	12:26pm Mister Dobalina: Gosh, 1995.
	12:27pm Van: stukas over disneyland is one of the best album covers ever
	♥ 12:36pm tim from washington: Hi efd and crew! I'm bummed I missed the Paybacks. Bring on the Payybacks revival, efd!
	12:38pm Miss G: listener phillip, I'm not trying to be scary, but, real: if this is your last day, then, listen to music and enjoy it. (of course, this is not your last day! you will be good! I believe it!) But, I am imagining someone on his last day, and he listened to music, and then BAM it was over. But, music, it _lives on_ even after him.
	♥ 12:41pm Handy Haversack: Soursob seems like it's gonna have to get picked up.
	♥ 12:43pm PaulRobeson1920: Good stuff EFD
	12:44pm HyperDose: @Handy If it's Olivia and efd approved, you know what needs to be done!
	♥ 12:47pm tim from washington: I dug the Soursob too. Hozac does not let you down.
	12:49pm Miss G: I'm so sorry and I'm so tired. But this is for anyone who has anxiety, it helps me a lot, from "London Road" " ah ha HA!" I sing that all time: www.youtube.com...
	12:52pm egould310: Des Demonas good band name.
	12:53pm Mister Dobalina: Clicky star fav material, if I've ever heard it before!
	12:57pm Andrew Hollywood: good old soursob
	♥ 12:58pm tim from washington: Do the Des Demonas have a member of Kid Congo's Pink Monkey Birds in it?
	12:59pm P-90: broadcasting from “Sauna A” today? Or “Sauna B”?
	♥ 1:00pm full_english_breakfast: heh i believe matt was also complaining about the temparature in the studio with the door closed yesterday
	1:00pm FletcherNYC: Background noise just sounds like something Fabio or Bryce would play
	♥ 1:01pm tim from washington: Speaking of heat, is "Snake" Davies going to make a cameo for a Budgie tribute?
	♥ 1:02pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, 126464, Handy, B.P. McDoggy, Jalapeño HyperDose, all! Whew this round the clock listening is wearing me out!!
	♥ 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Aye, Jack!
	♥ 1:03pm efd: @tim Unfortunately I am ill (i.e., not) prepared for a Budgie tribute. I meant to pull something yesterday and then forgot about it.
	♥ 1:04pm Hoboken Jack: Slight Bats feel to this Overlord single, nice!
	♥ 1:04pm efd: @Hoboken Jack you're gonna have to change your name to 24-Hour Jack!
	♥ 1:04pm efd: @tim I think you're onto something with thhat Kid Congo connection, that's ringing a distant bell.
	♥ 1:06pm Handy Haversack: efd, if you have a chance, new kitten pix are in my profile. They're little outlaws, they are!
	♥ 1:07pm listener 126464: Cheers Jack!
	♥ 1:08pm dale: hey now. this song reminds me of the good rats 'advertisement in the voice.'
	♥ 1:09pm listener 126464: Great comp
	♥ 1:09pm dale: oh man, i asked topt for the dickies this morning and missed it when you played them!
	1:10pm HyperDose: Afternoon, Jack!
	♥ 1:12pm efd: @dale Funny, I had that Dickies single with me yesterday morning but didn't get to it!
	♥ 1:12pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw The Dickies open for The Offspring. Dude made a comment about how he was so old that back in his day, Green Day were touring under their original name, The Ramones. Ha. Also, The Dickies were _way_ better then The Offspring.
	♥ 1:13pm Hoboken Jack: BeLUga
	♥ 1:15pm Mark Hurst: Wikipedia and Instagram in the same song!
	♥ 1:16pm efd: @Mark I should have tipped you off about this song!
	♥ 1:17pm efd: there was another song I heard recently that I thought might be good for Techtonic but now I can't remeber it. I'll let you know if I think of it again!
	♥ 1:17pm Mark Hurst: Thanks! If I play this one as an outtro I will give you full credit!
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: "Names, Tags, Numbers and Labels" was a fabulous tune from the Association. Excellent singers and a great arrangement.
	♥ 1:19pm tim from washington: Man, that Association song was great. As time goes by the more I love the 60s vocal pop groups.
	♥ 1:20pm Hoboken Jack: yessssss
	1:20pm Derek in Atlantic City: Bulbous Bouffant
	♥ 1:20pm Hoboken Jack: Mama!
	1:21pm Andrew Hollywood: sampling beluga

	♥ 1:23pm Hoboken Jack: Of the Overlord membership, only Tris McCall is a NJ resident.
	♥ 1:24pm efd: thanks Jack!
	1:25pm Sybil: Hi efd. These noon shows still seem like the middle of the night to me. Just wanted to say I got myy Ca v aller lp the other day and I am playing the h*** out of it.
	♥ 1:27pm dale: nice one!
	♥ 1:27pm efd: ooh, glad to hear that Sybil!
	♥ 1:27pm dale: haven't heard this in many years.
	1:27pm prudy: reminding me of Beantown...
	♥ 1:28pm tim from washington: J Geils!
	1:28pm egould310: High quality 1970’s music production on this J Geils tune. Nothing else quite sounds like this.
	1:29pm Sybil: J Geils always goes down smooth
	♥ 1:30pm Hoboken Pete: j.geils was so big growing up in CT. Were they as popular elsewhere (pre-Centerfold)?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: i thought this guy's Anus was the Center Hole?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: should have stayed in Connecticut
	1:31pm FletcherNYC: You get it @Derek
	♥ 1:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Peter Wolf has put out some pretty fine records post-Geils.
	1:31pm prudy: in Boston they were always big...
	♥ 1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @prudy: I saw them at UMaine (Freeze Frame tour). SO much fun!
	♥ 1:34pm prof.fuzz: Oh. This the red stains track is doing it for me!
	♥ 1:35pm prof.fuzz: @EFD: The bandcamp link for red stains is going to hits cielo nublado...
	1:36pm prudy: never saw them but their music was ever present in my adolescence around Boston...
	♥ 1:36pm efd: oh whoops! Thanks, I'll fix it in a moment.
	1:36pm winston legthigh: hi efd. this is really great. reminds me of esg drums.
	♥ 1:37pm efd: @prudy Agree, J. Geils Band was inescapable in the Boston area in the '70s (not that I was trying to escape them).
	♥ 1:37pm prof.fuzz: totally selfish and lazy on my part. i'm gonna buy the red stains single...without bothering to look up their bandcamp on my own!
	1:38pm egould310: Don’t tell anyone to smile. In fact everyone just leave everybody alone. Especially me.
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @prof.fuzz But by pointing it out you've paved the way for purchases by people less industrious than yourself!
	1:39pm DJ Guin: Peter Wolff does NOT get a pass for marrying Faye Dunaway...go fact check it..i can wait
	1:41pm Andrew Hollywood: more florry!
	♥ 1:43pm Hoboken Jack: I have just liked Florry on all the socials!
	1:45pm morphe': Why is J Geils so much airplay of late???
	♥ 1:46pm chris_in_space: Mike Lupica please return to the FMU airwaves!
	1:47pm morphe': mike Lupica = in all the FMU Record Fair flusters/chatoic moments ... ML was always so calm....
	♥ 1:50pm vinylmonkee: Ohhh! Nice Mario Hernandez project! (Kids on a Crime Spree)
	♥ 1:51pm listener 126464: Reflectors yeah!
	♥ 1:51pm efd: @vinylmonkee Yes, Mario is the best!
	♥ 1:53pm Figgsrock: Was just listening to the Toy (Box) before your show EFD.
	1:54pm Carmichael: What version is this? I have what I thought was the original Lower Third version.
	1:55pm Sybil: I miss David bowie. It all went bad then.
	♥ 1:55pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--its from the previously unreleased Toy album recorded in 2000 that was released as part of the Brilliant Adventures box set in Nov. and as a standalone set last Friday.
	1:56pm Carmichael: Guitarist is taking some liberties here. I prefer the poppy original ...
	1:56pm Sybil: This song is amazing tho
	1:57pm prudy: efd: you're from Dover/Weston? I grew up in Needham...
	1:57pm Sybil: The Funky Western Civilization
	♥ 1:58pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but TONIO K!! One of my favorite albums ever!
	1:58pm Sybil: EFD You are the best of the best
	♥ 1:58pm efd: @Figgsrock thank you for that concise explanation, I've been having a hard time untangling what that release is exactly!
	1:59pm Sybil: Jeanne D’arc veult dire une chose…
	1:59pm jim from wood ridge NJ: Wow what a song!!
	♥ 2:00pm Figgsrock: @efd--you're welcome!
	2:03pm Sybil: Tu peut emmerder le boulanger et avoir son pain Tu peut te tirer de les joux, tous, sauf un
	2:04pm DJ Guin: www.youtube.com...
	2:06pm Miss Georgia Peach: Mites
	2:07pm Cosmo in Seattle: Silverfish eat paper.
	♥ 2:07pm prof.fuzz: I don't think this Mad Rollers album is on bandcamp. They had a 7" on Sister Raygun Records in 2020, but I'm not finding that on bandcamp right now either. Hmmmm...
	2:07pm Sybil: * ton, pas son.
	2:08pm Sybil: I have a whole hour’s Playlist opening off Tonio K
	2:08pm ChukAmok: Hey, Kids on a Crime Spree are my good pals Mario, Becky, and Bill! Nice!
	♥ 2:08pm tim from washington: Hey prof.fuzz!
	2:09pm DJ Guin: Disintegration? it's a CURE LP
	♥ 2:09pm prof.fuzz: Hey Tim! Shameless pimping of another Italian band that I dig: Pre-Cog in the Bunker precoginthebunker.bandcamp.com...
	2:09pm Sybil: Tonio K will rock you, efd.
	♥ 2:11pm Figgsrock: @EFD--With that Bowie you basically just did what radio stations have been doing with my day job stuff for 26 years!
	♥ 2:11pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the reminder, prof.fuzz! Hollywood Horses! Dynamite!
	2:11pm Sybil: Anyone who can fake a quote from Joan of Arc deserves a second hearing. this
	♥ 2:12pm efd: @Figgsrock Nice, thank you for sharing with lowly WFMU! :)
	♥ 2:12pm prof.fuzz: Hey Handy!
	2:13pm DJ Guin: for a second there...thought this was Susanna Hoffs trying to keep her career going...nope. philadelphiaweekly.com...
	♥ 2:13pm efd: @prudy I grew up in the MetroWest area, as they started calling it after I left for college. Lived in Weston when I was little, then moved to a neighboring town.
	2:13pm Robm: After lurking on the comment board and reading them, I can’t believe how much knowledge i am reading, learn something new everyday
	♥ 2:15pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Robm: Welcome to MusicNerdCentral(tm)!
	2:16pm Robm: @Woods not only are the djs music geeks, so ate some of the chatter’s
	2:23pm DJ Guin: producers who put out this drivel should be sued for fraud and theft. Jon's Mom thinks he's "talented"
	♥ 2:23pm Handy Haversack: You'd mentioned Precog in the Bunker before, prof.fuzz, and I'd forgotten to wishlist it. Rectified! I also can't shake the idea that their name comes from a specific (terrible) Piers Anthony novel. I wasted my youth.
	♥ 2:23pm tim from washington: Who's this with the Vince Furnier/Alice Cooper growl?
	♥ 2:24pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Philip K. Dick's story “The Minority Report"
	♥ 2:24pm efd: @DJ Guin no one's forcing you to listen.
	♥ 2:26pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: WHEW!
	2:28pm DJ Guin: @efd - i will make note of that shade
	2:29pm DJ Guin: bye kids
	♥ 2:32pm Hoboken Jack: Symon spelled the cool Sixties way with a Y.
	2:34pm Qibote: :-) Today 'stumbled' upon 50 grs of old, but smelling great, outdoor weed. Just made butter from it. Soon it will be Cookies!
	2:35pm HyperDose: Later, Guin Don't forget the chocolate chips, Qibote!
	2:36pm Qibote: Don't get me wrong - it's anti Covid medicine! Nope - chocolate chunks will definitely go in
	2:36pm morphe': Handy : "(terrible) Piers Anthony" = poorly written or disturbing??? Never read .. did read most PK Dick ... There are 6-8 that are not SciFi that are oddly interesting ... slow moving psycho dramas...
	2:38pm Andrew Hollywood: I do recommend the Philadelphia Weekly interview that Brak posted.
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty sure that another track from Allhallowtide was the first 2022 release played on WFMU in 2022. Stork Club on 1/2. Sounds great. morph: With Piers Anthony, it ends up being always both.
	2:39pm HyperDose: I knew I liked this Luxembourg Signal track from the intro alone. Gorgeous.
	♥ 2:39pm Handy Haversack: Andrew Hollywood: opened in a new tab so it will be ready for me when I can finally stop working and pour a damn drink!
	2:40pm morphe': PK Dick " Between 1952-1960 Dick wrote nine literary novels hoping to be accepted as a mainstream writer, a during the 1950s he struggled to pay bills by selling science fiction short stories to the dying pulp magazine market. Between 1955-1960 he published eight science fiction novels, and all but one went to Ace Books, a low rent paperback publisher. His one hardback success during that time, Time Out of Joint, was published in 1959 by Lippincott, and it is a science fiction story that leans towards the literary. I imagined that made him very happy." https://www.sfsignal.com/archives/2015/12/the-literary-novels-of-philip-k-dick/
	2:40pm winston legthigh: the jon symon 7" is going for $17.49 on ebay.
	♥ 2:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is Mark E. Smith's cranky nephew
	♥ 2:43pm tim from washington: I love the PK Dick non-SF novels. Total bummer vibes. He captures anger, paranoia and desperation so well.
	2:45pm morphe': Not unlike PK Dick: John Sayles made crap films to finance his heartfelt projects: Pirahanna (original) AlliGator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_(1978_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alligator_(film)
	2:46pm Andrew Hollywood: Handy, I always recommend pouring a drink.
	2:48pm morphe': Tim WA - the news reports/articles and details of Dick's paranoia are striking...
	2:48pm winston legthigh: good advice andrew hollywood. handy!
	2:49pm Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Evan!
	♥ 2:49pm Handy Haversack: winston! Wooo, this set is on fire, efd!
	2:49pm morphe': LAURICE !!!!!!!
	2:50pm winston legthigh: is this roger daltrey?
	2:50pm ChukAmok: @Andrew Hollywood Are you of any relation to Luke Hollywood, formerly of the New Bad Things?
	♥ 2:50pm Hoboken Jack: Don't know Laurice but this is a great voice!
	2:52pm morphe': HBO J - Laurice arrived I guess in the FMU in box and came and did a live Record Fair ... I thought he was UK but I think he is Canada...
	2:52pm Andrew Hollywood: @ChukAmok Sadly, Luke Hollywood and I are so estranged that we are not even related or have ever met in the first place.
	2:53pm morphe': HOBO JACK - that was spellCrap - no disrespect !!!
	♥ 2:53pm Hoboken Jack: Thanks morf!
	♥ 2:53pm Hoboken Jack: Haha no worries, I watch a lot of Home Box
	♥ 2:54pm radioronan: Excellent show today Evan..Thanks..and thanks for fill in show yesterday morn'!
	♥ 2:54pm vinylmonkee: Thanks EFD!
	♥ 2:55pm dale: hobo jack - here's one of his best. www.youtube.com...
	♥ 2:55pm Handy Haversack: This went too damn fast. Thanks, efd! Great stuff! Take it easy, everyone. But take it!
	♥ 2:55pm Stephen O: Thank you, EFD! Viva Laurice!
	♥ 2:56pm Hoboken Jack: Interesting to see the players on the Donovan's Brain albums, as I felt a bit of Stamey. Thanks EFD for all the great new stuff this week!!
	♥ 2:56pm pollypinocle: fun show, Evan! Thanks as always!
	2:56pm morphe': Thanks Evan and all !!!!!

	2:58pm Andrew Hollywood: Mick Shrimpton: “The law of averages says I will survive.”
	2:58pm Qibote: thx Evan. - damn WFMU is pretty addictive. Since i found it friday - been listening almost all my waking hours.....
	2:58pm Barefoot Jimmy G: Mick Shrimpton
	2:58pm ChukAmok: @Andrew Hollywood. That's too bad. Luke is real good people, as I am sure you are as well.

	12:38pm Miss G: listener phillip, I'm not trying to be scary, but, real: if this is your last day, then, listen to music and enjoy it. (of course, this is not your last day! you will be good! I believe it!) But, I am imagining someone on his last day, and he listened to music, and then BAM it was over. But, music, it _lives on_ even after him.

	12:53pm Mister Dobalina: Clicky star fav material, if I've ever heard it before!
	12:57pm Andrew Hollywood: good old soursob
	♥ 12:58pm tim from washington: Do the Des Demonas have a member of Kid Congo's Pink Monkey Birds in it?
	12:59pm P-90: broadcasting from “Sauna A” today? Or “Sauna B”?
	♥ 1:00pm full_english_breakfast: heh i believe matt was also complaining about the temparature in the studio with the door closed yesterday
	1:00pm FletcherNYC: Background noise just sounds like something Fabio or Bryce would play
	♥ 1:01pm tim from washington: Speaking of heat, is "Snake" Davies going to make a cameo for a Budgie tribute?
	♥ 1:02pm Hoboken Jack: Hi EFD, 126464, Handy, B.P. McDoggy, Jalapeño HyperDose, all! Whew this round the clock listening is wearing me out!!
	♥ 1:03pm Handy Haversack: Aye, Jack!

	♥ 1:04pm efd: @tim I think you're onto something with thhat Kid Congo connection, that's ringing a distant bell.
	♥ 1:06pm Handy Haversack: efd, if you have a chance, new kitten pix are in my profile. They're little outlaws, they are!

	♥ 1:12pm efd: @dale Funny, I had that Dickies single with me yesterday morning but didn't get to it!
	♥ 1:12pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): I saw The Dickies open for The Offspring. Dude made a comment about how he was so old that back in his day, Green Day were touring under their original name, The Ramones. Ha. Also, The Dickies were _way_ better then The Offspring.
	♥ 1:13pm Hoboken Jack: BeLUga
	♥ 1:15pm Mark Hurst: Wikipedia and Instagram in the same song!
	♥ 1:16pm efd: @Mark I should have tipped you off about this song!
	♥ 1:17pm efd: there was another song I heard recently that I thought might be good for Techtonic but now I can't remeber it. I'll let you know if I think of it again!
	♥ 1:17pm Mark Hurst: Thanks! If I play this one as an outtro I will give you full credit!
	1:19pm Gerry from Miami: "Names, Tags, Numbers and Labels" was a fabulous tune from the Association. Excellent singers and a great arrangement.
	♥ 1:19pm tim from washington: Man, that Association song was great. As time goes by the more I love the 60s vocal pop groups.

	1:20pm Derek in Atlantic City: Bulbous Bouffant
	♥ 1:20pm Hoboken Jack: Mama!

	1:25pm Sybil: Hi efd. These noon shows still seem like the middle of the night to me. Just wanted to say I got myy Ca v aller lp the other day and I am playing the h*** out of it.
	♥ 1:27pm dale: nice one!
	♥ 1:27pm efd: ooh, glad to hear that Sybil!
	♥ 1:27pm dale: haven't heard this in many years.
	1:27pm prudy: reminding me of Beantown...
	♥ 1:28pm tim from washington: J Geils!
	1:28pm egould310: High quality 1970’s music production on this J Geils tune. Nothing else quite sounds like this.
	1:29pm Sybil: J Geils always goes down smooth
	♥ 1:30pm Hoboken Pete: j.geils was so big growing up in CT. Were they as popular elsewhere (pre-Centerfold)?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: i thought this guy's Anus was the Center Hole?
	1:30pm DJ Guin: should have stayed in Connecticut
	1:31pm FletcherNYC: You get it @Derek
	♥ 1:31pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Peter Wolf has put out some pretty fine records post-Geils.
	1:31pm prudy: in Boston they were always big...
	♥ 1:32pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @prudy: I saw them at UMaine (Freeze Frame tour). SO much fun!
	♥ 1:34pm prof.fuzz: Oh. This the red stains track is doing it for me!
	♥ 1:35pm prof.fuzz: @EFD: The bandcamp link for red stains is going to hits cielo nublado...
	1:36pm prudy: never saw them but their music was ever present in my adolescence around Boston...
	♥ 1:36pm efd: oh whoops! Thanks, I'll fix it in a moment.
	1:36pm winston legthigh: hi efd. this is really great. reminds me of esg drums.
	♥ 1:37pm efd: @prudy Agree, J. Geils Band was inescapable in the Boston area in the '70s (not that I was trying to escape them).
	♥ 1:37pm prof.fuzz: totally selfish and lazy on my part. i'm gonna buy the red stains single...without bothering to look up their bandcamp on my own!
	1:38pm egould310: Don’t tell anyone to smile. In fact everyone just leave everybody alone. Especially me.
	♥ 1:39pm efd: @prof.fuzz But by pointing it out you've paved the way for purchases by people less industrious than yourself!
	1:39pm DJ Guin: Peter Wolff does NOT get a pass for marrying Faye Dunaway...go fact check it..i can wait
	1:41pm Andrew Hollywood: more florry!
	♥ 1:43pm Hoboken Jack: I have just liked Florry on all the socials!
	1:45pm morphe': Why is J Geils so much airplay of late???

	♥ 1:51pm efd: @vinylmonkee Yes, Mario is the best!
	♥ 1:53pm Figgsrock: Was just listening to the Toy (Box) before your show EFD.
	1:54pm Carmichael: What version is this? I have what I thought was the original Lower Third version.
	1:55pm Sybil: I miss David bowie. It all went bad then.
	♥ 1:55pm Figgsrock: @Carmichael--its from the previously unreleased Toy album recorded in 2000 that was released as part of the Brilliant Adventures box set in Nov. and as a standalone set last Friday.
	1:56pm Carmichael: Guitarist is taking some liberties here. I prefer the poppy original ...
	1:56pm Sybil: This song is amazing tho
	1:57pm prudy: efd: you're from Dover/Weston? I grew up in Needham...
	1:57pm Sybil: The Funky Western Civilization
	♥ 1:58pm The Oscar: Been busy working, but TONIO K!! One of my favorite albums ever!
	1:58pm Sybil: EFD You are the best of the best
	♥ 1:58pm efd: @Figgsrock thank you for that concise explanation, I've been having a hard time untangling what that release is exactly!
	1:59pm Sybil: Jeanne D’arc veult dire une chose…
	1:59pm jim from wood ridge NJ: Wow what a song!!

	2:06pm Miss Georgia Peach: Mites
	2:07pm Cosmo in Seattle: Silverfish eat paper.
	♥ 2:07pm prof.fuzz: I don't think this Mad Rollers album is on bandcamp. They had a 7" on Sister Raygun Records in 2020, but I'm not finding that on bandcamp right now either. Hmmmm...
	2:07pm Sybil: * ton, pas son.
	2:08pm Sybil: I have a whole hour’s Playlist opening off Tonio K
	2:08pm ChukAmok: Hey, Kids on a Crime Spree are my good pals Mario, Becky, and Bill! Nice!
	♥ 2:08pm tim from washington: Hey prof.fuzz!
	2:09pm DJ Guin: Disintegration? it's a CURE LP
	♥ 2:09pm prof.fuzz: Hey Tim! Shameless pimping of another Italian band that I dig: Pre-Cog in the Bunker precoginthebunker.bandcamp.com...
	2:09pm Sybil: Tonio K will rock you, efd.
	♥ 2:11pm Figgsrock: @EFD--With that Bowie you basically just did what radio stations have been doing with my day job stuff for 26 years!
	♥ 2:11pm Handy Haversack: Thanks for the reminder, prof.fuzz! Hollywood Horses! Dynamite!
	2:11pm Sybil: Anyone who can fake a quote from Joan of Arc deserves a second hearing. this
	♥ 2:12pm efd: @Figgsrock Nice, thank you for sharing with lowly WFMU! :)
	♥ 2:12pm prof.fuzz: Hey Handy!
	2:13pm DJ Guin: for a second there...thought this was Susanna Hoffs trying to keep her career going...nope. philadelphiaweekly.com...
	♥ 2:13pm efd: @prudy I grew up in the MetroWest area, as they started calling it after I left for college. Lived in Weston when I was little, then moved to a neighboring town.
	2:13pm Robm: After lurking on the comment board and reading them, I can’t believe how much knowledge i am reading, learn something new everyday
	♥ 2:15pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Robm: Welcome to MusicNerdCentral(tm)!
	2:16pm Robm: @Woods not only are the djs music geeks, so ate some of the chatter’s
	2:23pm DJ Guin: producers who put out this drivel should be sued for fraud and theft. Jon's Mom thinks he's "talented"
	♥ 2:23pm Handy Haversack: You'd mentioned Precog in the Bunker before, prof.fuzz, and I'd forgotten to wishlist it. Rectified! I also can't shake the idea that their name comes from a specific (terrible) Piers Anthony novel. I wasted my youth.
	♥ 2:23pm tim from washington: Who's this with the Vince Furnier/Alice Cooper growl?
	♥ 2:24pm prof.fuzz: @Handy: Philip K. Dick's story “The Minority Report"
	♥ 2:24pm efd: @DJ Guin no one's forcing you to listen.
	♥ 2:26pm Handy Haversack: prof.fuzz: WHEW!
	2:28pm DJ Guin: @efd - i will make note of that shade
	2:29pm DJ Guin: bye kids
	♥ 2:32pm Hoboken Jack: Symon spelled the cool Sixties way with a Y.
	2:34pm Qibote: :-) Today 'stumbled' upon 50 grs of old, but smelling great, outdoor weed. Just made butter from it. Soon it will be Cookies!
	2:35pm HyperDose: Later, Guin Don't forget the chocolate chips, Qibote!
	2:36pm Qibote: Don't get me wrong - it's anti Covid medicine! Nope - chocolate chunks will definitely go in
	2:36pm morphe': Handy : "(terrible) Piers Anthony" = poorly written or disturbing??? Never read .. did read most PK Dick ... There are 6-8 that are not SciFi that are oddly interesting ... slow moving psycho dramas...
	2:38pm Andrew Hollywood: I do recommend the Philadelphia Weekly interview that Brak posted.
	♥ 2:38pm Handy Haversack: I am pretty sure that another track from Allhallowtide was the first 2022 release played on WFMU in 2022. Stork Club on 1/2. Sounds great. morph: With Piers Anthony, it ends up being always both.
	2:39pm HyperDose: I knew I liked this Luxembourg Signal track from the intro alone. Gorgeous.
	♥ 2:39pm Handy Haversack: Andrew Hollywood: opened in a new tab so it will be ready for me when I can finally stop working and pour a damn drink!
	2:40pm morphe': PK Dick " Between 1952-1960 Dick wrote nine literary novels hoping to be accepted as a mainstream writer, a during the 1950s he struggled to pay bills by selling science fiction short stories to the dying pulp magazine market. Between 1955-1960 he published eight science fiction novels, and all but one went to Ace Books, a low rent paperback publisher. His one hardback success during that time, Time Out of Joint, was published in 1959 by Lippincott, and it is a science fiction story that leans towards the literary. I imagined that made him very happy." https://www.sfsignal.com/archives/2015/12/the-literary-novels-of-philip-k-dick/
	2:40pm winston legthigh: the jon symon 7" is going for $17.49 on ebay.
	♥ 2:43pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is Mark E. Smith's cranky nephew
	♥ 2:43pm tim from washington: I love the PK Dick non-SF novels. Total bummer vibes. He captures anger, paranoia and desperation so well.
	2:45pm morphe': Not unlike PK Dick: John Sayles made crap films to finance his heartfelt projects: Pirahanna (original) AlliGator https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_(1978_film) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alligator_(film)
	2:46pm Andrew Hollywood: Handy, I always recommend pouring a drink.
	2:48pm morphe': Tim WA - the news reports/articles and details of Dick's paranoia are striking...
	2:48pm winston legthigh: good advice andrew hollywood. handy!
	2:49pm Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, Evan!
	♥ 2:49pm Handy Haversack: winston! Wooo, this set is on fire, efd!

	2:50pm winston legthigh: is this roger daltrey?
	2:50pm ChukAmok: @Andrew Hollywood Are you of any relation to Luke Hollywood, formerly of the New Bad Things?
	♥ 2:50pm Hoboken Jack: Don't know Laurice but this is a great voice!
	2:52pm morphe': HBO J - Laurice arrived I guess in the FMU in box and came and did a live Record Fair ... I thought he was UK but I think he is Canada...
	2:52pm Andrew Hollywood: @ChukAmok Sadly, Luke Hollywood and I are so estranged that we are not even related or have ever met in the first place.
	2:53pm morphe': HOBO JACK - that was spellCrap - no disrespect !!!

	♥ 2:55pm Stephen O: Thank you, EFD! Viva Laurice!
	♥ 2:56pm Hoboken Jack: Interesting to see the players on the Donovan's Brain albums, as I felt a bit of Stamey. Thanks EFD for all the great new stuff this week!!
