	👻 9:07am 12539: Feliz aniversario, doca!
	9:08am doca: I've once read a piece on Peggy Lee the jazz cellist in which an old lady went to see her show in Vancouver only to discover that it wasn't Peggy Lee the singer (and forgetting that she was already deceased by the time of the article)
	9:08am Guido from Cologne: Happy birthday, doca! Happy birthday, Dagmar Krause!
	9:09am doca: Thanks, Guido, Joe and 12539! Oh Dagmar Krause's birthday was yesterday...I guess I'll have to stick with Mark Wahlberg and Pancho Villa
	9:10am DCE: morning, all

	9:11am Sem Chumbo: @doca: um marco importan!

	9:16am V Priceless: Happy Birthday doca!
	9:16am doca: @V: depends on your time zone... @dc: haha I think time makes things easier, or so I like to believe it
	9:19am nah: Hiya
	9:19am Parq: Enjoying this classy opening set, Joe. Thanks for playing this Hume; I've never heard the verse to "If I Could Be" before.
	9:21am Joe McG: @Parq: Thanks for helping out at the Record Fair! Thanks to everyone who came out and said hello!
	9:22am Guido from Cologne: Diggin' the selections Joe! The right stuff for me in the moment!
	👻 9:23am 12539: The day sure goes by quick when you start it by closing your eyes.
	9:25am Joe McG: @12539: Ha ha! As long as you don't open them again until it gets dark.
	9:25am common: 12539, joe indeed
	9:28am Parq: This is bringing back pleasant memories of riding with my Dad in his car in the 70s, listening to WNEW-AM. That's when I first came to like this kind of music.
	9:29am Joe McG: @Parq: I'm your ersatz Jonathan Schwartz for this morning. He's not on this early, so...
	9:30am Fernando M P: Feliz aniversário @doca!
	9:31am doca: Valeu, Fernando!
	9:31am d¢ pät: I feel like my dad...
	9:32am common: I feel like my dad, dcp. why is that?
	9:33am Laura L: An opening set to bring back memories real or imagined.... Thanks, Joe--it's perfection.
	9:34am doca: I feel like I'm listening to Monica, specially those last songs she used to play.
	9:35am DeaconDave: Nice start this morning Joe
	9:35am d¢ pät: Becuase this is music he might have liked.
	9:35am doca: @Joe: what's your background music now?
	9:37am Parq: Doca, the Monica connection definitely came to my mind too,
	9:39am common: oui
	9:40am Michele: Good Morning Joe
	9:41am Joe McG: Why, good morning, dear Michele!
	9:41am V Priceless: nice!
	9:41am nickybones: good to meet you, too, joe! fun volleying with you at the swag table sunday!

	9:44am Marcel M: Hi Joe. Was nice to meet you Sunday.
	9:44am nickybones: absolutely! loving the show today. perfect for drying off at my desk.
	9:45am Joe McG: You, too, Marcel! You and your wife are such nice people!
	9:47am Marcel M: Aw, shucks, you too! Digging this Gipsy Rhumba!
	9:47am Guido from Cologne: Doors?
	9:47am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, Joe + everybody! Hope I didn't miss too many Record Fair Finds...
	9:47am V Priceless: cool meeting u Sunday, Joe! Also meant to say thanks for all your help with the marathon swag, too! : )
	9:48am Cecile: hola! busy! But I'll try to poke my head in later in the show.
	9:48am d¢ pät: Wow, FMU dj actually played the Doors??? ROCK!
	9:48am Michele: JOE! The Doors???! Awesome!
	9:48am Cecile: Scott played a deep cut on Monday.
	9:49am DCE: always makes me think of that one summer...
	9:49am Sem Chumbo: Ahhn-day-lou-CHEEE-ahhh.
	9:50am Jim Price: Way to go Joe! The Lizard King lives!
	9:50am common: fuck yes
	9:50am Cecile: I wish he had been a real lizard, though.
	9:51am Cecile: or half man, half lizard.
	9:51am Joe McG: @Scott: That Doors cut goes out to Scott Williams and Jim Price!
	👻 9:51am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, thought Monica had taken this slot in the Summer schedules. I can dream, no offence. It rained in the night here and there was a wonderful fragrance in the air walking to work, bit autuminal. Joe, did you see me waving at the record fair. You would have needed eyes of an elf.
	9:52am Sem Chumbo: @Cecile: which end up?
	9:52am Joe McG: @Brian: I dedicate the first set to Monica, who we all miss. Yes, Brian, you were the guy with the pointed hat.
	9:52am Cecile: It's up to the mad scientist doing the unholy experiments.
	9:53am Cecile: what happend to Monica?
	9:53am V Priceless: gotta be the bottom half of Morrison, so he could have a tail, no?
	9:54am Sem Chumbo: EX-cellent. An Island of Dr. Moreau thing.
	9:54am Marcel M: Members of Talibam! USA is a Monster and Necking.... nice.
	9:55am d¢ pät: oh so Williams started the Doors trend, eh? I think you all should keep it going...
	9:55am DCE: Alien Whale, knocking it out of the universe
	9:55am Joe McG: @Cecile: Nothin'! She's just taking some time off.
	9:55am Cheri Pi: I approve this Alien Whale.
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: It goes with my pointy head.
	9:56am d¢ pät: yeah, this is the goodest.
	9:56am V Priceless: note to closet proggers: King Crimson tix on sale tomorrow - this time out, featuring THREE drummers & Mel Collins!
	9:56am Cecile: oh, thank God. You get to be a certain age and you just never know.
	9:56am Joe McG: @dc pat: Who will be next to play a cut from "Waiting for the Sun"? Which, come to think of it, would be a better track for the likes of today...
	9:56am Cecile: VP - that sounds both exciting and horrifying at the same time.
	9:57am Cecile: which kind of sums up the career of King Crimson.
	9:57am Santos L Halper: Swallowed by the whale...and loving it!
	9:57am Marcel M: I can't decide if I want to go see King Crimson or not..
	9:57am Marcel M: But I'm certainly going to buy Sleep tickets tomorrow.
	9:58am d¢ pät: lot of choices from that album..
	9:58am V Priceless: @ Cecile - I know exactly what you mean!
	9:58am KK: i'm likin the alien whale too Cheri Pi. perfect rainy day noize
	👻 9:58am Brian in UK: @VP I was boasting on Bill Mac's show that I have 'In the Court of the Crimson King' Parts 1&2 45rpm. VG condition. Offers. Fripp looks like someones grandad.
	9:59am Cecile: they give you Starless and Bible Black. And then they give you Beat and The Power to Believe.
	9:59am V Priceless: Alien Whale got me thinkin' of ol' Fripper!
	9:59am Cecile: I once called him in a review "the stern and withholding father figure of progressive rock." hahahhaha
	10:01am Cecile: this is really Andy Kim, right? :D
	👻 10:02am Brian in UK: Grocer Jack.
	10:03am V Priceless: @ Cecile - "stern" seems as representative a word as any, in many respects. Or maybe...ahem...."disciplined"!
	10:03am common: @marcel: which members of talibam?
	10:05am d¢ pät: Yeah, King Crimson's great and all but there is now ONE WEEK UNTIL THE WORLD CUP! I better start hearing a LOT of futbol songs, dammit!
	10:05am sugarwolf: sylvie!!
	10:05am Cecile: disciplined, but also slightly disapproving of people not exhibiting the right amount of seriousness in his mind. And since he's the boss, this amount of seriousouss is subject to his whims...
	10:05am V Priceless: be interesting to see if Fripp will be packing a Mellotron on this tour, even though that's a bit an oxymoron statement.
	10:06am Cecile: hope he doesn't scratch it. ;)
	10:06am V Priceless: ooh!! Great KINKS tune!! Woo-hoo!!
	10:07am d¢ pät: KKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
	10:07am Lewis: @dc pat: do I recall correctly that (was if 4 years ago!) you were going to build a big white board bracket? if so - how did that work out?
	👻 10:07am Brian in UK: @d¢ pät Ever heard 'Fitball Crazy' by two Scotsmen, Robin Hall & Jimmy Macgregor?
	10:08am Cheri Pi: you could also be describing Michael Gira, who likes to start a show off with a good tisk-tisking of the audience.
	10:08am Cheri Pi: What pät shrieked.
	10:08am Cecile: Just play some Crazy Frog. Michael Gira is hilarious!
	10:09am Cecile: pat, you should go on Sportsy Talk.
	10:09am Cheri Pi: I can no longer ever take Gira seriously again. it has to be some kind of schtick, right?
	10:10am d¢ pät: @Lewis: you are quite correct. I'm sorry to report that I bailed on that concept and just bought a bracket poster. I got too many irons in too many fires and can't make EVERYTHING... @Brian: nope
	10:10am Cecile: Even Nick Cave got tired of being NICK CAVE
	10:10am Guido from Cologne: Good old Beta Band!
	10:10am d¢ pät: @'cile: I would never talk sports with sports fans. That gives me the creeps...
	10:11am Marcel M: @common: Matt Mottel
	10:11am Cecile: great stuff. held up well. But it's Bronwyn and Jay the Poet. They don't know shit about sports, and if they do, they think they are kind of stupid. They read haiku at NFL media day for chrissakes!
	10:12am Guido from Cologne: Nick Cave gettin tired ofbeing Nick Cave I can so easily imagine ..
	10:12am Lewis: @dc pat - i hear you! so many good ideas, so little time! Enjoy the proceedings!
	10:12am d¢ pät: oh, didn't know that. Sounds kind of good.
	10:13am Cecile: it's kind of awesome.
	10:13am Scott Williams: at Primavera a few years ago, Gira was shouting from the stage "WFMU - FUCK YOU!" He came over to the tent later to ask if we heard it - cute joke: turns out Swans were listening to Ween's "Reggaejunkiejew" all day.
	10:13am Guido from Cologne: You should see our "expert soccer trainers" in our pubs here. You couldn't help loughing out!
	10:14am Cecile: aw, that's kind of coo. BUt they are still kind of dopey.
	10:14am Scott Williams: PS - HI JOE! Thanks for the Doors dedication, and for not playing "Running Blue"
	10:14am common: @scott: that makes sense.
	10:14am d¢ pät: I went to a local Liverpool-supporting bar to watch one of the last matches of the season and that creeped me right-the-fuck out. It was like a cult.
	10:14am Marcel M: @Scott, Brian Turner told me that story, he told me he said something like, "Spain, overthrow your government, WFMU, FUCK YOU!" Classic...
	10:14am common: @cecile: you've made me think about that a lot.
	10:15am Joe McG: @Scott: "Running Blue"! THAT's the name of that horrible thing.
	10:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: hey youse guys. ...and youse other guys.
	10:16am Cecile: Dear world, please stop making good music. And destroy all the good music I don't know about from the past. I just...don't...have...time.
	10:16am V Priceless: wow - Matthew Fisher! Cool! Joe's on fire, despite all this rain!
	10:16am d¢ pät: ooo, you want to stay far far away from Soft Parade...
	10:16am Cecile: I guess I could move to Iran, but the TV is terrible there, I've heard.
	10:16am Marcel M: That he came over to the tent after to ask if you heard it makes Gira seem more cute and endearing.
	10:17am Cecile: I think he needs to do a stunt cover. Also an appearance on Bob's Burgers. Then I might rethink him,
	10:17am Whosondephone: RIOT - ON!
	10:18am Cecile: Morrison Hotel is pretty damn solid
	10:18am d¢ pät: ^^^ what Cecile said...another reason I didn't make the giant bracket poster...
	10:19am Cheri Pi: that's a cute story SW. I'll reconsider my stance with a sense of humor.
	10:19am Cecile: What did I say, common?
	10:20am common: talking about swans, cecile. just that whole thingy.
	10:20am Cecile: ah, cool.
	10:22am Scott Williams: @Marcel, good to meet you at the Record Fair! Thanks for all yours & Missus Marcel's help
	10:23am Rev. Turnip Druid: Scott W. Mantis!
	10:23am Marcel M: @Scott, no problem, it was fun! I want to volunteer more. Too bad I have that annoying thing called a job on the weekdays.
	10:24am Lewis: @Marcel M - aint that the truth - and mine is in Mpls...
	10:24am tinfoil_roof_rack: That Fisher track was excellent!
	10:25am Cecile: yeah, mine too, Lewis. Just a little inconvenient...
	10:26am Marcel M: @Lewis, yes that would be quite the commute!
	10:26am Lewis: @Cecile - yeah there are a few of us in the twin cities, but probably not enough to merit a record fair...
	10:27am Greg from Bloomfield: Holy smokes am I upset that I missed him now.
	10:27am Cecile: ah, you are right Lewis. Maybe a meet up some year?
	10:27am Slater: this DM is great
	10:28am Cecile: dan melchior for World Emperor.
	10:28am Marcel M: He's really giving it to the Brooklyn kids.
	10:28am Scott Williams: Hahaaa... @Cecile & @Lewis, we did have 2 Minneapolitan volunteers at the fair this weekend. Oh, and a new intern started yesterday. Is Minneapolis the latest breeding ground for NYC emigres?
	10:28am Guido from Cologne: Dan Melchior instantly stands out ... magical ...
	10:29am Santos L Halper: Rock out Dan!
	10:29am adam_nspy: Ripping
	10:29am Lewis: @Cecile - a meet up is probably more to the scale… it is on that list of so many good ideas!
	10:31am Lewis: @Scott - there is definitely a growing flow music wise. My step son is home after graduating from Sarah Lawrence and is vacillating between twin cities and nyc… he is a composer ...
	10:31am Guido from Cologne: ... ah ... enjoyed the terre t. - stream live ... but this is even better ..
	10:32am Cecile: Scott, as much as Detroit and Ann Arbor seem to be almost bedroom communities for NYC.
	10:32am Sem Chumbo: Saw the whole Melchior set from the Record Fair. Just great!
	10:33am KP: Hullo, Joe
	10:33am Cecile: Twin Cities has a seriously good trad and modern classical scene. Innova is out of here.
	10:34am common: yo, philly record exchange!
	10:34am KP: urgh, interviews
	10:35am DeaconDave: yo, Princeton Record Exchange
	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Speaking of job interviews: The missus just gave notice at current (hellhole) employer. After a couple years of sneaky interviewing, finally... sweet relief...
	10:36am Cecile: yayay for missus rev
	10:36am bobdoesthings: morning all... man am I really late to work today sheeesh...
	10:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: There's also "I Wanna Be Lazy" by Kin Ping Meh, if there's a theme to be had here...
	10:37am Marcel M: Whats up Bob. Two days in a row?!
	10:37am Cheri Pi: Horn rock!
	10:38am Joe McG: @Rev: Good one!
	10:38am d¢ pät: Nice Rev.. mrs. dc pat is in a similar hellhole boat right now. Nice to know there is hope.
	10:40am bobdoesthings: @marcel.. well yesterday was only like 20 mins late... this morning I forgot to set alarms and am over an hour late and now im chatting it ip on the comments boards.. Im the worst
	10:40am bobdoesthings's boss: Uh bob, can you step into my office for a minute?...
	10:40am Rev. Turnip Druid: DCP: there is indeed hope, but in her case it took a crazy long time. The scenario is tough: us professional-grade persons "of a certain age" competing with recent grads who will work for peanuts & have no combat experience...
	10:41am bobdoesthings: oh no! boss.
	10:43am d¢ pät: nail on the head @rev. You gotta balance how much bullshit you can take in the comfort of the current job with the never ending fraying of interviewing for another possible hellhole...
	10:43am Marcel M: Oh boy, be a good boy Bob!
	10:43am Lewis: @Rev. gets a bit nail-bitey doesn't it!
	10:43am Marcel M: The WFMU comments board reminds me of this: xkcd.com...
	10:44am Greg from Bloomfield: I wonder what this place's policy is re: freelancers jumping up and dancing on their desks...
	10:44am Cecile: hahhahahha, marcel. I love that cartoon. Rev, and Lewis, looking forward to that scenario once I finish my graphic design certificate.
	10:44am common: dcp: absotutely
	10:45am Rev. Turnip Druid: No slamdancing, no desk-diving.
	10:46am bobdoesthings: @Marcel... awww
	10:46am Marcel M: @Cecile: Me too, I have a programmer friend who loves it and I only really know it through the ones he sends me. He has witnessed me on here before and sent that to me.
	10:46am Cecile: Sylvia Robinson - it's good to be the Queen.
	10:46am Marcel M: @Bob I'm getting all Maudlin with this music.
	10:47am Marcel M: I have a confession to make. I say no to clients so I can hear certain favorite shows live. Haha
	10:48am bobdoesthings: @marcel. if you told that to andy breckman he'd make fun of you for sure.
	10:49am Lewis: @Cecile - keep me posted, we have a group that uses freelancers and I could make introductions...
	10:49am KK: @marcel wow that xkcd goes right to the feels. also re: turning down clients...you've got your priorities in check!
	👻 10:49am Brian in UK: @Marcel you are on the twelve step AWAY programme.
	10:49am Marcel M: @BOB, but he would also be surprised I had a job. And maybe impressed, since he doesn't believe that WFMU listeners are employed. I feel like he would go, "Awww... thats the sweetest thing I've ever heard." In his mocking voice.
	10:50am Marcel M: @KK Yep, I need my WFMU time!
	10:50am doca: @Joe: thanks for the wonderful show so far! I'll catch the rest later from the archives
	10:50am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Cecile: early congrats on that certificate! @Lewis 10:43 -- nail-bitey? Hell yes. After getting restructured out of a longtime gig, it took 17 months of hunting & freelancing before finding another FT position. It's nuts.
	10:50am Van in DC: Ah so this is the Kitty Wells that Laura so dearly loves
	10:50am Joe McG: @doca: Have a great, great b'day!
	10:51am Marcel M: @Brian Hah, and I think I'll stay right there.
	10:52am KK: I missed terre t's last show because of a -- get this -- a friend's wedding! can you believe it!
	10:52am common: kitty wells just sang my theme.
	10:52am Lewis: @van - Indeed!
	10:53am doca: Thanks, @Joe! @Cecile: You were not here when I metaphorically payed everyone a round of limoncello for my birthday
	10:53am Cecile: That is so cool, Lewis. I gotta get some more work under my belt, but I might take you up on it.
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Are these last two both 1973? You could carbon date River City easily not Kitty.
	10:53am Cecile: nice, doca!
	10:53am ChrisB.: This tune defies belief. and is that a mellotron?
	10:54am V Priceless: @ ChrisB - sure sounds like one!
	10:55am Joe McG: @Chris: Yes, it sure IS!
	10:55am Lewis: @Cecile - no prob, standing by
	👻 10:55am Brian in UK: Mellotrons come in lightweight packages these days.
	10:56am northguineahills: In the last 2.5 years, after leaving a four year gig, the most permanent gigs I've had were two 6 month gigs. Still endlessly phone interviewing. The positive ones have about 6 weeks before the second interview, etc. So much fun!
	👻 10:58am Brian in UK: Could someone rename Human Resources, Ignorant Motherfu
	10:58am V Priceless: @ Brian - not the REAL ones! Still being manufactured by hand in your neck of the woods by Streetly!
	10:59am Cecile: Brian, I resemble that remark.... hahah
	👻 11:00am Brian in UK: @VP I had these in mind. www.mellotron.com...
	11:01am V Priceless: @Brian - I've seen those! Here's the link to the real deal - pretty fascinating stuff: www.mellotronics.com
	11:02am Tome: Hello and good Morning .. gonna be a fab June indeedy.
	11:02am KK: signin off for today, later!
	11:03am bobdoesthings: eeeek.. with that laugh, I'd avoid this girl. dealbreaker.
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: @VP I like the idea of a REAL mellotron. Spotted in the wilds of Borneo.
	11:03am Joe McG: Hello Tome, goodbye KK!
	11:04am V Priceless: @bobdoes...agreed! Sheesh!
	👻 11:04am 12539: She sounds like she has a pull string in her back.
	11:04am Van in DC: So the Smithsonian American Indian museum (where the Mitsitam cafe is) is having a Bolivian fest today. Looks my lunch today will consist of: Mondogo-Chili Braised Pork, Alligator Chicharron, and Bolivian Peanut Soup, and a Bolivian Milk Chocolate Quinoa Banana Bar for dessert. Yum.
	11:05am Cecile: Yum is right.
	11:05am Tome: nice run of 7" numbers as always Joe wtg !! glad to catch it as it's happening too this morning .
	11:06am Mike East: @Van - I am incredibly jealous. Good morning, all.
	11:07am Glenn m: Good morning!
	11:07am Van in DC: I take full advantage of working right next to the National Mall in DC...
	11:07am d¢ pät: Am. Indian museum cafe rules. even if you don't eat alligator...
	11:08am Greg from Bloomfield: My old high school band (The Manny Trillo) covered a Lois song! I think it was called "The Trouble With Me."
	11:08am Cheri Pi: mmmmm...Indian
	11:10am Van in DC: I caught Laura's set on ustream, she was GREAT
	11:12am Tome: ..unless it's a brooklyn italian/irish wedding of course ...
	11:12am common: does alligator taste like alligator, dcp?
	11:13am thedunkel: @JoeMcGasko they were great picks for liz !
	11:14am Joe McG: Thanks, thedunkel! It was really fun!
	11:15am Marcel M: Joe, what did you say about The Obelisk guy? I missed it.
	11:15am bobdoesthings: @marcel.. he'll be on diane's show next
	11:16am Joe McG: @Marcel: He does this heavy web site and he's going to be spinning with Diane between 12 and 3.
	11:16am Marcel M: Ahhh I see.
	11:16am Marcel M: Cool thanks BOB and Joe.
	11:17am T_Jay Pauli: keep pumpin the drums of self promotion .. i mean search, and love ...
	11:17am Cecile: alligator IME tastes like tough fishy chicken. I might need to try it again.
	11:17am Marcel M: Off to work. Bye everyone.
	11:18am Dean: "The Obelisk guy?" That's a coincidence, because I wanted to ask Van in DC if he'd had a chance to mosey over toward Dupont Circle to dine at a restaurant called Obelisk.
	11:18am northguineahills: I've only had gator tail, and love it. Of course, just deep fried since it was FL.
	11:18am bobdoesthings: adios marcel
	11:19am Van in DC: That's a pretty good description from what I remember, too, Cecile. Been a long time, but I'll try some here shortly again.... @Dean - nope I have not. Rarely get to Dupont area.
	11:20am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jeezus. I guess I haven't hung out Dupont-wise in a while. Haven't even heard of Obelisk. The turnover of business there & 14th/U area seems intense. Hard to keep up.
	11:21am northguineahills: Man, Muyei Power! That was a straight up guitar solo!
	11:21am Dean: @ViDC, It's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of place, at least no more than once a year, price-wise. But, man, is it good. Elegant, charming, but not stuffy.
	11:24am Van in DC: I was just looking over their website / menu / comments, and I see what you mean. Sounds interesting...
	👻 11:26am 12539: I almost thought this was the Space Lady.
	11:26am Van in DC: I have to run to a meeting, and then hey! I'll catch ya alligator, later! ha! Thanks Joe!
	11:26am Dean: I hope to head to DC in September to attend a conference, visit friends, and yes, maybe even dine at Obelisk. Saving my pennies.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Van: See you later, alligator! Enjoy the Bolivian food!
	11:30am d¢ pät: I've heard of Obelisk but don't make those sorts of restaurants too often..
	11:35am northguineahills: Cool, new old Roy Montgomery!
	11:36am DCE: one of my faves...a lovely trio
	11:37am V Priceless: Nice call, Joe!
	11:37am Cecile: nice!!!!!
	👻 11:37am 12539: This is the one where Bruford gets credit for not playing the drums.
	11:38am Joe McG: @12539: "admirable restraint"
	11:39am DCE: oh to be in the woods listening to this...
	11:40am V Priceless: gotta love those Mello flutes!
	11:40am Cecile: I think The The might have borrowed a bit from this...
	👻 11:41am 12539: I just want you all to know that I didn't play drums on this track either, even though I never get any credit.
	11:42am DCE: credit where credit is due, 12539. that might actually be a debit situation.
	11:43am V Priceless: cool Joe! Eno bro follow-up!
	11:43am Joe McG: @12539: I hate to tell you, but I didn't play drums on it before you did. I have to get my court case on the docket.
	👻 11:44am 12539: @Joe, I wasn't playing drums before not playing drums was cool, and you know it.
	11:45am Joe McG: @12539: I guess I have to admit defeat. But I'd like at least a small portion of the settlement.
	11:47am Cecile: People should pay me to not drum on their records. They will be the better for it.
	11:50am Cecile: ah, K. Leimer/Savant.
	11:51am Andrew Waterloo: He's a percussionist, they're probably paying him to not play drums , triangle, and marimba.
	11:51am KevinfromBayRidge: Joe, I could arrange that for not a small %.
	11:52am Dean: You know, Max Roach didn't drum on Starless, either. And you can hear it, too, because that album SWINGS!
	11:52am V Priceless: Thanks for a fab show, Joe!
	11:52am Cecile: hahahhaa Dean.
	11:53am Joe McG: @Dean: Ha ha!
	11:54am Parq: Going in and out on the same note, eh? Fine bookends for a fine show, as always.
	11:54am bobdoesthings: great show joe!
	11:54am Joe McG: @Parq: You caught me! Thanks, VP, and thanks to everyone for listening and commenting. Have a great rest of week and weekend!
	👻 11:55am 12539: Thanks, Joe. (And please don't bother to thank me for all the records I didn't play during your show.)
	11:55am northguineahills: Mighty fine outing, Joe. Thanks again!
	11:55am Cecile: don't thank me, just pay me.
	11:56am Kurt Gottschalk: lovely final set, skipper.
	11:56am DCE: I love Les Paul's quick licks on these old tracks...what a player!
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: Good work, Joe.
	11:57am Jack: Nice show, enjoyed the variety.
	11:57am KevinfromBayRidge: Twas a beautiful thing!
	11:58am nah: This was all very good, thanks much!
	11:58am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:58am SeanG: yes fun show indeed!
	11:58am DCE: it's like an old-time variety show, indeed...just need two pairs of singing twins...

	9:08am Guido from Cologne: Happy birthday, doca! Happy birthday, Dagmar Krause!

	9:21am Joe McG: @Parq: Thanks for helping out at the Record Fair! Thanks to everyone who came out and said hello!
	9:22am Guido from Cologne: Diggin' the selections Joe! The right stuff for me in the moment!
	👻 9:23am 12539: The day sure goes by quick when you start it by closing your eyes.
	9:25am Joe McG: @12539: Ha ha! As long as you don't open them again until it gets dark.
	9:25am common: 12539, joe indeed
	9:28am Parq: This is bringing back pleasant memories of riding with my Dad in his car in the 70s, listening to WNEW-AM. That's when I first came to like this kind of music.
	9:29am Joe McG: @Parq: I'm your ersatz Jonathan Schwartz for this morning. He's not on this early, so...
	9:30am Fernando M P: Feliz aniversário @doca!
	9:31am doca: Valeu, Fernando!
	9:31am d¢ pät: I feel like my dad...

	9:33am Laura L: An opening set to bring back memories real or imagined.... Thanks, Joe--it's perfection.
	9:34am doca: I feel like I'm listening to Monica, specially those last songs she used to play.
	9:35am DeaconDave: Nice start this morning Joe
	9:35am d¢ pät: Becuase this is music he might have liked.
	9:35am doca: @Joe: what's your background music now?

	9:47am Marcel M: Aw, shucks, you too! Digging this Gipsy Rhumba!
	9:47am Guido from Cologne: Doors?

	9:47am V Priceless: cool meeting u Sunday, Joe! Also meant to say thanks for all your help with the marathon swag, too! : )
	9:48am Cecile: hola! busy! But I'll try to poke my head in later in the show.
	9:48am d¢ pät: Wow, FMU dj actually played the Doors??? ROCK!
	9:48am Michele: JOE! The Doors???! Awesome!
	9:48am Cecile: Scott played a deep cut on Monday.
	9:49am DCE: always makes me think of that one summer...
	9:49am Sem Chumbo: Ahhn-day-lou-CHEEE-ahhh.
	9:50am Jim Price: Way to go Joe! The Lizard King lives!
	9:50am common: fuck yes
	9:50am Cecile: I wish he had been a real lizard, though.
	9:51am Cecile: or half man, half lizard.
	9:51am Joe McG: @Scott: That Doors cut goes out to Scott Williams and Jim Price!
	👻 9:51am Brian in UK: Hey Joe, thought Monica had taken this slot in the Summer schedules. I can dream, no offence. It rained in the night here and there was a wonderful fragrance in the air walking to work, bit autuminal. Joe, did you see me waving at the record fair. You would have needed eyes of an elf.
	9:52am Sem Chumbo: @Cecile: which end up?
	9:52am Joe McG: @Brian: I dedicate the first set to Monica, who we all miss. Yes, Brian, you were the guy with the pointed hat.
	9:52am Cecile: It's up to the mad scientist doing the unholy experiments.
	9:53am Cecile: what happend to Monica?
	9:53am V Priceless: gotta be the bottom half of Morrison, so he could have a tail, no?
	9:54am Sem Chumbo: EX-cellent. An Island of Dr. Moreau thing.
	9:54am Marcel M: Members of Talibam! USA is a Monster and Necking.... nice.
	9:55am d¢ pät: oh so Williams started the Doors trend, eh? I think you all should keep it going...
	9:55am DCE: Alien Whale, knocking it out of the universe
	9:55am Joe McG: @Cecile: Nothin'! She's just taking some time off.
	9:55am Cheri Pi: I approve this Alien Whale.
	👻 9:55am Brian in UK: It goes with my pointy head.
	9:56am d¢ pät: yeah, this is the goodest.
	9:56am V Priceless: note to closet proggers: King Crimson tix on sale tomorrow - this time out, featuring THREE drummers & Mel Collins!
	9:56am Cecile: oh, thank God. You get to be a certain age and you just never know.
	9:56am Joe McG: @dc pat: Who will be next to play a cut from "Waiting for the Sun"? Which, come to think of it, would be a better track for the likes of today...
	9:56am Cecile: VP - that sounds both exciting and horrifying at the same time.
	9:57am Cecile: which kind of sums up the career of King Crimson.
	9:57am Santos L Halper: Swallowed by the whale...and loving it!
	9:57am Marcel M: I can't decide if I want to go see King Crimson or not..
	9:57am Marcel M: But I'm certainly going to buy Sleep tickets tomorrow.
	9:58am d¢ pät: lot of choices from that album..
	9:58am V Priceless: @ Cecile - I know exactly what you mean!
	9:58am KK: i'm likin the alien whale too Cheri Pi. perfect rainy day noize
	👻 9:58am Brian in UK: @VP I was boasting on Bill Mac's show that I have 'In the Court of the Crimson King' Parts 1&2 45rpm. VG condition. Offers. Fripp looks like someones grandad.
	9:59am Cecile: they give you Starless and Bible Black. And then they give you Beat and The Power to Believe.
	9:59am V Priceless: Alien Whale got me thinkin' of ol' Fripper!
	9:59am Cecile: I once called him in a review "the stern and withholding father figure of progressive rock." hahahhaha
	10:01am Cecile: this is really Andy Kim, right? :D
	👻 10:02am Brian in UK: Grocer Jack.
	10:03am V Priceless: @ Cecile - "stern" seems as representative a word as any, in many respects. Or maybe...ahem...."disciplined"!
	10:03am common: @marcel: which members of talibam?
	10:05am d¢ pät: Yeah, King Crimson's great and all but there is now ONE WEEK UNTIL THE WORLD CUP! I better start hearing a LOT of futbol songs, dammit!
	10:05am sugarwolf: sylvie!!
	10:05am Cecile: disciplined, but also slightly disapproving of people not exhibiting the right amount of seriousness in his mind. And since he's the boss, this amount of seriousouss is subject to his whims...
	10:05am V Priceless: be interesting to see if Fripp will be packing a Mellotron on this tour, even though that's a bit an oxymoron statement.
	10:06am Cecile: hope he doesn't scratch it. ;)
	10:06am V Priceless: ooh!! Great KINKS tune!! Woo-hoo!!
	10:07am d¢ pät: KKKKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
	10:07am Lewis: @dc pat: do I recall correctly that (was if 4 years ago!) you were going to build a big white board bracket? if so - how did that work out?
	👻 10:07am Brian in UK: @d¢ pät Ever heard 'Fitball Crazy' by two Scotsmen, Robin Hall & Jimmy Macgregor?
	10:08am Cheri Pi: you could also be describing Michael Gira, who likes to start a show off with a good tisk-tisking of the audience.
	10:08am Cheri Pi: What pät shrieked.
	10:08am Cecile: Just play some Crazy Frog. Michael Gira is hilarious!
	10:09am Cecile: pat, you should go on Sportsy Talk.
	10:09am Cheri Pi: I can no longer ever take Gira seriously again. it has to be some kind of schtick, right?
	10:10am d¢ pät: @Lewis: you are quite correct. I'm sorry to report that I bailed on that concept and just bought a bracket poster. I got too many irons in too many fires and can't make EVERYTHING... @Brian: nope
	10:10am Cecile: Even Nick Cave got tired of being NICK CAVE
	10:10am Guido from Cologne: Good old Beta Band!
	10:10am d¢ pät: @'cile: I would never talk sports with sports fans. That gives me the creeps...
	10:11am Marcel M: @common: Matt Mottel
	10:11am Cecile: great stuff. held up well. But it's Bronwyn and Jay the Poet. They don't know shit about sports, and if they do, they think they are kind of stupid. They read haiku at NFL media day for chrissakes!
	10:12am Guido from Cologne: Nick Cave gettin tired ofbeing Nick Cave I can so easily imagine ..
	10:12am Lewis: @dc pat - i hear you! so many good ideas, so little time! Enjoy the proceedings!
	10:12am d¢ pät: oh, didn't know that. Sounds kind of good.
	10:13am Cecile: it's kind of awesome.
	10:13am Scott Williams: at Primavera a few years ago, Gira was shouting from the stage "WFMU - FUCK YOU!" He came over to the tent later to ask if we heard it - cute joke: turns out Swans were listening to Ween's "Reggaejunkiejew" all day.
	10:13am Guido from Cologne: You should see our "expert soccer trainers" in our pubs here. You couldn't help loughing out!
	10:14am Cecile: aw, that's kind of coo. BUt they are still kind of dopey.
	10:14am Scott Williams: PS - HI JOE! Thanks for the Doors dedication, and for not playing "Running Blue"
	10:14am common: @scott: that makes sense.
	10:14am d¢ pät: I went to a local Liverpool-supporting bar to watch one of the last matches of the season and that creeped me right-the-fuck out. It was like a cult.
	10:14am Marcel M: @Scott, Brian Turner told me that story, he told me he said something like, "Spain, overthrow your government, WFMU, FUCK YOU!" Classic...
	10:14am common: @cecile: you've made me think about that a lot.
	10:15am Joe McG: @Scott: "Running Blue"! THAT's the name of that horrible thing.
	10:16am Rev. Turnip Druid: hey youse guys. ...and youse other guys.
	10:16am Cecile: Dear world, please stop making good music. And destroy all the good music I don't know about from the past. I just...don't...have...time.
	10:16am V Priceless: wow - Matthew Fisher! Cool! Joe's on fire, despite all this rain!
	10:16am d¢ pät: ooo, you want to stay far far away from Soft Parade...
	10:16am Cecile: I guess I could move to Iran, but the TV is terrible there, I've heard.
	10:16am Marcel M: That he came over to the tent after to ask if you heard it makes Gira seem more cute and endearing.
	10:17am Cecile: I think he needs to do a stunt cover. Also an appearance on Bob's Burgers. Then I might rethink him,
	10:17am Whosondephone: RIOT - ON!
	10:18am Cecile: Morrison Hotel is pretty damn solid
	10:18am d¢ pät: ^^^ what Cecile said...another reason I didn't make the giant bracket poster...
	10:19am Cheri Pi: that's a cute story SW. I'll reconsider my stance with a sense of humor.
	10:19am Cecile: What did I say, common?
	10:20am common: talking about swans, cecile. just that whole thingy.
	10:20am Cecile: ah, cool.
	10:22am Scott Williams: @Marcel, good to meet you at the Record Fair! Thanks for all yours & Missus Marcel's help
	10:23am Rev. Turnip Druid: Scott W. Mantis!
	10:23am Marcel M: @Scott, no problem, it was fun! I want to volunteer more. Too bad I have that annoying thing called a job on the weekdays.
	10:24am Lewis: @Marcel M - aint that the truth - and mine is in Mpls...
	10:24am tinfoil_roof_rack: That Fisher track was excellent!
	10:25am Cecile: yeah, mine too, Lewis. Just a little inconvenient...
	10:26am Marcel M: @Lewis, yes that would be quite the commute!
	10:26am Lewis: @Cecile - yeah there are a few of us in the twin cities, but probably not enough to merit a record fair...
	10:27am Greg from Bloomfield: Holy smokes am I upset that I missed him now.
	10:27am Cecile: ah, you are right Lewis. Maybe a meet up some year?
	10:27am Slater: this DM is great
	10:28am Cecile: dan melchior for World Emperor.
	10:28am Marcel M: He's really giving it to the Brooklyn kids.
	10:28am Scott Williams: Hahaaa... @Cecile & @Lewis, we did have 2 Minneapolitan volunteers at the fair this weekend. Oh, and a new intern started yesterday. Is Minneapolis the latest breeding ground for NYC emigres?
	10:28am Guido from Cologne: Dan Melchior instantly stands out ... magical ...
	10:29am Santos L Halper: Rock out Dan!
	10:29am adam_nspy: Ripping
	10:29am Lewis: @Cecile - a meet up is probably more to the scale… it is on that list of so many good ideas!
	10:31am Lewis: @Scott - there is definitely a growing flow music wise. My step son is home after graduating from Sarah Lawrence and is vacillating between twin cities and nyc… he is a composer ...
	10:31am Guido from Cologne: ... ah ... enjoyed the terre t. - stream live ... but this is even better ..
	10:32am Cecile: Scott, as much as Detroit and Ann Arbor seem to be almost bedroom communities for NYC.
	10:32am Sem Chumbo: Saw the whole Melchior set from the Record Fair. Just great!
	10:33am KP: Hullo, Joe
	10:33am Cecile: Twin Cities has a seriously good trad and modern classical scene. Innova is out of here.
	10:34am common: yo, philly record exchange!
	10:34am KP: urgh, interviews
	10:35am DeaconDave: yo, Princeton Record Exchange
	10:35am Rev. Turnip Druid: Speaking of job interviews: The missus just gave notice at current (hellhole) employer. After a couple years of sneaky interviewing, finally... sweet relief...
	10:36am Cecile: yayay for missus rev
	10:36am bobdoesthings: morning all... man am I really late to work today sheeesh...
	10:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: There's also "I Wanna Be Lazy" by Kin Ping Meh, if there's a theme to be had here...
	10:37am Marcel M: Whats up Bob. Two days in a row?!
	10:37am Cheri Pi: Horn rock!
	10:38am Joe McG: @Rev: Good one!
	10:38am d¢ pät: Nice Rev.. mrs. dc pat is in a similar hellhole boat right now. Nice to know there is hope.
	10:40am bobdoesthings: @marcel.. well yesterday was only like 20 mins late... this morning I forgot to set alarms and am over an hour late and now im chatting it ip on the comments boards.. Im the worst
	10:40am bobdoesthings's boss: Uh bob, can you step into my office for a minute?...
	10:40am Rev. Turnip Druid: DCP: there is indeed hope, but in her case it took a crazy long time. The scenario is tough: us professional-grade persons "of a certain age" competing with recent grads who will work for peanuts & have no combat experience...
	10:41am bobdoesthings: oh no! boss.
	10:43am d¢ pät: nail on the head @rev. You gotta balance how much bullshit you can take in the comfort of the current job with the never ending fraying of interviewing for another possible hellhole...
	10:43am Marcel M: Oh boy, be a good boy Bob!
	10:43am Lewis: @Rev. gets a bit nail-bitey doesn't it!
	10:43am Marcel M: The WFMU comments board reminds me of this: xkcd.com...
	10:44am Greg from Bloomfield: I wonder what this place's policy is re: freelancers jumping up and dancing on their desks...
	10:44am Cecile: hahhahahha, marcel. I love that cartoon. Rev, and Lewis, looking forward to that scenario once I finish my graphic design certificate.
	10:44am common: dcp: absotutely
	10:45am Rev. Turnip Druid: No slamdancing, no desk-diving.
	10:46am bobdoesthings: @Marcel... awww
	10:46am Marcel M: @Cecile: Me too, I have a programmer friend who loves it and I only really know it through the ones he sends me. He has witnessed me on here before and sent that to me.
	10:46am Cecile: Sylvia Robinson - it's good to be the Queen.
	10:46am Marcel M: @Bob I'm getting all Maudlin with this music.
	10:47am Marcel M: I have a confession to make. I say no to clients so I can hear certain favorite shows live. Haha
	10:48am bobdoesthings: @marcel. if you told that to andy breckman he'd make fun of you for sure.
	10:49am Lewis: @Cecile - keep me posted, we have a group that uses freelancers and I could make introductions...
	10:49am KK: @marcel wow that xkcd goes right to the feels. also re: turning down clients...you've got your priorities in check!
	👻 10:49am Brian in UK: @Marcel you are on the twelve step AWAY programme.
	10:49am Marcel M: @BOB, but he would also be surprised I had a job. And maybe impressed, since he doesn't believe that WFMU listeners are employed. I feel like he would go, "Awww... thats the sweetest thing I've ever heard." In his mocking voice.
	10:50am Marcel M: @KK Yep, I need my WFMU time!
	10:50am doca: @Joe: thanks for the wonderful show so far! I'll catch the rest later from the archives
	10:50am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Cecile: early congrats on that certificate! @Lewis 10:43 -- nail-bitey? Hell yes. After getting restructured out of a longtime gig, it took 17 months of hunting & freelancing before finding another FT position. It's nuts.
	10:50am Van in DC: Ah so this is the Kitty Wells that Laura so dearly loves
	10:50am Joe McG: @doca: Have a great, great b'day!
	10:51am Marcel M: @Brian Hah, and I think I'll stay right there.
	10:52am KK: I missed terre t's last show because of a -- get this -- a friend's wedding! can you believe it!
	10:52am common: kitty wells just sang my theme.
	10:52am Lewis: @van - Indeed!
	10:53am doca: Thanks, @Joe! @Cecile: You were not here when I metaphorically payed everyone a round of limoncello for my birthday
	10:53am Cecile: That is so cool, Lewis. I gotta get some more work under my belt, but I might take you up on it.
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Are these last two both 1973? You could carbon date River City easily not Kitty.
	10:53am Cecile: nice, doca!
	10:53am ChrisB.: This tune defies belief. and is that a mellotron?
	10:54am V Priceless: @ ChrisB - sure sounds like one!
	10:55am Joe McG: @Chris: Yes, it sure IS!
	10:55am Lewis: @Cecile - no prob, standing by
	👻 10:55am Brian in UK: Mellotrons come in lightweight packages these days.
	10:56am northguineahills: In the last 2.5 years, after leaving a four year gig, the most permanent gigs I've had were two 6 month gigs. Still endlessly phone interviewing. The positive ones have about 6 weeks before the second interview, etc. So much fun!
	👻 10:58am Brian in UK: Could someone rename Human Resources, Ignorant Motherfu
	10:58am V Priceless: @ Brian - not the REAL ones! Still being manufactured by hand in your neck of the woods by Streetly!
	10:59am Cecile: Brian, I resemble that remark.... hahah
	👻 11:00am Brian in UK: @VP I had these in mind. www.mellotron.com...
	11:01am V Priceless: @Brian - I've seen those! Here's the link to the real deal - pretty fascinating stuff: www.mellotronics.com
	11:02am Tome: Hello and good Morning .. gonna be a fab June indeedy.
	11:02am KK: signin off for today, later!
	11:03am bobdoesthings: eeeek.. with that laugh, I'd avoid this girl. dealbreaker.
	👻 11:03am Brian in UK: @VP I like the idea of a REAL mellotron. Spotted in the wilds of Borneo.
	11:03am Joe McG: Hello Tome, goodbye KK!
	11:04am V Priceless: @bobdoes...agreed! Sheesh!
	👻 11:04am 12539: She sounds like she has a pull string in her back.
	11:04am Van in DC: So the Smithsonian American Indian museum (where the Mitsitam cafe is) is having a Bolivian fest today. Looks my lunch today will consist of: Mondogo-Chili Braised Pork, Alligator Chicharron, and Bolivian Peanut Soup, and a Bolivian Milk Chocolate Quinoa Banana Bar for dessert. Yum.
	11:05am Cecile: Yum is right.
	11:05am Tome: nice run of 7" numbers as always Joe wtg !! glad to catch it as it's happening too this morning .
	11:06am Mike East: @Van - I am incredibly jealous. Good morning, all.
	11:07am Glenn m: Good morning!
	11:07am Van in DC: I take full advantage of working right next to the National Mall in DC...
	11:07am d¢ pät: Am. Indian museum cafe rules. even if you don't eat alligator...
	11:08am Greg from Bloomfield: My old high school band (The Manny Trillo) covered a Lois song! I think it was called "The Trouble With Me."
	11:08am Cheri Pi: mmmmm...Indian
	11:10am Van in DC: I caught Laura's set on ustream, she was GREAT
	11:12am Tome: ..unless it's a brooklyn italian/irish wedding of course ...
	11:12am common: does alligator taste like alligator, dcp?
	11:13am thedunkel: @JoeMcGasko they were great picks for liz !
	11:14am Joe McG: Thanks, thedunkel! It was really fun!
	11:15am Marcel M: Joe, what did you say about The Obelisk guy? I missed it.
	11:15am bobdoesthings: @marcel.. he'll be on diane's show next
	11:16am Joe McG: @Marcel: He does this heavy web site and he's going to be spinning with Diane between 12 and 3.
	11:16am Marcel M: Ahhh I see.
	11:16am Marcel M: Cool thanks BOB and Joe.
	11:17am T_Jay Pauli: keep pumpin the drums of self promotion .. i mean search, and love ...
	11:17am Cecile: alligator IME tastes like tough fishy chicken. I might need to try it again.
	11:17am Marcel M: Off to work. Bye everyone.
	11:18am Dean: "The Obelisk guy?" That's a coincidence, because I wanted to ask Van in DC if he'd had a chance to mosey over toward Dupont Circle to dine at a restaurant called Obelisk.
	11:18am northguineahills: I've only had gator tail, and love it. Of course, just deep fried since it was FL.
	11:18am bobdoesthings: adios marcel
	11:19am Van in DC: That's a pretty good description from what I remember, too, Cecile. Been a long time, but I'll try some here shortly again.... @Dean - nope I have not. Rarely get to Dupont area.
	11:20am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jeezus. I guess I haven't hung out Dupont-wise in a while. Haven't even heard of Obelisk. The turnover of business there & 14th/U area seems intense. Hard to keep up.
	11:21am northguineahills: Man, Muyei Power! That was a straight up guitar solo!
	11:21am Dean: @ViDC, It's a once-in-a-lifetime kind of place, at least no more than once a year, price-wise. But, man, is it good. Elegant, charming, but not stuffy.
	11:24am Van in DC: I was just looking over their website / menu / comments, and I see what you mean. Sounds interesting...
	👻 11:26am 12539: I almost thought this was the Space Lady.
	11:26am Van in DC: I have to run to a meeting, and then hey! I'll catch ya alligator, later! ha! Thanks Joe!
	11:26am Dean: I hope to head to DC in September to attend a conference, visit friends, and yes, maybe even dine at Obelisk. Saving my pennies.
	11:28am Joe McG: @Van: See you later, alligator! Enjoy the Bolivian food!
	11:30am d¢ pät: I've heard of Obelisk but don't make those sorts of restaurants too often..
	11:35am northguineahills: Cool, new old Roy Montgomery!
	11:36am DCE: one of my faves...a lovely trio
	11:37am V Priceless: Nice call, Joe!
	11:37am Cecile: nice!!!!!
	👻 11:37am 12539: This is the one where Bruford gets credit for not playing the drums.
	11:38am Joe McG: @12539: "admirable restraint"
	11:39am DCE: oh to be in the woods listening to this...
	11:40am V Priceless: gotta love those Mello flutes!
	11:40am Cecile: I think The The might have borrowed a bit from this...
	👻 11:41am 12539: I just want you all to know that I didn't play drums on this track either, even though I never get any credit.
	11:42am DCE: credit where credit is due, 12539. that might actually be a debit situation.
	11:43am V Priceless: cool Joe! Eno bro follow-up!
	11:43am Joe McG: @12539: I hate to tell you, but I didn't play drums on it before you did. I have to get my court case on the docket.
	👻 11:44am 12539: @Joe, I wasn't playing drums before not playing drums was cool, and you know it.
	11:45am Joe McG: @12539: I guess I have to admit defeat. But I'd like at least a small portion of the settlement.
	11:47am Cecile: People should pay me to not drum on their records. They will be the better for it.
	11:50am Cecile: ah, K. Leimer/Savant.
	11:51am Andrew Waterloo: He's a percussionist, they're probably paying him to not play drums , triangle, and marimba.
	11:51am KevinfromBayRidge: Joe, I could arrange that for not a small %.
	11:52am Dean: You know, Max Roach didn't drum on Starless, either. And you can hear it, too, because that album SWINGS!
	11:52am V Priceless: Thanks for a fab show, Joe!
	11:52am Cecile: hahahhaa Dean.
	11:53am Joe McG: @Dean: Ha ha!
	11:54am Parq: Going in and out on the same note, eh? Fine bookends for a fine show, as always.
	11:54am bobdoesthings: great show joe!
	11:54am Joe McG: @Parq: You caught me! Thanks, VP, and thanks to everyone for listening and commenting. Have a great rest of week and weekend!
	👻 11:55am 12539: Thanks, Joe. (And please don't bother to thank me for all the records I didn't play during your show.)
	11:55am northguineahills: Mighty fine outing, Joe. Thanks again!
	11:55am Cecile: don't thank me, just pay me.
	11:56am Kurt Gottschalk: lovely final set, skipper.
	11:56am DCE: I love Les Paul's quick licks on these old tracks...what a player!
	👻 11:56am Brian in UK: Good work, Joe.
	11:57am Jack: Nice show, enjoyed the variety.
	11:57am KevinfromBayRidge: Twas a beautiful thing!
	11:58am nah: This was all very good, thanks much!
	11:58am Greg from Bloomfield: Thanks, Joe!
	11:58am SeanG: yes fun show indeed!
	11:58am DCE: it's like an old-time variety show, indeed...just need two pairs of singing twins...
