	9:20am Parq: Hya, Joe. This Wyatt cover is outstanding!
	9:20am HEAT: HULLO KP KP KP
	9:22am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe and all. Garden a little, listen a little. Feel like I am missing out on something devoting all my time to one or the other:)
	9:23am KP: There is an amazing video Wyatt and an all-star band doing Im a Believer on the Old Grey Whistle test. His original cover of it was a huge hit for him and i think the first thing he did after his accident.
	9:23am Joe McG: Heya, Sem, Parq, VP! @Fred: You know I always play Voivod every show, Fred!
	9:25am Cecile: Hullo!
	9:26am Rev. Turnip Druid: .........peeple.
	9:27am HEAT: Hi Cecile!!
	9:27am Roberto: Keep it loud, Joe. Gotta drown out the clowns sitting next to me at the office.
	9:27am KP: The Association was first the real band i ever saw. I usually say the Who, who i witnessed at same place a week later, in their Happy Jack stage. But it was the Association.
	9:28am Michele: Good morning everyone! Hi Joe, I'm excited for some rainy day music!
	9:28am SeanG: Rock on Joe--last night I listened to the Ramases segment of your show last week-awesome--Hello everyone!
	👻 9:30am Brian in UK: perfect ironing music, marvy
	9:30am Glenn m: My clients are fans
	9:31am Joe McG: Hey ,Cecile! Michele! Hey, Glenn! @SeanG: I've gotten a lot of nice comments on last week's show. Maybe I should do more interviews!
	9:31am Looms: Hi Joe & everyone! Glad to be home and listening, loved the Miracles song.
	9:32am Cecile: hey heat! all!
	9:32am Van in DC: Greetings! Almost managed to miss the entire first set!
	9:35am V Priceless: very cool Joe! have to score that Rhino anth! Hey 10Cecile! Ha! @ KP - Association were actually real players when it came to performing live, back in the day! Really fine musicians, IMO - and of course, the 6-part harmonies are mind-blowing! Not lots of actual live film footage around though - I've only seen maybe 3 or 4 actual live clips from '66-'69 era.
	9:37am Joe McG: Hey Looms! Hey, Van! Archives are immortal. @KP: Envious! @VP: For Larry Ramos, R.I.P.
	9:38am V Priceless: Thanks Joe! You rock!
	9:38am Cheri Pi: Suh Seal!
	9:39am PKNY: Man, this Calvin Harris is one smooth slow burner. Nice!
	9:40am Cecile: PI
	9:41am KP: i was watching one of those Ch. 13 folkie fundraisers and they showed the New Christy Minstrels. I thought i recognized Ramos oof the Association and sure enough just read it was him. There are also clips of them with Gene Clark, who even then looks every bit the star (that was not on the fundraiser).
	9:41am Alessia: Hi Joe! I like THIS Calvin Harris
	9:42am KP: But seeing the early Who obliterated just about everything about the Association show, and everything else.
	9:43am Van in DC: ha!
	9:44am Cecile: I want to be sitting on my couch drinking cocoa at home.
	9:44am Cecile: the city smells like a giant, drunk wet dog when it rains.
	9:44am Guido from Cologne: association-wise I just say "Pandora's Golden Heebie Jeebies".
	9:45am KP: Cecile, Woof!
	9:46am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning Joltin' Joe + everybody!
	9:46am Guido from Cologne: witnessing the Who in the 60ies, this must have been a blast ...
	9:46am Cecile: Tim Huey used that cover as inspiration for their cover of I'm a Believer.
	9:48am Guido from Cologne: ... now I'm really glad i decided for those "Hippies" premium.
	9:48am Cecile: Hey Jude was written to cheer up Julian Lennon.
	9:50am Cecile: Sonny's comeback show was the talk of the town here.
	9:50am Van in DC: This is what he's talking about?
	9:51am Alessia: Hey Joe are you playing with the microphone? I can't hear you clearly, the sound seems to cut.
	9:52am Roberto: This will do nicely. Thanks Joe!
	9:52am Joe McG: @Alessia: I wasn't, but I'm going to pay a little more attention! Maybe I was talking off mic and not realizing it. Just shaking off the sleepies!
	9:53am common: now i can listen...for moments or ...yes.
	9:53am DCE: I'm glad Sonny Knight didn't name his band the "Fabulous Clippers"
	9:55am Cecile: It would have been funny if he named his band "The Fabulous Vikings"
	9:56am Alessia: Ahaha sorry I didn't mean to sound reproaching, just to know if it's you or my internet connection :)
	9:57am KP: Guido, just noticed your comment re: the Who. They still had the styled hair and sequined suits and did a lot of harmonies over a raging wall of sound. I was in fourth row in front of Townshend. I saw them many times after that but nothing compared. I never warmed to the synth sound and and preferred Daltrey's smooth high voice to his ragged screaming one. but i of course love them always.
	9:58am Van in DC: This reminds me to loop back to listen to Julie's show earlier...
	9:58am Joe McG: @Alessia: No, Alessia, it's good to know! Did I sound funny to anybody else? Maybe there's a problem here. @Van: Yes, ZZ were on Julie's show earlier today. Check the archive, folks!
	👻 9:58am 12539: Looking forward to hearing Zombie Zombie on Julie's show last night.
	10:00am Greg from Bloomfield: The panic that ZZ's drummer inspired in the female staffers has inspired me to move my hi-hat down closer to my snare. Apparently I need to be working the shoulders more...
	10:05am ?: Ubu!
	10:05am V Priceless: ubu!!!
	10:05am ?: Firsties
	10:08am common: and again, joe. i star-click the whole show!
	10:09am Joe McG: I like seeing stars!
	10:11am Guido from Cologne: @KP I must confess I kinda envy you! That was the most stylish period and groundbreaking work ... and from what i see in the filmed-footage and in those days, when "hard rock" wasn't a common thing ... that must have been an experience!
	10:18am βrian: Bonjour à tous.
	10:18am common: @greg: just saw your post about the hi-hat/snare placement. it's always been hard for me to get that right. when it is though, and i forget what that is for me - then don't change. just a feeling i had reading that. gotta get back in there with that shit. me.
	10:19am common: that made no sense. sorry.
	10:20am KP: Guido it was like Quick One from Rock N Roll Circus except they looked completely different even though that was later same year.
	10:23am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: I just validated myself by star-clicking Wild Billy Chyldish.
	10:24am SeanG: Chatham!
	10:25am Alessia: sleaford mooooods!
	10:25am βrian: That sounds oddly suggestive. "He blushed deeply, then moved his high-hat closer to his snare."
	10:26am Alessia: To me it's a bit "Suicide meets Mike Skinner"
	10:27am fred: @Alessia: when are you going to a show? I haven't seen you and Pierre in a while
	10:27am Cheri Pi: I MISSED CHILDISH???? Damn you office microwave.
	10:27am common: YESSS!!!!!! gimcp
	10:28am Rev. Turnip Druid: What common yesssss'd.
	10:29am common: this is one of the best covers i've now heard!!! my favorite fall song by them!!!
	10:29am βrian: Having just downed a triple espresso, I'm achieveing harmonic convergence.
	10:30am Rev. Turnip Druid: christ on a cripple, that was astounding.
	10:31am Brendan: Dog is my co-pilot
	10:32am βrian: J'adore Brigitte !
	10:32am ?: (Father) Yod is my co-pilot
	10:32am Alessia: Ciao fred! It's true! we are going tonight to see a friend playing at the Lavoir Moderne Parisien in 35, rue léon, 75018. But it's probably going to be a very crappy one, come if you want! And Saturday we go to see AUN at La fleche d'or. Then we will be a la villette sonique, for Man or Astroman and Meridian Brothers. Here you are our petit plan but we are up for suggestions!
	10:33am Guido from Cologne: @KP ... yeah the best Who ever! I'm glad enough that film material exists. we never would get the idea. I'm still angry on German TV that they changed "Beat Club" to full playback during the most intersting years (mid 1966 to mid 1968) mostly. what a shame! And I cannot praise AFN enough for keeping it live all the time!
	10:33am johnforz: it's on Pere Ubu's latest LP - Lady from Shanghai
	10:34am johnforz: which is a great record btw...
	10:35am fred: @Alessia: Charlotte told me about it, so I'm definitely going to be there tonight!
	10:35am common: hey joe. again...!!!
	10:36am Greg from Bloomfield: Close Encounters! (Right? I'm not just imagining that?)
	10:37am Joe McG: @Greg: I don't think you are imagining it!
	10:38am Listener David: The opening flying saucer noises are from the British scifi show, "UFO"
	10:38am Greg from Bloomfield: Scott played WP on Monday, and I just listened to "Take Me I'm Yours" on the train...Gedge getting love!
	10:39am Joe McG: @LDavid: Excellent info, thanks!
	10:40am Alessia: @fred Ah! You know CHarlotte too!That's fantastic! so we'll have a beer together later :) See you in a couple of hours
	10:48am DCE: cool tune, Tommy Roe
	10:49am Cecile: Jeezus! That was a death song! How could that be a death song?
	10:49am duke: Hi all, cool version of The Bottle
	10:50am Cecile: Great cover
	10:52am Cecile: bows head in respect
	10:53am blee: Very nice!
	10:54am Greg from Bloomfield: One of those sad songs that makes you boogie. Like "Hey Ya."
	10:55am blee: My 4 year old daughter is stomp dancing to Gil-Scott Heron
	10:56am Nardo: Top shelf 'single file' this morning, Joe!
	10:57am Joe McG: @blee: Excellent! @Nardo: Thanks! Cheated a little, since the two bottles weren't random! But Gil always sounds good.
	10:57am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Terry is singing my life story. You are rockin' the singles today Joe!
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: Sliding out to see Nick Lowe supported by John Doe tonight.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Brian: Jealous! Tell Nick I said hello and that I love him. @Jennique: I hope you didn't have to change your seat too many times in the movies!
	10:59am Cecile: this should have been a hit.
	11:00am Guido from Cologne: Sidewalk Skipper Band: instant star-click
	👻 11:01am Brian in UK: Just converted 30lbs of strawberries into jam.
	11:01am V Priceless: so much for Taco Tuesdays!
	11:01am Guido from Cologne: the should-be-hits- are the best
	11:02am SmokinJ: Sidewalk Skippers! Used to see them play the C.Y.O. dances!
	11:05am Brendan: StawberryAlarmClockFieldsForever
	11:05am Jeff: I still don't understand how it can be Strawberry Tuesday when it's actually Thursday. I guess that's why it's sike-a-dellik.
	11:08am Guido from Cologne: sold my "paint your wagon" LP away recently.
	11:12am Joe McG: @SmokinJ: Really? What were they like?
	11:14am isslaw: This sounds more like the original Michael Rother version at 33 rpm.
	11:14am Cecile: this is nice, and reminds me of Pell Mell
	11:14am Mike East: My wife thinks my William Tyler album is my favorite record, but its just the one I play most consistently at the same time. I gotta this new one.
	11:15am DCE: I read about this record t'other day, was interested to hear it
	11:16am Cecile: makes me want to go listen to Interstate.
	11:18am Greg from Bloomfield: LOVE this.
	11:19am Andrew Waterloo: wow.. thought i was hearing a new Japancakes track for a second.
	11:19am Sandy in Houston: There is a meat puppets song that has same melody I think.
	11:21am Cecile: This would be better if Jerry Reed was singing it.
	11:22am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jerry Reed!
	11:23am Joe McG: @Cecile: Ha ha! I think that's a general rule.
	11:23am rsj: this is great!
	11:23am DCE: add a little cajun growl and some sweet electric pickin'? hell yeah!
	11:24am DCE: also, bump up the bpm to 120
	11:24am blee: I love this song.
	11:25am Mike East: I think I heard a cursey word in there.
	11:26am SmokinJ: @Joe McG: The Skippers were a dynamite band. I used to see em' a lot. Still local to Brew City where I'm at :)
	11:26am Cecile: here's Jerry's version of nearly the exact same situation: www.youtube.com...
	11:27am Joe McG: Not so bad, Mike. He didn't use it in the scatological way.
	11:27am Cecile: No that's not the song I'm thinking of. But, you can never go wrong with a little Jerry Reed.
	11:27am Joe McG: @Cecile: You are the biggest Jerry Reed fan I ever knew. I'll have to play some Jerry one of these weeks.
	11:28am Mike East: I was not offended :)
	11:28am Jeff: Nice shoutout in the song to noted guitarist Nels Cline WHO WAS JUST HERE AT WFMU (playing with Cibo Matto)
	11:29am Cecile: You don't know many Jerry Reed fans, do you Joe? I mention him in bars up north, and people get misty.
	11:31am Jeff: Obligatory picture link: www.flickr.com...
	11:31am Cecile: Here's the right song: www.youtube.com...
	11:31am pollen: i'd rather hear jimmy reed sing it
	11:31am Kurt Gottschalk: joe, dude, i have a lot of work to get done. please quit killing it so much.
	11:33am Joe McG: Aw, Kurt, you rule.
	11:36am Cecile: Any Mark Kozelek song would be improved by a Jerry Clower cameo.
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: Nice one, Joe.
	11:37am fred: @Cecile: Billy Jam has played a MC from Mpls called Mally. I'm more interested in DJs, but he's pretty good. Seems related to the 5th element/Rhymesayers/Soundset crowd. I like it when I get a handwritten not with a CD. Soundset looks like a fine festival
	11:37am Joe McG: @Brian: In honor of your Nick Lowe gig tonight!
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: Never forget that hype where they were sent over to NY.
	11:39am Cecile: I want to go to Soundset some year. I'm not so excited about Mpls rap except for Bro Ali, but last year they had Eligh and the Grouch who reportedly killed it.
	11:39am Joe McG: @Brian: This number is showing their roots a bit (it's very close to "Caravan"), but very nice nonetheless.
	11:39am Cecile: And i learned about Eligh and the Grouch from Billy Jam!
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: That and the Miracles earlier worth the entrance fee alone. Better go and slide into my flares and afghan. See you later.
	11:42am Sem Chumbo: Cryin' my eyes out. Nice going, Joe.
	11:42am Cecile: And I do need to get to the 5th Element. Never had the chance to get there, and it sounds like a place I'd love.
	11:44am fred: @Cecile: Looks like they're in the lineup this year too, and its a few weeks away: www.soundsetfestival.com
	11:46am Cecile: oooh, Qbert. And I like Toki Wright. I'd probably hang out in the DJ tent all day. I should see if my friend Dave wants to go. He likes Atmosphere and all that. I have still never been to a live rap show.
	11:47am Greg from Bloomfield: For real, Joe. I often find myself needing to steel myself emotionally for the back end of your show.
	11:48am Cecile: wow, this is new Real Kids?
	11:49am Greg from Bloomfield: JOJO
	11:50am Sem Chumbo: Had a fine time this morning, JM. Thanks a bunch and see you next time!
	11:52am V Priceless: thanks Joe! Fine program, as usual!
	11:53am common: thank you joe! thank you cliff edwards.
	11:55am dennis diken: quite the diggable show Joe!
	11:55am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:56am SeanG: hot damn!
	11:57am Joe McG: Wow, thanks, Dennis! Have a great week everyone, and thanks so much for listening and commenting.
	11:57am Brendan: So long Joe and thank you.
	👻 11:57am 12539: Thanks, Joe.
	11:58am fred: What? No Voivod this week? A fine show nonetheless, and for a change I didn't have work getting in the way
	11:58am davex: Thanks for broadcasting, Joe!
	8:49pm Holly in NC: xoxo great show, Joe. Sleaford Mods, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. Tommy Roe! That's a Joe show! :-)

	9:17am fred: Good morning Joe, guten TZAG everyone Will this show feature some Voivod for mother's day?
	9:18am Joe McG: Hey, Brian! Brendan, KP, DCE, Guido, HEAT, common...@Santos: More will be going out of house soon, so keep standing by your mailbox!
	9:20am Parq: Hya, Joe. This Wyatt cover is outstanding!
	9:20am HEAT: HULLO KP KP KP
	9:22am Sem Chumbo: Hiya, Joe and all. Garden a little, listen a little. Feel like I am missing out on something devoting all my time to one or the other:)
	9:23am KP: There is an amazing video Wyatt and an all-star band doing Im a Believer on the Old Grey Whistle test. His original cover of it was a huge hit for him and i think the first thing he did after his accident.
	9:23am Joe McG: Heya, Sem, Parq, VP! @Fred: You know I always play Voivod every show, Fred!
	9:25am Cecile: Hullo!
	9:26am Rev. Turnip Druid: .........peeple.
	9:27am HEAT: Hi Cecile!!
	9:27am Roberto: Keep it loud, Joe. Gotta drown out the clowns sitting next to me at the office.
	9:27am KP: The Association was first the real band i ever saw. I usually say the Who, who i witnessed at same place a week later, in their Happy Jack stage. But it was the Association.
	9:28am Michele: Good morning everyone! Hi Joe, I'm excited for some rainy day music!
	9:28am SeanG: Rock on Joe--last night I listened to the Ramases segment of your show last week-awesome--Hello everyone!
	👻 9:30am Brian in UK: perfect ironing music, marvy
	9:30am Glenn m: My clients are fans
	9:31am Joe McG: Hey ,Cecile! Michele! Hey, Glenn! @SeanG: I've gotten a lot of nice comments on last week's show. Maybe I should do more interviews!
	9:31am Looms: Hi Joe & everyone! Glad to be home and listening, loved the Miracles song.
	9:32am Cecile: hey heat! all!
	9:32am Van in DC: Greetings! Almost managed to miss the entire first set!
	9:35am V Priceless: very cool Joe! have to score that Rhino anth! Hey 10Cecile! Ha! @ KP - Association were actually real players when it came to performing live, back in the day! Really fine musicians, IMO - and of course, the 6-part harmonies are mind-blowing! Not lots of actual live film footage around though - I've only seen maybe 3 or 4 actual live clips from '66-'69 era.
	9:37am Joe McG: Hey Looms! Hey, Van! Archives are immortal. @KP: Envious! @VP: For Larry Ramos, R.I.P.
	9:38am V Priceless: Thanks Joe! You rock!
	9:38am Cheri Pi: Suh Seal!
	9:39am PKNY: Man, this Calvin Harris is one smooth slow burner. Nice!
	9:40am Cecile: PI
	9:41am KP: i was watching one of those Ch. 13 folkie fundraisers and they showed the New Christy Minstrels. I thought i recognized Ramos oof the Association and sure enough just read it was him. There are also clips of them with Gene Clark, who even then looks every bit the star (that was not on the fundraiser).
	9:41am Alessia: Hi Joe! I like THIS Calvin Harris
	9:42am KP: But seeing the early Who obliterated just about everything about the Association show, and everything else.
	9:43am Van in DC: ha!
	9:44am Cecile: I want to be sitting on my couch drinking cocoa at home.
	9:44am Cecile: the city smells like a giant, drunk wet dog when it rains.
	9:44am Guido from Cologne: association-wise I just say "Pandora's Golden Heebie Jeebies".
	9:45am KP: Cecile, Woof!
	9:46am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning Joltin' Joe + everybody!
	9:46am Guido from Cologne: witnessing the Who in the 60ies, this must have been a blast ...
	9:46am Cecile: Tim Huey used that cover as inspiration for their cover of I'm a Believer.
	9:48am Guido from Cologne: ... now I'm really glad i decided for those "Hippies" premium.
	9:48am Cecile: Hey Jude was written to cheer up Julian Lennon.
	9:50am Cecile: Sonny's comeback show was the talk of the town here.
	9:50am Van in DC: This is what he's talking about?
	9:51am Alessia: Hey Joe are you playing with the microphone? I can't hear you clearly, the sound seems to cut.
	9:52am Roberto: This will do nicely. Thanks Joe!
	9:52am Joe McG: @Alessia: I wasn't, but I'm going to pay a little more attention! Maybe I was talking off mic and not realizing it. Just shaking off the sleepies!
	9:53am common: now i can listen...for moments or ...yes.
	9:53am DCE: I'm glad Sonny Knight didn't name his band the "Fabulous Clippers"
	9:55am Cecile: It would have been funny if he named his band "The Fabulous Vikings"
	9:56am Alessia: Ahaha sorry I didn't mean to sound reproaching, just to know if it's you or my internet connection :)
	9:57am KP: Guido, just noticed your comment re: the Who. They still had the styled hair and sequined suits and did a lot of harmonies over a raging wall of sound. I was in fourth row in front of Townshend. I saw them many times after that but nothing compared. I never warmed to the synth sound and and preferred Daltrey's smooth high voice to his ragged screaming one. but i of course love them always.
	9:58am Van in DC: This reminds me to loop back to listen to Julie's show earlier...
	9:58am Joe McG: @Alessia: No, Alessia, it's good to know! Did I sound funny to anybody else? Maybe there's a problem here. @Van: Yes, ZZ were on Julie's show earlier today. Check the archive, folks!
	👻 9:58am 12539: Looking forward to hearing Zombie Zombie on Julie's show last night.
	10:00am Greg from Bloomfield: The panic that ZZ's drummer inspired in the female staffers has inspired me to move my hi-hat down closer to my snare. Apparently I need to be working the shoulders more...
	10:05am ?: Ubu!
	10:05am V Priceless: ubu!!!
	10:05am ?: Firsties
	10:08am common: and again, joe. i star-click the whole show!
	10:09am Joe McG: I like seeing stars!
	10:11am Guido from Cologne: @KP I must confess I kinda envy you! That was the most stylish period and groundbreaking work ... and from what i see in the filmed-footage and in those days, when "hard rock" wasn't a common thing ... that must have been an experience!
	10:18am βrian: Bonjour à tous.
	10:18am common: @greg: just saw your post about the hi-hat/snare placement. it's always been hard for me to get that right. when it is though, and i forget what that is for me - then don't change. just a feeling i had reading that. gotta get back in there with that shit. me.
	10:19am common: that made no sense. sorry.
	10:20am KP: Guido it was like Quick One from Rock N Roll Circus except they looked completely different even though that was later same year.
	10:23am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: I just validated myself by star-clicking Wild Billy Chyldish.
	10:24am SeanG: Chatham!
	10:25am Alessia: sleaford mooooods!
	10:25am βrian: That sounds oddly suggestive. "He blushed deeply, then moved his high-hat closer to his snare."
	10:26am Alessia: To me it's a bit "Suicide meets Mike Skinner"
	10:27am fred: @Alessia: when are you going to a show? I haven't seen you and Pierre in a while
	10:27am Cheri Pi: I MISSED CHILDISH???? Damn you office microwave.
	10:27am common: YESSS!!!!!! gimcp
	10:28am Rev. Turnip Druid: What common yesssss'd.
	10:29am common: this is one of the best covers i've now heard!!! my favorite fall song by them!!!
	10:29am βrian: Having just downed a triple espresso, I'm achieveing harmonic convergence.
	10:30am Rev. Turnip Druid: christ on a cripple, that was astounding.
	10:31am Brendan: Dog is my co-pilot
	10:32am βrian: J'adore Brigitte !
	10:32am ?: (Father) Yod is my co-pilot
	10:32am Alessia: Ciao fred! It's true! we are going tonight to see a friend playing at the Lavoir Moderne Parisien in 35, rue léon, 75018. But it's probably going to be a very crappy one, come if you want! And Saturday we go to see AUN at La fleche d'or. Then we will be a la villette sonique, for Man or Astroman and Meridian Brothers. Here you are our petit plan but we are up for suggestions!
	10:33am Guido from Cologne: @KP ... yeah the best Who ever! I'm glad enough that film material exists. we never would get the idea. I'm still angry on German TV that they changed "Beat Club" to full playback during the most intersting years (mid 1966 to mid 1968) mostly. what a shame! And I cannot praise AFN enough for keeping it live all the time!
	10:33am johnforz: it's on Pere Ubu's latest LP - Lady from Shanghai
	10:34am johnforz: which is a great record btw...
	10:35am fred: @Alessia: Charlotte told me about it, so I'm definitely going to be there tonight!
	10:35am common: hey joe. again...!!!
	10:36am Greg from Bloomfield: Close Encounters! (Right? I'm not just imagining that?)
	10:37am Joe McG: @Greg: I don't think you are imagining it!
	10:38am Listener David: The opening flying saucer noises are from the British scifi show, "UFO"
	10:38am Greg from Bloomfield: Scott played WP on Monday, and I just listened to "Take Me I'm Yours" on the train...Gedge getting love!
	10:39am Joe McG: @LDavid: Excellent info, thanks!
	10:40am Alessia: @fred Ah! You know CHarlotte too!That's fantastic! so we'll have a beer together later :) See you in a couple of hours
	10:48am DCE: cool tune, Tommy Roe
	10:49am Cecile: Jeezus! That was a death song! How could that be a death song?
	10:49am duke: Hi all, cool version of The Bottle
	10:50am Cecile: Great cover
	10:52am Cecile: bows head in respect
	10:53am blee: Very nice!
	10:54am Greg from Bloomfield: One of those sad songs that makes you boogie. Like "Hey Ya."
	10:55am blee: My 4 year old daughter is stomp dancing to Gil-Scott Heron
	10:56am Nardo: Top shelf 'single file' this morning, Joe!
	10:57am Joe McG: @blee: Excellent! @Nardo: Thanks! Cheated a little, since the two bottles weren't random! But Gil always sounds good.
	10:57am ᏠЄႶႶỊѺµЄ: Terry is singing my life story. You are rockin' the singles today Joe!
	👻 10:57am Brian in UK: Sliding out to see Nick Lowe supported by John Doe tonight.
	10:58am Joe McG: @Brian: Jealous! Tell Nick I said hello and that I love him. @Jennique: I hope you didn't have to change your seat too many times in the movies!
	10:59am Cecile: this should have been a hit.
	11:00am Guido from Cologne: Sidewalk Skipper Band: instant star-click
	👻 11:01am Brian in UK: Just converted 30lbs of strawberries into jam.
	11:01am V Priceless: so much for Taco Tuesdays!
	11:01am Guido from Cologne: the should-be-hits- are the best
	11:02am SmokinJ: Sidewalk Skippers! Used to see them play the C.Y.O. dances!
	11:05am Brendan: StawberryAlarmClockFieldsForever
	11:05am Jeff: I still don't understand how it can be Strawberry Tuesday when it's actually Thursday. I guess that's why it's sike-a-dellik.
	11:08am Guido from Cologne: sold my "paint your wagon" LP away recently.
	11:12am Joe McG: @SmokinJ: Really? What were they like?
	11:14am isslaw: This sounds more like the original Michael Rother version at 33 rpm.
	11:14am Cecile: this is nice, and reminds me of Pell Mell
	11:14am Mike East: My wife thinks my William Tyler album is my favorite record, but its just the one I play most consistently at the same time. I gotta this new one.
	11:15am DCE: I read about this record t'other day, was interested to hear it
	11:16am Cecile: makes me want to go listen to Interstate.
	11:18am Greg from Bloomfield: LOVE this.
	11:19am Andrew Waterloo: wow.. thought i was hearing a new Japancakes track for a second.
	11:19am Sandy in Houston: There is a meat puppets song that has same melody I think.
	11:21am Cecile: This would be better if Jerry Reed was singing it.
	11:22am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jerry Reed!
	11:23am Joe McG: @Cecile: Ha ha! I think that's a general rule.
	11:23am rsj: this is great!
	11:23am DCE: add a little cajun growl and some sweet electric pickin'? hell yeah!
	11:24am DCE: also, bump up the bpm to 120
	11:24am blee: I love this song.
	11:25am Mike East: I think I heard a cursey word in there.
	11:26am SmokinJ: @Joe McG: The Skippers were a dynamite band. I used to see em' a lot. Still local to Brew City where I'm at :)
	11:26am Cecile: here's Jerry's version of nearly the exact same situation: www.youtube.com...
	11:27am Joe McG: Not so bad, Mike. He didn't use it in the scatological way.
	11:27am Cecile: No that's not the song I'm thinking of. But, you can never go wrong with a little Jerry Reed.
	11:27am Joe McG: @Cecile: You are the biggest Jerry Reed fan I ever knew. I'll have to play some Jerry one of these weeks.
	11:28am Mike East: I was not offended :)
	11:28am Jeff: Nice shoutout in the song to noted guitarist Nels Cline WHO WAS JUST HERE AT WFMU (playing with Cibo Matto)
	11:29am Cecile: You don't know many Jerry Reed fans, do you Joe? I mention him in bars up north, and people get misty.
	11:31am Jeff: Obligatory picture link: www.flickr.com...
	11:31am Cecile: Here's the right song: www.youtube.com...
	11:31am pollen: i'd rather hear jimmy reed sing it
	11:31am Kurt Gottschalk: joe, dude, i have a lot of work to get done. please quit killing it so much.
	11:33am Joe McG: Aw, Kurt, you rule.
	11:36am Cecile: Any Mark Kozelek song would be improved by a Jerry Clower cameo.
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: Nice one, Joe.
	11:37am fred: @Cecile: Billy Jam has played a MC from Mpls called Mally. I'm more interested in DJs, but he's pretty good. Seems related to the 5th element/Rhymesayers/Soundset crowd. I like it when I get a handwritten not with a CD. Soundset looks like a fine festival
	11:37am Joe McG: @Brian: In honor of your Nick Lowe gig tonight!
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: Never forget that hype where they were sent over to NY.
	11:39am Cecile: I want to go to Soundset some year. I'm not so excited about Mpls rap except for Bro Ali, but last year they had Eligh and the Grouch who reportedly killed it.
	11:39am Joe McG: @Brian: This number is showing their roots a bit (it's very close to "Caravan"), but very nice nonetheless.
	11:39am Cecile: And i learned about Eligh and the Grouch from Billy Jam!
	👻 11:41am Brian in UK: That and the Miracles earlier worth the entrance fee alone. Better go and slide into my flares and afghan. See you later.
	11:42am Sem Chumbo: Cryin' my eyes out. Nice going, Joe.
	11:42am Cecile: And I do need to get to the 5th Element. Never had the chance to get there, and it sounds like a place I'd love.
	11:44am fred: @Cecile: Looks like they're in the lineup this year too, and its a few weeks away: www.soundsetfestival.com
	11:46am Cecile: oooh, Qbert. And I like Toki Wright. I'd probably hang out in the DJ tent all day. I should see if my friend Dave wants to go. He likes Atmosphere and all that. I have still never been to a live rap show.
	11:47am Greg from Bloomfield: For real, Joe. I often find myself needing to steel myself emotionally for the back end of your show.
	11:48am Cecile: wow, this is new Real Kids?
	11:49am Greg from Bloomfield: JOJO
	11:50am Sem Chumbo: Had a fine time this morning, JM. Thanks a bunch and see you next time!
	11:52am V Priceless: thanks Joe! Fine program, as usual!
	11:53am common: thank you joe! thank you cliff edwards.
	11:55am dennis diken: quite the diggable show Joe!
	11:55am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:56am SeanG: hot damn!
	11:57am Joe McG: Wow, thanks, Dennis! Have a great week everyone, and thanks so much for listening and commenting.
	11:57am Brendan: So long Joe and thank you.
	👻 11:57am 12539: Thanks, Joe.
	11:58am fred: What? No Voivod this week? A fine show nonetheless, and for a change I didn't have work getting in the way
	11:58am davex: Thanks for broadcasting, Joe!
	8:49pm Holly in NC: xoxo great show, Joe. Sleaford Mods, Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. Tommy Roe! That's a Joe show! :-)
