	9:49am morphe': Thanks JA - must get in the food line .. to be repeatedly repetitive.. There is no longer hoarding in Madrid but people do a bit on the weekends.. just need my few items, but needed they are..I am in a Yoda sentence mode since my son Simon(8.7) is completely fixated on Weird Al: Eat it, Like a Surgeon, Girls Just want to have Lunch and Yoda Y-O-A-D-A Yoda...Please NOT a request!!!!! He is driving me crazy
	9:50am modern blaze: what is morphe'
	9:50am jmr3: Jimmy Page or not?
	👻 9:52am Handy Haversack: Fuerte, @morphe'!
	9:53am steveo: morphe', we also stood in line to get into the food co-op this week in brooklyn. yeah my kids did weird al a couple of years ago, an important cultural touchstone :)
	9:55am steveo: @mb it's greek, to me
	9:57am Rachel Bo Bachel: Whoa, lovin’ this organ.
	9:58am morphe': ModernB.. my BC name is Murphy.. in Bklyn (and elsewhere) everyone had a nickname - Flash, Big Ears, Yellowman, Jonnhy T - or worse.. I was lucky to keep my name - more or less - so I was Murphy or Morph as fellow G/Listener Earth would have it. Went through a heroin phase combined with Classical Greek studies - Morpheus y Lethe are rivers in the storiestexts{dreams and forgetting/death?]- I became Morphe' at that point.. 40 yeays clean.. Only beer and wine... and good food and hot sauce - no guns involved (a W&B) reference from Thursday... off to the food lines.. Happily, there is not yet a Soylent Green shelf...Be Safe... Morphe'
	9:58am Alvy Singer: Thanks for all the great songs this morning JA.
	9:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: god, this surfers rekkid changed my life at the time..
	9:59am Alvy Singer: Rembrandt Pussyhorse is one of the great psych albums of the 80's.
	10:00am Rachel Bo Bachel: Morphe <3 thanks for sharing that backstory, way cool buddy!
	10:02am morphe': Steveo - greek to me - Touche' - yer post prior to my explanation... Kudos!!!
	10:02am mariano: Really interesting story, @morphe'. I remember living in Carroll Gardens how everyone had a nickname: Vinny Ears, Frankie Robot. There was even a fella named Georgie Mafia, drove a hearse for a funeral home. Life can be stranger than fiction.
	10:03am steveo: just a guess; thanks for the the story :)
	10:04am steveo: real*
	👻 10:04am Handy Haversack: My friend J Scoops who grew up here insists that the more unassuming and nonthreatening one's nickname was, the more badass it was assumed the possessor had to be Richie Peanuts and Roscoe Yodels were our best.
	10:06am peckinpah: Super set, JA. Thanks!
	10:06am morphe': Handy - I have been curious - where is yer there??? Sorry if already said many times..
	10:07am Dave in Vermont: thanks, John
	10:09am morphe': Thanks Rachel and I hope you are well!!! I write love and hearts and pixie dust!!!!
	10:13am morphe': Mariano - Dead on!! -- not a pun on the hearse - just my linguistic roots!!!
	10:13am zpp: i dropped my glove when he said glove
	10:15am mariano: @morphe' - one of the Mardi Gras parades is the Krewe of Morpheus, you should ride in it some day!
	10:16am Mike & Dusty: hi John
	👻 10:18am Handy Haversack: Sounds like a sleepy time, @mariano! @morphe', "where is [my] there?"? Like -- where am I? Greenpoint, BKNY. Close to the bridge. Over 20 years now! Yeesh, when did THAT happen.
	10:18am Corey: Morning Handy! Missed the chance to say so on the last accu playlist.
	10:23am TomDash: Morning John and all. Loving this set right here...
	10:24am steveo: good title
	10:27am Eel: morning all
	👻 10:28am Handy Haversack: Hey, Corey! How waves the Mitten this morn? My friend in Ypsi is feeling it. The brewpub he manages is down to take-out only. I told him he can go to the farm in Oceana Co. if he wants to. Must be warming up enough to turn the pump from the well back on ...
	10:35am BRM: Appreciate that WFMU is honoring Genesis P-Orridge this week. Fabio hosted a beautiful tribute yesterday, JA is doing a lovely job here. If not here, where will s/he be properly remembered? Thank you, JA.
	👻 10:35am Handy Haversack: Dang, this is so good.
	10:36am ToTetsu: Just got home find I left wfmu on. what a track to walk into unprepared.
	10:38am karen eliot: love this album. great show.
	10:39am Mike & Dusty: man, Dusty does not dig PTV
	10:39am Mike & Dusty: no wait, she just came back to “Jigsaw”...
	👻 10:39am Handy Haversack: Dusty: such a traditionalist!
	10:39am John Allen: like
	10:41am Mike & Dusty: dogs are painfully honest heya Handy
	10:42am Mike & Dusty: i can admit here that it’s been hard to have a dog who does not like avant-garde
	10:45am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jigsaw & Horror House were clear favorites during those USA tours. Explosive.
	👻 10:46am Handy Haversack: Bagpipe barely notices until, e.g., Kate plugs in the bass and runs her set.
	10:46am Charliechan33: " Red Earth White Lies" a good read with all the free time. Native Americans Indians view of western science. Especially timely during our living modern experiment these days
	10:46am Corey: @Handy...a little snow today, but return to warm weather in a couple of days. Saw my first robin this week and before this morning no snow/ice on the ground, so all signs point to spring. Likely be able to fire up the pump for the well. I was laid off yesterday from my brewery job. Take out beer not taking off just yet apparently
	10:48am Rev. Turnip Druid: that Allegory & Self rekkid is some heavy nostalgia territory.
	👻 10:48am Handy Haversack: Oof, Corey, so sorry to hear it.
	10:59am morphe': Corey/Handy: The Cuckoo one of my Ma's Irish Lullabies(pl?SP?) The Cucko comes in April.. She Sings her song in May She lays her eggs in June and then she flys away.. My favorite bed time song for my older son and this wee one too is: The Lark in The Morning Mine was quiet and acapella - this is Luke Kelly/ the Dubliners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4B1kyHb4Lc
	11:00am Corey: Thanks, Handy, it's a hit but we'll manage. Was planning to open a new brewery this summer with my brother and sister in law, though those plans too we'll have to be reconsidered I suppose.
	11:01am tim from Champaign: Hi JA and everybody!
	11:01am morphe': Corey !!! Sorry to hear that - What times these are... Be well...
	11:02am upstate sean: JA,man that description of your show totally cracks me up.
	11:04am Corey: @morphe'...Thanks for the lullaby! These times indeed. More grateful for the small things as a consolation.
	11:06am Andrew_in_WI: JAZZ
	11:07am Mike & Dusty: when we returned to jazz it found us wanting
	11:07am John Allen: Return To Jazz Forever
	👻 11:09am Handy Haversack: @Corey, I will let you know when we're out in W. Michigan this summer, and the first beer is on me.
	11:09am Rory: Butthole Surfers are my gods and I missed it played live on fmu
	11:11am Rory: And anybody who was lucky enough to see them in the 80’s.......IM EXTREMELY JEALOUS!
	11:16am Corey: @Handy, thanks man! And if and when we open the brewery, I'll take care of the next rounds.
	11:19am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Rory: just twice, but that was enough to break the brain for keeps.
	11:22am Rory: @Rev I envy you!
	11:25am Rev. Turnip Druid: had to look it up; it was new years eve 1988 [dc]: surfers w/the cramps & dead milkmen. Still favorite show ever. The other one was less perfect & later [1993 with flaming lips & "stone pimple toilets" as gibby called 'em] at some outdoor venue in upstate NY...
	11:25am Alvy Singer: @Rory I saw the Butthole Surfers over a dozen times including shows when Ta Da the Shit Lady was dancing with them. Check this You Tube show from '87. www.youtube.com...
	👻 11:27am p20: @rory: Truly one of my regrets in life was not seeing the Surfers during their "classic" period... I had a few chances but I didn't go.
	👻 11:30am p20: (But I did get to see the Minutemen and Hüsker Dü at the Channel in Boston - that kind of makes up for it)
	11:31am Rory: My brother was at one of the Stone Temple Pilots/Butthole Surfers shows back then. He like many others mind was blown seeing them(how could you go on after them?). I was only four when I listened to Independent Worm Saloon.
	11:33am modern blaze: best comments and everything because of JA! blaze ya aaall!
	👻 11:33am p20: I was living near Princeton in the mid-80s (no, I did not attend school there). Driving around, heard "Lady Sniff" on the radio (WPRB), loved it, drove straight to Princeton Record Exchange to score a copy!
	11:33am Rev. Turnip Druid: We definitely split before the Pimple Toilets set. #priorities -- But that DC show in '88 was caps-lock NUTS.
	11:34am modern blaze: it's magic!
	11:35am sphere: hullo
	11:35am sphere: be patient with Bandcamp it is being flooded.
	11:35am modern blaze: holla
	11:35am Cubicle Carl: Jazz.....
	11:36am Earth Walker: Kids ya can’t live with em ya can’t take em out back and shoot em Raised my kid here in France Love Patience Understanding
	11:36am modern blaze: raise the curtain!
	11:38am John Allen: my fake id couldnt get me into their court taven show in 86 or 87. i listened from the rear entrance for awhile hoping to sneak in
	11:39am Rory: @Rev - pimple toilets indeed! It takes a lot of you know what to go on after the Butts. Cmon man!
	11:39am Rev. Turnip Druid: Don Cherry. [salutes]
	👻 11:39am p20: At my house - We Love Don Cherry !! And we've never heard this track before. Thanks JA.
	11:39am modern blaze: i like to hop and sneak into the shows
	11:40am sphere: Hey Rev, were you at the SY/Pelt show in DC?
	11:41am sphere: and Rake too, can't forget those folks.
	11:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: Alas, Sphere, I was not. I was way late to Pelt School, which i regret...
	11:42am karen eliot: thanks! stay safe and healthy everyone.
	11:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: SWEET MOTHER OF WEE, the internet is a wondrous thing filled with such treasures: www.concertarchives.org...
	11:42am sphere: you too karen.
	11:43am JakeGould: For those in NYC who care, NY is going to be doing this, “I will sign an Executive Order mandating that 100% of workforce must stay home, excluding essential services. This order excludes pharmacies, grocery stores, and others.” twitter.com...
	11:44am sydnius: I am ready for my cosmic today thanks to you JA
	11:44am modern blaze: what is beeper
	11:44am sphere: Rev, your best bet for Pelt is For Michael Hannas. it's almost all acoustic but the recording is great.
	👻 11:45am Handy Haversack: @sphere (11:35): that's a good problem!
	👻 11:46am Handy Haversack: Thanks, @JakeGould. I get my news from WFMU and the accu!
	11:46am Rev. Turnip Druid: thanks Sphere, I'll follow that lead.. I did manage to see Jack Rose (solo) once -- on a bill with Grails and Om (!) ... a very special night all 'round.
	11:46am Earth Walker: Yeah we all had nicknames in Bklyn Bay Ridge weasel dumbo glom groucho goose bones mike the bike fat vinny Goober rocky haz fio b.o. space case
	11:47am modern blaze: mike the bike ah yeah
	👻 11:48am Handy Haversack: @Earth Walker: J Scoops's best friend growing up was Teddy Doughnuts.
	11:48am sphere: honestly, Pelt was really a live band and none of the live recordings really captured them right. Hannas is as best as I've heard.
	11:48am Rory: I saw Om live and it was a life changing experience.
	11:48am modern blaze: fat vinny is def a goon
	11:48am morphe': Ja, Modern Blaze, etal - Irriving Plza had the side door into the Polish Club which gave access.. that got shut down eventually. Cbs had the back door in the alley/street behind - rare but sometimes.. My best was happening upon punks in Mexico City going to Burning Spear - sold out and complete chaos outside - cops in turtle gear.. went around back and somehow?? Managed to convince them I was a NY journalist wholeft his Press pass in the hotel .. chaos inside too - show got shut down after about 45 mins. A big arena.. Folks in the upper tiers were jumping into the lower tiers to get to the main floor .. utter chaos - interesting but the show got shut down. Frown Emoji..
	11:49am modern blaze: shots been fired here -00-
	11:51am mariano: Oh yeah, speaking of NYC nicknames, there was also Jerry Bagels in Carroll Gardens, owned Bagels by the Park on Smith. When I lived in Prospect Heights in the 90s, the nicknames were more like Beef, Trust, Universal, Bugsy, Rockefeller, Jokester.
	11:52am JakeGould: Also more on topic for “JA in the AM” listeners, “Bon Jovi washes dishes at his Soul Kitchen amid coronavirus outbreak” www.nj.com...
	11:52am morphe': Fat Vinny threw/murdered a women off tge club house roof.. After a bad accident - FV was in hospital and someone pulled out his air tube ... end of story.. out... must get some beer for breakfast.. be safe all..Thanks JA
	11:53am modern blaze: bon jovi? nah
	11:53am Earth Walker: morphe that’s funny I share a very famous name. Here in France I used it before. Asked for backstage passes and always ended up with free tickets
	11:53am bk845: I hate to tell you this, but Sullivan country doesn't want you. They issued a polite request to stay out of the county if you are not a resident.
	11:53am mariano: Take care, morphe', be careful out there.
	11:53am Doobois: Are you a resident of Sullivan County, JA? I live in Orange County (Sugar Loaf) and local media reported that Sullivan "shut its borders."
	11:53am bk845: www.recordonline.com...
	11:53am Doobois: The faster draw, bk845!
	11:54am bk845: :) Nice to meet you Doobois...Town of Warwick represent!
	11:54am Earth Walker: Morphe got the email !
	11:54am JakeGould: Also, Bandcamp is very noticeably slow today. Getting slammed by people buying on fee waiving day so the artists get 100% of the purchase.
	11:55am Doobois: Well now, just down the road a bit. Same to you, and be safe!
	11:56am modern blaze: EW on easy
	11:56am John Allen: thanks for the news Doobois. I have a place up there, guess I'm calling my town spervisor to see what's up
	👻 11:56am Handy Haversack: Gotta be in a meeting. Thanks for all, JA!
	11:56am Earth Walker: Morphe that fat vinny story sound familiar
	11:57am modern blaze: dumbo won't get it...
	11:57am Doobois: Sure thing, JA, and good idea.
	11:58am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, JA! Stay safe, man.
	11:58am John Allen: guess I'll need to bring my electric bill
	11:59am Earth Walker: I don’t know if the Hells Angels are like they used to be back in the 70 s
	12:00pm Doobois: Can't wait to hear the full tale next week, JA.
	12:00pm egould310: Good meowrning from Seattle, WA!
	12:00pm Earth Walker: Happy Trails all

JA In The AM with John Allen: Playlist from March 20, 2020

View John Allen's profile

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	9:49am morphe': Thanks JA - must get in the food line .. to be repeatedly repetitive.. There is no longer hoarding in Madrid but people do a bit on the weekends.. just need my few items, but needed they are..I am in a Yoda sentence mode since my son Simon(8.7) is completely fixated on Weird Al: Eat it, Like a Surgeon, Girls Just want to have Lunch and Yoda Y-O-A-D-A Yoda...Please NOT a request!!!!! He is driving me crazy
	9:50am modern blaze: what is morphe'
	9:50am jmr3: Jimmy Page or not?
	👻 9:52am Handy Haversack: Fuerte, @morphe'!
	9:53am steveo: morphe', we also stood in line to get into the food co-op this week in brooklyn. yeah my kids did weird al a couple of years ago, an important cultural touchstone :)
	9:55am steveo: @mb it's greek, to me
	9:57am Rachel Bo Bachel: Whoa, lovin’ this organ.
	9:58am morphe': ModernB.. my BC name is Murphy.. in Bklyn (and elsewhere) everyone had a nickname - Flash, Big Ears, Yellowman, Jonnhy T - or worse.. I was lucky to keep my name - more or less - so I was Murphy or Morph as fellow G/Listener Earth would have it. Went through a heroin phase combined with Classical Greek studies - Morpheus y Lethe are rivers in the storiestexts{dreams and forgetting/death?]- I became Morphe' at that point.. 40 yeays clean.. Only beer and wine... and good food and hot sauce - no guns involved (a W&B) reference from Thursday... off to the food lines.. Happily, there is not yet a Soylent Green shelf...Be Safe... Morphe'
	9:58am Alvy Singer: Thanks for all the great songs this morning JA.
	9:58am Rev. Turnip Druid: god, this surfers rekkid changed my life at the time..
	9:59am Alvy Singer: Rembrandt Pussyhorse is one of the great psych albums of the 80's.
	10:00am Rachel Bo Bachel: Morphe <3 thanks for sharing that backstory, way cool buddy!
	10:02am morphe': Steveo - greek to me - Touche' - yer post prior to my explanation... Kudos!!!
	10:02am mariano: Really interesting story, @morphe'. I remember living in Carroll Gardens how everyone had a nickname: Vinny Ears, Frankie Robot. There was even a fella named Georgie Mafia, drove a hearse for a funeral home. Life can be stranger than fiction.
	10:03am steveo: just a guess; thanks for the the story :)
	10:04am steveo: real*
	👻 10:04am Handy Haversack: My friend J Scoops who grew up here insists that the more unassuming and nonthreatening one's nickname was, the more badass it was assumed the possessor had to be Richie Peanuts and Roscoe Yodels were our best.
	10:06am peckinpah: Super set, JA. Thanks!
	10:06am morphe': Handy - I have been curious - where is yer there??? Sorry if already said many times..
	10:07am Dave in Vermont: thanks, John
	10:09am morphe': Thanks Rachel and I hope you are well!!! I write love and hearts and pixie dust!!!!

	10:13am zpp: i dropped my glove when he said glove
	10:15am mariano: @morphe' - one of the Mardi Gras parades is the Krewe of Morpheus, you should ride in it some day!
	10:16am Mike & Dusty: hi John
	👻 10:18am Handy Haversack: Sounds like a sleepy time, @mariano! @morphe', "where is [my] there?"? Like -- where am I? Greenpoint, BKNY. Close to the bridge. Over 20 years now! Yeesh, when did THAT happen.
	10:18am Corey: Morning Handy! Missed the chance to say so on the last accu playlist.
	10:23am TomDash: Morning John and all. Loving this set right here...
	10:24am steveo: good title
	10:27am Eel: morning all
	👻 10:28am Handy Haversack: Hey, Corey! How waves the Mitten this morn? My friend in Ypsi is feeling it. The brewpub he manages is down to take-out only. I told him he can go to the farm in Oceana Co. if he wants to. Must be warming up enough to turn the pump from the well back on ...
	10:35am BRM: Appreciate that WFMU is honoring Genesis P-Orridge this week. Fabio hosted a beautiful tribute yesterday, JA is doing a lovely job here. If not here, where will s/he be properly remembered? Thank you, JA.
	👻 10:35am Handy Haversack: Dang, this is so good.
	10:36am ToTetsu: Just got home find I left wfmu on. what a track to walk into unprepared.
	10:38am karen eliot: love this album. great show.
	10:39am Mike & Dusty: man, Dusty does not dig PTV
	10:39am Mike & Dusty: no wait, she just came back to “Jigsaw”...
	👻 10:39am Handy Haversack: Dusty: such a traditionalist!
	10:39am John Allen: like
	10:41am Mike & Dusty: dogs are painfully honest heya Handy
	10:42am Mike & Dusty: i can admit here that it’s been hard to have a dog who does not like avant-garde
	10:45am Rev. Turnip Druid: Jigsaw & Horror House were clear favorites during those USA tours. Explosive.
	👻 10:46am Handy Haversack: Bagpipe barely notices until, e.g., Kate plugs in the bass and runs her set.
	10:46am Charliechan33: " Red Earth White Lies" a good read with all the free time. Native Americans Indians view of western science. Especially timely during our living modern experiment these days
	10:46am Corey: @Handy...a little snow today, but return to warm weather in a couple of days. Saw my first robin this week and before this morning no snow/ice on the ground, so all signs point to spring. Likely be able to fire up the pump for the well. I was laid off yesterday from my brewery job. Take out beer not taking off just yet apparently
	10:48am Rev. Turnip Druid: that Allegory & Self rekkid is some heavy nostalgia territory.
	👻 10:48am Handy Haversack: Oof, Corey, so sorry to hear it.
	10:59am morphe': Corey/Handy: The Cuckoo one of my Ma's Irish Lullabies(pl?SP?) The Cucko comes in April.. She Sings her song in May She lays her eggs in June and then she flys away.. My favorite bed time song for my older son and this wee one too is: The Lark in The Morning Mine was quiet and acapella - this is Luke Kelly/ the Dubliners https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4B1kyHb4Lc
	11:00am Corey: Thanks, Handy, it's a hit but we'll manage. Was planning to open a new brewery this summer with my brother and sister in law, though those plans too we'll have to be reconsidered I suppose.
	11:01am tim from Champaign: Hi JA and everybody!
	11:01am morphe': Corey !!! Sorry to hear that - What times these are... Be well...
	11:02am upstate sean: JA,man that description of your show totally cracks me up.
	11:04am Corey: @morphe'...Thanks for the lullaby! These times indeed. More grateful for the small things as a consolation.
	11:06am Andrew_in_WI: JAZZ
	11:07am Mike & Dusty: when we returned to jazz it found us wanting
	11:07am John Allen: Return To Jazz Forever
	👻 11:09am Handy Haversack: @Corey, I will let you know when we're out in W. Michigan this summer, and the first beer is on me.
	11:09am Rory: Butthole Surfers are my gods and I missed it played live on fmu
	11:11am Rory: And anybody who was lucky enough to see them in the 80’s.......IM EXTREMELY JEALOUS!
	11:16am Corey: @Handy, thanks man! And if and when we open the brewery, I'll take care of the next rounds.
	11:19am Rev. Turnip Druid: @Rory: just twice, but that was enough to break the brain for keeps.
	11:22am Rory: @Rev I envy you!
	11:25am Rev. Turnip Druid: had to look it up; it was new years eve 1988 [dc]: surfers w/the cramps & dead milkmen. Still favorite show ever. The other one was less perfect & later [1993 with flaming lips & "stone pimple toilets" as gibby called 'em] at some outdoor venue in upstate NY...
	11:25am Alvy Singer: @Rory I saw the Butthole Surfers over a dozen times including shows when Ta Da the Shit Lady was dancing with them. Check this You Tube show from '87. www.youtube.com...
	👻 11:27am p20: @rory: Truly one of my regrets in life was not seeing the Surfers during their "classic" period... I had a few chances but I didn't go.
	👻 11:30am p20: (But I did get to see the Minutemen and Hüsker Dü at the Channel in Boston - that kind of makes up for it)
	11:31am Rory: My brother was at one of the Stone Temple Pilots/Butthole Surfers shows back then. He like many others mind was blown seeing them(how could you go on after them?). I was only four when I listened to Independent Worm Saloon.
	11:33am modern blaze: best comments and everything because of JA! blaze ya aaall!
	👻 11:33am p20: I was living near Princeton in the mid-80s (no, I did not attend school there). Driving around, heard "Lady Sniff" on the radio (WPRB), loved it, drove straight to Princeton Record Exchange to score a copy!
	11:33am Rev. Turnip Druid: We definitely split before the Pimple Toilets set. #priorities -- But that DC show in '88 was caps-lock NUTS.
	11:34am modern blaze: it's magic!
	11:35am sphere: hullo
	11:35am sphere: be patient with Bandcamp it is being flooded.
	11:35am modern blaze: holla
	11:35am Cubicle Carl: Jazz.....
	11:36am Earth Walker: Kids ya can’t live with em ya can’t take em out back and shoot em Raised my kid here in France Love Patience Understanding
	11:36am modern blaze: raise the curtain!
	11:38am John Allen: my fake id couldnt get me into their court taven show in 86 or 87. i listened from the rear entrance for awhile hoping to sneak in
	11:39am Rory: @Rev - pimple toilets indeed! It takes a lot of you know what to go on after the Butts. Cmon man!
	11:39am Rev. Turnip Druid: Don Cherry. [salutes]
	👻 11:39am p20: At my house - We Love Don Cherry !! And we've never heard this track before. Thanks JA.
	11:39am modern blaze: i like to hop and sneak into the shows
	11:40am sphere: Hey Rev, were you at the SY/Pelt show in DC?
	11:41am sphere: and Rake too, can't forget those folks.
	11:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: Alas, Sphere, I was not. I was way late to Pelt School, which i regret...
	11:42am karen eliot: thanks! stay safe and healthy everyone.
	11:42am Rev. Turnip Druid: SWEET MOTHER OF WEE, the internet is a wondrous thing filled with such treasures: www.concertarchives.org...
	11:42am sphere: you too karen.
	11:43am JakeGould: For those in NYC who care, NY is going to be doing this, “I will sign an Executive Order mandating that 100% of workforce must stay home, excluding essential services. This order excludes pharmacies, grocery stores, and others.” twitter.com...
	11:44am sydnius: I am ready for my cosmic today thanks to you JA
	11:44am modern blaze: what is beeper
	11:44am sphere: Rev, your best bet for Pelt is For Michael Hannas. it's almost all acoustic but the recording is great.
	👻 11:45am Handy Haversack: @sphere (11:35): that's a good problem!
	👻 11:46am Handy Haversack: Thanks, @JakeGould. I get my news from WFMU and the accu!
	11:46am Rev. Turnip Druid: thanks Sphere, I'll follow that lead.. I did manage to see Jack Rose (solo) once -- on a bill with Grails and Om (!) ... a very special night all 'round.
	11:46am Earth Walker: Yeah we all had nicknames in Bklyn Bay Ridge weasel dumbo glom groucho goose bones mike the bike fat vinny Goober rocky haz fio b.o. space case
	11:47am modern blaze: mike the bike ah yeah
	👻 11:48am Handy Haversack: @Earth Walker: J Scoops's best friend growing up was Teddy Doughnuts.
	11:48am sphere: honestly, Pelt was really a live band and none of the live recordings really captured them right. Hannas is as best as I've heard.
	11:48am Rory: I saw Om live and it was a life changing experience.
	11:48am modern blaze: fat vinny is def a goon
	11:48am morphe': Ja, Modern Blaze, etal - Irriving Plza had the side door into the Polish Club which gave access.. that got shut down eventually. Cbs had the back door in the alley/street behind - rare but sometimes.. My best was happening upon punks in Mexico City going to Burning Spear - sold out and complete chaos outside - cops in turtle gear.. went around back and somehow?? Managed to convince them I was a NY journalist wholeft his Press pass in the hotel .. chaos inside too - show got shut down after about 45 mins. A big arena.. Folks in the upper tiers were jumping into the lower tiers to get to the main floor .. utter chaos - interesting but the show got shut down. Frown Emoji..
	11:49am modern blaze: shots been fired here -00-
	11:51am mariano: Oh yeah, speaking of NYC nicknames, there was also Jerry Bagels in Carroll Gardens, owned Bagels by the Park on Smith. When I lived in Prospect Heights in the 90s, the nicknames were more like Beef, Trust, Universal, Bugsy, Rockefeller, Jokester.
	11:52am JakeGould: Also more on topic for “JA in the AM” listeners, “Bon Jovi washes dishes at his Soul Kitchen amid coronavirus outbreak” www.nj.com...
	11:52am morphe': Fat Vinny threw/murdered a women off tge club house roof.. After a bad accident - FV was in hospital and someone pulled out his air tube ... end of story.. out... must get some beer for breakfast.. be safe all..Thanks JA
	11:53am modern blaze: bon jovi? nah
	11:53am Earth Walker: morphe that’s funny I share a very famous name. Here in France I used it before. Asked for backstage passes and always ended up with free tickets
	11:53am bk845: I hate to tell you this, but Sullivan country doesn't want you. They issued a polite request to stay out of the county if you are not a resident.
	11:53am mariano: Take care, morphe', be careful out there.
	11:53am Doobois: Are you a resident of Sullivan County, JA? I live in Orange County (Sugar Loaf) and local media reported that Sullivan "shut its borders."
	11:53am bk845: www.recordonline.com...
	11:53am Doobois: The faster draw, bk845!
	11:54am bk845: :) Nice to meet you Doobois...Town of Warwick represent!
	11:54am Earth Walker: Morphe got the email !
	11:54am JakeGould: Also, Bandcamp is very noticeably slow today. Getting slammed by people buying on fee waiving day so the artists get 100% of the purchase.
	11:55am Doobois: Well now, just down the road a bit. Same to you, and be safe!
	11:56am modern blaze: EW on easy
	11:56am John Allen: thanks for the news Doobois. I have a place up there, guess I'm calling my town spervisor to see what's up
	👻 11:56am Handy Haversack: Gotta be in a meeting. Thanks for all, JA!
	11:56am Earth Walker: Morphe that fat vinny story sound familiar
	11:57am modern blaze: dumbo won't get it...
	11:57am Doobois: Sure thing, JA, and good idea.
	11:58am Greg from ZONE 5: Thanks, JA! Stay safe, man.
	11:58am John Allen: guess I'll need to bring my electric bill
	11:59am Earth Walker: I don’t know if the Hells Angels are like they used to be back in the 70 s
	12:00pm Doobois: Can't wait to hear the full tale next week, JA.
	12:00pm egould310: Good meowrning from Seattle, WA!
