	10:02pm Matt from New Orleans: Hi everyone
	📉 10:02pm chresti: Hi Danny and cool blues!
	10:02pm Little Danny: @Evan: so the deal with Recchion is that even by the '80s he was manipulating/remixing tapes and album tracks by people like Martin Denny, Ferrante & Teicher into real cool original ambient compositions
	10:03pm floating in∅: hey Danny and bleuets frais
	10:03pm Flash Strap: will dig in and study him then

	10:04pm Matt from New Orleans: Someone’s being tricksy tonight
	10:04pm iArtA: Gorgeous opener, like clouds bellowing slowly over the horizon at dawn, lovely Little Danny. Glad to be huddled around the cool blue flame with y'all
	10:04pm TDK60: Hello. Usually when I'm working I go to bed round 10 PM so miss most of your show. But now the world has changed drastically, no work, so I can stay up later!
	10:04pm Little Danny: His use of exotica is perhaps more pronounced in other compositions
	10:05pm Little Danny: Anyway!
	10:06pm Little Danny: Poo Bare, WR, Matt, Chresti, the artist formerly known as Coelacanth: hello!!!
	📉 10:06pm JtotheK: hi danny, hi everyone!
	10:06pm doctorjazz: Flame on!
	10:06pm Little Danny: TDK, delighted!
	10:07pm Little Danny: @iArtA: hello and thank you! Basically an extension of Evan's show, these first few tracks at least
	10:07pm coelacanth∅: i was fortunate when a"friendly acquaintance" helped me set up my computer, that was a gift and i hadn't touched for 11 months in 2011, he set me up with pandora (which had a better reputation then) and demonstrated by making me a Tom Recchion station, among others.
	10:08pm Little Danny: Heya J2tK and doc!!!
	10:08pm Little Danny: Both chresti and franco know Tom Recchion btw. I'm just a fan.
	10:09pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Danny, Tom was the first guy in L.A. to have a radio program where exotica was seriously considered.
	10:14pm coelacanth∅: Franco when was that?
	10:16pm Matt from New Orleans: Apparently Kamasi Washington was in a more recent incarnation of Mr Wilson’s orchestra according to Discogs
	10:16pm Franco Twinkie: Late '70's - early '80's. It was on KPFK on Monday nights.
	10:17pm Little Danny: I would love to have heard on of those shows, Franco. Recchion's appreciation of exotica was way before most
	10:18pm doctorjazz: Love the guitar back up on this Partner track!
	10:19pm Franco Twinkie: Oh yeah. Tom is a scholar as well as player.
	10:20pm coelacanth∅: wonder if archives exist of those shows
	10:22pm coelacanth∅: ...i also wonder if there were exotica segments on the "elevator music" radio stations my father used to listen to.
	📉 10:22pm chresti: Ask Tom if he has recordings of that time @Franco
	10:24pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, KPFK is notoriously sloppy with their archive, but for the audio spelunker it can be a real treat. Actually, now that we all have more time in our hands, some digging might be in order.
	📉 10:25pm chresti: I'm drinking from a cup Tom made.
	10:25pm Little Danny: I would be seriously interested if archives of TR's shows existed
	10:26pm coelacanth∅: i was thinking maybe he or someone else had taped some shows (like i did with fmu back in the day)
	10:27pm TDK60: ah, sounds like one of those baritone guitars, that low twang.
	10:27pm coelacanth∅: chresti, and living in the house that Tom built?
	10:28pm coelacanth∅: yeh that git was awright
	📉 10:29pm chresti: No, Franco and his dad did the house, at least parts of it.
	10:30pm Little Danny: @TDK60: It was recorded in Arizona, where that "twangy" Duane Eddy sound was partially borne (in addition to Nashville of course). Not sure if was a bari guitar or not
	10:30pm coelacanth∅: weren't "baggies" a type of bathing suit?
	10:30pm Franco Twinkie: It's funny, I see him often enough that we don't really talk about that stuff. Our conversations are usually about mundane every day stuff like health and exercise. But when we are crate digging side by side at the flea market we talk about music.
	10:31pm Little Danny: I was just gonna query this list about the meaning of "baggies" in the context of surf slang
	10:31pm Franco Twinkie: Baggies are now called board shorts.
	10:32pm coelacanth∅: in surfin' usa they say "you see 'em wearin' their baggies"
	📉 10:32pm chresti: Maybe baggies are the ones that balloon out when you get in the water.
	10:33pm Little Danny: Thanks Franco, I figgered one of you California types would know!
	10:34pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, just joining. Hi Little Danny!
	10:34pm Ignore Function: Nice segue between decades, LD.
	10:34pm Franco Twinkie: I always wore baggies while swimming, any other type of swimsuit was out of the question.
	10:35pm Little Danny: Another terrific avatar gif, ParUbi! Hi pal!
	10:36pm coelacanth∅: i just remember (with fondness!) the opening to some surf type movie my sister was watching, 100 years ago, and when that line came up in that song the screen filled up with a dancing bikini bottom (with a woman inside it) so associated that but never actually knew.
	10:36pm Little Danny: Thanks Ignore F, and thanks for noticing! I live for a solid segue
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: it was a bikini but was loose, so maybe it would balloon out in the water
	📉 10:39pm chresti: Especially with a flat...bottom.
	📉 10:41pm chresti: I love that pickin'.
	10:42pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, you just might be talking about How To Stuff A Wild Bikini! My sister and I went to see a double bill of that and Go-Go Mania in 1965. The bikini bottom what orange and animated if I remember.
	10:45pm Dean: I, too, love early J&MC, but I also remember being disappointed by the one show I attended at the Hollywood Palladium. They weren't loud enough.
	10:46pm northguineahills: You played that creations 7" June of last year. Hellos, still doing laundry as my house's washer is finally working again (randomly) for the first time in 6 weeks.
	10:46pm Matt from New Orleans: With scumbag Jimmy Savile hosting Go Go Mania
	10:47pm Franco Twinkie: The best baggies were made with garish flowery fabric, or a solid color with white horizontal stripes on the bottom of the legs.
	10:50pm coelacanth∅: Franco i remember that title. my older sister watched all of them. but it wasn't animated, and in the next line a different dancing bikini replaced her in the shot, of a different style - which is why i decided these were types of bathing suits.
	10:50pm Franco Twinkie: Yes! Jimmy Savile, with bleached blond hair. I've never seen the movie again, but I remember him introducing all the bands.
	10:51pm coelacanth∅: however, i just looked and that line is "huarachi sandals too" so there goes that theory!
	📉 10:51pm chresti: Ceramist
	10:51pm Franco Twinkie: He is also a great cook!
	10:52pm Dean: Seriously? There's something known as "space age bachelor pad music"?
	10:54pm Little Danny: Hey Dean. Yeah. It's pretty obnoxious, innit?
	10:54pm Dean: 'tis.
	10:55pm Little Danny: I forget who coined the term. It stuck, unfortunately.
	10:55pm Matt from New Orleans: www.spaceage.julianbh.com You can travel back in time to travel back in time.
	📉 10:56pm chresti: I wonder how many space age bachelors listen to it, pad music.
	10:57pm Little Danny: I forget who coined the term. Irwin would know.
	10:57pm Little Danny: If it was Byron Coley I will kill myself.
	10:57pm Little Danny: * barfs in mouth a little *
	10:58pm TDK60: It was Stereolab wasn't it? I thought it was funny.
	10:58pm coelacanth∅: i thought someone at wfmu coined it! (maybe) that was all over the station for a few years once
	10:58pm Little Danny: No, but they adopted and popularized the term
	10:59pm Franco Twinkie: We all wore huaraches with tire tread soles. I still have a pair rolling around in the bottom of the closet that I bought at the drive-in swap meet in Santa Cruz.
	10:59pm Little Danny: I still love Stereolab either way tho
	11:00pm coelacanth∅: (now i have to find out what huarache sandals look like)
	11:01pm Little Danny: Ohhh it was Byron Werner. www.chicagotribune.com... That musta been why I was thinking of Byron Coley.
	11:02pm patricknfromm: hi Danny! I've never been able to listen live - happy to be here
	11:02pm Little Danny: Patrick! Nice to see you here, buddy!
	11:05pm patricknfromm: thanks, sounding great as always!
	📉 11:06pm chresti: coel, they look like foot baskets.
	11:07pm Franco Twinkie: Think of a cartoon bandito, Coel.
	11:07pm Little Danny: Foot baskets! Amazing, chresti
	11:08pm Matt from New Orleans: Or tasty masa oblong disks covered in goodness
	11:09pm Little Danny: Thanks mate!
	11:09pm Little Danny: Surface noise alert
	📉 11:10pm chresti: Masa might be more comfortable than baskets.
	11:12pm Franco Twinkie: Yup! Huarache Azteca on York Blvd, in Highland Park fucking rules! They take along time, but every huarache is made to order, and worth the wait.
	11:12pm Dean: I'm finding lots of mid-'96 references, which suggests that Werner could have been the guy, but I kinda doubt it would have cought on within months. And yet a Billboard article from '95 gives Werner credit, but also notes that Esquivel released an album in '94 called SABPM.
	11:12pm Matt from New Orleans: This is a mod jazz classic
	11:14pm Little Danny: @Dean: right. That Esquivel comp. was where I first heard the term.
	11:14pm coelacanth∅: haha Thanks for the imagery y'all! i did look already
	11:14pm Dean: A '97 book, Cocktail Parties for Dummies (I'm embarrassed to have typed that), claims, "Space age bachelor pad music” was coined by artist Byron Werner of Los Angeles in the mid-80s to describe a genre of Eisenhower-Kennedy era instrumental pop."
	11:15pm Little Danny: Darn tootin' Matt. There are a coupla killer versions of "Feeling Good" done in the mod jazz manner from the mid- and late '60s.
	11:15pm Dean: So, we're back to mid-'80s, and Werner again.
	11:16pm Little Danny: I recall it seeming like a useful descriptor back in the day as all of "that music" was still novel to me. Now it's dated hokum.
	11:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Solid blue eyed soul
	📉 11:18pm chresti: I'm not sure I know of Bryon Werner.
	11:19pm Little Danny: Ahmad Jamal, Pat Bowie, The Frank Cunimondo Trio, Gene Russell's Trio, Sarah Cantine. They all did killer mod-ish versions. Billy Paul did an incredible slow and deep version. Obviously a fave of mine, that song.
	11:19pm coelacanth∅: hmm, what shall i wear today? will it be my beautiful huarachis? i.ebayimg.com... foot baskets technabob.com... or some tasty masa oblong discs covered in goodness? inmamamaggieskitchen.com...
	📉 11:21pm chresti: Haha, what to wear..
	11:22pm Little Danny: The Woven Man sounds like a Ray Bradbury first draft
	11:22pm Matt from New Orleans: No Ford Bronco or Running Through Airports here
	11:23pm coelacanth∅: yeah, i'm going to go with the tasty masa oblong discs. Thanks Matt!
	📉 11:23pm JtotheK: Enjoying the O'jays, this set of soul 45s - all new to me, all great!
	11:23pm coelacanth∅: (they look comfortable)
	📉 11:24pm chresti: Much more comfortable.
	11:24pm Little Danny: Thanks Jason! The O'Jays was a cover of a classic Commands track, which you should also look into if you don't know it.
	11:25pm coelacanth∅: + there're 3, so i could eat one and wear the other 2.
	11:25pm Franco Twinkie: They're not! but they look much cooler that teva sandals.
	11:25pm Matt from New Orleans: One of the earlier tracks had a little sittin vibe to it. I already forgot which one. So appropriate to go there.
	11:26pm Little Danny: Yeah, Matt, workin' a little theme here for a bit. Good ear.
	📉 11:26pm chresti: huaracheblog.files.wordpress.com...
	11:27pm coelacanth∅: oh yes Franco (i had to search that too) they're not pretty.
	11:30pm Matt from New Orleans: Every time I hear that track Danny it reminds me of the late great Bob Abrahamian.
	11:31pm Little Danny: Me too, Matt.
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: some of these huarachis are beautiful! (but ultimately i dress comfortably &/or usefully, with my attention to image limited to how to wear what is comfortable &/or useful)
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: are those your favorites chresti?
	11:35pm Matt from New Orleans: My eyes and head are telling me to stop looking at the phone and turn off the lights. I will continue to listen. Stay safe everyone.
	11:35pm Franco Twinkie: The thing about huaraches, is they are are a relic of the past that I feel no need to revisit. But who knows, with the right pair of purple and black striped pants.....
	11:35pm Dean: The '95 Billboard article quotes Irwin Chusid. What goes around comes around.
	11:37pm TDK60: Was gone for a 20 min. -late night walk. NYC's unusually quiet, a few walkers, 2 bodegas open, few cars. lots of room to walk.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: the tevas look very comfortable. somebody must be able to make a comfortable sandal that looks mostly like the huarachi, using some teva ideas.
	📉 11:40pm chresti: Night Matt. coel, they're more basket looking
	11:42pm TDK60: ..saw a bus go by, with one passenger.
	11:43pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey there
	11:44pm coelacanth∅: 'night Matt hey Phillippe
	11:45pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey coel
	11:45pm Little Danny: Hey Phillippe! Matt don't you go to sleep now
	📉 11:48pm chresti: Is there a curfew?@TDK60
	11:48pm Franco Twinkie: TDK, I saw a bus go by with the transom widows popped. You never see that here, but I imagine every one, driver included, feels like riding the bus is curtains for sure.
	📉 11:50pm chresti: Not the greatest bus service out here.
	11:52pm Kris Holmes: Great show.
	11:52pm TDK60: No curfew as far as I know. Folks still allowed out, no congregating. Some basketball hoops dismantled. I haven't been on a bus or subway in 2 weeks.
	11:54pm TDK60: ..at least the Yemeni bodega up the hill will be open all night. you know: chips, phone cards, soda, beer.
	11:54pm Little Danny: Thanks Kris! I forgot to shout you out during the Billy Stewart back-announcing
	11:55pm Little Danny: "I Like To Get Near You" is an untimely sentiment I just realized.
	11:55pm Little Danny: "Doom" on the other hand...
	11:57pm TDK60: Gracias Little Danny, pleasure to check your scene tonight.
	11:58pm Franco Twinkie: The show has been a great distraction tonight. Thanks Danny.
	11:58pm JtotheK: Thanks for the tunes Danny! Cheers everyone.
	11:59pm Kris Holmes: That was only yesterday buddy, all sense of time is out the window right now though lol
	📉 11:59pm chresti: Thanks Danny, always a compelling selection.
	📉 12:02am chresti: It's like extended jet lag @Kris
	12:02am coelacanth∅: Thanks Danny Excellent program tonight! (especially?) take care everyone (maybe i'll see you over at Nick's place)
	📉 12:03am WR: Thank Danny, your show carried to the Midnight Hour. Laters all.
	12:03am Little Danny: Thank you my friends! Love and health to all of you!
	📉 12:04am WR: Carried me....

	10:02pm Little Danny: @Evan: so the deal with Recchion is that even by the '80s he was manipulating/remixing tapes and album tracks by people like Martin Denny, Ferrante & Teicher into real cool original ambient compositions

	10:07pm coelacanth∅: i was fortunate when a"friendly acquaintance" helped me set up my computer, that was a gift and i hadn't touched for 11 months in 2011, he set me up with pandora (which had a better reputation then) and demonstrated by making me a Tom Recchion station, among others.

	10:33pm Little Danny: Thanks Franco, I figgered one of you California types would know!
	10:34pm ParUbi: Hey everyone, just joining. Hi Little Danny!
	10:34pm Ignore Function: Nice segue between decades, LD.
	10:34pm Franco Twinkie: I always wore baggies while swimming, any other type of swimsuit was out of the question.
	10:35pm Little Danny: Another terrific avatar gif, ParUbi! Hi pal!
	10:36pm coelacanth∅: i just remember (with fondness!) the opening to some surf type movie my sister was watching, 100 years ago, and when that line came up in that song the screen filled up with a dancing bikini bottom (with a woman inside it) so associated that but never actually knew.
	10:36pm Little Danny: Thanks Ignore F, and thanks for noticing! I live for a solid segue
	10:37pm coelacanth∅: it was a bikini but was loose, so maybe it would balloon out in the water
	📉 10:39pm chresti: Especially with a flat...bottom.
	📉 10:41pm chresti: I love that pickin'.
	10:42pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, you just might be talking about How To Stuff A Wild Bikini! My sister and I went to see a double bill of that and Go-Go Mania in 1965. The bikini bottom what orange and animated if I remember.
	10:45pm Dean: I, too, love early J&MC, but I also remember being disappointed by the one show I attended at the Hollywood Palladium. They weren't loud enough.
	10:46pm northguineahills: You played that creations 7" June of last year. Hellos, still doing laundry as my house's washer is finally working again (randomly) for the first time in 6 weeks.
	10:46pm Matt from New Orleans: With scumbag Jimmy Savile hosting Go Go Mania
	10:47pm Franco Twinkie: The best baggies were made with garish flowery fabric, or a solid color with white horizontal stripes on the bottom of the legs.
	10:50pm coelacanth∅: Franco i remember that title. my older sister watched all of them. but it wasn't animated, and in the next line a different dancing bikini replaced her in the shot, of a different style - which is why i decided these were types of bathing suits.
	10:50pm Franco Twinkie: Yes! Jimmy Savile, with bleached blond hair. I've never seen the movie again, but I remember him introducing all the bands.
	10:51pm coelacanth∅: however, i just looked and that line is "huarachi sandals too" so there goes that theory!
	📉 10:51pm chresti: Ceramist
	10:51pm Franco Twinkie: He is also a great cook!
	10:52pm Dean: Seriously? There's something known as "space age bachelor pad music"?
	10:54pm Little Danny: Hey Dean. Yeah. It's pretty obnoxious, innit?
	10:54pm Dean: 'tis.
	10:55pm Little Danny: I forget who coined the term. It stuck, unfortunately.
	10:55pm Matt from New Orleans: www.spaceage.julianbh.com You can travel back in time to travel back in time.
	📉 10:56pm chresti: I wonder how many space age bachelors listen to it, pad music.
	10:57pm Little Danny: I forget who coined the term. Irwin would know.
	10:57pm Little Danny: If it was Byron Coley I will kill myself.
	10:57pm Little Danny: * barfs in mouth a little *
	10:58pm TDK60: It was Stereolab wasn't it? I thought it was funny.
	10:58pm coelacanth∅: i thought someone at wfmu coined it! (maybe) that was all over the station for a few years once
	10:58pm Little Danny: No, but they adopted and popularized the term
	10:59pm Franco Twinkie: We all wore huaraches with tire tread soles. I still have a pair rolling around in the bottom of the closet that I bought at the drive-in swap meet in Santa Cruz.
	10:59pm Little Danny: I still love Stereolab either way tho
	11:00pm coelacanth∅: (now i have to find out what huarache sandals look like)
	11:01pm Little Danny: Ohhh it was Byron Werner. www.chicagotribune.com... That musta been why I was thinking of Byron Coley.
	11:02pm patricknfromm: hi Danny! I've never been able to listen live - happy to be here
	11:02pm Little Danny: Patrick! Nice to see you here, buddy!
	11:05pm patricknfromm: thanks, sounding great as always!
	📉 11:06pm chresti: coel, they look like foot baskets.
	11:07pm Franco Twinkie: Think of a cartoon bandito, Coel.
	11:07pm Little Danny: Foot baskets! Amazing, chresti
	11:08pm Matt from New Orleans: Or tasty masa oblong disks covered in goodness
	11:09pm Little Danny: Thanks mate!
	11:09pm Little Danny: Surface noise alert
	📉 11:10pm chresti: Masa might be more comfortable than baskets.
	11:12pm Franco Twinkie: Yup! Huarache Azteca on York Blvd, in Highland Park fucking rules! They take along time, but every huarache is made to order, and worth the wait.
	11:12pm Dean: I'm finding lots of mid-'96 references, which suggests that Werner could have been the guy, but I kinda doubt it would have cought on within months. And yet a Billboard article from '95 gives Werner credit, but also notes that Esquivel released an album in '94 called SABPM.
	11:12pm Matt from New Orleans: This is a mod jazz classic
	11:14pm Little Danny: @Dean: right. That Esquivel comp. was where I first heard the term.
	11:14pm coelacanth∅: haha Thanks for the imagery y'all! i did look already
	11:14pm Dean: A '97 book, Cocktail Parties for Dummies (I'm embarrassed to have typed that), claims, "Space age bachelor pad music” was coined by artist Byron Werner of Los Angeles in the mid-80s to describe a genre of Eisenhower-Kennedy era instrumental pop."
	11:15pm Little Danny: Darn tootin' Matt. There are a coupla killer versions of "Feeling Good" done in the mod jazz manner from the mid- and late '60s.
	11:15pm Dean: So, we're back to mid-'80s, and Werner again.
	11:16pm Little Danny: I recall it seeming like a useful descriptor back in the day as all of "that music" was still novel to me. Now it's dated hokum.
	11:17pm Matt from New Orleans: Solid blue eyed soul
	📉 11:18pm chresti: I'm not sure I know of Bryon Werner.
	11:19pm Little Danny: Ahmad Jamal, Pat Bowie, The Frank Cunimondo Trio, Gene Russell's Trio, Sarah Cantine. They all did killer mod-ish versions. Billy Paul did an incredible slow and deep version. Obviously a fave of mine, that song.
	11:19pm coelacanth∅: hmm, what shall i wear today? will it be my beautiful huarachis? i.ebayimg.com... foot baskets technabob.com... or some tasty masa oblong discs covered in goodness? inmamamaggieskitchen.com...
	📉 11:21pm chresti: Haha, what to wear..
	11:22pm Little Danny: The Woven Man sounds like a Ray Bradbury first draft
	11:22pm Matt from New Orleans: No Ford Bronco or Running Through Airports here
	11:23pm coelacanth∅: yeah, i'm going to go with the tasty masa oblong discs. Thanks Matt!
	📉 11:23pm JtotheK: Enjoying the O'jays, this set of soul 45s - all new to me, all great!
	11:23pm coelacanth∅: (they look comfortable)
	📉 11:24pm chresti: Much more comfortable.
	11:24pm Little Danny: Thanks Jason! The O'Jays was a cover of a classic Commands track, which you should also look into if you don't know it.
	11:25pm coelacanth∅: + there're 3, so i could eat one and wear the other 2.
	11:25pm Franco Twinkie: They're not! but they look much cooler that teva sandals.
	11:25pm Matt from New Orleans: One of the earlier tracks had a little sittin vibe to it. I already forgot which one. So appropriate to go there.
	11:26pm Little Danny: Yeah, Matt, workin' a little theme here for a bit. Good ear.
	📉 11:26pm chresti: huaracheblog.files.wordpress.com...
	11:27pm coelacanth∅: oh yes Franco (i had to search that too) they're not pretty.
	11:30pm Matt from New Orleans: Every time I hear that track Danny it reminds me of the late great Bob Abrahamian.
	11:31pm Little Danny: Me too, Matt.
	11:31pm coelacanth∅: some of these huarachis are beautiful! (but ultimately i dress comfortably &/or usefully, with my attention to image limited to how to wear what is comfortable &/or useful)
	11:32pm coelacanth∅: are those your favorites chresti?
	11:35pm Matt from New Orleans: My eyes and head are telling me to stop looking at the phone and turn off the lights. I will continue to listen. Stay safe everyone.
	11:35pm Franco Twinkie: The thing about huaraches, is they are are a relic of the past that I feel no need to revisit. But who knows, with the right pair of purple and black striped pants.....
	11:35pm Dean: The '95 Billboard article quotes Irwin Chusid. What goes around comes around.
	11:37pm TDK60: Was gone for a 20 min. -late night walk. NYC's unusually quiet, a few walkers, 2 bodegas open, few cars. lots of room to walk.
	11:37pm coelacanth∅: the tevas look very comfortable. somebody must be able to make a comfortable sandal that looks mostly like the huarachi, using some teva ideas.
	📉 11:40pm chresti: Night Matt. coel, they're more basket looking
	11:42pm TDK60: ..saw a bus go by, with one passenger.
	11:43pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey there
	11:44pm coelacanth∅: 'night Matt hey Phillippe
	11:45pm Phillippe Bastille: Hey coel
	11:45pm Little Danny: Hey Phillippe! Matt don't you go to sleep now
	📉 11:48pm chresti: Is there a curfew?@TDK60
	11:48pm Franco Twinkie: TDK, I saw a bus go by with the transom widows popped. You never see that here, but I imagine every one, driver included, feels like riding the bus is curtains for sure.
	📉 11:50pm chresti: Not the greatest bus service out here.
	11:52pm Kris Holmes: Great show.
	11:52pm TDK60: No curfew as far as I know. Folks still allowed out, no congregating. Some basketball hoops dismantled. I haven't been on a bus or subway in 2 weeks.
	11:54pm TDK60: ..at least the Yemeni bodega up the hill will be open all night. you know: chips, phone cards, soda, beer.
	11:54pm Little Danny: Thanks Kris! I forgot to shout you out during the Billy Stewart back-announcing
	11:55pm Little Danny: "I Like To Get Near You" is an untimely sentiment I just realized.
	11:55pm Little Danny: "Doom" on the other hand...
	11:57pm TDK60: Gracias Little Danny, pleasure to check your scene tonight.
	11:58pm Franco Twinkie: The show has been a great distraction tonight. Thanks Danny.
	11:58pm JtotheK: Thanks for the tunes Danny! Cheers everyone.
	11:59pm Kris Holmes: That was only yesterday buddy, all sense of time is out the window right now though lol
	📉 11:59pm chresti: Thanks Danny, always a compelling selection.
	📉 12:02am chresti: It's like extended jet lag @Kris
	12:02am coelacanth∅: Thanks Danny Excellent program tonight! (especially?) take care everyone (maybe i'll see you over at Nick's place)
	📉 12:03am WR: Thank Danny, your show carried to the Midnight Hour. Laters all.
