	12:08pm Tony Coulter: Hola, coelacanth∅ and JtotheK! Glad everyone is showing up -- wasn't sure if anyone would today. Strangely, I don't think I've ever done a show on Christmas Day, so I wasn't sure what to expect.

	12:21pm Tony Coulter: Greetings, Sem!
	12:24pm Tony Coulter: "Happy Buddhist Thing"
	12:34pm Doug Schulkind: Happy War on Christmas, everyone!!
	12:35pm Tony Coulter: Doug! Great googly greetings!
	12:42pm Franco Twinkie: This is a real holiday palate cleanser.
	12:43pm coelacanth∅: huh, early haymaker. i have an album of theirs i bought via bandcamp; i wonder if it was recorded back in the 90s
	12:46pm coelacanth∅: (oh they reformed in 2011)
	12:47pm Tony Coulter: Interesting. All I've heard from them is the track on this tape.
	12:51pm coelacanth∅: they seem to have removed whatever was on bandcamp except one release from 2014.
	12:52pm coelacanth∅: (or i'm confused and i didn't get it from bandcamp!)
	12:57pm Tony Coulter: I'm guessing this is more Goddess Irena now, but it doesn't say, so...
	1:07pm Michael 98145: cheers, y'all ♫
	1:08pm chresti: @Doug: This is what happens when kids find out there aint no Santa Claus!
	1:08pm Tony Coulter: Hiya, Michael 98145!
	1:09pm coelacanth∅: Mommy and Daddy are liars.
	1:10pm Sem: Say it ain't so, coel.
	1:10pm coelacanth∅: greetings Michael!
	1:11pm Michael 98145: howdy, friends. it's almost Spring!
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: Sem, i found the bicycle in the garage. i knew it! i looked for it!
	1:13pm Sem: :-D!
	1:14pm chresti: HA coel!
	1:14pm coelacanth∅: and i bet there's no easter bunny either. they probably shouldn't be trusted to ever be telling the truth!
	1:18pm glenn: merry hissmas.
	1:18pm chresti: Parents like to get the kids cranked up and will tell them anything to achieve that result.
	1:18pm Tony Coulter: Hairy Hissmass, Glenn!
	1:19pm glenn: for what it's worth, god on twitter has 5.5 million followers. god only follows one person. any guesses?
	1:21pm glenn: and i bring it up because - twitter.com...
	1:22pm coelacanth∅: chresti it's entertainment!
	1:23pm Tony Coulter: @ Glenn: Maybe Oprah? Because God is hoping to get the Bible added to Oprah's book club?
	1:23pm glenn: twitter.com...
	1:23pm Franco Twinkie: Yes, my mother was a liar. And now she is senile. Yesterday when I was at her house she said "I want a bigger Christmas tree! Go and find one laying on the ground somewhere" She wanted me to steal one from a closed Christmas tree lot.
	1:23pm glenn: nope. god follows justin bieber.
	1:24pm Tony Coulter: Aha!
	1:24pm chresti: coel-Right! My dad loved scaring children for entertainment.
	1:25pm Michael 98145: @glenn, whoa. Sarah sure spread the cheer, didn't she ??
	1:26pm glenn: she's a despicable twatburger.
	1:27pm Michael 98145: :)
	1:28pm chresti: Hahaha Franco!
	1:30pm coelacanth∅: those threads are pretty hilarious!
	1:32pm coelacanth∅: glenn @1.23 justin beaver better watch his back!
	1:33pm glenn: he needs a good smiting.
	1:36pm Michael 98145: thanks for revealing all this music on this day
	1:38pm Tony Coulter: You're welcome, Michael!
	1:40pm Michael 98145: Jouez, hautbois, resonnez, musettes !
	1:47pm chresti: What Michael 98145 said...
	1:49pm chresti: At first, I thought I was hearing Bryan Ferry @Mark Lane
	1:50pm Tony Coulter: Had the same thought!
	1:54pm JOY TRANSMISSION: Hi Tony, you know a couple of years ago you were discussing the possibility of having a pre famous stadium rock band show. You know when T.REX were Tyranessaurous rex and REM your just a fart in their dads Christmas pudding. Well I have just found out that Cherry Red are releasing the first 7 Reo Speedwagon albums 1971-77 in a 7 cd boxset. Apparently they were a shit hot blues rock band before becoming (in)famous in 1981. Good news then1
	1:56pm glenn: even typing reo speedwagon gives me agita.
	1:57pm coelacanth∅: hahaha
	1:58pm Tony Coulter: Hey, JOY TRANSMISSION! I've definitely heard some early REO Speedwagon that wasn't so bad. I have a few of their records in my basement.
	1:59pm Listener Bob in PGH: @glenn: I was guessing the only one god follows on twitter was satan. Justin Bieber is much much worse!
	2:01pm Tony Coulter: And ... he's back....
	2:02pm coelacanth∅: the only thing i knew of reo speedwagon for years was a song "157 riverside avenue" on my brother's "the music people" compilation and i loved that song. i was a child, and it boogied. i listened to it a couple years ago and, well, the magic is gone.....but if that's a transitional point i could see how earlier stuff might be good.
	2:02pm Guido from Cologne: Hi Tony! Thaks 4 the 80ies flashbacks! REO were among the "hot secret tipps" among Cologne Radio station editors back in the late 70ies. "they deserve more fame".
	2:03pm coelacanth∅: the same Bryan Ferry, er, Mark Lane song on both sides?
	2:03pm Tony Coulter: Hi there, Guido!
	2:04pm Tony Coulter: @ coelacanth∅: This is a comp drawing from three tapes -- one of which I played just before this ... so there will be some repetition. Which is good, because that's how hits are made.
	2:07pm coelacanth∅: oh, right. confused again.
	2:08pm glenn: god on twitter is pretty funny.
	2:09pm Guido from Cologne: ... this track reminds me that the Residents obviously obviously were obsessed by Xmass themes.
	2:10pm chresti: Haha Tony!
	2:10pm Tony Coulter: @ Guido from Cologne: Yes ... and their "Santa Dog" is my all-time favorite Christmas tune
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: -what was that post something like "twitter is more direct than praying"!
	2:13pm Tony Coulter: This A.T.R.O.X. would pair well with "She's a Sunshine Girl"
	2:14pm Tony Coulter: er, I mean with Faust's "It's a Rainy Day (Sunshine Girl)"
	2:24pm chresti: Yay! Legendary Pink Dots!
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: Plus, Edward Ka-Spel is coming up later on this side
	2:29pm chresti: When you said Sunshine Girl, I thought of Golden Boy, by Severed Heads. They have a "Merry Christmas Donald", I noticed, while perusing Discogs.
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: Sade Claus is back in town
	2:31pm Michael 98145: always loved those Dots
	2:37pm Franco Twinkie: I know nothing of this REO Speedwagon of which you speak. However, i will say this: A few years ago Chresti were at a New Years Eve party in San Francisco. There were some insufferable Friscoids mincing about expressing their parochial views about whatever. The host, who is our friend put on The Residents, and one denizen of the Haight teetered on her high heels and exclaimed " Whaat iss thiiis sssshhit!?! Puut on sommme REO SPEEDWAGON!!!
	2:41pm Michael 98145: :)
	2:43pm chresti: It was Renaldo and the Loaf, still...
	2:45pm glenn: REsidents. REo. i can see the confusion.
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: hahaha Franco!
	2:49pm chresti: We're plugged in 'til we take the tamales to Franco's mom's house Thanks Tony!
	2:53pm chresti: I think after she commandeered the music selection, a bunch of folks went down to the basement to smoke some pot.
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: i just found out the supper at the pub starts at 3. i thought it was an evening thing and now i'm disappointed. i'm not going there 'till at least 6, the food will probably be gone. oh well.
	2:55pm glenn: and anyway, wouldn't a true denizen of the haight be all "put on some dead, maaannnnn"?
	2:56pm JtotheK: Enjoyed the tunes - thanks Tony! Cheers everyone.
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: but was ir "157 riverside avenue speedwagon" or was it the insufferable 80s stuff (which of course was the break-through stuff)?
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, and happy new year, everybody! See you in 2019!
	2:58pm Sem: thisobscuredesireforbeauty.tumblr.com... Thank you, Mr. Tony, for this afternoon of hisstoric tape. See you, and all, again next time, shpould the Fates allow.
	2:59pm Franco Twinkie: Glenn, she started with her Dead bona fides, but the drunker she got...
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony! Happy Buddhist Thing!
	3:00pm chresti: The insufferable 80s wine bar/cruise ship stuff

	2:02pm coelacanth∅: the only thing i knew of reo speedwagon for years was a song "157 riverside avenue" on my brother's "the music people" compilation and i loved that song. i was a child, and it boogied. i listened to it a couple years ago and, well, the magic is gone.....but if that's a transitional point i could see how earlier stuff might be good.
	2:02pm Guido from Cologne: Hi Tony! Thaks 4 the 80ies flashbacks! REO were among the "hot secret tipps" among Cologne Radio station editors back in the late 70ies. "they deserve more fame".
	2:03pm coelacanth∅: the same Bryan Ferry, er, Mark Lane song on both sides?
	2:03pm Tony Coulter: Hi there, Guido!
	2:04pm Tony Coulter: @ coelacanth∅: This is a comp drawing from three tapes -- one of which I played just before this ... so there will be some repetition. Which is good, because that's how hits are made.
	2:07pm coelacanth∅: oh, right. confused again.
	2:08pm glenn: god on twitter is pretty funny.
	2:09pm Guido from Cologne: ... this track reminds me that the Residents obviously obviously were obsessed by Xmass themes.
	2:10pm chresti: Haha Tony!
	2:10pm Tony Coulter: @ Guido from Cologne: Yes ... and their "Santa Dog" is my all-time favorite Christmas tune
	2:12pm coelacanth∅: -what was that post something like "twitter is more direct than praying"!
	2:13pm Tony Coulter: This A.T.R.O.X. would pair well with "She's a Sunshine Girl"
	2:14pm Tony Coulter: er, I mean with Faust's "It's a Rainy Day (Sunshine Girl)"
	2:24pm chresti: Yay! Legendary Pink Dots!
	2:26pm Tony Coulter: Plus, Edward Ka-Spel is coming up later on this side
	2:29pm chresti: When you said Sunshine Girl, I thought of Golden Boy, by Severed Heads. They have a "Merry Christmas Donald", I noticed, while perusing Discogs.
	2:31pm Tony Coulter: Sade Claus is back in town
	2:31pm Michael 98145: always loved those Dots
	2:37pm Franco Twinkie: I know nothing of this REO Speedwagon of which you speak. However, i will say this: A few years ago Chresti were at a New Years Eve party in San Francisco. There were some insufferable Friscoids mincing about expressing their parochial views about whatever. The host, who is our friend put on The Residents, and one denizen of the Haight teetered on her high heels and exclaimed " Whaat iss thiiis sssshhit!?! Puut on sommme REO SPEEDWAGON!!!
	2:41pm Michael 98145: :)
	2:43pm chresti: It was Renaldo and the Loaf, still...
	2:45pm glenn: REsidents. REo. i can see the confusion.
	2:49pm coelacanth∅: hahaha Franco!
	2:49pm chresti: We're plugged in 'til we take the tamales to Franco's mom's house Thanks Tony!
	2:53pm chresti: I think after she commandeered the music selection, a bunch of folks went down to the basement to smoke some pot.
	2:53pm coelacanth∅: i just found out the supper at the pub starts at 3. i thought it was an evening thing and now i'm disappointed. i'm not going there 'till at least 6, the food will probably be gone. oh well.
	2:55pm glenn: and anyway, wouldn't a true denizen of the haight be all "put on some dead, maaannnnn"?
	2:56pm JtotheK: Enjoyed the tunes - thanks Tony! Cheers everyone.
	2:56pm coelacanth∅: but was ir "157 riverside avenue speedwagon" or was it the insufferable 80s stuff (which of course was the break-through stuff)?
	2:58pm Tony Coulter: Thanks, and happy new year, everybody! See you in 2019!
	2:58pm Sem: thisobscuredesireforbeauty.tumblr.com... Thank you, Mr. Tony, for this afternoon of hisstoric tape. See you, and all, again next time, shpould the Fates allow.
	2:59pm Franco Twinkie: Glenn, she started with her Dead bona fides, but the drunker she got...
	3:00pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Tony! Happy Buddhist Thing!
	3:00pm chresti: The insufferable 80s wine bar/cruise ship stuff
