	12:07pm DDDJJJ666: Don't ya just love when your $150 record has a pop in it? Adds to the realness
	♥ 12:08pm chresti: Where's Tony?
	12:09pm DDDJJJ666: He never existed
	12:09pm Dean: Tony's with Waldo.
	12:10pm DDDJJJ666: You know the movie Inception? That's what is happening right now
	♥ 12:11pm coelacanth∅: i've always thought that DDDJJJ666 is an alternate side of Tony, brought about when Tony takes his periodic caffeine fast
	12:12pm DDDJJJ666: I am a vestigial twin that lives in his perineum region
	♥ 12:13pm coelacanth∅: could you put the show on hold while i watch inception?
	♥ 12:16pm coelacanth∅: i hope Tony's a vegetarian then, for your sake. (and not the more common shit-diet kind of "vegan")
	12:16pm DDDJJJ666: It's like a Flaming Lips thing: if you watch Inception AND listen to this show at the same time, you will visualize Roger Waters on the Yellow Brick Road flipping Elton John off
	♥ 12:17pm coelacanth∅: haha
	♥ 12:17pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, that's doable.
	12:17pm DDDJJJ666: Tony is a breathatarian
	12:20pm DDDJJJ666: If you ever get the urge, listen to Fiat Lux's "Photgraphy" and then listen to RuPaul's "Adrenalin" and then go back to bed
	12:22pm rw: Good morning! This is a nightmare.
	12:22pm DDDJJJ666: At last, Nurse With Wound. DJ gets a pee break!
	♥ 12:22pm coelacanth∅: i don't have the means to watch inception so i'll have to settle for Melanie Safka flipping off Mark Farner on tobacco road.
	🥁 ♥ 12:23pm Mxter Baba: hi! omx, I still have a Boy George rag doll I made when I was about 13! xoxox
	♥ 12:24pm coelacanth∅: hey rw! happy nightmare baby
	12:25pm DDDJJJ666: If you put the Boy George ragdoll on Etsy, I will probably buy it
	12:26pm rw: Yocoe. Don't do it Baba.
	🥁 ♥ 12:26pm Mxter Baba: DDDJJJ666: do you have a collection?
	🥁 ♥ 12:26pm Mxter Baba: I can't imagine parting with my Boy George doll. <3
	♥ 12:27pm Franco Twinkie: Baba, Today is Chrestis birthday. I'm going to make her a mushroom pie.
	12:27pm DDDJJJ666: Not yet. I think the Boy George ragdoll is going to outpace bitcoin by the second quarter of 2024
	♥ 12:28pm coelacanth∅: i can't imagine owning a doll...although i did consider making a george bush voodoo doll
	🥁 ♥ 12:28pm Mxter Baba: Pranko: yummm! I totally forgot to wish her a joyous solar return!
	♥ 12:29pm coelacanth∅: chrestì Happy new year!
	12:30pm DDDJJJ666: Mekka-lekka-hi, Mekka-hiney-ho, person I don't know who is having a birthday
	♥ 12:30pm chresti: Thank you Mxterkins and coel🚫
	♥ 12:30pm Yvang: Hi DDDJJJ666 and non hipsters forks!
	♥ 12:31pm coelacanth∅: so you 2 have close birthdays, how close are your ages?
	♥ 12:31pm coelacanth∅: (or is that rude to ask, as i know Franco's age?)
	🥁 ♥ 12:32pm Mxter Baba: and chrestikins is here!!!!🎂🥳
	♥ 12:32pm Yvang: Happy hippie birthday Chresti!
	♥ 12:32pm chresti: I have a peewee puppet that actually belongs to my son.
	12:32pm DDDJJJ666: Merry not-Xmas Yvang!
	12:33pm DDDJJJ666: We have 2 Pee Wee dolls that are married
	♥ 12:33pm chresti: 65 Thanks Yvang!
	♥ 12:34pm never hipster -accused once but fuck that guy ∅: hey Yvang
	♥ 12:34pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, my birthday was exactly two weeks ago. I made myself a peach pie. I'm now 67 and a I don't give a fuck. Seriously.
	12:34pm Dean: I'd like a New York doll.
	12:35pm DDDJJJ666: I luv a New York Doll , L-U-V
	12:36pm Dean: Or a Peter Pan doll. You best believe.
	12:38pm DDDJJJ666: A Doll's House: best-Ibsen-evah!
	♥ 12:38pm coelacanth∅: i do have a life-size screamer monkey stuffed animal (that screams) -kind of a doll
	12:38pm Dean: Henrik Ibsen? He was on Laugh In, right?
	12:39pm DDDJJJ666: He was verrry interesting
	♥ 12:39pm coelacanth∅: but stoopid
	12:40pm rw: Chresti! Happy Birthday!!
	12:40pm DDDJJJ666: He took the brown acid. So stoopid
	♥ 12:40pm Franco Twinkie: I agree! We read it in high school and saw a very orange faded film of it with the lights on. Nora looked like a carrot.
	12:40pm Dean: That was Arte Johnson.
	♥ 12:41pm Yvang: Hey coel! you're not a hipster!
	12:41pm DDDJJJ666: Henryk is what Arte found so interesting
	♥ 12:41pm chresti: rw! Thanks!
	12:42pm DDDJJJ666: In Ibsen's first draft, Nora was a carrot
	♥ 12:43pm Franco Twinkie: I love fresh Nora juice.
	♥ 12:43pm coelacanth∅: Yvang -i know! ...and Thank you
	♥ 12:44pm coelacanth∅: Nora-orange-ginger juice
	12:44pm Dean: First quarter (semester?) of high school I had a bit part in the term's play, Ibsen's Peer Gynt. Best part of it was the power trio the director hired to perform the music, i.e., Grieg arranged as rock 'n' roll.
	12:45pm DDDJJJ666: Fer reelz?
	12:45pm DDDJJJ666: Did they play the entirety of Hawkwind's Hall Of The Mountain Grill?
	♥ 12:47pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, we also read The Zoo Story by Edward Albee. If I remember correctly, it featured hot dog buns.
	12:47pm DDDJJJ666: That is also one of my best features
	12:48pm Dean: Absolutely. Since I was offstage most of the show I'd sit backstage with the band. Truly inspired direction. They played Hall of the Mountain King, naturally, and the timbral palette was arguably Hawkwind-ish, but no. However, when I visited London in '76 I made a point to visit said grill. Zoo Story was a very popular high school production at the time (mid-'70s). A friend of mine, who happens to be a playwright, studied with Albee. I gather he was something of a perv.
	♥ 12:49pm coelacanth∅: i'd love to witness such an incarnation of peer gynt
	12:50pm DDDJJJ666: I was in My Fair Lady. Because I was so fair
	12:51pm DDDJJJ666: Speaking of musical theatre...
	12:51pm Dean: Anybody remember the television series Private Benjamin, based on the movie, which starred Goldie Hawn? Replacing Hawn on TV was Lorna Patterson. Lorna, a senior at the time, played Aase in the high school stage production. Lorna was also the singing stewardess in Airplane!
	12:51pm Dean: Anybody remember the television series Private Benjamin, based on the movie, which starred Goldie Hawn? Replacing Hawn on TV was Lorna Patterson. Lorna, a senior at the time, played Aase in the high school stage production. Lorna was also the singing stewardess in Airplane!
	12:52pm Dean: Sorry. Really, I'm sorry. Sorry.
	12:52pm DDDJJJ666: Never heard of it. I'm sure it is now on Blu-Ray
	♥ 12:53pm Franco Twinkie: Not surprising about Albee, Dean. Anyone who calls sex 'sticky-wet' prolly has some kinks.
	♥ 12:55pm WR: Hello Not-Tony, alias DDDJJJ666. Seems you have a history known to some, but not to me, alas. Our history starts now. Franco, happy belated birthday. And Chresti, Happy Birthday Today. I see that I didn't add an alert to my calendar which I've now corrected so in the future I will not need to read of the bdays in the comments. But I just read all the comments on this playlist up to this point so I am up to date for the moment. And hellos to Mxter Baba, Dean, coel, Yvang, rw, Sem, listener james from westwood and other drummer streamers.
	12:56pm Dean: Howdy, WR and all. Happy birthday, chresti!
	♥ 12:56pm chresti: WR! Thanks!
	♥ 12:57pm chresti: Thanks Dean!
	♥ 12:57pm coelacanth∅: hey WR!
	♥ 12:58pm coelacanth∅: (666 doesn't like parenthesis. how pretentious. he must be a hipster.)
	1:02pm DDDJJJ666: I don't use parentheses, personally. I use parthenogenesis instead
	♥ 1:03pm WR: drum flourish, rim shot, cymbal crash choke. Wonder if I will ever hear that Tory Amos joke again.
	1:04pm DDDJJJ666: If you do, the law suits will bee flying, I can tell you!
	1:04pm DDDJJJ666: The irony, of course, is that I always was a cornflake girl.
	♥ 1:05pm coelacanth∅: in my mind there's alice cooper, which was a band; and vincent furnier (sp?), a person who deceptively commandeered "alice cooper" when his band, who had far more talent than he, split up.
	1:06pm DDDJJJ666: I quite like Alice Cooper the person, up to a point. I wandered off somewhere around Dada
	1:07pm DDDJJJ666: That said, I am a died-in-the-wool Pretties For You superfan. Especially their Ice Capades outfits on the rear
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: i know. i've heard he's a sweet guy. but he seems very full of himself to me, and i never found his solo stuff very interesting.
	♥ 1:09pm coelacanth∅: pretties is a classic!
	1:10pm DDDJJJ666: And Easy Action, of course
	1:12pm DDDJJJ666: There is one thing this Tangerine Dream track is missing: parentheses
	♥ 1:12pm coelacanth∅: not love it to death? i know it's the "break-through" -i guess more commercially acceptable; but i think it's 100%...a perfect album
	♥ 1:13pm coelacanth∅: (well, except the production, which is just adequate)
	♥ 1:15pm David (in London): Evening Tony and all assembled Coultards!
	♥ 1:15pm David (in London): Damnit, I missed Fiat Lux!
	1:15pm DDDJJJ666: I wuv some LITD. Particularly the thumb cover
	1:16pm Dean: The WFMU Twitter feed recently featured a long account of Berkeley's storied Rather Ripped Records. It's now a coffee shop that I pass on the way to work. At least of couple of the interviewees recounted the story of Tangerine Dream's in-store appearance. RRR famously maintained very high volume when they played records. When TD arrived, they were playing the Clash, "White Riot." Edgar Froese asked them to turn it down, they refused, and Froese walked out the door. That's a kind of parenthesis.
	1:16pm DDDJJJ666: Hi David. Never miss your daily Fiat Lux!
	♥ 1:17pm coelacanth∅: hey David if you don't hear "greetings greetings greetings my radio friends" on the next mic break, it's 666
	♥ 1:17pm David (in London): Tony, I saw them donkeys years ago supporting Howard Jones, and they were superb. Bill Nelson's younger brother, yes?
	1:18pm DDDJJJ666: Correct. They're still kicking around
	1:19pm DDDJJJ666: I have complicated peni
	♥ 1:21pm David (in London): Blimey, it's an eclectic playlist today Tone and no mistake.
	1:21pm DDDJJJ666: When Tony's out of town, I take liberties
	♥ 1:22pm coelacanth∅: 666 @119 so does spain
	1:22pm Bri: PULP!!!
	1:22pm DDDJJJ666: "Eclectic" is code for "intolerable"
	1:23pm DDDJJJ666: Everyone, begin Pulping
	♥ 1:26pm David (in London): Duran Duran to Rudimentary Peni is totally tolerable in my book!
	1:27pm DDDJJJ666: God save...
	1:28pm DDDJJJ666: Time to spark a Spliff
	1:31pm DDDJJJ666: I would like to have Nina Hagen as a GPS voice
	1:35pm DDDJJJ666: Best Asia track ever
	🥁 ♥ 1:35pm Mxter Baba: hey there WR! hi Bri!!!
	1:37pm DDDJJJ666: Secret prog weapon: hand claps
	1:41pm DDDJJJ666: Did everyone get to enjoy a nightmare heatwave recently? Portland just came out of a week-long one. It feels like getting out of prison. A prison where the outside may blow up at any minute.
	♥ 1:52pm chresti: It's been in the 90s for the past 2 or 3 weeks, this past week with more humidity- in San Gabriel, ca
	1:53pm Dean: Which Francis Bacon? The applewood smoked one or the turkey one?
	1:56pm Dean: You know, I was listening to Rudimentary Peni the other day. No, wait, it was Henry Mancini.
	♥ 2:00pm coelacanth∅: Caetano Veloso has a song about a nightmare, i think... but that's portuguese, not spanish
	♥ 2:00pm coelacanth∅: (and of course, you still haven't played opal) (parenthesis^)
	2:01pm Tony Coulter: Portuguese for nightmare: also pesadilla
	2:02pm DDDJJJ666: Oops, forgot to switch my identity for a second
	2:03pm Dean: Sham 69 has a nightmare song.
	2:07pm DDDJJJ666: They do. I misplaced my copy
	♥ 2:08pm coelacanth∅: Billie Holiday's got one
	2:08pm Dean: Probably filed it as s-h-a-m [numerals] instead of ...s-i-x-t-y...
	♥ 2:09pm coelacanth∅: probably every song presently on the billboard top 40 is a nightmare
	2:12pm Dean: Current Billboard chart-toppers that aren't nightmares: Kate Bush, Doja Cat, Elton John & Dua Lipa, Cardi B
	♥ 2:13pm coelacanth∅: i have doubt about the other 3 not being nightmares, but -Kate Bush is on the top 40? hmmm
	2:15pm DDDJJJ666: I'm glad I invested so heavily in copies of Hounds Of Love rather than in pork bellies
	♥ 2:16pm coelacanth∅: yes, those other 3 are terrible. but how does running up that hill get onto the charts in 2022. must a tv show.
	2:16pm Dean: The resurgence of "Running Up That Hill," yes. I'm a fan of the other three. Your dreamworld may vary.
	2:18pm DDDJJJ666: I am hoping that season 5 of Stranger Things features Dan Fogelberg, because I have a fuck ton of those gathering dust in my shop
	♥ 2:18pm coelacanth∅: i just listened to a few seconds of the 2, and the Elton John i just assume is terrible. - not denying he was excellent at one time, over 40 years ago.
	2:19pm DDDJJJ666: At this point I feel like Elton is Blaster and his hair plugs are Master
	♥ 2:19pm coelacanth∅: ...so i should put my 3rd and last copy of hounds of Love for sale, i guess. been holding on tight...but everything's temporary.
	2:20pm DDDJJJ666: Those are like $75 to $100 now. More if marbled
	2:20pm Dean: I'll never understand the need that Fogelberg satisfied. I had my fingers crossed at the time that the album with Tim Weisberg would be the breakthrough, but no. Well, Dua Lipa is sublime, and Elton gets to rest on his laurels. It's a cute track; she sings his hit, he hers.
	2:20pm DDDJJJ666: Liverpool's greatest sons: A Flock Of Seagulls
	2:21pm Dean: Ferry cross the mercy!
	2:22pm DDDJJJ666: Frankie Goes To Hollywood does a great version!
	2:22pm DDDJJJ666: Big up to Merseyside!
	2:23pm Dean: Now you're channeling my local coffee shop, where the baristas have variously worn Crass and Rudimentary Peni t-shirts.
	♥ 2:24pm coelacanth∅: i didn't get that much for my copies of hounds of Love, but the best-condition copy's the one i still have. okay Dean, i'll give it a chance. just if it starts out with a typical, computer-generated "drum" rhythm like the other 2 -or if it has autotune in any capacity, i'm out
	♥ 2:25pm coelacanth∅: parenthesis ahead... (maybe i could've gotten more. probably.)
	2:25pm David in London: Pay no more than 99p for this record.
	2:25pm Dean: Not a whiff of computer with any of the artists I mentioned. They're all string quartets, a recital of verse, and a bari sax solo.
	2:26pm DDDJJJ666: I say bring back singing through a Leslie. And, by Leslie, I mean Gore
	2:27pm David in London: Link to PDF of an anthology of writing about Crass, including the opening chapter by yours truly. http://www.minorcompositions.info/?p=791#more-791 In case any one is interested. I’ll get my coat.
	2:27pm DDDJJJ666: I think I paid too many p for the Crass. Imma sue the UK
	♥ 2:27pm coelacanth∅: which end do you sing into?
	2:28pm Dean: You know that Al Gore invented the Leslie speaker?
	2:28pm DDDJJJ666: The trick is singing into the middle bit
	2:29pm DDDJJJ666: An inconvenient truth
	🥁 ♥ 2:31pm Mxter Baba: OK, I photographed my Boy George doll. His third eye burst open at some point, just like the real Boy George!
	♥ 2:33pm coelacanth∅: haha Dean...i guess you jest. the only truth in @225 is Doja Cat has no autotune. besides that, all music is computer programmed, and all voices assisted with autotune.
	2:34pm DDDJJJ666: Boy George ragdoll never needed no auto-tune.
	♥ 2:34pm coelacanth∅: (no drums. maybe the string quartets and the bari sax come in later?)
	2:36pm David in London: Mx Beekins!
	♥ 2:37pm WR: Mxter Baba, that Boy George doll looks like it gone through some wear over the years, but haven't we all as well.
	2:37pm DDDJJJ666: I will accept autotune if it is the only instrument. Even Blixa Bargeld tried autotune on Lament, and it didn't work.
	🥁 ♥ 2:37pm Mxter Baba: David in Londonkins!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 2:38pm Mxter Baba: WR, yes indeed, I'm amazed it's made it all the way through these last 40 years with me!
	🥁 ♥ 2:38pm Mxter Baba: I made it when I was 13 and the target audience for Culture Club and MTV
	2:39pm DDDJJJ666: All the Blitz Kids should have ragdolls
	🥁 ♥ 2:40pm Mxter Baba: YES!!
	2:40pm DDDJJJ666: I want a Rusty Egan ragdoll
	2:41pm David in London: My Rusty Egan doll is the envy of the neighbourhood.
	♥ 2:41pm coelacanth∅: autotune's okay when it's used as an instrument...don't know if that's the best way to put it; but -not to make singing "perfect" (whereby making it infinitely imperfect) or to "correct" the inadequacies of an okay, or a miserable singer
	2:42pm DDDJJJ666: I guess it's time I made my all autotune avant garde album
	♥ 2:43pm chresti: Mxter Bkins, nice Boy George doll! Is BG wearing a onsie?
	2:46pm David in London: Chrestikins! Has the BG doll chained anyone to a radiator yet?
	2:49pm DDDJJJ666: I'll tumble for your Boy George ragdoll
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: Davidkins!
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: *onesie
	2:54pm David in London: I’m voting for Tony!
	2:55pm DDDJJJ666: Thanks, freaks and Boy George ragdoll! Now go listen to something good.
	♥ 2:56pm WR: Oh, your time is over for today. Thanks for the sounds and entertainments.
	♥ 2:56pm coelacanth∅: i'll deal with that by not going to sleep tonight
	♥ 2:56pm coelacanth∅: Thanks 666!
	2:56pm David in London: Today’s show was an utter freakin’ mess. And I absolutely loved it.
	♥ 2:56pm StringOFperils: Thanks, DDDJJJ666. What a nightmare typing that out manually; what was I thinking?
	♥ 2:57pm chresti: Thanks for the nightmares dddjjj666!

	♥ 12:00pm listener james from westwood: Good Tuesday, DDDJJJ666 and all!
	12:01pm Dean: Nice surprise, DDDJJJ666. I met you in the record store in June, you might recall. Quite a pleasure.
	12:02pm DDDJJJ666: Hello again!
	12:03pm DDDJJJ666: I find that an early dose prog helps get all the waste materials out of your body
	♥ 12:04pm chresti: Hi DDDJJ666 and forks! That looks like a boy george doll.
	12:05pm DDDJJJ666: No, I'm just happy to see you
	♥ 12:05pm Franco Twinkie: Prog and fresh fruit every morning. Hi Tony!
	12:06pm Dean: Release Music Orchestra-y, Secret Oyster-y thing going on here, filtered through Canterbury.
	♥ 12:06pm coelacanth∅: greetings DDDJJJsexsexsex and all
	12:06pm DDDJJJ666: Guten Morgen, hosers!
	♥ 12:07pm Sem: Oh, boy. George. Hello, the dj formerly known as Tony, coultergeists, and like, lurkers and such.
	12:07pm DDDJJJ666: Don't ya just love when your $150 record has a pop in it? Adds to the realness
	♥ 12:08pm chresti: Where's Tony?
	12:09pm DDDJJJ666: He never existed
	12:09pm Dean: Tony's with Waldo.
	12:10pm DDDJJJ666: You know the movie Inception? That's what is happening right now
	♥ 12:11pm coelacanth∅: i've always thought that DDDJJJ666 is an alternate side of Tony, brought about when Tony takes his periodic caffeine fast
	12:12pm DDDJJJ666: I am a vestigial twin that lives in his perineum region
	♥ 12:13pm coelacanth∅: could you put the show on hold while i watch inception?
	♥ 12:16pm coelacanth∅: i hope Tony's a vegetarian then, for your sake. (and not the more common shit-diet kind of "vegan")
	12:16pm DDDJJJ666: It's like a Flaming Lips thing: if you watch Inception AND listen to this show at the same time, you will visualize Roger Waters on the Yellow Brick Road flipping Elton John off
	♥ 12:17pm coelacanth∅: haha
	♥ 12:17pm Franco Twinkie: Okay, that's doable.
	12:17pm DDDJJJ666: Tony is a breathatarian
	12:20pm DDDJJJ666: If you ever get the urge, listen to Fiat Lux's "Photgraphy" and then listen to RuPaul's "Adrenalin" and then go back to bed
	12:22pm rw: Good morning! This is a nightmare.
	12:22pm DDDJJJ666: At last, Nurse With Wound. DJ gets a pee break!
	♥ 12:22pm coelacanth∅: i don't have the means to watch inception so i'll have to settle for Melanie Safka flipping off Mark Farner on tobacco road.
	🥁 ♥ 12:23pm Mxter Baba: hi! omx, I still have a Boy George rag doll I made when I was about 13! xoxox
	♥ 12:24pm coelacanth∅: hey rw! happy nightmare baby
	12:25pm DDDJJJ666: If you put the Boy George ragdoll on Etsy, I will probably buy it
	12:26pm rw: Yocoe. Don't do it Baba.
	🥁 ♥ 12:26pm Mxter Baba: DDDJJJ666: do you have a collection?
	🥁 ♥ 12:26pm Mxter Baba: I can't imagine parting with my Boy George doll. <3
	♥ 12:27pm Franco Twinkie: Baba, Today is Chrestis birthday. I'm going to make her a mushroom pie.
	12:27pm DDDJJJ666: Not yet. I think the Boy George ragdoll is going to outpace bitcoin by the second quarter of 2024
	♥ 12:28pm coelacanth∅: i can't imagine owning a doll...although i did consider making a george bush voodoo doll
	🥁 ♥ 12:28pm Mxter Baba: Pranko: yummm! I totally forgot to wish her a joyous solar return!
	♥ 12:29pm coelacanth∅: chrestì Happy new year!
	12:30pm DDDJJJ666: Mekka-lekka-hi, Mekka-hiney-ho, person I don't know who is having a birthday
	♥ 12:30pm chresti: Thank you Mxterkins and coel🚫
	♥ 12:30pm Yvang: Hi DDDJJJ666 and non hipsters forks!
	♥ 12:31pm coelacanth∅: so you 2 have close birthdays, how close are your ages?
	♥ 12:31pm coelacanth∅: (or is that rude to ask, as i know Franco's age?)
	🥁 ♥ 12:32pm Mxter Baba: and chrestikins is here!!!!🎂🥳
	♥ 12:32pm Yvang: Happy hippie birthday Chresti!
	♥ 12:32pm chresti: I have a peewee puppet that actually belongs to my son.
	12:32pm DDDJJJ666: Merry not-Xmas Yvang!
	12:33pm DDDJJJ666: We have 2 Pee Wee dolls that are married
	♥ 12:33pm chresti: 65 Thanks Yvang!
	♥ 12:34pm never hipster -accused once but fuck that guy ∅: hey Yvang
	♥ 12:34pm Franco Twinkie: Coel, my birthday was exactly two weeks ago. I made myself a peach pie. I'm now 67 and a I don't give a fuck. Seriously.
	12:34pm Dean: I'd like a New York doll.
	12:35pm DDDJJJ666: I luv a New York Doll , L-U-V
	12:36pm Dean: Or a Peter Pan doll. You best believe.
	12:38pm DDDJJJ666: A Doll's House: best-Ibsen-evah!
	♥ 12:38pm coelacanth∅: i do have a life-size screamer monkey stuffed animal (that screams) -kind of a doll
	12:38pm Dean: Henrik Ibsen? He was on Laugh In, right?
	12:39pm DDDJJJ666: He was verrry interesting
	♥ 12:39pm coelacanth∅: but stoopid
	12:40pm rw: Chresti! Happy Birthday!!
	12:40pm DDDJJJ666: He took the brown acid. So stoopid
	♥ 12:40pm Franco Twinkie: I agree! We read it in high school and saw a very orange faded film of it with the lights on. Nora looked like a carrot.
	12:40pm Dean: That was Arte Johnson.
	♥ 12:41pm Yvang: Hey coel! you're not a hipster!
	12:41pm DDDJJJ666: Henryk is what Arte found so interesting
	♥ 12:41pm chresti: rw! Thanks!
	12:42pm DDDJJJ666: In Ibsen's first draft, Nora was a carrot
	♥ 12:43pm Franco Twinkie: I love fresh Nora juice.
	♥ 12:43pm coelacanth∅: Yvang -i know! ...and Thank you
	♥ 12:44pm coelacanth∅: Nora-orange-ginger juice
	12:44pm Dean: First quarter (semester?) of high school I had a bit part in the term's play, Ibsen's Peer Gynt. Best part of it was the power trio the director hired to perform the music, i.e., Grieg arranged as rock 'n' roll.
	12:45pm DDDJJJ666: Fer reelz?
	12:45pm DDDJJJ666: Did they play the entirety of Hawkwind's Hall Of The Mountain Grill?
	♥ 12:47pm Franco Twinkie: Dean, we also read The Zoo Story by Edward Albee. If I remember correctly, it featured hot dog buns.
	12:47pm DDDJJJ666: That is also one of my best features
	12:48pm Dean: Absolutely. Since I was offstage most of the show I'd sit backstage with the band. Truly inspired direction. They played Hall of the Mountain King, naturally, and the timbral palette was arguably Hawkwind-ish, but no. However, when I visited London in '76 I made a point to visit said grill. Zoo Story was a very popular high school production at the time (mid-'70s). A friend of mine, who happens to be a playwright, studied with Albee. I gather he was something of a perv.
	♥ 12:49pm coelacanth∅: i'd love to witness such an incarnation of peer gynt
	12:50pm DDDJJJ666: I was in My Fair Lady. Because I was so fair
	12:51pm DDDJJJ666: Speaking of musical theatre...
	12:51pm Dean: Anybody remember the television series Private Benjamin, based on the movie, which starred Goldie Hawn? Replacing Hawn on TV was Lorna Patterson. Lorna, a senior at the time, played Aase in the high school stage production. Lorna was also the singing stewardess in Airplane!

	12:52pm Dean: Sorry. Really, I'm sorry. Sorry.
	12:52pm DDDJJJ666: Never heard of it. I'm sure it is now on Blu-Ray
	♥ 12:53pm Franco Twinkie: Not surprising about Albee, Dean. Anyone who calls sex 'sticky-wet' prolly has some kinks.
	♥ 12:55pm WR: Hello Not-Tony, alias DDDJJJ666. Seems you have a history known to some, but not to me, alas. Our history starts now. Franco, happy belated birthday. And Chresti, Happy Birthday Today. I see that I didn't add an alert to my calendar which I've now corrected so in the future I will not need to read of the bdays in the comments. But I just read all the comments on this playlist up to this point so I am up to date for the moment. And hellos to Mxter Baba, Dean, coel, Yvang, rw, Sem, listener james from westwood and other drummer streamers.
	12:56pm Dean: Howdy, WR and all. Happy birthday, chresti!
	♥ 12:56pm chresti: WR! Thanks!
	♥ 12:57pm chresti: Thanks Dean!
	♥ 12:57pm coelacanth∅: hey WR!
	♥ 12:58pm coelacanth∅: (666 doesn't like parenthesis. how pretentious. he must be a hipster.)
	1:02pm DDDJJJ666: I don't use parentheses, personally. I use parthenogenesis instead
	♥ 1:03pm WR: drum flourish, rim shot, cymbal crash choke. Wonder if I will ever hear that Tory Amos joke again.
	1:04pm DDDJJJ666: If you do, the law suits will bee flying, I can tell you!
	1:04pm DDDJJJ666: The irony, of course, is that I always was a cornflake girl.
	♥ 1:05pm coelacanth∅: in my mind there's alice cooper, which was a band; and vincent furnier (sp?), a person who deceptively commandeered "alice cooper" when his band, who had far more talent than he, split up.
	1:06pm DDDJJJ666: I quite like Alice Cooper the person, up to a point. I wandered off somewhere around Dada
	1:07pm DDDJJJ666: That said, I am a died-in-the-wool Pretties For You superfan. Especially their Ice Capades outfits on the rear
	♥ 1:08pm coelacanth∅: i know. i've heard he's a sweet guy. but he seems very full of himself to me, and i never found his solo stuff very interesting.
	♥ 1:09pm coelacanth∅: pretties is a classic!
	1:10pm DDDJJJ666: And Easy Action, of course
	1:12pm DDDJJJ666: There is one thing this Tangerine Dream track is missing: parentheses
	♥ 1:12pm coelacanth∅: not love it to death? i know it's the "break-through" -i guess more commercially acceptable; but i think it's 100%...a perfect album
	♥ 1:13pm coelacanth∅: (well, except the production, which is just adequate)
	♥ 1:15pm David (in London): Evening Tony and all assembled Coultards!
	♥ 1:15pm David (in London): Damnit, I missed Fiat Lux!
	1:15pm DDDJJJ666: I wuv some LITD. Particularly the thumb cover
	1:16pm Dean: The WFMU Twitter feed recently featured a long account of Berkeley's storied Rather Ripped Records. It's now a coffee shop that I pass on the way to work. At least of couple of the interviewees recounted the story of Tangerine Dream's in-store appearance. RRR famously maintained very high volume when they played records. When TD arrived, they were playing the Clash, "White Riot." Edgar Froese asked them to turn it down, they refused, and Froese walked out the door. That's a kind of parenthesis.
	1:16pm DDDJJJ666: Hi David. Never miss your daily Fiat Lux!
	♥ 1:17pm coelacanth∅: hey David if you don't hear "greetings greetings greetings my radio friends" on the next mic break, it's 666
	♥ 1:17pm David (in London): Tony, I saw them donkeys years ago supporting Howard Jones, and they were superb. Bill Nelson's younger brother, yes?
	1:18pm DDDJJJ666: Correct. They're still kicking around
	1:19pm DDDJJJ666: I have complicated peni
	♥ 1:21pm David (in London): Blimey, it's an eclectic playlist today Tone and no mistake.
	1:21pm DDDJJJ666: When Tony's out of town, I take liberties
	♥ 1:22pm coelacanth∅: 666 @119 so does spain
	1:22pm Bri: PULP!!!
	1:22pm DDDJJJ666: "Eclectic" is code for "intolerable"
	1:23pm DDDJJJ666: Everyone, begin Pulping
	♥ 1:26pm David (in London): Duran Duran to Rudimentary Peni is totally tolerable in my book!
	1:27pm DDDJJJ666: God save...
	1:28pm DDDJJJ666: Time to spark a Spliff
	1:31pm DDDJJJ666: I would like to have Nina Hagen as a GPS voice
	1:35pm DDDJJJ666: Best Asia track ever
	🥁 ♥ 1:35pm Mxter Baba: hey there WR! hi Bri!!!
	1:37pm DDDJJJ666: Secret prog weapon: hand claps
	1:41pm DDDJJJ666: Did everyone get to enjoy a nightmare heatwave recently? Portland just came out of a week-long one. It feels like getting out of prison. A prison where the outside may blow up at any minute.
	♥ 1:52pm chresti: It's been in the 90s for the past 2 or 3 weeks, this past week with more humidity- in San Gabriel, ca
	1:53pm Dean: Which Francis Bacon? The applewood smoked one or the turkey one?
	1:56pm Dean: You know, I was listening to Rudimentary Peni the other day. No, wait, it was Henry Mancini.
	♥ 2:00pm coelacanth∅: Caetano Veloso has a song about a nightmare, i think... but that's portuguese, not spanish
	♥ 2:00pm coelacanth∅: (and of course, you still haven't played opal) (parenthesis^)
	2:01pm Tony Coulter: Portuguese for nightmare: also pesadilla
	2:02pm DDDJJJ666: Oops, forgot to switch my identity for a second
	2:03pm Dean: Sham 69 has a nightmare song.
	2:07pm DDDJJJ666: They do. I misplaced my copy
	♥ 2:08pm coelacanth∅: Billie Holiday's got one
	2:08pm Dean: Probably filed it as s-h-a-m [numerals] instead of ...s-i-x-t-y...
	♥ 2:09pm coelacanth∅: probably every song presently on the billboard top 40 is a nightmare
	2:12pm Dean: Current Billboard chart-toppers that aren't nightmares: Kate Bush, Doja Cat, Elton John & Dua Lipa, Cardi B
	♥ 2:13pm coelacanth∅: i have doubt about the other 3 not being nightmares, but -Kate Bush is on the top 40? hmmm
	2:15pm DDDJJJ666: I'm glad I invested so heavily in copies of Hounds Of Love rather than in pork bellies
	♥ 2:16pm coelacanth∅: yes, those other 3 are terrible. but how does running up that hill get onto the charts in 2022. must a tv show.
	2:16pm Dean: The resurgence of "Running Up That Hill," yes. I'm a fan of the other three. Your dreamworld may vary.
	2:18pm DDDJJJ666: I am hoping that season 5 of Stranger Things features Dan Fogelberg, because I have a fuck ton of those gathering dust in my shop
	♥ 2:18pm coelacanth∅: i just listened to a few seconds of the 2, and the Elton John i just assume is terrible. - not denying he was excellent at one time, over 40 years ago.
	2:19pm DDDJJJ666: At this point I feel like Elton is Blaster and his hair plugs are Master
	♥ 2:19pm coelacanth∅: ...so i should put my 3rd and last copy of hounds of Love for sale, i guess. been holding on tight...but everything's temporary.
	2:20pm DDDJJJ666: Those are like $75 to $100 now. More if marbled
	2:20pm Dean: I'll never understand the need that Fogelberg satisfied. I had my fingers crossed at the time that the album with Tim Weisberg would be the breakthrough, but no. Well, Dua Lipa is sublime, and Elton gets to rest on his laurels. It's a cute track; she sings his hit, he hers.
	2:20pm DDDJJJ666: Liverpool's greatest sons: A Flock Of Seagulls
	2:21pm Dean: Ferry cross the mercy!
	2:22pm DDDJJJ666: Frankie Goes To Hollywood does a great version!
	2:22pm DDDJJJ666: Big up to Merseyside!
	2:23pm Dean: Now you're channeling my local coffee shop, where the baristas have variously worn Crass and Rudimentary Peni t-shirts.
	♥ 2:24pm coelacanth∅: i didn't get that much for my copies of hounds of Love, but the best-condition copy's the one i still have. okay Dean, i'll give it a chance. just if it starts out with a typical, computer-generated "drum" rhythm like the other 2 -or if it has autotune in any capacity, i'm out
	♥ 2:25pm coelacanth∅: parenthesis ahead... (maybe i could've gotten more. probably.)
	2:25pm David in London: Pay no more than 99p for this record.
	2:25pm Dean: Not a whiff of computer with any of the artists I mentioned. They're all string quartets, a recital of verse, and a bari sax solo.
	2:26pm DDDJJJ666: I say bring back singing through a Leslie. And, by Leslie, I mean Gore
	2:27pm David in London: Link to PDF of an anthology of writing about Crass, including the opening chapter by yours truly. http://www.minorcompositions.info/?p=791#more-791 In case any one is interested. I’ll get my coat.
	2:27pm DDDJJJ666: I think I paid too many p for the Crass. Imma sue the UK
	♥ 2:27pm coelacanth∅: which end do you sing into?
	2:28pm Dean: You know that Al Gore invented the Leslie speaker?
	2:28pm DDDJJJ666: The trick is singing into the middle bit
	2:29pm DDDJJJ666: An inconvenient truth
	🥁 ♥ 2:31pm Mxter Baba: OK, I photographed my Boy George doll. His third eye burst open at some point, just like the real Boy George!
	♥ 2:33pm coelacanth∅: haha Dean...i guess you jest. the only truth in @225 is Doja Cat has no autotune. besides that, all music is computer programmed, and all voices assisted with autotune.
	2:34pm DDDJJJ666: Boy George ragdoll never needed no auto-tune.
	♥ 2:34pm coelacanth∅: (no drums. maybe the string quartets and the bari sax come in later?)
	2:36pm David in London: Mx Beekins!
	♥ 2:37pm WR: Mxter Baba, that Boy George doll looks like it gone through some wear over the years, but haven't we all as well.
	2:37pm DDDJJJ666: I will accept autotune if it is the only instrument. Even Blixa Bargeld tried autotune on Lament, and it didn't work.
	🥁 ♥ 2:37pm Mxter Baba: David in Londonkins!!!!
	🥁 ♥ 2:38pm Mxter Baba: WR, yes indeed, I'm amazed it's made it all the way through these last 40 years with me!
	🥁 ♥ 2:38pm Mxter Baba: I made it when I was 13 and the target audience for Culture Club and MTV
	2:39pm DDDJJJ666: All the Blitz Kids should have ragdolls
	🥁 ♥ 2:40pm Mxter Baba: YES!!
	2:40pm DDDJJJ666: I want a Rusty Egan ragdoll
	2:41pm David in London: My Rusty Egan doll is the envy of the neighbourhood.
	♥ 2:41pm coelacanth∅: autotune's okay when it's used as an instrument...don't know if that's the best way to put it; but -not to make singing "perfect" (whereby making it infinitely imperfect) or to "correct" the inadequacies of an okay, or a miserable singer
	2:42pm DDDJJJ666: I guess it's time I made my all autotune avant garde album
	♥ 2:43pm chresti: Mxter Bkins, nice Boy George doll! Is BG wearing a onsie?
	2:46pm David in London: Chrestikins! Has the BG doll chained anyone to a radiator yet?
	2:49pm DDDJJJ666: I'll tumble for your Boy George ragdoll
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: Davidkins!
	♥ 2:52pm chresti: *onesie
	2:54pm David in London: I’m voting for Tony!
	2:55pm DDDJJJ666: Thanks, freaks and Boy George ragdoll! Now go listen to something good.
	♥ 2:56pm WR: Oh, your time is over for today. Thanks for the sounds and entertainments.
	♥ 2:56pm coelacanth∅: i'll deal with that by not going to sleep tonight
	♥ 2:56pm coelacanth∅: Thanks 666!
	2:56pm David in London: Today’s show was an utter freakin’ mess. And I absolutely loved it.
	♥ 2:56pm StringOFperils: Thanks, DDDJJJ666. What a nightmare typing that out manually; what was I thinking?
	♥ 2:57pm chresti: Thanks for the nightmares dddjjj666!
