	3:11pm Bronwyn Bishop: Grandpa was a rocker in the 70s but is currently old enough to be in an old folks home? I'm confused. Shouldn't Grandpa be in his late 60s or thereabouts?

	🎸 ♥ 3:30pm Alison Porchnik: Enough of this kid stuff. When are we going to hear the Old Pornographers? Apologies if this joke has been made before.

	3:42pm βrian: All honor to international women!
	3:43pm TehBadDr: Wait, is that one of my exes?
	3:44pm Bronwyn Bishop: I want to do karaoke with the Closet Queen.
	3:45pm Roberto: <-- My cat doesn't quite know what to make of the Closet Queen.
	♥ 3:45pm Irwin: Next drawing: Courtney Barnett's A Sea of Split Peas Double EP
	♥ 3:46pm Greg from ZONE 5: WANT
	♥ 3:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Yeah...put this song on hyperloop!
	3:50pm steve: this guy knows whats up
	3:50pm Wilson K: Wow... someone has inherited Wesley Willis' mantle
	3:51pm Wilson K: HANK 3
	3:51pm TehBadDr: That feeling that you've been there before.
	3:53pm Listening Out There: Duck's Breath...
	3:54pm βrian: Sushi could be currency.
	3:55pm Economically Anxious (Certainly Not Racist): Right, Duck's Breath: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck's_Breath_Mystery_Theatre
	3:55pm Listener Robert: I remember Ian Shoals on, uh, I think NPR. Your guide to popular culture.
	3:55pm Listening Out There: Ian Scholes was in Duck's Breath Mystery Theater. I think you're right that his screeds were on NPR...
	3:56pm Lewis: between them, Irwin and Tony probably have a good portion of the cassette historical record...
	3:57pm Listener Robert: I recall his having been on TV too, where he'd do a fast-talking walkout same as his audio bits. Like quick on & off the stage, pacing around a little on his way.
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Alison Porchnik: You outed me!
	🎸 ♥ 3:57pm Alison Porchnik: Damn you, Chusid.
	3:58pm βrian: @Lewis: As of yesterday Mendota is ice-free. Huge whitecaps today.
	3:58pm Bronwyn Bishop: Irwin, I've told all my friends that you helped inspire the creation of the film School of Rock with your resurrection of the Langley School project, and they're very impressed because that film was a touchstone in all of our lives, for some reason.
	♥ 3:59pm Ike: I'm getting Irwin's premium (via pre-marathon pledge) because cassette weirdness is always irresistible, despite the fact that he's a thuggish mega-capitalist reactionary brute. Fortunately our evil liberal death panels will take care of him soon! SOON!
	3:59pm Lewis: Thanks Brian - the wind is probably a big factor. Hope nobody lost their fish house...
	♥ 4:03pm coelacanth∅: what a voice!
	4:04pm Listener Robert: Cong. Parker introduced the world to Radamananoff.
	♥ 4:08pm coelacanth∅: help! my tv's broken! there's nothing but shit coming out of it!
	4:09pm JakeGould: “Push the circuit breaker.” Paid for by the National Circuit Breaker Council.
	4:10pm Old Dave: Haven't needed a TV since I discovered WFMU
	4:12pm Ralphine: I wouldn't give up TV for anything.
	🎸 ♥ 4:13pm Alison Porchnik: I want to hear Sabu
	4:13pm JakeGould: THE BOSS SOUND!!!
	♥ 4:14pm Irwin: Bass on this Gibbs track: Theremin virtuoso Pamelia Kurstin
	4:15pm Listening Out There: I watched a stream from Lincoln Center of Terry Gibbs's band. Great drummer but a bit of a jerk...
	♥ 4:16pm Irwin: He's an amazing drummer, can't vouch for his charisma. Art Blakey was an incredible drummer -- and he taught many of his sidemen how to use heroin.
	♥ 4:19pm coelacanth∅: Terry or Gerry? (does Terry play drums?)
	♥ 4:20pm coelacanth∅: maybe she's a "virtuosette"? (now ducking)
	4:25pm Lewis: a) we are at heart a blue state; b) we have a strong cohort here (hi Cecile and Aaron).
	4:25pm Bronwyn Bishop: I want Christgau to call me something.
	♥ 4:25pm melinda: He gave it a C? Lame.
	4:26pm βrian: But right next door is Red Wisconsin. Ugh!
	4:27pm Listening Out There: I'm enjoying the Tom Wilson, BTW. Keep 'em comin'...
	4:28pm Lewis: and Brian is an honorary member of the Twin Cities cohort!
	4:30pm JakeGould: Not all of Wisconsin is red.
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm Alison Porchnik: And yet Mike Nichols did wear a hair hat!
	4:32pm TehBadDr: Home! Home is where you wear your hat! Wait, Home! Home is where you wear your hair?
	4:33pm Lewis: how about the 4:33 extended mix!
	4:34pm Listener Robert: Anybody else having trouble getting the bar graph widget to display inline on the playlist pages? I can see it as a page on its own, but not as an inline graphic. MSIE in use here.
	4:34pm berbo: I prefer the book.
	4:34pm Listener Robert: I think that was a COVER of "0:10".
	4:34pm JakeGould: OMG! I just had to hear my co-workers! Stop!
	♥ 4:35pm coelacanth∅: plagiarism! it sounded just like the refrigerator, which was doing it first.
	4:35pm Devin B.: I really liked the part where it was windy and I heard my dogs collar jingle as we ran across a field
	♥ 4:35pm Ike: Not bad, but it's not the same without the background coughing.
	4:35pm Listener Chrispy: Cheers!
	4:37pm Leonardo: I don't think I've heard two people on radio with less chemistry.
	4:37pm Listener Robert: I still wanna know how much you have to surpass the goal by to make the cow tip over & kick its feet ecstatically in the air.
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: Leonardo, you obviously weren't listening a few years back when somebody's bright idea was to match-up djs & co-hosts seemingly randomly. (Stan's show was the most painful, i think)
	♥ 4:42pm Irwin: Thank you, Leonardo, it's very kind of you to say. We appreciate your abundant positivity.
	4:42pm Listener Robert: Who, Leonardo? Nichols & May, or Irwin & Bethany? Lack of "chemistry" (reaction) can be a great gimmick if they work it right.
	4:44pm Listener Robert: We could put together worse if we work at it. Nachum + Kenny G?
	♥ 4:47pm Uncle Michael: Nachum and Kenny G are together at last.
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm rrg: Egad. I never heard a cover of this before.
	♥ 4:48pm coelacanth∅: actually i think the Irwin-Bethany is pretty good. their fundamental differences provide tension but they roll with it quite nicely. - and i like it.
	♥ 4:48pm Ike: Actually Nachum and Kenny G were on together briefly once or twice IIRC and they were fairly funny together.
	4:48pm Listener Robert: Chris T. + Jeff Sarge? Todd + Ilene Trudel?
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm rrg: Differences? What differences?
	4:50pm Old Dave: I remember this Marshall Efron guy... man, I'm old! But his show was funny as hell...
	4:50pm Listening Out There: Static cling is usually fatal...
	4:50pm Listener Robert: Michelle Boule + Irw...wait a minute!
	4:52pm Listener Robert: Laura Cantrell + Pat Duncan?
	4:52pm Listener Chrispy: Me and Fred and Dave and Ted ?
	4:53pm Marc15: Is a free tonsillectomy from Dr. Peckton Irwin's Marathon Grand Prize Premium?
	♥ 4:55pm coelacanth∅: maybe Chris T would tone it down in Jeff's presence. Todd and Irene though! that would be like watching a child repeatedly trying to stick a paper clip into an electrical socket while the other repeatedly almost let's him/her do it.
	♥ 4:55pm Ike: I could tell you several of the worst pairings I've heard, but I'd rather be positive and say that Irwin and Bryce together several years ago was one of the best pairings ever. Really freaking funny.
	4:56pm TDK60: Happy International Women's Day folks. Love the cassettes, of course.
	4:56pm Bronwyn Bishop: Now I'm nervous for my upcoming first-ever marathon shows. I hope y'all like it when I co-host with Irwin and Billy Jam and we don't show up in the annals of "worst pairing ever" lists.
	4:58pm Bronwyn Bishop: GO VOLUNTEERS!!!!!
	4:58pm Listener Chrispy: I like everything you host / co-host Bronwyn :D Thank you!
	4:59pm Listener Robert: The Old Codger + Alan Watts?
	4:59pm Bronwyn Bishop: Thanks Chrispy, I like you!
	5:00pm Bronwyn Bishop: Bethany, I love your show! I love classical too and I'm glad it's on FMU more thanks to you.
	♥ 5:01pm Ike: @BB, I'm confident that you & Billy Jam will be great together. That should be a live wire of energy. Pure audio caffeine. As for Irwin, uh... I'm sure you'll be great. For best results, I advise you to give him hell. ;)
	♥ 5:01pm coelacanth∅: there was a pairing in the early 90s that i remember to this day, because me and my friend were literally falling on the floor laughing - but i don't remember who it was. i thought to record it at the time but i had no blank tape there. i feel like it was Scott Williams but i think he wasn't on yet at that time.
	♥ 5:05pm Ike: @c∅, I believe Scott W. started in... '96 maybe? On overnights. So early 90s wouldn't track. Could it have involved Tom Crowe? He was hilarious.
	5:05pm Listener Robert: Nick the Bard + the guy who did "Thos. Edison's Attic"?
	5:06pm Listener Chrispy: I became a lifer today anyone know when the badge shows up on the right there x_X
	5:07pm Leonardo: I will treble my pledge if they put Irene Trudel together with Toddaphonic Todd.
	5:10pm Listener Robert: Nardwuar + Kevin Nutt!
	♥ 5:10pm coelacanth∅: Ike, that name sounds only very slightly familiar, so probably not. i do know it was evening, maybe 8-9 pm, and it was a male and female, and they were playing with a voice modulator - being very suggestive in their interpretations of carvel ice-cream commercials!
	5:11pm TDK60: Kenny G. & Irwin paired once was truly hilarious. I know: I have it on cassette.
	5:12pm Listener Robert: Dave Emory + Dave The Spazz!
	♥ 5:12pm coelacanth∅: nah - Kevin has a sense of humour; but Nardwuar and Dave the spazz would be a trainwreck, that's for sure.
	5:14pm Bethany Ryker: @BronwynBishop! Yes, we must connect!!! I had heard from Stork :) So glad you are a part of the FMU Family!!
	♥ 5:15pm Michael 98145: - fun for sale -
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm rrg: I love that on marathon shows we revisit favorites.
	5:16pm Bethany Ryker: Irwin - I'm glad that our RED-HOT chemistry is on the DL. That's for after-hours and has no place during the Marathon.
	♥ 5:17pm Irwin: {wink wink, bethany babe}
	5:19pm Listener Robert: Dusty + Morbid? If anyone could "break" Mr. Pigeon, it might've been Morbid.
	♥ 5:19pm coelacanth∅: fun for sale, beauty for sale...that's how i felt as a teenager when my friends would spend their money on munchies every night, after we smoked, and i saved up to get a new record every few weeks.
	♥ 5:22pm Michael 98145: those AI need to be put in their place
	♥ 5:25pm common: kitties
	♥ 5:25pm Michael 98145: [ who knew Irwin was so versatile ?? ]
	5:29pm Listener Robert: Terre T. & Prof. Dum-Dum? I also have in mind a certain pairing of DJs from those I already listed that would be so toxic it would be mean to even mention here. Just review the list & you'll see the oh-oh!
	♥ 5:31pm Michael 98145: time to watch : blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	5:32pm cory: wicked cover
	5:33pm TehBadDr: Mean indeed!
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm Alison Porchnik: I think Irwin and Bethany have the BEST FUNDRAISING CHEMISTRY EVER. They are a dangerous combination during the marathon.
	♥ 5:33pm Passaic River Blues: Poor Lizzie.
	♥ 5:34pm coelacanth∅: fucking hell! i leave the room for 10 minutes and i've missed Haley.
	🎸 ♥ 5:35pm rrg: Archive. Wait an hour. It'll be fine.
	♥ 5:37pm common: great!
	5:38pm northguineahills: Ken sounds so young!
	5:40pm Bethany Ryker: PLEDGE NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T!!!
	5:44pm Nashville Dave: Apologies Irwin for not pledging during this excellent show as I am holding my fire for the Andy soak shortly to come.
	5:44pm Bethany Ryker: PLEDGE NOW IF YOU PLEDGED ALREADY. Add a little extra!!
	♥ 5:50pm Greg from ZONE 5: Matt loves it when people play this on the radio :)
	5:51pm Carmichael: Did Jeff Lynne produce this?
	5:51pm Jeff: He's got nothin' to be embarrassed about.
	5:52pm geezerette: Chipped in. Whew!
	♥ 5:52pm Michael 98145: giving Eric Carmen a run for his money
	5:52pm Carmichael: This sounds like garbage!
	5:52pm geezerette: Guilt assuaged.
	🎸 ♥ 5:53pm rrg: I saw this performance live.
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: - applause -
	6:00pm Jeff: Your chemistry is exothermic!

Irwin's Marathon Premium
The Cass-CD: Artifacts from Irwin's Cassette Era, 1974-1998

I have hundreds of cassettes containing thousands of sonic artifacts. They're stacked forlornly on shelves, but deserve to be played and heard. Here's a sampler of analog sonic debris: WFMU airchecks, bogus commercials, found sounds, montages, music rarities, vintage WFMU station IDs, interview outtakes, school bands, foolishness and fakery. Tape hiss retained.

	3:58pm βrian: @Lewis: As of yesterday Mendota is ice-free. Huge whitecaps today.
	3:58pm Bronwyn Bishop: Irwin, I've told all my friends that you helped inspire the creation of the film School of Rock with your resurrection of the Langley School project, and they're very impressed because that film was a touchstone in all of our lives, for some reason.
	♥ 3:59pm Ike: I'm getting Irwin's premium (via pre-marathon pledge) because cassette weirdness is always irresistible, despite the fact that he's a thuggish mega-capitalist reactionary brute. Fortunately our evil liberal death panels will take care of him soon! SOON!
	3:59pm Lewis: Thanks Brian - the wind is probably a big factor. Hope nobody lost their fish house...
	♥ 4:03pm coelacanth∅: what a voice!
	4:04pm Listener Robert: Cong. Parker introduced the world to Radamananoff.
	♥ 4:08pm coelacanth∅: help! my tv's broken! there's nothing but shit coming out of it!
	4:09pm JakeGould: “Push the circuit breaker.” Paid for by the National Circuit Breaker Council.
	4:10pm Old Dave: Haven't needed a TV since I discovered WFMU
	4:12pm Ralphine: I wouldn't give up TV for anything.
	🎸 ♥ 4:13pm Alison Porchnik: I want to hear Sabu
	4:13pm JakeGould: THE BOSS SOUND!!!
	♥ 4:14pm Irwin: Bass on this Gibbs track: Theremin virtuoso Pamelia Kurstin
	4:15pm Listening Out There: I watched a stream from Lincoln Center of Terry Gibbs's band. Great drummer but a bit of a jerk...
	♥ 4:16pm Irwin: He's an amazing drummer, can't vouch for his charisma. Art Blakey was an incredible drummer -- and he taught many of his sidemen how to use heroin.
	♥ 4:19pm coelacanth∅: Terry or Gerry? (does Terry play drums?)
	♥ 4:20pm coelacanth∅: maybe she's a "virtuosette"? (now ducking)
	4:25pm Lewis: a) we are at heart a blue state; b) we have a strong cohort here (hi Cecile and Aaron).
	4:25pm Bronwyn Bishop: I want Christgau to call me something.
	♥ 4:25pm melinda: He gave it a C? Lame.
	4:26pm βrian: But right next door is Red Wisconsin. Ugh!
	4:27pm Listening Out There: I'm enjoying the Tom Wilson, BTW. Keep 'em comin'...
	4:28pm Lewis: and Brian is an honorary member of the Twin Cities cohort!
	4:30pm JakeGould: Not all of Wisconsin is red.
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm Alison Porchnik: And yet Mike Nichols did wear a hair hat!
	4:32pm TehBadDr: Home! Home is where you wear your hat! Wait, Home! Home is where you wear your hair?
	4:33pm Lewis: how about the 4:33 extended mix!
	4:34pm Listener Robert: Anybody else having trouble getting the bar graph widget to display inline on the playlist pages? I can see it as a page on its own, but not as an inline graphic. MSIE in use here.
	4:34pm berbo: I prefer the book.
	4:34pm Listener Robert: I think that was a COVER of "0:10".
	4:34pm JakeGould: OMG! I just had to hear my co-workers! Stop!
	♥ 4:35pm coelacanth∅: plagiarism! it sounded just like the refrigerator, which was doing it first.
	4:35pm Devin B.: I really liked the part where it was windy and I heard my dogs collar jingle as we ran across a field
	♥ 4:35pm Ike: Not bad, but it's not the same without the background coughing.
	4:35pm Listener Chrispy: Cheers!
	4:37pm Leonardo: I don't think I've heard two people on radio with less chemistry.
	4:37pm Listener Robert: I still wanna know how much you have to surpass the goal by to make the cow tip over & kick its feet ecstatically in the air.
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: Leonardo, you obviously weren't listening a few years back when somebody's bright idea was to match-up djs & co-hosts seemingly randomly. (Stan's show was the most painful, i think)
	♥ 4:42pm Irwin: Thank you, Leonardo, it's very kind of you to say. We appreciate your abundant positivity.
	4:42pm Listener Robert: Who, Leonardo? Nichols & May, or Irwin & Bethany? Lack of "chemistry" (reaction) can be a great gimmick if they work it right.
	4:44pm Listener Robert: We could put together worse if we work at it. Nachum + Kenny G?
	♥ 4:47pm Uncle Michael: Nachum and Kenny G are together at last.
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm rrg: Egad. I never heard a cover of this before.
	♥ 4:48pm coelacanth∅: actually i think the Irwin-Bethany is pretty good. their fundamental differences provide tension but they roll with it quite nicely. - and i like it.
	♥ 4:48pm Ike: Actually Nachum and Kenny G were on together briefly once or twice IIRC and they were fairly funny together.
	4:48pm Listener Robert: Chris T. + Jeff Sarge? Todd + Ilene Trudel?
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm rrg: Differences? What differences?
	4:50pm Old Dave: I remember this Marshall Efron guy... man, I'm old! But his show was funny as hell...
	4:50pm Listening Out There: Static cling is usually fatal...
	4:50pm Listener Robert: Michelle Boule + Irw...wait a minute!
	4:52pm Listener Robert: Laura Cantrell + Pat Duncan?
	4:52pm Listener Chrispy: Me and Fred and Dave and Ted ?
	4:53pm Marc15: Is a free tonsillectomy from Dr. Peckton Irwin's Marathon Grand Prize Premium?
	♥ 4:55pm coelacanth∅: maybe Chris T would tone it down in Jeff's presence. Todd and Irene though! that would be like watching a child repeatedly trying to stick a paper clip into an electrical socket while the other repeatedly almost let's him/her do it.
	♥ 4:55pm Ike: I could tell you several of the worst pairings I've heard, but I'd rather be positive and say that Irwin and Bryce together several years ago was one of the best pairings ever. Really freaking funny.
	4:56pm TDK60: Happy International Women's Day folks. Love the cassettes, of course.
	4:56pm Bronwyn Bishop: Now I'm nervous for my upcoming first-ever marathon shows. I hope y'all like it when I co-host with Irwin and Billy Jam and we don't show up in the annals of "worst pairing ever" lists.
	4:58pm Bronwyn Bishop: GO VOLUNTEERS!!!!!
	4:58pm Listener Chrispy: I like everything you host / co-host Bronwyn :D Thank you!
	4:59pm Listener Robert: The Old Codger + Alan Watts?
	4:59pm Bronwyn Bishop: Thanks Chrispy, I like you!
	5:00pm Bronwyn Bishop: Bethany, I love your show! I love classical too and I'm glad it's on FMU more thanks to you.
	♥ 5:01pm Ike: @BB, I'm confident that you & Billy Jam will be great together. That should be a live wire of energy. Pure audio caffeine. As for Irwin, uh... I'm sure you'll be great. For best results, I advise you to give him hell. ;)
	♥ 5:01pm coelacanth∅: there was a pairing in the early 90s that i remember to this day, because me and my friend were literally falling on the floor laughing - but i don't remember who it was. i thought to record it at the time but i had no blank tape there. i feel like it was Scott Williams but i think he wasn't on yet at that time.
	♥ 5:05pm Ike: @c∅, I believe Scott W. started in... '96 maybe? On overnights. So early 90s wouldn't track. Could it have involved Tom Crowe? He was hilarious.
	5:05pm Listener Robert: Nick the Bard + the guy who did "Thos. Edison's Attic"?
	5:06pm Listener Chrispy: I became a lifer today anyone know when the badge shows up on the right there x_X
	5:07pm Leonardo: I will treble my pledge if they put Irene Trudel together with Toddaphonic Todd.
	5:10pm Listener Robert: Nardwuar + Kevin Nutt!
	♥ 5:10pm coelacanth∅: Ike, that name sounds only very slightly familiar, so probably not. i do know it was evening, maybe 8-9 pm, and it was a male and female, and they were playing with a voice modulator - being very suggestive in their interpretations of carvel ice-cream commercials!
	5:11pm TDK60: Kenny G. & Irwin paired once was truly hilarious. I know: I have it on cassette.
	5:12pm Listener Robert: Dave Emory + Dave The Spazz!
	♥ 5:12pm coelacanth∅: nah - Kevin has a sense of humour; but Nardwuar and Dave the spazz would be a trainwreck, that's for sure.
	5:14pm Bethany Ryker: @BronwynBishop! Yes, we must connect!!! I had heard from Stork :) So glad you are a part of the FMU Family!!
	♥ 5:15pm Michael 98145: - fun for sale -
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm rrg: I love that on marathon shows we revisit favorites.
	5:16pm Bethany Ryker: Irwin - I'm glad that our RED-HOT chemistry is on the DL. That's for after-hours and has no place during the Marathon.
	♥ 5:17pm Irwin: {wink wink, bethany babe}
	5:19pm Listener Robert: Dusty + Morbid? If anyone could "break" Mr. Pigeon, it might've been Morbid.
	♥ 5:19pm coelacanth∅: fun for sale, beauty for sale...that's how i felt as a teenager when my friends would spend their money on munchies every night, after we smoked, and i saved up to get a new record every few weeks.
	♥ 5:22pm Michael 98145: those AI need to be put in their place
	♥ 5:25pm common: kitties
	♥ 5:25pm Michael 98145: [ who knew Irwin was so versatile ?? ]
	5:29pm Listener Robert: Terre T. & Prof. Dum-Dum? I also have in mind a certain pairing of DJs from those I already listed that would be so toxic it would be mean to even mention here. Just review the list & you'll see the oh-oh!
	♥ 5:31pm Michael 98145: time to watch : blogfiles.wfmu.org...
	5:32pm cory: wicked cover
	5:33pm TehBadDr: Mean indeed!
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm Alison Porchnik: I think Irwin and Bethany have the BEST FUNDRAISING CHEMISTRY EVER. They are a dangerous combination during the marathon.
	♥ 5:33pm Passaic River Blues: Poor Lizzie.
	♥ 5:34pm coelacanth∅: fucking hell! i leave the room for 10 minutes and i've missed Haley.
	🎸 ♥ 5:35pm rrg: Archive. Wait an hour. It'll be fine.
	♥ 5:37pm common: great!
	5:38pm northguineahills: Ken sounds so young!
	5:40pm Bethany Ryker: PLEDGE NOW IF YOU HAVEN'T!!!
	5:44pm Nashville Dave: Apologies Irwin for not pledging during this excellent show as I am holding my fire for the Andy soak shortly to come.
	5:44pm Bethany Ryker: PLEDGE NOW IF YOU PLEDGED ALREADY. Add a little extra!!
	♥ 5:50pm Greg from ZONE 5: Matt loves it when people play this on the radio :)
	5:51pm Carmichael: Did Jeff Lynne produce this?
	5:51pm Jeff: He's got nothin' to be embarrassed about.
	5:52pm geezerette: Chipped in. Whew!
	♥ 5:52pm Michael 98145: giving Eric Carmen a run for his money
	5:52pm Carmichael: This sounds like garbage!
	5:52pm geezerette: Guilt assuaged.
	🎸 ♥ 5:53pm rrg: I saw this performance live.
	♥ 5:54pm Michael 98145: - applause -
	6:00pm Jeff: Your chemistry is exothermic!
