WFMU: Honky Tonk Radio Girl with Becky: Playlist from October 17, 2018

Listener comments!
	8:04pm ultradamno: Singles Going Steady or business as usual for this show
	8:07pm Anthony: Is this a fundraiser
	8:08pm Anthony: I wish this show was more than one hour. Best show on WFMU
	8:09pm Becky: @Anthony Thank you! Indeed, if you click that little pledge bar over there, you can make sure this show is on the radio for ever and ever (unless I muck it up)!
	8:14pm yippie: I especially like tontines style
	8:17pm Smokestack: Ain't no honkytonks out on the open range
	8:17pm Ken in Tucson: Howdy from way out west! Much obliged, ma'am. P.S. Most trucker songs are Western songs, IMO.
	8:18pm Becky: @Ken Agreed! If you see a cactus, it's probably Western. Even if you drive by it.
	8:19pm Anthony: This show reminds me of WSM only hipper. This isn't Taylor Swift's country music. Is she even considered country anymore? Both kinds of music, Country and Western!
	8:20pm Anthony: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS-zEH8YmiM
	8:24pm JakeGould: The dude abides.
	8:27pm yippie: I've seen a few people grow a cactus or 2 in their nyc apartments
	8:28pm Ken in Tucson: @yippie That is just wrong.
	8:29pm JakeGould: I have succulents in my Brooklyn apartment and they are doing fine don’t @ me.
	8:30pm Will: Feels good to have discogs nearby to further check out these nuggets.
	8:30pm ?: Lorne Green?
	8:31pm Becky: @Will I've had trouble finding them all on Discogs!
	8:31pm JakeGould: Oh Ringo… We knew by the tone his life was not long.
	8:32pm ALiteralWizard: This sounds like it could be about the actual Johnny ringo
	8:33pm ALiteralWizard: One google later confirms that it is
	8:33pm Anthony: Becky where do find all of these? Are they all singles or are some of them on comps?
	8:34pm Becky: @Anthony: Some of them might be on comps! I found them all on 45s.
	8:34pm Glennz_Cat: I could have sworn Lorne Green did a version of "Ringo"
	8:34pm Becky: @Glennz_Cat He did! I to explain.
	8:35pm JakeGould: OMFG SPAGHETTI CAT IS BACK!
	8:35pm Glennz_Cat: Ohhh! ...Thanks!
	8:35pm Glennz_Cat: Ha!
	8:42pm yippie: ho yeah I had to square dance in nj public schools
	8:42pm Glennz_Cat: I wish you had that record we had to square dance to back in the 4th grade
	8:43pm ALiteralWizard: I have this on a mix cassette called "speeding ticket"
	8:43pm Becky: Oh god, Glennz, I might have a seizure.
	8:43pm JakeGould: Sorry but no square dancing in Brooklyn public schools in the 1970s.
	8:43pm Glennz_Cat: That's how I got the Cooties
	8:43pm Becky: I was square dancing in NJ well into the 90s.
	8:44pm JakeGould: Look at these covers! www.wagonwheelrecords.net...
	8:45pm JakeGould: “Square dancing is a fun way to get kids up and moving about. This traditional dance builds skills for memorization, coordination, team-building and self-esteem.”
	8:45pm J&E in Ithaca NY: Grew up in North Jersey , Square dance class was done in the gym; on days when the record player wasn’t working they’d roll out an old army parachute and everybody would hold the outside of the chute, and we’d toss one kid skyward.
	8:47pm yippie: they even had square dancing down south in Atlantic City
	8:47pm JakeGould: @J&E: Now that sounds like a well thought out plan of activities for kids.
	8:48pm ALiteralWizard: A friend of mine years ago kept inviting me to a local square dancing thing. Is it worth giving it a go?
	8:48pm AL: In NJ we had mother-son and father-daughter square dances.
	8:48pm yippie: we only had it with other classmates and a couple teachers
	8:48pm JakeGould: “El Pizza” is amazing!
	8:49pm JakeGould: In Brooklyn we just figured out new ways to play tag in the schoolyard until someone was injured. Oh well!
	8:49pm Ochre Ogre: Yep, I remember the Ringo version by Lorne Greene. Thought that sounded a little different.
	8:50pm KidProJoe: Square danced in Chicago public school in the 80s/90s. We also warmed up with the Robert Preston Chicken Fat record.
	8:50pm Becky: @KidProJoe I own that 45!!
	8:51pm KidProJoe: Hearing that would send shivers down my spine! Then I'd do some push ups.
	8:55pm Becky: @KidProJoe I've been thinking of doing an hour of some of the absolute weirdest records I own - so maybe stay tuned next week!
	8:56pm Johnzon: howdy cowpokes... great show today!
	8:58pm KidProJoe: I'm on board with that for sure
	8:59pm JakeGould: This was quite a good show for a show that has many good shows.
