Listener comments!
	11:00am Listener Baby: Baby!
	11:01am clarke: the dude MINDS, man!!
	11:01am Handy Haversack: Morning, all! Nice to hear you on Wake yesterday, Michael!
	11:02am clarke: sanjay's piece!!
	11:06am Hoboken Jack: Hey everybody! I'm experiencing some serious deja vu....
	11:06am Hughie Considine: This song has corrupted me once again.
	11:07am Pedro in Arlington: No. 1 show yesterday, Mike. Don't break our hearts on no caffeine.
	11:08am Daybreak and I’m up! I’m up!: Agreed with @Handy H! Thanks for making it a: #1 Hit Friday yesterday Michael!!!
	11:09am Handy Haversack: Tenor sax on the RRR&tFW version?
	11:09am clarke: guy takes boat to island where his gal is. he takes her in his arms and says he will never leave. i guess the corruption is that he is probably lying?
	11:11am Daybreak and I’m up! I’m up!: Your mentioning of: 2 hrs of #1 hit music reminds me... Put together with yesterday, You are giving us 5 hours of #1 hits! Given you usually have a week to dig up 2 hrs of Michael approved tunes, what was that like? Was Juniper cheering encouragingly or teasing relentlessly?!?
	11:12am Michael Shelley: Honestly - exhilaration! When I picked Juniper up at school yesterday, first question: how was the morning show?
	11:12am clarke: ZZ!!!!!!
	11:13am Mr. Pumpy: Morning, Michael and all...
	11:15am Handy Haversack: They didn't let the whole school listen? The way they used to let us watch Space Shuttle launches?
	11:16am Mark from Columbus: Thanks for the Louie Louie original which I didn’t know existed. That song along with Little Black Egg and Wipeout are the first tunes my garage band rehearsed back in 1966. So yeah, that’s the Genesis of rock n roll.
	11:17am clarke: NOT the original - that would be Richard Berry
	11:18am Listener Baby: I am still haunted and moved by Keely's stirring interpretation of Ice Castles. I carry it with me every day.
	11:18am Mark from Columbus: Thanks for the correction
	11:19am clarke: along with some vine-cutting pliers!!
	11:21am Squints In Plymouth: So, basically, every Raspberries song ever made? (I exaggerate.)
	11:21am clarke: MUCH more controversial than Louie, Louie!!
	11:21am Richard: Love the premium coasters! Great artwork/design.
	11:23am clarke: i think there is an electric guitar mimicking the vocal line in there
	11:24am clarke: some more controversy, here..
	11:28am zivilars: these beer coasters look great!
	11:28am clarke: YOU GOT IT!!!
	11:30am zivilars: If we are already at the subject of WFMU drinking merch – is there any chance to get one of those cool Wake and Bake coffee mugs??? twitter.com...
	11:31am clarke: speaking of controversy: Carol Kaye!!
	11:31am Marley Dogg: HiMichael - I will be volunteering your show in the 7th - can’t wait!
	11:31am Michael Shelley: those are beauty
	11:31am Marley Dogg: *during your show
	11:32am clarke: it would only be fair to play the hal blaine promo next
	11:33am Michael Shelley: BABY - take a look at that amp link - look right? Look easy enough? MD - excellent! THANKS!
	11:34am clarke: guys are not allowed to make that radio/amp conversion
	11:35am Handy Haversack: @zivilars: Looks like all you have to do is pledge $75 or join Swag for Life and select the WAB Premium, and a mug could be yours!
	11:38am Spinning Giant: Tasty lil egg salad ya got whipped up here Master Shelley, squirt of lime, dash of paprika, and all... num num num
	11:38am zivilars: @Handy Haversack – thanks for the info, want to join the Swag for Life anyway! Just still have to find out how to exactly choose which premium (I guess this is one then) I get when pledging ... I'd like to split my pledge to different shows. Will (hopefully) figure this out!
	11:39am Michael Shelley: site says "Wake Travel Chug Mug" - not sure if thats the same one pictured
	11:39am clarke: there is a way to mention up to 5 different shows for your pledge!!
	11:41am Listener Baby: People are going to die. every one of those radios need full blown capacitor changes, resistor replacements, and such. It's deadly in there. Hate to be a buzz kill, but buy a nice amp. That said, I'll have a look. Hee hee.
	11:42am zivilars: @clarke – yeah, if choosing 10$ a month on the WFMU pledge site, I can choose up to 12 shows (one for ever 10$) and will get 1 DJ premium – but it doesn't specify from which one it will be and you there's no choosing option. But whatever, I'll figure this out. Thanks again for the info!
	11:42am Handy Haversack: @zivilars: As I recall, you can add one show for each $10 pledged? And spread your support around. We were trying to figure it out, and Kate kept saying, "And [this show]! And [this show]!" Eventually, "We just love too much." So, you know, the process is fraught. One ends up doing a lot of self-reflection!
	11:42am Michael Shelley: WHAT if folks only use DC?
	11:42am clarke: yeah - some of those old voltage things still have a charge when unplugged, right??
	11:43am Handy Haversack: @Michael, you mean like how (NJ's own) Edison wanted us to have massive battery stations lining every road in the country?
	11:43am zivilars: @Handy: Yeah, got the same problem – already did a one time pledge for two show, then another one for a third one and now for two others ... they just all deserve it! :)
	11:44am clarke: edison will get his wish soon...
	11:44am Michael Shelley: Under "DJ Premium" you have to check the box, then go to the premium menu & pick what you want... or call in when it's live, and do it through the mail...
	11:44am Geoffrey in Ottawa: When I was in grade school, they would sit us in front of a TV in the hall so everyone could watch Canada vs. Russia hockey games. '76 series, I guess?
	11:46am zivilars: @Michael Shelley: Thanks for the info, will do so! Didn't discover the separate premium menu in the process before ...
	11:47am davefromtoronto: =amazing he was a teenager when he did this stuff
	11:47am Listener Baby: One has to use AC to get to DC. The beginning and middle of the power supply is the scary part. I've gotten whacked. No fun.
	11:48am Ojai John: Understatement of the year: over produced
	11:48am Listener Baby: But I need to have a look yet. Maybe they are cheating somehow.
	11:50am Pedro in Arlington: Early Cat can't be appreciated too much. I would caucus for both Early Mike and Midday Mike.
	11:50am Granny Spicy Tuna (e/em): Howdy hey, Michael and WFMU folx! Ojai John: funny to see you by daylight!
	11:51am Listener Baby: How was Squeeze, Baby? Did you mention that yet?
	11:55am Squints In Plymouth: I know this an old standard but honest to God, my only prior encounter is with the Spike Jones version.
	11:59am Micheal: iPhones at shows are the worst.
	12:01pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: I took my Christmas lights down last week. Now I have a string of white lights over my front door. I like to sit out under them in the summertime and would like to add another colour but I don't know. Any thoughts anyone? I'm open to colour suggestions.
	12:01pm Michael Shelley: Take a photo - or a few seconds of video - fine... but the whole show... no.
	12:01pm clarke: too many notes
	12:01pm Michael Shelley: GIO - I'm cool with that
	12:02pm clarke: white lights are cool all year round to me
	12:02pm Handy Haversack: I know it's a losing battle, but smart phones at concerts make me seethe. TVs are distracting. And phones are just TVs. I worry I'm going to start acting out.
	12:03pm AndyIowa: John Popper does or used to wear those harmonica vests: m.imgur.com... Also, howdy Michael and fellow ‘FMUers... almost Marathon time! -AndyIowa in Brooklyn
	12:04pm Spinning Giant: John Popper of Blues Traveler has one of those crazy military style harp vests - say what you want about harp players, that dude can blow - saw him once back in early 90s at a one-off show in TO co-opening with Pearl jam for Neil Young (w/ Booker T & the MGs) - the whole spectacle was superb - watching Popper seamlessly switch between harps druing his extended jam riffs was mesmerizing...
	12:04pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: My neighbour down the street is from Cuba and on a Friday night in summer he'll drink a few beers and play loud Cuban music and I'll sit on my porch under my lights, drinking beer and listening in. At this point, that's probably better than going to a concert.
	12:04pm Spinning Giant: GIO - amber, baby, amber
	12:05pm clarke: john popper could probably hold one hundred harmonicas in his vest or MORE
	12:06pm clarke: ALSO: john popper: TOO MANY NOTES!
	12:06pm Mike East: Hey I think I know that listener Carol from the Bronx! Good morning Michael and everyone!!
	12:07pm Lixiviated Life: Hey! Good sounds
	12:07pm clarke: a day of carol-ing
	12:07pm Spinning Giant: love these Nashville Skyline studio session outtakes w Bob & Johnny - have a 15 cut LP of those recordings put out by Clarke Sisters Records - some sloppy drunken numbers, but also some gems - especially love their version of Mountain Dew
	12:09pm clarke: those studio monitor speakers aren't CRANKED are they MS??
	12:10pm Sean: I think Popper has even more guns and ammo to put in those than harmonicas. He is a serious gun "lover" https://news.avclub.com/read-this-blues-traveler-singer-john-poppers-22-tweet-1798238457
	12:10pm DJ Guin: While I love the Ramones..how ironic is that this song is played in every frggin' sports arena. The Ramones were outcasts that prolly got picked on by jocks and bullies. ::smfh::
	12:11pm clarke: that guy disgusted me before i even knew this
	12:11pm Mr. Pumpy: @Handy...I've gotten into with people many times over phones at the movies and at shows. Put the damn phone away! A quick photo is one thing, but I don't need to be watching the band through some idiot's phone.
	12:11pm Spinning Giant: GIO - how's the weather in the nation's capital, today? Southern Ontario is sunny and warm (ish) - lived there from 91-97 while attending Carleton - one year I lived at the far end of the canal and on perfect winter days we would skate to school, passing the puck around the whole way, of course - what hosers ;) ...great memories...
	12:12pm johnk77: @mikeeast u r correct carol says hi
	12:13pm Mr. Pumpy: @Spinning Giant...I like that story!
	12:15pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: @Spinning Giant beautiful sunny day here, above zero. Supposed to be warm for the next few days and I suspect after that the canal will be shut down for the season
	12:16pm Handy Haversack: @GiO, SG: Only a couple more months till canoeing season!
	12:20pm clarke: arenthia??
	12:21pm Michael Shelley: fake news
	12:23pm clarke: no please??
	12:25pm Andrew S: I think Cynthia's sister's name was Arrhythmia ;) Hey Geoff - steady stream of folks walking past my window to the canal with skates today, ice may get a little soft but what a day for it
	12:25pm clarke: and it IS so good - never heard of or heard this before...???
	12:26pm clarke: #Uno
	12:28pm DJ Guin: "Kill Me"..."A Long Time in the Ground"...why so serious, Michael?
	12:28pm clarke: he has anger
	12:28pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: @Handy You got it! If I can start biking to work before the end of March, I will be a happy boy.
	12:29pm clarke: this is, indeed Mardi Gras weekend - and nice weather, too. them injuns be dancin'
	12:29pm Handy Haversack: @GiO: If you ever come to NYC and want to get some amazing urban canoeing in, hit me up!
	12:30pm Michael Shelley: actually -We're gonna love, gotta find my baby, silly little Cynthia you done me wrong, kill me, and its so good... a long time in the ground. Poor sam.
	12:31pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: @Handy Will do, for sure. That sounds amazing.
	12:31pm Michael Shelley: I WANT TO GO URBAN CANOEING!
	12:32pm yuccastkid: my my first "concert" was Don & the Good Times at the Medford (Oregon) Armory. Smelled like the pro wrestling venue it was!
	12:32pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: @Handy My nieghbour regularly canoes across the Ottawa river to a city-owned island where he has built a summer camp for himself. I've been over a couple times and it is amazing, so if you, yourself, ever get up this way, hit me up and I'll arrange a visit.
	12:32pm WR: 3rd Prima related tune today.
	12:32pm Handy Haversack: Dang, Michael, say the word! (Once it's warm!) Last summer or the one before, I was trying to organize a paddling day for WFMU DJs and volunteers -- I can go back to that effort! But also available to take you and a smaller group out whenever you want!
	12:33pm Handy Haversack: @GiO: You better believe I will! @Michael: Kate and I are coming down to volunteer during Todd's show 3/14. Maybe we can chat about canoeing chances then.
	12:33pm Spinning Giant: Handy - that does sound amazing! Urban canoeing in NYC - WOW! And GIO - that also sounds amazing! Assuming I won't get scoffed at for bringing my kayak (as opposed to canoe) ;P
	12:34pm Michael Shelley: WOULD LOVE TO TAKE THE KID THIS SUMMER! Hope to see you 14th !
	12:35pm DJ Guin: @HH...great. Now all I can picture is Batman in a sailboat created by the Green Lantern... www.youtube.com...
	12:35pm Geoffrey in Ottawa: @ Spinning Giant We won't have to ferry you over so kayak away!
	12:36pm clarke: 520's
	12:37pm SmokinJ: Dyno!
	12:37pm clarke: watch ya gain structchah!!!
	12:37pm ?: Love this Bangles album, and tune. I'm still waiting for the Go-Go/Bangles co-headlining tour. They've played on each other's albums & written songs together (& Vicki filled in for Charlotte on a Go-Gos tour once) so I keep thinking it's going to happen. And the Bangles now have their original bass player back (who's on the first EP).
	12:37pm MFlynn: He sure does wanna be Elvis!
	12:38pm clarke: @? - it already happened at mardi gras in the 00's
	12:38pm Spinning Giant: @ Handy & @GIO - I am looking at purchasing a few acres w/ cabin on the river on a north-south route that takes you up to North Bay, just outside the western gate of Algonquin Park - has some small outbuildings I was dreaming of converting into bunkies and setting up a kind of way station for paddlers, trekkers, et al - keep you posted if I manage to pull it all together...
	12:38pm DG: Sorry, that last Bangles comment was mine, forgot to add my moniker.
