	9:11pm javakid: 10 minutes late and missed the #1 most used track on my college year mix tapes from Chris & Cosey.
	9:15pm javakid: Wasted Youth - was very surprised to see the production credit - Martin Hannett
	9:21pm TonyR: Lawn Chairs!!
	9:21pm listener 126464: Jersey Stupid!
	9:22pm listener 126464: And hello!
	9:22pm ruby: fashionably late but she's here
	9:23pm John L: Lawn Chairs!!! I saw Our Daughters Wedding open for Aztec Camera and they did this song twice. Not sure of the year, but it was in Poughkeepsie.
	🥀 9:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Mona and steady-goers!
	9:27pm listener 126464: ODW/Los Microwaves June '80 Dirt Club, Bloomfield, but I forget what happened yesterday.
	9:29pm Mona: John L, that's funny...I saw B Movie once in London, and they played Nowhere Girl and Remembrance Day twice too...people went just as nuts the second time
	9:30pm ShelbyG: so great!
	9:31pm ShelbyG: college..freshman year THIS SONG
	9:32pm Hubig Pie: Nightclubbing anthem, yo
	9:35pm javakid: for some reason I have the urge to watch Videodrome right now
	9:35pm ShelbyG: HP: it was always Sisters of Mercy for my crew..Marian xoxooxoxoxooxox
	🥀 9:36pm Ciggy: What's that French connection quote, "picking your feet in Poughkeepsie."
	9:39pm ShelbyG: javakid: I get that, re: Videodrome
	9:39pm Zach of Hackensack: dangit I missed the Nitzer Ebb
	9:39pm ShelbyG: ummmm YEAAAAHHHHHH
	9:40pm Andres: YESSSS!!!!!
	🥀 9:41pm Ciggy: Screamers of the Week: The Great Commandment Camouflage 4-Nov-87 People Are People Depeche Mode 5-Mar-84
	9:43pm John L: javakid, I often have the urge to watch Videodrome. I just got Crash, on Blu-ray and also have an urge to watch that, too. But this show is just too good. I'm sure a whole set can be derived from music influenced by J.G. Ballard, including The Normal's Warm Leatherette. Stop me before I free associate anymore.
	🥀 9:43pm NickM: I jut heard this song for the first time two days ago!
	9:44pm ShelbyG: I'm puttin' off Dune for this show. come. on.
	9:46pm Andres: You’re in the right place, Shelby. :)
	9:46pm ShelbyG: "B-sides": The Creatures "Right Now", Blancmange anything...Siouxsie or Bauhaus...Alien Sex Fiend?
	9:47pm Zach of Hackensack: I love this song so much
	9:47pm John L: Thank you internet. I was just able to look up the date I saw Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark-March 5, 1982, The Savoy NYC.
	9:47pm Zach of Hackensack: he didn't get cancelled?
	9:48pm listener 126464: Loving your 45 collection, Mona!
	9:48pm ShelbyG: Of course I am, Andres. I apologize if I was sounding bossy n' such. I started a bit earlier than normal today.
	9:49pm ShelbyG: Mona, you're delivering, my friend!
	9:52pm Andres: First saw/heard Future Islands on the 2017 Coachella webcast. Been waiting for a Canadian tour ever since.
	9:53pm ShelbyG: ugh...I love this song so much
	9:54pm Andres: I wore out this cassette!
	9:54pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I still have my 45 of this song!
	9:55pm listener 126464: (volume is UP)
	🥀 9:56pm Ciggy: I just saw a movie where some guy sings karaoke to Wishing. I remember now, "Never Rarely Sometimes Always"
	🥀 9:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: In college, one dude often would pass out drunk at parties and they would mess up his face with markers & lipstick. We would laugh when this song would come on, reminding us of the pictures we took.
	10:01pm Hubig Pie: Well, that was a fine hour of fun 45's. Big nostalgia trip. And this Roxy too......Flesh and Blood was a permanent fixture in the car cassette player
	10:03pm Toronto wfmu fan: Amazing show! Feel like I'm out having fun instead of sitting at home ordering pizza.
	🥀 10:05pm Ciggy: I Love The Big Pink song, "How Far We've Come" (feat.io echo). 1st heard it on the ending credits of Night Flight a few years back. Excellent song.
	🥀 10:05pm NickM: I save these shows for my late night drives. Mona is the Super Soul to my Kowalski.
	10:11pm Roberto: Sitting at home ordering (vegan) pizza sounds like fun to me.
	10:15pm Zach of Hackensack: hm. I haven't thought about this song in a minute.
	10:15pm Zach of Hackensack: improves on original
	10:19pm pcnyc: Jeesuz, i miss 80's music so bad. Simple, brilliant, groovy brain food. Christ. The Echo never fades.
	10:22pm Scott67: G'day Mona & Memory Lanes! 👍😎🍺🎵🎶📻🌞🌏
	10:24pm TonyR: Batman b-side from Siouxsie!
	🥀 10:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: G'day, Scott. You're well into the middle of the weekend already.
	10:29pm Scott67: G'day Ken, indeed mate! & working my way into a case of beer too. Cheers!👍😎🍻
	10:30pm Constantly Choking: nice to see ya Scott!
	10:31pm Andres: Scott, it’s prime afternoon nap time :)
	10:31pm javakid: Bailter Space really nice choice. They are right there with JPS Experience for a heavier NZ sound from the late 80s
	10:32pm javakid: and Straitjacket Fits
	10:32pm Scott67: G'day CC, you too!👍😎🎨
	10:33pm Scott67: Andres, you're reading my drowsy mind man! 👍😎🍺
	10:35pm timinoak: Such a great show. Thank you!
	10:36pm mariano: Hey, Mona, everyone!
	10:36pm Andres: Not a coincidence I think that a song called Some Candy Talking has a Jesus And Mary Chain vibe. Digging it!
	10:38pm Scott67: G'day Madge!👍😎
	10:40pm Andres: Mariano, your avatar takes on a more sinister tone as we approach the 31st.
	10:43pm donniebobb: getting on down to this. may start the skateboarding soon. possibly a bubbly beer drink. :0
	10:44pm mariano: Hey Scott! Thanks, Andres. I'm the Halloween Santa (Satan?)!
	10:45pm phat in Lincoln: You know, I probably can't hear Band of Gold too many times.
	10:46pm donniebobb: even at a divorce party?
	10:47pm Andres: Ha! Looking forward to the presents under the jack-o'-lantern, Mariano!
	10:47pm listener 126464: That's gold alright.
	10:47pm luka: JIMMY SOUL BIG TUNE
	10:48pm ruby: that cover was everything
	10:53pm mariano: Shame what Morrissey turned into, but this is such a good song.
	10:54pm Barney Grubbs: my kid is worried that you’re playing this while QE2 is in the hospital!
	10:54pm donniebobb: ugh. what a team they were
	10:54pm BH: doublechecks okay, nothing new happened in regards to Elizabeth
	10:54pm Scobot: I can still remember the day when I bought this album. Almost tripped over my shoelaces, running home to savor this release. Perfection!
	10:55pm Hubig Pie: I ignorant Halloween Santa. What did Morrissey become ?
	10:56pm Andres: I’ve lost track of my high school era Smiths t-shirts. I’ll have to ask me mum.
	🥀 10:56pm B R M: Hard at work on the annual Montclair Film Festival, but @Mona this show gives me so much life... absolute fav!
	10:57pm Scobot: He swallowed too much Oscar Wilde.
	10:57pm donniebobb: He became muscular.
	10:58pm BH: Hubig: let's just say that his lyric "We won't vote Conservative / Because we never have" left the door open to him voting UKIP?
	🥀 10:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Through reverse metamorphosis, he went from butterfly to caterpillar.
	11:01pm Andres: He became a Californian.
	11:01pm Scobot: Beautiful, Ken from Hyde Park!
	11:01pm mariano: Hubig: He turned into a hardcore anti-immigrant little-Englander. Called Chinese people subhuman along the way. I guess the warning signs were there in "Bengali in Platforms" but at the time I assumed he was singing as a persona.
	11:01pm Hubig Pie: He became a gym rat that knows the importance of being earnest ?
	11:03pm mariano: Not gonna stop me from listening to the Smiths or Viva Hate, etc, it's just unfortunate is all.
	11:06pm Mona: 100% mariano happy almost halloween everyone!
	11:07pm Mona: any of you going to wear costumes??
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Same BatChannel...
	11:08pm Hubig Pie: Did not know about any of that, but thanks Spooky Santa
	🥀 11:08pm Earl City: It took me forever to get my computer running, but I'm also pretty sad about the Morrissey trajectory. He was a big deal for me when I was a kid, but now...I don't know...it's just so awful.
	11:08pm listener 126464: Monsters of Rock
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes so, if Morrissey is so anti-immigrant, he can get his arse outta that lawn chair in L.A. & still there's a cult of Mexicans was all about him... Anyway.
	11:11pm Andres: Putting together a Luke Danes costume.
	🥀 11:12pm Earl City: I love how Mexicans have embraced the whole Morrissey/rockabilly deal. I saw him at the Hollywood Bowl and the audience was amazing - all of these Latinx kids in leather and poodle skirts, tatoos up and down. It's a real conundrum.
	🥀 11:13pm B R M: @Mona I am lucky to be married to a professional film costumer and I am a film programmer, and so our kids have very unfair Halloween costumes but we love doing it!
	11:16pm Mona: re: mexican fanbase for morrissey...when i followed him on tour in college, in LA there were actual gangs...the boy racers vs the (i forgot their name). full on greaser culture, it was kinda rad @BRM what are your kids gonna be this year??
	🥀 11:16pm B R M: It's always a surprise and movie related but I will be happy to share pics the Friday after! 😜
	11:17pm mariano: Going to see the Furs tomorrow night!
	11:17pm Mona: can't wait! i'm finally gonna be miss piggy this year. PSYCHED!
	11:18pm Mona: omg where mariano?
	🥀 11:18pm B R M: Just to give an idea, here they are couple of years back as Ingmar Bergman's THE SEVENTH SEAL www.flickr.com...
	11:18pm Andres: I’m jealous, Mariano!
	11:20pm phat in Lincoln: Taco!
	11:21pm Mona: that's amazing BRM! I gasped
	🥀 11:21pm Earl City: Super duper!
	11:22pm mariano: Mona: Tipitina's here in New Orleans. Great venue. bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com... I alway's hear Peter Boyle singing "Puttin' on the Ritz."
	11:23pm mariano: Wow, B R M, that's amazing!
	11:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh YoungFrankenstein. That's why it fits. Not that rich people in the 1920s isn't creepy anyway.
	🥀 11:24pm B R M: Thanks all! Lots more, but I'll spare you ha ... Look forward to seeing everyone out and about in costume, having fun- truly the best holiday!
	11:25pm Mona: i'm jealous mariano! let us know how it is
	11:27pm Ike-O: peace and greetings everyone! sounds like time for a clove :)
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously they could make a kids' version of the Bergman film.
	11:28pm slugluv1313: The Ghost in You <3 <3 <3 probably my favorite Furs song :) greetings, Mona! Everyone! been lurking, listening -- loving the vibes xoxoxox
	11:28pm Andres: Dead Souls is the Joy Division tribute band local to me. Always a great show.
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Man. Ian was not foolin'.
	🥀 11:29pm Earl City: Thank goodness for this.
	11:30pm mariano: Hey, slugluv!
	11:30pm Hubig Pie: Seen many a fine act on that stage mariano. The Pogues, Magnetic Fields, Alex Chilton and lotsa local gospel greats
	11:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: Clever set.
	11:31pm slugluv1313: @BRM -- AMAZING! (i am so "pale" i look like the Death character -- no make-up needed!)
	11:32pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- i am jealous too! (i remember you mentioning this and Dune, didi you get to see that?)
	🥀 11:34pm Ciggy: Vikings
	11:35pm slugluv1313: & Tipitina's looks like an amazing place to see live music!
	11:37pm mariano: Hubig: Tip's has had more than its share of legends. Last show I saw there was Lee Scratch Perry in 2018 or '19. slugluv: Yeah, saw Dune on HBO last night, was pretty cool, I thought. Tomorrow before the Furs I'm going to try to catch some of the Krewe of Boo, the Halloween parade that's like a mini-Mardi Gras. It'll be the first parade since early 2020.
	🥀 11:37pm Handy Haversack: Ciao and hearty hellos, Mona and all. We have been listening the whole time. Just also out back carving pumpkins with friends. Hey, slugluv, Ciggy, Hubig, Rev Rab, everyone! ¡Mariano, mi corazon!
	🥀 11:38pm Handy Haversack: (Also, K8 and I just did the Peter Boyle PotR as it came. We're loyal like that.)
	11:38pm mariano: Handy, mi calabaza!
	11:39pm BH: shoutout to the cat here who just jumped off the bed to start coughing up hairballs
	🥀 11:40pm Handy Haversack: Carved and glowing, Mariano.
	11:40pm Stevel: BH: Good kitty! Off the bed!
	11:41pm Carmichael: Heya Mona and Midnighters. You played Taco, and that’s good enough for me!
	11:41pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy and K8 and critters!
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Okay. Leavin' you on but going horizontal in the dark. TY.
	11:45pm E_HAT: Such a sick show tonight Mona! Thank you always
	11:46pm Stevel: Sure!
	11:46pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- going to try to catch Dune on the big screen -- but still gotta see the VU documentary! (was aiming for today, but that didn't happen) Krewe of Boo -- and Hallowe'en in NOLA in general -- sounds freaking awesome
	11:46pm slugluv1313: goodnight, RRN63!
	11:46pm Andres: Megamix!
	🥀 11:46pm Earl City: Play it all!
	11:46pm listener 126464: Of course!
	🥀 11:46pm Handy Haversack: MOAR SIOUXSIE!!!!!
	11:47pm TonyR: Don't overthink the Siouxsie. Bring on the singles!
	11:47pm ruby: the answer to more siouxsie is always yes
	11:47pm phat in Lincoln: Always more Siouxsie
	11:47pm E_HAT: SIOUXSIE
	11:47pm phat in Lincoln: Never not more Siousxie
	11:47pm slugluv1313: hiya BH! Hallowe'en hairballs buahahahahaha
	🥀 11:48pm Handy Haversack: In honor of which, I'm changing my avatar. Happy WFMU Halloween, everyone!
	🥀 11:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Siousxie, please.
	11:48pm Carmichael: I like Siouxsie and the Banshees each equally.
	11:48pm splendid: siouxsie X ∞
	11:48pm mariano: 'Night, RevRabbit! slugluv: Halloween is a really big holiday here, because of course it is.
	🥀 11:48pm Earl City: Heaven.
	11:49pm mariano: Thanks for the mention, Mona!
	🥀 11:49pm Handy Haversack: We endorse this event or product!
	11:49pm ?: swimming horses
	11:51pm Carmichael: Heya Slug.
	11:52pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- i can imagine -- NYC is decent for Hallowe'en, but Hallowe'en in New Orleans sounds like pure Heaven . . . or Hell buahahahahaha
	11:52pm Stevel: Been reflecting lately on how impressive a career Siouxsie and the Banshees had. Nice to have a refresher. I get the impression that she works hard at her music. Saw them once, around '82-3. I was a bit in awe. I was well read on the GB punks, bought the Caroline Coon book early on. That was a mind blower.
	11:53pm slugluv1313: SIOUXSIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE <3 <3 <3
	11:53pm Stevel: www.theguardian.com...
	🥀 11:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Mona. A round of ghosts for you! 👻👻👻
	🥀 11:55pm Handy Haversack: Made the first round of photos tonight in what's now a fifteen-year tradition of pumpkin carving with friends and then lights-out, candles-lit photos. I think it's my favorite thing of the entire year. Carved, lit pumpkins are just stupidly photogenic. Even I can't fuck it up.
	11:55pm ruby: Mona Lisa says #followmona
	🥀 11:56pm Handy Haversack: And thanks, Mona! Fantastic show! Many, many thanks. Keep on ghosting, everyone!
	11:56pm mariano: Great job, Handy and K8 and friends!
	11:56pm Stevel: Handy: Sounds like a worthy tradition.
	11:56pm Mona: thanks all for hanging tonight! next week is the full halloween special...hope you can make it!
	11:57pm TonyR: T. Rexxtasy!!!
	11:57pm slugluv1313: @Stevel -- great article! i still have that 1988 book too (guess i got it back in the 70s?) -- but did not know that much about Caroline Coon!
	11:58pm Hubig Pie: Nice pun'kins Handy. All things being equal, will tune in for the Halloween show
	11:58pm listener 126464: Thank you, Mona, everyone.
	11:58pm Dez DeCarlo: ❤️🔥
	🥀 11:58pm Ciggy: Hey Handy > "pumpkin carving with friends" sounds great
	11:59pm slugluv1313: so cool, Handy!
	11:59pm Stevel: Slugluv 1313. The title is plenty confusing. I'd forgotten about that future-dating shit. What a great fucking set!!
	11:59pm Andres: Thank you, Mona!!
	11:59pm slugluv1313: perfect spooky season show, Mona -- thanks so much!
	11:59pm Stevel: [standing applauding cheering]
	11:59pm mariano: Oh wow, it's time! Thank you, Mona!

	🥀 9:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Mona and steady-goers!
	9:27pm listener 126464: ODW/Los Microwaves June '80 Dirt Club, Bloomfield, but I forget what happened yesterday.
	9:29pm Mona: John L, that's funny...I saw B Movie once in London, and they played Nowhere Girl and Remembrance Day twice too...people went just as nuts the second time
	9:30pm ShelbyG: so great!
	9:31pm ShelbyG: college..freshman year THIS SONG
	9:32pm Hubig Pie: Nightclubbing anthem, yo
	9:35pm javakid: for some reason I have the urge to watch Videodrome right now
	9:35pm ShelbyG: HP: it was always Sisters of Mercy for my crew..Marian xoxooxoxoxooxox
	🥀 9:36pm Ciggy: What's that French connection quote, "picking your feet in Poughkeepsie."
	9:39pm ShelbyG: javakid: I get that, re: Videodrome
	9:39pm Zach of Hackensack: dangit I missed the Nitzer Ebb
	9:39pm ShelbyG: ummmm YEAAAAHHHHHH
	9:40pm Andres: YESSSS!!!!!
	🥀 9:41pm Ciggy: Screamers of the Week: The Great Commandment Camouflage 4-Nov-87 People Are People Depeche Mode 5-Mar-84
	9:43pm John L: javakid, I often have the urge to watch Videodrome. I just got Crash, on Blu-ray and also have an urge to watch that, too. But this show is just too good. I'm sure a whole set can be derived from music influenced by J.G. Ballard, including The Normal's Warm Leatherette. Stop me before I free associate anymore.
	🥀 9:43pm NickM: I jut heard this song for the first time two days ago!
	9:44pm ShelbyG: I'm puttin' off Dune for this show. come. on.
	9:46pm Andres: You’re in the right place, Shelby. :)
	9:46pm ShelbyG: "B-sides": The Creatures "Right Now", Blancmange anything...Siouxsie or Bauhaus...Alien Sex Fiend?
	9:47pm Zach of Hackensack: I love this song so much
	9:47pm John L: Thank you internet. I was just able to look up the date I saw Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark-March 5, 1982, The Savoy NYC.
	9:47pm Zach of Hackensack: he didn't get cancelled?
	9:48pm listener 126464: Loving your 45 collection, Mona!
	9:48pm ShelbyG: Of course I am, Andres. I apologize if I was sounding bossy n' such. I started a bit earlier than normal today.
	9:49pm ShelbyG: Mona, you're delivering, my friend!
	9:52pm Andres: First saw/heard Future Islands on the 2017 Coachella webcast. Been waiting for a Canadian tour ever since.
	9:53pm ShelbyG: ugh...I love this song so much
	9:54pm Andres: I wore out this cassette!
	9:54pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I still have my 45 of this song!
	9:55pm listener 126464: (volume is UP)
	🥀 9:56pm Ciggy: I just saw a movie where some guy sings karaoke to Wishing. I remember now, "Never Rarely Sometimes Always"
	🥀 9:56pm Ken From Hyde Park: In college, one dude often would pass out drunk at parties and they would mess up his face with markers & lipstick. We would laugh when this song would come on, reminding us of the pictures we took.
	10:01pm Hubig Pie: Well, that was a fine hour of fun 45's. Big nostalgia trip. And this Roxy too......Flesh and Blood was a permanent fixture in the car cassette player
	10:03pm Toronto wfmu fan: Amazing show! Feel like I'm out having fun instead of sitting at home ordering pizza.
	🥀 10:05pm Ciggy: I Love The Big Pink song, "How Far We've Come" (feat.io echo). 1st heard it on the ending credits of Night Flight a few years back. Excellent song.
	🥀 10:05pm NickM: I save these shows for my late night drives. Mona is the Super Soul to my Kowalski.
	10:11pm Roberto: Sitting at home ordering (vegan) pizza sounds like fun to me.
	10:15pm Zach of Hackensack: hm. I haven't thought about this song in a minute.
	10:15pm Zach of Hackensack: improves on original
	10:19pm pcnyc: Jeesuz, i miss 80's music so bad. Simple, brilliant, groovy brain food. Christ. The Echo never fades.
	10:22pm Scott67: G'day Mona & Memory Lanes! 👍😎🍺🎵🎶📻🌞🌏
	10:24pm TonyR: Batman b-side from Siouxsie!
	🥀 10:26pm Ken From Hyde Park: G'day, Scott. You're well into the middle of the weekend already.
	10:29pm Scott67: G'day Ken, indeed mate! & working my way into a case of beer too. Cheers!👍😎🍻
	10:30pm Constantly Choking: nice to see ya Scott!
	10:31pm Andres: Scott, it’s prime afternoon nap time :)
	10:31pm javakid: Bailter Space really nice choice. They are right there with JPS Experience for a heavier NZ sound from the late 80s
	10:32pm javakid: and Straitjacket Fits
	10:32pm Scott67: G'day CC, you too!👍😎🎨
	10:33pm Scott67: Andres, you're reading my drowsy mind man! 👍😎🍺
	10:35pm timinoak: Such a great show. Thank you!
	10:36pm mariano: Hey, Mona, everyone!
	10:36pm Andres: Not a coincidence I think that a song called Some Candy Talking has a Jesus And Mary Chain vibe. Digging it!
	10:38pm Scott67: G'day Madge!👍😎
	10:40pm Andres: Mariano, your avatar takes on a more sinister tone as we approach the 31st.
	10:43pm donniebobb: getting on down to this. may start the skateboarding soon. possibly a bubbly beer drink. :0
	10:44pm mariano: Hey Scott! Thanks, Andres. I'm the Halloween Santa (Satan?)!
	10:45pm phat in Lincoln: You know, I probably can't hear Band of Gold too many times.
	10:46pm donniebobb: even at a divorce party?
	10:47pm Andres: Ha! Looking forward to the presents under the jack-o'-lantern, Mariano!
	10:47pm listener 126464: That's gold alright.
	10:47pm luka: JIMMY SOUL BIG TUNE
	10:48pm ruby: that cover was everything
	10:53pm mariano: Shame what Morrissey turned into, but this is such a good song.
	10:54pm Barney Grubbs: my kid is worried that you’re playing this while QE2 is in the hospital!
	10:54pm donniebobb: ugh. what a team they were
	10:54pm BH: doublechecks okay, nothing new happened in regards to Elizabeth
	10:54pm Scobot: I can still remember the day when I bought this album. Almost tripped over my shoelaces, running home to savor this release. Perfection!
	10:55pm Hubig Pie: I ignorant Halloween Santa. What did Morrissey become ?
	10:56pm Andres: I’ve lost track of my high school era Smiths t-shirts. I’ll have to ask me mum.
	🥀 10:56pm B R M: Hard at work on the annual Montclair Film Festival, but @Mona this show gives me so much life... absolute fav!
	10:57pm Scobot: He swallowed too much Oscar Wilde.
	10:57pm donniebobb: He became muscular.
	10:58pm BH: Hubig: let's just say that his lyric "We won't vote Conservative / Because we never have" left the door open to him voting UKIP?
	🥀 10:59pm Ken From Hyde Park: Through reverse metamorphosis, he went from butterfly to caterpillar.
	11:01pm Andres: He became a Californian.
	11:01pm Scobot: Beautiful, Ken from Hyde Park!
	11:01pm mariano: Hubig: He turned into a hardcore anti-immigrant little-Englander. Called Chinese people subhuman along the way. I guess the warning signs were there in "Bengali in Platforms" but at the time I assumed he was singing as a persona.
	11:01pm Hubig Pie: He became a gym rat that knows the importance of being earnest ?
	11:03pm mariano: Not gonna stop me from listening to the Smiths or Viva Hate, etc, it's just unfortunate is all.
	11:06pm Mona: 100% mariano happy almost halloween everyone!
	11:07pm Mona: any of you going to wear costumes??
	11:07pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...Same BatChannel...
	11:08pm Hubig Pie: Did not know about any of that, but thanks Spooky Santa
	🥀 11:08pm Earl City: It took me forever to get my computer running, but I'm also pretty sad about the Morrissey trajectory. He was a big deal for me when I was a kid, but now...I don't know...it's just so awful.
	11:08pm listener 126464: Monsters of Rock
	11:09pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes so, if Morrissey is so anti-immigrant, he can get his arse outta that lawn chair in L.A. & still there's a cult of Mexicans was all about him... Anyway.
	11:11pm Andres: Putting together a Luke Danes costume.
	🥀 11:12pm Earl City: I love how Mexicans have embraced the whole Morrissey/rockabilly deal. I saw him at the Hollywood Bowl and the audience was amazing - all of these Latinx kids in leather and poodle skirts, tatoos up and down. It's a real conundrum.
	🥀 11:13pm B R M: @Mona I am lucky to be married to a professional film costumer and I am a film programmer, and so our kids have very unfair Halloween costumes but we love doing it!
	11:16pm Mona: re: mexican fanbase for morrissey...when i followed him on tour in college, in LA there were actual gangs...the boy racers vs the (i forgot their name). full on greaser culture, it was kinda rad @BRM what are your kids gonna be this year??
	🥀 11:16pm B R M: It's always a surprise and movie related but I will be happy to share pics the Friday after! 😜
	11:17pm mariano: Going to see the Furs tomorrow night!
	11:17pm Mona: can't wait! i'm finally gonna be miss piggy this year. PSYCHED!
	11:18pm Mona: omg where mariano?
	🥀 11:18pm B R M: Just to give an idea, here they are couple of years back as Ingmar Bergman's THE SEVENTH SEAL www.flickr.com...
	11:18pm Andres: I’m jealous, Mariano!
	11:20pm phat in Lincoln: Taco!
	11:21pm Mona: that's amazing BRM! I gasped
	🥀 11:21pm Earl City: Super duper!
	11:22pm mariano: Mona: Tipitina's here in New Orleans. Great venue. bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com... I alway's hear Peter Boyle singing "Puttin' on the Ritz."
	11:23pm mariano: Wow, B R M, that's amazing!
	11:24pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Oh YoungFrankenstein. That's why it fits. Not that rich people in the 1920s isn't creepy anyway.
	🥀 11:24pm B R M: Thanks all! Lots more, but I'll spare you ha ... Look forward to seeing everyone out and about in costume, having fun- truly the best holiday!
	11:25pm Mona: i'm jealous mariano! let us know how it is
	11:27pm Ike-O: peace and greetings everyone! sounds like time for a clove :)
	11:27pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Seriously they could make a kids' version of the Bergman film.
	11:28pm slugluv1313: The Ghost in You <3 <3 <3 probably my favorite Furs song :) greetings, Mona! Everyone! been lurking, listening -- loving the vibes xoxoxox
	11:28pm Andres: Dead Souls is the Joy Division tribute band local to me. Always a great show.
	11:29pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Man. Ian was not foolin'.
	🥀 11:29pm Earl City: Thank goodness for this.
	11:30pm mariano: Hey, slugluv!
	11:30pm Hubig Pie: Seen many a fine act on that stage mariano. The Pogues, Magnetic Fields, Alex Chilton and lotsa local gospel greats
	11:31pm ledzeppelinsucks: Clever set.
	11:31pm slugluv1313: @BRM -- AMAZING! (i am so "pale" i look like the Death character -- no make-up needed!)
	11:32pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- i am jealous too! (i remember you mentioning this and Dune, didi you get to see that?)
	🥀 11:34pm Ciggy: Vikings
	11:35pm slugluv1313: & Tipitina's looks like an amazing place to see live music!
	11:37pm mariano: Hubig: Tip's has had more than its share of legends. Last show I saw there was Lee Scratch Perry in 2018 or '19. slugluv: Yeah, saw Dune on HBO last night, was pretty cool, I thought. Tomorrow before the Furs I'm going to try to catch some of the Krewe of Boo, the Halloween parade that's like a mini-Mardi Gras. It'll be the first parade since early 2020.
	🥀 11:37pm Handy Haversack: Ciao and hearty hellos, Mona and all. We have been listening the whole time. Just also out back carving pumpkins with friends. Hey, slugluv, Ciggy, Hubig, Rev Rab, everyone! ¡Mariano, mi corazon!
	🥀 11:38pm Handy Haversack: (Also, K8 and I just did the Peter Boyle PotR as it came. We're loyal like that.)
	11:38pm mariano: Handy, mi calabaza!
	11:39pm BH: shoutout to the cat here who just jumped off the bed to start coughing up hairballs
	🥀 11:40pm Handy Haversack: Carved and glowing, Mariano.
	11:40pm Stevel: BH: Good kitty! Off the bed!
	11:41pm Carmichael: Heya Mona and Midnighters. You played Taco, and that’s good enough for me!
	11:41pm slugluv1313: hiya Handy and K8 and critters!
	11:45pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Okay. Leavin' you on but going horizontal in the dark. TY.
	11:45pm E_HAT: Such a sick show tonight Mona! Thank you always
	11:46pm Stevel: Sure!
	11:46pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- going to try to catch Dune on the big screen -- but still gotta see the VU documentary! (was aiming for today, but that didn't happen) Krewe of Boo -- and Hallowe'en in NOLA in general -- sounds freaking awesome
	11:46pm slugluv1313: goodnight, RRN63!
	11:46pm Andres: Megamix!
	🥀 11:46pm Earl City: Play it all!
	11:46pm listener 126464: Of course!
	🥀 11:46pm Handy Haversack: MOAR SIOUXSIE!!!!!
	11:47pm TonyR: Don't overthink the Siouxsie. Bring on the singles!
	11:47pm ruby: the answer to more siouxsie is always yes
	11:47pm phat in Lincoln: Always more Siouxsie
	11:47pm E_HAT: SIOUXSIE
	11:47pm phat in Lincoln: Never not more Siousxie
	11:47pm slugluv1313: hiya BH! Hallowe'en hairballs buahahahahaha
	🥀 11:48pm Handy Haversack: In honor of which, I'm changing my avatar. Happy WFMU Halloween, everyone!
	🥀 11:48pm Ken From Hyde Park: Siousxie, please.
	11:48pm Carmichael: I like Siouxsie and the Banshees each equally.
	11:48pm splendid: siouxsie X ∞
	11:48pm mariano: 'Night, RevRabbit! slugluv: Halloween is a really big holiday here, because of course it is.
	🥀 11:48pm Earl City: Heaven.
	11:49pm mariano: Thanks for the mention, Mona!
	🥀 11:49pm Handy Haversack: We endorse this event or product!
	11:49pm ?: swimming horses
	11:51pm Carmichael: Heya Slug.
	11:52pm slugluv1313: @mariano -- i can imagine -- NYC is decent for Hallowe'en, but Hallowe'en in New Orleans sounds like pure Heaven . . . or Hell buahahahahaha
	11:52pm Stevel: Been reflecting lately on how impressive a career Siouxsie and the Banshees had. Nice to have a refresher. I get the impression that she works hard at her music. Saw them once, around '82-3. I was a bit in awe. I was well read on the GB punks, bought the Caroline Coon book early on. That was a mind blower.
	11:53pm slugluv1313: SIOUXSIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE <3 <3 <3
	11:53pm Stevel: www.theguardian.com...
	🥀 11:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Mona. A round of ghosts for you! 👻👻👻
	🥀 11:55pm Handy Haversack: Made the first round of photos tonight in what's now a fifteen-year tradition of pumpkin carving with friends and then lights-out, candles-lit photos. I think it's my favorite thing of the entire year. Carved, lit pumpkins are just stupidly photogenic. Even I can't fuck it up.
	11:55pm ruby: Mona Lisa says #followmona
	🥀 11:56pm Handy Haversack: And thanks, Mona! Fantastic show! Many, many thanks. Keep on ghosting, everyone!
	11:56pm mariano: Great job, Handy and K8 and friends!
	11:56pm Stevel: Handy: Sounds like a worthy tradition.
	11:56pm Mona: thanks all for hanging tonight! next week is the full halloween special...hope you can make it!
	11:57pm TonyR: T. Rexxtasy!!!
	11:57pm slugluv1313: @Stevel -- great article! i still have that 1988 book too (guess i got it back in the 70s?) -- but did not know that much about Caroline Coon!
	11:58pm Hubig Pie: Nice pun'kins Handy. All things being equal, will tune in for the Halloween show
	11:58pm listener 126464: Thank you, Mona, everyone.
	11:58pm Dez DeCarlo: ❤️🔥
	🥀 11:58pm Ciggy: Hey Handy > "pumpkin carving with friends" sounds great
	11:59pm slugluv1313: so cool, Handy!
	11:59pm Stevel: Slugluv 1313. The title is plenty confusing. I'd forgotten about that future-dating shit. What a great fucking set!!
	11:59pm Andres: Thank you, Mona!!
	11:59pm slugluv1313: perfect spooky season show, Mona -- thanks so much!
	11:59pm Stevel: [standing applauding cheering]
	11:59pm mariano: Oh wow, it's time! Thank you, Mona!
