fred von helsing: cherchez le poulet
	10:25am Sem Chumbo: Oui, c'est chouette, c'est chouette.
	10:25am Guido (Cologne): To USSR-people, the GDR, Poland, CSSR were "the west" ... i have been told.
	10:26am P-90: fred: fascinating tidbits re: Noble freedom-loving Finns/Godless Russkies
	10:27am fred von helsing: goin' toe-to-toe across the gulf. i took a boat ride over in 1987, stayed one night in the ussr, it was SO freakin' weird.
	10:28am Trouble: check the facebook page: i put a link up to soundcloud for this duo, really interesting stuff www.facebook.com...
	10:28am Guido (Cologne): awesome stuff
	10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you are gonna make me link to 'How The Beatles Rocked the Kremlin' : www.youtube.com... - again - seriously - ??...
	10:30am Guido (Cologne): ANNA CALVI !!!
	10:30am fred von helsing: ANNA!
	10:31am Guido (Cologne): @fred what adventure is this???? ... Anna ... other version ...
	10:32am fred von helsing: the new warpaint and calvi are def hittin' good spots in de soul. but there's a consensus that the savages albums kinda blows even if they're amazing live.
	10:34am fred von helsing: @guido Well, you know, I can't really talk about it cough cough Years later finnish newspapers reported on the kgb surveillance center in the hotel (it's a small informal museum now, in a middle floor in the hotel viru) so i know damned well they were listening in to the yanqui and his girlfriend :-O
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: In the military, Johnny Cash did the job of listening to Russian broadcasts !
	10:37am bobdoesthings: ahh this is great
	10:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - that's quite an experience to reflect on fred.
	10:43am Guido (Cologne): @fred ... understand too well.
	10:44am fred von helsing: i'm one of the few yanquis to have seen the evil empire. OK it was estonia, not the core, but still it was pretty scary/amazing. i've been traveling to estonia a lot since right after the revolution, i've seen it change, it's nifty and heartening.
	10:47am Andrew Waterloo: All I can say is I've seen that movie the Lives of Others and would actually be more surprised when they didn't spy on foreigners. I remember the building of the US embassy and how they eventually had to build a secure structure withing the embassy because the Russians had planted so many bugs during construction.
	10:50am Guido (Cologne): I travelled the Ukraine, but early post-soviet time. But certain agents were still active, interviewing my hosts after I left. ... dark times ...economically ... people going to work not getting paid.. ... weird "Businessmen" ... postmen stealing mail ...
	10:50am AndrewC.: Russia has a border with Norway too. But I guess the TV signal wasn't so strong way up there.
	10:50am earrie: Breaking trust isn't a very smart long term strategy.
	10:51am fred von helsing: The US now has much much stronger surveillance powers than the Rooskies EVER did. What could possibly go wrong ?
	10:51am earrie: Who benefits from broken trust? Fucking assholes, that's who.
	10:52am common: i concur fred. scary times.
	10:52am fred von helsing: @andrewC I'm sure there were no civilians there. Even now there are very tight controls on the entire region bordering Finland.
	10:55am fred von helsing: Speaking of Norway: CHICKENS! lh3.ggpht.com...
	10:55am Guido (Cologne): ... that ole cypress hill ...
	10:57am bibi: they also got biathlets up there. dammit.
	11:00am bibi: this guy sounds a bit like blixa speaking french.
	11:03am Parq: Joining late. Hi, all. Really dig today's visual art post.
	11:06am Guido (Cologne): ... nono i love cypress hill, just memories ..
	11:07am still b/p: Speaking of Norway, Viking apocalypse is 2/22. Give it a Google.
	11:10am fred von helsing: they put the mercury in the retrograde and they drank it all up
	11:11am Andrew Waterloo: Oh darn, "when New Age sounds fantastic" was my "when hell freezes over"
	11:11am glenn: the viking apocalypse??? excellent.
	11:11am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Re ☿Mercury Retrograde - I like this Astrology site: www.stariq.com...
	11:12am Guido (Cologne): inner planet retrogrates differ from outer planet retrogrades
	11:13am van: This is nice
	11:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: @Guido: elaborate !
	11:15am fred von helsing: hey so what happened to cibo matto last week ?
	11:21am Guido (Cologne): @RRN63 The lines they seem to "draw" look different. Outer planets: Earth is faster. Inner planets 8harder to observe): Earth is slower.
	11:22am Guido (Cologne): cibo matto : "exhausted" as Liz said.
	11:25am van: Marissa!
	11:27am van: I really love this brand new album by Marissa. Thanks for playing her
	11:28am Guido (Cologne): JULY! There is hope!
	11:31am Trouble: fred von helsing: that chicken statue: c'est fantastique

	11:41am SeanG: sexy sounds
	11:41am Brian in UK: Guess you folks have already seen this, just in case....... www.funnyjunk.com...
	11:43am Cubicle Carl: I think I had this theoretical girls song on a ROIR cassette.
	11:44am Trouble: that is funny brian in UK!
	11:54am bibi: this bassline has been scientifically approved.
	11:54am gina k: I now have to dance
	11:58am Sem Chumbo: There I was thinking Duane's show had started a day early. All is clear now.
