	9:12am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning
	9:13am D Rok: ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... I've heard this performed live recently, though I can't remember where. It was maybe the Cleveland Symphony when I was there last year. It was maybe a small concert at the Pittsburgh Opera studios last fall. Either way, beautiful tune. And the translated lyrics are DEVISTATING.
	9:13am JB: ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... This certainly is lovely. Quite ethereal
	9:14am MrDeb: Wow, this is so beautiful. Thank you Trouble. Exactly what I need right now and I didn't know it.
	9:14am D Rok: ↳ D Rok @9:13 You can read the lyrics here: web.ics.purdue.edu...
	9:16am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "as the earth kissed the moon ( excerpt)" by "Mich... adds to my infinite queue of releases i need....
	9:17am Trouble: thank you D Rok. those lyrics are gorgeous and painful.
	9:17am Dances with Moomins: ↳ D Rok @9:14 Wow.
	9:18am D Rok: ↳ Trouble @9:17 Thank YOU Trouble. I've now had a good cry for the day!
	9:21am Steve Del Sol: I used to laugh at opera. Then I saw a friend of mine, an operatic singer perform live. It is difficult to not cry now.
	9:22am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... Aloha! +1 for Górecki
	9:23am StringOFperils: Trouble! AND sorrow!! What better way to start the day?!
	9:23am Delicate Chester: ↳ MrDeb @9:14 2nded
	9:23am Crownless Gander: Whoa, did not expect that major resolution!
	9:23am Chris Hiatt: ↳ D Rok @9:14 Thanks for sharing. Gives it that much more gravity to read the translation. Really enjoying this, Dawn Upshaw is a total ringer.
	9:24am Acid Cazh: This is doing such wonders for my poor rattled brain on a super chaotic and stressful workday morning.
	9:24am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	9:25am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Für Luise" by "cluster & brian eno" yes, please, and thank you

	9:28am Trouble: hey mona, cheers!
	9:31am ?: just saw "funny pages".. are there any movies that have this rare quality.. would like to see more
	9:32am Andrea C: Hello Trouble and troubled people.
	9:32am money&pain: You always make my cry, Trouble.
	9:33am sphere: hello peoples.:)
	9:34am The Oscar: My favorite version is Leonard Nimoy!
	9:34am Chris Hiatt: I missed the boat on Melanie, and now she's crossed over. I need to fill in the blanks, where's a good place to start?
	9:35am Ben from Newark: I love PREX! Liz's parents live 10 mins away from Princeton, so we try to visit it whenever we're down there.
	9:35am Crownless Gander: What! No Zuckerzeit! Crazy, man.
	9:35am sphere: Hard to believe, really.
	9:35am Charles in Chicago: I used to live in Princeton, have spent so many hours and probably thousands of $ at PRX over the decades! I am getting a little nostalgic now... don't know if I'll ever be back there.
	9:35am knickerbocker: Princeton record exchange - woot! Is hoagie haven still in business (I hope)?
	9:35am mark: thanks for melanie
	9:36am Acid Cazh: I bought my wife a copy of pwrmnstr two years ago and she jumped up and down like a happy kid at Christmas when she opened it. (It was a re-issue, not one of the $200 original pressings...)
	9:36am Joey C: Just had to chime in and say the obvious. Amazing programming Trouble. Loving everything. Also love PRX. Go there every RSD.
	9:36am Charles in Chicago: ↳ knickerbocker @9:35 I used to go to a place called Small World Coffee - actually still have a "Grumpy Monkey" coffee mug from there
	9:36am Gainstager Liquid: ↳ Song: "Für Luise" by "cluster & brian eno" this guy man, his discography is diverse, but his lifestyle choices and musical taste juxtaposed to what was going on, is on a higher plane, really.
	9:36am Acid Cazh: LET ME TRY THAT AGAIN: I bought pwrmnstr a copy of Zückerzeit two years ago and she jumped up and down like a happy kid at Christmas when she opened it. (It was a re-issue, not one of the $200 original pressings...)
	9:37am Scott McDowell: Pretty sure zuckerzeit is in the Cluster CDs.<3
	9:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:36 I was really confused.
	9:38am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... I wanted to say that Beth Gibbons of Portishead did a pretty good version of this. It doesn't surpass the Upshaw but it's surprisingly good.
	9:38am northguineahills: I can see liberty state park right now out the window! looks out the window ok, if it wasn't misting right now, I could see it....
	9:38am sphere: Dunno if I have Zuckerzeit. Cluster 71 is awesome-sauce, though.
	9:39am northguineahills: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @9:38 wow, i need to find that!
	9:39am northguineahills: ↳ sphere @9:38 I have zuckerzeit (but my recs are still in fl)
	9:39am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @9:38 "After the Heat" is very good too
	9:41am Acid Cazh: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:37 So was I, apparently 🤣
	9:41am Ben from Newark: Paul Fireman made his fortune from Reebok. So he draws the ire of both Trouble and Bucci...
	9:42am Acid Cazh: No one gets that kind of money without exploiting a veritable multitude of honest workers. Anyone that rich is morally bankrupt by default.
	9:43am TDK60: Public park turning to private? I now decree no such mischief shall transpire. Period.
	9:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:42 Speaking of morally bankrupt, I have to go to the bank. Back in half a mo.
	9:43am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:42 truth
	9:43am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hopefully more WFMU listeners will get involved in what’s happening in JC.
	9:43am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 I coudn't find it on bandcamp but DID find a "reimagining" of it by of all people, Colin Stetson. Scary.
	9:45am knickerbocker: Small world coffee was amazing! I still miss me some cheesesteak hoagies. Ah the days.
	9:45am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" Fahey! (and i don't have this album!)
	9:45am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 Web says both Hoagie Haven and Small World Coffee are still in operation. It's been at least 20 years for me.
	9:46am Trouble: @knickerbocker: YES! weird... but still kickin
	9:46am Dances with Moomins: I had the screen blacked out....and then thought: this is John Fahey! ( and I don't have this album ) saw him once at the Bottom Line
	9:47am Trouble: @charles in chicago: legend has it that the couple who opened the BEST ice cream shop evah ( bent spoon) met while working at small world coffee
	9:47am Pete from Hoboken: Ugh. Anyone else fatigued by all the “development” going on in J.C. and Hoboken? I agree it’s an amazing oasis in the area and should be left alone. To be honest, I don’t want to see one more plan with a goshdarn pickleball court. Just leave it be, not everything needs to be improved, if there is space, kids figure out what to do with it.
	9:47am Regina J: It’s awful: one of the worst things to come out of this is the false narrative pushed by Fireman that the folks who are trying to preserve the park don’t care about the needs of lower-income residents. When I attended a presentation by the EPA, there were a bunch of young people there who were shouting things like “you care more about birds and fish than you do about kids!” Someone there tried to convince me that Fireman wasn’t trying to make a buck off the privatization, because he (and I quote) “does things for the community under the table all the time. You’re all just hating on him because he’s a successful businessman.” Ummmm, sure.
	9:47am Trouble: merci@ scott mcdowell!
	9:48am bobdoesthings: Because of John Fahey I imposed a rule on one of my guitars that it may never be put in standard tuning, has to be an alternate tuning. Not that Fahey didn't play in standard but.. some of his open chord tunings inspired the decision
	9:49am Toothgrinder Tom: I should be listening to more John Fahey.
	9:49am bk845: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @9:49 Start with Sunflower River Blues, that's his most important work.
	9:49am StringOFperils: Fahey. A champion of the really cheap guitar. Wire and wood and imagination.
	9:49am Acid Cazh: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:48 As I type this I have three guitars hanging on the wall and one in a case on the floor. Four different tunings, none of them standard.
	9:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Did I miss something re privatization of LSP? Seems like that never goes away completely.
	9:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Thanks @BK847, I will!
	9:51am knickerbocker: @trouble Long time listener, first time commenter. Your show is tops, trouble! Many many years of gratitude.
	9:51am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:49 Acid Cazh and bobdoesthings. What alternate tunings are you using?
	9:52am Trouble: super thanks to you, for tuning in... @knickerbocker!
	9:52am bobdoesthings: @peter - D minor is new favorite DADFAD, C and G open are fun for fahey stuff.. heres a link of Fahey's tunings for his songs = www.johnfahey.com...
	9:53am Dances with Moomins: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @9:49 Death Chants, Breakdowns, & Military Waltzes was my Fahey introduction.
	9:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... was outside when you played the Górecki. one of the great parts for string basses--the opening you mentioned. it's so subtle and complex. it makes me wish i still played.
	9:53am Trouble: @toothgrinder Tom: it will not go away until the NJ senate passes the protect liberty state park act. meanwhile the evil doer billionaire chips away at the park by creating a false story of the park advocates not caring about children.
	9:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 that D minor tuning was favored by Skip James
	9:54am cherry98: wow, thank you so much for this fahey.
	9:55am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Trouble @9:53 "I'm not doing this to make a profit." Said no billionaire ever.
	9:56am Handy Haversack: Neither Joe Bataan nor Robyn Hitchcock is sold out at White Eagle Hall, so it's clear JC still has some work to do on its priorities.
	9:56am Handy Haversack: "Fare Forward, Voyageurs!" is how I say goodbye to the Continental Subway riders every week! It's from Eliot.
	9:57am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 bobdoesthings, thanks for the link. I've periodically messed about with open tunings, but I'm far from being conversant.
	9:57am Acid Cazh: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @9:51 First single for my old band had the G tuned up to G#, but I haven't used that tuning in a long time. Right now I've got: #1: Standard but B string is tuned up to C #2: Standard but high E string is tuned down to D #3: Standard but low E string is tuned down to D #4: Both #1 and #2 at the same time So... nothing very exotic at the moment (except maybe #4), always just one or two strings off. For awhile I had my "fuck-around-with guitar" tuned entirely down a full step, plus #2 above ... but that guitar (which was a gift to me from a stranger I met in a bar the day before he was moving to Canada to live with his park ranger girlfriend, not even kidding) is an old Seagull with some truss rod issues and a hole in the face of it and it just can't hold tuning or intonation, so I'm trying to think of creative ways to dispose of it.
	9:57am Andres: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:56 Where is the nearest teleport station and I’m there.
	9:58am bobdoesthings: @peter from saranac - I think that's the reason I like alternate tunings. it forces me to be creative and experimental - can't use my regular voicings , hands gotta dance in different ways
	9:59am ranjit: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" I grew up listening to my parents' Fahey christmas music album, so this piece keeps suggesting "joy to the world" to me
	9:59am bobdoesthings: Sonic Youth - also very fun with the alternate tunings
	9:59am rx "rexy" scabin: There are guitarists, and then there is John Fahey.
	9:59am cherry98: wow, thank you so much for this fahey.
	9:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:54 I mostly go between DADFAD, DADGAD, and standard.
	10:00am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:59 (and I should pick up the guitar more often, it's sitting in the corner looking neglected)
	10:00am Acid Cazh: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:59 I've never tried DADFAD, I'm going to have to give it a whirl!
	10:01am cherry1998: fahey is that b*th, there has to be onle one. (affectionate). some of the most ornate guitar artistry ever
	10:01am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:00 Remember when golf ties were the new DADFAD?
	10:01am bobdoesthings: @acid cazh - F to Fsharp and its major. - That flatted third is where it's at though. :p
	10:01am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:00 If you've never listened to Skip James check him out. Actually Fahey did a great version of James' "Special Rider Blues", it's interesting to compare the two versions.
	10:01am sphere: Don't forget Lou Reed's legendary Ostrich tuning: every string tuned to D
	10:02am Chris Hiatt: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:59 Yep! Also, Joni Mitchell, I think?
	10:02am Andres: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:01 Khakis endure.
	10:02am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:01 (And for bonus points listen to Fred Frith's recording of the same tune, it sounds like he's covering Fahey covering James)
	10:02am sphere: Skip James is absolutely harrowing on Hard Time Killing Floor Blues. A must listen.
	10:02am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" Hillbillies untie!
	10:03am cherry1998: 'ostrich tuning' damn
	10:03am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bobdoesthings @10:01 It's easier to bring the minor third up to a major when you want than it is to try to drop it (if tuned to a maj3)
	10:04am Firepitmama: This Fahey accompanied me from Mountain Lakes to Pompton Lakes on my foggy ride home. And now sitting in my driveway listening to the rest. Just beautiful! Thanks, Trouble.💙
	10:04am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:02 Yes!
	10:04am Ben from Newark: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 Thanks! Based on this, I see the Blind Joe Death material is mostly in standard tuning. Makes sense, as it's traditionals and original compositions which are an homage to this. But once he moves over to alternate tunings, it's like the whole universe opens up
	10:04am Dan near StL: Saw Fahey at small venue, Schuba’s in Chicago late in his life. Played a Strat, he asked small crowd, “Anyone have a chunk of metal I can borrow?” I handed him my Leatherman mini multi tool, and he proceeded to play some other worldly soaring slide guitar. No, he did give it back, and thanked me. What a night.
	10:05am rx "rexy" scabin: @sphere also "God moves on the Water" by W. Johnson.
	10:05am cherry1998: amazing
	10:07am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Chris Hiatt @10:02 Joni Mitchell, incredible guitarist with all kinds of different tunings. And if we're talking alt. tuning I just have to mention Glen Jones and his "partial capos".
	10:07am Handy Haversack: Yeah, sometimes Eliot could really bring it.
	10:10am TDK60: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:07 Hello Chi-Charles. I read that S.Y. was interested in Joni's tunings.
	10:10am sphere: I saw Fahey at an '90s NC festival that was almost all laptop music. All that digital sound was hard on the ears, and when Fahey took the stage he mercilessly mocked the rest of the festival for that all-digital sound.
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: Does Leo Kottke use alternate tunings? I've seen a lot of guitar player and think "I see what he's doing...but doubt I could do it." With Kottke, I honestly can't figure out what he's doing.
	10:11am Acid Cazh: Just made a note to self: --------------- Charles in Chicago says Listen to: - Skip James - Fahey playing Skip James's "Special Rider Blues" and compare the two - Fred Frith's "Special Rider Blues" while we're at it ....and now I have to mute the radio for a video meeting with our head office overseas. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee
	10:12am Charles in Chicago: ↳ TDK60 @10:10 they did have a song called "Hey Joni"
	10:12am sphere: And I do remember Fahey playing the hell out of Hard Time Killing Floor Blues at a venue in Austin--he was opening for NNCK I believe.
	10:12am Dan near StL: His, “Hear The Wind Howl”, just astonishing, one of his best vocals too.
	10:13am still b/p: ↳ Song: "memory band" by "minnie riperton" This is veryyyy nice.
	10:13am sphere: While we are talking fingerstyle guitar, please DO NOT forget Blind Willie Johnson's Dark Was The Night Cold Was The Ground. A copy of that is heading out to interstellar space on the Voyager Golden Record.
	10:14am PKNY: ↳ Song: "memory band" by "minnie riperton" Charles Stepney was a genius
	10:14am StringOFperils: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:11 Yes, especially when he employs 'bottleneck' slide > www.guitarmusic.org...
	10:15am Ben from Newark: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:11 Yeah, he uses some alternate tunings. I learned how to play his arrangement of "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", and it's in Open F Sharp (C♯-F♯-C♯-F♯-A♯-C♯).
	10:16am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ StringOFperils @10:14 Thanks! @BenfromNewark too.
	10:17am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:12 It's 1969 ...
	10:17am Philip: dig this.
	10:18am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ bobdoesthings @10:01 Fascinating discussion. Thank you.
	10:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:13 Not to be pedantic but it's fair to say Voyager 1 has reached interstellar space, about 15 billion miles from home! In fact we just lost contact with it in Dec. "Dark was the night", indeed!
	10:18am tom tom the pipers son: good morning.... missed some groovy stuff...shucks...
	10:18am bobdoesthings: I am swamped with work right now.. and urgent deadlines.. but... must ... resist .. urge to... play with alternate tunings... ok let me just.. just for a minute..
	10:20am traven: ↳ sphere @10:13 Pity that Led Zeppelin stole one of his songs.
	10:21am sphere: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:18 But Charles, when does interstellar space end? It's still going. :)
	10:22am StringOFperils: ↳ sphere @10:21 When/if it's drawn inside the heliosphere of another star
	10:22am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:21 After Interstellar Space comes Cosmic Music
	10:24am Handy Haversack: ↳ sphere @10:21 We can call the occupants and ask, but the long-distance charges are pretty rough.
	10:24am sphere: ↳ StringOFperils @10:22 And the Voyager Golden Record is definitely "out" for sure!
	10:24am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:22 and after that, Infinity ... and nothing more
	10:25am Philip: so chill
	10:25am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:24 "Come in, tardigrades. Do you copy?"
	10:26am Trouble: great show last sunday @ ben from newark! you blew up the comments page!!
	10:27am bixa: ↳ Song: "turn my back on you" by "sade" yes yes yes yes & yes yes yes yes. happy late birthday sade!
	10:28am eric from lake hiawatha: Classic Sade. Thank you. I stopped working to dance in my seat.
	10:29am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Song: "turn my back on you" by "sade" this is interesting
	10:33am Failure of commenting: Junkman cometh!
	10:35am Arlene: I'm sorry but that is the worst thing I've ever heard (Stark Reality)
	10:35am Yes: greetings all
	10:35am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "too much tenderness" by "stark reality" I think my mind isn't open enough for that one.
	10:37am HyperDose: ↳ Song: "sweet stuff" by "sylvia" soooo sensual. yeowza!
	10:39am Philip: oh alright now
	10:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "too much tenderness" by "stark reality" I missed this and had to go back, given the commentary. So bad it's almost kind of good! Those out of tune vocals over the smooth groove.
	10:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): so much colleen-adjacent stuff today i'm gonna have to go listen to A flame my love, a frequency at some point later on.
	10:46am Yes: ↳ Song: "the sun swirls with you" by "arushi jain" nice title
	10:49am ?: This is a good show. Is there a way to sign up for an email list or show reminders or something?
	10:52am Handy Haversack: ↳ @10:49 Every Thu. at 9 AM Eastern (U.S.) time -- best way to make sure you don't miss it is to never turn off WFMU!
	10:52am HyperDose: ↳ @10:49 (to bookmark) WFMU schedule: www.wfmu.org...
	10:53am Trouble: thanks@?; i am on air every thursday morning 9-noon. i dont have an email list
	10:53am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "beezus, beeten, breep" by "David Rothenberg" Diamond Dave's highbrow pseudonym?
	10:54am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Song: "beezus, beeten, breep" by "David Rothenberg" David has a new book with sound examples on the sounds under ponds.
	10:54am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:52 Never get off the boat!
	10:55am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:54 Exactly.
	10:55am Robm: ↳ @10:49 in other words don’t go to work or eat at all nor do any chores
	10:56am Handy Haversack: I have a meeting at 11. I am going to leave the Modern World on in the headphones but won't be able to chit-chat. Thanks, Trouble! Fine stuff today. Hope to run into you Sat. evening. Stay Troubled, everyone.
	10:56am still b/p: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @10:54 SM Ken = Kurtz?
	10:56am Trouble: david rothenberg was a guest on this show in june of 2017. interesting stuff!
	10:56am HyperDose: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 Be safe out there, fam!
	10:57am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 stay modern, baby. all that's solid melts into air.
	10:58am northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 I'll tag handy out (just finished a meeting)
	10:58am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @10:56 i'm going to start using that as an email sign-off, instead of "best." what do you think? all that's solid melts into air, bryan
	10:59am Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:58 I like it! All that glisters is not gold, Handy
	10:59am Zip7: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:58 If it's good enough for Karl Marx and Marshall Berman, it's good enough for anyone!
	11:00am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Zip7 @10:59 marshall was a hero. marx, too. but marshall was flesh and blood to me.
	11:00am HyperDose: ↳ northguineahills @10:58 Buenos dias, hombre de ciudad!

	11:07am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Love this ZOOM history. My childhood too.
	11:07am still b/p: "Joe don't know what he's talking about, You put in an envelope without a doubt..."
	11:07am Leslie Karon: Fanny Dooley LOVES ZOOM
	11:08am HyperDose: ↳ Robm @11:01 Trying to get on the list for a transitional housing program, but that wait can be 12-18mo. Going to have to send my valuables to a friend and shelter it for a while. All because of the Colorado dept of revenue's clerical error which cost me my livelihood. Soaking up as much WFMU love while I still have internet 💜
	11:08am Son Of Pantz: Oh how hard I practiced trying to do that Zoom thing with your arms. To no avail.
	11:08am unpopularfred: I would so proud when my sister moved to 02134 (I eventually moved there ten years later)
	11:11am Edgar from Maine: I had a cartoon I made featured on Zoom in 1977!
	11:11am βrian: And think of the cost of all the ice cream left at the checkout by frustrated customers.
	11:12am rsj: try the coop on a weekend
	11:12am βrian: Conversation opener: "Is that a check you're writing?"
	11:13am northguineahills: I saw a checkout in cohoes, ny at a co-opt where they had a 'social checkout' lineup two three weeks ago.
	11:13am northguineahills: errr, three weeks ago...
	11:15am Beast of Boonton: The NJ plastic bag ban has backfired too. The problem is worse now.
	11:15am Toothgrinder Tom: Oh unknown performer, I’m a big fan of hers!
	11:16am Robm: ↳ HyperDose @11:08 damn hyper that really stinks guy, hope it gets better this year
	11:17am Dan S: Would you like to name that offensive supermarket chain here, Trouble? I am a bit curious.

	11:18am pmcWhenever: I went to school with one who was a semi regular on Zoom, a cast Zoom kid, i mentioned that ZoomFeet are dirty TV feet, studio-dusty bare feet, he smiled at that but was too cool for shoes (still as a young adult), and mostly remembered how cold the GBH studios were…
	11:18am Robm: @NGH congratulations on getting your digs in february @Dan S i think trouble wants to protect the guilty
	11:18am Mister Dobalina: Shucks, no Milli or Vanilli on today's show.

	11:19am Mxter Baba: and hello, Trouble, Troubled and all!
	11:20am Mister Dobalina: Just found out that Milli Vanilli covered Ma Baker.
	11:20am still b/p: Funny to recall Zoom kids in early 70s doing song-and- choreography musical numbers like Rock Island Line.
	11:20am βrian: What's up with Trouble's Bruin, DJ Ice Pack?
	11:21am Robm: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:19 hey mixter how are things in california?
	11:22am Zip7: One of the best PBS docs I ever saw was about Duke Ellington. Every time he was onstage, he was incandescent. In 1969 he played a high school prom in Oklahoma City one night and the White House the next
	11:22am Amber: ↳ Song: "trinidad" by "willie bobo" This sounds like Rex's intro song for Fool's Paradise, very nice :)
	11:23am Mxter Baba: ↳ Mister Dobalina @11:20 wait what? hi, @RobM, we meet again!
	11:23am northguineahills: ↳ Robm @11:18 thanks!
	11:24am HyperDose: Thanks, Robm & MxBB. You're good people 💚
	11:24am Trouble: @ brian: dj icepack has graduated from college!!! and works in an academic library while he is applying to grad school for library science! crazzeee
	11:24am Mxter Baba: ↳ still b/p @11:20 I was a total Zoom kid, but haven't reviewed it as an adult. Hmmm…
	11:24am Toothgrinder Tom: @pmcWhenever some time ago I read an article about a 50 or so year old man who refused to wear shoes outside and the trouble it got him into. He said the shoes aggravated some foot condition but people were not very tolerant of him.
	11:24am Nick S.: Joe Bataan! Big fan.
	11:25am Mxter Baba: ↳ Nick S. @11:24 yeah, this is great!
	11:25am HyperDose: ↳ Nick S. @11:24 Knew the name, couldn't place the sound. This is nice!
	11:26am Trouble: giving away two pairs of tickets to joe bataan! send an email to trouble @ wfmu.org and i will let you know when i get off air who wins
	11:28am Nick S.: That's fantastic, Trouble! Wish I could go.
	11:29am prof.fuzz: morning y'all
	11:29am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Mxter Baba @11:23 Yup, nowhere nearly as good as the original. Check it out, if you dare. It's on da 'Tube.
	11:29am Karl: ↳ Song: "subway joe" by "joe bataan" Hey hey!
	11:29am Sera from Rockaway: ↳ Song: "subway joe" by "joe bataan" YAY
	11:29am βrian: ↳ Trouble @11:24 He's joining the Order of the Foxed Vellum? Far out. We welcome him!
	11:29am Chris Hiatt: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:29 fuuuzzzzz...
	11:30am the serpent: This song is doing its job!
	11:30am prof.fuzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:29 chrissssssss... howya doin'?
	11:31am Robm: ↳ HyperDose @11:24 i have found most of the people on here to be good people so it has restored my faith in humanity @NGH your most welcome @trouble good luck to dj ice pack
	11:31am still b/p: Yah yah cha cha set.
	11:34am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "a change" by "Aretha Franklin" nice - very stapley
	11:36am Chris Hiatt: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:30 A little groggy but it's clearing up. What's the haps in TX?
	11:37am Amber: ↳ Song: "give me tonight" by "shannon" air keytar 😎
	11:39am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ooh! kind of excited to see what holly herndon will cook up for the whitney biennial. whitney.org...
	11:39am pmcWhenever: @ToothTom thats funny prob not the same peep but maybe Zoom contributed to his way …
	11:40am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "let's all make a bomb" by "heaven 17" Oh man, thought I recognized that chord progression!
	11:40am Lucky: The set is so great, that I feel great.
	11:40am common: ↳ Song: "let's all make a bomb" by "heaven 17" good 'un!
	11:40am briania: Dancin' thru that Shannon transition!
	11:41am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:24 was this for me? i'm kind of blown away that he's through college. we have a lot of students in our department who do a joint degree in literature and library science. seems like a good way to cover bases and get a lot of great coursework.
	11:41am prof.fuzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:36 kinda damp today from a few days of rain. i'm reading discussion board posts written by my students, waiting on the ups guy to deliver a new skateboard to me.
	11:42am Trouble: @ listener bryan, no there is another listerner who is brian and a librarian who asked after dj icepack...
	11:42am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ βrian @11:20 Ah! I see it's for a different βrian who also knows DJ Icepack!
	11:43am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:42 I saw that. I search for "Brian" to see where the question came from and missed it because of the funky B on βrian. :)
	11:44am βrian: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:43 I'm still in beta, so to speak.
	11:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Brian and Bryan are of course different names and βrian is something else altogether I suppose. Lots of Bry/ians and Profs up in the mix today hee hee.
	11:45am Mister Dobalina: Much prefer the SMH instead. But we have no choice.
	11:45am briania: Gettin Brianish in here
	11:45am Ben from Newark: ↳ Trouble @10:26 Thank you so much Trouble! :)
	11:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ben from Newark @11:45 Wait, what the hell? Are we already to thank yous? How did that happen? Too fast!
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ briania @11:45 high five emojis all around
	11:49am Karl: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Are the backup singers singing “tortilla”? I hope so.
	11:49am Sera from Rockaway: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Did he say musky?
	11:49am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, and big congrats to your son! Cheers everyone, holding onto hydro by a thread, multiple outages this morning, but more on than off. Yay?
	11:49am Ben from Newark: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:46 This is a delayed reply to Trouble's nice words about my Radio Row (I had to step away for an hour and missed it). Thanks for all of your kind words on Sunday as well!
	11:49am prof.fuzz: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:44 guilty (of the professor part) as charged, and though my name isn't bryan/brian, my band plays in bryan tx a few times per year.
	11:50am prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl @11:49 all of our b/u singers sing "taco"
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ prof.fuzz @11:49 And I'm happiest when wrapped in fuzzy bass lines so there we are.
	11:51am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" I thought he said "ridin' in her lemon car" and I was imagining a Richard Scarry situation.
	11:51am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:50 I have a song with my friend that we sing taco in the bg
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ben from Newark @11:49 It was great, Ben. I really enjoyed it.
	11:51am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" I'd say there's some Kraftwerk influence in this tune.
	11:51am bk845: I personally am offended that the lyricist used "driving in her limo car" and followed up with the next verse ending in "dream". Certainly "driving her limousine" would have paired better with "dream", rhyme wise.
	11:52am Acid Cazh: Back after the meeting! Sad to have missed so much of Trouble's show, but I'm here for the end.
	11:52am bk845: I should write a sternly worded letter to this Kano fellow.
	11:52am Delicate Chester: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Was anyone else doing The Robot to this in their bedroom? Just me?
	11:52am love2laf: Has Key Wilde done a taco / tortilla themed song with or without a lemon car for Double Dip yet? This is a hit song for the plucking
	11:52am Karl: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:51 You are truly doing the Lord’s work
	11:53am Zip7: ↳ Song: "mais dis-donc" by "toite sandja" Love that guitar. Jimmy Nolan would be proud!
	11:53am Robm: ↳ love2laf @11:52 hey love2laf better late then never
	11:53am Ben from Newark: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:52 Same here! Had a work meeting from 10:30 to 11:30, so had to unfortunately step away. I need to tell my boss I have therapy Thursday mornings, and not to schedule meetings then
	11:53am Crownless Gander: ↳ Delicate Chester @11:52 Me! We are the robots.
	11:54am TDK60: Merci, Mme Trouble.
	11:54am Robm: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:53 good luck with that
	11:54am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble.
	11:54am northguineahills: thanks, trouble!
	11:55am love2laf: ↳ Robm @11:53 I've been listening for a few hours, just not chatty. Thursday morning Therapy for all :)
	11:55am Triple G: Thanks Trouble!
	11:56am Robm: your the best trouble @Love2laf same way at times with me, just want to hear the tunage
	11:56am Trouble: thanks for sitting in, that went quickly today! joe bataan in JC at white eagle hall this saturday! see him now if you haven't!!!
	11:56am Sera from Rockaway: Trouble, don't go!
	11:56am prof.fuzz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:51 send me a copy, will ya will?
	11:56am Zip7: ↳ love2laf @11:55 > Thursday morning Therapy for all :) True that! Thanks, Trouble and krewe!
	11:56am Trouble: pseu's here and she has a cute puppy with her!
	11:57am Chris Hiatt: Great show as always. Thanks, DJ Trouble!
	11:57am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Trouble, I stayed home sick... feeling a bit better already, caught some healing vibes catching the whole show today.. be well everyone
	11:58am Delicate Chester: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:53 🤖🙌🤖
	11:58am prof.fuzz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:57 feel better soon!
	11:58am still b/p: ↳ Song: "give me tonight" by "shannon" Robot mention prompts sharing of a quote scorning AI generated versions of artists/performers, on the occasion of AI-produced George Carlin material. One impressionist says it's like "watching a Roomba carry a football 50 yards. There’s no link to an actual living person whose creative energies we recognize and admire."
	11:58am Robm: ↳ Zip7 @11:56 Zip7 i consider WFMU therapy when the rest of the world is going to hell, and is keeping us sane
	11:59am ?: Just stumbled across FMU after spending my first 18 yrs of life in JC, and most of the rest in NYC. WOW !! Where have you been ? Trouble - the Gorecki was a most amazing set from an amazing show. I just became a life-long listener. Kudos
	11:59am Crownless Gander: First time in a long while I've had time to listen to the whole show, and boy was it worth it! Ready for whatever the afternoon brings now, thanks, Trouble!
	11:59am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:58 thanks prof.fuzz
	12:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Welcome to your new forever home, @?!

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

	9:35am sphere: Hard to believe, really.
	9:35am Charles in Chicago: I used to live in Princeton, have spent so many hours and probably thousands of $ at PRX over the decades! I am getting a little nostalgic now... don't know if I'll ever be back there.

	9:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:36 I was really confused.
	9:38am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... I wanted to say that Beth Gibbons of Portishead did a pretty good version of this. It doesn't surpass the Upshaw but it's surprisingly good.
	9:38am northguineahills: I can see liberty state park right now out the window! looks out the window ok, if it wasn't misting right now, I could see it....
	9:38am sphere: Dunno if I have Zuckerzeit. Cluster 71 is awesome-sauce, though.
	9:39am northguineahills: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @9:38 wow, i need to find that!
	9:39am northguineahills: ↳ sphere @9:38 I have zuckerzeit (but my recs are still in fl)
	9:39am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @9:38 "After the Heat" is very good too
	9:41am Acid Cazh: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:37 So was I, apparently 🤣
	9:41am Ben from Newark: Paul Fireman made his fortune from Reebok. So he draws the ire of both Trouble and Bucci...
	9:42am Acid Cazh: No one gets that kind of money without exploiting a veritable multitude of honest workers. Anyone that rich is morally bankrupt by default.
	9:43am TDK60: Public park turning to private? I now decree no such mischief shall transpire. Period.
	9:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:42 Speaking of morally bankrupt, I have to go to the bank. Back in half a mo.
	9:43am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:42 truth
	9:43am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Hopefully more WFMU listeners will get involved in what’s happening in JC.
	9:43am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 I coudn't find it on bandcamp but DID find a "reimagining" of it by of all people, Colin Stetson. Scary.
	9:45am knickerbocker: Small world coffee was amazing! I still miss me some cheesesteak hoagies. Ah the days.
	9:45am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" Fahey! (and i don't have this album!)
	9:45am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:36 Web says both Hoagie Haven and Small World Coffee are still in operation. It's been at least 20 years for me.
	9:46am Trouble: @knickerbocker: YES! weird... but still kickin
	9:46am Dances with Moomins: I had the screen blacked out....and then thought: this is John Fahey! ( and I don't have this album ) saw him once at the Bottom Line
	9:47am Trouble: @charles in chicago: legend has it that the couple who opened the BEST ice cream shop evah ( bent spoon) met while working at small world coffee
	9:47am Pete from Hoboken: Ugh. Anyone else fatigued by all the “development” going on in J.C. and Hoboken? I agree it’s an amazing oasis in the area and should be left alone. To be honest, I don’t want to see one more plan with a goshdarn pickleball court. Just leave it be, not everything needs to be improved, if there is space, kids figure out what to do with it.
	9:47am Regina J: It’s awful: one of the worst things to come out of this is the false narrative pushed by Fireman that the folks who are trying to preserve the park don’t care about the needs of lower-income residents. When I attended a presentation by the EPA, there were a bunch of young people there who were shouting things like “you care more about birds and fish than you do about kids!” Someone there tried to convince me that Fireman wasn’t trying to make a buck off the privatization, because he (and I quote) “does things for the community under the table all the time. You’re all just hating on him because he’s a successful businessman.” Ummmm, sure.
	9:47am Trouble: merci@ scott mcdowell!
	9:48am bobdoesthings: Because of John Fahey I imposed a rule on one of my guitars that it may never be put in standard tuning, has to be an alternate tuning. Not that Fahey didn't play in standard but.. some of his open chord tunings inspired the decision
	9:49am Toothgrinder Tom: I should be listening to more John Fahey.
	9:49am bk845: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @9:49 Start with Sunflower River Blues, that's his most important work.
	9:49am StringOFperils: Fahey. A champion of the really cheap guitar. Wire and wood and imagination.
	9:49am Acid Cazh: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:48 As I type this I have three guitars hanging on the wall and one in a case on the floor. Four different tunings, none of them standard.
	9:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Did I miss something re privatization of LSP? Seems like that never goes away completely.
	9:50am Toothgrinder Tom: Thanks @BK847, I will!
	9:51am knickerbocker: @trouble Long time listener, first time commenter. Your show is tops, trouble! Many many years of gratitude.
	9:51am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Acid Cazh @9:49 Acid Cazh and bobdoesthings. What alternate tunings are you using?
	9:52am Trouble: super thanks to you, for tuning in... @knickerbocker!
	9:52am bobdoesthings: @peter - D minor is new favorite DADFAD, C and G open are fun for fahey stuff.. heres a link of Fahey's tunings for his songs = www.johnfahey.com...
	9:53am Dances with Moomins: ↳ Toothgrinder Tom @9:49 Death Chants, Breakdowns, & Military Waltzes was my Fahey introduction.
	9:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "III Lento - cantabile-semplice" by "Henryk Góreck... was outside when you played the Górecki. one of the great parts for string basses--the opening you mentioned. it's so subtle and complex. it makes me wish i still played.
	9:53am Trouble: @toothgrinder Tom: it will not go away until the NJ senate passes the protect liberty state park act. meanwhile the evil doer billionaire chips away at the park by creating a false story of the park advocates not caring about children.
	9:54am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 that D minor tuning was favored by Skip James
	9:54am cherry98: wow, thank you so much for this fahey.
	9:55am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ Trouble @9:53 "I'm not doing this to make a profit." Said no billionaire ever.
	9:56am Handy Haversack: Neither Joe Bataan nor Robyn Hitchcock is sold out at White Eagle Hall, so it's clear JC still has some work to do on its priorities.
	9:56am Handy Haversack: "Fare Forward, Voyageurs!" is how I say goodbye to the Continental Subway riders every week! It's from Eliot.
	9:57am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 bobdoesthings, thanks for the link. I've periodically messed about with open tunings, but I'm far from being conversant.
	9:57am Acid Cazh: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @9:51 First single for my old band had the G tuned up to G#, but I haven't used that tuning in a long time. Right now I've got: #1: Standard but B string is tuned up to C #2: Standard but high E string is tuned down to D #3: Standard but low E string is tuned down to D #4: Both #1 and #2 at the same time So... nothing very exotic at the moment (except maybe #4), always just one or two strings off. For awhile I had my "fuck-around-with guitar" tuned entirely down a full step, plus #2 above ... but that guitar (which was a gift to me from a stranger I met in a bar the day before he was moving to Canada to live with his park ranger girlfriend, not even kidding) is an old Seagull with some truss rod issues and a hole in the face of it and it just can't hold tuning or intonation, so I'm trying to think of creative ways to dispose of it.
	9:57am Andres: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:56 Where is the nearest teleport station and I’m there.
	9:58am bobdoesthings: @peter from saranac - I think that's the reason I like alternate tunings. it forces me to be creative and experimental - can't use my regular voicings , hands gotta dance in different ways
	9:59am ranjit: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" I grew up listening to my parents' Fahey christmas music album, so this piece keeps suggesting "joy to the world" to me
	9:59am bobdoesthings: Sonic Youth - also very fun with the alternate tunings
	9:59am rx "rexy" scabin: There are guitarists, and then there is John Fahey.
	9:59am cherry98: wow, thank you so much for this fahey.
	9:59am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:54 I mostly go between DADFAD, DADGAD, and standard.
	10:00am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:59 (and I should pick up the guitar more often, it's sitting in the corner looking neglected)
	10:00am Acid Cazh: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:59 I've never tried DADFAD, I'm going to have to give it a whirl!
	10:01am cherry1998: fahey is that b*th, there has to be onle one. (affectionate). some of the most ornate guitar artistry ever
	10:01am Handy Haversack: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:00 Remember when golf ties were the new DADFAD?
	10:01am bobdoesthings: @acid cazh - F to Fsharp and its major. - That flatted third is where it's at though. :p
	10:01am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Acid Cazh @10:00 If you've never listened to Skip James check him out. Actually Fahey did a great version of James' "Special Rider Blues", it's interesting to compare the two versions.
	10:01am sphere: Don't forget Lou Reed's legendary Ostrich tuning: every string tuned to D
	10:02am Chris Hiatt: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:59 Yep! Also, Joni Mitchell, I think?
	10:02am Andres: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:01 Khakis endure.
	10:02am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:01 (And for bonus points listen to Fred Frith's recording of the same tune, it sounds like he's covering Fahey covering James)
	10:02am sphere: Skip James is absolutely harrowing on Hard Time Killing Floor Blues. A must listen.
	10:02am Hi from Holland: ↳ Song: "Fare Forward Voyagers" by "john fahey" Hillbillies untie!
	10:03am cherry1998: 'ostrich tuning' damn
	10:03am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bobdoesthings @10:01 It's easier to bring the minor third up to a major when you want than it is to try to drop it (if tuned to a maj3)
	10:04am Firepitmama: This Fahey accompanied me from Mountain Lakes to Pompton Lakes on my foggy ride home. And now sitting in my driveway listening to the rest. Just beautiful! Thanks, Trouble.💙
	10:04am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:02 Yes!
	10:04am Ben from Newark: ↳ bobdoesthings @9:52 Thanks! Based on this, I see the Blind Joe Death material is mostly in standard tuning. Makes sense, as it's traditionals and original compositions which are an homage to this. But once he moves over to alternate tunings, it's like the whole universe opens up
	10:04am Dan near StL: Saw Fahey at small venue, Schuba’s in Chicago late in his life. Played a Strat, he asked small crowd, “Anyone have a chunk of metal I can borrow?” I handed him my Leatherman mini multi tool, and he proceeded to play some other worldly soaring slide guitar. No, he did give it back, and thanked me. What a night.
	10:05am rx "rexy" scabin: @sphere also "God moves on the Water" by W. Johnson.
	10:05am cherry1998: amazing
	10:07am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Chris Hiatt @10:02 Joni Mitchell, incredible guitarist with all kinds of different tunings. And if we're talking alt. tuning I just have to mention Glen Jones and his "partial capos".
	10:07am Handy Haversack: Yeah, sometimes Eliot could really bring it.
	10:10am TDK60: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:07 Hello Chi-Charles. I read that S.Y. was interested in Joni's tunings.
	10:10am sphere: I saw Fahey at an '90s NC festival that was almost all laptop music. All that digital sound was hard on the ears, and when Fahey took the stage he mercilessly mocked the rest of the festival for that all-digital sound.
	10:11am WoodsOfMaine: Does Leo Kottke use alternate tunings? I've seen a lot of guitar player and think "I see what he's doing...but doubt I could do it." With Kottke, I honestly can't figure out what he's doing.
	10:11am Acid Cazh: Just made a note to self: --------------- Charles in Chicago says Listen to: - Skip James - Fahey playing Skip James's "Special Rider Blues" and compare the two - Fred Frith's "Special Rider Blues" while we're at it ....and now I have to mute the radio for a video meeting with our head office overseas. Wheeeeeeeeeeeeee
	10:12am Charles in Chicago: ↳ TDK60 @10:10 they did have a song called "Hey Joni"
	10:12am sphere: And I do remember Fahey playing the hell out of Hard Time Killing Floor Blues at a venue in Austin--he was opening for NNCK I believe.
	10:12am Dan near StL: His, “Hear The Wind Howl”, just astonishing, one of his best vocals too.
	10:13am still b/p: ↳ Song: "memory band" by "minnie riperton" This is veryyyy nice.
	10:13am sphere: While we are talking fingerstyle guitar, please DO NOT forget Blind Willie Johnson's Dark Was The Night Cold Was The Ground. A copy of that is heading out to interstellar space on the Voyager Golden Record.
	10:14am PKNY: ↳ Song: "memory band" by "minnie riperton" Charles Stepney was a genius
	10:14am StringOFperils: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:11 Yes, especially when he employs 'bottleneck' slide > www.guitarmusic.org...
	10:15am Ben from Newark: ↳ WoodsOfMaine @10:11 Yeah, he uses some alternate tunings. I learned how to play his arrangement of "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring", and it's in Open F Sharp (C♯-F♯-C♯-F♯-A♯-C♯).
	10:16am WoodsOfMaine: ↳ StringOFperils @10:14 Thanks! @BenfromNewark too.
	10:17am Handy Haversack: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:12 It's 1969 ...
	10:17am Philip: dig this.
	10:18am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ bobdoesthings @10:01 Fascinating discussion. Thank you.
	10:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:13 Not to be pedantic but it's fair to say Voyager 1 has reached interstellar space, about 15 billion miles from home! In fact we just lost contact with it in Dec. "Dark was the night", indeed!
	10:18am tom tom the pipers son: good morning.... missed some groovy stuff...shucks...
	10:18am bobdoesthings: I am swamped with work right now.. and urgent deadlines.. but... must ... resist .. urge to... play with alternate tunings... ok let me just.. just for a minute..
	10:20am traven: ↳ sphere @10:13 Pity that Led Zeppelin stole one of his songs.
	10:21am sphere: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:18 But Charles, when does interstellar space end? It's still going. :)
	10:22am StringOFperils: ↳ sphere @10:21 When/if it's drawn inside the heliosphere of another star
	10:22am Charles in Chicago: ↳ sphere @10:21 After Interstellar Space comes Cosmic Music
	10:24am Handy Haversack: ↳ sphere @10:21 We can call the occupants and ask, but the long-distance charges are pretty rough.
	10:24am sphere: ↳ StringOFperils @10:22 And the Voyager Golden Record is definitely "out" for sure!
	10:24am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @10:22 and after that, Infinity ... and nothing more
	10:25am Philip: so chill
	10:25am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:24 "Come in, tardigrades. Do you copy?"
	10:26am Trouble: great show last sunday @ ben from newark! you blew up the comments page!!

	10:39am Philip: oh alright now
	10:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "too much tenderness" by "stark reality" I missed this and had to go back, given the commentary. So bad it's almost kind of good! Those out of tune vocals over the smooth groove.
	10:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): so much colleen-adjacent stuff today i'm gonna have to go listen to A flame my love, a frequency at some point later on.
	10:46am Yes: ↳ Song: "the sun swirls with you" by "arushi jain" nice title

	10:54am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:52 Never get off the boat!

Going to have to send my valuables to a friend and shelter it for a while. All because of the Colorado dept of revenue's clerical error which cost me my livelihood. Soaking up as much WFMU love while I still have internet 💜
	11:08am Son Of Pantz: Oh how hard I practiced trying to do that Zoom thing with your arms. To no avail.
	11:08am unpopularfred: I would so proud when my sister moved to 02134 (I eventually moved there ten years later)
	11:11am Edgar from Maine: I had a cartoon I made featured on Zoom in 1977!
	11:11am βrian: And think of the cost of all the ice cream left at the checkout by frustrated customers.
	11:12am rsj: try the coop on a weekend
	11:12am βrian: Conversation opener: "Is that a check you're writing?"
	11:13am northguineahills: I saw a checkout in cohoes, ny at a co-opt where they had a 'social checkout' lineup two three weeks ago.

	11:18am Robm: @NGH congratulations on getting your digs in february @Dan S i think trouble wants to protect the guilty

	11:40am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "let's all make a bomb" by "heaven 17" Oh man, thought I recognized that chord progression!
	11:40am Lucky: The set is so great, that I feel great.
	11:40am common: ↳ Song: "let's all make a bomb" by "heaven 17" good 'un!
	11:40am briania: Dancin' thru that Shannon transition!
	11:41am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:24 was this for me? i'm kind of blown away that he's through college. we have a lot of students in our department who do a joint degree in literature and library science. seems like a good way to cover bases and get a lot of great coursework.
	11:41am prof.fuzz: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:36 kinda damp today from a few days of rain. i'm reading discussion board posts written by my students, waiting on the ups guy to deliver a new skateboard to me.
	11:42am Trouble: @ listener bryan, no there is another listerner who is brian and a librarian who asked after dj icepack...
	11:42am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ βrian @11:20 Ah! I see it's for a different βrian who also knows DJ Icepack!
	11:43am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Trouble @11:42 I saw that. I search for "Brian" to see where the question came from and missed it because of the funky B on βrian. :)
	11:44am βrian: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:43 I'm still in beta, so to speak.
	11:44am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Brian and Bryan are of course different names and βrian is something else altogether I suppose. Lots of Bry/ians and Profs up in the mix today hee hee.
	11:45am Mister Dobalina: Much prefer the SMH instead. But we have no choice.
	11:45am briania: Gettin Brianish in here
	11:45am Ben from Newark: ↳ Trouble @10:26 Thank you so much Trouble! :)
	11:46am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ben from Newark @11:45 Wait, what the hell? Are we already to thank yous? How did that happen? Too fast!
	11:47am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ briania @11:45 high five emojis all around
	11:49am Karl: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Are the backup singers singing “tortilla”? I hope so.
	11:49am Sera from Rockaway: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Did he say musky?
	11:49am love2laf: Thank you Trouble, and big congrats to your son! Cheers everyone, holding onto hydro by a thread, multiple outages this morning, but more on than off. Yay?
	11:49am Ben from Newark: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:46 This is a delayed reply to Trouble's nice words about my Radio Row (I had to step away for an hour and missed it). Thanks for all of your kind words on Sunday as well!
	11:49am prof.fuzz: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:44 guilty (of the professor part) as charged, and though my name isn't bryan/brian, my band plays in bryan tx a few times per year.
	11:50am prof.fuzz: ↳ Karl @11:49 all of our b/u singers sing "taco"
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ prof.fuzz @11:49 And I'm happiest when wrapped in fuzzy bass lines so there we are.
	11:51am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" I thought he said "ridin' in her lemon car" and I was imagining a Richard Scarry situation.
	11:51am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:50 I have a song with my friend that we sing taco in the bg
	11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Ben from Newark @11:49 It was great, Ben. I really enjoyed it.
	11:51am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" I'd say there's some Kraftwerk influence in this tune.
	11:51am bk845: I personally am offended that the lyricist used "driving in her limo car" and followed up with the next verse ending in "dream". Certainly "driving her limousine" would have paired better with "dream", rhyme wise.
	11:52am Acid Cazh: Back after the meeting! Sad to have missed so much of Trouble's show, but I'm here for the end.
	11:52am bk845: I should write a sternly worded letter to this Kano fellow.
	11:52am Delicate Chester: ↳ Song: "she's star" by "kano" Was anyone else doing The Robot to this in their bedroom? Just me?
	11:52am love2laf: Has Key Wilde done a taco / tortilla themed song with or without a lemon car for Double Dip yet? This is a hit song for the plucking
	11:52am Karl: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:51 You are truly doing the Lord’s work
	11:53am Zip7: ↳ Song: "mais dis-donc" by "toite sandja" Love that guitar. Jimmy Nolan would be proud!
	11:53am Robm: ↳ love2laf @11:52 hey love2laf better late then never
	11:53am Ben from Newark: ↳ Acid Cazh @11:52 Same here! Had a work meeting from 10:30 to 11:30, so had to unfortunately step away. I need to tell my boss I have therapy Thursday mornings, and not to schedule meetings then
	11:53am Crownless Gander: ↳ Delicate Chester @11:52 Me! We are the robots.
	11:54am TDK60: Merci, Mme Trouble.
	11:54am Robm: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:53 good luck with that
	11:54am bradford: Thanks as always, Trouble.
	11:54am northguineahills: thanks, trouble!
	11:55am love2laf: ↳ Robm @11:53 I've been listening for a few hours, just not chatty. Thursday morning Therapy for all :)

	11:56am Trouble: thanks for sitting in, that went quickly today! joe bataan in JC at white eagle hall this saturday! see him now if you haven't!!!
	11:56am Sera from Rockaway: Trouble, don't go!
	11:56am prof.fuzz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:51 send me a copy, will ya will?
	11:56am Zip7: ↳ love2laf @11:55 > Thursday morning Therapy for all :) True that! Thanks, Trouble and krewe!
	11:56am Trouble: pseu's here and she has a cute puppy with her!

	11:57am Will thee Sound Guy: Thank you Trouble, I stayed home sick... feeling a bit better already, caught some healing vibes catching the whole show today.. be well everyone
	11:58am Delicate Chester: ↳ Crownless Gander @11:53 🤖🙌🤖
	11:58am prof.fuzz: ↳ Will thee Sound Guy @11:57 feel better soon!
	11:58am still b/p: ↳ Song: "give me tonight" by "shannon" Robot mention prompts sharing of a quote scorning AI generated versions of artists/performers, on the occasion of AI-produced George Carlin material. One impressionist says it's like "watching a Roomba carry a football 50 yards. There’s no link to an actual living person whose creative energies we recognize and admire."
	11:58am Robm: ↳ Zip7 @11:56 Zip7 i consider WFMU therapy when the rest of the world is going to hell, and is keeping us sane
	11:59am ?: Just stumbled across FMU after spending my first 18 yrs of life in JC, and most of the rest in NYC. WOW !! Where have you been ? Trouble - the Gorecki was a most amazing set from an amazing show. I just became a life-long listener. Kudos
	11:59am Crownless Gander: First time in a long while I've had time to listen to the whole show, and boy was it worth it! Ready for whatever the afternoon brings now, thanks, Trouble!
	11:59am Will thee Sound Guy: ↳ prof.fuzz @11:58 thanks prof.fuzz
	12:00pm Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Trouble. Welcome to your new forever home, @?!
