	9:01pm Androu B.: Good Evening, Harry! (You too again, MW!) Remember last seeing Tyler in a Skittles ad. He hasn't exactly aged well, but at least his voice hasn't shown any sign of giving out, as far as I can tell, which is something of a miracle.
	9:02pm JD LaRue: What's this wussy stuff Harry? I need something hard like Aerosmith.

	9:06pm JD LaRue: Tom Waits covers Janie Got a Gun
	9:06pm Becky Ebenkamp: Hello
	🥃 9:06pm Fatherflot: Heya Harry
	9:06pm Motobro: Ello HP !!
	🥃 9:06pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:06 did not know that
	🥃 9:06pm medson: Did you say 17k copies was top selling?
	🥃 9:07pm Harry Parmenter: hey Becky FF and Motobro! Thx for checking in. Appreciate it.
	9:07pm JD LaRue: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:06 No, I meant this sounds a little like if Tom Waits covered it
	🥃 9:08pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ medson @9:06 in first week, the album, then it tanked. Red White and You by far the worst thing he's ever been involved in
	🥃 9:08pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:07 ah ok got it
	🥃 9:09pm Harry Parmenter: Thanks everyone for stopping in. I know Aerosmith is not a staple here so i appreciate it. tried to dig deep
	🥃 9:09pm Will thee Sound Guy: Hi Harry and all!!! it got cold, came inside...
	🥃 9:09pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @9:09 hey will. still cold out here...for LA
	🥃 9:09pm medson: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:08 Makes ya wonder why he’d even try his hand at it
	9:09pm JD LaRue: Hey Aerosmith is an American staple!
	🥃 9:10pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ medson @9:09 yeah Joe Perry has made some great solo albums but ST just the one and I couldn't even bring myself to buy it.
	🥃 9:10pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:09 Damn straight JD! The American Rock Band of the 70s along with Alice in my book
	🥃 9:11pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:09 it was 60ish here in Chester... cleaned the grill really well, had to break it back in.
	9:11pm Becky Ebenkamp: Last year I interviewed Mark Radice, who was a child prodigy and ended up writing songs for a lot of people. Anyway, when he was 10 he was good friends with Steven. Later he asked him to join Aerosmith on the road when he was a teenager.
	9:11pm Max Danger: ↳ Song: "Dark is the Bark" by "The Left Banke" Hi Harry and Funhousers! The Left Banke made some timeless music. I swear evey time I've heard a song that I hadn't heard by them, I thought it was new.
	9:11pm JD LaRue: BTW Harry, watched that Brawl on Cell Block 99 Now that's a brutal film. About a notch above a snuff film. Next up Bone Tomahawk
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:11 yes LOVED that interview! bet he's got some stories. Those were their glory days
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 great band
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:11 yeah i can't watch Brawl. Bone T rocks
	9:12pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 I love them! Recently found a performing clip online. Don’t know if it was just put up but it was decent quality.
	🥃 9:13pm Harry Parmenter: Steven Tyler 75 years old. Makes me feel old. From Boston and saw them before they even got signed. Sentimental favorite.
	9:14pm Prowler: Aerosmith is really two bands- The self-destructive mess from the 70s that the band that made it to the bank in the 80s. Good for them.
	9:14pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 Hi, Will!
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:14 Indeed. But the best records were when they were out of their minds on drugs. But they have survived--and stayed intact, a rarity.
	9:15pm JD LaRue: Didn't know he covered this. Stones won't play it anymore so why not!
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:14 you must have shot them along the way?
	🥃 9:15pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:14 Hi Becky, that Mark Radice interview was great. I remember listening to it also
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:15 which is RIDICULOUS
	9:15pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:15 I second that
	9:15pm JD LaRue: Whenever Sweet Emotion comes on I put the pedal to the metal
	9:15pm Max Danger: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:12 Must be pretty new. I'll look for it. It's true. I was a twenty-something when I heard them and I just assumed they were a very hip 80s band. Haha!
	9:16pm JD LaRue: Just don't play any of those crappy ballads!
	9:16pm Becky Ebenkamp: Toys in the Attic and Rocks. And Dream On and anything Yardbirds ; )
	9:16pm Prowler: I did. Saw both iterations. Great show.
	🥃 9:16pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:16 there was only one great one and you'll hear it.
	9:17pm Becky Ebenkamp: Is he doing karaoke at this point?
	🥃 9:17pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:16 those are the two albums especially ROCKS. Masterpiece.
	🥃 9:17pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:17 now that's funny and painful at once
	9:17pm JD LaRue: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:16 well if it's the one from the 70s I don't really consider that one a ballad.
	9:18pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:15 I’d only seen the Where the Action Is clip which looks like the Bigfoot footage shot from a helicopter.
	9:18pm Motobro: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:15 It’s a bad ass tune. PERIOD
	🥃 9:18pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:17 i think you're thinking of something else.
	🥃 9:18pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Motobro @9:18 A-MEN
	9:19pm Max Danger: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:18 We might have to wait for the documentary.
	9:20pm Prowler: Remember it was a Canadian in Vancouver(Bruce Fairbairn) who saved their career
	9:20pm Motobro: Toys in the attic. Some good stuff on that one. No more no more. Sweet emotion
	🥃 9:20pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Motobro @9:20 absolutely great LP.
	9:21pm Becky Ebenkamp: My fave SS character (besides Hitler)
	🥃 9:21pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:20 That's right. Permanent Vacation. May he rest in peace. Some great songs on that record: St John, Hangman, Movie and of course the hits
	9:21pm Becky Ebenkamp: Sesame Street
	🥃 9:22pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:21 Had not heard it before
	🥃 9:22pm Fatherflot: The video with Run-DMC is probably the greatest in MTV history --- still
	9:22pm Androu B.: This would be Scott_Oz's fave ST tune! (If only he were here now!)
	🥃 9:22pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:22 Good point. Should have stuck that in here.
	9:22pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:22 New to me, too. He made it his own.
	🥃 9:23pm Fatherflot: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:22 For a lot of white teenagers, that opened the door for hip hop. The Beastie Boys busted it open, but Aerosmith was there first!
	🥃 9:24pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:23 And saved their career too
	9:25pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Fatherflot @9:23 Yep. And the Beastie Boys arrived soon after in case they had teething pains. I think that version was great.
	9:26pm Prowler: That RUN DMC/Aerosmith vid almost didn't happen. LUcky for all involve dit did!
	9:26pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Love Me Two Times" by "Aerosmith" Banger!
	🥃 9:26pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ HyperDose @9:26 F-in A!
	🥃 9:26pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:26 yeah I think tyler was sleeping on somebody's couch at that point
	9:26pm Androu B.: ↳ HyperDose @9:26 ¡Hola, HiperDosis!
	9:27pm Prowler: Great playlist tonight, Harry!
	🥃 9:27pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:27 Thank YOU Prowler! Glad you're here
	9:28pm Motobro: ↳ Fatherflot @9:22 Agree it is a worthy classic. GREAT musical composition too.
	🥃 9:28pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:27 And why this wasn't a monster hit I will never understand. Great video as I recall.
	🥃 9:28pm Fatherflot: ↳ Prowler @9:26 I remember reading a story about it. Run-DMC didn't even know the band's name. Daryl was like "Yeah, we down with Toys in the Attic!"
	🥃 9:29pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:28 yeah there's a whole book about it i read a while back and it's fascinating: www.amazon.com...
	9:29pm rychurd: Requesting The Chain Reaction.
	🥃 9:30pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ rychurd @9:29 Did they make any records? YOU would know I bet!?!!!!!
	🥃 9:30pm Harry Parmenter: If they did I blew it
	9:31pm rychurd: oh yeah. one single on Date. it's got a super cool yard irds go psychedelic thing going on
	🥃 9:31pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:28 they knew the WTW riff but not the name of it nor the band behind it
	🥃 9:31pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ rychurd @9:31 wow. i will check it out. thanks man.
	9:31pm HyperDose: ↳ Androu B. @9:26 Hola mi gente!
	🥃 9:32pm Fatherflot: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:31 interesting. Thanks.
	🥃 9:32pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:17 here you go JD
	9:33pm JD LaRue: ah more of a "power ballad"
	9:33pm Mike Sin: Listening in the car getting gas — rock it, Harry!
	🥃 9:33pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:33 it fit perfectly at the end of ROCKS, or as I like to call it, THE DOCUMENT
	🥃 9:33pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Mike Sin @9:33 Alright Mike thanks! Pump It Up!
	9:34pm Becky Ebenkamp: Oh yeah, I remember this one
	🥃 9:34pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:34 yeah i love it. they were at their peak
	9:35pm Becky Ebenkamp: I was just looking up Chain Reaction. I forget the band he was in when he was recording with Mark’s dad. He played drums tho.
	🥃 9:35pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:35 Mark's dad was in CR??
	9:37pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:35 No, he was an engineer who recorded Jimi Hendrix and a bunch of people. He recorded Steve’s next band.
	9:37pm MOM WHIG: HI EVERYBODY
	🥃 9:37pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:37 i see. yeah didn't Mark Radice do the LP with the cover of a piano in flames and hee's shirtless?
	🥃 9:38pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ MOM WHIG @9:37 HI MOM!
	9:38pm Cali4nyaStreamin': Had the first 4 Aerosmith albums on 8-track and vinyl. Nothing after that
	9:38pm Becky Ebenkamp: Hi, Mom!

	🥃 9:41pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Cali4nyaStreamin' @9:38 This is actually a good album: Night in the Ruts
	9:41pm Becky Ebenkamp: I was a Joe Perry fan. My sister died a streak of her hair after he did.
	9:42pm JD LaRue: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:41 DId he do that on purpose. I just assumed he had a weird skunk thing going.
	🥃 9:42pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:41 Joe is THE MAN! Interviewed him several times during the JP Project days. Down to earth. Huge Dolls fan.
	9:42pm JD LaRue: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:42 And lets not forget his acting chops on "Homicide"
	🥃 9:42pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:42 Emmy time
	9:43pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:42 That’s good to know! And I need to watch Homicide!

	9:46pm Cali4nyaStreamin': I plead the 5th
	9:47pm Becky Ebenkamp: I drew a copy of Draw the Line. It was pretty good!
	🥃 9:47pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Cali4nyaStreamin' @9:46 Indeed. DrawThe Line not bad although the junk was controlling them by then.
	🥃 9:47pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:47 you mean the Hirschfeld cover?
	9:47pm Prowler: Hi MOM!

	🥃 9:50pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:49 it's the truth

	🥃 9:11pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:09 it was 60ish here in Chester... cleaned the grill really well, had to break it back in.
	9:11pm Becky Ebenkamp: Last year I interviewed Mark Radice, who was a child prodigy and ended up writing songs for a lot of people. Anyway, when he was 10 he was good friends with Steven. Later he asked him to join Aerosmith on the road when he was a teenager.
	9:11pm Max Danger: ↳ Song: "Dark is the Bark" by "The Left Banke" Hi Harry and Funhousers! The Left Banke made some timeless music. I swear evey time I've heard a song that I hadn't heard by them, I thought it was new.
	9:11pm JD LaRue: BTW Harry, watched that Brawl on Cell Block 99 Now that's a brutal film. About a notch above a snuff film. Next up Bone Tomahawk
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:11 yes LOVED that interview! bet he's got some stories. Those were their glory days
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 great band
	🥃 9:12pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:11 yeah i can't watch Brawl. Bone T rocks
	9:12pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 I love them! Recently found a performing clip online. Don’t know if it was just put up but it was decent quality.
	🥃 9:13pm Harry Parmenter: Steven Tyler 75 years old. Makes me feel old. From Boston and saw them before they even got signed. Sentimental favorite.
	9:14pm Prowler: Aerosmith is really two bands- The self-destructive mess from the 70s that the band that made it to the bank in the 80s. Good for them.
	9:14pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:11 Hi, Will!
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:14 Indeed. But the best records were when they were out of their minds on drugs. But they have survived--and stayed intact, a rarity.
	9:15pm JD LaRue: Didn't know he covered this. Stones won't play it anymore so why not!
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:14 you must have shot them along the way?
	🥃 9:15pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:14 Hi Becky, that Mark Radice interview was great. I remember listening to it also
	🥃 9:15pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:15 which is RIDICULOUS
	9:15pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:15 I second that
	9:15pm JD LaRue: Whenever Sweet Emotion comes on I put the pedal to the metal
	9:15pm Max Danger: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:12 Must be pretty new. I'll look for it. It's true. I was a twenty-something when I heard them and I just assumed they were a very hip 80s band. Haha!
	9:16pm JD LaRue: Just don't play any of those crappy ballads!
	9:16pm Becky Ebenkamp: Toys in the Attic and Rocks. And Dream On and anything Yardbirds ; )
	9:16pm Prowler: I did. Saw both iterations. Great show.
	🥃 9:16pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:16 there was only one great one and you'll hear it.
	9:17pm Becky Ebenkamp: Is he doing karaoke at this point?
	🥃 9:17pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:16 those are the two albums especially ROCKS. Masterpiece.
	🥃 9:17pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:17 now that's funny and painful at once
	9:17pm JD LaRue: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:16 well if it's the one from the 70s I don't really consider that one a ballad.
	9:18pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Max Danger @9:15 I’d only seen the Where the Action Is clip which looks like the Bigfoot footage shot from a helicopter.
	9:18pm Motobro: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:15 It’s a bad ass tune. PERIOD
	🥃 9:18pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:17 i think you're thinking of something else.
	🥃 9:18pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Motobro @9:18 A-MEN
	9:19pm Max Danger: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:18 We might have to wait for the documentary.
	9:20pm Prowler: Remember it was a Canadian in Vancouver(Bruce Fairbairn) who saved their career
	9:20pm Motobro: Toys in the attic. Some good stuff on that one. No more no more. Sweet emotion
	🥃 9:20pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Motobro @9:20 absolutely great LP.
	9:21pm Becky Ebenkamp: My fave SS character (besides Hitler)
	🥃 9:21pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:20 That's right. Permanent Vacation. May he rest in peace. Some great songs on that record: St John, Hangman, Movie and of course the hits
	9:21pm Becky Ebenkamp: Sesame Street
	🥃 9:22pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:21 Had not heard it before
	🥃 9:22pm Fatherflot: The video with Run-DMC is probably the greatest in MTV history --- still
	9:22pm Androu B.: This would be Scott_Oz's fave ST tune! (If only he were here now!)
	🥃 9:22pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:22 Good point. Should have stuck that in here.
	9:22pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:22 New to me, too. He made it his own.
	🥃 9:23pm Fatherflot: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:22 For a lot of white teenagers, that opened the door for hip hop. The Beastie Boys busted it open, but Aerosmith was there first!
	🥃 9:24pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:23 And saved their career too
	9:25pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Fatherflot @9:23 Yep. And the Beastie Boys arrived soon after in case they had teething pains. I think that version was great.
	9:26pm Prowler: That RUN DMC/Aerosmith vid almost didn't happen. LUcky for all involve dit did!
	9:26pm HyperDose: ↳ Song: "Love Me Two Times" by "Aerosmith" Banger!
	🥃 9:26pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ HyperDose @9:26 F-in A!
	🥃 9:26pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:26 yeah I think tyler was sleeping on somebody's couch at that point
	9:26pm Androu B.: ↳ HyperDose @9:26 ¡Hola, HiperDosis!
	9:27pm Prowler: Great playlist tonight, Harry!
	🥃 9:27pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:27 Thank YOU Prowler! Glad you're here
	9:28pm Motobro: ↳ Fatherflot @9:22 Agree it is a worthy classic. GREAT musical composition too.
	🥃 9:28pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Prowler @9:27 And why this wasn't a monster hit I will never understand. Great video as I recall.
	🥃 9:28pm Fatherflot: ↳ Prowler @9:26 I remember reading a story about it. Run-DMC didn't even know the band's name. Daryl was like "Yeah, we down with Toys in the Attic!"
	🥃 9:29pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:28 yeah there's a whole book about it i read a while back and it's fascinating: www.amazon.com...
	9:29pm rychurd: Requesting The Chain Reaction.
	🥃 9:30pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ rychurd @9:29 Did they make any records? YOU would know I bet!?!!!!!
	🥃 9:30pm Harry Parmenter: If they did I blew it
	9:31pm rychurd: oh yeah. one single on Date. it's got a super cool yard irds go psychedelic thing going on
	🥃 9:31pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Fatherflot @9:28 they knew the WTW riff but not the name of it nor the band behind it
	🥃 9:31pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ rychurd @9:31 wow. i will check it out. thanks man.
	9:31pm HyperDose: ↳ Androu B. @9:26 Hola mi gente!
	🥃 9:32pm Fatherflot: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:31 interesting. Thanks.
	🥃 9:32pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:17 here you go JD
	9:33pm JD LaRue: ah more of a "power ballad"
	9:33pm Mike Sin: Listening in the car getting gas — rock it, Harry!
	🥃 9:33pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:33 it fit perfectly at the end of ROCKS, or as I like to call it, THE DOCUMENT
	🥃 9:33pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Mike Sin @9:33 Alright Mike thanks! Pump It Up!
	9:34pm Becky Ebenkamp: Oh yeah, I remember this one
	🥃 9:34pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:34 yeah i love it. they were at their peak
	9:35pm Becky Ebenkamp: I was just looking up Chain Reaction. I forget the band he was in when he was recording with Mark’s dad. He played drums tho.
	🥃 9:35pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:35 Mark's dad was in CR??
	9:37pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:35 No, he was an engineer who recorded Jimi Hendrix and a bunch of people. He recorded Steve’s next band.
	9:37pm MOM WHIG: HI EVERYBODY
	🥃 9:37pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:37 i see. yeah didn't Mark Radice do the LP with the cover of a piano in flames and hee's shirtless?

	🥃 9:41pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Cali4nyaStreamin' @9:38 This is actually a good album: Night in the Ruts
	9:41pm Becky Ebenkamp: I was a Joe Perry fan. My sister died a streak of her hair after he did.
	9:42pm JD LaRue: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:41 DId he do that on purpose. I just assumed he had a weird skunk thing going.
	🥃 9:42pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:41 Joe is THE MAN! Interviewed him several times during the JP Project days. Down to earth. Huge Dolls fan.
	9:42pm JD LaRue: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:42 And lets not forget his acting chops on "Homicide"
	🥃 9:42pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ JD LaRue @9:42 Emmy time

	9:46pm Cali4nyaStreamin': I plead the 5th
	9:47pm Becky Ebenkamp: I drew a copy of Draw the Line. It was pretty good!
	🥃 9:47pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Cali4nyaStreamin' @9:46 Indeed. DrawThe Line not bad although the junk was controlling them by then.
	🥃 9:47pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:47 you mean the Hirschfeld cover?
	9:47pm Prowler: Hi MOM!
	9:48pm Becky Ebenkamp: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:47 Yes!

	9:49pm Androu B.: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:47 Are you confessing to being a fan of Al Hirschfeld's work? Do you look for all the Nina's in his drawings?
	🥃 9:49pm Harry Parmenter: ↳ Becky Ebenkamp @9:49 yeah it was a good rendering. Nina! Right!!
	🥃 9:50pm Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Harry Parmenter @9:49 it's the truth
