Listener comments!
	7:01pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there David and all other listeners!
	7:01pm Bronwyn Bishop: HELLO EVERYONE!!!!! Virtual co-host Bronwyn B here! Don't forget to PLEDGE!!!!
	7:01pm nnaavvaall: Hi Dave! good luck with the pledgers!
	7:03pm northguineahills: come on, we need a Y3K pledge!
	7:03pm doctorjazz: Hello David and Bronwyn!
	7:05pm Bronwyn Bishop: GOOD IDEA NGH!
	7:06pm Observations: Hi all
	7:07pm Observations: Thanks to Bronwyn for the assistance!
	7:08pm Listener Gregory: I am here to interfere, so Bronwyn's assistance will definitely be needed.
	7:10pm Bronwyn Bishop: Bronwyn helps! Gregory hinders! Who will triumph?!?! Tune in to the next episode of Observations of Deviance to find out!
	7:15pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Choro Ritual" by "Bororo" This looks like a really interesting record.
	7:21pm Bronwyn Bishop: Moor Mother is so cool!!! Pledge to keep alive amazing freeform shows like this one that showcase such great & unique music
	7:22pm Observations: Still looking for the first donation of the night. Who will it be???
	🥁 7:23pm WR: I've given all I can, my PAYPAL is locked because I was donating so often that it triggered a denial of service attack security response. That sounds more hip than the actuality of my surpassing my budget. Would like to see a few first time donors tonight. That would be nice. I listened to WFMU for years before I finally starting to donate in 2019.
	7:24pm Observations: Rai Rai Rai!
	7:24pm Observations: 🇩🇿 Algeria
	7:25pm Bronwyn Bishop: WR you are a hero Also WR is right, first time donors are the best!!!! I remember my first $10 donation as a teenager, it was all I could give and that was ok! We love $10 pledges, and $1000 pledges, and every pledge in between
	7:39pm doctorjazz: At one point, $10 got you in the running for the prizes, which is how I got started sending WFMU money (strictly greed)! But it got me hooked...
	7:40pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Days Night" by "Phew" I know this is a bad question, but what IS this? Indigenous space music? Teen electronica? Japanese yodeling?
	7:40pm Observations: 1st donation from Steve M! Thanks!!!
	7:41pm Observations: Phew formed one of the 1st punk bands in Japan
	7:42pm Listener Gregory: Interesting. The fact that I could not identify the music in any way strikes me as being the essence of this show.
	7:52pm nnaavvaall: music-republic-world-traditional.blogspot.com...
	🥁 7:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "あたしのミックジャガー" by "天井桟敷" This 新高恵子 says Niitaka Keiko. 天井桟敷 is Tenjo Sajiki And what you played is from the album before the soundtrack for Throw Away the Books... rateyourmusic.com... Thank you for playing it, new to me.
	8:00pm Observations: www.discogs.com...
	8:06pm Bronwyn Bishop: A big THANK YOU and CONGRATS to STEVE!!!!! A true observer of deviance
	🥁 8:09pm WR: From what I am reading, I think Niitaka Keiko is an actress that was in the movie Throw Away the Books, We're Going Out in the Street. The discog link you shared is to a compilation release that combined the two albums, the two titles are as you have listed. And on the discogs page you can see that the album artist name is written 天井桟敷 which is Tenjo Sajiki. Again, thank you for introducing me to the music artist and the movie.
	8:09pm Bronwyn Bishop: BRIAN!
	8:09pm Bronwyn Bishop: -me shouting at Paul Dano at the Oscars on Sunday because he played Brian in a movie 8 years ago
	8:10pm Clifffiscal: thanks so much for the Phew LP!
	8:13pm northguineahills: quite contemporary for alvin curran...
	8:13pm nnaavvaall: ↳ northguineahills @8:13 and fun too!
	8:19pm Listener Gregory: Bronwyn, I am enjoying picturing you screaming at the Oscars.
	8:21pm northguineahills: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:13 yes!
	8:21pm Observations: Who will make the 2nd donation of tonight? It could be YOU!
	8:22pm Bronwyn Bishop: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:19 Lol I also shouted "MENTION THE SONGWRITERS!" during that weird Little Mermaid infomercial, because as Ashman and Menken's unofficial musical biographer I was obligated to shout about them
	8:22pm Bronwyn Bishop: If you pledge now you will be soooo likely to win another amazing prize!
	8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Bronwyn Bishop @8:22 I was counting on you.
	8:24pm nnaavvaall: The way I see it... it's an investment. I've listened your show twice and I have a shopping list a mile long. The way I see it... um... ok.
	8:27pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sarasiruga" by "Jaishankar & Valayapatti" This sounds like Junior Wells on acid.
	8:27pm Observations: Two more donations!!
	8:27pm Observations: Thanks!!!!!!
	8:28pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:27 takes notes
	8:29pm northguineahills: ↳ Bronwyn Bishop @8:22 will you be soooo likely you can sew it up (the prize)?
	8:29pm northguineahills: ok, time for by twice a week non-sunday nap....
	8:30pm nnaavvaall: Awwwwww!!!!! Gosh.
	8:30pm Bronwyn Bishop: statistical methods called eeny meeny miny mo
	8:30pm zzz: hey @observstions and all,
	8:30pm Bronwyn Bishop: yay gregory!!!! This could be YOU!!!!!
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: THANKS VERY MUCH, but I have already won some prizes, so maybe Jonathan should get this one. He is very worthy.
	8:31pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 gregoried!
	8:31pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 no more than anyone else really.
	🥁 8:33pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:24 Hah! A shopping list a mile long can result from many WFMU programs. I'm trying to accept that I should focus on the WFMU archives and not trying to own all the great recordings I've heard.
	8:33pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @8:33 I do have a story. Should I tell it?
	8:34pm nnaavvaall: Ok. you asked for it.
	8:34pm zzz: ↳ Song: "New Ghosts" by "Ava Mendoza" this rules. just saw some exciting AM news- spring/summer residency at union pool with incredible lineups (not sure if support/co-bills or playing together or what but looks killer!) avantmusicnews.com...
	8:35pm nnaavvaall: About 35 years ago I was listening to WFMU over the airwaves. It was special because I couldn't hear it where I lived in Brooklyn, but my friend lived on the Lower East Side. He could get it real good, too.
	8:36pm nnaavvaall: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:35 Well, we were listening, and I don't remember what show it was, but I heard a voice I hadn't heard in 10 years.
	8:37pm nnaavvaall: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:36 no 20 years. anyway, I lived in Florida for a short time, and when I got home from school I would take my shortwave with me to the docks.
	🥁 8:38pm WR: ↳ zzz @8:34 Thanks for the link, zzz. That location isn't convenient for me to get to but definitely something I am interested in.
	8:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "T & T" by "The Ornette Coleman Quartet" 👍
	8:39pm nnaavvaall: Every day, about 3:30pm, I would hear this voice. It was talking Spanish, and it was very strange mechanical sort of voice. I could recognize they were numbers, Spanish numbers. No one I asked had any idea what it was that I was hearing. My dad, sisters, no one knew.
	8:41pm nnaavvaall: That voice was the voice I had heard on WFMU was the same voice, the same mechanical voice speaking Spanish numbers. The recording was taken off of the CD Anthology called the Conet Project.
	8:41pm Listener Gregory: Ava Mendoza is an up-and-coming artist.
	8:42pm nnaavvaall: WFMU has always hooked me up with new strange sounds. I think David takes up that mantle rather well.
	8:43pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "T & T" by "The Ornette Coleman Quartet" Respect to the very great Ed Blackwell.
	8:44pm Bronwyn Bishop: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:42 An incredible story and more proof of how magical WFMU is!!!! This is why we pledge to keep it alive!!!
	🥁 8:44pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:41 Ah, so you were hearing the short wave source for the CD that you heard on WFMU. Funny flipped set of contexts.
	8:45pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:39 ❤️
	8:45pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @8:44 Yes... I found out it was really the tip of iceberg. Still listening to numbers 35 years later. Just started listening to WFMU again just recently.
	8:46pm peter: Hey David & co.. just got home and tuning in
	8:48pm Listener Gregory: I will make a further pledge if you will make it stop snowing.
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:43 Reminds me of the time I saw Blackwell-there was a listing somewhere that he was playing with Don Cherry at someplace on 3rd Ave off St Marks Place in Manhattan. I went to see them-it was a dive bar, upen in front to the street (it was summer), packed to the gills with some people there to see the duo, other regular patrons of the bar. It was a very weird, very NY scene (and it was great to see the duo).
	8:49pm Observations: Hi Peter!
	8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:48 It's snowing here in Central Joisey, hasn't started sticking yet (please don't make me clear snow, PLEASE don't make me clear snow...)
	🥁 8:50pm WR: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Wow, would have loved to see the Blackwell / Cherry duo. Their Mu recordings were seminal for me when they came out.
	8:51pm Observations: Still time to win the Ava Mendoza 💿
	8:51pm zzz: ↳ Song: "Third Planet / John Gilmore Solo" by "Sun Ra ‎and... wow. been to the horseshoe tavern. cool, small venue!
	8:52pm nnaavvaall: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 I think I was there.
	8:52pm Bronwyn Bishop: How can you not pledge to a show that plays music like this???
	8:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ WR @8:50 It was weird, as I said, most of the crowd was just there to drink at their usual haunt, with some of us jazz geeks standing in front of the duo to listen. Most of the crowd that night had no idea it was anything but bar background music.
	8:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:52 REALLY!!!!! THAT'S FREAKIN' AMAZING!!!!
	8:53pm nnaavvaall: ↳ doctorjazz @8:52 Yes... I remember that the club, but I think it only existed for 5 minutes.
	8:53pm nnaavvaall: funny right?
	8:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:53 It didn't last very long, true dat!
	8:54pm nnaavvaall: Yeah they couldn't figure out their clientele.
	8:54pm doctorjazz: On that note, gotta run, thanks David and Bronwyn!
	8:54pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Wow! I never got to hear him live. Also, I have over a foot of snow already, so this is really adding injury to injury (to my back).
	8:55pm zzz: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 awesome!
	🥁 8:58pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:54 Yikes, looking at the radar and it seems the snow will stop soon but unlikely to melt much until late in the day tomorrow.
	8:59pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Wrong Again" by "Anthony Moore" Cool! I really like this guys stuff.
	🥁 9:00pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:59 David has very interest show featuring interview with Anthony Moore last July. wfmu.org...
	9:01pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @9:00 Ohhh!!!!
	9:03pm zzz: oooh Shebang is such a great album!! definitely a fav from the past year someone needs to pledge for that!
	9:03pm nnaavvaall: I should make recordings of my cat, Tex. He sounds like a humpback whale sometimes.
	9:04pm Bronwyn Bishop: zzz is right, you definitely want this Oren Ambarchi!!!! $20 or more
	9:05pm zzz: the vinyl copy (at least mine did. i’m assuming this copy as well) comes with a huge foldout poster of the rainbow cake on the cover.
	9:06pm nnaavvaall: ↳ zzz @9:05 Great recording, great packaging. Nicely done all around.
	9:07pm zzz: Ambarchi’s “Ghosted” also from last year was another highlight. great companion to this one
	9:10pm Bronwyn Bishop: this is beautiful
	9:14pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "When I Was 18" by "David Moss & Christian Marclay" These guys are great. I've seen them in action, and it really is the living end. Really funny, too.
	9:14pm Clifffiscal: My 7 year old is drawing the line on this track...but we will power through
	9:15pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 hahaha!
	9:19pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 Let your 7 yr old know we are supporting him all the way.
	9:20pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey we've heard from farid on my show too (since he was a composer/performer for musical films!) what a guy!
	9:20pm Listener Gregory: I have to leave now, but thanks for an excellent pledge show, David. Bronwyn, you outlasted me... THIS time!
	9:21pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 Tell them, "If you don't like the current song, just wait a minute, and it will change to something completely different." Also, give them a cookie or something.
	9:36pm Bronwyn Bishop: It's the home stretch guys! How about a brand new swag for life pledge to really wrap up the show on the right note?!?
	9:41pm Observations: Another $100 donation!
	9:41pm Observations: Thanks Filip!!!
	9:43pm Bronwyn Bishop: We love FILIP!!!!
	9:44pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Fashion Like Edges" by "David Moss & Christian Ma... Another excerpt. Thanks Dave!
	9:54pm Bronwyn Bishop: the title of this album speaks to me
	9:57pm Bronwyn Bishop: thank you JONATHAN!!!!
	10:01pm Observations: Thanks 🙏 thanks 🙏
	10:02pm Observations: See you all next week

	7:03pm northguineahills: come on, we need a Y3K pledge!
	7:03pm doctorjazz: Hello David and Bronwyn!
	7:05pm Bronwyn Bishop: GOOD IDEA NGH!
	7:06pm Observations: Hi all
	7:07pm Observations: Thanks to Bronwyn for the assistance!
	7:08pm Listener Gregory: I am here to interfere, so Bronwyn's assistance will definitely be needed.
	7:10pm Bronwyn Bishop: Bronwyn helps! Gregory hinders! Who will triumph?!?! Tune in to the next episode of Observations of Deviance to find out!
	7:15pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Choro Ritual" by "Bororo" This looks like a really interesting record.
	7:21pm Bronwyn Bishop: Moor Mother is so cool!!! Pledge to keep alive amazing freeform shows like this one that showcase such great & unique music
	7:22pm Observations: Still looking for the first donation of the night. Who will it be???
	🥁 7:23pm WR: I've given all I can, my PAYPAL is locked because I was donating so often that it triggered a denial of service attack security response. That sounds more hip than the actuality of my surpassing my budget. Would like to see a few first time donors tonight. That would be nice. I listened to WFMU for years before I finally starting to donate in 2019.
	7:24pm Observations: Rai Rai Rai!
	7:24pm Observations: 🇩🇿 Algeria
	7:25pm Bronwyn Bishop: WR you are a hero Also WR is right, first time donors are the best!!!! I remember my first $10 donation as a teenager, it was all I could give and that was ok! We love $10 pledges, and $1000 pledges, and every pledge in between
	7:39pm doctorjazz: At one point, $10 got you in the running for the prizes, which is how I got started sending WFMU money (strictly greed)! But it got me hooked...
	7:40pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Days Night" by "Phew" I know this is a bad question, but what IS this? Indigenous space music? Teen electronica? Japanese yodeling?
	7:40pm Observations: 1st donation from Steve M! Thanks!!!
	7:41pm Observations: Phew formed one of the 1st punk bands in Japan
	7:42pm Listener Gregory: Interesting. The fact that I could not identify the music in any way strikes me as being the essence of this show.
	7:52pm nnaavvaall: music-republic-world-traditional.blogspot.com...
	🥁 7:55pm WR: ↳ Song: "あたしのミックジャガー" by "天井桟敷" This 新高恵子 says Niitaka Keiko. 天井桟敷 is Tenjo Sajiki And what you played is from the album before the soundtrack for Throw Away the Books... rateyourmusic.com... Thank you for playing it, new to me.
	8:00pm Observations: www.discogs.com...
	8:06pm Bronwyn Bishop: A big THANK YOU and CONGRATS to STEVE!!!!! A true observer of deviance
	🥁 8:09pm WR: From what I am reading, I think Niitaka Keiko is an actress that was in the movie Throw Away the Books, We're Going Out in the Street. The discog link you shared is to a compilation release that combined the two albums, the two titles are as you have listed. And on the discogs page you can see that the album artist name is written 天井桟敷 which is Tenjo Sajiki. Again, thank you for introducing me to the music artist and the movie.
	8:09pm Bronwyn Bishop: BRIAN!
	8:09pm Bronwyn Bishop: -me shouting at Paul Dano at the Oscars on Sunday because he played Brian in a movie 8 years ago
	8:10pm Clifffiscal: thanks so much for the Phew LP!
	8:13pm northguineahills: quite contemporary for alvin curran...
	8:13pm nnaavvaall: ↳ northguineahills @8:13 and fun too!
	8:19pm Listener Gregory: Bronwyn, I am enjoying picturing you screaming at the Oscars.
	8:21pm northguineahills: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:13 yes!
	8:21pm Observations: Who will make the 2nd donation of tonight? It could be YOU!
	8:22pm Bronwyn Bishop: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:19 Lol I also shouted "MENTION THE SONGWRITERS!" during that weird Little Mermaid infomercial, because as Ashman and Menken's unofficial musical biographer I was obligated to shout about them
	8:22pm Bronwyn Bishop: If you pledge now you will be soooo likely to win another amazing prize!
	8:23pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Bronwyn Bishop @8:22 I was counting on you.
	8:24pm nnaavvaall: The way I see it... it's an investment. I've listened your show twice and I have a shopping list a mile long. The way I see it... um... ok.
	8:27pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "Sarasiruga" by "Jaishankar & Valayapatti" This sounds like Junior Wells on acid.
	8:27pm Observations: Two more donations!!
	8:27pm Observations: Thanks!!!!!!
	8:28pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:27 takes notes
	8:29pm northguineahills: ↳ Bronwyn Bishop @8:22 will you be soooo likely you can sew it up (the prize)?
	8:29pm northguineahills: ok, time for by twice a week non-sunday nap....
	8:30pm nnaavvaall: Awwwwww!!!!! Gosh.
	8:30pm Bronwyn Bishop: statistical methods called eeny meeny miny mo
	8:30pm zzz: hey @observstions and all,
	8:30pm Bronwyn Bishop: yay gregory!!!! This could be YOU!!!!!
	8:31pm Listener Gregory: THANKS VERY MUCH, but I have already won some prizes, so maybe Jonathan should get this one. He is very worthy.
	8:31pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 gregoried!
	8:31pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:31 no more than anyone else really.
	🥁 8:33pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:24 Hah! A shopping list a mile long can result from many WFMU programs. I'm trying to accept that I should focus on the WFMU archives and not trying to own all the great recordings I've heard.
	8:33pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @8:33 I do have a story. Should I tell it?
	8:34pm nnaavvaall: Ok. you asked for it.
	8:34pm zzz: ↳ Song: "New Ghosts" by "Ava Mendoza" this rules. just saw some exciting AM news- spring/summer residency at union pool with incredible lineups (not sure if support/co-bills or playing together or what but looks killer!) avantmusicnews.com...
	8:35pm nnaavvaall: About 35 years ago I was listening to WFMU over the airwaves. It was special because I couldn't hear it where I lived in Brooklyn, but my friend lived on the Lower East Side. He could get it real good, too.
	8:36pm nnaavvaall: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:35 Well, we were listening, and I don't remember what show it was, but I heard a voice I hadn't heard in 10 years.
	8:37pm nnaavvaall: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:36 no 20 years. anyway, I lived in Florida for a short time, and when I got home from school I would take my shortwave with me to the docks.
	🥁 8:38pm WR: ↳ zzz @8:34 Thanks for the link, zzz. That location isn't convenient for me to get to but definitely something I am interested in.
	8:39pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "T & T" by "The Ornette Coleman Quartet" 👍
	8:39pm nnaavvaall: Every day, about 3:30pm, I would hear this voice. It was talking Spanish, and it was very strange mechanical sort of voice. I could recognize they were numbers, Spanish numbers. No one I asked had any idea what it was that I was hearing. My dad, sisters, no one knew.
	8:41pm nnaavvaall: That voice was the voice I had heard on WFMU was the same voice, the same mechanical voice speaking Spanish numbers. The recording was taken off of the CD Anthology called the Conet Project.
	8:41pm Listener Gregory: Ava Mendoza is an up-and-coming artist.
	8:42pm nnaavvaall: WFMU has always hooked me up with new strange sounds. I think David takes up that mantle rather well.
	8:43pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Song: "T & T" by "The Ornette Coleman Quartet" Respect to the very great Ed Blackwell.
	8:44pm Bronwyn Bishop: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:42 An incredible story and more proof of how magical WFMU is!!!! This is why we pledge to keep it alive!!!
	🥁 8:44pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:41 Ah, so you were hearing the short wave source for the CD that you heard on WFMU. Funny flipped set of contexts.
	8:45pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:39 ❤️
	8:45pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @8:44 Yes... I found out it was really the tip of iceberg. Still listening to numbers 35 years later. Just started listening to WFMU again just recently.
	8:46pm peter: Hey David & co.. just got home and tuning in
	8:48pm Listener Gregory: I will make a further pledge if you will make it stop snowing.
	8:48pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:43 Reminds me of the time I saw Blackwell-there was a listing somewhere that he was playing with Don Cherry at someplace on 3rd Ave off St Marks Place in Manhattan. I went to see them-it was a dive bar, upen in front to the street (it was summer), packed to the gills with some people there to see the duo, other regular patrons of the bar. It was a very weird, very NY scene (and it was great to see the duo).
	8:49pm Observations: Hi Peter!
	8:50pm doctorjazz: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:48 It's snowing here in Central Joisey, hasn't started sticking yet (please don't make me clear snow, PLEASE don't make me clear snow...)
	🥁 8:50pm WR: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Wow, would have loved to see the Blackwell / Cherry duo. Their Mu recordings were seminal for me when they came out.
	8:51pm Observations: Still time to win the Ava Mendoza 💿
	8:51pm zzz: ↳ Song: "Third Planet / John Gilmore Solo" by "Sun Ra ‎and... wow. been to the horseshoe tavern. cool, small venue!
	8:52pm nnaavvaall: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 I think I was there.
	8:52pm Bronwyn Bishop: How can you not pledge to a show that plays music like this???
	8:52pm doctorjazz: ↳ WR @8:50 It was weird, as I said, most of the crowd was just there to drink at their usual haunt, with some of us jazz geeks standing in front of the duo to listen. Most of the crowd that night had no idea it was anything but bar background music.
	8:53pm doctorjazz: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:52 REALLY!!!!! THAT'S FREAKIN' AMAZING!!!!
	8:53pm nnaavvaall: ↳ doctorjazz @8:52 Yes... I remember that the club, but I think it only existed for 5 minutes.
	8:53pm nnaavvaall: funny right?
	8:54pm doctorjazz: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:53 It didn't last very long, true dat!
	8:54pm nnaavvaall: Yeah they couldn't figure out their clientele.
	8:54pm doctorjazz: On that note, gotta run, thanks David and Bronwyn!
	8:54pm Listener Gregory: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 Wow! I never got to hear him live. Also, I have over a foot of snow already, so this is really adding injury to injury (to my back).
	8:55pm zzz: ↳ doctorjazz @8:48 awesome!
	🥁 8:58pm WR: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:54 Yikes, looking at the radar and it seems the snow will stop soon but unlikely to melt much until late in the day tomorrow.
	8:59pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Wrong Again" by "Anthony Moore" Cool! I really like this guys stuff.
	🥁 9:00pm WR: ↳ nnaavvaall @8:59 David has very interest show featuring interview with Anthony Moore last July. wfmu.org...
	9:01pm nnaavvaall: ↳ WR @9:00 Ohhh!!!!
	9:03pm zzz: oooh Shebang is such a great album!! definitely a fav from the past year someone needs to pledge for that!
	9:03pm nnaavvaall: I should make recordings of my cat, Tex. He sounds like a humpback whale sometimes.
	9:04pm Bronwyn Bishop: zzz is right, you definitely want this Oren Ambarchi!!!! $20 or more
	9:05pm zzz: the vinyl copy (at least mine did. i’m assuming this copy as well) comes with a huge foldout poster of the rainbow cake on the cover.
	9:06pm nnaavvaall: ↳ zzz @9:05 Great recording, great packaging. Nicely done all around.
	9:07pm zzz: Ambarchi’s “Ghosted” also from last year was another highlight. great companion to this one
	9:10pm Bronwyn Bishop: this is beautiful
	9:14pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "When I Was 18" by "David Moss & Christian Marclay" These guys are great. I've seen them in action, and it really is the living end. Really funny, too.
	9:14pm Clifffiscal: My 7 year old is drawing the line on this track...but we will power through
	9:15pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 hahaha!
	9:19pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 Let your 7 yr old know we are supporting him all the way.
	9:20pm Bronwyn Bishop: hey we've heard from farid on my show too (since he was a composer/performer for musical films!) what a guy!
	9:20pm Listener Gregory: I have to leave now, but thanks for an excellent pledge show, David. Bronwyn, you outlasted me... THIS time!
	9:21pm Listener Gregory: ↳ Clifffiscal @9:14 Tell them, "If you don't like the current song, just wait a minute, and it will change to something completely different." Also, give them a cookie or something.
	9:36pm Bronwyn Bishop: It's the home stretch guys! How about a brand new swag for life pledge to really wrap up the show on the right note?!?
	9:41pm Observations: Another $100 donation!
	9:41pm Observations: Thanks Filip!!!
	9:43pm Bronwyn Bishop: We love FILIP!!!!
	9:44pm nnaavvaall: ↳ Song: "Fashion Like Edges" by "David Moss & Christian Ma... Another excerpt. Thanks Dave!
