	9:13pm greg g: This High Fly is high flyin !! Very much diggin it
	9:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! I imagine this shift is as close as WFMU gets to pirate radio.
	9:14pm Ira: Pirate radio? Not after last Sunday's heartbreaker at Citi Field.
	9:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Eep!
	9:16pm Bruce S.: Birds Of Maya killin it
	9:17pm Handy Haversack: Hoooo, this is a scorcher! And thanks for making room for a chastened and scarred Yankee fan.
	9:17pm McGroovey: I want to play in Birds of Maya.
	9:18pm McGroovey: Philadelphia? I'd go there.
	9:19pm justoffthebeach: LOL
	9:19pm TDK60: The K-Mart on 34th St closed.
	9:19pm Handy Haversack: RIP, Astor Place K-Mart. Was thinking of you this afternoon, McGroovey, when Creamo played a solid Swell Maps rock block.
	9:19pm McGroovey: I forgot it was still there.
	9:20pm Bruce S.: Thiis is when the season starts getting serious for the mets,I want the mets staying in good form in Aug. and Sept.
	9:20pm vj pussycat: that was funny, ira. because it’s true
	9:21pm McGroovey: @Handy yeah, i caught the last few seconds of it. And then I feel asleep.
	9:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: All the Kame-Aparts up here closed a few years ago. It was my go-to place for cheapie everyday stuff I needed.
	9:23pm melinda: hi everyone!
	9:23pm Bruce S.: I think they will, The mets are not overachieving this year, they have a very solid team with very good pitching
	9:25pm Gurldoggie: I'm glad you folks keep the baseball talk to the comment board. If WFMU became one of those awful "sports chat" stations I don't know what I'd listen to!
	9:26pm tristan in ptown: baseball talk?? u mean philosophy!
	9:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah my brain just skips the sportsball like a language I can't recognize...
	9:27pm Handy Haversack: Well, there was the much-missed Pig Talk, Gurldoggie: www.wfmu.org...
	9:27pm BH: the K-Mart around here closed at the end of 2017, so I went on a last trip through it because it was also the K-Mart of my youth. I got some Chex Mix
	9:27pm Bruce S.: You should listen to George Carlin talk about baseball and football, very funny
	9:28pm McGroovey: Hey, Handy, now there's a show idea: Canoe Talk.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: I miss K-mart, but they've been gone from Canada for a long time...we had our own homegrown version up here called Byway, which was equally awesome in its own cheap and gritty way. Most of my nerdy preteens 80s fashion garb came from there. Wish i still had some of those outfits...
	9:29pm vj pussycat: good purchase @bh. chex mix goes great with weed butter if one is so inclined.
	9:29pm Gurldoggie: Call it what you will Tristan, but when I hear "overachieving solid team with good pitching" that's when I reach for my remote control!
	9:29pm Spinning Giant: ...oh, and hi everybody!!... :D
	9:32pm Meghanssj: The art critic Jerry Saltz posted some sentimental pictures of the Kmart on Astor Place today on Instagram.
	9:32pm Bruce S.: sorry Gurldoggie, my OCD about the Mets has been satisfied for the night so thats it, unless our hosts.....
	9:33pm TDK60: You could enter from the subway? [Astor]
	9:33pm Spinning Giant: Now that i think of it i have a distinct recollection of frequenting the K-Mart in Prague while i was doing a semester abroad in the mid-90s. It was great...but then, so was everything in Prague...
	9:33pm tristan in ptown: @gurldoggie...I am in complete agreement. sports always improve with the mute button firmly pressed!!
	9:34pm vj pussycat: not picking sides, but i share your sentiment @gurldoggie.
	9:34pm McGroovey: And I still wanna start a Swell Maps cover band.
	9:35pm Ira: So happy that the love fest that is usually this Comments page has been broken by baseball!
	9:36pm TDK60: The 34th St K-m had an exit to Penn Station and subway. You could hop on the train with your new undershorts.
	9:36pm tristan in ptown: @vj pussycat... ain't u one of the " 4 leos "?
	9:36pm McGroovey: Personally, i just ignore the baseball comments. Yawn.
	9:37pm tristan in ptown: @ira... no way I'm arguing or against love!! piece!
	9:37pm John L: I get bored watching any sport, yet I love many a sports movie. I lived with a woman who loved baseball, so I compromised and went to a ball game every time she asked. I've seen enough baseball that I could kinda tell when the actors are any good at playing, or at least good at faking it.
	9:38pm Meghanssj: @tdk60 the Subway entrance at Astor was indeed one of the scenes pictured.
	9:40pm Gurldoggie: Sorry if I started something. I honestly meant it truly doesn't bug me if the baseball flows free on this word nerd board, as long as the sweet music keeps coming over the airwaves!
	9:40pm Bruce S.: John L Baseball movies can sometimes be kind of corney, I hope you saw some good ones
	9:41pm John L: I mentioned this before, but I saw Joe McPhee play a few weeks ago. I have refrained from shaking hands during Covid, but when he offered his hand I couldn't say no. A really nice guy.
	9:41pm tristan in ptown: I can't understand the rift btw sports watchers and haters. u all watch regular tv in some kinda agreement, wtf?! tv party tonite? never
	9:42pm Bruce S.: Gurldoogie thanks for your tolaration
	9:43pm tristan in ptown: yes gurldoggie, ty. and for ur poetry... word nerd board... genius!
	9:45pm Handy Haversack: I think Canoe Talk would really bore this argument into inertness. I'll get right on it!
	9:47pm vj pussycat: i am 1/4 @tristan!
	9:49pm McGroovey: Topics for discussion: J-stroke: why do people think it's hard? Beer on the water: why? Why not?
	9:49pm TDK60: Handy, hey you could do it; just get a flow going with your show guests. Add-in some field recordings and you're off.
	9:50pm brycepunk1: I've really been enjoying your set tonight. Thank you
	9:53pm Bruce S.: I am now in the Ira zone,a cool place to be
	9:54pm leshwatt: I wish you jazz, and baseball
	9:55pm listener 126464: the good stuff!
	9:58pm TDK60: Fugs' 2nd, haven't pulled this out since..
	9:58pm listener 126464: And hello to everyone.

	10:02pm tristan in ptown: miss napthali. tuli! 11 years and a day and counting
	10:04pm leshwatt: Hit after hit after hit!
	10:05pm Handy Haversack: McGroovey, if you have any advice on teaching others the J, I'd love to hear it. I did a Skills and Drills trip tonight. I think it went well, but I have massive impostor syndrome when I try to teach paddling.
	10:06pm tristan in ptown: sometimes I feel like dizzy's vocal tunes are from another planet.
	10:07pm McGroovey: Keep the boat upright and going straight. The rest is commentary. That's a paraphrase of someone else.
	10:08pm McGroovey: *someone wise
	10:11pm Bruce S.: Tristan where is ptown?
	10:12pm Franco Twinkie: Spinning Giant @9:33 I went to The K-mart in Prague too! I have a picture of two Carol Merrill types at a display case serving Kellogg's Sugar Frosted Flakes samples on sliver spoons. I got a K-Mart Praha coffee cup left over from their grand opening.

	10:30pm Carmichael: @handy, what is WAB?
	10:31pm Carmichael: Chresti, are you moving out of your studio?
	10:32pm Carmichael: Weenies and Beanies?
	10:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ira is a Sonic Bird Artist weaving a perfect architecture of a nest from all manner of completely diverse found materials : a bright plastic cord - a multicolored yarn - natural twigs & headlined newspapers. An audial Montage Painter of synesthetic & imaginary temporal Form...
	10:33pm Bruce S.: It's probably wake and bake

	10:35pm Carmichael: I feel like scott67.

	10:40pm vj pussycat: yea, that's another good one rr63
	10:42pm Bruce S.: Yeah RevRab63 I had to read that a few times, excellent stuff
	10:43pm Carmichael: In this day and age, if you get COVID it’s your choice. Doctors are then left with a choice. In my humble opinion.
	10:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: There's the right way, the wrong way and the Florida way. The Florida way is also the wrong way, but faster.
	10:48pm Bruce S.: This show is doing wonders for my psyche
	10:49pm Carmichael: Beer cans on the moon.
	10:50pm Bruce S.: Was that theme for chuck McCann or theme from something
	10:50pm tristan in ptown: this show reminds me that you never know where the best things in life are coming from next!
	10:51pm Ira: Bruce S. . . . Little Rascals
	10:52pm Bruce S.: Of course, Thanks Ira
	10:59pm greg g: I dated Wanda Jackson back in high school and she broke up with me to go out with Elvis Presley . Shes still cool though.
	11:00pm Carmichael: That makes you about 90, greg.

	11:15pm Little Danny: Beautiful.
	11:16pm ShelbyG: I'm gonna be that softie person that just needs to say, I'm so grateful for you all. Being on my own over 2 mos. now, y'all have been something to look forward to at the end of the day. Feeling very grateful.
	11:17pm chresti: Superb set, thanks Ira!
	11:17pm Corey: Looking forward to garlic festivities! Howdy, Handy!
	11:17pm spodiodi: logged in to agree, Little Danny. what a song
	11:17pm tristan in ptown: @Greg g. if there were a town inhabited only by Grace Jones drag queens...I would move there

	11:31pm ?: Nice mix from the Plastikman into this next tune
	11:33pm Franco Twinkie: Haha! I like that Shelby. But right now I feel like a slinky that got run over by a truck.
	11:35pm Bruce S.: A slinky run over by a truck, Franco, I hope you feel better soon
	11:36pm greg g: such cool cool sounds. A++ set Ira & thank you to your producer & your buddy James ( for the EL-P disc) . Thanks fellow Tooznighters. Have a very good rest of the week everyone.

	11:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: Oh yeah, how did James' birthday things go last week? I hope he enjoyed his birthday.
	11:38pm tristan in ptown: @Greg g... see you soon... work on that Grace Jones outfit!

	11:43pm Little Danny: Lovely headphones sounds!
	11:44pm Meghanssj: I thought the parking lot movie with James McNew was neat…and this atmospheric sound bath…it is especially an enjoyable winddown juxtaposed against the outdoor sounds of a Saint Paul summer evening, where a storm is a-brewin in the backyard.
	11:46pm tristan in ptown: shelby (et al)... what strain(s) are we burning tonite?
	11:47pm vj pussycat: i've been a bjm fan for a long time and it never occurred to me how many different jonestown massacres there could be. thank you greg g.

	11:53pm Little Danny: Thanks as always Ira, love this show.

	11:56pm Bruce S.: VJ and all happy trails good night
	11:56pm Gurldoggie: I’ve been keeping my big mouth shut after “baseballgate” earlier, but I have to say I loved the way the minimalist set let into the moody atmospheres of Bobby Gentry. Beautifully done.

	9:07pm vj pussycat: hi @bruce s. compliments...
	9:08pm TDK60: Good eve Ira. Happy 13th.
	9:09pm Ira: Will there be more whistling to come? I think so.

	9:13pm greg g: This High Fly is high flyin !! Very much diggin it
	9:13pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hello! I imagine this shift is as close as WFMU gets to pirate radio.
	9:14pm Ira: Pirate radio? Not after last Sunday's heartbreaker at Citi Field.
	9:16pm Ken From Hyde Park: Eep!
	9:16pm Bruce S.: Birds Of Maya killin it
	9:17pm Handy Haversack: Hoooo, this is a scorcher! And thanks for making room for a chastened and scarred Yankee fan.
	9:17pm McGroovey: I want to play in Birds of Maya.
	9:18pm McGroovey: Philadelphia? I'd go there.
	9:19pm justoffthebeach: LOL
	9:19pm TDK60: The K-Mart on 34th St closed.
	9:19pm Handy Haversack: RIP, Astor Place K-Mart. Was thinking of you this afternoon, McGroovey, when Creamo played a solid Swell Maps rock block.
	9:19pm McGroovey: I forgot it was still there.
	9:20pm Bruce S.: Thiis is when the season starts getting serious for the mets,I want the mets staying in good form in Aug. and Sept.
	9:20pm vj pussycat: that was funny, ira. because it’s true
	9:21pm McGroovey: @Handy yeah, i caught the last few seconds of it. And then I feel asleep.
	9:22pm Ken From Hyde Park: All the Kame-Aparts up here closed a few years ago. It was my go-to place for cheapie everyday stuff I needed.
	9:23pm melinda: hi everyone!
	9:23pm Bruce S.: I think they will, The mets are not overachieving this year, they have a very solid team with very good pitching
	9:25pm Gurldoggie: I'm glad you folks keep the baseball talk to the comment board. If WFMU became one of those awful "sports chat" stations I don't know what I'd listen to!
	9:26pm tristan in ptown: baseball talk?? u mean philosophy!
	9:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yeah my brain just skips the sportsball like a language I can't recognize...
	9:27pm Handy Haversack: Well, there was the much-missed Pig Talk, Gurldoggie: www.wfmu.org...
	9:27pm BH: the K-Mart around here closed at the end of 2017, so I went on a last trip through it because it was also the K-Mart of my youth. I got some Chex Mix
	9:27pm Bruce S.: You should listen to George Carlin talk about baseball and football, very funny
	9:28pm McGroovey: Hey, Handy, now there's a show idea: Canoe Talk.
	9:28pm Spinning Giant: I miss K-mart, but they've been gone from Canada for a long time...we had our own homegrown version up here called Byway, which was equally awesome in its own cheap and gritty way. Most of my nerdy preteens 80s fashion garb came from there. Wish i still had some of those outfits...
	9:29pm vj pussycat: good purchase @bh. chex mix goes great with weed butter if one is so inclined.
	9:29pm Gurldoggie: Call it what you will Tristan, but when I hear "overachieving solid team with good pitching" that's when I reach for my remote control!
	9:29pm Spinning Giant: ...oh, and hi everybody!!... :D
	9:32pm Meghanssj: The art critic Jerry Saltz posted some sentimental pictures of the Kmart on Astor Place today on Instagram.
	9:32pm Bruce S.: sorry Gurldoggie, my OCD about the Mets has been satisfied for the night so thats it, unless our hosts.....
	9:33pm TDK60: You could enter from the subway? [Astor]
	9:33pm Spinning Giant: Now that i think of it i have a distinct recollection of frequenting the K-Mart in Prague while i was doing a semester abroad in the mid-90s. It was great...but then, so was everything in Prague...
	9:33pm tristan in ptown: @gurldoggie...I am in complete agreement. sports always improve with the mute button firmly pressed!!
	9:34pm vj pussycat: not picking sides, but i share your sentiment @gurldoggie.
	9:34pm McGroovey: And I still wanna start a Swell Maps cover band.
	9:35pm Ira: So happy that the love fest that is usually this Comments page has been broken by baseball!
	9:36pm TDK60: The 34th St K-m had an exit to Penn Station and subway. You could hop on the train with your new undershorts.
	9:36pm tristan in ptown: @vj pussycat... ain't u one of the " 4 leos "?
	9:36pm McGroovey: Personally, i just ignore the baseball comments. Yawn.
	9:37pm tristan in ptown: @ira... no way I'm arguing or against love!! piece!
	9:37pm John L: I get bored watching any sport, yet I love many a sports movie. I lived with a woman who loved baseball, so I compromised and went to a ball game every time she asked. I've seen enough baseball that I could kinda tell when the actors are any good at playing, or at least good at faking it.
	9:38pm Meghanssj: @tdk60 the Subway entrance at Astor was indeed one of the scenes pictured.
	9:40pm Gurldoggie: Sorry if I started something. I honestly meant it truly doesn't bug me if the baseball flows free on this word nerd board, as long as the sweet music keeps coming over the airwaves!
	9:40pm Bruce S.: John L Baseball movies can sometimes be kind of corney, I hope you saw some good ones
	9:41pm John L: I mentioned this before, but I saw Joe McPhee play a few weeks ago. I have refrained from shaking hands during Covid, but when he offered his hand I couldn't say no. A really nice guy.
	9:41pm tristan in ptown: I can't understand the rift btw sports watchers and haters. u all watch regular tv in some kinda agreement, wtf?! tv party tonite? never
	9:42pm Bruce S.: Gurldoogie thanks for your tolaration
	9:43pm tristan in ptown: yes gurldoggie, ty. and for ur poetry... word nerd board... genius!
	9:45pm Handy Haversack: I think Canoe Talk would really bore this argument into inertness. I'll get right on it!
	9:47pm vj pussycat: i am 1/4 @tristan!
	9:49pm McGroovey: Topics for discussion: J-stroke: why do people think it's hard? Beer on the water: why? Why not?
	9:49pm TDK60: Handy, hey you could do it; just get a flow going with your show guests. Add-in some field recordings and you're off.
	9:50pm brycepunk1: I've really been enjoying your set tonight. Thank you
	9:53pm Bruce S.: I am now in the Ira zone,a cool place to be
	9:54pm leshwatt: I wish you jazz, and baseball
	9:55pm listener 126464: the good stuff!

	10:02pm tristan in ptown: miss napthali. tuli! 11 years and a day and counting
	10:04pm leshwatt: Hit after hit after hit!
	10:05pm Handy Haversack: McGroovey, if you have any advice on teaching others the J, I'd love to hear it. I did a Skills and Drills trip tonight. I think it went well, but I have massive impostor syndrome when I try to teach paddling.
	10:06pm tristan in ptown: sometimes I feel like dizzy's vocal tunes are from another planet.
	10:07pm McGroovey: Keep the boat upright and going straight. The rest is commentary. That's a paraphrase of someone else.
	10:08pm McGroovey: *someone wise
	10:11pm Bruce S.: Tristan where is ptown?
	10:12pm Franco Twinkie: Spinning Giant @9:33 I went to The K-mart in Prague too! I have a picture of two Carol Merrill types at a display case serving Kellogg's Sugar Frosted Flakes samples on sliver spoons. I got a K-Mart Praha coffee cup left over from their grand opening.
	10:16pm Bruce S.: Thanks for this set Ira

	10:30pm Carmichael: @handy, what is WAB?
	10:31pm Carmichael: Chresti, are you moving out of your studio?
	10:32pm Carmichael: Weenies and Beanies?
	10:32pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ira is a Sonic Bird Artist weaving a perfect architecture of a nest from all manner of completely diverse found materials : a bright plastic cord - a multicolored yarn - natural twigs & headlined newspapers. An audial Montage Painter of synesthetic & imaginary temporal Form...
	10:33pm Bruce S.: It's probably wake and bake
	10:34pm Robm: Hello fellow listeners
	10:35pm Carmichael: Clay comes on at 3:00 am out here.
	10:35pm Carmichael: I feel like scott67.

	10:40pm vj pussycat: yea, that's another good one rr63
	10:42pm Bruce S.: Yeah RevRab63 I had to read that a few times, excellent stuff
	10:43pm Carmichael: In this day and age, if you get COVID it’s your choice. Doctors are then left with a choice. In my humble opinion.
	10:44pm Ken From Hyde Park: There's the right way, the wrong way and the Florida way. The Florida way is also the wrong way, but faster.
	10:48pm Bruce S.: This show is doing wonders for my psyche
	10:49pm Carmichael: Beer cans on the moon.
	10:50pm Bruce S.: Was that theme for chuck McCann or theme from something
	10:50pm tristan in ptown: this show reminds me that you never know where the best things in life are coming from next!
	10:51pm Ira: Bruce S. . . . Little Rascals

	11:10pm greg g: @ tristan I dont know what town you're in but yes I'd say any town needs a good Wanda Jackson drag queen. I actually was lucky enough to see the real Wanda Jackson right here in Buffalo NY some years back. She put on a wonderfully rockin show ( didnt seem to remember at all though..strange )

	11:15pm Little Danny: Beautiful.
	11:16pm ShelbyG: I'm gonna be that softie person that just needs to say, I'm so grateful for you all. Being on my own over 2 mos. now, y'all have been something to look forward to at the end of the day. Feeling very grateful.
	11:17pm chresti: Superb set, thanks Ira!
	11:17pm Corey: Looking forward to garlic festivities! Howdy, Handy!
	11:17pm spodiodi: logged in to agree, Little Danny. what a song
	11:17pm tristan in ptown: @Greg g. if there were a town inhabited only by Grace Jones drag queens...I would move there
	11:18pm Little Danny: What chresti said. Hi Spodi! I agree with your agreeing!
	11:18pm tristan in ptown: that Chadbourne covering nick drake was really something special

	11:30pm tristan in ptown: let the audio massage begin!
	11:31pm ShelbyG: twinkle, twinkie my favorite slinky
	11:31pm ?: Nice mix from the Plastikman into this next tune
	11:33pm Franco Twinkie: Haha! I like that Shelby. But right now I feel like a slinky that got run over by a truck.
	11:35pm Bruce S.: A slinky run over by a truck, Franco, I hope you feel better soon
	11:36pm greg g: such cool cool sounds. A++ set Ira & thank you to your producer & your buddy James ( for the EL-P disc) . Thanks fellow Tooznighters. Have a very good rest of the week everyone.
	11:36pm ShelbyG: awww, Franco, do you have any "run over by a truck" remedies? I send you a virtual squeeze you are a brilliant lil star, my friend
	11:37pm Ken From Hyde Park: Oh yeah, how did James' birthday things go last week? I hope he enjoyed his birthday.
	11:38pm tristan in ptown: @Greg g... see you soon... work on that Grace Jones outfit!

	11:43pm greg g: @tristan Will do! that could be the Grace Jonestown Massacre , but Ill try my best. good night
	11:43pm Little Danny: Lovely headphones sounds!
	11:44pm Meghanssj: I thought the parking lot movie with James McNew was neat…and this atmospheric sound bath…it is especially an enjoyable winddown juxtaposed against the outdoor sounds of a Saint Paul summer evening, where a storm is a-brewin in the backyard.
	11:46pm tristan in ptown: shelby (et al)... what strain(s) are we burning tonite?
	11:47pm vj pussycat: i've been a bjm fan for a long time and it never occurred to me how many different jonestown massacres there could be. thank you greg g.

	11:56pm Gurldoggie: I’ve been keeping my big mouth shut after “baseballgate” earlier, but I have to say I loved the way the minimalist set let into the moody atmospheres of Bobby Gentry. Beautifully done.
