	12:12pm Kevin / Ringwood / UK: I used to work with a software developer from Trinidad Yeti Bob. She used to talk about how fantastic their carnival is. And I'm going for Sri Lanka.

	12:19pm David Dichelle: Hello Theo, more spacey stuff to take off with in a little while...
	12:22pm headcleaner: It's safe to say that the general public in the U.S. was, throughout the summer of 2021, much more concerned about murder hornets and UFOs than the fate of post-pullout Afghanistan
	🚂 12:25pm Yvang: Hi David and all! I will say Azerbaijan.
	12:25pm David Dichelle: Hello Headcleaner and Yvang!
	12:25pm Phillippe: Howdy! Sticking with Brazil
	12:26pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Phillippe!
	12:28pm Phillippe: DiL, Handy, chresti, YB, chris, carmichael, Brian et. al, how y'all doing?
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: This song sure is foreshadowing a bad ending. You can feel the forces of Dark Folk Song gathering. It'll all end in tears.
	🚂 12:31pm YETI BOB: I'm pretty good, Phillippe. I just came in from watering my plants, the sun is very hot today, it's like somebody just parked a giant nuclear reactor in the sky, with no shielding or anything.
	🚂 12:31pm chris in the redwoods: heya, Phillippe! enjoying a damn fine cup o joe, listening to some fine music, so can't complain about a thing. and yourself?
	🚂 12:32pm David (in London): Hey Phillippe. All good in The Smoke thanks my friend.
	🚂 12:32pm Handy Haversack: YB, should we start a letter-writing campaign to have it shut down? It sounds unsafe! Hey, Phillippe. Swotting away over here.
	12:34pm Phillippe: Definitely enjoying the tunes over here as well. The weather, not so much.
	🚂 12:36pm Handy Haversack: Trad. arr. TradArrr.
	12:37pm TDK60: A tad of mystery can remain in music, I suppose.
	🚂 12:39pm David (in London): I shall be off next week, too. I'm utterly demob happy now.
	12:40pm TDK60: Hi David, heading up to the forests?
	🚂 12:40pm Michael 98145: i have very little on my mind at the moment

	12:43pm Marie: Loving this already
	🚂 12:43pm David (in London): Handy / TDK - A few days out of town hiking / a few days in town at cinemas and galleries. Can't wait. A stack of DVDs to get through, too.

	12:47pm David Dichelle: Diana: Sounds great - so many festivals over there!
	🚂 12:48pm Michael 98145: @David(iL) ... hope your country is doing a better job fighting this pandemic than we are.
	🚂 12:48pm chris in the redwoods: any gallery shows you're particularly interested in seeing, David (iL)? Helen Frankenthaler at the Gagosian looks intriguing to me.
	🚂 12:53pm Yvang: Carré Manchot is a play on words...also meaning Carrément Chaud (same pronunciation)
	12:53pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Indeed - and the description fits, I suppose.
	🚂 12:55pm Yvang: I think so!
	🚂 12:56pm Michael 98145: Turkmenistan?! "In the early 1970's, the Gunesh Ensemble begain as a part of the State TV and Radio Company of the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) focused as a vocal ensemble with musical instruments mostly in support. As the group grew and changed, it retained an Oriental tradition but migrated more towards jazz-rock with some improvisation. "
	🚂 12:56pm David (in London): chris - that should be good. I want to catch the Turner exhibition at the Tate before it ends, and the Photography's Roots one at the Dulwich Picture Gallery. Should keep me going.
	12:58pm David Dichelle: Yes, back to Turkmenistan and Gunesh. The random roads often leave a trail...
	🚂 1:00pm Michael 98145: that was something
	🚂 1:01pm Diana Senechal: A Lithuanian band! I like this a lot.
	🚂 1:01pm Brian in UK: Hello David & roof riders.
	1:02pm David Dichelle: Greetings, Brian!
	🚂 1:02pm chris in the redwoods: nice, David (iL)! love the Tate. and that Photography's Roots show looks very groovy.
	🚂 1:02pm Brian in UK: Saw an Escher exhibition at Dulwich a few years back.
	1:04pm David Dichelle: Diana: Yes, it is a group that formed from the members of a folk and folk-metal group.
	1:07pm Marie: A very jazzy "Monster" @)
	🚂 1:09pm chris in the redwoods: this Monster track reminded me of Monster Stomp by Minako Yoshida, played by Duane on the Duane Train yesterday. wonder if they're both based on the same tune...
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: greetings David and all
	1:11pm David Dichelle: It is all composed by Martin Tingvall, according to the notes.
	1:12pm David Dichelle: Salutations, Coel!
	🚂 1:15pm chris in the redwoods: i'll take a re-listen to the Yoshida track later. curious. hey, coel!
	1:16pm David Dichelle: If not, we could still attempt a Monster Mash-up.
	🚂 1:17pm Handy Haversack: Imagine the fanny pack a JAZZ Monster would have.
	1:20pm coelacanth∅: hi chris!
	1:23pm doctorjazz: Quick hi! (I remember Carlos I)
	1:24pm Phillippe: Depending on the radio station you are listening to "From Brittany" can mean totally different things...
	1:25pm coelacanth∅: now don't get toxic on us Phillippe
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: hey dr.j!
	1:28pm Marie: Bas!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:28pm coelacanth∅: i "randomly" choose brasil
	🚂 1:29pm chris in the redwoods: my on-board randomizer has picked South Africa
	1:29pm Phillippe: too late coel, I clocked in with that earlier
	🚂 1:29pm Handy Haversack: Hmmm. These West African tunes are making me think that Cabo Verde is not too likely to be the Random Road ...
	🚂 1:30pm chris in the redwoods: or would researching African tunes create a bias for playing more of em, Handy? hmmm....
	1:30pm David Dichelle: Hey, Dr. J.!
	1:31pm David Dichelle: I mean if I play 10 tracks from Nigeria in the second hour, it probably won't happen in the third. Or would it?
	1:32pm Stanley: Hi David and intercontinental friends
	1:32pm David Dichelle: Salut, Stanlé!
	🚂 1:32pm chris in the redwoods: i just heard "wot up party people" in my head. hehehe.
	🚂 1:33pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Stanley!
	1:33pm coelacanth∅: hey Stanley!
	🚂 1:33pm Handy Haversack: So many variables. We need a computer the size of a planet to get this answer figured out! Hey, Stanley.
	1:34pm Phillippe: Good day, Sir Stanley of the Highlands
	1:35pm Stanley: Gents. It's a pleasure to see you aboard.
	🚂 1:35pm chris in the redwoods: that Meters cut is such a jam, and if my brain is to be trusted, is used as bed music by DJ Small Change.
	1:42pm coelacanth∅: hmmm. maybe brasil is a stop along the way. my new choice is sri lanka
	🚂 1:43pm David (in London): Wotcha Stanley. When The Meters are on and The Zig is on the drums, things get no better.
	1:43pm David Dichelle: Chris: I checked and he has played a few versions, not sure if it is an unlisted bed track then.
	🚂 1:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hallo ! ...puttering about my trap with various distractions & chores ...yet - listening & appreciating.
	1:47pm David Dichelle: Welcome, RRN!
	🚂 1:48pm Diana Senechal: "Bialystok Majn Hejm" is beautiful.
	1:50pm David Dichelle: And the singer is actually from Białystok.
	🚂 1:51pm Michael 98145: Gotta say it again. This show is -always- essential listening. Dankon.
	🚂 1:52pm Carmichael: "Białystok und Bloom, Białystok und Bloom ..."
	1:53pm David Dichelle: Thanks so much Michael!
	🚂 1:55pm dutchtheo: La France!
	1:56pm kuba: phew, made it, hey everyone!
	1:57pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Kuba!
	1:57pm kuba: @david i played last weeks show to my parents, and they very much knew Bemibem, at least
	2:00pm headcleaner: não mal, David
	2:00pm Stanley: Japan!! Am I in time?
	2:02pm TDK60: Stanley, last bets in.
	2:03pm kuba: @david as always, your Ę is flawless
	🚂 2:04pm Michael 98145: Yes. i need to revisit last week's show as well ...
	🚂 2:05pm Michael 98145: Bhutan?!
	2:05pm Stanley: Bhutan. The Buddhist Kingdom.
	🚂 2:05pm Handy Haversack: Bhutan! The happiest place on Earth, right? And archery is the national sport!
	🚂 2:05pm βrian: Charlie does cherry fillins.
	2:05pm TDK60: Bhutan, I've heard, a rare place.
	🚂 2:06pm Threemoons: Crap, I ALWAYS say Bhutan and this week I didn't. Meh. If I guess right do I get a prize? 😍
	🚂 2:06pm Michael 98145: I confess watching the archers on the Olympics broadcasts. Looks like something i might enjoy.
	2:07pm Phillippe: I was only off by a hemisphere or two
	🚂 2:07pm βrian: Our national sport is cupidity, so there's a connection there.
	2:09pm Stanley: Some time ago Bhutan only allowed 2000 tourist visas per year, at $100 per day. I don't know if that's changed. I've visited Sikkim, the Himalayan state next door a couple of times. Very friendly people.
	🚂 2:09pm βrian: "Shake that Bhut-y."
	2:09pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Kuba - and thanks for playing it for your parents. It's particularly nice that they knew it from back in the day.
	2:10pm David Dichelle: Threemoons: Big bonus points for that!
	🚂 2:11pm Handy Haversack: "Entry is free for citizens of India, Bangladesh, and the Maldives, but all other foreigners are required to sign up with a Bhutanese tour operator and pay around US$250 per day that they stay in the country, though this fee covers most travel, lodging and meal expenses." Per Wiki.
	2:11pm David Dichelle: Stanley: Wow, Sikkim! That must have been quite a place to visit.
	🚂 2:13pm Yvang: Interesting concept from the Bhutan's government : "Gross National Happiness" en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 2:14pm Michael 98145: ... something we lack
	2:23pm Phillippe: $250 a day? Damn, 2-day ticket at Disneyland is only $235!
	🚂 2:24pm Handy Haversack: Another place of controversial happiness ratings.
	🚂 2:24pm Diana Senechal: This is a dreamy Random Road! I love it.
	2:26pm David Dichelle: :-)
	🚂 2:27pm YETI BOB: Weekly meeting wrapped up, pretty painless today, back here with y'all on the random road to Bhutan. This is pretty.
	🚂 2:27pm Handy Haversack: I have to be in a meeting the last half hour of the show, but I'll be listening. Thanks, David! Keep faring forward, Voyageurs!
	🚂 2:27pm YETI BOB: HH: I get out of one meeting, you go into another. Like a revolving door.
	2:29pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Handy, happy to accompany your meeting!
	2:29pm Will in Norman: woah this sounds almost middle eastern. I'd only heard bhutanese music with indian/chinese/tibetan influence before this
	2:31pm David Dichelle: Hello Will, it is indeed an interesting sound.
	2:32pm Funky16Corners: Hey David!
	2:33pm David Dichelle: Hello Larry!

	2:42pm coelacanth∅: so beautiful

	2:46pm ChukAmok: Whoa, the Bhutan flag is quite striking. upload.wikimedia.org...
	🚂 2:47pm Michael 98145: that IS nice
	2:47pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Stanley!
	2:49pm David Dichelle: ChukAmok: Yes, I agree - it has an unusual color scheme and one that works.
	🚂 2:50pm chresti: Oh yeah, the flag is so cool!
	🚂 2:51pm dutchtheo: Thanks, David! Great Lateral random road!
	🚂 2:51pm YETI BOB: I was about to make a joke about the Bhu-Tang Clan. But this guy beat me to it soundcloud.com...
	🚂 2:52pm Carmichael: Dude wails on the Les Paul.
	🚂 2:53pm David (in London): Great set today, thanks David.
	2:53pm Phillippe: Great show, DD! Thank you for putting it together!
	🚂 2:53pm chris in the redwoods: wow! thanks, David D. that was wonderful. see y'all around.
	🚂 2:53pm Diana Senechal: Thank you, David, for a great show!
	🚂 2:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Will - yeah sounded very much like Hamza El Din playing Oud back there... Doesn't Bhutan always rate highest on the Happiness meter ? Though how they pull that off between China & Tibet I can't imagine...
	2:54pm Stanley: Wonderful stuff, as always. Thanks David. Later friends.
	2:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David! Brilliant as always tchau
	2:55pm TDK60: Fine set from Bhutan, almost lulled me down to nap. (Hmmn...) Thanks David!

	🚂 12:15pm chresti: I often feel overwhelmed, too.
	🚂 12:16pm YETI BOB: Kevin - my drummer friend got to go there and study steel pan for a few months, he loved it.
	🚂 12:16pm Michael 98145: we are more concerned about murder hornets
	12:17pm David Dichelle: Welcome aboard Chris and Michael!
	🚂 12:18pm dutchtheo: Oops, I missed the last space train, I have to stay on the earth for now, Hallo David and subway astronauts
	12:19pm David Dichelle: Hello Theo, more spacey stuff to take off with in a little while...
	12:22pm headcleaner: It's safe to say that the general public in the U.S. was, throughout the summer of 2021, much more concerned about murder hornets and UFOs than the fate of post-pullout Afghanistan
	🚂 12:25pm Yvang: Hi David and all! I will say Azerbaijan.
	12:25pm David Dichelle: Hello Headcleaner and Yvang!
	12:25pm Phillippe: Howdy! Sticking with Brazil
	12:26pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Phillippe!
	12:28pm Phillippe: DiL, Handy, chresti, YB, chris, carmichael, Brian et. al, how y'all doing?
	🚂 12:29pm Handy Haversack: This song sure is foreshadowing a bad ending. You can feel the forces of Dark Folk Song gathering. It'll all end in tears.
	🚂 12:31pm YETI BOB: I'm pretty good, Phillippe. I just came in from watering my plants, the sun is very hot today, it's like somebody just parked a giant nuclear reactor in the sky, with no shielding or anything.
	🚂 12:31pm chris in the redwoods: heya, Phillippe! enjoying a damn fine cup o joe, listening to some fine music, so can't complain about a thing. and yourself?
	🚂 12:32pm David (in London): Hey Phillippe. All good in The Smoke thanks my friend.
	🚂 12:32pm Handy Haversack: YB, should we start a letter-writing campaign to have it shut down? It sounds unsafe! Hey, Phillippe. Swotting away over here.
	12:34pm Phillippe: Definitely enjoying the tunes over here as well. The weather, not so much.
	🚂 12:36pm Handy Haversack: Trad. arr. TradArrr.
	12:37pm TDK60: A tad of mystery can remain in music, I suppose.

	12:40pm TDK60: Hi David, heading up to the forests?

	12:47pm David Dichelle: Diana: Sounds great - so many festivals over there!
	🚂 12:48pm Michael 98145: @David(iL) ... hope your country is doing a better job fighting this pandemic than we are.
	🚂 12:48pm chris in the redwoods: any gallery shows you're particularly interested in seeing, David (iL)? Helen Frankenthaler at the Gagosian looks intriguing to me.
	🚂 12:53pm Yvang: Carré Manchot is a play on words...also meaning Carrément Chaud (same pronunciation)
	12:53pm David Dichelle: Yvang: Indeed - and the description fits, I suppose.
	🚂 12:55pm Yvang: I think so!
	🚂 12:56pm Michael 98145: Turkmenistan?! "In the early 1970's, the Gunesh Ensemble begain as a part of the State TV and Radio Company of the Turkmen Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR) focused as a vocal ensemble with musical instruments mostly in support. As the group grew and changed, it retained an Oriental tradition but migrated more towards jazz-rock with some improvisation. "
	🚂 12:56pm David (in London): chris - that should be good. I want to catch the Turner exhibition at the Tate before it ends, and the Photography's Roots one at the Dulwich Picture Gallery. Should keep me going.
	12:58pm David Dichelle: Yes, back to Turkmenistan and Gunesh. The random roads often leave a trail...
	🚂 1:00pm Michael 98145: that was something
	🚂 1:01pm Diana Senechal: A Lithuanian band! I like this a lot.
	🚂 1:01pm Brian in UK: Hello David & roof riders.

	1:04pm David Dichelle: Diana: Yes, it is a group that formed from the members of a folk and folk-metal group.
	1:07pm Marie: A very jazzy "Monster" @)
	🚂 1:09pm chris in the redwoods: this Monster track reminded me of Monster Stomp by Minako Yoshida, played by Duane on the Duane Train yesterday. wonder if they're both based on the same tune...
	1:11pm coelacanth∅: greetings David and all
	1:11pm David Dichelle: It is all composed by Martin Tingvall, according to the notes.
	1:12pm David Dichelle: Salutations, Coel!
	🚂 1:15pm chris in the redwoods: i'll take a re-listen to the Yoshida track later. curious. hey, coel!
	1:16pm David Dichelle: If not, we could still attempt a Monster Mash-up.
	🚂 1:17pm Handy Haversack: Imagine the fanny pack a JAZZ Monster would have.
	1:20pm coelacanth∅: hi chris!
	1:23pm doctorjazz: Quick hi! (I remember Carlos I)
	1:24pm Phillippe: Depending on the radio station you are listening to "From Brittany" can mean totally different things...
	1:25pm coelacanth∅: now don't get toxic on us Phillippe
	1:26pm coelacanth∅: hey dr.j!
	1:28pm Marie: Bas!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	1:28pm coelacanth∅: i "randomly" choose brasil
	🚂 1:29pm chris in the redwoods: my on-board randomizer has picked South Africa
	1:29pm Phillippe: too late coel, I clocked in with that earlier
	🚂 1:29pm Handy Haversack: Hmmm. These West African tunes are making me think that Cabo Verde is not too likely to be the Random Road ...
	🚂 1:30pm chris in the redwoods: or would researching African tunes create a bias for playing more of em, Handy? hmmm....
	1:30pm David Dichelle: Hey, Dr. J.!
	1:31pm David Dichelle: I mean if I play 10 tracks from Nigeria in the second hour, it probably won't happen in the third. Or would it?
	1:32pm Stanley: Hi David and intercontinental friends
	1:32pm David Dichelle: Salut, Stanlé!
	🚂 1:32pm chris in the redwoods: i just heard "wot up party people" in my head. hehehe.
	🚂 1:33pm chris in the redwoods: hey, Stanley!
	1:33pm coelacanth∅: hey Stanley!
	🚂 1:33pm Handy Haversack: So many variables. We need a computer the size of a planet to get this answer figured out! Hey, Stanley.
	1:34pm Phillippe: Good day, Sir Stanley of the Highlands
	1:35pm Stanley: Gents. It's a pleasure to see you aboard.
	🚂 1:35pm chris in the redwoods: that Meters cut is such a jam, and if my brain is to be trusted, is used as bed music by DJ Small Change.
	1:42pm coelacanth∅: hmmm. maybe brasil is a stop along the way. my new choice is sri lanka
	🚂 1:43pm David (in London): Wotcha Stanley. When The Meters are on and The Zig is on the drums, things get no better.
	1:43pm David Dichelle: Chris: I checked and he has played a few versions, not sure if it is an unlisted bed track then.
	🚂 1:47pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Hallo ! ...puttering about my trap with various distractions & chores ...yet - listening & appreciating.

	1:57pm David Dichelle: Hey there, Kuba!
	1:57pm kuba: @david i played last weeks show to my parents, and they very much knew Bemibem, at least
	2:00pm headcleaner: não mal, David
	2:00pm Stanley: Japan!! Am I in time?
	2:02pm TDK60: Stanley, last bets in.
	2:03pm kuba: @david as always, your Ę is flawless
	🚂 2:04pm Michael 98145: Yes. i need to revisit last week's show as well ...
	🚂 2:05pm Michael 98145: Bhutan?!
	2:05pm Stanley: Bhutan. The Buddhist Kingdom.
	🚂 2:05pm Handy Haversack: Bhutan! The happiest place on Earth, right? And archery is the national sport!
	🚂 2:05pm βrian: Charlie does cherry fillins.
	2:05pm TDK60: Bhutan, I've heard, a rare place.
	🚂 2:06pm Threemoons: Crap, I ALWAYS say Bhutan and this week I didn't. Meh. If I guess right do I get a prize? 😍
	🚂 2:06pm Michael 98145: I confess watching the archers on the Olympics broadcasts. Looks like something i might enjoy.
	2:07pm Phillippe: I was only off by a hemisphere or two
	🚂 2:07pm βrian: Our national sport is cupidity, so there's a connection there.
	2:09pm Stanley: Some time ago Bhutan only allowed 2000 tourist visas per year, at $100 per day. I don't know if that's changed. I've visited Sikkim, the Himalayan state next door a couple of times. Very friendly people.
	🚂 2:09pm βrian: "Shake that Bhut-y."
	2:09pm David Dichelle: Thanks, Kuba - and thanks for playing it for your parents. It's particularly nice that they knew it from back in the day.
	2:10pm David Dichelle: Threemoons: Big bonus points for that!
	🚂 2:11pm Handy Haversack: "Entry is free for citizens of India, Bangladesh, and the Maldives, but all other foreigners are required to sign up with a Bhutanese tour operator and pay around US$250 per day that they stay in the country, though this fee covers most travel, lodging and meal expenses." Per Wiki.
	2:11pm David Dichelle: Stanley: Wow, Sikkim! That must have been quite a place to visit.
	🚂 2:13pm Yvang: Interesting concept from the Bhutan's government : "Gross National Happiness" en.wikipedia.org...
	🚂 2:14pm Michael 98145: ... something we lack
	2:23pm Phillippe: $250 a day? Damn, 2-day ticket at Disneyland is only $235!
	🚂 2:24pm Handy Haversack: Another place of controversial happiness ratings.
	🚂 2:24pm Diana Senechal: This is a dreamy Random Road! I love it.
	2:26pm David Dichelle: :-)
	🚂 2:27pm YETI BOB: Weekly meeting wrapped up, pretty painless today, back here with y'all on the random road to Bhutan. This is pretty.

	🚂 2:50pm chresti: Oh yeah, the flag is so cool!
	🚂 2:51pm dutchtheo: Thanks, David! Great Lateral random road!

	2:54pm Stanley: Wonderful stuff, as always. Thanks David. Later friends.
	2:55pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David! Brilliant as always tchau
