Listener comments!
	6:06am Sem Chumbo: Gotta match?
	6:07am pacific standard simon: Your face and my ass.
	6:10am Stanley: I say, PSS, that's a bit strong.
	6:10am Nate K.: Morning, gang. Things getting rowdy early?
	6:12am pacific standard simon: Ooooold joke.
	6:12am Sem Chumbo: Hey, Stanley, PSS. Nate, you're the Rowdy Roddie Piper here. You're calling the tune:-)
	6:14am fred: Good morning Nate and all
	6:14am pacific standard simon: Gotta light, mac?
	6:14am Nate K.: Thanks, Sem. I wear that moniker with pride in honor of the late great Roderick George "Roddy Rowdy" Toombs
	6:21am DaveinPA: knockin it out of the park today, Nate K!
	6:21am KP: I know the Gene Clark is expressly for me Nate and I extremely appreciate it.
	6:25am pacific standard simon: www.youtube.com... Goodnight sweetheart.
	6:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...whut the Folk is this, Punk? ...Jerry Lee - killer...
	6:28am Sem Chumbo: Blues with a happy ending.
	6:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Sem - great name for an album, porno, or Taoist treatise...
	6:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...trifecta...
	6:31am Nate K.: Don't worry @Revo, there's plenty of noise pollution to come!
	6:32am Sem Chumbo: You're on fire this am, RevRab.
	6:33am Stanley: What weird lyrics
	6:34am mauri: brun it brown
	6:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...I'll soak my head & have a cuppa. Great set.
	6:36am lunch: nice tunage nate
	6:56am kev: got my swag yesterday! thx
	7:00am fred: Brown Acid, First Daze, Passout, LSD, is there a theme to this set? If so, how does America Now fits there?
	7:03am Sem Chumbo: "Like Going Down Sideways"? Is Nate trolling you here, fred?
	7:04am Nate K.: @Fred, let me think on that...
	7:09am fred: @Sem: Nate is the (hopefully benevolent) dictator here, he can troll as much as he wants. I'm happy to feel the burn (Bern?)
	7:14am Nate K.: @Fred I've thought about it. I think the dumb-yet- brilliant hairy-guy, acid-blown, neanderthal rock is the antidote to "America Today"? Maybe?
	7:20am fred: Well, then again America Today seems to be seriously considering a dumb-yet-successful neanderthal with acid-fueled-hair-cred for president
	7:21am tomas: coneheads. best band
	7:25am kev: PJ highway 61 more love for Bob Happy Birthday
	7:26am Nate K.: @Fred, I think that's Trump's new campaign slogan.
	7:28am Sem Chumbo: @fred even being from, as National Lampoon once called Canada,"the Retarded Giant Next Door", and having grown up submerged in the 10,000 things of Americanism, I do not have a clue why things politically have come to this. Novelty that morphs into a credible run for POTUS makes me feel the same way that I did, stoned, watching Ronald Reagan on late night half hour infomercials in the fall of '79. Something terminally and terribly askew.
	7:34am fred: A personal favorite dance show was called Small Hands (out of the lie of no). That would fit too. That was a duo with my favorite dancer (Cynthia Loemij) dancing with my fave choreographer (Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker). The show was sold out and I had worked 30+ hours straight, but I went to the venue begging for a ticket 6 hours before opening time. Someone at the venue took pity and sold me one, with the provision that I couldn't take up a seat but had to seat right on the border of the stage. Is that a bad thing? I don't think so
	7:38am Sem Chumbo: Point taken, w/ gratitude for the clarity, fred.
	7:39am Sem Chumbo: AFK
	7:45am fred: @Sem: It looks like we may very well elect our first female president over here in france. If that looks like progress, she's leading the national front. If Reagan was proof of something terminally ans terribly askew, do you have words for a Brigitte Bardot supported neo-nazi?
	7:55am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: WWII followed the Depression. Take the money out, people get mean & vote for Fascists. This is known, & none of it is by accident - altho' Trump may be a Frankenstein's monster not even the Republican Party planned on - tho' every policy prepared his way. Our 1st female U.S. Prez may very well be the blandest Nixonian appeal to the 'Silent Majority' imaginable...But the irresponsible, unresponsive & corrupt System cannot - & will not - stand very much longer. Not everyone is drinking the koolaid - & the foundations are rotten & as unreliable to stand on as our failing highway bridges...
	8:00am fred: @RevRab: I'm afraid you're being too optimistic there. That corrupt system has stood for thousand of years. Its foundations are sound, based on self-interest, real or imagined. Most people don't want to take from the rich because they think they'll soon join the club. That's the real purpose of the American Dream meme.
	8:07am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Yes - but more see thru the American Dream given the intensity of the American Nightmare they're living - all the time. Trump is in fact the manipulated & inarticulate manifestation of it - & Bernie is the more informed version. The perpetrators of the Dream are perhaps the most addicted to it - but it cannot endure for even them either - whatever they believe. The resources just aren't there for that much more of it...I'm not optimistic @ all - in the sense that I see catastrophe. Economic & Environmental collapse seem more likely all the time.
	8:08am kev: Biafra/Rollins for prez
	8:11am fred: Last night I was talking about Prince songs with a friend, and it took us a while to figure out we were talking about the same song: Cream. There's a lot in that song
	8:14am Sem Chumbo: @fred 7:45: stop me if I respond to this as i have recently to other news both unexpected and confounding: speechless
	8:16am Sem Chumbo: This is getting some play all across the Fun 91. Glad of it, Nate, to hear more here.
	8:17am Nate K.: @Sem, I'm not surprised. It slays.
	8:19am fred: @Sem: piling on: her second in command is openly gay, and she has support in zionist circles because they both want Jews to move from france to israel. The center does not hold
	8:27am Sem Chumbo: Jesus, fred, overt carrot and stick at the same time. Zugzwang.
	8:34am fred: @Sem: She trades in hate, and every community relates to that. Jews support her because she hates Arabs. Arabs support her because she hates Jews. Blacks support her because she hates Arabs. Whites support her because she hates all of the above. Hate as a unifier. Trump could be president
	8:35am Sem Chumbo: @fred: If Trump becomes President, I might have to move to Cape Breton.
	8:37am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Elections are about Enthusiasm. It's a hell of a way to choose World Leaders.
	8:40am fred: @Sem: looks like you could be fighting out invaders. Though people always say they'll leave, then end up supporting the new leader. Moving is such a personal ordeal, fascism only affects others
	8:45am Will: Thanks for playing the Remains, Nate! Went to see them at a junior high school (!) in Pawtucket RI last Saturday -- it was fund raiser for the school and 50 people showed up. Oh well. They were good too.
	8:46am Sem Chumbo: Yes, fred, the lessons of human history, repetitive though they may be, are like the house odds in Vegas. Ignored at your peril.
	8:46am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: True - but we Muricans don't like our wallets messed w/ tho'. The question then is do you go w/ Hitler or FDR...or - our choice this year is maybe more like Mussolini, Nixon, or FDR - the lite versions... Remains still playing! ...Soundtrack to the political conference flawless, btw...
	8:47am Nate K.: @Will, that's wild. I'm impressed that the band agreed to do it. I wonder if it was post Beatles tour.
	8:47am fred: That Billy Childish kinda runs again the claim about The Remains
	8:48am kev: if everyone leaves who will be left?
	8:51am fred: again should be against. I just suck at multitasking
	8:51am Will: Post-Beatles tour -- Nate, this was LAST Saturday night! I think Barry Tashian had a colleague who worked at the school and convinced them to play for the "fund raiser."
	8:52am Sem Chumbo: Thanks, Nate the K. for this mornings' smoking show! See you again, I hope. Prochaine fois, fred, revrab, and all.
	8:54am fred: Thanks Nate, again (but I never tire of it)
	8:58am Nate K.: @Will, ha! I was thinking this was 50 years ago! That's still awesome that they agreed to do it.
	8:58am Nate K.: Thanks everybody. I'll catch you next week.

Nate the K. looks back on some of his favorite LPs, EPs, singles, reissues, and archival releases from the year that was. Tracks will be played in no particular order, because to paraphrase Michael Shelley and Hot Chocolate, respectively, they're all number one hits and everyone's a winner, baby...that's no lie.
