	8:06pm DJ Babs: At TFEB we do the nerding so you don't have to!
	8:06pm Alli B: Hi Rich!
	8:07pm Derek Westerholm: Hey there Alli, Rich Laura! Rich, fantastic, yes, please listen/read/chat to your heart's content! Laura, definitely tend to be that way over on my side of the brain... sorta... pedantic.
	8:08pm Mr Fab: My firm's apparently a bunch of communists or sumthin cuz I'm still at work, so the tuneage is much appreciated.
	8:09pm laurapanic: I looooove the details. But only about music. Most other stuff falls outta my brain.
	8:10pm Alli B: Tune!
	8:12pm DJ Babs: There can't be a TFEB without Mark E Smith apparently lol
	8:16pm Mr Fab: People (understandably) say Robyn Hitchcock, but one could make the case that The Legendary Pink Dots are as close to a modern Syd Barrett as anyone.
	8:16pm DJ Babs: I promise the show will not be this morose all the way through, hence the title, lol
	8:17pm Rich in Washington: The more morose the merrier, I say, but what do I know.
	8:21pm sufferwords: hate war- but either side of the issue you fall on Veterans need our help even the best military experience you can have will still cause trauma
	8:23pm Cameron Pretendre: I made it! Hello Echo Beachers.
	8:23pm georgewesterholm: Hello Cameron
	8:24pm Cameron Pretendre: Hi George.
	8:24pm shellioh: salut mes amies!!!

	8:26pm georgewesterholm: Babs! This Nick Storring piece is compelling!

	8:32pm DJ Babs: This Japanese Television tune makes me super duper happy
	8:36pm DJ Nico: Hola!
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Hey Nico!
	8:37pm Mr Fab: So of course I gotta ask: who's the UK's number 1 Space Surf band?
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Salut Shelli, Hello Cameron, Hey Brother, Hi Sufferwords, 'lo Fab
	8:38pm Derek Westerholm: Mr. Fab, this is a good question you ask... It might be a long debate...

	8:45pm Alli B: Oh yeah it is
	8:45pm Mr Fab: Ha, wasn't expecting The Chipmunks to crash the luau.
	8:46pm DJ Babs: right lol
	8:47pm Mr Fab: Alvin, now stop that hula dancing...ALVIN!!
	8:48pm Derek Westerholm: I'm somewhere between "melancholy reflective" & "party" in my mood for the day... Not quite sure how that works. But definitely "melancholy" is there, too
	8:49pm DJ Nico: Alli ❤️
	8:51pm VinylVillainSean: Hola!
	8:51pm Mr Fab: but...it's in 4/4 time. Change the name to "Take Four"? Naw, too confusing. You all heard DJ Rubberband Girl play The Stranglers' "Golden Brown" in the style of "Take 5" this past Monday?
	8:53pm Derek Westerholm: Hey VVSean
	8:54pm Derek Westerholm: Fab... Noooooo... Gotta check that out... I feel like Babs actually has been kicking that around in the past year... It's great... So glad that Rubberband Girl has dropped into the schedule... All the new shows are exciting!
	8:56pm Tyler: Good Evening!
	8:57pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Love this track.
	8:59pm Mr Fab: ooh, this song is evil! Setting off everyones Alexa. Incredibly, mine did not go off. Usually it's super sensitive. But now, it's like, you can't fool me, sucka.
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, good evening also to you, sir.
	8:59pm DJ Babs: Hi Sean! Hi Tyler! WELCOME!
	9:00pm DJ Babs: And yes that alexa song is pretty hilarious
	9:01pm DJ Babs: Yes Mr. Fab I have that version too! I played it on our 45rpm show!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: Is there time to queue up something by the Serbian Metal band called Night Shift after this?
	9:03pm Tyler: Hi Babs, Derek and all the Beach Bums!
	9:03pm Alli B: So dreamy
	9:03pm DJ Babs: I am a metaphoric warrior
	9:04pm Derek Westerholm: Anyone have any stories for the chatroom?
	9:05pm Derek Westerholm: Today I overheard someone say that even though her husband flew Lancaster Bombers, he was dead-set against them...
	9:05pm DJ Babs: Cameron I thought you might like this tune!
	9:08pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: @babs I do…I do like.
	9:09pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: @derek Oh do I have a story for you. It’s pretty boring mind you.
	9:09pm Derek Westerholm: Go on...
	9:09pm DJ Babs: lol there ARE NO BORING STORIES HERE
	9:09pm Alli B: When my Dad was in the RAF, he was stationed in Aden. They were so bored that they used to capture roaches and attach them to match boxes and race them
	9:10pm Derek Westerholm: Wild! Did they bet on them?
	9:10pm DJ Babs: that's pretty awesome
	9:11pm Alli B: They totally did bet on them. They’d also take care of their prize roaches 😂
	9:11pm Derek Westerholm: The roaches were probably all "what fresh hell is this? We're supposed to survive nuclear wars, and now... this?"
	9:12pm Alli B: Hahahaha!
	9:12pm Alli B: What in the fresh hell is this, always makes me laugh!
	9:13pm Derek Westerholm: Me too! This might be the first time I've used it myself, I think...
	9:13pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Boring story alert: My hands get really cracked when it gets cold out. So, I have to use hand cream to keep them not cracky / bloody. So, I went into the bathroom mid day today and put on moisturizer but then I couldn’t turn the doorknob to get out. I was trapped….with very soft hands mind you.
	9:14pm Derek Westerholm: Cameron, Lol. Though, I also empathise, of course...
	9:14pm DJ Nico: 😆 Cameron
	9:15pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Damnnn you moisturizer!!!!
	9:15pm VinylVillainSean: Love Charlie Megira

Pogues	And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda	Rum Sodomy & The Lash	WEA	1985 / 2004	CD	""And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda" is a song written by Scottish-born Australian singer-songwriter Eric Bogle in 1971. The song describes war as futile and gruesome, while criticising those who seek to glorify it. This is exemplified in the song by the account of a young Australian serviceman who is maimed during the Gallipoli Campaign of the First World War. The protagonist, who had travelled across rural Australia before the war, is emotionally devastated by the loss of his legs in battle. As the years pass he notes the death of other veterans, while the younger generation becomes apathetic to the veterans and their cause. At its conclusion, the song incorporates the melody and a few lines of lyrics of the 1895 song "Waltzing Matilda" by Australian poet Banjo Paterson."		2:08:45 (Pop-up)

	8:25pm DJ Babs: Hi George! WE got Westerholms in the house tonight! Hi Cameron! Hi Shelli!
	8:26pm georgewesterholm: Babs! This Nick Storring piece is compelling!
	8:30pm Derek Westerholm: Hello, there's lots of safe distance here in the chatroom, glad to see you all in here!!!!
	8:32pm DJ Babs: This Japanese Television tune makes me super duper happy
	8:36pm DJ Nico: Hola!
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Hey Nico!
	8:37pm Mr Fab: So of course I gotta ask: who's the UK's number 1 Space Surf band?
	8:37pm Derek Westerholm: Salut Shelli, Hello Cameron, Hey Brother, Hi Sufferwords, 'lo Fab
	8:38pm Derek Westerholm: Mr. Fab, this is a good question you ask... It might be a long debate...
	8:41pm DJ Babs: Hi Nico!!!!
	8:41pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Hey Derek.
	8:41pm DJ Babs: And of course hello Mr. Fab!!!
	8:43pm DJ Babs: This tune is very echo beach, lol
	8:44pm DJ Nico: Derek, Babs ❤️
	8:44pm DJ Babs: This tune is when the edibles kick in lol
	8:45pm Alli B: Oh yeah it is
	8:45pm Mr Fab: Ha, wasn't expecting The Chipmunks to crash the luau.
	8:46pm DJ Babs: right lol
	8:47pm Mr Fab: Alvin, now stop that hula dancing...ALVIN!!
	8:48pm Derek Westerholm: I'm somewhere between "melancholy reflective" & "party" in my mood for the day... Not quite sure how that works. But definitely "melancholy" is there, too
	8:49pm DJ Nico: Alli ❤️
	8:51pm VinylVillainSean: Hola!
	8:51pm Mr Fab: but...it's in 4/4 time. Change the name to "Take Four"? Naw, too confusing. You all heard DJ Rubberband Girl play The Stranglers' "Golden Brown" in the style of "Take 5" this past Monday?
	8:53pm Derek Westerholm: Hey VVSean
	8:54pm Derek Westerholm: Fab... Noooooo... Gotta check that out... I feel like Babs actually has been kicking that around in the past year... It's great... So glad that Rubberband Girl has dropped into the schedule... All the new shows are exciting!
	8:56pm Tyler: Good Evening!
	8:57pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Love this track.
	8:59pm Mr Fab: ooh, this song is evil! Setting off everyones Alexa. Incredibly, mine did not go off. Usually it's super sensitive. But now, it's like, you can't fool me, sucka.
	8:59pm Derek Westerholm: Tyler, good evening also to you, sir.
	8:59pm DJ Babs: Hi Sean! Hi Tyler! WELCOME!
	9:00pm DJ Babs: And yes that alexa song is pretty hilarious
	9:01pm DJ Babs: Yes Mr. Fab I have that version too! I played it on our 45rpm show!
	9:01pm Derek Westerholm: Is there time to queue up something by the Serbian Metal band called Night Shift after this?
	9:03pm Tyler: Hi Babs, Derek and all the Beach Bums!
	9:03pm Alli B: So dreamy
	9:03pm DJ Babs: I am a metaphoric warrior
	9:04pm Derek Westerholm: Anyone have any stories for the chatroom?
	9:05pm Derek Westerholm: Today I overheard someone say that even though her husband flew Lancaster Bombers, he was dead-set against them...
	9:05pm DJ Babs: Cameron I thought you might like this tune!
	9:08pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: @babs I do…I do like.
	9:09pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: @derek Oh do I have a story for you. It’s pretty boring mind you.
	9:09pm Derek Westerholm: Go on...
	9:09pm DJ Babs: lol there ARE NO BORING STORIES HERE
	9:09pm Alli B: When my Dad was in the RAF, he was stationed in Aden. They were so bored that they used to capture roaches and attach them to match boxes and race them
	9:10pm Derek Westerholm: Wild! Did they bet on them?
	9:10pm DJ Babs: that's pretty awesome
	9:11pm Alli B: They totally did bet on them. They’d also take care of their prize roaches 😂
	9:11pm Derek Westerholm: The roaches were probably all "what fresh hell is this? We're supposed to survive nuclear wars, and now... this?"
	9:12pm Alli B: Hahahaha!
	9:12pm Alli B: What in the fresh hell is this, always makes me laugh!
	9:13pm Derek Westerholm: Me too! This might be the first time I've used it myself, I think...
	9:13pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Boring story alert: My hands get really cracked when it gets cold out. So, I have to use hand cream to keep them not cracky / bloody. So, I went into the bathroom mid day today and put on moisturizer but then I couldn’t turn the doorknob to get out. I was trapped….with very soft hands mind you.
	9:14pm Derek Westerholm: Cameron, Lol. Though, I also empathise, of course...
	9:14pm DJ Nico: 😆 Cameron
	9:15pm Cameron Pretendre 🩹: Damnnn you moisturizer!!!!
	9:15pm VinylVillainSean: Love Charlie Megira
	9:15pm Alli B: Cameron 😂
