	12:19pm Jeff Golick: Well, you sure are funky, @Artie, in any event.
	12:20pm Cecile: how about Motorhead by Motorhead?
	12:20pm Cecile: Ballad of Paul Revere by Paul Revere and the Raiders?
	12:21pm Cecile: man this song was so killer when they did it live. Ridiculous.
	12:21pm Jeff Golick: @Cecile: great suggestions! Sadly, I have neither at hand. Handing in my dj badge now...
	12:22pm Cecile: oh, don't sweat it. hahhaha
	12:22pm Dean: Bad Company
	12:23pm Cecile: OH! Moulty by the Barbarians?

	12:24pm Uncle Michael: Hey! Try this! ebs-radio.com...
	12:25pm Jeff Golick: Heh, @UM! Not surprised you've been there, done that. Amazingly (if not alarmingly), we will have zero overlap here today...
	12:26pm Jeff Golick: Slightly fuzzier rubric at work here now...
	12:26pm Uncle Michael: That's excellent!
	12:28pm Cecile: I like songs that tell the story of the band. Doesn't have to have the same title as the band. Oh! The Story of THEM. Or even, uh, Kiss's Beth. or 80% of Toys in the Attic.
	12:30pm Dean: The Clash, "What's My Name?"
	12:32pm βrian: Light gloom on the isthmus today. A good day for a walk.
	12:34pm βrian: If a band wants to be self-referential, it ought to be named Ouroboros.
	12:35pm Dean: There are bands named Eponymous and The Self-Titled. Ziggy Stardust?
	12:35pm Uncle Michael: We were just another band out of Boston...on the road to try and make ends meet. Playing all the bars...sleeping in our cars. We'd practice right on out in the street...
	12:36pm Jeff Golick: I see you there, @βrian.
	12:36pm Cecile: oy. I remember that.
	12:37pm Jeff Golick: Ziggy and The Clash didn't quite make the cut. Nor "Ashes to Ashes."
	12:38pm Dean: Then there are songs by band X that refer to band Y: Nick Lowe's "Rollers Show."
	12:39pm Jeff Golick: Pavement's "Gold Soundz," too, @Dean.
	12:39pm doctorjazz: Didn't They Might Be Giants do one self titled?
	12:40pm Dean: Dead Boys' "All This and More."
	12:40pm Jeff Golick: Might have to throw in a bonus set for this show...for those who can stick around...
	12:41pm Dean: The Adverts' "One Chord Wonders"?
	12:42pm Jeff Golick: You're killing me, @Dean.
	12:42pm Dean: Chicago Symphony Orchestra's "We Are the Chicago Symphony Orchestra." [Made that one up.]
	12:44pm doctorjazz: Hey, Hey, we're the Monkees!
	12:44pm Dean: Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra's "Fuck the Chicago Symphony Orchestra." [That's for real.]
	12:44pm Dean: Joke's so good I posted it twice.
	12:45pm Jeff Golick: PLEDGE ALERT: Thanks to listener Katharine from Brooklyn, NY, for her pledge - the show's first! Thanks, Kate!
	12:46pm βrian: Inspector Clouseau was a big fan of the Monkees.
	12:47pm Artie Haywire: Minutemen: “Just me and Mike Watt playing guitar”
	12:48pm Jeff Golick: Minutemen comin' up, @Artie!
	12:48pm Artie Haywire: Yip!!
	12:48pm Jeff Golick: Also possible: songs about bands and their record labels -- "EMI" et al.
	12:49pm Brian in UK: Saw Mike Watt last year, he leaves nothing behind when he plays.
	12:49pm doctorjazz: Great Stones!
	12:49pm ?: HERE WE GO
	12:50pm Brian in UK: The four kings of EMI are sitting stately on the floor.
	12:52pm Jeff Golick: Hey there, @Brian in UK! And howdy, ?!
	12:52pm Brian in UK: Bless my soul, hello Jeff.
	12:53pm Artie Haywire: Surely The Mysterians can't be far behind...
	12:53pm Jeff Golick: PLEDGE ALERT!!! Thanks to listener @Dean in Berkeley, CA, for the wonderful pledge. Much obliged, as ever!
	12:54pm Dean: My pledger.
	12:56pm ndbob: excellent show Jeff!
	12:56pm Dean: Ian Dury & the blockheads, "Blockheads" (anachronistically speaking)
	12:57pm Jeff Golick: Thanks, @ndbob!
	12:58pm Jeff Golick: PLEDGE ALERTS!! Big thanks to listener @Julia in LA, CA, and to listener @Ron in Raleigh, NC, for the tremendous pledge help! YOU RULE!
	12:58pm Dean: Queen, "Killer Queen"
	12:59pm Cecile: this song always makes me happy and sad.
	12:59pm northguineahills: Wow, it's already 1! Thanks Jeff, great show!
	1:00pm listener james from westwood: Holy crap, NGH is right! Thanks, Jeff!
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: Thanks and hi/bye, @ngh!
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: Know what you mean, @Cecile.
	1:00pm Jeff Golick: Bonus set coming up for those what can stick around...
	1:01pm βrian: Pinkus is great head-dipping music.
	1:01pm Uncle Michael: Indulge!
	1:03pm Dean: Rema-Rema
	1:04pm Cecile: thanks!
	1:06pm Jeff Golick: @βrian: yuppers. @Cecile: Thanks to you!
	1:09pm ?: Did Van rip off Mick et al, or did they rip off Van?
	1:10pm Jeff Golick: I think they both ripped off older blues musicians.
	1:10pm Artie Haywire: "Influences"
	1:13pm βrian: Such a melodic singer ….
	1:15pm Dean: That title makes me think of Rundgren, which makes me think of Utopia, which makes me think of "Utopia."
	1:19pm Uncle Michael: This is not the ballad of Mott the Hoople.
	1:20pm Jeff Golick: You got it, @UM. Mott have a surprising number of self-referential songs. Perhaps more than any other band (that I'm aware of).
	1:21pm Dean: "Who Are You"
	1:22pm Jeff Golick: There's no bombast like 1970s bombast.
	1:23pm Dean: Snoop Doggy Dogg "Who Am I? (What's My Name?)"
	1:23pm northguineahills: Yaye, YLT!
	1:24pm northguineahills: You already played the Beatles, and Kurt played it Friday, but "You Know My Name, Look Up the Number".
	1:24pm Artie Haywire: So many rappers with the "all about me" song. D-Nice may have claimed the title for most repetitions of his own name in one song.
	1:25pm "Little" Artie Haywire: ...perhaps dethroning even the mighty Bo Diddley.
	1:26pm Dean: Olaf the Snowman, "In Summer"
	1:26pm Artie Haywire: "Hey, Hey, We're The Gories"
	1:26pm βrian: Nosotros la tenemos.
	1:26pm Jeff Golick: Yeah, hip-hop was tough -- most tunes I considered didn't have quite the same self-referential feeling I was going for. Maybe Ice Cube's "It Was a Good Day?"
	1:29pm Uncle Michael: Thanks Jeff!
	1:31pm Jeff Golick: My pleasure, @Uncle Michael!
