Listener comments!
	12:06am Rory: I would really love to see Circle live someday.
	12:09am Dean: Does Secret Oyster count?
	12:09am Wm.: This new live album is like a 70s Magma record, it's that good ...
	12:10am Rory: Indeed
	12:10am Wm.: @Dean Denmark counts, yes, but I would have had to remember to bring it with me. I'll take a look here, good call, I just spaced on them when I was loading my satchel.
	12:11am JayD: Digging this Circle track though it sounds like a trapezoid to me.
	12:15am Dean: I'm just riffing. Supersister'd be nice, too. Meanwhile, this Circle is amazing.
	♥ 12:15am Ike: Mmmmfmffmfmfmfmfmfmfmfmfm
	12:16am Wm.: No Secret Oyster here, next time for sure
	12:16am William: @JayD youtu.be...
	12:22am Rory: Wow! Fantastic start Wm. keep it up!
	12:26am Dean: Brings me back to the days of KNAC's progressive rock programming.
	12:30am JayD: Listening on headphones in the dark, this set is inducing all kinds of synesthesia related imaginings. Gorgeous.
	12:34am Wm.: ...I can almost hear a platter of smoked fish ...
	12:34am Irene: These guys sure listened to a lot of old Genesis !
	♥ 12:37am common: strange and great
	12:41am Rory: Play some Pharaoh Overlord
	12:46am Wm.: I'm partial to Rättö ja Lehtisalo, listen to them often @ home, but can never really work them into the "regular" Castle ....
	1:01am sinister dexter: loving this!
	1:02am dan in wisconsin: This Jukka Tolonen shreds! Hi everyone.
	1:03am Ioannis: Good morning from Greece people! I love contemporary Finnish Rock and Ektro's bands are superb!
	1:12am Rory: Need to get this Krokofant!
	1:33am brycepunk: Sir W.M. ... It is always such a pleasure when I manage to catch some of your show.
	1:34am Wm.: Kippis!
	1:35am soup and fog: Something about that Hebosagil track reminded me of Kazuki Tomokawa. Great show Wm!
	1:39am Scraps deSelby: Oh man, I missed Samla Mammas Manna
	1:42am Scraps deSelby: (or Zamla Mammaz Manna. Or something)
	1:50am Scraps deSelby: Me too!
	1:53am JayD: Yeah Tarot Society shout out!
	1:55am Wm.: @Scraps ... does the "deSelby" in your screen name come from the footnotes of The Third Policeman?
	1:57am Wm.: Whup! Never mind...looks like it's your real surname. ...I just thought that would have been a remarkable coincidence as I use names from that novel's footnotes often, as Web aliases ...
	1:58am Scraps deSelby: Well of course! Ahem. Yes. It's one of my favorite books.
	1:59am Wm.: Such a wonderful book! I've used "hatchjaw" and "kraus" before, haha
	2:00am Scraps deSelby: In fact, when I took the name, I looked around and disovered that, as I as I know, O'Brien made up the name.
	2:02am Scraps deSelby: I used Hatchjaw as an internet name also.
	2:02am Wm.: ...Have you read the "Myles" stuff? O'Brien's columns & letters from Irish newspapers—? Hilarious!
	2:03am Wm.: ...great minds...
	2:04am Scraps deSelby: Yep! In fact, I dug up two more obscure collections of Myles's stuff, other than TheBest of Myles
	2:05am Wm.: Damn!
	2:06am Wm.: Once a year or so I try to read At Swim Two Birds, it's like his Ulysses. I don't think I'm enough of a hallucinating drunkard to grasp that one, haha
	2:07am Scraps deSelby: And the awesome press Dalkey Archive has at least one of those collections in print.
	2:08am Wm.: Yes, the Dalkey Archive! I'll have to look into it, thanks!!
	2:12am Scraps deSelby: I love At Swim Two Birds. It's not thick. When you reach one of the thorny sections, it will pass soon! I think you would think it very funny if you press on... but I'm just a fan, and you already are a fan, so! Now I'm done.
	2:16am Scraps deSelby: Yeah, Ibsen!
	2:27am Scraps deSelby: Myles: Further Cuttings from Cruiskeen Lawn www.amazon.com...
	2:29am Scraps deSelby: And one more, called At War www.amazon.com...
	2:29am Wm.: Ah! Cheers! More cranial rattles in my future, thanks
	2:30am Scraps deSelby: Now I'm really done!
	2:42am Scraps deSelby: Jesus, I just read your bio. I have three Uncle Wiggly albums. Sometimes I put two or three songs from There Was An Elk on tape/cd mixes. Well, neat!
	2:45am Wm.: Haha oh yes my secret past! That's great, always cheers me to meet anyone who knows/likes our records
	2:47am Wm.: 'twas another lifetime...Matt W. played U.W. a few weeks ago, a song from Across the Room & Into Your Lap... I was taken aback because I forget that we were good. I need to revisit our works, it's been a while for me.
	♥ 2:48am Michael 98145: Geez, i love this place. Music and books i've never heard of before. Scraps, i hope your rehab is going well.
	2:50am Scraps deSelby: Thanks, Michael. Slow but my therapists say it's going well, so....
	2:53am Scraps deSelby: I never saw Uncle Wiggly unfortunately. I saw two shows by Fly Ashtray, but that's probably not quite the same.
	2:56am Wm.: ...well at one point we had two members in common with Fly Ashtray, later one, James Kavoussi aka pHoaming Edison. There's definitely some style overlap; if anything, FA are a little more noodly/psych, definitely a 2-guitar band. UW, a bit more pointy/SST, but we shared company and records and influences for sure. Love those guys...
	♥ 2:56am Michael 98145: Well, take care. G'night.
	2:57am tracy: thanks, Bergs.
	2:58am Wm.: (With Uncle Wiggly you got me, and I'm pretty fucking alright.)
	2:58am Wm.: "Bergs"! hahahahahaha
	2:59am tracy: hahah yeah sorry, I guess mentally I refer to you as that. heavy on the errrrrrrrrrrrrrghhhhss
	3:01am Scraps deSelby: Awesome. See ya!
	♥ 2:07pm SiHV: Listening. Love the Kebnekajse cover.
	3:34pm Rory: This might be my top 10 favorite Castle show. Every song, every transition... You're a fucking genius Berger!
