	9:02pm JakeGould: “Ya like a sponge cake?”
	9:02pm medson: Evening folks
	9:06pm TDK60: Great rock and roll tune that, D. Edmunds.
	9:07pm JakeGould: This sounds cool, but “Beat My Drums” kinda sounds like “Rock rock rock… Rock and rock… Rock rock rock rock…”
	9:11pm medson: This sounds so good
	9:18pm Stevel: Take me away, efd!!
	9:19pm Zetti: cool.
	9:20pm Stevel: Guessing Cozy would be a sweaty-er live. show than many.
	9:23pm efd: That is a good guess, Stevel!
	9:23pm fleep: Rock this house inside out!
	9:23pm efd: hey everyone, thanks for tuning in tonight!
	9:24pm medson: I needed these tunes after the day I had at work : )
	9:26pm Ben London: You got any DL Byron floating around up there?
	9:34pm Stevel: efd sees all.
	9:36pm KidProJoe: Hello fellow listeners
	9:41pm john: Hey Evan! Always a good time for Rattlesnakes! PS Both the big box sets to date are aces.
	9:41pm Eddy in Australia: Hi Evan and all. Loving this Salad Boys track - heard it on Joe B's show the other day, too. Saw the band a few times late last year and they were great.
	9:42pm Stevel: I will definitely see Lloyd Cole next opportunity. Great performer. Thanks to his dj stint on Fed's show a couple years back, I saw him solo with guitar. Heard he shifted to keyboard.
	9:44pm efd: it's still crazy to me that Lloyd Cole was on my show.
	9:45pm efd: Hey Eddy! I've brought that Salad Boys LP into the studio with me for the past few weeks, made a point of getting to it early this week!
	9:45pm Stevel: Hey, Eddy! How's stuff over there?
	9:49pm Eddy in Australia: @Stevel: All good here. Protomartyr have been in town (two excellent shows), and it's still warm so my moon and stars watermelons are growing well!
	9:52pm efd: @Ben, if you're still out there: No D.L. Byron here tonight, but I believe there is some at home. Maybe next week?
	9:52pm Stevel: Summer sounds good to me, although winter has been very in and out this season. 70 f yesterday. 35 f today. Unusual patterns.
	9:53pm x.: wow, better than Siouxie? dude
	9:58pm efd: who said it was better than Siouxsie?
	9:58pm Eddy in Australia: @Stevel: 70 f in February? What global warming?!
	10:00pm x.: @efd me!!! that was great!
	10:02pm efd: OH, got it! I thought you were being critical - my mistake, sorry.
	10:03pm Eddy in Australia: @EFD: Is that a new/different intro to TMS?
	10:05pm Jeff Moore: This almost sounds like The Jazz Butcher singing about The Monochrome Set. Which would be pretty fun, really.
	10:06pm pp: listening to the intro, said to myself that's the monochrome set. I presumed correct.
	10:06pm efd: looks to be the original album version of that song...?
	10:07pm efd: it's from this new 6-CD collection of Monochrome Set stuff
	10:08pm Eddy in Australia: I don't recall it being so long and Burundi-sounding. Maybe the single version is different?
	10:09pm efd: I think that's the case! It caught me off guard as well.
	10:09pm efd: (I see what you did there, pp)
	10:17pm fleep: Now I see why you all transfer to the boxcar studio this early - shakedown cruise.
	10:25pm efd: @fleep that is exactly right.
	10:36pm Kat in Chicago: oh hell yes
	10:37pm Slick Goldtooth: listening to this just reminded me King Tuff's back making stuff
	10:38pm efd: ballsy move to cover this song but Ty Segall totally pulls it off
	10:38pm pp: do you think the original of this was the definition of funk?
	10:38pm Kat in Chicago: agreed on both counts EFD
	10:39pm Parq: Whoa, big evening for covers of songs from back in the day. This, and you played that Christine cover, and I was listening before to an Uncle Michael archive with Sisters of Mercy covering Emma.
	10:39pm jmd: This is as rock-solid cover of any song as there ever will be. Perfect.
	10:40pm Kat in Chicago: Yeah I'm mad that I missed Christine, gonna hit that archive tomorrow
	10:47pm 3500: was it a password in the ancient days?...i'm not a aut...i'm a semi retarded stupid fuck and need enlightenment on such a regime of strick discipline
	10:49pm Fuzzy: I want a new autumn (fall)
	10:50pm efd: ah, thank you Fuzzy!
	10:50pm Fuzzy: or more likely "I wish it was fall again"
	10:51pm efd: @3500 I have no idea what you're talking about, and I'm going to remove your first comment because I don't want that word on my playlist.
	10:51pm Fuzzy: De nada, efd!
	10:51pm Frank Sinatra: fly me to the moon ...let me play amoungstamongst the stars...i need to play in Jupiter and mars
	10:53pm hair 1968: we wus cutting edge

	11:28pm Kat in Chicago: Realplayer, oh dear. I remember emailing Station Manager Ken about some icky things that Realplayer did to my (eMachines with 2G HD, lol!) computer and being super impressed with his thoughtful and helpful response.
	11:32pm Andrew S: haha yeah it wasnt easy back then :)
	11:33pm Andrew S: well i mean it was state of the art at the time but not compared to now
	11:33pm yazoo street scandal: 40 days of rain after that the potion got in my brain...had to take my thosand dollar I phone and throw it in the river...then the voices stopped suggesting things...the wonderful age of technology
	11:38pm Andrew S: no canadiana tonight but this reminds me of how gary numan kinda took nash the slash under his wing and touted him a bit. there are some good youtube videos with numan and nash the slash and iggy pop if they are still up
	11:47pm trump: fuck you my wall will be greater then China's

	11:52pm A squirrell: if you feed me I'll just provide more of my retarded content....i'm hungry for more insane rock & roll
	11:53pm Andrew S: the revisit may or not be rewarding, its pretty hit and miss but he had his moments and he had the bandage thing going. Gary Numan really took a shine to him, and there is a neat interview with him and iggy if its still out there. he didnt say much, iggy much more photogenic
