Listener comments!
	9:04pm Stevel: Tree-fucking-mendous. Why have I never heard of Rockicks?
	9:05pm Stevel: Tree, 'cause its Earth day. Dig? Gotta million of em.
	9:05pm -andrew-: Evening EFD and fellow rockers!
	9:05pm -andrew-: Ha Stevel!
	9:05pm PKNY: This Rockicks track is super righteous, and I appreciate that they gave the drummer some in the middle of the rockin' and rollin'.
	9:06pm V Priceless: Hey Evan! Rocketh!
	9:09pm Stevel: Now interested in The Reds.
	9:11pm ?: In 30+ years, I have NEVER heard this on the radio, except on the show I used to do on KTRU-FM in Houston in the '80s. THANK YOU. EVAN!
	9:11pm Loretta: hi everyone! I really enjoyed the Rockicks, I don't think I remember them...
	9:16pm efd: hi everyone, glad you all dug that Rockicks tune! And you're welcome, mystery Reds fan who lived in Houston at one time!
	9:25pm Lonely Planet Boy: Love this Wanderers track.
	9:25pm j_no-NYC: No longer mystery fan. I'm a pledger to your show, but apparently new creds & registration were required. I love that Reds album. I lost track of them through the years though.
	9:26pm efd: It's been a fave of mine since the first time I heard it.
	9:26pm j_no-NYC: RED VINYL, too!
	9:27pm efd: nice, glad you enjoyed it and thanks for re-registering!
	9:29pm efd: Weirdly my copy of the Reds s/t album ins on GREEN vinyl. The 10" I just played is regular black, but based on the cover I think there must have been a green pressing of that also.
	9:32pm j_no-NYC: Yes, a former bandmate of mine, who also worked in a record store, had the green vinyl version. Kind of translucent green, if I recall.
	9:36pm herb.nyc: yay, Earth Day- i hang with ...
	9:36pm herb.nyc: ...lesecologycenter.org, i wuv them.
	9:40pm john: I had that Wanderers elpee a million years ago. One of the records I'm still most peevish about having been lifted by someone somewhere along the way.
	9:48pm efd: I don't even remember the other songs on the album off the top of my head because "Ready To Snap" is so great.
