	3:09am Roberto: Ceci n'est pas un stiletto. Ah...yes, that's better.

	🦇 3:09am Julie: Bonjour, Roberto
	🦇 3:10am Julie: Very nice BGZ, you couldn't tell me this when I was digging out cd's? :)
	3:15am Roberto: This reminds me of that episode where Alex and Elaine tour Europe.
	3:15am BadGuyZero: I can call and hold my phone up to a speaker and play a track or two for you. It's also on Spotify [NOTE: Spotify version does not feature me singing along].
	🦇 3:18am Julie: yes I just checked spotify. Score! but not any time soon
	3:20am Roberto: We were led to believe they hooked up at the end, but it was never spoken of again.
	🦇 3:21am Julie: Hugo and Kim?
	3:22am Roberto: Alex and Elaine.
	🦇 3:24am Julie: Yes!I thought I was the only one who remembered Vienna on Taxi. I think they were on a plane.
	3:40am Marmalade kitty: nice stuff by Juliana!
	3:49am BadGuyZero: I love Keren Ann! I saw her in Austin with Dean & Britta five years ago.
	🦇 3:51am Julie: That must've been a nice show.
	3:52am BadGuyZero: It was!
	3:52am Marmalade kitty: yup, Boy George covered this track :)
	🦇 3:53am Julie: haha..really? I'll have to check it out, it's an old Bread song
	4:04am I X Key!: LMAO The universe is funny!
	4:07am Meghan.: But I could totally see you do that! Ha!
	4:07am BadGuyZero: My dad was a big Billy Joel fan when I was a kid. Listening to old Billy Joel songs makes me think about riding around in the car with my parents. One of my first concerts was a Billy Joel show.
	4:09am Meghan.: I was excited he did a song about Allentown when I lived there. But I was young and didn't know better
	4:09am Marmalade kitty: billy joel! good to get him off your chest once in a while! :)
	🦇 4:10am Julie: Meghan that's why it was a GOOD april fool's joke, something I would totally do
	4:11am Marmalade kitty: I really like 'for the longest time by BJ
	4:12am Marmalade kitty: shame on me..
	🦇 4:15am Julie: awww his songs are very singable for sure. Innocent Man really grew on me after hating it at first, kind of like Kate's The Dreaming.
	4:18am Marmalade kitty: who's the guy who sang " lady in red"? ..an admission of liking that would be 100x worse
	🦇 4:19am Julie: oh wow...that song was everywhere...OMG
	4:20am Marmalade kitty: I soon learned to, hate hate hate :)
	🦇 4:20am Julie: ah so Take Three Girls (the pentangle song) was a BBC tv show in the late 60s early 70s
	🦇 4:21am Julie: I think it was actually bigger over there than it was here. Like it was huge before we ever heard it over here
	4:23am Marmalade kitty: ear bleach :\
	4:23am Meghan.: Simply Red right?
	🦇 4:25am Julie: No it wasn't simply red, it was some solo artist
	4:26am Meghan.: For Lady in Red? Not the other.... Is the Austra cd yours or the stations?
	4:27am Marmalade kitty: did dDeburgh inspire Clapton or was it the other way round..? "the way you look tonight..etc
	🦇 4:27am Julie: Meghan -- The rep sent me that since I'm always contacting him about the band. I don't think we have it yet. Lady in Red was Chris Deburgh
	4:28am BadGuyZero: Chris DeBurgh
	🦇 4:28am Julie: Forget the rick roll, how about a deburgh roll
	4:30am BadGuyZero: Chris DeBurgh's previous hit - "Don't Pay The Ferryman" - featured a video that was really cool to 13-year-old moi. Not it makes me laugh.
	4:31am BadGuyZero: I can imagine saying "I've been DeBurrrrrrrrrrrrrghed" in a John Houseman-like voice.
	4:31am Meghan.: Oh yes..... What shorty song did Simply Red do. I was hating them for the other... Ha. Ok you need to send me that Austra cd. I will pop up that MBV one for you
	4:32am pete: You know supposedly he wrote that song for his wife.. and then cheated on her with the babysitter. Ick!
	🦇 4:32am Julie: Sorry Meghan, they only gave me the one song.
	4:34am Marmalade kitty: you look wonderful tonight! Clapton :)
	4:35am BadGuyZero: I wish there was a song about monkeys in Bye Bye Birdie so Meghan would play it today.
	🦇 4:37am Julie: bye bye monkey
	4:40am Meghan.: Holding back the years was simply red.
	4:41am Meghan.: And wow Pete.... Didn't know that. That is just super creepy
	4:41am BadGuyZero: Does Simply Red have its own subreddit? Simply Reddit?
	4:45am sweet cheri: hi julie g'morning and welcome back.

	4:48am Meghan.: Wow I can't believe you are playing this! I used to see Opium Den up at a coffee house in Nashua NH!

	4:51am Meghan.: Haunting and great. How did you find them. I was just thinking I should send you them!
	4:52am BadGuyZero: Woohoo...Love & Rockets!
	🦇 4:52am Julie: probably some music magazine or some goth magazine back in the day. Bought tons of music in the 90s, but never went anywhere
	🦇 4:53am Julie: BTW the artwork in the Love & Rockets comic books is fabulous :)
	4:55am Meghan.: It was senior year in high school. I remember people drinking a lot of Jolt, the first time I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit on the radio in the middle of the night (before it became huge), I can actually SEE the drive up there in my head!
	5:07am Meghan.: It's on a Wednesday?
	🦇 5:09am Julie: Yep, they're doing DJ sets after but I doubt I'll stay for that
	5:12am sweet cheri: julie, who do you think will win the "power pop showdown" on evan's show next week? efd or clay? i'm on evans side..
	5:12am BadGuyZero: Looking through a record dealer's inventory on Discogs. a Simply Red "Holding Back the Years" 7-inch just jumped out at me. :shiver:
	🦇 5:16am Julie: BGZ I remember enjoying it at the time, then, as happens, it was overplayed. But hearing it now, I might enjoy it again.
	5:18am sweet cheri: you don't want to share your thoughts with us, julie?
	5:19am Meghan.: Julie, let me see. All of a sudden job offerings have been dumped on me and I am waiting to see what happens. I could possibly be working 2 jobs for a bit.... Not sure.
	🦇 5:20am Julie: oooh jobs
	5:23am sweet cheri: well i'm out,, see you all soon.. have a great week julie & meghan,,
	5:25am I X Key!: ! I!ve been loving the show today @Julie (o:

	5:43am I X Key!: How about Dean Dan Dance memories? I remember listening to Dead Can Dance at myu grandparents's house, & when I was growing up I especially remember looking out the window at this fir tree all the time listening to them, & for some reason I especially remember listening to them pulling out of a parking lot across from a grocery store... & ni college I played "Saltarello" for a professor --...-- When I was wee, my friend's parents Billy Joel concerted, & so I've always remembered about that & how about combined DCD/BJ memories?
