	8:03pm ironybread: FOR THE SAKE OF LIFE ON EARTH not through FAULT!
	8:03pm Kat in Chicago: Sorry you're missing The Mirror, Rich. I went to NYC a few years ago specifically so I could see Vicki at Monty Hall with Matmos, it was oh so worth the trip
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Hi Sonderangebot! Hi McFluffy! Hi Aitch! Hi ultradamno! Hi Krys O! Hi Mr. Fab! Hi Pauly! Hi Kat! Hi Otis St.! Hi Scott67! Hi Gary! Hi miles! Hi ironybread! Hi Rich In Washington!
	8:04pm ironybread: #РАЛИЖИЗНИНАЗЕМЛЕнепВОИНЕ!
	8:04pm WR: Hi Rich in Washington
	8:04pm ironybread: hi you all
	8:04pm ultradamno: Speaking of which, PLU once again offering 85% off the entire digital discography (when purchased by bulk option) for Bandcamp Friday peoplelikeus-vickibennett.bandcamp.com...
	8:05pm miles of middle texas: Hi everyone. Strong start.
	8:05pm Krys O.: Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi.
	8:05pm Kat in Chicago: And I've got a ticket to see The Negativlands at Le Poisson Rouge in May, hope I can actually get the time off work and planes are still flying from here to there etc
	8:06pm Rich in Washington: Hi WR! Hi miles!
	8:06pm Rich in Washington: I needed to come home rather abruptly. Nothing bad, just had to, so missing Negativland and The Mirror tonight in Walla X2
	8:06pm Kat in Chicago: I got that 85% off deal last time she offered it, it's a bundle of goodness for sure
	8:07pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for that link, ultradamno!
	8:07pm ultradamno: Also, if you're looking for something else for BCF, WFMU DJs Creamo and Marcel have put out this collab cyanidetooth.bandcamp.com...
	8:08pm Krys O.: I wholeheartedly endorse getting PLU's entire catalog. It's given me eternal life and made me two inches taller.
	8:09pm Krys O.: The last time I was at the station i JC was for Marathon 2020 and I attended Vicki's screening. It was so beautiful that I wept. Seriously. Tears welled up.
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I've gone and bought many of them from her BC page even though they've been free on Ubuweb etc for years because it's always nice to support the artist.
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: I totally agree, Krys O. Her stuff is really heavy. Funny and whimsical and thoughtful at the same time.
	8:11pm Krys O.: She's on Patreon too.
	8:11pm Krys O.: My ex and I were on Kenny G's show with Vicki. Trying to remember the year....
	8:12pm Rich in Washington: Funny you should mention...
	8:12pm Rich in Washington: I'm a PLU patron. It's cheaper than psychotherapy.
	8:14pm Mr Fab: It was cool when I found the DVD that PLU made with Ergo Phizmiz at Amoeba. I could actually go up and buy it. That happened once with Otis - I found the Raymond Scott album that The Bran Flakes worked on.
	8:18pm ironybread: The. Hits. Keep. Comin'. #HeadAndLeg
	8:18pm Mokka Matti: A hearty yodel to the dusty diggers spelunking into darkened depositories of audio oddities, from near the southern shores of the Salish Sea.
	8:19pm Rich in Washington: Hiya, Mokka!
	8:20pm Krys O.: I have a Nothing Special sticker on my 45 box.
	8:20pm Rich in Washington: Whenever I hear this loop, I think Station Manager Ken is going to back announce.
	8:20pm ironybread: #KenLoops
	8:22pm Krys O.: Saw a documentary on Nihilist Spasm Band at a WFMU Record Fair.
	8:22pm Rich in Washington: They're wonderful! Yeah, recently stumbled upon that doc but need to see it again.
	8:23pm Rich in Washington: and the Hollerin' record in the background. Hollerin' was a permanent fixture of my radio crate for many many years.
	8:24pm Krys O.: We used it in the Froeberg studio days of the 80s
	8:24pm Rich in Washington: It's timeless.
	8:26pm Aitch: it's making me anxious
	8:26pm Krys O.: It occurred to me the other day that my first Marathon was 40 years ago.
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow!
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Aitch! Hello! You're OK. You're safe. You're among friends.
	8:28pm Kat in Chicago: that's amazing, Krys!
	8:29pm Krys O.: I was a college student living in the dorm above the station. Went to classes after pulling all nighters at the station answering phones. The station manager, Bruce Longstreet put me on as an MC for some of the deejays. I was 18.
	8:29pm ironybread: Hi Aitch - everything makes me anxious, I welcome you to my club.
	8:29pm Rich in Washington: I was and still am a collage student.
	8:30pm Mr Fab: Wow, Krys, you actually attended Upsala? Did any students have shows?
	8:30pm Krys O.: The goal back then was $30,000. We were worried we wouldn't make it.
	8:32pm Kat in Chicago: WFMU mostly relieves my anxiety, or distracts me from it which is almost as good
	8:33pm Cp304: good evening peoples!
	8:34pm Rich in Washington: Hey Cp304!
	8:34pm Krys O.: Hey, Mr. Fab. Upsala College stipulated that deejays attended at least one class. That rule eventually went away. I enrolled at Upsala without ANY knowledge of WFMU. They never mentioned the radio station in the tours. I actually did radio in high school at the local Greenwich, CT AM station with some other students. I met a student in the cafeteria who specifically went to Upsala in order to do a show. He introduced me to the station. I worked in the record library and was paid by the college. The rest is history.
	8:36pm Krys O.: I have to admit that even the most abrasive, most bizarre or whatever music that WFMU plays relaxes me and helps me cope.
	8:36pm Mr Fab: Wow, imagine - actually getting paid to work at WFMU.
	8:37pm ironybread: #CasioMT-68
	8:37pm Krys O.: LOL! It wasn't much. I think it allowed me to buy records or clothes at the flea market in East Orange.
	8:38pm Rich in Washington: Oh to be young again and to subsist on pennies, drugs and alcohol and photosynthesis
	8:39pm Krys O.: The other day I heard some Casio PT-30 sounds on someone's show. I still have one of those.
	8:40pm Rich in Washington: sorry Debbie... excuse me a moment...
	8:41pm Aitch: $40/week rent...
	8:42pm ironybread: Mom & Dad gave me a Casio MT-68 around 1986, which I left behind when I moved to L.A. in 1997, and apparently my niece adopted it, but I don't know where it is now
	8:42pm ironybread: Given about 20 minutes I could probably scan and post the photo of me on Xmas morning 1986 with my brand-new MT-68
	8:43pm ironybread: So delighted you got to meet VICKI and talk to WOBBLY!
	8:43pm Krys O.: Bought my PT-30 with my first paycheck from Crazy Eddie's records. Seeing Vicki in person is truly magical.
	8:44pm Krys O.: The CE stint was 1984. I think Anal Magic was later.
	8:46pm sufferwords: hi later- thanks fer doing yer thing- all ears
	8:47pm Buddy Runyan: Oh well, certain men
	8:47pm Krys O.: I seem to recall the email I received there was a mention of keeping Bandcamp Fridays. Will confirm. BRB.
	8:49pm Rich in Washington: Hi Buddy!
	8:49pm Krys O.: Here's the text: Hi Sister Krys, I’m excited to announce that Bandcamp is joining Epic Games, who you may know as the makers of Fortnite and Unreal Engine, and champions for a fair and open Internet. Bandcamp will keep operating as a standalone marketplace and music community, and I will continue to lead our team. The products and services you depend on aren’t going anywhere, we’ll continue to build Bandcamp around our artists-first revenue model (where artists net an average of 82% of every sale), you’ll still have the same control over how you offer your music, Bandcamp Fridays will continue as planned, and the Daily will keep highlighting the diverse, amazing music on the site. However, behind the scenes we’re working with Epic to expand internationally and push development forward across Bandcamp, from basics like our album pages, mobile apps, merch tools, payment system, and search and discovery features, to newer initiatives like our vinyl pressing and live streaming services. Since our founding in 2008, we’ve been motivated by the pursuit of our mission, which is to help spread the healing power of music by building a community where artists thrive through the direct support of their fans. That simple idea has worked well, with payments to artists and labels closing in on $1 billion USD. And while over the years we’ve heard from other companies who wanted us to join them, we’ve always felt that doing so would only be exciting if they strongly believed in our mission, were aligned with our values, and not only wanted to see Bandcamp continue, but also wanted to provide the resources to bring a lot more benefit to the artists, labels, and fans who use the site. Epic ticks all those boxes. We share a vision of building the most open, artist-friendly ecosystem in the world, and together we’ll be able to create even more opportunities for artists to be compensated fairly for their work. Whether you joined Bandcamp recently or have been with us since the beginning 14 years ago, thank you for being a part of this incredible community, and we look forward to serving you for many years to come! Ethan Diamond Bandcamp co-founder and CEO
	8:49pm ironybread: Hi Buddy!!!!!!
	8:49pm WR: Mark Hurst summary of Bandcamp buy out. creativegood.com... I will continue to buy on BC until the worst happens but am working on getting all my purchases downloaded.
	8:49pm Rich in Washington: I also got to meet Wobbly's mom, who was incredibly nice (no surprise there)!
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Krys!
	8:50pm ultradamno: If you get his newsletter, you know Mark Hurst has concerns on this acquisition.
	8:51pm ultradamno: ...WR beat me to it.
	8:51pm Krys O.: That sounds nice, Rich. I keep my Bandcamp purchase downloads on an external drive. I should probably make a copy of that drive, then copy that drive, and so on.
	8:51pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I'm on the Mark Hurst list and listen every week.
	8:52pm ultradamno: Adopting a wait and see attitude prioritizing what artists have to say about their experiences under the new regime.
	8:52pm ironybread: Aw, I haven't met Wobbly's mom! Lovely
	8:53pm ironybread: Folks, never NEVER count on a streaming service to stick around and provide the streams you bought...always always ALWAYS download things and save them to your hard drive where a streaming service can't reach them. The only way to own a thing you bought is to own it free and clear
	8:54pm Mr Fab: ironybread: you moved...and didn't take your Casio?!
	8:55pm ultradamno: Yep. And their are often physical media options, I have a cassette, a vinyl record and a CD coming from today's purchases...
	8:55pm Aitch: And having an actual physical thing is good too, whatever the format
	8:56pm Rich in Washington: I often go for the physical format, especially when it's actually less expensive or close to the price of the download only option. Like for example the Chrome box set or Feedtime box set, which was cheaper than the download option and you get the downloads too.
	8:57pm Mr Fab: Bandcamp's new parent co., Tencent, are based in China, a country that has banned Bandcamp. They might become Bannedcamp.
	8:57pm Kat in Chicago: I always download any music I buy, and I should definitely get more organized about backing up.
	8:58pm Rich in Washington: I've also gone back and downloaded my previous purchases but as FLACs, while I am gradually converting over to that format.
	8:58pm ultradamno: Of course, these days, when buying from overseas....the shipping gets unacceptable (for instance I had to go full digital on the Zombierella single since the post on the vinyl was so much more than the record)
	8:58pm Kat in Chicago: any digital music I buy, I should say. I still buy physical too but after moving too many times, I am getting very selective about what Things I acquire.
	8:58pm ironybread: Fab: I had limited room in the back of my Mercury Marquis. The MT-68 didn't make the cut
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: So hopefully the new owners keep allowing that. I've lost files for stuff I've bought there and just go back and download it again because I've already purchased it.
	8:59pm Cp304: i needed this song around 3pm, i raged a bit today.. I think pooty may have the rage ray pointed at us
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: I have a Casio SK-10 that suddenly quit working and I can't seem to get rid of it.
	9:00pm ironybread: Firesign put out a new reissue today, a Bandcamp exclusive, and I'm happy to continue to put out future reissues on Bandcamp until such time as they become demonstrably, aggressively evil
	9:01pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rich and all!!!
	9:01pm Cp304: we had the sk-7 i think.. had a mic in the top right corner for sampling you could play back to tango beat and throw in fills
	9:01pm Mr Fab: Cp304: I recommend the official Sheena's tin foil hat. Stops Pootin's rays in their tracks!
	9:01pm ironybread: #Pooty
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: What? Really?
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: Hi Will The Sound Guy! How are we sounding?
	9:01pm Cp304: right O Fab!
	9:01pm Mokka Matti: I guess I didn't have a clue what was going on with Bandcamp. I haven't ever made very many purchases through it. Sounds like something else to avoid now.
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: Putin dances the poot. We must repeat.
	9:02pm ironybread: Mokka - you don't need to avoid them as such, just wade in and see what they have to offer, keeping in mind that they've decided to move in a very different direction and you may need to pivot away from them in future. For now, just enjoy what they have to offer
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: I think it's OK for a while, Mokka. It's probably the fairest platform for artists to date, which is why we're all in a lather about it being bought out.
	9:03pm Krys O.: I am feeling run down probably a side effect from the shingles vaccine I had earlier. Signing off. Thanks, everybody!
	9:03pm Kat in Chicago: Yeah it's very important to a lot of my friends, and the main source for what I play on my show
	9:04pm Kat in Chicago: I need to get that vaccine. Good night, Krys!
	9:04pm ironybread: "Not Always So", folks, that's the only rule.
	9:04pm ironybread: cheers Krys, be sure to listen to my show tomorrow which will be AWESOME
	9:05pm Kat in Chicago: I suggest you post your Casio Christmas pic on the playlist tomorrow ironybread
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: Ditto what Kat said.
	9:06pm ultradamno: It certainly made a lot of foreign stuff accessible than it otherwise would have been...I have to assume getting to the Syf catalog, for instance, would have been a chore without it.
	9:06pm Kat in Chicago: I might not be able to listen in real time this week, alas
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: Hope you feel better, Krys O!
	9:07pm ultradamno: *more accessible
	9:09pm Mr Fab: That time Maceo Parker jammed with Putin. And Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn were in the audience. musicformaniacs.blogspot.com... (Please don't actually play/listen to it.)
	9:10pm ironybread: HA FOUND IT! It was Xmas 1984. Scans of the Polaroids coming up!
	9:11pm ultradamno: Speaking of Syf and that I got an email saying their benefit comp is sold out with the note: 1. SUPPORT THE UKRAINIANS HOWEVER YOU CAN 2. FUCK PUTIN AND ALL THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MADNESS
	9:12pm Cp304: hahahaaha Fab.. that finger point when he grabs the mic.. oh.. my fav blog of all time
	9:12pm Kat in Chicago: I'm making my BC Friday buy after this show and I think it will be heavy on the Ukraine benefit releases
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: oh god. I forgot about that, Fab!
	9:13pm Mr Fab: I wish I had!
	9:13pm Cp304: how bout the kids standing in the midst of that dna strain.. interesting
	9:13pm ultradamno: Also, No Rent Records digital discography is half off for the day norentrecords.bandcamp.com
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: Vodka helps
	9:14pm Cp304: i gotta put din on.. turning up to 11
	9:14pm ultradamno: That's "$17.50, for 190 + releases" including a nice Boy Dirt Car I already have
	9:16pm Mr Fab: This "Hush" is a tad different form the Deep Purple version. Daniel Menche def putting a unique spin on it.
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: I'll try to keep it suitably dinnery, Cp304
	9:17pm Kat in Chicago: Paulstretch?
	9:17pm Rich in Washington: Indeed! It's also somewhat melodic.
	9:18pm Rich in Washington: I don't think so. Menche's stuff is usually fairly minimally processed.
	9:18pm ultradamno: That benefit comp "WSPÓLNA SPRAWA" can still be purchase physically and digitally here plusztapes.bandcamp.com... and digitally only now here syfrecords.bandcamp.com...
	9:19pm Kat in Chicago: I was kidding! It has been very nice to listen to, seriously
	9:19pm ultradamno: I thought it was a misspelled ZZ Top cover
	9:21pm Kat in Chicago: Lawd take me downtown, I'm just looking for some ambient
	9:21pm Rich in Washington: sorry! I'm so tired I'm taking everything literally! My mind is going. I can feel it.
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: I just went looking for my sole Deep Purple LP (the best of) and it doesn't have Hush on it. What kind of bullshit is that?
	9:24pm Mr Fab: What?! Maybe they're gettin all hipster on us: "Sure, it was a big hit, but it wasn't their BEST..."
	9:24pm ironybread: #FuckYouVeryMuch #LanguageBarrier
	9:25pm Kat in Chicago: I don't think I could handle that Hush right now
	9:31pm ultradamno: I bought a vinyl copy of Messer für Frau Müller's Danger: Retrobolik a few Bandcamp Fridays ago through a Russian seller and Pay Pal put it on a temporary hold for security concerns. It went through in the end so I guess it wasn't for spy purposes. Fashion tips from Maria Butina twitter.com...
	9:32pm ironybread: Let's hear it for 1970, folks
	9:33pm Zipperhead7: Hi folks! Just jumped in midstream but better late than never. Always loved this Fahey track
	9:33pm Kat in Chicago: applauds
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: Hi Zipperhead7!
	9:34pm Kat in Chicago: "Dance of Death & Other Plantation Favorites." Now that's a title.
	9:36pm Zipperhead7: First heard "Dance of Death" on the Zabriskie Point soundtrack, speaking of 1970
	9:39pm Rich in Washington: I had this track on a cassette I taped off the radio as a teenager and it took me decades to figure out who had done it.
	9:43pm ultradamno: That's "occasional Red Crayola collaborator" John Fahey to me. theredkrayola.bandcamp.com...
	9:43pm ironybread: looking forward to digging into this new Sonic Youth joint
	9:44pm Zipperhead7: I've never been able to detect a trace of Fahey on that record
	9:44pm Rich in Washington: It's pretty reet on. Diggin' it.
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: I don't know if they're still online anywhere and don't have the mental bandwidth to look now but I recommend tracking down the Fahey mixtape. Someone put them on Soundcloud or some similar place, but apparently it was rips of a mixtape Fahey made for someone who worked at a Portland record store and they're pretty goddamn cray cray. A lot of his own music on it but also really bizarre.
	9:48pm Aitch: Saw some old SY from a morning kids music show 1998 for after the show of course. www.youtube.com...
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: it's pretty ludicrous getting sad about bands 'breaking up' these days ('breaking up' is just a stage of a band's monetization process - they'll get together again for a wheelbarrow of cash to play for the rich kids of the festival circuit) but SY breaking up means we'll likely never hear anything as 'experimental' sounding from these individuals again. Sad.
	9:52pm Aitch: SY were a must see whenever they came over. Real shame to never experience that again, transcendental
	9:54pm ultradamno: They needed to get out of the way of the Polish invasion anyway.
	9:59pm Mr Fab: Glad I got to see em, at a small club, right up front. And hung a bit with Thurstin and Kim at the old Rhino Records store circa 1984 or 85. I had bought “Bad Moon Rising” and really liked it but I don’t think they were too well known at that point. Nice folks.Kim told me that she didn’t like “Bad Moon Rising”’s dark, atmospheric production- exactly what i DID like about it! I noticed that their sound was usually brighter / more clear after that.
	10:00pm Rich in Washington: Love Bad Moon. Probably my all time favorite SY record.
	10:02pm ultradamno: @Rich Agreed!
	10:05pm ultradamno: The first time I saw them was at Hoosier Ballroom in 86. There's footage of it on You Tube. I saw them three or four times after that, it was always a dance party. I always thought people reacted to them as being much farther out than they were at that point. I mean they were never presented as crazy as Sun City Girls or anything.
	10:09pm ultradamno: There was that line in Juno about listening to Sonic Youth and it was just noise, I was hearing that from punks back then.
	10:09pm Mr Fab: They were a party when I saw em. On the other hand, they did a half-hour live show on PBS (believe it or not) mid-90s and it was pure improv mayhem. ”This isn’t even music, this is noise”- Mrs Fab
	10:13pm Rich in Washington: I think I saw them on the Sisters tour. Probably 87?
	10:14pm ultradamno: I remember Moore and Beck doing a live noise set on MTV (120 Minutes, I guess) which wasn't very mind blowing but pretty funny. I wonder if Micah could play it on his show as Scientology music.
	10:16pm ironybread: Here it is, folks, the Casio MT-68 I got for Christmas in 1984, which James Murphy later stole so that LCD Soundsystem could record "This Is Happening" pbs.twimg.com...
	10:18pm Cp304: Nuice ironybread.. i think my oldest sis still has our 7.. gonna dig..
	10:18pm Zipperhead7: Did that Casio have the presets that would play little tunes when you pressed a button?
	10:19pm ultradamno: The second time I saw them, Goo had just come out and Kool Thing was getting MTV airplay and suddenly a place like Bogarts was packed for them. Bewitched and STP (NOT Stone Temple Pilots) opened and I remember that latter band seeming visibly unprepared for the escalation. Bewitched were great, kind of lost band of that scene.
	10:19pm ironybread: wait wait, is somebody in Sonic Youth a Xenu-worshipper?
	10:19pm ultradamno: Nah, Beck is.
	10:20pm ironybread: ah, right, that I knew - thanks ultra
	10:20pm ultradamno: ...or was, I think he says he never was now.
	10:21pm ironybread: As long as Beck isn't an insane douchebag, I'll be content, regardless of his "religious" persuasions
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: OMG, ironybread! That picture! Pure xmas ecstasy!
	10:23pm Zipperhead7: I just looked up "Xenu," and that is some of the goofiest gruel since Kathryn Kuhlman
	10:23pm ironybread: Zip - the MT-68 did not really have any "demo" mode tunes it could play. Basically if you wanted to use it to play "California Girls" you had to learn the chord changes yourself
	10:24pm Kat in Chicago: yessss ironybread, love that pic
	10:24pm Cp304: there is a SA-39 downstairs that sis's friend left here.. still functions
	10:27pm ironybread: DO IT RICH
	10:28pm Cp304: alotta slides and knobs on that one irony!
	10:32pm Zipperhead7: Be careful with the prog, Rich. I heard a DJ say that if any prog tracks longer than eight minutes are played on WFMU, the signal automatically switches to an iPod loaded with surf guitar instrumentals
	10:34pm ultradamno: That is a sound policy choice!
	10:34pm ultradamno: Certainly a policy choice related to sound, for sure.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: well, that's clearly bullshit...
	10:35pm Rich in Washington: <cues up side one of ELP's Tarkus>
	10:36pm ironybread: Oh dear, the Sheena's stream has gone away and now I seem to be listening to someone singing about black denim trousers and motorcycle boots i.discogs.com...
	10:36pm Aitch: The cover art? Something being birthed?
	10:36pm Zipperhead7: Ha ha ha . . . maybe he just meant the FM signal
	10:37pm Kat in Chicago: That might just be for the mothership. Georgy gave us "Supper's Ready" and "Heart of the Sunrise" not too long ago.
	10:38pm ironybread: Now it's playing "Kooky Deuce" i.discogs.com...
	10:38pm Rich in Washington: huh?
	10:39pm ironybread: (Rich, don't worry, everything I'm saying at the moment is a complete lie.)
	10:39pm Kat in Chicago: Rich, you are very tired and irony is pulling your leg.
	10:41pm Rich in Washington: It's OK. I can hear the show delayed by 15 seconds echoing from my living room.
	10:41pm Kat in Chicago: What the rat fuck is this?
	10:42pm Rich in Washington: heh. Been meaning to play this for some time.
	10:42pm Aitch: I'm told you need to tape them up or they split
	10:43pm ironybread: This gentleman has a very intruiguing rock-n-roll story www.discogs.com...
	10:43pm ultradamno: "COD" really dates this. The world just simultaneously agreed to stop doing that at some point
	10:44pm Cp304: "almost 32".. oh.. if only
	10:45pm Mr Fab: Ha, don’t know if ‘70s prog would trigger the Sheena stream. It would probably take U2 or Journey for it to kick in with the emergency surf novelties.
	10:47pm ironybread: His debut record was a triple-LP...in QUAD www.discogs.com...
	10:48pm Zipperhead7: OK, if he went to Elmira in 1962 and was paroled after a year and a half, how could he form the band on Jan. 31, 1963 in Rochester? Did he find a wormhole?
	10:48pm Kat in Chicago: Math is hard
	10:50pm ironybread: Fab, I like the thought experiment "What songs would cause the stream robot to take over someone's show?" I think a show should be filled with people's best guesses. I'll start us off: El DeBarge "Who's Johnny" Starship "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now"
	10:51pm Cp304: must be common core Kat
	10:51pm Aitch: Thanks for the Armand Rich and the link Taylor. Wow
	10:51pm Rich in Washington: How about anything by Starship or Jefferson Starship in general?
	10:52pm Aitch: That shit kills me Rich, please no
	10:52pm Cp304: C'mon now Aitch.. dance!
	10:53pm ironybread: One and only one Starship song is permitted: "Find Your Way Back". I can't explain
	10:53pm Aitch: i meant Jefferson anything, cheesy synth ok
	10:53pm ultradamno: I have to assume all those burglaries included lengthy and involved satirical soliloquies
	10:55pm Hams: did not know you could whistle in outer space.
	10:55pm Zipperhead7: I tried to play a Jefferson Starship album once but the tonearm went limp.
	10:55pm Cp304: great listening Rich.. hanging junglers..
	10:56pm Rich in Washington: Hi Hams!
	10:56pm ultradamno: You absolutely can, but no one can hear you
	10:56pm Scott67: Thanks Rich! ✌😎🌻🌏
	10:56pm Cp304: those can hams..
	10:57pm Kat in Chicago: Oh no, it's almost time for Bud/Bob
	10:57pm Aitch: steamed hams?
	10:58pm Hams: rich, hello! and all..
	10:58pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody!
	10:59pm ironybread: Oh, my, god. I worked with Nick Bougas for a year at a bookstore in Burbank
	10:59pm Rich in Washington: I'm auditioning this track for my new closing theme. Lovely, eh!
	10:59pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow, ironybread!

	11:02pm Aitch: Ween's Pony song? I think it's his lung
	11:04pm WR: Thank you Rich in Washington and all y'all.
	11:04pm Mr Fab: Much thx, Rich! Loved it. Get some sleep folks, so we can get up in time for Jan’s swinging ‘78s and Ironybread’s wonderland of wonder tomorrow.
	11:05pm ironybread: PLEASE GIVE
	11:06pm Aitch: Ta Rich
	11:06pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody! Me go sleepy time now!

View Rich in Washington's profile

A three-hour exploration of excavations from the farthest reaches of humanity's hellish collective brain, through records, tapes, CDs, mostly scoured from country bumpkin thrift stores, creepy charity shops, backwoods junk stores, and even the internet - all mixed live. We don't judge, we just play 'em. Hosted by Rich in Washington.

	8:03pm ironybread: FOR THE SAKE OF LIFE ON EARTH not through FAULT!
	8:03pm Kat in Chicago: Sorry you're missing The Mirror, Rich. I went to NYC a few years ago specifically so I could see Vicki at Monty Hall with Matmos, it was oh so worth the trip
	8:03pm Rich in Washington: Hi Sonderangebot! Hi McFluffy! Hi Aitch! Hi ultradamno! Hi Krys O! Hi Mr. Fab! Hi Pauly! Hi Kat! Hi Otis St.! Hi Scott67! Hi Gary! Hi miles! Hi ironybread! Hi Rich In Washington!

	8:04pm WR: Hi Rich in Washington
	8:04pm ironybread: hi you all
	8:04pm ultradamno: Speaking of which, PLU once again offering 85% off the entire digital discography (when purchased by bulk option) for Bandcamp Friday peoplelikeus-vickibennett.bandcamp.com...
	8:05pm miles of middle texas: Hi everyone. Strong start.
	8:05pm Krys O.: Hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi, hi.
	8:05pm Kat in Chicago: And I've got a ticket to see The Negativlands at Le Poisson Rouge in May, hope I can actually get the time off work and planes are still flying from here to there etc
	8:06pm Rich in Washington: Hi WR! Hi miles!
	8:06pm Rich in Washington: I needed to come home rather abruptly. Nothing bad, just had to, so missing Negativland and The Mirror tonight in Walla X2
	8:06pm Kat in Chicago: I got that 85% off deal last time she offered it, it's a bundle of goodness for sure
	8:07pm Rich in Washington: Thanks for that link, ultradamno!
	8:07pm ultradamno: Also, if you're looking for something else for BCF, WFMU DJs Creamo and Marcel have put out this collab cyanidetooth.bandcamp.com...
	8:08pm Krys O.: I wholeheartedly endorse getting PLU's entire catalog. It's given me eternal life and made me two inches taller.
	8:09pm Krys O.: The last time I was at the station i JC was for Marathon 2020 and I attended Vicki's screening. It was so beautiful that I wept. Seriously. Tears welled up.
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I've gone and bought many of them from her BC page even though they've been free on Ubuweb etc for years because it's always nice to support the artist.
	8:10pm Rich in Washington: I totally agree, Krys O. Her stuff is really heavy. Funny and whimsical and thoughtful at the same time.
	8:11pm Krys O.: She's on Patreon too.
	8:11pm Krys O.: My ex and I were on Kenny G's show with Vicki. Trying to remember the year....
	8:12pm Rich in Washington: Funny you should mention...
	8:12pm Rich in Washington: I'm a PLU patron. It's cheaper than psychotherapy.
	8:14pm Mr Fab: It was cool when I found the DVD that PLU made with Ergo Phizmiz at Amoeba. I could actually go up and buy it. That happened once with Otis - I found the Raymond Scott album that The Bran Flakes worked on.
	8:18pm ironybread: The. Hits. Keep. Comin'. #HeadAndLeg
	8:18pm Mokka Matti: A hearty yodel to the dusty diggers spelunking into darkened depositories of audio oddities, from near the southern shores of the Salish Sea.
	8:19pm Rich in Washington: Hiya, Mokka!
	8:20pm Krys O.: I have a Nothing Special sticker on my 45 box.
	8:20pm Rich in Washington: Whenever I hear this loop, I think Station Manager Ken is going to back announce.
	8:20pm ironybread: #KenLoops
	8:22pm Krys O.: Saw a documentary on Nihilist Spasm Band at a WFMU Record Fair.
	8:22pm Rich in Washington: They're wonderful! Yeah, recently stumbled upon that doc but need to see it again.
	8:23pm Rich in Washington: and the Hollerin' record in the background. Hollerin' was a permanent fixture of my radio crate for many many years.
	8:24pm Krys O.: We used it in the Froeberg studio days of the 80s
	8:24pm Rich in Washington: It's timeless.
	8:26pm Aitch: it's making me anxious
	8:26pm Krys O.: It occurred to me the other day that my first Marathon was 40 years ago.
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow!
	8:27pm Rich in Washington: Aitch! Hello! You're OK. You're safe. You're among friends.
	8:28pm Kat in Chicago: that's amazing, Krys!
	8:29pm Krys O.: I was a college student living in the dorm above the station. Went to classes after pulling all nighters at the station answering phones. The station manager, Bruce Longstreet put me on as an MC for some of the deejays. I was 18.
	8:29pm ironybread: Hi Aitch - everything makes me anxious, I welcome you to my club.
	8:29pm Rich in Washington: I was and still am a collage student.
	8:30pm Mr Fab: Wow, Krys, you actually attended Upsala? Did any students have shows?
	8:30pm Krys O.: The goal back then was $30,000. We were worried we wouldn't make it.
	8:32pm Kat in Chicago: WFMU mostly relieves my anxiety, or distracts me from it which is almost as good
	8:33pm Cp304: good evening peoples!
	8:34pm Rich in Washington: Hey Cp304!
	8:34pm Krys O.: Hey, Mr. Fab. Upsala College stipulated that deejays attended at least one class. That rule eventually went away. I enrolled at Upsala without ANY knowledge of WFMU. They never mentioned the radio station in the tours. I actually did radio in high school at the local Greenwich, CT AM station with some other students. I met a student in the cafeteria who specifically went to Upsala in order to do a show. He introduced me to the station. I worked in the record library and was paid by the college. The rest is history.
	8:36pm Krys O.: I have to admit that even the most abrasive, most bizarre or whatever music that WFMU plays relaxes me and helps me cope.
	8:36pm Mr Fab: Wow, imagine - actually getting paid to work at WFMU.
	8:37pm ironybread: #CasioMT-68
	8:37pm Krys O.: LOL! It wasn't much. I think it allowed me to buy records or clothes at the flea market in East Orange.
	8:38pm Rich in Washington: Oh to be young again and to subsist on pennies, drugs and alcohol and photosynthesis
	8:39pm Krys O.: The other day I heard some Casio PT-30 sounds on someone's show. I still have one of those.
	8:40pm Rich in Washington: sorry Debbie... excuse me a moment...
	8:41pm Aitch: $40/week rent...
	8:42pm ironybread: Mom & Dad gave me a Casio MT-68 around 1986, which I left behind when I moved to L.A. in 1997, and apparently my niece adopted it, but I don't know where it is now
	8:42pm ironybread: Given about 20 minutes I could probably scan and post the photo of me on Xmas morning 1986 with my brand-new MT-68
	8:43pm ironybread: So delighted you got to meet VICKI and talk to WOBBLY!
	8:43pm Krys O.: Bought my PT-30 with my first paycheck from Crazy Eddie's records. Seeing Vicki in person is truly magical.
	8:44pm Krys O.: The CE stint was 1984. I think Anal Magic was later.
	8:46pm sufferwords: hi later- thanks fer doing yer thing- all ears
	8:47pm Buddy Runyan: Oh well, certain men
	8:47pm Krys O.: I seem to recall the email I received there was a mention of keeping Bandcamp Fridays. Will confirm. BRB.
	8:49pm Rich in Washington: Hi Buddy!
	8:49pm Krys O.: Here's the text: Hi Sister Krys, I’m excited to announce that Bandcamp is joining Epic Games, who you may know as the makers of Fortnite and Unreal Engine, and champions for a fair and open Internet. Bandcamp will keep operating as a standalone marketplace and music community, and I will continue to lead our team. The products and services you depend on aren’t going anywhere, we’ll continue to build Bandcamp around our artists-first revenue model (where artists net an average of 82% of every sale), you’ll still have the same control over how you offer your music, Bandcamp Fridays will continue as planned, and the Daily will keep highlighting the diverse, amazing music on the site. However, behind the scenes we’re working with Epic to expand internationally and push development forward across Bandcamp, from basics like our album pages, mobile apps, merch tools, payment system, and search and discovery features, to newer initiatives like our vinyl pressing and live streaming services. Since our founding in 2008, we’ve been motivated by the pursuit of our mission, which is to help spread the healing power of music by building a community where artists thrive through the direct support of their fans. That simple idea has worked well, with payments to artists and labels closing in on $1 billion USD. And while over the years we’ve heard from other companies who wanted us to join them, we’ve always felt that doing so would only be exciting if they strongly believed in our mission, were aligned with our values, and not only wanted to see Bandcamp continue, but also wanted to provide the resources to bring a lot more benefit to the artists, labels, and fans who use the site. Epic ticks all those boxes. We share a vision of building the most open, artist-friendly ecosystem in the world, and together we’ll be able to create even more opportunities for artists to be compensated fairly for their work. Whether you joined Bandcamp recently or have been with us since the beginning 14 years ago, thank you for being a part of this incredible community, and we look forward to serving you for many years to come! Ethan Diamond Bandcamp co-founder and CEO
	8:49pm ironybread: Hi Buddy!!!!!!
	8:49pm WR: Mark Hurst summary of Bandcamp buy out. creativegood.com... I will continue to buy on BC until the worst happens but am working on getting all my purchases downloaded.
	8:49pm Rich in Washington: I also got to meet Wobbly's mom, who was incredibly nice (no surprise there)!
	8:50pm Rich in Washington: Thanks, Krys!
	8:50pm ultradamno: If you get his newsletter, you know Mark Hurst has concerns on this acquisition.
	8:51pm ultradamno: ...WR beat me to it.
	8:51pm Krys O.: That sounds nice, Rich. I keep my Bandcamp purchase downloads on an external drive. I should probably make a copy of that drive, then copy that drive, and so on.
	8:51pm Rich in Washington: Yeah, I'm on the Mark Hurst list and listen every week.
	8:52pm ultradamno: Adopting a wait and see attitude prioritizing what artists have to say about their experiences under the new regime.
	8:52pm ironybread: Aw, I haven't met Wobbly's mom! Lovely
	8:53pm ironybread: Folks, never NEVER count on a streaming service to stick around and provide the streams you bought...always always ALWAYS download things and save them to your hard drive where a streaming service can't reach them. The only way to own a thing you bought is to own it free and clear
	8:54pm Mr Fab: ironybread: you moved...and didn't take your Casio?!
	8:55pm ultradamno: Yep. And their are often physical media options, I have a cassette, a vinyl record and a CD coming from today's purchases...
	8:55pm Aitch: And having an actual physical thing is good too, whatever the format
	8:56pm Rich in Washington: I often go for the physical format, especially when it's actually less expensive or close to the price of the download only option. Like for example the Chrome box set or Feedtime box set, which was cheaper than the download option and you get the downloads too.
	8:57pm Mr Fab: Bandcamp's new parent co., Tencent, are based in China, a country that has banned Bandcamp. They might become Bannedcamp.
	8:57pm Kat in Chicago: I always download any music I buy, and I should definitely get more organized about backing up.
	8:58pm Rich in Washington: I've also gone back and downloaded my previous purchases but as FLACs, while I am gradually converting over to that format.
	8:58pm ultradamno: Of course, these days, when buying from overseas....the shipping gets unacceptable (for instance I had to go full digital on the Zombierella single since the post on the vinyl was so much more than the record)
	8:58pm Kat in Chicago: any digital music I buy, I should say. I still buy physical too but after moving too many times, I am getting very selective about what Things I acquire.
	8:58pm ironybread: Fab: I had limited room in the back of my Mercury Marquis. The MT-68 didn't make the cut
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: So hopefully the new owners keep allowing that. I've lost files for stuff I've bought there and just go back and download it again because I've already purchased it.
	8:59pm Cp304: i needed this song around 3pm, i raged a bit today.. I think pooty may have the rage ray pointed at us
	8:59pm Rich in Washington: I have a Casio SK-10 that suddenly quit working and I can't seem to get rid of it.
	9:00pm ironybread: Firesign put out a new reissue today, a Bandcamp exclusive, and I'm happy to continue to put out future reissues on Bandcamp until such time as they become demonstrably, aggressively evil
	9:01pm Will the Sound Guy: Hi Rich and all!!!
	9:01pm Cp304: we had the sk-7 i think.. had a mic in the top right corner for sampling you could play back to tango beat and throw in fills
	9:01pm Mr Fab: Cp304: I recommend the official Sheena's tin foil hat. Stops Pootin's rays in their tracks!
	9:01pm ironybread: #Pooty
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: What? Really?
	9:01pm Rich in Washington: Hi Will The Sound Guy! How are we sounding?
	9:01pm Cp304: right O Fab!
	9:01pm Mokka Matti: I guess I didn't have a clue what was going on with Bandcamp. I haven't ever made very many purchases through it. Sounds like something else to avoid now.
	9:02pm Rich in Washington: Putin dances the poot. We must repeat.
	9:02pm ironybread: Mokka - you don't need to avoid them as such, just wade in and see what they have to offer, keeping in mind that they've decided to move in a very different direction and you may need to pivot away from them in future. For now, just enjoy what they have to offer
	9:03pm Rich in Washington: I think it's OK for a while, Mokka. It's probably the fairest platform for artists to date, which is why we're all in a lather about it being bought out.
	9:03pm Krys O.: I am feeling run down probably a side effect from the shingles vaccine I had earlier. Signing off. Thanks, everybody!
	9:03pm Kat in Chicago: Yeah it's very important to a lot of my friends, and the main source for what I play on my show
	9:04pm Kat in Chicago: I need to get that vaccine. Good night, Krys!
	9:04pm ironybread: "Not Always So", folks, that's the only rule.
	9:04pm ironybread: cheers Krys, be sure to listen to my show tomorrow which will be AWESOME
	9:05pm Kat in Chicago: I suggest you post your Casio Christmas pic on the playlist tomorrow ironybread
	9:06pm Rich in Washington: Ditto what Kat said.
	9:06pm ultradamno: It certainly made a lot of foreign stuff accessible than it otherwise would have been...I have to assume getting to the Syf catalog, for instance, would have been a chore without it.
	9:06pm Kat in Chicago: I might not be able to listen in real time this week, alas
	9:07pm Rich in Washington: Hope you feel better, Krys O!
	9:07pm ultradamno: *more accessible
	9:09pm Mr Fab: That time Maceo Parker jammed with Putin. And Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn were in the audience. musicformaniacs.blogspot.com... (Please don't actually play/listen to it.)
	9:10pm ironybread: HA FOUND IT! It was Xmas 1984. Scans of the Polaroids coming up!
	9:11pm ultradamno: Speaking of Syf and that I got an email saying their benefit comp is sold out with the note: 1. SUPPORT THE UKRAINIANS HOWEVER YOU CAN 2. FUCK PUTIN AND ALL THOSE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MADNESS
	9:12pm Cp304: hahahaaha Fab.. that finger point when he grabs the mic.. oh.. my fav blog of all time
	9:12pm Kat in Chicago: I'm making my BC Friday buy after this show and I think it will be heavy on the Ukraine benefit releases
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: oh god. I forgot about that, Fab!
	9:13pm Mr Fab: I wish I had!
	9:13pm Cp304: how bout the kids standing in the midst of that dna strain.. interesting
	9:13pm ultradamno: Also, No Rent Records digital discography is half off for the day norentrecords.bandcamp.com
	9:13pm Rich in Washington: Vodka helps
	9:14pm Cp304: i gotta put din on.. turning up to 11
	9:14pm ultradamno: That's "$17.50, for 190 + releases" including a nice Boy Dirt Car I already have
	9:16pm Mr Fab: This "Hush" is a tad different form the Deep Purple version. Daniel Menche def putting a unique spin on it.
	9:16pm Rich in Washington: I'll try to keep it suitably dinnery, Cp304
	9:17pm Kat in Chicago: Paulstretch?
	9:17pm Rich in Washington: Indeed! It's also somewhat melodic.
	9:18pm Rich in Washington: I don't think so. Menche's stuff is usually fairly minimally processed.
	9:18pm ultradamno: That benefit comp "WSPÓLNA SPRAWA" can still be purchase physically and digitally here plusztapes.bandcamp.com... and digitally only now here syfrecords.bandcamp.com...
	9:19pm Kat in Chicago: I was kidding! It has been very nice to listen to, seriously
	9:19pm ultradamno: I thought it was a misspelled ZZ Top cover
	9:21pm Kat in Chicago: Lawd take me downtown, I'm just looking for some ambient
	9:21pm Rich in Washington: sorry! I'm so tired I'm taking everything literally! My mind is going. I can feel it.
	9:23pm Rich in Washington: I just went looking for my sole Deep Purple LP (the best of) and it doesn't have Hush on it. What kind of bullshit is that?
	9:24pm Mr Fab: What?! Maybe they're gettin all hipster on us: "Sure, it was a big hit, but it wasn't their BEST..."
	9:24pm ironybread: #FuckYouVeryMuch #LanguageBarrier
	9:25pm Kat in Chicago: I don't think I could handle that Hush right now
	9:31pm ultradamno: I bought a vinyl copy of Messer für Frau Müller's Danger: Retrobolik a few Bandcamp Fridays ago through a Russian seller and Pay Pal put it on a temporary hold for security concerns. It went through in the end so I guess it wasn't for spy purposes. Fashion tips from Maria Butina twitter.com...
	9:32pm ironybread: Let's hear it for 1970, folks
	9:33pm Zipperhead7: Hi folks! Just jumped in midstream but better late than never. Always loved this Fahey track
	9:33pm Kat in Chicago: applauds
	9:34pm Rich in Washington: Hi Zipperhead7!
	9:34pm Kat in Chicago: "Dance of Death & Other Plantation Favorites." Now that's a title.
	9:36pm Zipperhead7: First heard "Dance of Death" on the Zabriskie Point soundtrack, speaking of 1970
	9:39pm Rich in Washington: I had this track on a cassette I taped off the radio as a teenager and it took me decades to figure out who had done it.
	9:43pm ultradamno: That's "occasional Red Crayola collaborator" John Fahey to me. theredkrayola.bandcamp.com...
	9:43pm ironybread: looking forward to digging into this new Sonic Youth joint
	9:44pm Zipperhead7: I've never been able to detect a trace of Fahey on that record
	9:44pm Rich in Washington: It's pretty reet on. Diggin' it.
	9:46pm Rich in Washington: I don't know if they're still online anywhere and don't have the mental bandwidth to look now but I recommend tracking down the Fahey mixtape. Someone put them on Soundcloud or some similar place, but apparently it was rips of a mixtape Fahey made for someone who worked at a Portland record store and they're pretty goddamn cray cray. A lot of his own music on it but also really bizarre.
	9:48pm Aitch: Saw some old SY from a morning kids music show 1998 for after the show of course. www.youtube.com...
	9:49pm Rich in Washington: it's pretty ludicrous getting sad about bands 'breaking up' these days ('breaking up' is just a stage of a band's monetization process - they'll get together again for a wheelbarrow of cash to play for the rich kids of the festival circuit) but SY breaking up means we'll likely never hear anything as 'experimental' sounding from these individuals again. Sad.
	9:52pm Aitch: SY were a must see whenever they came over. Real shame to never experience that again, transcendental
	9:54pm ultradamno: They needed to get out of the way of the Polish invasion anyway.
	9:59pm Mr Fab: Glad I got to see em, at a small club, right up front. And hung a bit with Thurstin and Kim at the old Rhino Records store circa 1984 or 85. I had bought “Bad Moon Rising” and really liked it but I don’t think they were too well known at that point. Nice folks.Kim told me that she didn’t like “Bad Moon Rising”’s dark, atmospheric production- exactly what i DID like about it! I noticed that their sound was usually brighter / more clear after that.
	10:00pm Rich in Washington: Love Bad Moon. Probably my all time favorite SY record.
	10:02pm ultradamno: @Rich Agreed!
	10:05pm ultradamno: The first time I saw them was at Hoosier Ballroom in 86. There's footage of it on You Tube. I saw them three or four times after that, it was always a dance party. I always thought people reacted to them as being much farther out than they were at that point. I mean they were never presented as crazy as Sun City Girls or anything.
	10:09pm ultradamno: There was that line in Juno about listening to Sonic Youth and it was just noise, I was hearing that from punks back then.
	10:09pm Mr Fab: They were a party when I saw em. On the other hand, they did a half-hour live show on PBS (believe it or not) mid-90s and it was pure improv mayhem. ”This isn’t even music, this is noise”- Mrs Fab
	10:13pm Rich in Washington: I think I saw them on the Sisters tour. Probably 87?
	10:14pm ultradamno: I remember Moore and Beck doing a live noise set on MTV (120 Minutes, I guess) which wasn't very mind blowing but pretty funny. I wonder if Micah could play it on his show as Scientology music.
	10:16pm ironybread: Here it is, folks, the Casio MT-68 I got for Christmas in 1984, which James Murphy later stole so that LCD Soundsystem could record "This Is Happening" pbs.twimg.com...
	10:18pm Cp304: Nuice ironybread.. i think my oldest sis still has our 7.. gonna dig..
	10:18pm Zipperhead7: Did that Casio have the presets that would play little tunes when you pressed a button?
	10:19pm ultradamno: The second time I saw them, Goo had just come out and Kool Thing was getting MTV airplay and suddenly a place like Bogarts was packed for them. Bewitched and STP (NOT Stone Temple Pilots) opened and I remember that latter band seeming visibly unprepared for the escalation. Bewitched were great, kind of lost band of that scene.
	10:19pm ironybread: wait wait, is somebody in Sonic Youth a Xenu-worshipper?
	10:19pm ultradamno: Nah, Beck is.
	10:20pm ironybread: ah, right, that I knew - thanks ultra
	10:20pm ultradamno: ...or was, I think he says he never was now.
	10:21pm ironybread: As long as Beck isn't an insane douchebag, I'll be content, regardless of his "religious" persuasions
	10:22pm Rich in Washington: OMG, ironybread! That picture! Pure xmas ecstasy!
	10:23pm Zipperhead7: I just looked up "Xenu," and that is some of the goofiest gruel since Kathryn Kuhlman
	10:23pm ironybread: Zip - the MT-68 did not really have any "demo" mode tunes it could play. Basically if you wanted to use it to play "California Girls" you had to learn the chord changes yourself
	10:24pm Kat in Chicago: yessss ironybread, love that pic
	10:24pm Cp304: there is a SA-39 downstairs that sis's friend left here.. still functions
	10:27pm ironybread: DO IT RICH
	10:28pm Cp304: alotta slides and knobs on that one irony!
	10:32pm Zipperhead7: Be careful with the prog, Rich. I heard a DJ say that if any prog tracks longer than eight minutes are played on WFMU, the signal automatically switches to an iPod loaded with surf guitar instrumentals
	10:34pm ultradamno: That is a sound policy choice!
	10:34pm ultradamno: Certainly a policy choice related to sound, for sure.
	10:34pm Rich in Washington: well, that's clearly bullshit...
	10:35pm Rich in Washington: <cues up side one of ELP's Tarkus>
	10:36pm ironybread: Oh dear, the Sheena's stream has gone away and now I seem to be listening to someone singing about black denim trousers and motorcycle boots i.discogs.com...
	10:36pm Aitch: The cover art? Something being birthed?
	10:36pm Zipperhead7: Ha ha ha . . . maybe he just meant the FM signal
	10:37pm Kat in Chicago: That might just be for the mothership. Georgy gave us "Supper's Ready" and "Heart of the Sunrise" not too long ago.
	10:38pm ironybread: Now it's playing "Kooky Deuce" i.discogs.com...
	10:38pm Rich in Washington: huh?
	10:39pm ironybread: (Rich, don't worry, everything I'm saying at the moment is a complete lie.)
	10:39pm Kat in Chicago: Rich, you are very tired and irony is pulling your leg.
	10:41pm Rich in Washington: It's OK. I can hear the show delayed by 15 seconds echoing from my living room.
	10:41pm Kat in Chicago: What the rat fuck is this?
	10:42pm Rich in Washington: heh. Been meaning to play this for some time.
	10:42pm Aitch: I'm told you need to tape them up or they split
	10:43pm ironybread: This gentleman has a very intruiguing rock-n-roll story www.discogs.com...
	10:43pm ultradamno: "COD" really dates this. The world just simultaneously agreed to stop doing that at some point
	10:44pm Cp304: "almost 32".. oh.. if only
	10:45pm Mr Fab: Ha, don’t know if ‘70s prog would trigger the Sheena stream. It would probably take U2 or Journey for it to kick in with the emergency surf novelties.
	10:47pm ironybread: His debut record was a triple-LP...in QUAD www.discogs.com...
	10:48pm Zipperhead7: OK, if he went to Elmira in 1962 and was paroled after a year and a half, how could he form the band on Jan. 31, 1963 in Rochester? Did he find a wormhole?
	10:48pm Kat in Chicago: Math is hard
	10:50pm ironybread: Fab, I like the thought experiment "What songs would cause the stream robot to take over someone's show?" I think a show should be filled with people's best guesses. I'll start us off: El DeBarge "Who's Johnny" Starship "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now"
	10:51pm Cp304: must be common core Kat
	10:51pm Aitch: Thanks for the Armand Rich and the link Taylor. Wow
	10:51pm Rich in Washington: How about anything by Starship or Jefferson Starship in general?
	10:52pm Aitch: That shit kills me Rich, please no
	10:52pm Cp304: C'mon now Aitch.. dance!
	10:53pm ironybread: One and only one Starship song is permitted: "Find Your Way Back". I can't explain
	10:53pm Aitch: i meant Jefferson anything, cheesy synth ok
	10:53pm ultradamno: I have to assume all those burglaries included lengthy and involved satirical soliloquies
	10:55pm Hams: did not know you could whistle in outer space.
	10:55pm Zipperhead7: I tried to play a Jefferson Starship album once but the tonearm went limp.
	10:55pm Cp304: great listening Rich.. hanging junglers..
	10:56pm Rich in Washington: Hi Hams!
	10:56pm ultradamno: You absolutely can, but no one can hear you
	10:56pm Scott67: Thanks Rich! ✌😎🌻🌏
	10:56pm Cp304: those can hams..
	10:57pm Kat in Chicago: Oh no, it's almost time for Bud/Bob
	10:57pm Aitch: steamed hams?
	10:58pm Hams: rich, hello! and all..
	10:58pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody!
	10:59pm ironybread: Oh, my, god. I worked with Nick Bougas for a year at a bookstore in Burbank
	10:59pm Rich in Washington: I'm auditioning this track for my new closing theme. Lovely, eh!
	10:59pm Rich in Washington: Oh wow, ironybread!
	10:59pm Pauly from Clifton: Thank you, Rich!
	10:59pm Cp304: pretty good.. his fight goes on
	11:00pm ironybread: Thank you for another glorious selection, Rich the Selector. Cheers man
	11:02pm Kat in Chicago: Thanks, Rich! See you on the marathon side!
	11:02pm Aitch: Ween's Pony song? I think it's his lung
	11:04pm WR: Thank you Rich in Washington and all y'all.
	11:04pm Mr Fab: Much thx, Rich! Loved it. Get some sleep folks, so we can get up in time for Jan’s swinging ‘78s and Ironybread’s wonderland of wonder tomorrow.
	11:05pm ironybread: PLEASE GIVE
	11:06pm Aitch: Ta Rich
	11:06pm Rich in Washington: Thanks everybody! Me go sleepy time now!
