	9:17am annie: :D
	♥ 9:19am fred: @RTD: Did you see the kickstarter for the film about a Magma tour in China? In case you launch a side project, one of the perks is having Vander give you a Kobaïan name.
	9:20am Claw!: I just joined the twitmaker last week myself! Getting the hang of it, slowly but surely...
	9:21am sphere: hi all. this Dean McPhee is gorgeous!

	9:27am Claw!: It's not a competition, Joe! It's an avenue for witty banter. We shall bant together. BANT BANT BANT Digging this chill vibe, btw. I hope you have some disco for me later... ;-)
	9:28am bpdun88: Forgive the interruption, but I'm digging this Ozum Itez
	9:29am Brendan: Sweet sounds Mr Joe. I'm totally getting with the program!
	♥ 9:30am fred: @Joe: I don't have one, it's too expensive. Actually I don't even like Magma that much, but I know the director of that film
	♥ 9:30am Joe McG: @Claw!: I had put aside a Stephanie Mills and an AKB 12" for that purpose, but I, uh....forgot 'em! :( :(

	9:33am Claw!: sigh Oh, Joe. Joey, Joey, Joe. <<shakes fist>> Oh, who am I kidding? I can't get mad at you.
	9:34am Rev. Turnip Druid: @fred 9:19 -- HA, that's amazing. And hilarious. IT MUST a naming ceremony high atop a rocky mountain against a blood-red sky, with Kobaian choirs and swords and cannons and eagles of terrible grace....
	♥ 9:36am fred: @RTD: I'm afraid that's not included, but instead you can also get a cooking lesson with Christian Vander: www.kickstarter.com...
	9:37am TellsTogo: Add crank calling and I'm in.
	9:37am Roberto: I look forward to the farts.
	9:39am Claw!: @Roberto - Don't we all?? ◔‿◔
	♥ 9:40am Ken From Hyde Park: Those zoo-type shows always have some buffoon with insipid laughter that thinks every syllable out of the host is just so funny. Yarf!
	9:40am Michael Shelley: If you do the Zoo - you also need a female that says things like "oh, that's horrible" & "you guys are so outrageous!"
	♥ 9:40am Polyus: Morning Rampage with Booger and The Moose. The part of The Moose to be played by Andy Breckman.
	♥ 9:42am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, Joe & all! <toilet flush>
	9:42am Claw!: Ooh! Turkish funk! Play it, Joe! Play it!
	♥ 9:43am Joe McG: @Michael: Totally right!
	9:48am Claw!: <<bobs rhythmically in chair>>
	♥ 9:49am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. No carrot cake, just had a coconut, pineapple & lime lolly.
	♥ 9:52am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...finished off 'Mexican' Mac & Chee from local co-op : it had cumin. Yummy! Kewl set happening...
	9:52am Claw!: I like this already
	♥ 9:53am Brian in UK: Talking Turkish. It is a year since Selim Sesler passed away.
	♥ 9:54am Joe McG: @Brian: Time do fly in the most unappealing way.
	9:55am V Priceless: Let there be clavinet!
	9:56am mauri: rhubarberi
	♥ 9:58am Joe McG: @mauri: It's like that Dana Carvey song: Chopin Rhuberi!
	♥ 9:58am Brian in UK: mauri my wife just made a lovely rhubarb & vanilla jam .
	♥ 9:59am coelacanth: olá Joe and Noisettes
	♥ 9:59am Brian in UK: mauri, how are you doing?
	♥ 10:00am Brian in UK: At the end of July there will be a Leap second to adjust time.
	10:00am fleep: Greetings, Joe and aerobes.
	10:01am Claw!: omg, Joe, I started up a sing-a-long of "Choppin Broccoli" at work the other day! Love it!
	10:01am Claw!: FISH!
	♥ 10:02am Brian in UK: Sorry end of June we will add one second to the atomic clocks.
	10:02am mauri: the romance of this song is just too much. italians in afros on a boat shining and somehow rhubarbs are there. Brian I'm doing good. exhausted from work and running. I'm trying to get a ride to a statuepark where I have a soundman gig. How are you Brain?
	♥ 10:04am Brian in UK: I am busy, lots of vegetable weeding to do. There is very little rain here so the ground needs much watering. Not enough time to ride my motorcycle.
	10:05am bobdoesthings: silverappless!!
	♥ 10:05am coelacanth: hey there Bear!!
	10:06am Mayuko: Ah! Isn't Silver Apples playing in NYC soon? Or is it already over??
	♥ 10:07am coelacanth: my life will be one second out of time with most of the world, starting in july.
	♥ 10:07am Joe McG: @Mayuko: Really? I thought Simeon was retired now!
	♥ 10:08am coelacanth: ...and his partner died,no?
	10:08am Mayuko: I was surprised too, Joe.
	10:09am Brendan: @Brian 'We interrupt your regularly scheduled life to add 1 second'
	10:09am mauri: MC Hell's Vegetables. I planted some kale. Looks like we get a fair amount of millberries this summer too. jee!
	♥ 10:10am SeanG: this damaged bug stuff is killer
	10:10am Brendan: Or 'Hey, got a second?' ...'Sure here ya go'
	♥ 10:11am coelacanth: the verse sounds like "lady godiva's operation".
	♥ 10:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in four years, do they add a 2nd second?...
	10:14am fleep: Planet is slowing down due to wind resistance from billboards and Arby's signs.
	♥ 10:15am Brian in UK: I think the last add-on was in 2012. I'm off, I have no time for this.
	♥ 10:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& - Donald Trump.
	♥ 10:15am coelacanth: ...but that's balanced out by the absence of trees.
	10:15am Malcolm: hello all. what does wfmu stand for?
	♥ 10:16am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...so - it's the 2nd 2nd second.
	10:16am katy: dog cow
	♥ 10:16am Joe McG: @Malcolm: Freedom!
	♥ 10:16am coelacanth: free-form radio!
	♥ 10:16am melinda: Plantasia!
	♥ 10:16am Brian in UK: 'Now the moment of great decision, The doctor makes his first incision'
	10:17am Brendan: If i recall its because the Earth is slowing in its rotation .. And all that 'mean solar day' length stuff. Its fine with me .. this crazy world needs to slow down anyway .. anyway... Who wants some lemonade... Hey you kids get off my lawn
	♥ 10:17am Brian in UK: It was the most recent one.
	♥ 10:20am Greg from Bloomfield: Reminds me of the "True Romance" soundtrack.
	10:21am Brendan: Sounds like Enya's gonna start singing
	♥ 10:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Once the moon spirals away, we won't have to add leap seconds anymore. I'm going to miss that moon someday.
	10:22am TellsTogo: @Brendan You're right, but that also means that the Moon will keep moving further and further away. So wanting more time is wanting less romance...
	10:23am timurf: death by chocolate!
	10:23am Claw!: So, Fish - you likely won't catch me on the boards later unless I get drunk and pop in. We are sending off a dear friend and colleague from the shop tonight by making a group excursion to Prince George's County's finest all-nude establishment. I have a nice stack of $2 bills handy. Shit's about to get stupid! ┌( ◉‿◉)┘
	10:24am Rev. Turnip Druid: Good lord -- a nudie establishment in PG... I'd be a-skeer'd.
	10:25am Claw!: Rev, it's aaalll good. It ain't our first rodeo at this spot. ;)
	♥ 10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The tilt of our orbital axis that creates the fixed Seasons is kept steady by our ☽Moon. This isn't true for ♂Mars...
	♥ 10:27am Brian in UK: Here's Adolf Hitler on vibes.
	10:28am Rev. Turnip Druid: Claw!: My time in th'county was mid-late 1970s, so I still picture it being all skinny white junkies with feathered hair & Lynrd Skynrd (sp?) t-shirts with marlboro packs rolled into a sleeve. Although now there's a certain "charm" in that... maybe...
	♥ 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: @Claw! - Sounds like a good chance to gain some followers if you send Twit-pics tonight.
	10:28am blee: Letter B! I love that skit.
	10:29am Claw!: @Cken - Hah! I'm about to post a pic of my stack of $2s. ;)
	10:29am βrian: I'm still in beta, myself.
	♥ 10:29am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes - the Fabs took it down...
	♥ 10:29am Michele: Hey everyone!!! Hi Joe! Got here late and missed the Silver Apples song which I love!
	10:30am V Priceless: is this Innes?
	♥ 10:30am MD: I want to hear this song in the style of the Ramones or DK's!!!
	10:30am bobdoesthings: funny, my mother is a B word
	10:30am a listener: I'm willing to bet Macca got his grubby mits on the royalties for this.
	10:30am Claw!: Holy shit! I used to have an old Sesame Street VHS with this song on it! it also had "Around the Clock" and a couple others. Haven't heard this in YEARS. Thanks, Joe!
	♥ 10:30am MD: Now I wanna say letter B!!!
	10:31am fleep: $2 bills ... because $1's look cheap and $5's blow the budget too quickly...
	♥ 10:31am MD: Now I want all the letters to BE!!!
	10:31am jointhee: did he just accuse Liverpudlians of stealing ? terrible.
	♥ 10:32am MD: All the kids say letter B!!!
	♥ 10:32am coelacanth: Bear! sometimes we just have to buckle down and bear!(bare!) our responsibilities. if you have to go to a nudey bar there's no way around it!
	♥ 10:32am MD: All the kids they wanna BE!!!
	10:32am Claw!: @Rev - Ah, I understand. Well, I can't say I've seen much of that the last few times I've been. Progress?
	♥ 10:34am coelacanth: doesn't sound crazy!
	10:34am V Priceless: is that Stan Lee the guitarist or the Marvel guy?
	10:37am PKNY: Good TZAG, Joe and everybody! This Denise LaSalle had to come out after "Respect Yourself", right? Lots of similarities in groove and lyrics...
	10:37am Claw!: Hah, Fish. Yes... they are absolutely dragging me there. Kicking and screaming. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
	10:38am Claw!: Killer cut, Joe!
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: @PKNY: Hmm, you may be right! I wish I had that single, Stax used to print the month and year on 'em!
	10:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: [most of the above insensitive stereotyping is based on observations @ Laurel's main-street festival, circa 1978]
	10:43am Claw!: Jeez, Rev. Way to make broad, sweeping generalizations...
	10:44am jointhee: RACEY YES
	10:44am Chapel Hillian: Is this Lettermen-lite?
	10:45am jointhee: quality of the programming has escalated since the introduction of the 7" bin.
	♥ 10:47am Joe McG: @Chapel: Yes, except they're singing about BAD things! @jointhee: Maybe when I croak I can donate my 45 collection to WFMU.
	♥ 10:47am coelacanth: Rev., parts of nj were the same scene back in the day.
	♥ 10:48am Joe McG: Hi, Michele! (Very late....)
	10:49am a listener: Poly! So sad...
	10:49am Rev. Turnip Druid: heh, coelacanth: Naturally, i was one of them (minus the cigarettes)
	10:49am Kurt Gottschalk: hey, i have this poly s 7"!
	10:50am Claw!: Rev, is your hair still feathered? Because if it is, I like you even more.
	♥ 10:50am Joe McG: Hi, Kurt!!
	10:51am jointhee: gold after gold after gold right now
	10:51am V Priceless: yo KG
	10:52am Claw!: What a great song
	10:53am Kurt Gottschalk: heya veep
	10:53am sphere: I think late-era Ernest Tubb is underrated.
	♥ 10:53am coelacanth: Rev,i straddled several lines as a teen. i was accepted by that crew because of my long hair, but i quietly loathed 'skynard and the outlaws,etc.!
	10:54am PKNY: Woah, some epic strings on this version of "Down by the River"!
	10:54am a listener: these 7"'s are always brilliant. Always.
	10:54am P-90: Hi DJ Joe McG and everyone. Fine show this morning. @Claw!: Looking forward to your twits!
	10:55am Will: Mellotron alert!
	10:55am fleep: A half-hour of bummers in a row...
	♥ 10:55am coelacanth: then when punk rock hit the sides were chosen!
	♥ 10:55am Michele: Single File so good today Joe!
	10:55am bobdoesthings: oh hey.. comments board.. My amp died on me last night.. after over a decade of service. Anyone got any recommendations on a good small (1x12") tube combo?
	10:56am Chapel Hillian: OMG, the first band I ever saw in concert, opener for John B. Sebastian circa 1973. They never amounted to much
	10:56am Rev. Turnip Druid: Claw: if i stopped hacking it off all the time, it would naturally be the total '70s middle-part swinger look, but with more self-loathing.
	11:00am P-90: @bobdoes: there are a plethora of options. How loud? A small gigging amp, or mainly for practica and recording? Fender-, Vox-, or Marshall- style? Or other? What was the original amp, were you happy with sound/performance? Are you sure you don't want to just fix that one?
	11:00am Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY CRAP, speaking of that time period, this FOUR SEASONS "disco version" was one of the first records I bought with my own money. Good grief.
	11:00am Brendan: Laurel had an xrated drive in movie theater off rte 1 well into the 1980s it was semi visible to ( ahem) non paying customers under a certain age who were willing to drive an old car full of likeminded 'interested' cinema goers of the teenage persuasion into a precarious situation requiring a four wheel drive mentality and a can do attitude
	♥ 11:00am Greg from Bloomfield: Had no idea this was the Four Seasons—it makes me hate them slightly less!
	11:01am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...because of this instrumental bit...
	11:01am V Priceless: this just in: Trump calls Young a "total hypocrite" @bobdoes - explore the Vox line...
	♥ 11:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Merry Half Christmas!
	11:02am a listener: I'm starting to think this board consists of extras from Dazed and Confused today...
	♥ 11:03am coelacanth: trump=free entertainment.
	11:03am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Brendan: yep, that drive-in was one of the Sidney Lust's franchise (the name made it infinitely better) ... quite the local landmark for a bit there.
	11:03am V Priceless: @ Ken FHP: Happy HOT SUMMER! : )
	♥ 11:03am Tome: the italian / irish wedding version ...
	11:04am bobdoesthings: @p-90.. oh yeah.. just realized how loaded this question is.. I got a lot to consider.. and nahh.. sorta wanted it to die.. It use to make a loud hum and if I punched the top like the fonz it would stop and work fine.. well I fonz'd it for the last time last night.. a LOUD low hum, a bright flash of light/sparks in the ventilation area and all the lights dimmed and died.. and I jsut stared blankly and sadly..
	11:04am Claw!: This version kicks ass
	11:04am Brendan: Telly Savalas ever cover this song?
	11:05am bobdoesthings: but now I get to research amps and go amp shopping!!
	11:05am PKNY: This a really long take of "Who Loves You" for a 45...what's the running time? Was this before they started releasing disco records on 12 inch, hence the 45 version?
	11:05am βrian: Update: Health care survives GOP court challenge."
	♥ 11:05am coelacanth: Brendan that would be incredible!
	11:06am V Priceless: what Fish said!
	11:07am Velvet Frog: @bobdoesthings Gear questions are always loaded and opinions so often make it worse. So here's my opinions. It somehow seems pedestrian, but I swear by my Blues Jr. Nice clean sound with a pretty broad sonic range. I'm mostly a rhythm player.I've got a friend who made miraculous sounds out of a Vox ACT4TV. it's a 1x10 He's a more aggressive player than me and it worked perfectly for him. More mid-range than the fender.
	♥ 11:09am Ken From Hyde Park: Years ago, I caught a band in Miami Beach that also used a violin on that.
	11:09am Claw!: Ew, fuck Randy Newman.
	11:10am P-90: @bobdoes: what make/model was it? there are some great bang-for-buck budget 12' amps these days, if you really want to do it right there is also a brisk trade in used "boutique" amps built by hand in small shops.
	11:10am bobdoesthings: @velvet -ahh thanks. i think I was looking at that vox last night.. gotta narrow down to a few and go out and play a bunch of them to really figure it out
	11:10am Brendan: @bob. Look for one that has an 11 volume setting.
	11:10am V Priceless: Yay Hugh!!
	11:10am a listener: Poly's last release was in 2011. The year she died. Got quite a bit of play on BBC6Music, I seem to remember.
	11:11am bobdoesthings: @p-90 - the amp I had was alright.. but I want more.. It was a marshall valvestate 2000 avt50.. I think one of those "half tube/half solid" amps..?
	11:11am Claw!: @Brendan - That is very sound advice.
	11:13am Claw!: Joe, did you just say DISCO????
	11:14am BriJet: Good morning Joe McG! :)
	♥ 11:14am Polyus: Oh yeah, local boy Sonny Knight!
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: @Claw!: somebody said that, wasn't me! @BriJet: Good morning to YOU!
	11:14am Claw!: This will work! Uptempo, all the way.
	11:14am PKNY: Props to Sonny Knight to giving the drummer a whole lot on this!
	11:16am Brendan: Not entirely fond of the valvestate amp sounds flat/ boxy even with reverb up... Not a natural sounding reverb .
	♥ 11:16am listener monica: jeez that down by the river was so much better than neil's.
	11:17am P-90: @bob: Oh, you can do much better than that!!! Like you say, just as well, it's a chance to trade up to something much better. I suggest you start by looking at the wide field of 15-30 watt "Vox-style" amps that are available, there are even a number of the that switch from 15 or even 8-10 watts up to 30. Great for getting big all-tube tone at low volumes. Do look around for what's for sale "used", too.
	11:18am Brendan: Joe - git down with your bad self
	11:18am P-90: @bob: there's also a zillion small "Fender-style" amps.
	♥ 11:20am coelacanth: hey,P-90,any suggestions on brands for those "vox style" amps?
	11:21am bobdoesthings: @p-90 , yeah for sure.. I got some exploration to do for sure! Thanks for all the help.
	11:22am Eric: OMG these last 2 tracks, some of the funkiest music I've ever heard!
	11:23am Cecile: this is a nice rip of "Piece of my Heart"
	♥ 11:24am Joe McG: @Eric: This new Richard Marks anthology is my RECORD OF THE WEEK! Great stuff.
	11:25am V Priceless: @ Fish - yeah, Vox!
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Vox for the aggressive guitarist? Interesting. I've recently become acquainted w/ the Marshall valvestate - & understand these estimations you give...
	♥ 11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...despite life-long dreams of Marshall-dom...yerknow...
	11:27am V Priceless: hear lotsa good stuff about Orange, too, but no first-hand experience.
	11:28am Brendan: @bob - its also good to verify that your dealing with good salespeople who wont fly off the handle. A good test is walk into the establishment early - when then unlock the door--go directly to the largest nastiest looking amp and turn it to 10 and really explore the sound space.
	♥ 11:28am coelacanth: yeah V that's what a google search is trying to tell me!...but keep in mind that i'm really a soundscape person and probably shouldn't spend too much money on something a skilled guitarist would make good use of!
	♥ 11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ooh - Orange - beloved of Stoner Metallers. Different sizes? Wish Marcel M in on this amp chat maybe?
	11:30am Cecile: I appreciate the idea of this cover, but I don't feel it.
	♥ 11:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like Steve Martin - which appeals to me...
	11:32am Lewis: Yeah Steve Martin backed by Devo...
	11:32am A Better Me: Yes. I came to the playlist the see if it was Steve Martin
	11:32am V Priceless: @ Fish - tiny Vox tube amp - great if you don't need big power, plus it looks cool: www.voxamps.com...
	♥ 11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Looks class - but 4 Watts won't get far w/ a drummer...
	♥ 11:35am common: joe great people good thursday
	♥ 11:35am Mike East: Orange are sweet...way too expensive though. Fender Hotrod Deluxe 1x12 is a nice little amp.
	11:35am Cecile: YES. Where's DCP?
	♥ 11:35am SeanG: DEVO
	11:35am Claw!: YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSS
	♥ 11:35am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, common!
	11:35am V Priceless: nope, Rev - strictly practice, home studio app hey common!
	♥ 11:37am common: greg, vp
	11:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: Large yay.
	11:37am Cecile: that would be a great facebook status: "sending out an aroma of undefined love"
	♥ 11:37am Greg from Bloomfield: DEVO. Flawless victory.
	11:37am frenchee: looks like I tuned in a just the right moment....the DEVO moment.
	11:38am V Priceless: ha
	♥ 11:39am coelacanth: V -ha! i was just looking at the ac4. it may be perfect for me. (since the only drummer i'm playing with cannot play drums simultaneously!) ...i just want a different sound to compliment the small "Mars all" bass amp.
	11:39am bobdoesthings: @brendan - it's also helpful to play the most loud, dissonant, and angressive riffs I know too right?
	11:39am Cecile: I think Arthur Russell faked his own death, because there is a new CD almost every month by him.
	11:40am Cecile: I say this with all due respect. He's more prolific than most living artists.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: @Cecile: Eventually they'll run out of archives, but it's nice that they keep finding worthwhile material.
	♥ 11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everybody's got a Fender amp. Because reasonable & not bad. Interesting these amps that switch Wattage depending on whether practice or noise competition mode...
	11:41am Cecile: it's very true, Joe!
	11:42am P-90: @amp shoppers: there's a lot of articles/webpages like these, you can read a bunch of them toget a sense of what's out there. BUT you gotta play through the amp yourself of course, before you buy. Again, it really pays to see what's used in your area. http://middle8reviews.com/top-12-low-watt-tube-amps-500/ http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/Champions_of_Chime_The_EL84_Roundup http://www.guitarplayer.com/amplifiers/1017/roundup-nine-1x12-combo-amps/23818
	11:43am bobdoesthings: @p-90 - nice, thanks!
	♥ 11:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Thx P-90.
	11:45am Brendan: @bob depends on the sales associate . You can ask if the like decaf or regular, that should give you a feel for the soundscape you are going for.
	11:46am Brendan: Because they wont be needing the coffee
	♥ 11:48am common: i want an orange hey this sounds like the columbo episode i saw last eve great!
	♥ 11:49am coelacanth: it's time to get out. those weeds wont wack themselves! Thanks Joe! Thanks for amp discussion! have fun tonight Bear!! later on animals.
	11:50am bpdun88: Morphine!!!!!
	11:50am V Priceless: god, I miss these guys..
	♥ 11:50am Mike East: we're gonna have to subrent a couple orange amps in a week or so and I'm hoping my availability to jam in the studio overlaps with when they are in house.
	11:51am frenchee: @bpdun88: zackly what I exclaimed....oh hai @V Priceless
	11:51am V Priceless: catch you later, Fish
	11:54am JakeGould: “I’m Hurted” is the wrong type of grammar.
	♥ 11:55am Greg from Bloomfield: @Jake: I would argue that it is right, and everybody else is wrong.
	11:56am Brendan: Love the silent movie piano tone
	♥ 11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for keeping me company this morning, folks! Have a great weekend and see you next time.

	10:01am Claw!: FISH!
	♥ 10:02am Brian in UK: Sorry end of June we will add one second to the atomic clocks.
	10:02am mauri: the romance of this song is just too much. italians in afros on a boat shining and somehow rhubarbs are there. Brian I'm doing good. exhausted from work and running. I'm trying to get a ride to a statuepark where I have a soundman gig. How are you Brain?
	♥ 10:04am Brian in UK: I am busy, lots of vegetable weeding to do. There is very little rain here so the ground needs much watering. Not enough time to ride my motorcycle.
	10:05am bobdoesthings: silverappless!!

	10:10am Brendan: Or 'Hey, got a second?' ...'Sure here ya go'
	♥ 10:11am coelacanth: the verse sounds like "lady godiva's operation".
	♥ 10:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...in four years, do they add a 2nd second?...
	10:14am fleep: Planet is slowing down due to wind resistance from billboards and Arby's signs.
	♥ 10:15am Brian in UK: I think the last add-on was in 2012. I'm off, I have no time for this.
	♥ 10:15am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...& - Donald Trump.
	♥ 10:15am coelacanth: ...but that's balanced out by the absence of trees.
	10:15am Malcolm: hello all. what does wfmu stand for?

	♥ 10:16am melinda: Plantasia!
	♥ 10:16am Brian in UK: 'Now the moment of great decision, The doctor makes his first incision'
	10:17am Brendan: If i recall its because the Earth is slowing in its rotation .. And all that 'mean solar day' length stuff. Its fine with me .. this crazy world needs to slow down anyway .. anyway... Who wants some lemonade... Hey you kids get off my lawn
	♥ 10:17am Brian in UK: It was the most recent one.
	♥ 10:20am Greg from Bloomfield: Reminds me of the "True Romance" soundtrack.
	10:21am Brendan: Sounds like Enya's gonna start singing
	♥ 10:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Once the moon spirals away, we won't have to add leap seconds anymore. I'm going to miss that moon someday.
	10:22am TellsTogo: @Brendan You're right, but that also means that the Moon will keep moving further and further away. So wanting more time is wanting less romance...
	10:23am timurf: death by chocolate!
	10:23am Claw!: So, Fish - you likely won't catch me on the boards later unless I get drunk and pop in. We are sending off a dear friend and colleague from the shop tonight by making a group excursion to Prince George's County's finest all-nude establishment. I have a nice stack of $2 bills handy. Shit's about to get stupid! ┌( ◉‿◉)┘
	10:24am Rev. Turnip Druid: Good lord -- a nudie establishment in PG... I'd be a-skeer'd.
	10:25am Claw!: Rev, it's aaalll good. It ain't our first rodeo at this spot. ;)
	♥ 10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The tilt of our orbital axis that creates the fixed Seasons is kept steady by our ☽Moon. This isn't true for ♂Mars...
	♥ 10:27am Brian in UK: Here's Adolf Hitler on vibes.
	10:28am Rev. Turnip Druid: Claw!: My time in th'county was mid-late 1970s, so I still picture it being all skinny white junkies with feathered hair & Lynrd Skynrd (sp?) t-shirts with marlboro packs rolled into a sleeve. Although now there's a certain "charm" in that... maybe...
	♥ 10:28am Ken From Hyde Park: @Claw! - Sounds like a good chance to gain some followers if you send Twit-pics tonight.
	10:28am blee: Letter B! I love that skit.
	10:29am Claw!: @Cken - Hah! I'm about to post a pic of my stack of $2s. ;)

	10:30am bobdoesthings: funny, my mother is a B word
	10:30am a listener: I'm willing to bet Macca got his grubby mits on the royalties for this.
	10:30am Claw!: Holy shit! I used to have an old Sesame Street VHS with this song on it! it also had "Around the Clock" and a couple others. Haven't heard this in YEARS. Thanks, Joe!
	♥ 10:30am MD: Now I wanna say letter B!!!
	10:31am fleep: $2 bills ... because $1's look cheap and $5's blow the budget too quickly...
	♥ 10:31am MD: Now I want all the letters to BE!!!
	10:31am jointhee: did he just accuse Liverpudlians of stealing ? terrible.
	♥ 10:32am MD: All the kids say letter B!!!
	♥ 10:32am coelacanth: Bear! sometimes we just have to buckle down and bear!(bare!) our responsibilities. if you have to go to a nudey bar there's no way around it!
	♥ 10:32am MD: All the kids they wanna BE!!!
	10:32am Claw!: @Rev - Ah, I understand. Well, I can't say I've seen much of that the last few times I've been. Progress?
	♥ 10:34am coelacanth: doesn't sound crazy!
	10:34am V Priceless: is that Stan Lee the guitarist or the Marvel guy?
	10:37am PKNY: Good TZAG, Joe and everybody! This Denise LaSalle had to come out after "Respect Yourself", right? Lots of similarities in groove and lyrics...
	10:37am Claw!: Hah, Fish. Yes... they are absolutely dragging me there. Kicking and screaming. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
	10:38am Claw!: Killer cut, Joe!
	♥ 10:40am Joe McG: @PKNY: Hmm, you may be right! I wish I had that single, Stax used to print the month and year on 'em!
	10:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: [most of the above insensitive stereotyping is based on observations @ Laurel's main-street festival, circa 1978]
	10:43am Claw!: Jeez, Rev. Way to make broad, sweeping generalizations...
	10:44am jointhee: RACEY YES
	10:44am Chapel Hillian: Is this Lettermen-lite?
	10:45am jointhee: quality of the programming has escalated since the introduction of the 7" bin.
	♥ 10:47am Joe McG: @Chapel: Yes, except they're singing about BAD things! @jointhee: Maybe when I croak I can donate my 45 collection to WFMU.
	♥ 10:47am coelacanth: Rev., parts of nj were the same scene back in the day.
	♥ 10:48am Joe McG: Hi, Michele! (Very late....)

	10:51am V Priceless: yo KG
	10:52am Claw!: What a great song
	10:53am Kurt Gottschalk: heya veep
	10:53am sphere: I think late-era Ernest Tubb is underrated.
	♥ 10:53am coelacanth: Rev,i straddled several lines as a teen. i was accepted by that crew because of my long hair, but i quietly loathed 'skynard and the outlaws,etc.!
	10:54am PKNY: Woah, some epic strings on this version of "Down by the River"!
	10:54am a listener: these 7"'s are always brilliant. Always.
	10:54am P-90: Hi DJ Joe McG and everyone. Fine show this morning. @Claw!: Looking forward to your twits!
	10:55am Will: Mellotron alert!
	10:55am fleep: A half-hour of bummers in a row...
	♥ 10:55am coelacanth: then when punk rock hit the sides were chosen!
	♥ 10:55am Michele: Single File so good today Joe!
	10:55am bobdoesthings: oh hey.. comments board.. My amp died on me last night.. after over a decade of service. Anyone got any recommendations on a good small (1x12") tube combo?
	10:56am Chapel Hillian: OMG, the first band I ever saw in concert, opener for John B. Sebastian circa 1973. They never amounted to much
	10:56am Rev. Turnip Druid: Claw: if i stopped hacking it off all the time, it would naturally be the total '70s middle-part swinger look, but with more self-loathing.
	11:00am P-90: @bobdoes: there are a plethora of options. How loud? A small gigging amp, or mainly for practica and recording? Fender-, Vox-, or Marshall- style? Or other? What was the original amp, were you happy with sound/performance? Are you sure you don't want to just fix that one?
	11:00am Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY CRAP, speaking of that time period, this FOUR SEASONS "disco version" was one of the first records I bought with my own money. Good grief.
	11:00am Brendan: Laurel had an xrated drive in movie theater off rte 1 well into the 1980s it was semi visible to ( ahem) non paying customers under a certain age who were willing to drive an old car full of likeminded 'interested' cinema goers of the teenage persuasion into a precarious situation requiring a four wheel drive mentality and a can do attitude
	♥ 11:00am Greg from Bloomfield: Had no idea this was the Four Seasons—it makes me hate them slightly less!
	11:01am Rev. Turnip Druid: ...because of this instrumental bit...
	11:01am V Priceless: this just in: Trump calls Young a "total hypocrite" @bobdoes - explore the Vox line...
	♥ 11:02am Ken From Hyde Park: Merry Half Christmas!
	11:02am a listener: I'm starting to think this board consists of extras from Dazed and Confused today...
	♥ 11:03am coelacanth: trump=free entertainment.
	11:03am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Brendan: yep, that drive-in was one of the Sidney Lust's franchise (the name made it infinitely better) ... quite the local landmark for a bit there.
	11:03am V Priceless: @ Ken FHP: Happy HOT SUMMER! : )
	♥ 11:03am Tome: the italian / irish wedding version ...
	11:04am bobdoesthings: @p-90.. oh yeah.. just realized how loaded this question is.. I got a lot to consider.. and nahh.. sorta wanted it to die.. It use to make a loud hum and if I punched the top like the fonz it would stop and work fine.. well I fonz'd it for the last time last night.. a LOUD low hum, a bright flash of light/sparks in the ventilation area and all the lights dimmed and died.. and I jsut stared blankly and sadly..
	11:04am Claw!: This version kicks ass
	11:04am Brendan: Telly Savalas ever cover this song?
	11:05am bobdoesthings: but now I get to research amps and go amp shopping!!
	11:05am PKNY: This a really long take of "Who Loves You" for a 45...what's the running time? Was this before they started releasing disco records on 12 inch, hence the 45 version?
	11:05am βrian: Update: Health care survives GOP court challenge."
	♥ 11:05am coelacanth: Brendan that would be incredible!
	11:06am V Priceless: what Fish said!
	11:07am Velvet Frog: @bobdoesthings Gear questions are always loaded and opinions so often make it worse. So here's my opinions. It somehow seems pedestrian, but I swear by my Blues Jr. Nice clean sound with a pretty broad sonic range. I'm mostly a rhythm player.I've got a friend who made miraculous sounds out of a Vox ACT4TV. it's a 1x10 He's a more aggressive player than me and it worked perfectly for him. More mid-range than the fender.
	♥ 11:09am Ken From Hyde Park: Years ago, I caught a band in Miami Beach that also used a violin on that.
	11:09am Claw!: Ew, fuck Randy Newman.
	11:10am P-90: @bobdoes: what make/model was it? there are some great bang-for-buck budget 12' amps these days, if you really want to do it right there is also a brisk trade in used "boutique" amps built by hand in small shops.
	11:10am bobdoesthings: @velvet -ahh thanks. i think I was looking at that vox last night.. gotta narrow down to a few and go out and play a bunch of them to really figure it out
	11:10am Brendan: @bob. Look for one that has an 11 volume setting.
	11:10am V Priceless: Yay Hugh!!
	11:10am a listener: Poly's last release was in 2011. The year she died. Got quite a bit of play on BBC6Music, I seem to remember.
	11:11am bobdoesthings: @p-90 - the amp I had was alright.. but I want more.. It was a marshall valvestate 2000 avt50.. I think one of those "half tube/half solid" amps..?
	11:11am Claw!: @Brendan - That is very sound advice.
	11:13am Claw!: Joe, did you just say DISCO????
	11:14am BriJet: Good morning Joe McG! :)
	♥ 11:14am Polyus: Oh yeah, local boy Sonny Knight!
	♥ 11:14am Joe McG: @Claw!: somebody said that, wasn't me! @BriJet: Good morning to YOU!
	11:14am Claw!: This will work! Uptempo, all the way.
	11:14am PKNY: Props to Sonny Knight to giving the drummer a whole lot on this!
	11:16am Brendan: Not entirely fond of the valvestate amp sounds flat/ boxy even with reverb up... Not a natural sounding reverb .
	♥ 11:16am listener monica: jeez that down by the river was so much better than neil's.
	11:17am P-90: @bob: Oh, you can do much better than that!!! Like you say, just as well, it's a chance to trade up to something much better. I suggest you start by looking at the wide field of 15-30 watt "Vox-style" amps that are available, there are even a number of the that switch from 15 or even 8-10 watts up to 30. Great for getting big all-tube tone at low volumes. Do look around for what's for sale "used", too.
	11:18am Brendan: Joe - git down with your bad self
	11:18am P-90: @bob: there's also a zillion small "Fender-style" amps.
	♥ 11:20am coelacanth: hey,P-90,any suggestions on brands for those "vox style" amps?
	11:21am bobdoesthings: @p-90 , yeah for sure.. I got some exploration to do for sure! Thanks for all the help.
	11:22am Eric: OMG these last 2 tracks, some of the funkiest music I've ever heard!
	11:23am Cecile: this is a nice rip of "Piece of my Heart"
	♥ 11:24am Joe McG: @Eric: This new Richard Marks anthology is my RECORD OF THE WEEK! Great stuff.
	11:25am V Priceless: @ Fish - yeah, Vox!
	♥ 11:25am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Vox for the aggressive guitarist? Interesting. I've recently become acquainted w/ the Marshall valvestate - & understand these estimations you give...
	♥ 11:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...despite life-long dreams of Marshall-dom...yerknow...
	11:27am V Priceless: hear lotsa good stuff about Orange, too, but no first-hand experience.
	11:28am Brendan: @bob - its also good to verify that your dealing with good salespeople who wont fly off the handle. A good test is walk into the establishment early - when then unlock the door--go directly to the largest nastiest looking amp and turn it to 10 and really explore the sound space.
	♥ 11:28am coelacanth: yeah V that's what a google search is trying to tell me!...but keep in mind that i'm really a soundscape person and probably shouldn't spend too much money on something a skilled guitarist would make good use of!
	♥ 11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ooh - Orange - beloved of Stoner Metallers. Different sizes? Wish Marcel M in on this amp chat maybe?
	11:30am Cecile: I appreciate the idea of this cover, but I don't feel it.
	♥ 11:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Sounds like Steve Martin - which appeals to me...
	11:32am Lewis: Yeah Steve Martin backed by Devo...
	11:32am A Better Me: Yes. I came to the playlist the see if it was Steve Martin
	11:32am V Priceless: @ Fish - tiny Vox tube amp - great if you don't need big power, plus it looks cool: www.voxamps.com...
	♥ 11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Looks class - but 4 Watts won't get far w/ a drummer...
	♥ 11:35am common: joe great people good thursday
	♥ 11:35am Mike East: Orange are sweet...way too expensive though. Fender Hotrod Deluxe 1x12 is a nice little amp.
	11:35am Cecile: YES. Where's DCP?
	♥ 11:35am SeanG: DEVO
	11:35am Claw!: YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSS
	♥ 11:35am Greg from Bloomfield: Morning, common!
	11:35am V Priceless: nope, Rev - strictly practice, home studio app hey common!
	♥ 11:37am common: greg, vp
	11:37am Rev. Turnip Druid: Large yay.
	11:37am Cecile: that would be a great facebook status: "sending out an aroma of undefined love"
	♥ 11:37am Greg from Bloomfield: DEVO. Flawless victory.
	11:37am frenchee: looks like I tuned in a just the right moment....the DEVO moment.
	11:38am V Priceless: ha
	♥ 11:39am coelacanth: V -ha! i was just looking at the ac4. it may be perfect for me. (since the only drummer i'm playing with cannot play drums simultaneously!) ...i just want a different sound to compliment the small "Mars all" bass amp.
	11:39am bobdoesthings: @brendan - it's also helpful to play the most loud, dissonant, and angressive riffs I know too right?
	11:39am Cecile: I think Arthur Russell faked his own death, because there is a new CD almost every month by him.
	11:40am Cecile: I say this with all due respect. He's more prolific than most living artists.
	♥ 11:40am Joe McG: @Cecile: Eventually they'll run out of archives, but it's nice that they keep finding worthwhile material.
	♥ 11:41am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Everybody's got a Fender amp. Because reasonable & not bad. Interesting these amps that switch Wattage depending on whether practice or noise competition mode...
	11:41am Cecile: it's very true, Joe!
	11:42am P-90: @amp shoppers: there's a lot of articles/webpages like these, you can read a bunch of them toget a sense of what's out there. BUT you gotta play through the amp yourself of course, before you buy. Again, it really pays to see what's used in your area. http://middle8reviews.com/top-12-low-watt-tube-amps-500/ http://www.premierguitar.com/articles/Champions_of_Chime_The_EL84_Roundup http://www.guitarplayer.com/amplifiers/1017/roundup-nine-1x12-combo-amps/23818
	11:43am bobdoesthings: @p-90 - nice, thanks!
	♥ 11:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yeah Thx P-90.
	11:45am Brendan: @bob depends on the sales associate . You can ask if the like decaf or regular, that should give you a feel for the soundscape you are going for.
	11:46am Brendan: Because they wont be needing the coffee
	♥ 11:48am common: i want an orange hey this sounds like the columbo episode i saw last eve great!
	♥ 11:49am coelacanth: it's time to get out. those weeds wont wack themselves! Thanks Joe! Thanks for amp discussion! have fun tonight Bear!! later on animals.
	11:50am bpdun88: Morphine!!!!!
	11:50am V Priceless: god, I miss these guys..
	♥ 11:50am Mike East: we're gonna have to subrent a couple orange amps in a week or so and I'm hoping my availability to jam in the studio overlaps with when they are in house.
	11:51am frenchee: @bpdun88: zackly what I exclaimed....oh hai @V Priceless
	11:51am V Priceless: catch you later, Fish
	11:54am JakeGould: “I’m Hurted” is the wrong type of grammar.
	♥ 11:55am Greg from Bloomfield: @Jake: I would argue that it is right, and everybody else is wrong.
	11:56am Brendan: Love the silent movie piano tone
	♥ 11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for keeping me company this morning, folks! Have a great weekend and see you next time.
	11:56am Cecile: one of the great things of my life was seeing Dan Penn and Spooner Oldham opening for Nick Lowe
	11:56am bobdoesthings: thanks joe!!!
	11:56am V Priceless: swell show, Joe! Thanx!
	♥ 11:57am Greg from Bloomfield: Likewise, Joe!
	11:57am Brendan: We love Joe! Yeah!!!!
	11:57am Claw!: Great show, Joe, thanks! Catch you on the Twit Machine?
	11:59am Cecile: wasn't Jimi Tenor a drum and bass guy for a while?
