	🎸 ♥ 3:12pm Carmichael: Hey fellow babies!
	🎸 ♥ 3:16pm Barney Grubbs: I bought the rerelease of this Conrad/Faust LP a few years ago and as I was listening to it for the first time started reading about Tony Conrad on wikipedia only to learn that he had died that very day.
	♥ 3:17pm TDK60: The Antique Phonograph Show was friggin' great.
	♥ 3:18pm steveo: Here is Mac's playlist page www.wfmu.org...
	3:20pm yippie: i miss hearing MAC on the air but maybe this podcast thing is a better fit for this chapter of WFMU
	3:21pm yippie: did you listen to do the raccoon by billy murray and his blue babies
	♥ 3:23pm slugluv1313: hi Fabio! hi Mac! FLUFFY RUFFLES!!! yes, i miss Mac's show too -- will definitely check out the podcast :)
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm Ken From Hyde Park: When Snake Plisskin pushes that button, Mac's technology will leap into the forefront.
	♥ 3:23pm TDK60: Fabio plays all the music that has failed failed failed. We're losers here and only the most special failures congregate. Send $$ now!
	♥ 3:23pm Michael 98145: { this station has the -most amazing- archive of any station anywhere }
	♥ 3:24pm TDK60: ...alright gotta leave, really, now...
	♥ 3:24pm Michael 98145: has power been restored to the transmitter ? streaming just fine ...
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm chresti: See ya TDK60
	3:26pm Chi Bill: WFMU rocks! I listen M-F 7a-4p CT and only have to tune out on occasion, no offense to Bryce but... however I do like the piece i heard on his show with the bouy bells ringing gently. It's best to give it ALL a listen. Pledge fellow glisteners!
	♥ 3:26pm βrian: I'm converting all my vinyl to cassette tape.
	3:28pm John from Florham Park: @chi bill love your WXRT pretty good station
	♥ 3:29pm coelacanth∅: Barney Grubbs @3.16 that's crazy! (and sad) ...i had something kind of similar happen with David S Ware.
	♥ 3:30pm coelacanth∅: Hi Fabio, Mac, sundry failures
	3:32pm Chi Bill: Hey John, yeah XRT is ok, there's a pretty good college station on the low end of the dial but I can never receive it. Guess I gotta start streaming even local stations.
	♥ 3:32pm coelacanth∅: Chi Bill i Love Bryce! but i Love Uncle Michael too (same time, drummer stream) -fortunately they're so different than each-other i can easily choose based on my mood.
	3:34pm John from Florham Park: @chil bill ever listen to CHIRP they play some very good stuff
	3:38pm Chi Bill: I'll have to check out Chirp. And I'll give Bryce a chance. FMU and listeners have been enlightening and inspiring for me. Happy almost Friday!
	3:39pm John from Florham Park: @chi bill yes the people on the chat boards are great no real trolling people on here
	3:41pm John from Florham Park: &chi bill there is also this program called sophisticated boom boom on Friday’s at 3 and the DJ plays sone great stuff
	♥ 3:41pm coelacanth∅: i used to listen to David's show regularly. another one i miss.
	♥ 3:43pm Kat in Chicago: Ed Anger!
	♥ 3:43pm Michael 98145: i enjoy seeing the vapers going by like steam engines ...
	♥ 3:44pm joe: The Weekly World News had Ed Anger
	♥ 3:44pm βrian: No sugar, no cream. I want my coffee to be coffee.
	♥ 3:46pm tim from champaign: You can do a Mouse of Today pledge by foregoing buying coffee 10 days out of the month.
	♥ 3:46pm Ike: Ouch there @Mac, you're pronouncing Fabio's name so painfully! Isn't it more of a "ahhh" like in "amen", not an AEEEEH like "angle" or "clank"?
	♥ 3:46pm Kat in Chicago: Oh, that's right, Weekly World News.
	3:47pm Fredericks: Mac is saying that the purpose of WFMU is to offend Clay Pigeon? I should pledge more.
	♥ 3:47pm coelacanth∅: John there are occasional trolls though. there was one for a while up till a few weeks ago. 'changed his moniker every few days but usually based on his anal fixation! also a racist and (not surprisingly) a trump cheerleader. i guess he (?) got banned - or bored. i don't know why it took so long to get rid of him. i had no trouble recognising it when it was him.
	3:51pm John from Florham Park: @coel I think I remember, I ignored him
	3:51pm McGreivey: I wish I could convert all my cassette tape to vinyl.
	♥ 3:51pm chris: without trolls, there would be no marbles in a blender T from Bryce. so, there's that.
	3:52pm V Priceless: heya fish! Any claw! sightings?
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm The Oscar: There used to be a hardware store in my neighborhood that sold Edison cylinders for $5 (circa mid-late 2000s). I regret never picking one up (despite having no conceivable way to play them).
	♥ 3:54pm slugluv1313: re-issue of old ROIR tape? if i remember correctly, some of the live recordings were recorded at CBGB's
	♥ 3:54pm tim from champaign: I've started buying more cassettes. I still listen to music on physical media (other than streaming FMU). I'm getting priced out of vinyl but cassettes are still in my affordability range.
	♥ 3:54pm coelacanth∅: chris also, if you didn't hear the beginning of Irwin's show yesterday -he read a letter to the station from a non-fan. pretty entertaining!
	🎸 ♥ 3:55pm chresti: I suspect that trolls are usually around 12 years old
	3:55pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: my band just released our first album on vinyl. I just figured if you give people CDs or even tapes, they'll just chuck them on a pile when they get home and never listen. A record is different.
	♥ 3:56pm coelacanth∅: hey Veep! no. and i was just thinking about her yesterday. i miss that grrrl.
	♥ 3:56pm chris: thanks, coel. i missed it. i'll listen to the archive. :)
	3:56pm ?: QUIERO HUMILLAR: I WANT TO HUMILIATE
	♥ 3:57pm Ike: @chris, agreed, taking that troll's attempt at an insult and turning it into a positive was awesome. And Bryce is so nice that he's won over some trolls. It's pretty great. This wasn't from the playlist comments but I also really love when someone said that FMU played too much of "a slowed down echo of two dumpsters crashing into each other for 15 minutes".
	♥ 3:57pm joe: @slugluv1313 Two of the tracks were recorded at CBGB on the ROIR cassette. Grabbed it to look at it when it started playing.
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Just checked for the 90.1 signal. It's not back yet.
	3:58pm el_musgo: and yes terrible pronunciation....
	3:58pm Tulip: I love this bed music and i love you guyssss!
	♥ 3:58pm tim from champaign: What's your band, DC Pat? vinyl is still my preferred way to listen and my favorite format.
	3:58pm Tulip: I loved Mac's pronunciation. I love cemetaries! I wanna go on the tour!!!!
	♥ 3:59pm chris: Ike, i'd love to hear that, too! :)
	4:00pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: @tim Clown Foundation. clownfoundation.com. If you like it, I'll send you a record. I've been shipping them all over the place.
	♥ 4:00pm joe: Esquivel died Jan 3 2002
	♥ 4:02pm coelacanth∅: also, check out what i assume is a comment board post from a (former, i think) listener at the bottom of Thomas Storck's playlist page (formerly called "dangerous for the brain") wfmu.org... ...i love the classics.
	♥ 4:02pm tim from champaign: Thanks DC Pat! I'm always up for hearing something new.
	♥ 4:03pm coelacanth∅: ...actually the 3rd post is even better, because it's so ludicrous.
	4:03pm cory@work: woot!
	4:04pm Tulip: Fabs, your so demanding!
	♥ 4:04pm chris: yes :)
	4:05pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: @Tim: ok, I sent a msg via WFMU, respond with your address and I'll send you a rekkid.
	♥ 4:06pm Jeff Moore: CDs spin between 200 and 500 RPM, depending on where they're reading from on the disc between the inside and outside "grooves".
	♥ 4:06pm βrian: Ak-mak crackers are really good.
	♥ 4:07pm Jeff Moore: Constant linear velocity. Rekkids spin at a constant ANGULAR velocity.
	♥ 4:08pm slugluv1313: @ joe -- ah! thanks! (would have done the same, except i have no idea where my copy is! stored away as, alas, no cassette player right now)
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I missed thee actualle McLuhead.
	♥ 4:09pm joe: @slugluv1313 not a big fan of cassettes but I have over the last few years taken to collecting the ROIR stuff when I can find it at reasonable prices. 1/2 Alive and MC's Babes In Arms are two I have had for many many years.
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Gotta Keep Movin' joe.
	🎸 ♥ 4:10pm The Oscar: Actual conversation with a college kid at the record store I worked at (c. 2016): KID: How much do Beatles tracksets cost? ME: (unsure what he said) Beatles...? KID: Oh, the rock band. ME: Right. Um... I'm sorry, what are you asking? KID: You know, the really big CDs. ME: ...You mean records? KID: Yeah!
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wow. The video game RockBand is discussed among Beatletards cause they have isolated tracks of instruments & talk not easily found elsewhere...
	4:12pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: "the really big CDs" . That is hilarious.
	♥ 4:13pm slugluv1313: @ joe -- do not have a huge cassette collection myself, but i have saved many over the years -- the ROIR tapes i do have are from when they were still a "new" label (oooo i feel "old"!)
	4:14pm yippie: is this a big hole 45 or a little hole 45?
	4:15pm Tulip: I don't actually believe the building is being worked on. I think it is a big scam.
	♥ 4:15pm joe: @yippie be happy you are getting the hole 45 ok :)
	4:16pm yippie: @joe you can keep the hole i just want the revolutions
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Deconstruct the building construction...it's an experiment in Music Concrete...
	♥ 4:19pm tim from champaign: Hey DC Pat, I sent you my email address. For some reason I'm having difficulty responding to your contact request.
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: There might be new concrete: www.flickr.com...
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: Construction of the Fables of the Construction...
	♥ 4:22pm coelacanth∅: T.Oscar "tracksets"! "big cds"!!
	4:22pm yippie: walla walla is the west coast new york new york
	♥ 4:23pm Stashu: Yo-yo.
	4:23pm Miss Gretchen: I somehow knew Mac would read that, and it makes me so happy that you all did not know that Bible reference!
	♥ 4:23pm donpappy: Widow's mite: a small contribution given by a person who has very little (Collins English Dictionary)
	🎸 ♥ 4:23pm Carmichael: My brother used to live in Snowqualmie.
	🎸 ♥ 4:24pm dale: walla walla sounds like a laugh in punchline - like beautiful downtown burbank.
	🎸 ♥ 4:25pm dale: this is a good pairing - both deejays deal with a lot of ambient noise.
	🎸 ♥ 4:26pm chresti: Burning Spear has a song titled Walla walla
	🎸 ♥ 4:26pm Carmichael: I used to own a walla-walla pedal.
	🎸 ♥ 4:27pm chresti: Hey Big Spender!
	4:28pm Tulip: SHAFT!
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm dale: i'd be too drunk to try to get some on a cruise.
	4:31pm Tulip: I wanna go on that durn trip. I think I am going to off myself if I can't go.... :>(
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bullwinkle has a red hat & says Build the WallaWalla.
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm dale: make frostbite falls great again.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Carmichael: Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
	♥ 4:34pm coelacanth∅: - and they bring their own cylinders and shellacs
	🎸 ♥ 4:35pm dale: fanmail from some flounder?
	♥ 4:35pm coelacanth∅: vinyl is a boutique item now.
	♥ 4:37pm coelacanth∅: it's not a "backslash"!
	🎸 ♥ 4:38pm chresti: cassettes are a thing now, too
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: they are,chresti. very fashionable. they're usually reasonably priced though.
	4:39pm Tulip: I'm listening right now.
	🎸 ♥ 4:40pm chresti: New tape players are kind of pricey though
	♥ 4:40pm TDK60: back again.
	4:41pm johanne kristine: for once listening live - usually i'm asleep by now. loads of love and also some kind of money (once I get back to my computer). phones. smartphones. pfff. technology. but you are appreciated here in sweden. thanks!
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: wow, can you even get a new player? i just find old ones in decent shape.
	♥ 4:41pm TDK60: ..tapes are a thing again? Why didn't y'all tell me?
	🎸 ♥ 4:41pm dale: play some hole fabio!
	♥ 4:42pm coelacanth∅: TDK60s are fashionable again.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm dale: i heard swans on the station and was like 'holy crap - how have i not heard this?' my wife went to the attic and brought her swans cd's down. she was ahead of the curve.
	4:43pm seth from muddy creek: Commercial success ain’t my yardstick tho. Lots of great artists played here that are just out there.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm chresti: A growing industry in refurbishing old cassette players/boomboxes
	♥ 4:44pm coelacanth∅: "moooog"? Fabio i'm shocked!
	🎸 ♥ 4:45pm chresti: I want that...
	♥ 4:45pm TDK60: ..I'm so behind the next thing. Like a guy with a Mohawk in 1990.
	4:45pm johanne kristine: my dad gave me a swans cd for my 14th birthday. he hated it. he gave me a vinyl when I turned 32 and bought the same album for himself. proud of my dad.
	♥ 4:46pm Ike: Sorry, I prefer TDK90s. But don't worry, TDK60. You're just fine the way you are. Don't try those shady elixirs that promise to make you longer.
	🎸 ♥ 4:47pm Carmichael: TDK, one day you'll be a 90, then you'll be ultra-cool.
	4:47pm Listener Robert: Had 90.1 on in the car, radio left on at home, no signal in any of that interval since it'd gone down.
	🎸 ♥ 4:47pm chresti: A friend that has a record store in Pasadena, said a young guy came in, and asked if he had vinyls
	4:48pm P-90: Ciao Fabio, MAC, and amici!
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm dale: chresti - i found a jvc rc-550 'el diablo' free in someone's trash a few months back with a 'doesn't work' sign on it. i got it to power up but can't get much sound out of it (i think the volume slider is just worn) but the thing sells for a kings ransom on ebay - and it's freakin' huge.
	♥ 4:50pm TDK60: I usually use 90s anyway. About to send a copy of a live tape to a pal (of an old live gig of ours). A Maxell 90.
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm chresti: @dale- blowing out the dust with canned air, often works like magic
	♥ 4:51pm Michael 98145: { i still recall when Brian suggested folks who enjoyed this station exhibited "Freeform encephalopathy" } :)
	🎸 ♥ 4:53pm Mick: Love Supreme - recorded Dec 1964, released 1965
	🎸 ♥ 4:54pm -Ken: Big Noise from Winnetka
	♥ 4:55pm Uncle Michael: big noise from winnetka
	♥ 4:55pm TDK60: I need to get one of those cassette decks that converts to digital.
	♥ 4:55pm Michael 98145: www.youtube.com... yes
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm -Ken: Bob Crosby Orchestra had the hit with it
	♥ 4:56pm Michael 98145: This is the story of a young girl Who was the hippest chick in town. They call her Big Noise from Winettka. Miss Birdie's sure to get around. Big Noise flew in from Winnetka, Stole each fellow's heart and then Big Noise flew in from Winnetka, Big Noise flew right out again. Stop! Look! Listen! Here comes the Big Noise!
	♥ 4:56pm Jeff Golick: Big moose from Winnebago.
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Carmichael: @chresti, you can also buy some spray that cleans sliders and pots. I used to buy it at Radio Shack, when there was a Radio Shack.
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm dale: i had it apart. i get 12 volts dc to the main board but very weak sound, sure the potentiometer needs to be taken apart, it uses metal contacts. i do that, blow out dust use tuner cleaner on switches etc
	♥ 4:57pm Crudbringer: Krupa famously covered it.
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm dale: bings brother ken?
	🎸 ♥ 4:58pm -Ken: Yes, Bob Crosby was Bing's younger brother
	♥ 5:00pm common: Fabio, all!
	♥ 5:01pm common: And Mac... and that sounds great
	🎸 ♥ 5:03pm dale: love 76, baby!
	🎸 ♥ 5:04pm Carmichael: You sound like Floyd the Barber.
	♥ 5:04pm TDK60: It was not terrible! If it was 1968 a WFMU DJ might sound groovy like this; some Ravi Shankar as the bed music.
	♥ 5:06pm Webhamster Henry: Hi MAC.. good to hear your live voice!
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Carmichael: Man, I wore this soundtrack out as a kid.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm dale: a young rick moranis biting off more than he could chew in a gay 42nd street theater.
	5:06pm kimzilla: Is this song in a well known movie?
	♥ 5:07pm TDK60: Incense on in the studio. Some Peter Walker followed by Moondog followed by Pearls Before Swine. (ex.)
	🎸 ♥ 5:07pm Carmichael: Midnight Cowboy.
	♥ 5:08pm Kat in Chicago: I like this version www.youtube.com...
	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: COWS did a fabulous cover of the Midnight Cowboy theme.
	♥ 5:08pm tom from Glasgow: "The film was one of President Jimmy Carter's favorites, with him reportedly screening it several times in the White House movie theater."
	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello.
	5:08pm kimzilla: Thank you Carmichael!
	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm dale: i used to play this on my hohner melodica.
	♥ 5:09pm tom from Glasgow: Faith No More did it too... what's up with '90s alt-rock and "Midnight Cowboy"?
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would see that late nite on TV as a kid: pretty Existential stuff for a young'un. I saw a moving film...it's about a cowboy in the city be a prostitute...yeah - sounds great kid...
	🎸 ♥ 5:10pm chresti: I've never seen Midnight Cowboy
	🎸 ♥ 5:12pm dale: toronto has the spaghetti factory. what's not to like?
	♥ 5:12pm tom from Glasgow: same actually. i'm terrible at seeing movies. i should check that one out. didn;t realise it was the source of the NYC cliche "i'm walkin' here!"
	5:12pm Linda Lee: oh! see it, chresti. it's a film about america.
	♥ 5:12pm Michael 98145: @chresti, it's a memorable film. at least it was for many of us who saw it back when...
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Think of Trane being so far ahead of the Psychedelic Rawkers he inspired...but the bYRds picking up on him by probly '65 isn't too bad...in the meantime - BrianWilson would have to try & stuff the Cosmos into 2minutes30...
	5:13pm Linda Lee: i've seen it repeatedly over the years. it grows.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm dale: RICK MORANIS!!!!
	5:13pm P-90: Bob Balaban in the theater
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm dale: didn't rick moranis go down on jon voigt in the theater?
	5:14pm Linda Lee: you know the phrase 'the pure products of america go crazy'? i always think of it when i see MC.
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: All I know of Midnight Cowboy is Joe Walsh's rendition of "All Night Long" that was on the radio those days.
	♥ 5:14pm TDK60: Mac's from Nutley! So was Annie Oakley, the artist Michael Lenson, and it was Four Seasons territory (Belleville too) Also, Sharon Van Etten.
	♥ 5:16pm northguineahills: I have Vestex PDX-2000s turntables 19 years old and have dropped them down staircases and have had many things spilled on them, and they still work...
	♥ 5:16pm TDK60: Linda, is that quote an Allen Ginsberg one?
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm Barney Grubbs: @coelacanth∅: glad I don't have to bear the burden of Ware, too!
	♥ 5:16pm Michael 98145: Wonder what prefix 989 could have been?? WU9? WUnderful9?
	5:16pm Linda Lee: i don't think so. hang on.
	5:17pm Linda Lee: that was his teacher William Carlos Williams.
	♥ 5:17pm northguineahills: Dang, chresti, MC was one of the first movies I saw when I got into cinema in HS, I've seen it at least five times....
	🎸 ♥ 5:17pm Barney Grubbs: @chresti, which pasadena record store? grew up there & go back occasionally
	♥ 5:18pm TDK60: LL: Ah, W.C. Williams, also of Paterson like Allen.
	5:18pm Listener Robert: slash vs. backslash = Unix vs. DOS
	5:18pm Linda Lee: who remembers that ridiculous fragrance commercial: 'it's herbal, herb!' ..?
	5:19pm Linda Lee: @TDK60 ~ yes!
	5:20pm Linda Lee: Mac's sexy voice sounds like Carlo from Wake!
	🎸 ♥ 5:20pm chresti: Pooh-Bahs
	🎸 ♥ 5:21pm chresti: @Barney
	5:22pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Speaking of 'Wake' - I discovered I can Stream @ Werk! ...but - Typing too hard for me eePod Touchy - no Commenting: best of all worlds perhaps ! :) ...But I listening in daytimes you buggers...
	♥ 5:23pm Michael 98145: @LR, yes MS stole a lot from unix (xenix at that time) but had to subtly change the conventions.
	5:23pm Linda Lee: at least you can hear the music, Rev.
	♥ 5:24pm herb.nyc: When I see you, Fabio, I'll play you my new 60min flute concerto, called "chop shop".
	🎸 ♥ 5:24pm Carmichael: William Carlos Williams from SCTV?!?
	5:25pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh gawd yas.
	♥ 5:25pm TDK60: play the vinyls Fabio...
	5:26pm Tulip: I would like a sound shaped like a toaster
	🎸 ♥ 5:26pm Carmichael: Toots Thielemans played the harmonica for the MC movie, but Tommy Reilly played it on the album.
	5:27pm Linda Lee: wow, i must be getting old. can't listen to Chop Shop.
	5:27pm Linda Lee: was there a william carlos wiliams on sctv?
	5:28pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...altho' Werking in a New Hampshuh factory can effect one's relation to Industrial Music...
	5:29pm Linda Lee: that bit just hit my solar plexus wrong.
	♥ 5:30pm TDK60: Fabio, there's a pretty flute solo by a guest (Lyn Hobson) on a Soft Machine piece, I think "Facelift" from their "Third" LP.
	🎸 ♥ 5:31pm chresti: We need the pledge-o-meter
	♥ 5:32pm TDK60: days of political wreckness.
	5:32pm Linda Lee: no, you can't become The Man & stay positive. as soon as you become The Man, you're evil.
	🎸 ♥ 5:32pm chresti: That way it's like a game show
	5:33pm zpulpa: i dont think eating boogers is too weird.... anyone?
	5:33pm Linda Lee: i lived wtih an extremely intelligent, beautiful, sexy woman who ate her own boogers!
	🎸 ♥ 5:33pm chresti: It's a sign of malnutrition
	♥ 5:33pm TDK60: ..and we're not "anti-social;" we're seekers of the human.
	5:35pm Linda Lee: .. then i started rethinking our relationship..
	♥ 5:35pm northguineahills: Felini's "Clowns"?
	5:36pm Tulip: When I was a kid, I checked them out (behind closed doors). They were salty.
	🎸 ♥ 5:36pm dale: how many thousand dollar + pledgers does the station get?
	5:36pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Harlan Ellison recommended it (boogers) when people got all fanboy. ...Mission accomplished Harlan...
	♥ 5:36pm TDK60: NGH: I figure Fellini's weren't the evill sort if I recall...
	5:36pm bk845: Anyone know if the Mt Hope transmitter is down?
	♥ 5:36pm Michael 98145: We were on a British Air flight where they wanted to charge for water.
	5:37pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...well - picking nose anyhow...
	♥ 5:37pm TDK60: ..wish I could go...I've seen photographs of Sardinia...
	5:37pm Linda Lee: some personal quirks are just too much..
	🎸 ♥ 5:37pm dale: yes bk.
	♥ 5:37pm northguineahills: @TDK: True, Felini was really into clowns and the circus arts....(a bit different then Jodorowsky's same obsession).
	♥ 5:38pm tom from Glasgow: conversely, i was on a United flight that caught fire on the runway
	♥ 5:39pm Michael 98145: Loved Fellini, Jodorowsky not so much -
	🎸 ♥ 5:39pm dale: last year during the marathon the t1 to mt hope was down (or something technical like that) and we only get the sound at 64k.
	♥ 5:39pm northguineahills: @tom: did you have to pay for the fire?
	🎸 ♥ 5:39pm Carmichael: The SCTV thing was an attempt at a joke. John Candy had a smarmy character called William B. Williams.
	♥ 5:39pm TDK60: Oh, useless fact time!: They speak Catalan in Barcelona. They also do in the northwest Sardinian city of Alghero. How about that?
	5:40pm Linda Lee: ah. thought i'd missed an episode! :-)
	🎸 ♥ 5:41pm Carmichael: A longtime band mate of mine lives in Barcelona. He hit the big time and ran away from England to live with his Brazilian ex-model wife. Some people have all the luck ...
	5:42pm queems: fresh meadows is queens

	🎸 ♥ 5:45pm chresti: flunk goes with failure
	♥ 5:45pm northguineahills: @TDK: If I remember correctly, It's a Sardinian dialect equally influenced by Spanish, Occitan, French, and Tuscan (due to multiple changes of polities), making it nearly similar to Catalan, especially w/ spelling...
	5:46pm MAC: Did you pledge?
	5:46pm zpulpa: I cant wait for Fabs and the Pidge next week!
	5:46pm Linda Lee: i'm pledged out for the week, MAC. and i miss your show!
	♥ 5:47pm TDK60: NGH: Wow, will look that up later. Had a friend into linguistics. Aren't Occitan and Catalan rather close?

	5:51pm Linda Lee: lovin this bed music!
	♥ 5:51pm TDK60: I asked on an earlier show today if the boat with Yo La Tango (etc.) will have Catalan, Spanish, or Italian spoken over the ship intercom. Later, I realized: Of course not! It'll be English.

	3:11pm V Priceless: Fab! Hey!
	🎸 ♥ 3:12pm Carmichael: Hey fellow babies!
	🎸 ♥ 3:16pm Barney Grubbs: I bought the rerelease of this Conrad/Faust LP a few years ago and as I was listening to it for the first time started reading about Tony Conrad on wikipedia only to learn that he had died that very day.
	♥ 3:17pm TDK60: The Antique Phonograph Show was friggin' great.
	♥ 3:18pm steveo: Here is Mac's playlist page www.wfmu.org...
	3:20pm yippie: i miss hearing MAC on the air but maybe this podcast thing is a better fit for this chapter of WFMU
	3:21pm yippie: did you listen to do the raccoon by billy murray and his blue babies
	♥ 3:23pm slugluv1313: hi Fabio! hi Mac! FLUFFY RUFFLES!!! yes, i miss Mac's show too -- will definitely check out the podcast :)
	🎸 ♥ 3:23pm Ken From Hyde Park: When Snake Plisskin pushes that button, Mac's technology will leap into the forefront.
	♥ 3:23pm TDK60: Fabio plays all the music that has failed failed failed. We're losers here and only the most special failures congregate. Send $$ now!
	♥ 3:23pm Michael 98145: { this station has the -most amazing- archive of any station anywhere }
	♥ 3:24pm TDK60: ...alright gotta leave, really, now...
	♥ 3:24pm Michael 98145: has power been restored to the transmitter ? streaming just fine ...
	🎸 ♥ 3:25pm chresti: See ya TDK60
	3:26pm Chi Bill: WFMU rocks! I listen M-F 7a-4p CT and only have to tune out on occasion, no offense to Bryce but... however I do like the piece i heard on his show with the bouy bells ringing gently. It's best to give it ALL a listen. Pledge fellow glisteners!
	♥ 3:26pm βrian: I'm converting all my vinyl to cassette tape.
	3:28pm John from Florham Park: @chi bill love your WXRT pretty good station
	♥ 3:29pm coelacanth∅: Barney Grubbs @3.16 that's crazy! (and sad) ...i had something kind of similar happen with David S Ware.
	♥ 3:30pm coelacanth∅: Hi Fabio, Mac, sundry failures
	3:32pm Chi Bill: Hey John, yeah XRT is ok, there's a pretty good college station on the low end of the dial but I can never receive it. Guess I gotta start streaming even local stations.
	♥ 3:32pm coelacanth∅: Chi Bill i Love Bryce! but i Love Uncle Michael too (same time, drummer stream) -fortunately they're so different than each-other i can easily choose based on my mood.
	3:34pm John from Florham Park: @chil bill ever listen to CHIRP they play some very good stuff
	3:38pm Chi Bill: I'll have to check out Chirp. And I'll give Bryce a chance. FMU and listeners have been enlightening and inspiring for me. Happy almost Friday!
	3:39pm John from Florham Park: @chi bill yes the people on the chat boards are great no real trolling people on here
	3:41pm John from Florham Park: &chi bill there is also this program called sophisticated boom boom on Friday’s at 3 and the DJ plays sone great stuff
	♥ 3:41pm coelacanth∅: i used to listen to David's show regularly. another one i miss.
	♥ 3:43pm Kat in Chicago: Ed Anger!
	♥ 3:43pm Michael 98145: i enjoy seeing the vapers going by like steam engines ...
	♥ 3:44pm joe: The Weekly World News had Ed Anger
	♥ 3:44pm βrian: No sugar, no cream. I want my coffee to be coffee.
	♥ 3:46pm tim from champaign: You can do a Mouse of Today pledge by foregoing buying coffee 10 days out of the month.
	♥ 3:46pm Ike: Ouch there @Mac, you're pronouncing Fabio's name so painfully! Isn't it more of a "ahhh" like in "amen", not an AEEEEH like "angle" or "clank"?
	♥ 3:46pm Kat in Chicago: Oh, that's right, Weekly World News.
	3:47pm Fredericks: Mac is saying that the purpose of WFMU is to offend Clay Pigeon? I should pledge more.
	♥ 3:47pm coelacanth∅: John there are occasional trolls though. there was one for a while up till a few weeks ago. 'changed his moniker every few days but usually based on his anal fixation! also a racist and (not surprisingly) a trump cheerleader. i guess he (?) got banned - or bored. i don't know why it took so long to get rid of him. i had no trouble recognising it when it was him.
	3:51pm John from Florham Park: @coel I think I remember, I ignored him
	3:51pm McGreivey: I wish I could convert all my cassette tape to vinyl.
	♥ 3:51pm chris: without trolls, there would be no marbles in a blender T from Bryce. so, there's that.
	3:52pm V Priceless: heya fish! Any claw! sightings?
	🎸 ♥ 3:53pm The Oscar: There used to be a hardware store in my neighborhood that sold Edison cylinders for $5 (circa mid-late 2000s). I regret never picking one up (despite having no conceivable way to play them).
	♥ 3:54pm slugluv1313: re-issue of old ROIR tape? if i remember correctly, some of the live recordings were recorded at CBGB's
	♥ 3:54pm tim from champaign: I've started buying more cassettes. I still listen to music on physical media (other than streaming FMU). I'm getting priced out of vinyl but cassettes are still in my affordability range.
	♥ 3:54pm coelacanth∅: chris also, if you didn't hear the beginning of Irwin's show yesterday -he read a letter to the station from a non-fan. pretty entertaining!
	🎸 ♥ 3:55pm chresti: I suspect that trolls are usually around 12 years old
	3:55pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: my band just released our first album on vinyl. I just figured if you give people CDs or even tapes, they'll just chuck them on a pile when they get home and never listen. A record is different.
	♥ 3:56pm coelacanth∅: hey Veep! no. and i was just thinking about her yesterday. i miss that grrrl.
	♥ 3:56pm chris: thanks, coel. i missed it. i'll listen to the archive. :)
	3:56pm ?: QUIERO HUMILLAR: I WANT TO HUMILIATE
	♥ 3:57pm Ike: @chris, agreed, taking that troll's attempt at an insult and turning it into a positive was awesome. And Bryce is so nice that he's won over some trolls. It's pretty great. This wasn't from the playlist comments but I also really love when someone said that FMU played too much of "a slowed down echo of two dumpsters crashing into each other for 15 minutes".
	♥ 3:57pm joe: @slugluv1313 Two of the tracks were recorded at CBGB on the ROIR cassette. Grabbed it to look at it when it started playing.
	🎸 ♥ 3:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: Just checked for the 90.1 signal. It's not back yet.
	3:58pm el_musgo: and yes terrible pronunciation....
	3:58pm Tulip: I love this bed music and i love you guyssss!
	♥ 3:58pm tim from champaign: What's your band, DC Pat? vinyl is still my preferred way to listen and my favorite format.
	3:58pm Tulip: I loved Mac's pronunciation. I love cemetaries! I wanna go on the tour!!!!
	♥ 3:59pm chris: Ike, i'd love to hear that, too! :)
	4:00pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: @tim Clown Foundation. clownfoundation.com. If you like it, I'll send you a record. I've been shipping them all over the place.
	♥ 4:00pm joe: Esquivel died Jan 3 2002
	♥ 4:02pm coelacanth∅: also, check out what i assume is a comment board post from a (former, i think) listener at the bottom of Thomas Storck's playlist page (formerly called "dangerous for the brain") wfmu.org... ...i love the classics.
	♥ 4:02pm tim from champaign: Thanks DC Pat! I'm always up for hearing something new.
	♥ 4:03pm coelacanth∅: ...actually the 3rd post is even better, because it's so ludicrous.
	4:03pm cory@work: woot!
	4:04pm Tulip: Fabs, your so demanding!
	♥ 4:04pm chris: yes :)
	4:05pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: @Tim: ok, I sent a msg via WFMU, respond with your address and I'll send you a rekkid.
	♥ 4:06pm Jeff Moore: CDs spin between 200 and 500 RPM, depending on where they're reading from on the disc between the inside and outside "grooves".
	♥ 4:06pm βrian: Ak-mak crackers are really good.
	♥ 4:07pm Jeff Moore: Constant linear velocity. Rekkids spin at a constant ANGULAR velocity.
	♥ 4:08pm slugluv1313: @ joe -- ah! thanks! (would have done the same, except i have no idea where my copy is! stored away as, alas, no cassette player right now)
	4:08pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I missed thee actualle McLuhead.
	♥ 4:09pm joe: @slugluv1313 not a big fan of cassettes but I have over the last few years taken to collecting the ROIR stuff when I can find it at reasonable prices. 1/2 Alive and MC's Babes In Arms are two I have had for many many years.
	4:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Gotta Keep Movin' joe.
	🎸 ♥ 4:10pm The Oscar: Actual conversation with a college kid at the record store I worked at (c. 2016): KID: How much do Beatles tracksets cost? ME: (unsure what he said) Beatles...? KID: Oh, the rock band. ME: Right. Um... I'm sorry, what are you asking? KID: You know, the really big CDs. ME: ...You mean records? KID: Yeah!
	4:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Wow. The video game RockBand is discussed among Beatletards cause they have isolated tracks of instruments & talk not easily found elsewhere...
	4:12pm đ¢ ÞäŦ: "the really big CDs" . That is hilarious.
	♥ 4:13pm slugluv1313: @ joe -- do not have a huge cassette collection myself, but i have saved many over the years -- the ROIR tapes i do have are from when they were still a "new" label (oooo i feel "old"!)
	4:14pm yippie: is this a big hole 45 or a little hole 45?
	4:15pm Tulip: I don't actually believe the building is being worked on. I think it is a big scam.
	♥ 4:15pm joe: @yippie be happy you are getting the hole 45 ok :)
	4:16pm yippie: @joe you can keep the hole i just want the revolutions
	4:17pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Deconstruct the building construction...it's an experiment in Music Concrete...
	♥ 4:19pm tim from champaign: Hey DC Pat, I sent you my email address. For some reason I'm having difficulty responding to your contact request.
	🎸 ♥ 4:19pm Ken From Hyde Park: There might be new concrete: www.flickr.com...
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: Construction of the Fables of the Construction...
	♥ 4:22pm coelacanth∅: T.Oscar "tracksets"! "big cds"!!
	4:22pm yippie: walla walla is the west coast new york new york
	♥ 4:23pm Stashu: Yo-yo.
	4:23pm Miss Gretchen: I somehow knew Mac would read that, and it makes me so happy that you all did not know that Bible reference!
	♥ 4:23pm donpappy: Widow's mite: a small contribution given by a person who has very little (Collins English Dictionary)
	🎸 ♥ 4:23pm Carmichael: My brother used to live in Snowqualmie.
	🎸 ♥ 4:24pm dale: walla walla sounds like a laugh in punchline - like beautiful downtown burbank.
	🎸 ♥ 4:25pm dale: this is a good pairing - both deejays deal with a lot of ambient noise.
	🎸 ♥ 4:26pm chresti: Burning Spear has a song titled Walla walla
	🎸 ♥ 4:26pm Carmichael: I used to own a walla-walla pedal.
	🎸 ♥ 4:27pm chresti: Hey Big Spender!
	4:28pm Tulip: SHAFT!
	🎸 ♥ 4:30pm dale: i'd be too drunk to try to get some on a cruise.
	4:31pm Tulip: I wanna go on that durn trip. I think I am going to off myself if I can't go.... :>(
	4:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bullwinkle has a red hat & says Build the WallaWalla.
	🎸 ♥ 4:33pm dale: make frostbite falls great again.
	🎸 ♥ 4:34pm Carmichael: Hey Rocky, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat!
	♥ 4:34pm coelacanth∅: - and they bring their own cylinders and shellacs
	🎸 ♥ 4:35pm dale: fanmail from some flounder?
	♥ 4:35pm coelacanth∅: vinyl is a boutique item now.
	♥ 4:37pm coelacanth∅: it's not a "backslash"!
	🎸 ♥ 4:38pm chresti: cassettes are a thing now, too
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: they are,chresti. very fashionable. they're usually reasonably priced though.
	4:39pm Tulip: I'm listening right now.
	🎸 ♥ 4:40pm chresti: New tape players are kind of pricey though
	♥ 4:40pm TDK60: back again.
	4:41pm johanne kristine: for once listening live - usually i'm asleep by now. loads of love and also some kind of money (once I get back to my computer). phones. smartphones. pfff. technology. but you are appreciated here in sweden. thanks!
	♥ 4:41pm coelacanth∅: wow, can you even get a new player? i just find old ones in decent shape.

	♥ 4:42pm coelacanth∅: TDK60s are fashionable again.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm dale: i heard swans on the station and was like 'holy crap - how have i not heard this?' my wife went to the attic and brought her swans cd's down. she was ahead of the curve.
	4:43pm seth from muddy creek: Commercial success ain’t my yardstick tho. Lots of great artists played here that are just out there.
	🎸 ♥ 4:43pm chresti: A growing industry in refurbishing old cassette players/boomboxes
	♥ 4:44pm coelacanth∅: "moooog"? Fabio i'm shocked!
	🎸 ♥ 4:45pm chresti: I want that...
	♥ 4:45pm TDK60: ..I'm so behind the next thing. Like a guy with a Mohawk in 1990.
	4:45pm johanne kristine: my dad gave me a swans cd for my 14th birthday. he hated it. he gave me a vinyl when I turned 32 and bought the same album for himself. proud of my dad.
	♥ 4:46pm Ike: Sorry, I prefer TDK90s. But don't worry, TDK60. You're just fine the way you are. Don't try those shady elixirs that promise to make you longer.
	🎸 ♥ 4:47pm Carmichael: TDK, one day you'll be a 90, then you'll be ultra-cool.
	4:47pm Listener Robert: Had 90.1 on in the car, radio left on at home, no signal in any of that interval since it'd gone down.
	🎸 ♥ 4:47pm chresti: A friend that has a record store in Pasadena, said a young guy came in, and asked if he had vinyls
	4:48pm P-90: Ciao Fabio, MAC, and amici!
	🎸 ♥ 4:48pm dale: chresti - i found a jvc rc-550 'el diablo' free in someone's trash a few months back with a 'doesn't work' sign on it. i got it to power up but can't get much sound out of it (i think the volume slider is just worn) but the thing sells for a kings ransom on ebay - and it's freakin' huge.
	♥ 4:50pm TDK60: I usually use 90s anyway. About to send a copy of a live tape to a pal (of an old live gig of ours). A Maxell 90.
	🎸 ♥ 4:51pm chresti: @dale- blowing out the dust with canned air, often works like magic
	♥ 4:51pm Michael 98145: { i still recall when Brian suggested folks who enjoyed this station exhibited "Freeform encephalopathy" } :)

	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm -Ken: Bob Crosby Orchestra had the hit with it
	♥ 4:56pm Michael 98145: This is the story of a young girl Who was the hippest chick in town. They call her Big Noise from Winettka. Miss Birdie's sure to get around. Big Noise flew in from Winnetka, Stole each fellow's heart and then Big Noise flew in from Winnetka, Big Noise flew right out again. Stop! Look! Listen! Here comes the Big Noise!
	♥ 4:56pm Jeff Golick: Big moose from Winnebago.
	🎸 ♥ 4:56pm Carmichael: @chresti, you can also buy some spray that cleans sliders and pots. I used to buy it at Radio Shack, when there was a Radio Shack.
	🎸 ♥ 4:57pm dale: i had it apart. i get 12 volts dc to the main board but very weak sound, sure the potentiometer needs to be taken apart, it uses metal contacts. i do that, blow out dust use tuner cleaner on switches etc
	♥ 4:57pm Crudbringer: Krupa famously covered it.

	🎸 ♥ 5:03pm dale: love 76, baby!
	🎸 ♥ 5:04pm Carmichael: You sound like Floyd the Barber.
	♥ 5:04pm TDK60: It was not terrible! If it was 1968 a WFMU DJ might sound groovy like this; some Ravi Shankar as the bed music.
	♥ 5:06pm Webhamster Henry: Hi MAC.. good to hear your live voice!
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm Carmichael: Man, I wore this soundtrack out as a kid.
	🎸 ♥ 5:06pm dale: a young rick moranis biting off more than he could chew in a gay 42nd street theater.

	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: COWS did a fabulous cover of the Midnight Cowboy theme.
	♥ 5:08pm tom from Glasgow: "The film was one of President Jimmy Carter's favorites, with him reportedly screening it several times in the White House movie theater."
	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm Rev. Turnip Druid: also: hello.
	5:08pm kimzilla: Thank you Carmichael!
	🎸 ♥ 5:08pm dale: i used to play this on my hohner melodica.
	♥ 5:09pm tom from Glasgow: Faith No More did it too... what's up with '90s alt-rock and "Midnight Cowboy"?
	5:10pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Would see that late nite on TV as a kid: pretty Existential stuff for a young'un. I saw a moving film...it's about a cowboy in the city be a prostitute...yeah - sounds great kid...
	🎸 ♥ 5:10pm chresti: I've never seen Midnight Cowboy
	🎸 ♥ 5:12pm dale: toronto has the spaghetti factory. what's not to like?
	♥ 5:12pm tom from Glasgow: same actually. i'm terrible at seeing movies. i should check that one out. didn;t realise it was the source of the NYC cliche "i'm walkin' here!"
	5:12pm Linda Lee: oh! see it, chresti. it's a film about america.
	♥ 5:12pm Michael 98145: @chresti, it's a memorable film. at least it was for many of us who saw it back when...
	5:12pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Think of Trane being so far ahead of the Psychedelic Rawkers he inspired...but the bYRds picking up on him by probly '65 isn't too bad...in the meantime - BrianWilson would have to try & stuff the Cosmos into 2minutes30...
	5:13pm Linda Lee: i've seen it repeatedly over the years. it grows.
	🎸 ♥ 5:13pm dale: RICK MORANIS!!!!
	5:13pm P-90: Bob Balaban in the theater
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm dale: didn't rick moranis go down on jon voigt in the theater?
	5:14pm Linda Lee: you know the phrase 'the pure products of america go crazy'? i always think of it when i see MC.
	🎸 ♥ 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: All I know of Midnight Cowboy is Joe Walsh's rendition of "All Night Long" that was on the radio those days.
	♥ 5:14pm TDK60: Mac's from Nutley! So was Annie Oakley, the artist Michael Lenson, and it was Four Seasons territory (Belleville too) Also, Sharon Van Etten.
	♥ 5:16pm northguineahills: I have Vestex PDX-2000s turntables 19 years old and have dropped them down staircases and have had many things spilled on them, and they still work...
	♥ 5:16pm TDK60: Linda, is that quote an Allen Ginsberg one?
	🎸 ♥ 5:16pm Barney Grubbs: @coelacanth∅: glad I don't have to bear the burden of Ware, too!

	🎸 ♥ 5:45pm chresti: flunk goes with failure
	♥ 5:45pm northguineahills: @TDK: If I remember correctly, It's a Sardinian dialect equally influenced by Spanish, Occitan, French, and Tuscan (due to multiple changes of polities), making it nearly similar to Catalan, especially w/ spelling...
