	9:02am Chris Albertyn: Good morning Doug and drummers - no miseltoe here Brian. Everyone is safe

	9:04am TDK60: Good morning Squirrel Hill!
	9:04am Spinning Giant: Gregory, perfect man, perfect - hope you don't mind if I get out the spade and follow suit
	9:05am Spinning Giant: Bonjour mon beau Doug :D
	9:05am coelacanth∅: good morning Doug, y'all
	9:05am Funky16Corners: Morning!
	9:05am TDK60: Ahh yes, heard about the mistletoe industry layoffs.
	9:06am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning Doug, Crew, folks! Happy Hanukkah everybody!
	🥁 9:06am Artie: Ready for my weekly drumming!
	9:06am Really Lisa: Hello Doug and all. Happy to be listening!
	9:06am Maggie B.: Good morning Drummers in Pittsburgh and everywhere!
	9:06am KWilde: Good morning Doug and fellow drummers!
	9:07am Gina Bacon: Morning, Doug and Drummerstreamers!
	9:07am Spinning Giant: or should I be sayin "Top o the marnin ta ya boyo"
	9:08am Irene: Looks like there won’t be mistletoe or a tree in this house unless I can find something cheaper outside NYC. Yesterday we passed by a typical street vendor, whose small-ish trees were in the $70-$90 range.
	9:10am Spinning Giant: now that's one lively goose, I'll say!
	9:10am Doug Schulkind: So freaking chuffed to see ya, Artie! TDK60! coelacanth∅! Funky16Corners! Pauly from CLifton! Really Lisa! Mama Maggie B! Gina Bacon! KWilde!
	9:10am TDK60: Irene, I've noticed over years some of the holiday tree sales folk are from Quebec.
	9:10am Listener Gregory: @Spinning Giant, be my guest: There's plenty to shovel, that's for sure.
	9:10am Gina Bacon: Yikes, Irene!
	9:11am Spinning Giant: Gregory LoL :D))))))))))))))))))))))))
	9:11am mauri: Jig is in the air. Hey there Doug and drummahs
	🥁 9:11am Brian in UK: Irene that is shocking, we managed to get one for half that price and as tall as fifteen leprechauns standing on each others shoulders.
	9:11am Listener Gregory: My local news said that Christmas trees are selling faster than usual. The suggestion is that more people are digging in at home.
	9:12am Spinning Giant: Brian - whats the standard ratio for conversion of leprechauns to imperial (or metric) - just wondering how many could stack themselves comfortably in my lil sapin...
	9:13am Maggie B.: Bill just said he's picturing you Riverdancing, Doug.
	🥁 9:13am Brian in UK: @Spinning Giant, weeeellll, how long is a piece of string?
	9:13am TDK60: I'm investigating eggnog futures..
	9:13am Doug Schulkind: @Maggie B The image burns. IT BURNS! Hello today, to mauri!
	9:14am Spinning Giant: Brian, touche and teehee pollywollydoodledallydingdongday
	9:14am Irene: Those prices seem to be typical. The trees bigger than tabletop sized were $125 and up. I always wrestle with the idea of not putting one up (no kids in our household) but this might be the year I stop.
	9:16am coelacanth∅: i sometimes decorate with lights and green garland but have never gotten a tree.
	🥁 9:16am Brian in UK: Irene, cheaper to buy a chain saw and head out to the woods.
	9:17am Maggie B.: Irene, years ago we got an artificial "pencil tree" at some tiny outlet in Kingston - it was $1 a foot. I paid $6 for it and it's nearly 20 years old, still looks good.
	9:18am Doug Schulkind: We used to live in an Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn. The tree-seller at the end of our block was an aging wise guy who saw them fall off the back of a truck. He used to give us a discount because he liked my wife's hats.
	9:18am coelacanth∅: (buy the chainsaw, and plant 5 fast-growing pines or firs in your yard, and then 1/year)
	9:19am Maggie B.: things are always falling off the backs of trucks in - let me guess - Carroll Gardens?
	🥁 9:20am Brian in UK: Not heard fall off the back of a lorry/truck in the longest time.
	9:20am coelacanth∅: they just don't make trucks like they used to
	9:20am Irene: Maggie B, sounds like a good idea. Some years ago I had a Ficus tree that I used to decorate. Maybe it’s time to get another.
	9:20am Funky16Corners: In the NY/NJ area things are falling off the backs of trucks constantly
	🥁 9:21am Brian in UK: Must be very hilly.
	9:21am Doug Schulkind: @Maggie B Carroll Gardens indeed!
	9:22am Really Lisa: So many trucks in my NJ area they seem to be falling off trees. <sits back down>
	9:22am Doug Schulkind: VERY safe neighborhood.
	9:22am coelacanth∅: a quick look at pencil trees (which i'd never heard of) says $66.-$263.
	9:22am Maggie B.: also, "fell off the back of a truck" central
	9:23am coelacanth∅: Lisa hahaha
	9:24am Webhamster Henry: I'm enjoying this set! GIVE THE FIDDLER SOME!
	9:24am Maggie B.: coelacanth∅ - WOW! I really got lucky, I guess. It's a really pretty tree and resembles the evergreens you see in Oregon and Washington.
	🥁 9:25am Brian in UK: Looks like we are leaving the European Union with no deal, bugger all trade agreements and increasing tariffs. 'Take back control', my arse. I hear Canada is cold this time of year.
	9:25am Doug Schulkind: The wise-guy tree seller on my block was also part of the operation selling armloads of whatever the hottest toys of the Xmas season were that year. They sold them in the back of the bagel store next to the lot with the trees. People dashing in for the Everything with a shmear, and a Cabbage Patch Doll. Hilarious!
	9:26am coelacanth∅: i see some for 40 bucks now. it doesn't say how tall it is but looks like about 5-6"...unless they're using miniature furniture for the display
	9:27am WR: The fiddlers of Sligo are known throughout the world because they've traveled around the world in search of a good day's pay.
	🥁 9:27am Brian in UK: Sounds a bit like Spinal Tap's Stonehenge!
	9:27am coelacanth∅: i'll agree you're lucky Maggie!
	9:28am TDK60: True story, long ago an older relative of mine dismissed a great grandparent of Irish extraction whom I was curious about, as "just a fiddler."
	9:28am Webhamster Henry: My father famously stole a tree off a lot on Christmas eve.
	9:28am Webhamster Henry: I like that these were all fiddle solos and not buried in a mix.
	9:29am BillD: Greetings from Orange County, NY, to Allegheny County Ireland!
	9:29am Martinibomb: My Dad would always blast The Grey Goose loud on the weekend mornings to wake us kids up
	9:30am Spinning Giant: MartiniBomb - that's awesome
	🥁 9:31am Brian in UK: Doug, would you prefer Celtic Furrow.
	9:31am Really Lisa: coel @ 9:26, 40 bucks isn't too deer. <sorry>
	9:31am Spinning Giant: Walk-a-Lock-Gabbin...? Sounds like fun...how do we play...?
	9:33am bigplanetnoise: Good morning, Doug and Drummertrees...
	🥁 9:33am doctorjazz: Happy Friday!
	9:34am Gina Bacon: Morning, bigplanetnoise! Coffee?
	9:34am prudy: thanks for the humor Doug...needed now more than ever...
	9:34am coelacanth∅: i stole a small evergreen with a big rootball (replantable xmas tree) to give to my father as a xmas present when i was around 18. i justified the theft in some way but i'm not proud of that now
	🥁 9:34am βrian: [Tune into the Drummer Stream]: "Aw, fuck 'em." Well, ok then!
	9:35am bigplanetnoise: Morning, Gfb - yes, please, please...
	9:35am Gina Bacon: I've got plenty! And it's cold. And I have lots of ice!
	9:36am Doug Schulkind: Top o' the morning, Webhamster Henry! Martinibomb! BillD! WR! bigplanetnoise! prudy!
	9:36am coelacanth∅: Lisa yes 40's okay. it looks decent in the picture
	9:37am davefromtoronto: affiliate of W.O.L.D
	🥁 9:37am Brian in UK: Me 'n the beagle is taking a walk afore darkness falls.
	9:38am Webhamster Henry: @Dave/Toronto Both in Cumulus Radio now.
	9:40am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK My first dog was a beagle. She was my 10th birthday present. She was an awful good dog.
	9:40am Really Lisa: Fair I think, coel. Not big into decorating here tbh.
	9:41am davefromtoronto: we have a beago - ever heard of that mix?
	9:42am Spinning Giant: DaveTO - nope...qu'est-ce-que c'est?
	9:42am Doug Schulkind: Howdy, davefromtoronto!
	9:43am Doug Schulkind: I could do a set (a whole show?) of songs about things happening in motel rooms.
	9:44am davefromtoronto: hey guys - it's a beagle and golden retriever - and all 10 pups were pure black!
	🥁 9:44am βrian: My spouse snagged a beautiful fresh tree outside a law firm some years ago. Their party as early and they pitched it afterward. That was a coup. She was like a triumphant beaver returning from the kill.
	9:45am Jeff g. via app: Has there been a country song about alternate side parking yet?
	9:46am coelacanth∅: Lisa i can relate. i use "christmas" lights year-round though, so one could say i've pre-decorated! ...my only acknowledgement of xmas for a few years now is going to the bar for the party there. probably wont do that this year though.
	🥁 9:46am βrian: There used to be an establishment outside Chesaning, MI, called the Notel Motel.
	9:46am KWilde: Always love your country sets Doug
	9:46am Doug Schulkind: @Jeff g. via app Sounds right up Tom T. Hall's alley!
	9:47am Jeff g. via app: “I waited for you from Thursday at 9:30 to 11, but all I got was this ticket to heaven.”
	9:48am Doug Schulkind: @KWilde It's like having someone read a cheap novel to you. Except they're singing. It. To you.
	9:48am Gina Bacon: I love these sad songs.
	🥁 9:50am dutchtheo: Howdy, Doug, drummers! I had to pick up Harry...
	9:51am Doug Schulkind: @Gina Bacon Sad songs with spoken recitations in the middle. The best! dutchtheo: the best!
	9:52am prudy: this set is weirdly soothing...
	9:52am Listener Gregory: @Jeff g, a friend of mine was moving into a Manhattan apartment. His moving truck took up a number of spaces. Someone drove up and asked how long they would be unpacking: over 2 hours, probably. "OK, thanks," the guy said, and double-parked next to the truck and opened up a newspaper, waiting for the space to be released. That was my friend's introduction to NYC.
	9:53am BillD: Country music the way it ought be and should be.
	9:53am bigplanetnoise: I could go for a set (show? week?) of country tunes about coffee.....
	9:53am Really Lisa: Exactly, coel. Plus this year I seem unable to not be annoyed, particularly at extended family members who post on social media, 'life is good, I'm sitting here enjoying <such and such meal or holiday treat>'. I'm not past the pandemic. My dad is gone from covid (that post was his only surviving sister) I'm not loaded with good tidings and cheer. Not meaning to be a downer. Just not good at 'tis the season 2020.
	9:53am prudy: but then again, I'm an aging white girl...
	9:53am Doug Schulkind: @prudy I agree completely. A nice infusion of "someone else has always got it worse" energy.
	9:53am Irene Trudel: Jeff g., parking has gotten pretty sad in NYC lately. A sad Country song is def needed.
	9:54am Doug Schulkind: @bigplanetnoise Make if coffee with suds and you've got a deal.
	9:55am prudy: Really Lisa: sorry for your loss...I've always hated the often fake cheer of the holidays...
	🥁 9:55am βrian: Is Covid Country a sub-genre yet?
	9:55am Irene Trudel: So sorry, Really Lisa! Family can sometimes be insensitive.
	9:57am Really Lisa: Thank you, prudy! From one aging white girl to another. Thank you, too, Irene! Yeah I wonder how one can seem so disconnected. Maybe it's her only way of coping? But think before posting, right?!
	9:58am coelacanth∅: Lisa i know you've had it particularly rough this year i can easily understand all of that being processed into anger. it's better than falling apart.
	🥁 9:59am βrian: I think we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission where the Covidiots can step up, come clean, and make amends.
	10:00am Spinning Giant: "Mopeytown" ...always a choice destination...
	10:00am Really Lisa: Thanks, coel! I realize anger isn't necessarily productive, but yeah, better than the alternative. I have thought of not getting out of bed.. but need my income!
	10:02am TDK60: I'm conflicted: I kind of support the so-called War on Christmas but I love evergreen shrubbery and elves. Help!
	10:03am Doug Schulkind: I'm so so sorry, Really Lisa. Just awful. We, your radio family, love you.
	10:05am TDK60: Yes Really Lisa, condolences again. Just trying to be funny or at least silly (in 2020 AD).
	10:05am Doug Schulkind: Music from the revolutionary wing of the MPLA Youth fighting the liberation good fight in Angola!
	10:05am coelacanth∅: your aunt's seeming attitude is understandable but her behavior is insensitive -in my opinion. - i say understandable not because i'm okay with it - it's sad...but because of how many times i've witnessed siblings that didn't even communicate with each-other for years, or for the last decades of their lives. (ie) my father didn't seem to give a crap when his twin sister died. (also his only sibling)
	10:09am coelacanth∅: TDK i certainly don't have a war on xmas! i love certain things about it. every 2-3 years i think okay i'm decorating this year; then time slips away and i don't. - but not because of humbug!
	10:10am coelacanth∅: (okay, getting back to work now)
	🥁 10:10am sinner: Love the Semba / Rebita, etc. all styles.
	10:11am Doug Schulkind: Sad pop from Angola is the saddest pop. So fucking sad!
	10:12am Doug Schulkind: @sinner We converge!
	🥁 10:12am βrian: We have a somewhat newly adopted daughter, so that's prodded us to make some modest efforts at seasonal decoration. But we do like to keep it glitz-free.
	10:14am Listener Gregory: From Wikipedia, re: Angola revolutionaries: In 1971, while on tour with the Ornette Coleman Quartet in Portugal (at the time under a fascist dictatorship), Haden dedicated a performance of his "Song for Che" to the anticolonialist revolutionaries in the Portuguese colonies of Mozambique, Angola, and Guinea. The following day, he was detained at Lisbon Airport, jailed, and interrogated by the DGS, the Portuguese secret police. He was only released after Ornette Coleman and others complained to the American cultural attaché, and he was later interviewed in the United States by the FBI about his choice of dedication.
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: We hang a string of the tiniest white Xmas lights on our front porch. But they stay there all year.
	10:16am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Check out Charlie Haden's "For a Free Portugal." The track incorporates sounds of bombing and liberation fighting.
	🥁 10:16am doctorjazz: This Pedro Lima track is lovely.
	10:17am Listener Gregory: Doug, I know it well.
	10:17am TDK60: Listener Gregory: the audio of his talk is on one of his Liberation Orch. albums I think. The portuguese audience applauded wildly; obviously supporters of the liberation struggles in Africa.
	10:17am Really Lisa: Thank you coel, TDK, Doug, very much appreciated. I most def wouldn't have fared as well this year w/o a bunch of these shows, listener chats, djs... 💗
	10:18am Doug Schulkind: @doctorjazz Pedro Lima's well-earned moniker from his homeland (Sao Tomé): The Voice of the People. There was no more beloved on the island.
	10:19am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory What a chilling story and what a huge middle finger of a song from Mr. Haden.
	10:20am Doug Schulkind: I believe this music style from Sao Tomé is called puxa.
	10:21am TDK60: Sorry, it was C. Haden's "Closeness" album, a record of duets. "Free Portugal" was with drummer Paul Motian.
	🥁 10:26am βrian: Angola, Indiana was named after Angola, NY, which was named after ... Angola.
	10:26am Listener Gregory: Doug, Sonny knows you only talk over the greatest. Also, has anyone heard this new Sonny Rollins release of a trio concert in Holland, 1967, w/Han Bennink on drums?
	10:27am Uncle Michael: I can't find the mylar bag I was going to wear today!
	10:28am Gina Bacon: No, I'm in an actual house now! Thank you, Doug!!
	10:32am Doug Schulkind: I cling to the image of you in your attic, Gina! But I'm glad you're back on terra firma.
	10:32am Doug Schulkind: @Uncle Michael Here, you can use my lar bag.
	10:33am Doug Schulkind: I wanna start a band called Lardbag.
	10:34am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory I just wrapped a white-knuckle, vice-like grip around my digital copy of that new Sonny Rollins! And I've got the new Mingus, too.
	10:34am Doug Schulkind: Donald Byrd is your trumpetist here!
	🥁 10:35am βrian: I once flew Aer Mingus.
	10:35am TDK60: Happy Hannukah. And in Geneva, happy Escalade Day.
	10:37am Jeff Golick: @βrian: where cats who can use the lavatory fly free.
	10:37am Doug Schulkind: Phil Woods on this cut does nothing to dispel the impression most formed that he was a big fat Charlie Parker imitator.
	10:42am Irene Trudel: @Doug, I've been enjoying the show as I putter around this morning, but now must drop off to do work. Carry on!
	10:42am Funky16Corners: Who’s playing organ on this Braith session?
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: @Irene Put down your putter and pick up your wedge. #golfhumor
	10:43am Listener Gregory: @Doug, please give us a review of the Rollins when you hear it. As to Phil Woods, I think he had his own recognizable style, albeit heavily indebted to Bird. Many tried to imitate Parker, but few actually succeeded well enough to make good music. In my humble opinion!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: @Funky16Corners Billy Gardner was on organ. Grant Green on guitar! Now everyone, without Googling, try to guess who is on alto sax here playing alongside Gene Ammons' tenor sax!!!
	10:45am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory I generally give Phil Woods a break, but I thought his Parkersonian imitation on that cut was absurdly unabashed.
	10:47am Listener Gregory: I've been listening to a lot of Oliver Nelson big-band projects, and Phil Woods is usually the best player in them. They're not so straightforward be-bop, so that may help.
	10:47am Doug Schulkind: Rudy Van Gelder going heavy with the reverb on Jug's tenor sax here. I LOVE it.
	10:48am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	10:49am Doug Schulkind: @LG Those Oliver Nelson dates are chockfull of surprises.
	10:49am Doug Schulkind: Guess the alto sax player here!!! Good morning to you, chresti!
	10:49am Listener Gregory: Is it John Coltrane??????????
	10:49am Jeff Golick: So sweeeeeeeeet.
	10:50am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Yesirree!
	10:51am Listener Gregory: Incredible. I don't think I've heard this.
	10:51am Doug Schulkind: Coltrane is playing in alto here, but he's dreaming in soprano.
	10:52am Doug Schulkind: And get this... MAL WALDRON on piano!
	10:52am Jeff Golick: Ammons + Coltrane represents a whole lot of history in one cut.
	10:54am Doug Schulkind: This record was cut in 1958, but Prestige held it for release until Ammons was released from prison (for a drug offense) in 1960.
	10:59am Listener Gregory: Anyone who knows some jazz history is faced with the massive racial unfairness of the "war on drugs," via how it ruined the lives of mostly Black artists.
	11:01am Jeff Golick: That's a good music bed right there.
	11:02am Doug Schulkind: Super high thread-count on that talkover track, Jeff Golick!
	11:03am Funky16Corners: This reminds me of Ivy
	11:03am Doug Schulkind: The accompanying video for this Laura Veirs number is enchanting. I normally don't give two shits about music videos. But since I adore everything Laura Veirs does...
	🥁 11:05am βrian: It was years before I realized what folks were referring to when they mentioned "Empty V."
	11:05am Doug Schulkind: New one from Lavender Diamond. Just released on December 4. The incandescent voice of Becky Stark. What a beautiful thing of beautiful beauty.
	🥁 11:06am Brian in UK: Two Shits About Music was my first.........
	🥁 11:06am βrian: A duo, I presume.
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK I like the way you think, Sir.
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: @βrian Our first LP was titled Number Two.
	11:07am TDK60: Not so into music vidz either. I do like some Scandanavian conductor hovering over a Bruckner symphony, though.
	11:09am chresti: There is a shitload of 2020 music.
	11:11am chresti: TDK60, pardon my french \\ //
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Laura Veirs: lauraveirs.bandcamp.com... Lavender Diamond: lavenderdiamondband.bandcamp.com... Kathleen Edwards: kathleenedwards.bandcamp.com...
	🥁 11:11am βrian: What kind of parade, now?
	11:11am TDK60: Hi chresti; not at work? \\ //
	🥁 11:12am Brian in UK: chresti, it is Blaspheme Friday, no problem.
	11:13am chresti: Today is my day off, TDK. thank you Brian in UK.
	🥁 11:13am bobdc: A well-timed WFMU pledge drive contribution won me this Lucinda WIlliams album!
	11:13am Funky16Corners: Lucinda sounding like Marianne Faithful!
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: @bobdc No time is a bad time for Lucinda. Or a pledge. (Thanks, mate.)
	11:15am Doug Schulkind: @Funky16Corners A lotta miles on their respective pipes.
	11:16am prudy: love this Williams record...
	11:18am Doug Schulkind: @prudy So wide and deep this.
	11:19am Listener Gregory: Good soils are as important as good souls in the long run.
	11:19am Doug Schulkind: Lucinda Williams: www.lucindawilliams.com Emma Swift: emmaswift.bandcamp.com...
	🥁 11:19am βrian: Is this a follow-on to the night soils?
	11:20am Doug Schulkind: Emma Swift has a the most wonderful cat sitter.
	11:22am Listener Gregory: @βrian, oof! That suggests a band title... Captain Dirt and the Night Soils? Have to work on it.
	11:23am Doug Schulkind: There is little truth to the rumor that Emma Swift paid $300 million for the rights to release this album of Dylan covers.
	11:25am Doug Schulkind: Bless you Emma for covering all 11-plus minutes of this one. Very few have attempted it.
	🥁 11:29am Brian in UK: Robyn Hitchcock paid for it!!
	11:29am Uncle Michael: Only about 20 covers of this. Not many for a Dylan classic.
	11:29am Doug Schulkind: Robyn Hitchcock also has the most wonderful cat sitter.
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: @Uncle Michael Exactly.
	🥁 11:30am Brian in UK: Been enjoying Lucinda's music for close on thirty years but here voice is getting between me and the songs nowadays.
	11:30am Listener Gregory: Interesting that she also covers a song from Dylan's most recent album: I Contain Multitudes.
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Give it time. It will grow on you.
	11:31am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Veerrry interesting.
	11:33am Listener Gregory: The good earth appreciates all typos, Doug.
	🥁 11:34am Brian in UK: The Good Earth was...... Ah better put the chickens away.
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: I typographically soiled myself. Literally.
	🥁 11:37am βrian: Compost those typos. Don't throw them away.
	🥁 11:37am Brian in UK: Doug, so you do give two shits?
	11:39am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Simultaneously.
	11:41am Listener Gregory: Wow! Floyd Smith totally Bobby "Blue" Blanded me on that one. Impressive.
	11:41am Funky16Corners: Killing it with the soul set!
	11:44am Doug Schulkind: @Funky16Corners You saying that is like Julia Child saying "delicious."
	11:45am TDK60: That Diamond Joe track, kind of 45 that would jump out of those big old jukeboxes.
	11:45am Uncle Michael: Lucinda could have absolutely released an album called Good Soils.
	11:46am Funky16Corners: Diamond Joe was one of the great New Orleans singers.
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: Sprung from the loamy earth like a towering beanstock for Jack to shimmy, it's HINKY DINKY TIME with your lead horticulturist Uncle Michael. Let him plant some songs in your brain! Top of the hour! Happening right here: wfmu.org...
	🥁 11:47am Brian in UK: Doctor: Do you have a bowel movement everyday? Patient: Yes regularly at 7:30. Trouble is I don't get up until 8 o'clock.
	🥁 11:48am Brian in UK: Great show, Doug (sidles out the side door)
	11:49am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Heading out to the garden for some trowel movements?
	11:49am JtotheK: Great tune, this. Hi Doug hi everyone.
	11:49am Listener Gregory: It has gotten too cold to stay in my study, so I am going out into the colder outdoors to take a walk. That will warm me up. Thanks for an excellent show, Doug! You have left a lot of nutrients for future growth.
	11:52am Doug Schulkind: Hey hey, JtotheK!!! @Listener Gregory Did you kill Colonel Mustard in the study with a candlestick?
	11:52am wendy del formaggio: Hi Doug. I’ve been listening + working, thus = lurking. Thank you for the fine tunes.
	11:54am TDK60: Gracias DJ DS!
	🥁 11:55am dutchtheo: Thanks, Doug! Delicious! with a Julia Child voice
	11:55am Doug Schulkind: @wendy del formaggio We have a half-price lurking special here at GTDS.
	11:55am Uncle Michael: ME NEXT! wfmu.org...
	11:55am Doug Schulkind: @dutchtheo I smell the schnapps on your breath.
	11:56am Uncle Michael: Thank you, Doug!
	11:57am Doug Schulkind: Thank you, Uncle.
	11:57am chresti: Thanks Doug!
	🥁 11:58am Kevin Nutt: Isn't "Lurking" a sharp cheddar from Galicia?

	9:04am TDK60: Good morning Squirrel Hill!
	9:04am Spinning Giant: Gregory, perfect man, perfect - hope you don't mind if I get out the spade and follow suit
	9:05am Spinning Giant: Bonjour mon beau Doug :D
	9:05am coelacanth∅: good morning Doug, y'all
	9:05am Funky16Corners: Morning!
	9:05am TDK60: Ahh yes, heard about the mistletoe industry layoffs.
	9:06am Pauly from Clifton: Good morning Doug, Crew, folks! Happy Hanukkah everybody!
	🥁 9:06am Artie: Ready for my weekly drumming!
	9:06am Really Lisa: Hello Doug and all. Happy to be listening!
	9:06am Maggie B.: Good morning Drummers in Pittsburgh and everywhere!
	9:06am KWilde: Good morning Doug and fellow drummers!
	9:07am Gina Bacon: Morning, Doug and Drummerstreamers!
	9:07am Spinning Giant: or should I be sayin "Top o the marnin ta ya boyo"
	9:08am Irene: Looks like there won’t be mistletoe or a tree in this house unless I can find something cheaper outside NYC. Yesterday we passed by a typical street vendor, whose small-ish trees were in the $70-$90 range.
	9:10am Spinning Giant: now that's one lively goose, I'll say!
	9:10am Doug Schulkind: So freaking chuffed to see ya, Artie! TDK60! coelacanth∅! Funky16Corners! Pauly from CLifton! Really Lisa! Mama Maggie B! Gina Bacon! KWilde!
	9:10am TDK60: Irene, I've noticed over years some of the holiday tree sales folk are from Quebec.
	9:10am Listener Gregory: @Spinning Giant, be my guest: There's plenty to shovel, that's for sure.
	9:10am Gina Bacon: Yikes, Irene!
	9:11am Spinning Giant: Gregory LoL :D))))))))))))))))))))))))
	9:11am mauri: Jig is in the air. Hey there Doug and drummahs
	🥁 9:11am Brian in UK: Irene that is shocking, we managed to get one for half that price and as tall as fifteen leprechauns standing on each others shoulders.
	9:11am Listener Gregory: My local news said that Christmas trees are selling faster than usual. The suggestion is that more people are digging in at home.
	9:12am Spinning Giant: Brian - whats the standard ratio for conversion of leprechauns to imperial (or metric) - just wondering how many could stack themselves comfortably in my lil sapin...
	9:13am Maggie B.: Bill just said he's picturing you Riverdancing, Doug.
	🥁 9:13am Brian in UK: @Spinning Giant, weeeellll, how long is a piece of string?
	9:13am TDK60: I'm investigating eggnog futures..
	9:13am Doug Schulkind: @Maggie B The image burns. IT BURNS! Hello today, to mauri!
	9:14am Spinning Giant: Brian, touche and teehee pollywollydoodledallydingdongday
	9:14am Irene: Those prices seem to be typical. The trees bigger than tabletop sized were $125 and up. I always wrestle with the idea of not putting one up (no kids in our household) but this might be the year I stop.
	9:16am coelacanth∅: i sometimes decorate with lights and green garland but have never gotten a tree.
	🥁 9:16am Brian in UK: Irene, cheaper to buy a chain saw and head out to the woods.
	9:17am Maggie B.: Irene, years ago we got an artificial "pencil tree" at some tiny outlet in Kingston - it was $1 a foot. I paid $6 for it and it's nearly 20 years old, still looks good.
	9:18am Doug Schulkind: We used to live in an Italian neighborhood in Brooklyn. The tree-seller at the end of our block was an aging wise guy who saw them fall off the back of a truck. He used to give us a discount because he liked my wife's hats.
	9:18am coelacanth∅: (buy the chainsaw, and plant 5 fast-growing pines or firs in your yard, and then 1/year)
	9:19am Maggie B.: things are always falling off the backs of trucks in - let me guess - Carroll Gardens?
	🥁 9:20am Brian in UK: Not heard fall off the back of a lorry/truck in the longest time.
	9:20am coelacanth∅: they just don't make trucks like they used to
	9:20am Irene: Maggie B, sounds like a good idea. Some years ago I had a Ficus tree that I used to decorate. Maybe it’s time to get another.
	9:20am Funky16Corners: In the NY/NJ area things are falling off the backs of trucks constantly
	🥁 9:21am Brian in UK: Must be very hilly.
	9:21am Doug Schulkind: @Maggie B Carroll Gardens indeed!
	9:22am Really Lisa: So many trucks in my NJ area they seem to be falling off trees. <sits back down>
	9:22am Doug Schulkind: VERY safe neighborhood.
	9:22am coelacanth∅: a quick look at pencil trees (which i'd never heard of) says $66.-$263.
	9:22am Maggie B.: also, "fell off the back of a truck" central
	9:23am coelacanth∅: Lisa hahaha
	9:24am Webhamster Henry: I'm enjoying this set! GIVE THE FIDDLER SOME!
	9:24am Maggie B.: coelacanth∅ - WOW! I really got lucky, I guess. It's a really pretty tree and resembles the evergreens you see in Oregon and Washington.
	🥁 9:25am Brian in UK: Looks like we are leaving the European Union with no deal, bugger all trade agreements and increasing tariffs. 'Take back control', my arse. I hear Canada is cold this time of year.
	9:25am Doug Schulkind: The wise-guy tree seller on my block was also part of the operation selling armloads of whatever the hottest toys of the Xmas season were that year. They sold them in the back of the bagel store next to the lot with the trees. People dashing in for the Everything with a shmear, and a Cabbage Patch Doll. Hilarious!
	9:26am coelacanth∅: i see some for 40 bucks now. it doesn't say how tall it is but looks like about 5-6"...unless they're using miniature furniture for the display
	9:27am WR: The fiddlers of Sligo are known throughout the world because they've traveled around the world in search of a good day's pay.
	🥁 9:27am Brian in UK: Sounds a bit like Spinal Tap's Stonehenge!
	9:27am coelacanth∅: i'll agree you're lucky Maggie!
	9:28am TDK60: True story, long ago an older relative of mine dismissed a great grandparent of Irish extraction whom I was curious about, as "just a fiddler."
	9:28am Webhamster Henry: My father famously stole a tree off a lot on Christmas eve.
	9:28am Webhamster Henry: I like that these were all fiddle solos and not buried in a mix.
	9:29am BillD: Greetings from Orange County, NY, to Allegheny County Ireland!
	9:29am Martinibomb: My Dad would always blast The Grey Goose loud on the weekend mornings to wake us kids up
	9:30am Spinning Giant: MartiniBomb - that's awesome
	🥁 9:31am Brian in UK: Doug, would you prefer Celtic Furrow.
	9:31am Really Lisa: coel @ 9:26, 40 bucks isn't too deer. <sorry>
	9:31am Spinning Giant: Walk-a-Lock-Gabbin...? Sounds like fun...how do we play...?
	9:33am bigplanetnoise: Good morning, Doug and Drummertrees...
	🥁 9:33am doctorjazz: Happy Friday!
	9:34am Gina Bacon: Morning, bigplanetnoise! Coffee?
	9:34am prudy: thanks for the humor Doug...needed now more than ever...
	9:34am coelacanth∅: i stole a small evergreen with a big rootball (replantable xmas tree) to give to my father as a xmas present when i was around 18. i justified the theft in some way but i'm not proud of that now
	🥁 9:34am βrian: [Tune into the Drummer Stream]: "Aw, fuck 'em." Well, ok then!
	9:35am bigplanetnoise: Morning, Gfb - yes, please, please...
	9:35am Gina Bacon: I've got plenty! And it's cold. And I have lots of ice!
	9:36am Doug Schulkind: Top o' the morning, Webhamster Henry! Martinibomb! BillD! WR! bigplanetnoise! prudy!
	9:36am coelacanth∅: Lisa yes 40's okay. it looks decent in the picture
	9:37am davefromtoronto: affiliate of W.O.L.D
	🥁 9:37am Brian in UK: Me 'n the beagle is taking a walk afore darkness falls.
	9:38am Webhamster Henry: @Dave/Toronto Both in Cumulus Radio now.
	9:40am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK My first dog was a beagle. She was my 10th birthday present. She was an awful good dog.
	9:40am Really Lisa: Fair I think, coel. Not big into decorating here tbh.
	9:41am davefromtoronto: we have a beago - ever heard of that mix?
	9:42am Spinning Giant: DaveTO - nope...qu'est-ce-que c'est?
	9:42am Doug Schulkind: Howdy, davefromtoronto!
	9:43am Doug Schulkind: I could do a set (a whole show?) of songs about things happening in motel rooms.
	9:44am davefromtoronto: hey guys - it's a beagle and golden retriever - and all 10 pups were pure black!
	🥁 9:44am βrian: My spouse snagged a beautiful fresh tree outside a law firm some years ago. Their party as early and they pitched it afterward. That was a coup. She was like a triumphant beaver returning from the kill.
	9:45am Jeff g. via app: Has there been a country song about alternate side parking yet?
	9:46am coelacanth∅: Lisa i can relate. i use "christmas" lights year-round though, so one could say i've pre-decorated! ...my only acknowledgement of xmas for a few years now is going to the bar for the party there. probably wont do that this year though.
	🥁 9:46am βrian: There used to be an establishment outside Chesaning, MI, called the Notel Motel.
	9:46am KWilde: Always love your country sets Doug
	9:46am Doug Schulkind: @Jeff g. via app Sounds right up Tom T. Hall's alley!
	9:47am Jeff g. via app: “I waited for you from Thursday at 9:30 to 11, but all I got was this ticket to heaven.”
	9:48am Doug Schulkind: @KWilde It's like having someone read a cheap novel to you. Except they're singing. It. To you.
	9:48am Gina Bacon: I love these sad songs.
	🥁 9:50am dutchtheo: Howdy, Doug, drummers! I had to pick up Harry...
	9:51am Doug Schulkind: @Gina Bacon Sad songs with spoken recitations in the middle. The best! dutchtheo: the best!
	9:52am prudy: this set is weirdly soothing...
	9:52am Listener Gregory: @Jeff g, a friend of mine was moving into a Manhattan apartment. His moving truck took up a number of spaces. Someone drove up and asked how long they would be unpacking: over 2 hours, probably. "OK, thanks," the guy said, and double-parked next to the truck and opened up a newspaper, waiting for the space to be released. That was my friend's introduction to NYC.
	9:53am BillD: Country music the way it ought be and should be.
	9:53am bigplanetnoise: I could go for a set (show? week?) of country tunes about coffee.....
	9:53am Really Lisa: Exactly, coel. Plus this year I seem unable to not be annoyed, particularly at extended family members who post on social media, 'life is good, I'm sitting here enjoying <such and such meal or holiday treat>'. I'm not past the pandemic. My dad is gone from covid (that post was his only surviving sister) I'm not loaded with good tidings and cheer. Not meaning to be a downer. Just not good at 'tis the season 2020.
	9:53am prudy: but then again, I'm an aging white girl...
	9:53am Doug Schulkind: @prudy I agree completely. A nice infusion of "someone else has always got it worse" energy.
	9:53am Irene Trudel: Jeff g., parking has gotten pretty sad in NYC lately. A sad Country song is def needed.
	9:54am Doug Schulkind: @bigplanetnoise Make if coffee with suds and you've got a deal.
	9:55am prudy: Really Lisa: sorry for your loss...I've always hated the often fake cheer of the holidays...
	🥁 9:55am βrian: Is Covid Country a sub-genre yet?
	9:55am Irene Trudel: So sorry, Really Lisa! Family can sometimes be insensitive.
	9:57am Really Lisa: Thank you, prudy! From one aging white girl to another. Thank you, too, Irene! Yeah I wonder how one can seem so disconnected. Maybe it's her only way of coping? But think before posting, right?!
	9:58am coelacanth∅: Lisa i know you've had it particularly rough this year i can easily understand all of that being processed into anger. it's better than falling apart.
	🥁 9:59am βrian: I think we need a Truth and Reconciliation Commission where the Covidiots can step up, come clean, and make amends.
	10:00am Spinning Giant: "Mopeytown" ...always a choice destination...
	10:00am Really Lisa: Thanks, coel! I realize anger isn't necessarily productive, but yeah, better than the alternative. I have thought of not getting out of bed.. but need my income!
	10:02am TDK60: I'm conflicted: I kind of support the so-called War on Christmas but I love evergreen shrubbery and elves. Help!
	10:03am Doug Schulkind: I'm so so sorry, Really Lisa. Just awful. We, your radio family, love you.
	10:05am TDK60: Yes Really Lisa, condolences again. Just trying to be funny or at least silly (in 2020 AD).
	10:05am Doug Schulkind: Music from the revolutionary wing of the MPLA Youth fighting the liberation good fight in Angola!
	10:05am coelacanth∅: your aunt's seeming attitude is understandable but her behavior is insensitive -in my opinion. - i say understandable not because i'm okay with it - it's sad...but because of how many times i've witnessed siblings that didn't even communicate with each-other for years, or for the last decades of their lives. (ie) my father didn't seem to give a crap when his twin sister died. (also his only sibling)
	10:09am coelacanth∅: TDK i certainly don't have a war on xmas! i love certain things about it. every 2-3 years i think okay i'm decorating this year; then time slips away and i don't. - but not because of humbug!
	10:10am coelacanth∅: (okay, getting back to work now)
	🥁 10:10am sinner: Love the Semba / Rebita, etc. all styles.
	10:11am Doug Schulkind: Sad pop from Angola is the saddest pop. So fucking sad!
	10:12am Doug Schulkind: @sinner We converge!
	🥁 10:12am βrian: We have a somewhat newly adopted daughter, so that's prodded us to make some modest efforts at seasonal decoration. But we do like to keep it glitz-free.
	10:14am Listener Gregory: From Wikipedia, re: Angola revolutionaries: In 1971, while on tour with the Ornette Coleman Quartet in Portugal (at the time under a fascist dictatorship), Haden dedicated a performance of his "Song for Che" to the anticolonialist revolutionaries in the Portuguese colonies of Mozambique, Angola, and Guinea. The following day, he was detained at Lisbon Airport, jailed, and interrogated by the DGS, the Portuguese secret police. He was only released after Ornette Coleman and others complained to the American cultural attaché, and he was later interviewed in the United States by the FBI about his choice of dedication.
	10:14am Doug Schulkind: We hang a string of the tiniest white Xmas lights on our front porch. But they stay there all year.
	10:16am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Check out Charlie Haden's "For a Free Portugal." The track incorporates sounds of bombing and liberation fighting.
	🥁 10:16am doctorjazz: This Pedro Lima track is lovely.
	10:17am Listener Gregory: Doug, I know it well.
	10:17am TDK60: Listener Gregory: the audio of his talk is on one of his Liberation Orch. albums I think. The portuguese audience applauded wildly; obviously supporters of the liberation struggles in Africa.
	10:17am Really Lisa: Thank you coel, TDK, Doug, very much appreciated. I most def wouldn't have fared as well this year w/o a bunch of these shows, listener chats, djs... 💗
	10:18am Doug Schulkind: @doctorjazz Pedro Lima's well-earned moniker from his homeland (Sao Tomé): The Voice of the People. There was no more beloved on the island.
	10:19am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory What a chilling story and what a huge middle finger of a song from Mr. Haden.
	10:20am Doug Schulkind: I believe this music style from Sao Tomé is called puxa.
	10:21am TDK60: Sorry, it was C. Haden's "Closeness" album, a record of duets. "Free Portugal" was with drummer Paul Motian.
	🥁 10:26am βrian: Angola, Indiana was named after Angola, NY, which was named after ... Angola.
	10:26am Listener Gregory: Doug, Sonny knows you only talk over the greatest. Also, has anyone heard this new Sonny Rollins release of a trio concert in Holland, 1967, w/Han Bennink on drums?
	10:27am Uncle Michael: I can't find the mylar bag I was going to wear today!
	10:28am Gina Bacon: No, I'm in an actual house now! Thank you, Doug!!
	10:32am Doug Schulkind: I cling to the image of you in your attic, Gina! But I'm glad you're back on terra firma.
	10:32am Doug Schulkind: @Uncle Michael Here, you can use my lar bag.
	10:33am Doug Schulkind: I wanna start a band called Lardbag.
	10:34am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory I just wrapped a white-knuckle, vice-like grip around my digital copy of that new Sonny Rollins! And I've got the new Mingus, too.
	10:34am Doug Schulkind: Donald Byrd is your trumpetist here!
	🥁 10:35am βrian: I once flew Aer Mingus.
	10:35am TDK60: Happy Hannukah. And in Geneva, happy Escalade Day.
	10:37am Jeff Golick: @βrian: where cats who can use the lavatory fly free.
	10:37am Doug Schulkind: Phil Woods on this cut does nothing to dispel the impression most formed that he was a big fat Charlie Parker imitator.
	10:42am Irene Trudel: @Doug, I've been enjoying the show as I putter around this morning, but now must drop off to do work. Carry on!
	10:42am Funky16Corners: Who’s playing organ on this Braith session?
	10:43am Doug Schulkind: @Irene Put down your putter and pick up your wedge. #golfhumor
	10:43am Listener Gregory: @Doug, please give us a review of the Rollins when you hear it. As to Phil Woods, I think he had his own recognizable style, albeit heavily indebted to Bird. Many tried to imitate Parker, but few actually succeeded well enough to make good music. In my humble opinion!
	10:44am Doug Schulkind: @Funky16Corners Billy Gardner was on organ. Grant Green on guitar! Now everyone, without Googling, try to guess who is on alto sax here playing alongside Gene Ammons' tenor sax!!!
	10:45am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory I generally give Phil Woods a break, but I thought his Parkersonian imitation on that cut was absurdly unabashed.
	10:47am Listener Gregory: I've been listening to a lot of Oliver Nelson big-band projects, and Phil Woods is usually the best player in them. They're not so straightforward be-bop, so that may help.
	10:47am Doug Schulkind: Rudy Van Gelder going heavy with the reverb on Jug's tenor sax here. I LOVE it.
	10:48am chresti: Morning Doug and drummers!
	10:49am Doug Schulkind: @LG Those Oliver Nelson dates are chockfull of surprises.
	10:49am Doug Schulkind: Guess the alto sax player here!!! Good morning to you, chresti!
	10:49am Listener Gregory: Is it John Coltrane??????????
	10:49am Jeff Golick: So sweeeeeeeeet.
	10:50am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Yesirree!
	10:51am Listener Gregory: Incredible. I don't think I've heard this.
	10:51am Doug Schulkind: Coltrane is playing in alto here, but he's dreaming in soprano.
	10:52am Doug Schulkind: And get this... MAL WALDRON on piano!
	10:52am Jeff Golick: Ammons + Coltrane represents a whole lot of history in one cut.
	10:54am Doug Schulkind: This record was cut in 1958, but Prestige held it for release until Ammons was released from prison (for a drug offense) in 1960.
	10:59am Listener Gregory: Anyone who knows some jazz history is faced with the massive racial unfairness of the "war on drugs," via how it ruined the lives of mostly Black artists.
	11:01am Jeff Golick: That's a good music bed right there.
	11:02am Doug Schulkind: Super high thread-count on that talkover track, Jeff Golick!
	11:03am Funky16Corners: This reminds me of Ivy
	11:03am Doug Schulkind: The accompanying video for this Laura Veirs number is enchanting. I normally don't give two shits about music videos. But since I adore everything Laura Veirs does...
	🥁 11:05am βrian: It was years before I realized what folks were referring to when they mentioned "Empty V."
	11:05am Doug Schulkind: New one from Lavender Diamond. Just released on December 4. The incandescent voice of Becky Stark. What a beautiful thing of beautiful beauty.
	🥁 11:06am Brian in UK: Two Shits About Music was my first.........
	🥁 11:06am βrian: A duo, I presume.
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK I like the way you think, Sir.
	11:07am Doug Schulkind: @βrian Our first LP was titled Number Two.
	11:07am TDK60: Not so into music vidz either. I do like some Scandanavian conductor hovering over a Bruckner symphony, though.
	11:09am chresti: There is a shitload of 2020 music.
	11:11am chresti: TDK60, pardon my french \\ //
	11:11am Doug Schulkind: Laura Veirs: lauraveirs.bandcamp.com... Lavender Diamond: lavenderdiamondband.bandcamp.com... Kathleen Edwards: kathleenedwards.bandcamp.com...

	11:19am Doug Schulkind: Lucinda Williams: www.lucindawilliams.com Emma Swift: emmaswift.bandcamp.com...
	🥁 11:19am βrian: Is this a follow-on to the night soils?
	11:20am Doug Schulkind: Emma Swift has a the most wonderful cat sitter.
	11:22am Listener Gregory: @βrian, oof! That suggests a band title... Captain Dirt and the Night Soils? Have to work on it.
	11:23am Doug Schulkind: There is little truth to the rumor that Emma Swift paid $300 million for the rights to release this album of Dylan covers.
	11:25am Doug Schulkind: Bless you Emma for covering all 11-plus minutes of this one. Very few have attempted it.
	🥁 11:29am Brian in UK: Robyn Hitchcock paid for it!!
	11:29am Uncle Michael: Only about 20 covers of this. Not many for a Dylan classic.
	11:29am Doug Schulkind: Robyn Hitchcock also has the most wonderful cat sitter.
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: @Uncle Michael Exactly.
	🥁 11:30am Brian in UK: Been enjoying Lucinda's music for close on thirty years but here voice is getting between me and the songs nowadays.
	11:30am Listener Gregory: Interesting that she also covers a song from Dylan's most recent album: I Contain Multitudes.
	11:30am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Give it time. It will grow on you.
	11:31am Doug Schulkind: @Listener Gregory Veerrry interesting.
	11:33am Listener Gregory: The good earth appreciates all typos, Doug.
	🥁 11:34am Brian in UK: The Good Earth was...... Ah better put the chickens away.
	11:36am Doug Schulkind: I typographically soiled myself. Literally.
	🥁 11:37am βrian: Compost those typos. Don't throw them away.
	🥁 11:37am Brian in UK: Doug, so you do give two shits?
	11:39am Doug Schulkind: @Brian in UK Simultaneously.
	11:41am Listener Gregory: Wow! Floyd Smith totally Bobby "Blue" Blanded me on that one. Impressive.
	11:41am Funky16Corners: Killing it with the soul set!
	11:44am Doug Schulkind: @Funky16Corners You saying that is like Julia Child saying "delicious."
	11:45am TDK60: That Diamond Joe track, kind of 45 that would jump out of those big old jukeboxes.
	11:45am Uncle Michael: Lucinda could have absolutely released an album called Good Soils.
	11:46am Funky16Corners: Diamond Joe was one of the great New Orleans singers.
	11:47am Doug Schulkind: Sprung from the loamy earth like a towering beanstock for Jack to shimmy, it's HINKY DINKY TIME with your lead horticulturist Uncle Michael. Let him plant some songs in your brain! Top of the hour! Happening right here: wfmu.org...
