WFMU: Irwin Chusid: Playlist from February 19, 2014

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 3:03pm rrg: Not necessarily a bad thing, but probably.
	🎸 ♥ 3:05pm rrg: That bat roost has to be British. Doesn't it? I can't read the fine print, though.
	3:05pm Michael: That picture is crazy.
	♥ 3:06pm SSS: Finally! A proper church for bats! So civilized.........
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bats are good. Socialize BatCare.
	3:07pm Listening Out There: Even more drums. This drummer lives in Switzerland, last I heard...
	♥ 3:08pm common: Yea! Love bats and drums and synths!
	♥ 3:09pm mariano: Wow, love me some Billy Cobham. The opening from Mahavishnu's "Vital Transformation" is the most kick-ass drum intro ever!
	3:09pm Michael: Cobham played at my college around '77 with George Duke and I remember he had quite a large kit for back then.
	3:09pm Laura L: The municipality must've put the cross on top to keep the vampire variety of bats away.
	3:12pm P-90: OK: "Bat-ROOST". --Thought for for a second it was like the town's smoke-house, "BatRoast"
	3:12pm Listening Out There: I've seen Billy Cobham 4-5 times, and he always he a large kit. Large muscles, too.
	3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...these here Batz is Sanctified !! ...They're probably just exploiting the Worker Bats for guano to make Munitions...
	3:13pm Droll: It looks like there's a human-sized door on the front, but no stairs leading to it. This signage 30ft in the air also suggests something missing from this picture's story. Not sure how to properly praise Mr. Cobham's combination of technique and taste...
	3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a veritable Guano-tanimo...
	3:15pm Droll: LoT, I've never seen Cobham live, but I've seen Dennis Chambers and his arms are as thick as my legs. Same kinds of explosions of speed. Great to watch.
	3:16pm Kirill: Stratus? I thought it's Hedrix melody
	3:16pm berbo: Are you sleeping? And if so, why are we sleeping. It OK, they're only sleeping.
	🎸 ♥ 3:17pm rrg: Between last week and this I got this album. I rather like it, don't you know. It's not the only Nilsson tribute album, but it's...the most recent.
	3:18pm Woo: I saw Mott the Hoople open for Mahavishnu Orchestra. Someone threw a bottle at Ian Hunter. After he jumped off the stage and kicked ass, Mott's set was over. I miss those incongruous pairings.
	3:19pm glenn: ian could probably still kick ass, at what, 72?
	3:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& there's a perfectly symmetrical pairing...
	3:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...down the memory hole...
	3:20pm Listening Out There: Similar: One time I saw the Mahavishnu Orchestra, the opener was Taj Mahal. He introduced his backup singers, the Pointer Sisters.
	3:20pm P-90: Saw B. Cobham I-don't-know-how many times (including w/the underrated Jazz is Dead combo) and he was always very muscular and big-kitted.
	3:20pm glenn: i think the bat roost is in texas. i saw that pic elsewhere recently.
	3:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - there's the famous bridge in Austin 1,000s of bats fly out from under every sunset - they migrate from Mexico...Austin is a very 'Batman' city...
	3:24pm mariano: Wow, wish I'd been able to see Mahavishnu, especially with the openers y'all mentioned.
	♥ 3:25pm Chingadera Con Queso: I am in love with this!
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm rrg: Yes, the bat roost is in San Antonio. Found the original image (a little higher-res): www.shorpy.com...
	♥ 3:26pm joe: The Pointer Sisters popped up in some crazy places in history.
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - obvious question - did Pat have any idea people associate the 'rails' w/ lines of coke...or is he 'meta' to that, mahhn...
	3:27pm Droll: [ Searching fruitlessly to find the name of the arranger of Crazy Train ] Love it or hate it, whoever arranged this nailed it.
	3:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah !
	3:28pm Listening Out There: Great site, Shorpy is. I look at their stuff via RSS.
	3:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Link no worky rrg : (
	🎸 ♥ 3:28pm rrg: "His cover of Ozzy Osbourne's Crazy Train would later serve as the theme song for Ozzy's reality show, The Osbournes. His effort to give rock songs a swing treatment was imitated later by his contemporary Paul Anka in the album Rock Swings."
	♥ 3:28pm common: yes pat, you're insane.
	🎸 ♥ 3:30pm rrg: Link works for me, RRN63.
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm rrg: If I could post an actual picture here, I would.
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mahvishnu-Mayfield-Zappa !
	3:31pm P-90: yeah, looks like a human-size door up there, but no stairs is no biggie if access is only required for once-yearly inspection or in case of a fire or something (see BATROAST) ...thanks for the Shorpy link, I got curious and dried blowing up the playlist image, too low-rez to see details or read the signs ...um Shorpy link not opening for me
	3:33pm P-90: NO JOE TWO WKS in a row?! whatta gyp! oh, OK, excerpts, fine-- better than nada
	3:33pm Listening Out There: http://www.shorpy.com/
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm rrg: It's working for me but I'll try again: www.shorpy.com...
	3:34pm glenn: oh boy. the atheist in me isn't sure whether to laugh or cry.
	3:34pm Droll: Requested Joe Frank clip to re-hear: "Pull my pants down and slap me with your Punishing Rod. SAY IT! LOUDER!" I read all those episodes are real!
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...try this : www.shorpy.com... ...I was right - they knew good guano when they saw it...
	3:35pm Listening Out There: If you see "Always Something Interesting," you're there. :)
	3:35pm P-90: "TRIED blowing" : this iPad app doesn't always store my changes, frustratiating...
	♥ 3:35pm Sem Chumbo: @rrg: I have the Shorpy rss feed. It is fine but I get a page not found error on your link:(
	♥ 3:37pm Sem Chumbo: OK, RevRab: never go to the home page, just read the feed day to day. Thx.
	3:37pm Listening Out There: "Maybe a DNS issue?" is my usual answer with site-not-found issues. Sometimes it's actually right...
	🎸 ♥ 3:37pm rrg: If you modify the link in the browser to explicitly stick "http://" in front of it, it seems to work. Might be something to do with how this site modifies links for display. Or maybe it's more subtle.
	♥ 3:37pm KevinfromBayRidge: Good Afternoon all. Saw Mahavishnu open for The Byrds & Blue 0yster Cult @ Stony Brook in the early 70s. No Pennywhistlesor Poets ..All good!
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm rrg: Not a DNS issue. I don't think.
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm rrg: Laugh, glenn.
	♥ 3:39pm mariano: Mars Audiac! Been a while!
	3:39pm Listening Out There: Googling "Shorpy photos" will also getcha there...
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...geez - these bills !; people somewhat to slightly older than me saying they saw Hendrix for $2 or whatever: if you keep talking, I'll have to kill us all @rrg: I got Safari - it adds http://, but it don't open...
	♥ 3:41pm mariano: Mahavishnu and BOC? Just seeing those two names together makes me feel like I'm tripping!
	🎸 ♥ 3:41pm northguineahills: Yeah, that's a fave Stereolab of mine.
	3:43pm Droll: rrg is right, if humans agree to speak computerese and correct the link, then the computer shows you the picture. Computers love cookies, I'll bet Kenzo ate the cookies and that's why the computer link is broken: envious computer.
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...of course - those people just like to say they saw Hendrix as a Stratus Symbol...
	🎸 ♥ 3:44pm rrg: I'm using Safari too. Clicking on the link as displayed here returns a page with the text "page not found" from the Shorpy site. Explicitly adding "http://" at the front of the Safari-displayed URL goes to the page. I swear. For me, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm rrg: This is one of those songs that I recognize from the first couple of notes. Take me back to Constantinople.
	3:47pm P-90: OK, "mosquito control" in times of much malaria. On stilts to "facilitate the harvesting of guano by the truckload". Yum. The "stilts" look at first glance like they're 4 by 4's and the whole thing is like a little dollhouse bat-roost. Then you see the little dude. On closer look the stilts are concrete poured in plywood molds, which captures the wood grain patterns on the surface. "Guano by the truckload": remember the 2012 Republican Debates?
	3:50pm whattawino: OK, I have to say I saw a show in Orlando '72 with Mahavishnu, Todd Rundgren and...George Carlin! It was end of the year college show. Yow!
	3:51pm Listening Out There: The demographics of this program. Who'd a thunk it?
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm rrg: My goodness we're an old lot here. Where did all the youngsters go? Like MattFromSpringfield? And Caryn?
	3:52pm glenn: i don't think it's concrete. the joints where the beams meet the posts is too defined.
	3:52pm P-90: @rrg: shows my perfect score for avoiding the Osbournes reality show, I had no idea the Pat Boone cover was the theme. We're doing so much RIPing lately; I'm still RIPing Randy Rhoads
	3:52pm glenn: are too defined.
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm rrg: And I saw the Stones in Candlestick Park for $17 in October of 1981. And I was patted down before I was able to enter the park, and it offended me, though I laughed about it at the time.
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Alison Porchnik: I prefer Ron Jeremy's version.
	♥ 3:56pm Mike East: I think I know the original that he's covering...I like this much better. much more passion and feeling
	3:57pm Listening Out There: I heard "Incorrect Music" on WFMU in 2002. It cost me my sanity...
	♥ 3:57pm common: does ron jeremy really do a cover of that, alison?
	3:58pm P-90: I've paid a lot more than $17 for a good pat-down. But figuring for inflation...
	3:59pm Droll: If IceJJfish can't make money on YouTubez, he'll make a bundle selling T-shirts. All bands get rich as apparel companies nowadays.
	3:59pm glenn: suppressing urge to make joke about ron jeremy covering something.
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: The bat roost picture didn't look too remarkable until I noticed the dude standing within it. He must be rich; rich like kings of Europe, from the bat guano.
	3:59pm 67tele: I have a Wreckin Ball song, it was wrote about 25 years before hers: soundcloud.com/1958chevy/wreckin-ball
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm sure in 1981 you exuded a particularly threatening air rrg...
	4:02pm LovecraftDude888: he's also an expert climber and mountaineer to shamble up that gigantic wooden rig!
	4:03pm glenn: uh. i'm willing to bet whoever took the photo also moved the ladder away.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: $17 & I'll bring the ladder back !
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that was a fortune in guano in those days...
	4:05pm glenn: he's not that comfortable up there, or he'd be standing in the middle away from the column.
	4:06pm LovecraftDude888: I'd be freaking out....don't like heights and standing on 1 ft. or under wooden posts! bats don't bother me.
	🎸 ♥ 4:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Nearly 100 years ago, 4012 pounds of guano - webecoist.momtastic.com...
	4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you're a Goth - duh...
	♥ 4:07pm Irwin: George Benson guitar on this Morgan tune
	4:08pm Listening Out There: Gads. There's actually a recording label called Incorrect Music. Irwin must know that...
	4:08pm glenn: well, if he's 6 feet tall, that centre beam is maybe 13 feet above grade.
	4:08pm Ronald Jeremy®: Hey, this looks like a cool podcast and everything, how is everybody today? I heard someone was using my name here without permission? Come on, play fair, my name is all I have to sell. What is this anyway? I'm a huge Mahavishnu fan! Shakti too! Of course they were never as good after John kicked Jan Hammer out. What's this got to do with me? What's the average age on here, like about 70 or something (just teasing you guys)
	4:08pm LovecraftDude888: true..ye olde punk goth mod. guy. too old to be a goth but don't wanna be sad olde goth either. that is no fun
	4:09pm zzz: sweet track. I was going to ask if this was grant green but I love early benson
	4:09pm glenn: maybe 16 feet.
	4:09pm Droll: C'mon ye olde fartes, let's hear about how you saw Lee Morgan play three sets and then do a pickup gig at an after-hours club -- all for the cost of a bottle of whiskey ($4). Check this out -- the media is STILL painting jazz musicians as hipster dopers: www.nydailynews.com...
	4:10pm the glowing one: they're not?
	4:12pm LovecraftDude888: Droll...i saw Charlie Parker in 1940 at...no i didn't. Anyway, yeah reading up on the Vineberg connex. what a farce. I've heard about some other connex. today with PSH's rehab but I cannot talk about it...but basically it confirmed for me how widespread the problem is in downtown NYC and musician world for sure. It's omnipresent. I mean not just musicians,...all else.
	4:13pm Listening Out There: Never saw Lee Morgan. :) Did see Art Blakey a coupla times, though...
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: Vineberg was an orig. James Chance and Contortions member supposedly. I always heard most of those no wave people were total junkies anyway. I dunno.
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: In a way I'm glad I was too young for that scene at that time, I might've ended up dead etc.
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: what about Alain Delon's forehead?
	4:16pm Ronald Jeremy®: See? they needed a patsy, so they went and rounded up some "Greenwich Village bohemian"-type Jazz muso with a "$10 a day" "smack addiction" and announced they'd cracked that PSH case WIDE open......fuckin NYPD, they're in a fuckin time warp, they've been binge-watching too many Boardwalk Empire DVDs
	4:16pm Woo: Speaking of Jan Hammer, I saw him with Jeff Beck. Heart was in the middle and Boston was the opener. 1977. I think the power went out at one point.
	4:18pm P-90: Heart was in the middle? Both Wilsons? I've had that fantasy since 1978
	4:19pm LovecraftDude888: but not with Boston involved....urghh
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - okay - I've seen Jeff Beck in my era - blew my mind - but when I saw him on the bill w/ Stevie Ray Vaughan - he had Terry Bozzio drumming - & I was shouting for Terry, I tell yoo what...
	4:20pm LovecraftDude888: Vineberg is def. a dealer, 300 bags for his own use? haha right!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you & everyone P-90...
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm rrg: Here's that JF bed music.
	♥ 4:22pm joe: Doug where is Doug anybody see Doug?
	♥ 4:23pm Carmichael: RR, I saw that same SRV/Beck tour in Sacramento. I went with a bunch of shitkickers who were hog caiiling for Stevie Ray. It was worth the price of admission to see Beck blow 'em all out of the arena. Also RRG, I think I was at that stones concert in SF. Did the Neville Brothers open for 'em?
	4:24pm Laura L: Can't hear this Can without thinking of Joe Frank.
	4:24pm P-90: #Rev: I caught that tour too, at the Dr. Pepper pier summer series on the Hudson, good show that night. You weren't by any chance the guy sitting in the row in front of me with a hot Latina chick, you were wearing a long brown ponytail, braided, with like fresh baby's breath woven into it? That wasn't you was it? That would trip me out right now man
	4:25pm berbo: I feel like selling some defective bibles.
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I should be so lucky P-90! I saw it in LA when I lived in Santa Barbara - we were bummed we got tickets so late we were behind the stage - but it turned out right behind it ! - w/ Bowie sitting right below us & staring into Bonnie Raitt & people in the front row...
	4:26pm glenn: the best part of seeing jeff beck these days is tal.
	4:26pm P-90: THE loop
	4:28pm glenn: heart and boston together i can see, but jeff beck? i often wonder who puts these shows together. the ramones opened for ted nugent in toronto once. it was a debacle.
	4:28pm LovecraftDude888: isn't that the type of thing that Antonin Artaud did? the glosso. action....
	🎸 ♥ 4:29pm rrg: @Carmichael: I don't remember that (Neville Bros.) and I don't actually remember who opened for them, but the Internet suggests it was J. Geils and/or George Thorogood.
	4:29pm LovecraftDude888: need more laudanum..brb
	4:30pm P-90: New Pink Floyd, there's also that band Nachem plays sometimes, Jew Pink Floyd. Different outfit completely, no glossolalia
	4:32pm Shaun(ununun): @P-90, I actually recognized THE loop on the Bible Salesman episode of Joe Frank's last week as an instrumental section of a song from Can's Ege Bamyasi (73') titled 'One More Night'. (?).(?)
	4:32pm LovecraftDude888: ha Klezmer Pink Floyd!
	4:33pm LovecraftDude888: I bought the Can lost tapes...played disc 1 last weekend...need to play rest of it soon
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm rrg: I have a thing about Clara Bow.
	♥ 4:33pm Carmichael: Hey, Martin Newell! I love this song, heard it from your CD/book, Irwin.
	4:34pm P-90: Maybe it'll make the Guinness Book of World Records "Top Ten Episodes of WFMU's Seven Second Delay Program" list. But what would get bumped to make room?
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm rrg: One actually can hear Clara Bow speak. She made a few sound movies.
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love the idea of Twisted Tributes. - yeah - Martin Newell ! ...Beck's done the tour w/ Brian Wilson - Frank's played a bit on Monday A.M. - sounds excellent !!
	♥ 4:35pm Carmichael: Ya know, it could very well have been Thorogood. But I do remember the Nevs opening, perhaps a different concert. I'm older than all of you, and that's all I remember.
	4:35pm P-90: I hear she really had "it".
	4:35pm Shaun(ununun): en.wikipedia.org... : 'Joe Frank used "One More Night" as the score for "The Road To Calvary" from Somewhere Out There.'
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nevs & Stones - I'm down.
	4:36pm LovecraftDude888: there was stray voltage there....14 days of zottt
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but of course I can hardly be satisfied till Jeff Beck & Beck Hansen collaborate...which they certainly could...
	4:39pm P-90: @Shaun: I was certain he used that loop in more than one of his shows. I still sounds like I heard him use it a couple times over the years, wonder if there's way to check that...or maybe he's made a lot of similar-vibe loops for what he does, so it sounds familiar for that reason
	4:42pm glenn: glow in the dark reindeer.news.nationalpost.com...
	4:42pm P-90: Rev: Beck/Hansen/Beck, i got a link to their leaked demo from a couple years back, gimme a minute Wow, Bronwen's got a GREAT singing voice. Oh, wrong Bronwen
	4:44pm LovecraftDude888: it was so foggy here today earlier you couldn't even see a glow in the dark atomic bomb
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Nice little operatic chorus here! And the snow sure is melting! Hi Irwin and everyone! Marathon is upon us!
	4:44pm P-90: I see, very clever, they can see at a glance which deer paid the cover charge.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the further commercialization of Xmas...
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Matt from Springfield: Sounds like a good vacuuming track!
	♥ 4:50pm Irwin: Matt is in the virtual house!
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm Matt from Springfield: And Irwin is apparently not using this track for vacuuming duties! :) Hey Irwin, glad to catch you live today! :D
	🎸 ♥ 4:52pm Matt from Springfield: Oooh! This is the angry actor's nervous breakdown!---This is a classic!
	♥ 4:52pm efd: I love this guy. WHO ARE YOU?!
	♥ 4:53pm mariano: OMG, it's that crazy guy yelling at the poor trumpeter!
	♥ 4:53pm Carmichael: Sounds like a sissified Al Pacino.
	♥ 4:53pm efd: I'm getting this guy to be my week 2 marathon MC so he can berate everyone who hasn't pledged yet.
	♥ 4:53pm mariano: If you see the Youtube clip, he looks like Paul Simon's Mini Me!
	4:54pm Droll: . o O ( I would be flattered if someone cared this much about my music )
	4:54pm LovecraftDude888: I stood in front of SVA once how dare you compare yerself to me! me mem me
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Oh yeah! Al Pacino 33 @ 45!!
	4:54pm hamburger: sounds like a spinoff wurster character?
	4:54pm the glowing one: www.youtube.com...
	4:54pm steve: haha hamburger... he is Wurster-esque!
	♥ 4:55pm Carmichael: "You're all out of order." This whole court is out of order!!!"
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so want wunna them 'I Only Like NY as a Friend' T-Shirts...I walked Dylan onto the stage ! I knew the Grateful Dead before they were millionaires !...
	🎸 ♥ 4:55pm Matt from Springfield: @EFD: "You're NOBODY! You pledged NOTHING! I'm not gonna take this [bleep] from you! Evan's gonna pack his brilliant show up and leave, if you don't show SOME appreciation, you ungrateful bastards!!"
	♥ 4:56pm Carmichael: Thomas is cool. Doesn't he sing the Beatles?
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Matt from Springfield: THOMAS! :D Sung to an 80s karaoke version too, it sounds like.
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he sounds like Paul Simon's mini-me...
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Matt from Springfield: Why yes, Carm! Thomas sings the Beatles, on "Thomas Sings The Beatles", his Irwin/WFMU only album!
	4:57pm Droll: I like Thomas, really, but I think all the reverb masks his articulation. He doesn't need autotune, and he doesn't need all the 'verb.
	♥ 4:57pm efd: @Matt you're my back-up choice if I can't track that guy down.
	🎸 ♥ 4:58pm Matt from Springfield: BACK-UP??! I'm second to THAT guy??! What does he know!!! ;)
	4:58pm LovecraftDude888: makes me wanna hear some Wesley Willis too
	4:59pm Slim_Pickin's: This reminds me I need to get back in to karoke'n !
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Slim: Listen to Thomas' other tracks, and study up on them. He has good karaoke technique.
	5:03pm danjoseph: "Four What"? I know it's a cover of Four Organs
	♥ 5:04pm mariano: Bet you are that kinda guy, sicko!
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...is the cucumber thing supposed to make up for no Joe Frank - ??...
	🎸 ♥ 5:05pm rrg: Four Optigans.
	5:05pm glenn: yes i have. cucumber, fennel and endive salad, with rice wine vinegar and sesame oil dressing. it was damn tasty.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Matt from Springfield: Anti-cuke protest broken up, by policemen wielding large zucchini..
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Alison Porchnik: Best riff ever
	♥ 5:07pm Andrew Waterloo: a member of the gourd family, it's a cylindrical fruit used as a culinary vegetable.
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm rrg: Sure, but he also did a good riff on grilled salmon once.
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it has seed inside it - it's a fruit - & that's law & order bub...
	5:09pm glenn: anybody got any 8 tracks they wanna get rid of? toronto.en.craigslist.ca...
	♥ 5:09pm Andrew Waterloo: I had an argument with someone who believed that the small zucchinis in grocery store were the only size they came in.
	🎸 ♥ 5:10pm rrg: What?
	5:10pm LovecraftDude888: I never owned any 8 tracks, myself. Went right to vinyl and cassettes as a young tyke
	🎸 ♥ 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, tripped-out acid Beach Boys!
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Matt - like they weren't ?
	5:13pm glenn: he doesn't want just ANY 8 tracks. he wants QUAD 8 tracks.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm Matt from Springfield: @Andrew: Sounds like a creationist to me. Did he believe only small zucchini were brought on the Ark??
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: As far as I know, I don't think Brian needed acid to imagine his visions--psychedelic in the Beach Boys' own way for sure, just not in the acid-rock style of that song.
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - obviously a non-rural person who never knew anybody w/ a garden trying to fob off 1,000 large zucchini on you...
	5:15pm LovecraftDude888: right...not even quad did I own. the equipment is still expensive now, I think...at least usually if it's in mint condition. 5.1 is fine for me. 7.5 whatever
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm Alison Porchnik: The cover of today's Metro NY had the subhead "Courtney Barnett: Indie Rock's Lena Dunham."
	5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - don't know if Brian Wilson needed acid - but he he famously had it - enuff to be disturbed by it.
	5:16pm LovecraftDude888: i was always allergic to cucumber still am a bit....plus other things watermelon...walnuts...weird FX
	♥ 5:17pm Andrew Waterloo: @Matt Just someone who grew up in the city. It was funny because she was such a notorious know-it-all.
	🎸 ♥ 5:18pm rrg: Hey, all those names are Irish.
	🎸 ♥ 5:19pm Matt from Springfield: Andrew/RRN63: Those durned yokel-less! :)
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - 'California Girls' known to be written coming down off acid for example...basic Brian Wilson bio stuff... - all of us know-it-alls have those dum-dum moments - it's great...
	5:20pm LovecraftDude888: Alison.. that cat looks fierce!
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Alison Porchnik: Ex-Cops, ok. Now how about playing some Axe Cop?
	♥ 5:22pm Irwin: That cat is FEROCIOUS. His middle name is RUB MY TUMMY.
	5:24pm glenn: huh. most cat's middle name is WHERE'S MY BALLS.
	5:24pm LovecraftDude888: app. you can get a Sansui 1976 Quad receiver decoder on Ebay for $40 but will it work..maybe, mebbe not. gotta have special table and cartridge supposedly, also. Egads.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm Matt from Springfield: EQuads.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm rrg: 1993.
	5:27pm glenn: yeah, i never understood the appeal of quad.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good news - today's 7SD newsletter didn't wind up in my gmail spam folder.
	5:28pm LovecraftDude888: i was also too poor years ago to afford the Mobile Fidelity LPs. Could barely afford normal ones! Esp. at Record World or Sam Goody (Baddy)
	🎸 ♥ 5:29pm Matt from Springfield: Hope you're drumming with the H&M this year, Irwin!
	5:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah ! - wanna see Irwin's chops !
	♥ 5:30pm Carmichael: I hear they're in need of 10 cowbell players. Or was it 10 theremin players?
	🎸 ♥ 5:31pm Alison Porchnik: I hear a Bit-Coin ATM just debuted somewhere. I assume this machine takes your cash and gives you some kind of card in return.
	5:35pm LovecraftDude888: takes your money and the machine does bits for you....
	🎸 ♥ 5:36pm rrg: Ivy is a band. Who knew? Not me, not until a few days ago.
	🎸 ♥ 5:37pm Matt from Springfield: HELP WANTED: WFMU DJ "PGB" requests 9 assistant thereminists for live radio broadcast. Please provide own theremin.
	5:37pm Droll: Alison, That's a brilliant idea! I'm gonna make one of those -- a machine that takes cash and gives a card with "bitcoins" on it. Who are they going to come after when they find out the card is blank? I'd rather have anonymous cash than anonymous bitcoin.
	♥ 5:37pm Irwin: I'm back sharing the drum throne with EFD, Dave Mandl, Thomas Storck, and Diken. Also singing a song TBA.
	5:37pm the glowing one: That's a cover, right? "She Really Got to You". The melody of the verse is VERY familiar.
	5:38pm LovecraftDude888: Droll...just invest in those amusement machines the crane/prize ones at diners and such..same difference. Remember those splashdown coin games? What a racket
	🎸 ♥ 5:39pm Matt from Springfield: Lookin forward to it as always, Irwin! @RRN63: He's quite a drummer--listen to past H&M performances, the majority of songs have Irwin behind the drums.
	5:39pm glenn: i'll bet that irwin's singing some miley.
	🎸 ♥ 5:40pm Matt from Springfield: @glenn: After all, Miley is "on top" again.
	5:41pm steve: Matt i may actually still have 9+ homemade theremins in a closet somewhere. but theyre light sensitive, dont have any sort of enclosures and are impossible to play. i suppose thats probly perfect for FMU then.
	♥ 5:42pm Irwin: Matt: Not true. We always have 5 or 6 drummers, we each play on 6 to 8 tunes.
	5:44pm glenn: this chick's got a theremin and she's not afraid to use it. claravenice.com...
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm rrg: Oh, I LOVE her hair.
	5:47pm LovecraftDude888: I wanna shag her while she plays the theremin...she's hot. hawt
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...! - she could likely move her hands around me & control my pitch & volume pretty easily ...I was wondering when we'd hear more Barrence !
	🎸 ♥ 5:48pm Matt from Springfield: @steve: I'll have a truck pick them up for FMU!! @Irwin: Hmm, I still thought it was mainly you and occasionally some others most Marathons. Well, still a pleazh for all listening!
	🎸 ♥ 5:50pm Matt from Springfield: Great Muffs song! Like the Bangles with a little "oomph!"
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I thot last year Thomas Storck went undersung as both a drumbo & a frontman.
	5:51pm LovecraftDude888: dinner break shopping trip at 6 p.m. EST heah...great show Irwin!! yep saw The Muffs 3x or so in 90s...mostly at CIHigh in E. Village. ahhh some good sweaty shows.
	🎸 ♥ 5:53pm Matt from Springfield: I remember Thomas Storck's lead performance--that was GREAT!
	5:54pm Droll: Mandl, "who's real instrument is bass", is stealing throne time from actual drummers! It's amazing to hear how the different drummers get different sound from the same kit. EFD gets the best tone from the toms, he must hit a dime-sized spot in the middle, but I like Bryce's playing.
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm Matt from Springfield: Have a good evening Lovecraft. Enjoy dinner--get some Muff-ins for dessert!
	5:55pm LovecraftDude888: Matt..thanks! i just might..have to be sugar free though.
	🎸 ♥ 5:56pm rrg: Wow. I have this Blues Project album, on vinyl no less, and I didn't realize it was Tom-Wilson-produced.
	5:56pm glenn: i'm pretty jelly of bryce. he can play anything.
	🎸 ♥ 5:56pm rrg: "Projections"
	🎸 ♥ 5:57pm rrg: Thanks for another fine three-hour block, Irwin. Dinner time. Soon, anyway. Bye, all.
	5:58pm Droll: Thanks, Earwin! Have a fun week, yinz!
	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Sounds like a shweeeettt premium! Thanks Irwin! Always a joy to listen and comment here! Have a good evening, Irwinites!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx As Ever IC !
	5:58pm P-90: Clara Venice, I know her work, she's aiming to be the new Clara Rockmore. Then again she has to fight for musical cred against the tide of dudes who get one look at her and want to shag her. Rather like Clara Rockmore in her time. @Irwin, lovely show, great bat-roost, the whole deal. Looking forward to your marathon shifts and especially your H&M Sin performance!

Listener comments!
	🎸 ♥ 3:03pm rrg: Not necessarily a bad thing, but probably.
	🎸 ♥ 3:05pm rrg: That bat roost has to be British. Doesn't it? I can't read the fine print, though.
	3:05pm Michael: That picture is crazy.
	♥ 3:06pm SSS: Finally! A proper church for bats! So civilized.........
	3:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bats are good. Socialize BatCare.
	3:07pm Listening Out There: Even more drums. This drummer lives in Switzerland, last I heard...
	♥ 3:08pm common: Yea! Love bats and drums and synths!
	♥ 3:09pm mariano: Wow, love me some Billy Cobham. The opening from Mahavishnu's "Vital Transformation" is the most kick-ass drum intro ever!
	3:09pm Michael: Cobham played at my college around '77 with George Duke and I remember he had quite a large kit for back then.
	3:09pm Laura L: The municipality must've put the cross on top to keep the vampire variety of bats away.
	3:12pm P-90: OK: "Bat-ROOST". --Thought for for a second it was like the town's smoke-house, "BatRoast"
	3:12pm Listening Out There: I've seen Billy Cobham 4-5 times, and he always he a large kit. Large muscles, too.
	3:13pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...these here Batz is Sanctified !! ...They're probably just exploiting the Worker Bats for guano to make Munitions...
	3:13pm Droll: It looks like there's a human-sized door on the front, but no stairs leading to it. This signage 30ft in the air also suggests something missing from this picture's story. Not sure how to properly praise Mr. Cobham's combination of technique and taste...
	3:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...a veritable Guano-tanimo...
	3:15pm Droll: LoT, I've never seen Cobham live, but I've seen Dennis Chambers and his arms are as thick as my legs. Same kinds of explosions of speed. Great to watch.
	3:16pm Kirill: Stratus? I thought it's Hedrix melody
	3:16pm berbo: Are you sleeping? And if so, why are we sleeping. It OK, they're only sleeping.
	🎸 ♥ 3:17pm rrg: Between last week and this I got this album. I rather like it, don't you know. It's not the only Nilsson tribute album, but it's...the most recent.
	3:18pm Woo: I saw Mott the Hoople open for Mahavishnu Orchestra. Someone threw a bottle at Ian Hunter. After he jumped off the stage and kicked ass, Mott's set was over. I miss those incongruous pairings.
	3:19pm glenn: ian could probably still kick ass, at what, 72?
	3:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& there's a perfectly symmetrical pairing...
	3:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...down the memory hole...
	3:20pm Listening Out There: Similar: One time I saw the Mahavishnu Orchestra, the opener was Taj Mahal. He introduced his backup singers, the Pointer Sisters.
	3:20pm P-90: Saw B. Cobham I-don't-know-how many times (including w/the underrated Jazz is Dead combo) and he was always very muscular and big-kitted.
	3:20pm glenn: i think the bat roost is in texas. i saw that pic elsewhere recently.
	3:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - there's the famous bridge in Austin 1,000s of bats fly out from under every sunset - they migrate from Mexico...Austin is a very 'Batman' city...
	3:24pm mariano: Wow, wish I'd been able to see Mahavishnu, especially with the openers y'all mentioned.
	♥ 3:25pm Chingadera Con Queso: I am in love with this!
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm rrg: Yes, the bat roost is in San Antonio. Found the original image (a little higher-res): www.shorpy.com...
	♥ 3:26pm joe: The Pointer Sisters popped up in some crazy places in history.
	3:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - obvious question - did Pat have any idea people associate the 'rails' w/ lines of coke...or is he 'meta' to that, mahhn...
	3:27pm Droll: [ Searching fruitlessly to find the name of the arranger of Crazy Train ] Love it or hate it, whoever arranged this nailed it.
	3:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah !
	3:28pm Listening Out There: Great site, Shorpy is. I look at their stuff via RSS.
	3:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Link no worky rrg : (
	🎸 ♥ 3:28pm rrg: "His cover of Ozzy Osbourne's Crazy Train would later serve as the theme song for Ozzy's reality show, The Osbournes. His effort to give rock songs a swing treatment was imitated later by his contemporary Paul Anka in the album Rock Swings."
	♥ 3:28pm common: yes pat, you're insane.
	🎸 ♥ 3:30pm rrg: Link works for me, RRN63.
	🎸 ♥ 3:31pm rrg: If I could post an actual picture here, I would.
	3:31pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Mahvishnu-Mayfield-Zappa !
	3:31pm P-90: yeah, looks like a human-size door up there, but no stairs is no biggie if access is only required for once-yearly inspection or in case of a fire or something (see BATROAST) ...thanks for the Shorpy link, I got curious and dried blowing up the playlist image, too low-rez to see details or read the signs ...um Shorpy link not opening for me
	3:33pm P-90: NO JOE TWO WKS in a row?! whatta gyp! oh, OK, excerpts, fine-- better than nada
	3:33pm Listening Out There: http://www.shorpy.com/
	🎸 ♥ 3:33pm rrg: It's working for me but I'll try again: www.shorpy.com...
	3:34pm glenn: oh boy. the atheist in me isn't sure whether to laugh or cry.
	3:34pm Droll: Requested Joe Frank clip to re-hear: "Pull my pants down and slap me with your Punishing Rod. SAY IT! LOUDER!" I read all those episodes are real!
	3:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...try this : www.shorpy.com... ...I was right - they knew good guano when they saw it...
	3:35pm Listening Out There: If you see "Always Something Interesting," you're there. :)
	3:35pm P-90: "TRIED blowing" : this iPad app doesn't always store my changes, frustratiating...
	♥ 3:35pm Sem Chumbo: @rrg: I have the Shorpy rss feed. It is fine but I get a page not found error on your link:(
	♥ 3:37pm Sem Chumbo: OK, RevRab: never go to the home page, just read the feed day to day. Thx.
	3:37pm Listening Out There: "Maybe a DNS issue?" is my usual answer with site-not-found issues. Sometimes it's actually right...
	🎸 ♥ 3:37pm rrg: If you modify the link in the browser to explicitly stick "http://" in front of it, it seems to work. Might be something to do with how this site modifies links for display. Or maybe it's more subtle.
	♥ 3:37pm KevinfromBayRidge: Good Afternoon all. Saw Mahavishnu open for The Byrds & Blue 0yster Cult @ Stony Brook in the early 70s. No Pennywhistlesor Poets ..All good!
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm rrg: Not a DNS issue. I don't think.
	🎸 ♥ 3:38pm rrg: Laugh, glenn.
	♥ 3:39pm mariano: Mars Audiac! Been a while!
	3:39pm Listening Out There: Googling "Shorpy photos" will also getcha there...
	3:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...geez - these bills !; people somewhat to slightly older than me saying they saw Hendrix for $2 or whatever: if you keep talking, I'll have to kill us all @rrg: I got Safari - it adds http://, but it don't open...
	♥ 3:41pm mariano: Mahavishnu and BOC? Just seeing those two names together makes me feel like I'm tripping!
	🎸 ♥ 3:41pm northguineahills: Yeah, that's a fave Stereolab of mine.
	3:43pm Droll: rrg is right, if humans agree to speak computerese and correct the link, then the computer shows you the picture. Computers love cookies, I'll bet Kenzo ate the cookies and that's why the computer link is broken: envious computer.
	3:44pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...of course - those people just like to say they saw Hendrix as a Stratus Symbol...
	🎸 ♥ 3:44pm rrg: I'm using Safari too. Clicking on the link as displayed here returns a page with the text "page not found" from the Shorpy site. Explicitly adding "http://" at the front of the Safari-displayed URL goes to the page. I swear. For me, anyway.
	🎸 ♥ 3:45pm rrg: This is one of those songs that I recognize from the first couple of notes. Take me back to Constantinople.
	3:47pm P-90: OK, "mosquito control" in times of much malaria. On stilts to "facilitate the harvesting of guano by the truckload". Yum. The "stilts" look at first glance like they're 4 by 4's and the whole thing is like a little dollhouse bat-roost. Then you see the little dude. On closer look the stilts are concrete poured in plywood molds, which captures the wood grain patterns on the surface. "Guano by the truckload": remember the 2012 Republican Debates?
	3:50pm whattawino: OK, I have to say I saw a show in Orlando '72 with Mahavishnu, Todd Rundgren and...George Carlin! It was end of the year college show. Yow!
	3:51pm Listening Out There: The demographics of this program. Who'd a thunk it?
	🎸 ♥ 3:52pm rrg: My goodness we're an old lot here. Where did all the youngsters go? Like MattFromSpringfield? And Caryn?
	3:52pm glenn: i don't think it's concrete. the joints where the beams meet the posts is too defined.
	3:52pm P-90: @rrg: shows my perfect score for avoiding the Osbournes reality show, I had no idea the Pat Boone cover was the theme. We're doing so much RIPing lately; I'm still RIPing Randy Rhoads
	3:52pm glenn: are too defined.
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm rrg: And I saw the Stones in Candlestick Park for $17 in October of 1981. And I was patted down before I was able to enter the park, and it offended me, though I laughed about it at the time.
	🎸 ♥ 3:56pm Alison Porchnik: I prefer Ron Jeremy's version.
	♥ 3:56pm Mike East: I think I know the original that he's covering...I like this much better. much more passion and feeling
	3:57pm Listening Out There: I heard "Incorrect Music" on WFMU in 2002. It cost me my sanity...
	♥ 3:57pm common: does ron jeremy really do a cover of that, alison?
	3:58pm P-90: I've paid a lot more than $17 for a good pat-down. But figuring for inflation...
	3:59pm Droll: If IceJJfish can't make money on YouTubez, he'll make a bundle selling T-shirts. All bands get rich as apparel companies nowadays.
	3:59pm glenn: suppressing urge to make joke about ron jeremy covering something.
	🎸 ♥ 3:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: The bat roost picture didn't look too remarkable until I noticed the dude standing within it. He must be rich; rich like kings of Europe, from the bat guano.
	3:59pm 67tele: I have a Wreckin Ball song, it was wrote about 25 years before hers: soundcloud.com/1958chevy/wreckin-ball
	4:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'm sure in 1981 you exuded a particularly threatening air rrg...
	4:02pm LovecraftDude888: he's also an expert climber and mountaineer to shamble up that gigantic wooden rig!
	4:03pm glenn: uh. i'm willing to bet whoever took the photo also moved the ladder away.
	4:04pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: $17 & I'll bring the ladder back !
	4:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...that was a fortune in guano in those days...
	4:05pm glenn: he's not that comfortable up there, or he'd be standing in the middle away from the column.
	4:06pm LovecraftDude888: I'd be freaking out....don't like heights and standing on 1 ft. or under wooden posts! bats don't bother me.
	🎸 ♥ 4:07pm Ken From Hyde Park: Nearly 100 years ago, 4012 pounds of guano - webecoist.momtastic.com...
	4:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...you're a Goth - duh...
	♥ 4:07pm Irwin: George Benson guitar on this Morgan tune
	4:08pm Listening Out There: Gads. There's actually a recording label called Incorrect Music. Irwin must know that...
	4:08pm glenn: well, if he's 6 feet tall, that centre beam is maybe 13 feet above grade.
	4:08pm Ronald Jeremy®: Hey, this looks like a cool podcast and everything, how is everybody today? I heard someone was using my name here without permission? Come on, play fair, my name is all I have to sell. What is this anyway? I'm a huge Mahavishnu fan! Shakti too! Of course they were never as good after John kicked Jan Hammer out. What's this got to do with me? What's the average age on here, like about 70 or something (just teasing you guys)
	4:08pm LovecraftDude888: true..ye olde punk goth mod. guy. too old to be a goth but don't wanna be sad olde goth either. that is no fun
	4:09pm zzz: sweet track. I was going to ask if this was grant green but I love early benson
	4:09pm glenn: maybe 16 feet.
	4:09pm Droll: C'mon ye olde fartes, let's hear about how you saw Lee Morgan play three sets and then do a pickup gig at an after-hours club -- all for the cost of a bottle of whiskey ($4). Check this out -- the media is STILL painting jazz musicians as hipster dopers: www.nydailynews.com...
	4:10pm the glowing one: they're not?
	4:12pm LovecraftDude888: Droll...i saw Charlie Parker in 1940 at...no i didn't. Anyway, yeah reading up on the Vineberg connex. what a farce. I've heard about some other connex. today with PSH's rehab but I cannot talk about it...but basically it confirmed for me how widespread the problem is in downtown NYC and musician world for sure. It's omnipresent. I mean not just musicians,...all else.
	4:13pm Listening Out There: Never saw Lee Morgan. :) Did see Art Blakey a coupla times, though...
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: Vineberg was an orig. James Chance and Contortions member supposedly. I always heard most of those no wave people were total junkies anyway. I dunno.
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: In a way I'm glad I was too young for that scene at that time, I might've ended up dead etc.
	4:15pm LovecraftDude888: what about Alain Delon's forehead?
	4:16pm Ronald Jeremy®: See? they needed a patsy, so they went and rounded up some "Greenwich Village bohemian"-type Jazz muso with a "$10 a day" "smack addiction" and announced they'd cracked that PSH case WIDE open......fuckin NYPD, they're in a fuckin time warp, they've been binge-watching too many Boardwalk Empire DVDs
	4:16pm Woo: Speaking of Jan Hammer, I saw him with Jeff Beck. Heart was in the middle and Boston was the opener. 1977. I think the power went out at one point.
	4:18pm P-90: Heart was in the middle? Both Wilsons? I've had that fantasy since 1978
	4:19pm LovecraftDude888: but not with Boston involved....urghh
	4:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - okay - I've seen Jeff Beck in my era - blew my mind - but when I saw him on the bill w/ Stevie Ray Vaughan - he had Terry Bozzio drumming - & I was shouting for Terry, I tell yoo what...
	4:20pm LovecraftDude888: Vineberg is def. a dealer, 300 bags for his own use? haha right!
	4:20pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - you & everyone P-90...
	🎸 ♥ 4:21pm rrg: Here's that JF bed music.
	♥ 4:22pm joe: Doug where is Doug anybody see Doug?
	♥ 4:23pm Carmichael: RR, I saw that same SRV/Beck tour in Sacramento. I went with a bunch of shitkickers who were hog caiiling for Stevie Ray. It was worth the price of admission to see Beck blow 'em all out of the arena. Also RRG, I think I was at that stones concert in SF. Did the Neville Brothers open for 'em?
	4:24pm Laura L: Can't hear this Can without thinking of Joe Frank.
	4:24pm P-90: #Rev: I caught that tour too, at the Dr. Pepper pier summer series on the Hudson, good show that night. You weren't by any chance the guy sitting in the row in front of me with a hot Latina chick, you were wearing a long brown ponytail, braided, with like fresh baby's breath woven into it? That wasn't you was it? That would trip me out right now man
	4:25pm berbo: I feel like selling some defective bibles.
	4:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I should be so lucky P-90! I saw it in LA when I lived in Santa Barbara - we were bummed we got tickets so late we were behind the stage - but it turned out right behind it ! - w/ Bowie sitting right below us & staring into Bonnie Raitt & people in the front row...
	4:26pm glenn: the best part of seeing jeff beck these days is tal.
	4:26pm P-90: THE loop
	4:28pm glenn: heart and boston together i can see, but jeff beck? i often wonder who puts these shows together. the ramones opened for ted nugent in toronto once. it was a debacle.
	4:28pm LovecraftDude888: isn't that the type of thing that Antonin Artaud did? the glosso. action....
	🎸 ♥ 4:29pm rrg: @Carmichael: I don't remember that (Neville Bros.) and I don't actually remember who opened for them, but the Internet suggests it was J. Geils and/or George Thorogood.
	4:29pm LovecraftDude888: need more laudanum..brb
	4:30pm P-90: New Pink Floyd, there's also that band Nachem plays sometimes, Jew Pink Floyd. Different outfit completely, no glossolalia
	4:32pm Shaun(ununun): @P-90, I actually recognized THE loop on the Bible Salesman episode of Joe Frank's last week as an instrumental section of a song from Can's Ege Bamyasi (73') titled 'One More Night'. (?).(?)
	4:32pm LovecraftDude888: ha Klezmer Pink Floyd!
	4:33pm LovecraftDude888: I bought the Can lost tapes...played disc 1 last weekend...need to play rest of it soon
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm rrg: I have a thing about Clara Bow.
	♥ 4:33pm Carmichael: Hey, Martin Newell! I love this song, heard it from your CD/book, Irwin.
	4:34pm P-90: Maybe it'll make the Guinness Book of World Records "Top Ten Episodes of WFMU's Seven Second Delay Program" list. But what would get bumped to make room?
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm rrg: One actually can hear Clara Bow speak. She made a few sound movies.
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I love the idea of Twisted Tributes. - yeah - Martin Newell ! ...Beck's done the tour w/ Brian Wilson - Frank's played a bit on Monday A.M. - sounds excellent !!
	♥ 4:35pm Carmichael: Ya know, it could very well have been Thorogood. But I do remember the Nevs opening, perhaps a different concert. I'm older than all of you, and that's all I remember.
	4:35pm P-90: I hear she really had "it".
	4:35pm Shaun(ununun): en.wikipedia.org... : 'Joe Frank used "One More Night" as the score for "The Road To Calvary" from Somewhere Out There.'
	4:35pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Nevs & Stones - I'm down.
	4:36pm LovecraftDude888: there was stray voltage there....14 days of zottt
	4:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...but of course I can hardly be satisfied till Jeff Beck & Beck Hansen collaborate...which they certainly could...
	4:39pm P-90: @Shaun: I was certain he used that loop in more than one of his shows. I still sounds like I heard him use it a couple times over the years, wonder if there's way to check that...or maybe he's made a lot of similar-vibe loops for what he does, so it sounds familiar for that reason
	4:42pm glenn: glow in the dark reindeer.news.nationalpost.com...
	4:42pm P-90: Rev: Beck/Hansen/Beck, i got a link to their leaked demo from a couple years back, gimme a minute Wow, Bronwen's got a GREAT singing voice. Oh, wrong Bronwen
	4:44pm LovecraftDude888: it was so foggy here today earlier you couldn't even see a glow in the dark atomic bomb
	🎸 ♥ 4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Nice little operatic chorus here! And the snow sure is melting! Hi Irwin and everyone! Marathon is upon us!
	4:44pm P-90: I see, very clever, they can see at a glance which deer paid the cover charge.
	4:46pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...the further commercialization of Xmas...
	🎸 ♥ 4:49pm Matt from Springfield: Sounds like a good vacuuming track!
	♥ 4:50pm Irwin: Matt is in the virtual house!
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm Matt from Springfield: And Irwin is apparently not using this track for vacuuming duties! :) Hey Irwin, glad to catch you live today! :D
	🎸 ♥ 4:52pm Matt from Springfield: Oooh! This is the angry actor's nervous breakdown!---This is a classic!
	♥ 4:52pm efd: I love this guy. WHO ARE YOU?!
	♥ 4:53pm mariano: OMG, it's that crazy guy yelling at the poor trumpeter!
	♥ 4:53pm Carmichael: Sounds like a sissified Al Pacino.
	♥ 4:53pm efd: I'm getting this guy to be my week 2 marathon MC so he can berate everyone who hasn't pledged yet.
	♥ 4:53pm mariano: If you see the Youtube clip, he looks like Paul Simon's Mini Me!
	4:54pm Droll: . o O ( I would be flattered if someone cared this much about my music )
	4:54pm LovecraftDude888: I stood in front of SVA once how dare you compare yerself to me! me mem me
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Oh yeah! Al Pacino 33 @ 45!!
	4:54pm hamburger: sounds like a spinoff wurster character?
	4:54pm the glowing one: www.youtube.com...
	4:54pm steve: haha hamburger... he is Wurster-esque!
	♥ 4:55pm Carmichael: "You're all out of order." This whole court is out of order!!!"
	4:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so want wunna them 'I Only Like NY as a Friend' T-Shirts...I walked Dylan onto the stage ! I knew the Grateful Dead before they were millionaires !...
	🎸 ♥ 4:55pm Matt from Springfield: @EFD: "You're NOBODY! You pledged NOTHING! I'm not gonna take this [bleep] from you! Evan's gonna pack his brilliant show up and leave, if you don't show SOME appreciation, you ungrateful bastards!!"
	♥ 4:56pm Carmichael: Thomas is cool. Doesn't he sing the Beatles?
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Matt from Springfield: THOMAS! :D Sung to an 80s karaoke version too, it sounds like.
	4:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...he sounds like Paul Simon's mini-me...
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm Matt from Springfield: Why yes, Carm! Thomas sings the Beatles, on "Thomas Sings The Beatles", his Irwin/WFMU only album!
	4:57pm Droll: I like Thomas, really, but I think all the reverb masks his articulation. He doesn't need autotune, and he doesn't need all the 'verb.
	♥ 4:57pm efd: @Matt you're my back-up choice if I can't track that guy down.
	🎸 ♥ 4:58pm Matt from Springfield: BACK-UP??! I'm second to THAT guy??! What does he know!!! ;)
	4:58pm LovecraftDude888: makes me wanna hear some Wesley Willis too
	4:59pm Slim_Pickin's: This reminds me I need to get back in to karoke'n !
	🎸 ♥ 5:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Slim: Listen to Thomas' other tracks, and study up on them. He has good karaoke technique.
	5:03pm danjoseph: "Four What"? I know it's a cover of Four Organs
	♥ 5:04pm mariano: Bet you are that kinda guy, sicko!
	5:05pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...is the cucumber thing supposed to make up for no Joe Frank - ??...
	🎸 ♥ 5:05pm rrg: Four Optigans.
	5:05pm glenn: yes i have. cucumber, fennel and endive salad, with rice wine vinegar and sesame oil dressing. it was damn tasty.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Matt from Springfield: Anti-cuke protest broken up, by policemen wielding large zucchini..
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Alison Porchnik: Best riff ever
	♥ 5:07pm Andrew Waterloo: a member of the gourd family, it's a cylindrical fruit used as a culinary vegetable.
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm rrg: Sure, but he also did a good riff on grilled salmon once.
	5:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...it has seed inside it - it's a fruit - & that's law & order bub...
	5:09pm glenn: anybody got any 8 tracks they wanna get rid of? toronto.en.craigslist.ca...
	♥ 5:09pm Andrew Waterloo: I had an argument with someone who believed that the small zucchinis in grocery store were the only size they came in.
	🎸 ♥ 5:10pm rrg: What?
	5:10pm LovecraftDude888: I never owned any 8 tracks, myself. Went right to vinyl and cassettes as a young tyke
	🎸 ♥ 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, tripped-out acid Beach Boys!
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Matt - like they weren't ?
	5:13pm glenn: he doesn't want just ANY 8 tracks. he wants QUAD 8 tracks.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm Matt from Springfield: @Andrew: Sounds like a creationist to me. Did he believe only small zucchini were brought on the Ark??
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Matt from Springfield: @RRN63: As far as I know, I don't think Brian needed acid to imagine his visions--psychedelic in the Beach Boys' own way for sure, just not in the acid-rock style of that song.
	5:14pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - obviously a non-rural person who never knew anybody w/ a garden trying to fob off 1,000 large zucchini on you...
	5:15pm LovecraftDude888: right...not even quad did I own. the equipment is still expensive now, I think...at least usually if it's in mint condition. 5.1 is fine for me. 7.5 whatever
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm Alison Porchnik: The cover of today's Metro NY had the subhead "Courtney Barnett: Indie Rock's Lena Dunham."
	5:16pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - don't know if Brian Wilson needed acid - but he he famously had it - enuff to be disturbed by it.
	5:16pm LovecraftDude888: i was always allergic to cucumber still am a bit....plus other things watermelon...walnuts...weird FX
	♥ 5:17pm Andrew Waterloo: @Matt Just someone who grew up in the city. It was funny because she was such a notorious know-it-all.
	🎸 ♥ 5:18pm rrg: Hey, all those names are Irish.
	🎸 ♥ 5:19pm Matt from Springfield: Andrew/RRN63: Those durned yokel-less! :)
	5:19pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - 'California Girls' known to be written coming down off acid for example...basic Brian Wilson bio stuff... - all of us know-it-alls have those dum-dum moments - it's great...
	5:20pm LovecraftDude888: Alison.. that cat looks fierce!
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm Alison Porchnik: Ex-Cops, ok. Now how about playing some Axe Cop?
	♥ 5:22pm Irwin: That cat is FEROCIOUS. His middle name is RUB MY TUMMY.
	5:24pm glenn: huh. most cat's middle name is WHERE'S MY BALLS.
	5:24pm LovecraftDude888: app. you can get a Sansui 1976 Quad receiver decoder on Ebay for $40 but will it work..maybe, mebbe not. gotta have special table and cartridge supposedly, also. Egads.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm Matt from Springfield: EQuads.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm rrg: 1993.
	5:27pm glenn: yeah, i never understood the appeal of quad.
	🎸 ♥ 5:27pm Ken From Hyde Park: Good news - today's 7SD newsletter didn't wind up in my gmail spam folder.
	5:28pm LovecraftDude888: i was also too poor years ago to afford the Mobile Fidelity LPs. Could barely afford normal ones! Esp. at Record World or Sam Goody (Baddy)
	🎸 ♥ 5:29pm Matt from Springfield: Hope you're drumming with the H&M this year, Irwin!
	5:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - yeah ! - wanna see Irwin's chops !
	♥ 5:30pm Carmichael: I hear they're in need of 10 cowbell players. Or was it 10 theremin players?
	🎸 ♥ 5:31pm Alison Porchnik: I hear a Bit-Coin ATM just debuted somewhere. I assume this machine takes your cash and gives you some kind of card in return.
	5:35pm LovecraftDude888: takes your money and the machine does bits for you....
	🎸 ♥ 5:36pm rrg: Ivy is a band. Who knew? Not me, not until a few days ago.
	🎸 ♥ 5:37pm Matt from Springfield: HELP WANTED: WFMU DJ "PGB" requests 9 assistant thereminists for live radio broadcast. Please provide own theremin.
	5:37pm Droll: Alison, That's a brilliant idea! I'm gonna make one of those -- a machine that takes cash and gives a card with "bitcoins" on it. Who are they going to come after when they find out the card is blank? I'd rather have anonymous cash than anonymous bitcoin.
	♥ 5:37pm Irwin: I'm back sharing the drum throne with EFD, Dave Mandl, Thomas Storck, and Diken. Also singing a song TBA.
	5:37pm the glowing one: That's a cover, right? "She Really Got to You". The melody of the verse is VERY familiar.
	5:38pm LovecraftDude888: Droll...just invest in those amusement machines the crane/prize ones at diners and such..same difference. Remember those splashdown coin games? What a racket
	🎸 ♥ 5:39pm Matt from Springfield: Lookin forward to it as always, Irwin! @RRN63: He's quite a drummer--listen to past H&M performances, the majority of songs have Irwin behind the drums.
	5:39pm glenn: i'll bet that irwin's singing some miley.
	🎸 ♥ 5:40pm Matt from Springfield: @glenn: After all, Miley is "on top" again.
	5:41pm steve: Matt i may actually still have 9+ homemade theremins in a closet somewhere. but theyre light sensitive, dont have any sort of enclosures and are impossible to play. i suppose thats probly perfect for FMU then.
	♥ 5:42pm Irwin: Matt: Not true. We always have 5 or 6 drummers, we each play on 6 to 8 tunes.
	5:44pm glenn: this chick's got a theremin and she's not afraid to use it. claravenice.com...
	🎸 ♥ 5:46pm rrg: Oh, I LOVE her hair.
	5:47pm LovecraftDude888: I wanna shag her while she plays the theremin...she's hot. hawt
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...! - she could likely move her hands around me & control my pitch & volume pretty easily ...I was wondering when we'd hear more Barrence !
	🎸 ♥ 5:48pm Matt from Springfield: @steve: I'll have a truck pick them up for FMU!! @Irwin: Hmm, I still thought it was mainly you and occasionally some others most Marathons. Well, still a pleazh for all listening!
	🎸 ♥ 5:50pm Matt from Springfield: Great Muffs song! Like the Bangles with a little "oomph!"
	5:51pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I thot last year Thomas Storck went undersung as both a drumbo & a frontman.
	5:51pm LovecraftDude888: dinner break shopping trip at 6 p.m. EST heah...great show Irwin!! yep saw The Muffs 3x or so in 90s...mostly at CIHigh in E. Village. ahhh some good sweaty shows.
	🎸 ♥ 5:53pm Matt from Springfield: I remember Thomas Storck's lead performance--that was GREAT!
	5:54pm Droll: Mandl, "who's real instrument is bass", is stealing throne time from actual drummers! It's amazing to hear how the different drummers get different sound from the same kit. EFD gets the best tone from the toms, he must hit a dime-sized spot in the middle, but I like Bryce's playing.
	🎸 ♥ 5:54pm Matt from Springfield: Have a good evening Lovecraft. Enjoy dinner--get some Muff-ins for dessert!
	5:55pm LovecraftDude888: Matt..thanks! i just might..have to be sugar free though.
	🎸 ♥ 5:56pm rrg: Wow. I have this Blues Project album, on vinyl no less, and I didn't realize it was Tom-Wilson-produced.
	5:56pm glenn: i'm pretty jelly of bryce. he can play anything.
	🎸 ♥ 5:56pm rrg: "Projections"
	🎸 ♥ 5:57pm rrg: Thanks for another fine three-hour block, Irwin. Dinner time. Soon, anyway. Bye, all.
	5:58pm Droll: Thanks, Earwin! Have a fun week, yinz!
	🎸 ♥ 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Sounds like a shweeeettt premium! Thanks Irwin! Always a joy to listen and comment here! Have a good evening, Irwinites!
	5:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Thx As Ever IC !
	5:58pm P-90: Clara Venice, I know her work, she's aiming to be the new Clara Rockmore. Then again she has to fight for musical cred against the tide of dudes who get one look at her and want to shag her. Rather like Clara Rockmore in her time. @Irwin, lovely show, great bat-roost, the whole deal. Looking forward to your marathon shifts and especially your H&M Sin performance!
