	7:01am leshwatt: Freaks, wonders, human curiosities and Meghan: Good morning!
	7:02am Meghan: hahaha, good morning Leshwatt!!
	7:04am Gary: Just in time to miss the Japanese track, but hear the Greek
	7:06am leshwatt: Hit after hit after hit!
	7:08am Meghan: Good morning Gary!!
	7:08am Howlin Blind Scotsman: Top'o the morning MMCK. May your day be filled with delightful piles of mushrooms and house shiye
	7:09am Meghan: Good morning HBS! Hope Jay leads you in the correct direction and avoiding sidewalk jobbies! haha
	7:17am Phillippe Bastille: Good morning. Periscope is up but the ears are definitely down below in the theme park!
	7:18am Howlin Blind Scotsman: This Alan Peters tank reminds me of a Kenyan guy called Ayub Ogada. Released one great album on Real World and did the Constant Gardner soundtrack
	7:18am Meghan: Good morning Phillippe!
	7:19am Howlin Blind Scotsman: Very folksy this morning
	7:20am Meghan: Just this set... One of those things where I came across a lot of these as "new to me" tracks. Must have been in that mood!
	7:22am leshwatt: Good vibe to go along with a nip in the air this morning
	7:24am Phillippe Bastille: Absolutely gorgeous today. Woke up early and watched the sunrise.
	7:32am Howlin Blind Scotsman: We are good British end of the world label. https://deathisnot.bandcamp.com/
	7:33am Phillippe Bastille: I like Sharon Van Etten's version of End of the World
	7:33am leshwatt: Theme of the day, Meghan? Like the old UTP show....
	7:34am Meghan: Ha, just for a set... I almost went down the rabbit hole, but thought it might be a bit too much doom and gloom!
	7:35am StringOFperils: Good morning, Meghan and underwater campers. TGIF.
	7:36am Meghan: good morning StringOFperils!
	7:38am leshwatt: No End of the World set is complete without a little Cave
	7:39am Meghan: Well you know me.... I can't resist!
	7:51am Howlin Blind Scotsman: Has anyone read Chris Frantz's book yet? I want to but he seems to spend every interview talking about how he hates David Byrne. It puts me off
	7:55am StringOFperils: I got to go up north a bit last week to a borrowed cottage, on a lake. Watched the Perseid meteor shower. Beautiful. I think it's the first time I've seen the night sky since sometime in the 1990s. O modernity.......
	7:55am Phillippe Bastille: Ha, I'm with you! Never understood the appeal of jam bands. I soooo tried to get into the Dead because I have a lot of friends who were into it back in the day. Just. Could. Not.
	7:55am Meghan: I knew the book was out but hadn't heard any interviews or reviews. I can understand why that would put you off...
	7:56am Meghan: Oh that sounds like perfection StringOFperils.... a lake house retreat.... soak it all in!
	7:57am Howlin Blind Scotsman: Jam bands have no soul. It’s as simple as that
	7:57am Phillippe Bastille: I did like the tie dyes, however
	7:58am Meghan: hahaha, the apparel! too funny!
	8:01am Meghan: I think it's also the fan base that turned me off... and most likely before I ever listened to the band....
	8:04am Howlin Blind Scotsman: Also if your music comes with a tie-dye teddy bear with the logo on it you can Count me out
	8:05am Ken From Hyde Park: Good morning, Meghan, the fishin' DJ!
	8:06am Meghan: good morning Ken!
	8:07am StringOFperils: Maybe jam bands (and 17 minute drum solos) were put here to make us better appreciate the musics that we really DO like. And maybe, if that frisbee-launching tie-died ectomorph doesn't seem to be me, then, that also could be instructive. Just cogitatin' here.....
	8:11am Howlin Blind Scotsman: I now go help Jobby Jay launch a missile. Thanks for the great start to the day M
	8:14am leshwatt: I’m a Deadhead from way back, loved the scene until it became big and bloated and popular. Jam band phenomenon took off from there. From honest and humble beginnings....... Those old shows in small places sure were fun
	8:16am Meghan: Leshwatt, I think that is for most bands.... small shows are always the best. Hope the small venues can make it through all this....
	8:19am leshwatt: Loud bands in small rooms. Grimey floors. Clanking beer bottles heard between songs. Sweaty mash of people up front. Cool night air filtering through near the exits. Miss it Meghan!
	8:20am WR: Connected and floating along on this nouveau psychedelic set. Next step..... caffeine?
	8:21am Meghan: Hey there WR! caffeine is always a good choice!
	8:21am StringOFperils: I've never paid much attention to the Dead's touring scene, but I grew to like their music a lot, over quite a long time. I like bluegrass, and older country music, and psychedelic studio sorcery, and poetry. I like them. To tell the truth, I'm not really clear about what constitutes a 'jam band'? I think it means something like Dave Matthews, but I'm not sure. I should try to be there for UM later.
	8:24am leshwatt: StringOFperils, Garcia/Hunter one of the best songwriting duos in my opinion. Weir/Barlow not too shabby either.
	8:30am Phillippe Bastille: I sorta felt like the instrumental breaks were designed so the musicians would stop playing when they got bored, which was usually about 5 minutes after I got bored. I hope that doesn't sound as judgmental as it probably is.
	8:31am Phillippe Bastille: Love this Carla Del Forno. Hard pressed to say if I've ever disliked anything she did
	8:33am Meghan: StringOFperils- I'd say the Dead were the top of the jam band spectrum... with songs going on for 20 minutes, like an instrumental gap where they can freeform their music. I just found that it sounded like they forgot what they were playing. For modern, you then get to Phish, who have a similar following
	8:33am leshwatt: The music always worked better live, in a roomful of like minded people. The groove in the audience was almost as important as the groove on the stage. Wasn’t quite the same listening to the long jam s in your living room maybe
	8:34am leshwatt: Thanks guys, off to work!!
	8:35am Meghan: I will say that I do like the stuff that Garcia did with the bluegrass and sea shanties....
	8:35am Webhamster Henry: This tune is waq!
	8:35am Meghan: one day left of work leshwatt! You got this!
	8:35am Meghan: hahaha, good morning Webhamster Henry! good one
	8:35am StringOFperils: See you leshwatt ! Have a good one !
	8:36am Doug Schulkind: Grateful Dead fans (and those who are Grateful Dead-adjacent fans), you're in for a special treat today on the Drummer Stream. Uncle Michael will be presenting a 4-hour Greateful Dead Dance Party as he takes over the Drummer Stream Discotheque today, following his usual Hinky Dinky Time! (All assuming his home internet gets fixed!)
	8:43am StringOFperils: No skullls and roses on this set. Minty fresh !
	8:44am Webhamster Henry: More Hilda for summer activity inspiration: www.boredpanda.com...
	8:46am Meghan: Oh that is a great collection of Hilda's! She's so great
	8:50am Doug Schulkind: The Drummer Stream fun continues today! 9 to noon (ET): GIVE THE DRUMMER SOME Live from Pittsburgh, PA with some random dude PLAYLIST: wfmu.org...

	8:53am Doug Schulkind: We've got hoagies and grinders, but no subs.
	8:56am WR: Songs?, it's all a jam man. Keep it going.
	8:56am norman douglas: for what it's worth, i totally concur with your first dead song calculation. sigh...
	8:56am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Meghan. Make sure to keep the postcard rack in the UTP gift shop fully stocked ... support the post office!
	8:57am StringOFperils: Thank you Meghan.
	9:11am WR: Thank you.
	1:18pm Leeny: ...great show.....good "depth in variety of music"!
