	9:59pm Marmalade kitty: tuned indeed! goodnight frowskateers!
	♥ 10:07pm pfcidb: 1. *dot wiggin band 2. ahhhh that is the new bobby matador's new shit! nice, i liked it.

	10:23pm Holly in NC: OK, really driving home now. Meantime, go Canada: www.youtube.com...
	10:35pm EzSezz: Anybody remember when Pete Seeger's banjo was stolen and then the thief returned it?
	10:36pm Marmalade kitty: Thanks for the pete seeger set!
	♥ 10:38pm jj.: yay! glad you appreciated it! was worried it was too corny for WFMU. but, hell, we probably wouldn't be here without pete.
	10:43pm Marmalade kitty: I'm only learning of Petes body of work since his passing..respect.
	10:45pm Marmalade kitty: Pete Big heart! :)
	10:49pm P-90: @jj: Lotsa FMU Dj's did Pete tributes this week, no one thought it was too corny. You're right about none of this being here - not in quite the same form anyway - without him. Interested to hear how important he was to you when you were a lad. Excelsior!
	10:59pm koto: it was first time to me listening Pete Seeger. but it didn't sound corny at all. i did very quick study about him and i could imagine how he influenced people. i also respect him.
	11:00pm KP: Jesse! Good to see you
	♥ 11:00pm Santos L Halper: Not waiting for the closing bell...enjoying the show NOW
	11:04pm koto: please play the show little more longeeeer!
	11:05pm Holly in NC: When poorly educated, scared, sick, hopeless flag-waving nitwits are all about "Amurica" - I weep, as in my world, Pete S.speaks for that America, and I cannot parse how things have gone so wrong.
	11:08pm Droll: The electronic birdsong is beautiful.
	11:10pm P-90: @Droll: roger that. " Live at Roulette" is way cool
	♥ 11:12pm jj.: "live at roulette" is way cool, but there it was never quite playing by itself, always with stuff mixed on top of it. recommended: noveller.bandcamp.com...
	♥ 11:13pm Santos L Halper: Grayfolded vinyl, eh?
	♥ 11:14pm jj.: yup! out in april. on temporary loan from the label.
	♥ 11:15pm pfcidb: oh man i haven't listened to grayfolded in forever
	♥ 11:17pm Santos L Halper: Seems like the kind of thing that would benefit from the CDs extended time, but maybe it divides up nicely...
	11:20pm P-90: jj: thanks for clarifying!
	11:23pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Still snowing.
	11:23pm Droll: I also think it's odd to be anachronistic about LP -- it had a maximum running time, but you always got a second side with the same running time for free...
	11:25pm nate: haven't heard this in forever, not really something I would want to have to keep flipping over though...
	♥ 11:25pm jj.: for the record, we're back into ranaldo & noveller here...
	11:29pm P-90: @Drool: Ha! that's one way of looking at it. It gave musicians a standard "frame" or format of 22 mins, a distinct "break" or intermission, and another 22. So they thought in terms of how to fit that format. Sometimes a "limitation" like that is actually liberating. In the Cage/Eno sense of having an arbitrary rule imposed that you have to work with giving you focus. I miss the age of vinyl LPs for a few reasons
	11:30pm P-90: jj: thnx for update
	11:31pm Holly in NC: @Santos L Halper - whenever I see your avatar I grin wildly - thank you.
	11:32pm P-90: As soon as those little guitar squiggles turn up in the J. Oswald, it reminds me of a Dead "Space" set
	♥ 11:34pm Santos L Halper: That's the best way to grin holly : ) P-90: there's a reason for that... and agreed about rules being useful, along w/the occasional oblique strategy
	11:36pm P-90: Yeah, I caught that, right after I posted, the "resemblance" became more explicit
	11:36pm KP: They're playing my song
	11:36pm Holly in NC: " @drool" = major belly laugh here. @droll, I hope you also thought funny!
	11:37pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): There is an unhung, framed Lee Ranaldo poem staring me in the face here in the dining room. it is apparently incumbent on me to hang it.
	11:41pm Droll: P90, The 23 minute limit is both cause and effect. Eno's Oblique Strategies is a way more interesting framework!
	11:47pm P-90: @Droooll: Just thinking the "one or more disks of 22/22" format meant that whatever anyone was doing, they were at least all confined to that same single constraint. A universal shape for everyone's version of the ritual, an enforced community, in that one respect. "We all liked THAT album, looking forward to hearing YOUR album, meanwhile here's MY album"
	11:54pm Droll: P-90, With streaming we've hit infinite length, which is the degenerate case of using up other people's time. On YT you've only got about 15 seconds to make an impression. Having said that, one of the best-selling albums of all time (Dark Side of the Moon) spends the first 25 seconds as a near silent thump-thump -- nothing happens.
	11:54pm P-90: Pete recap in the Coda, a must
	11:54pm KP: So long, Jesse!
	11:55pm KP: It's been good to hear you again
	♥ 11:56pm Santos L Halper: Drifting along into the night...thanks Jesse!
	11:56pm Droll: Thanks, JJ, for all the Pete (and other goodness).
	♥ 11:58pm Tome: Great set Jesse ,, peace !!
	11:58pm P-90: Sure, that was a statement itself at the time, DSOM's "long" heartbeat-only intro was a daring deconstruction of the whole way pop records were done, that kind of thing at the beginning is a head's-up that what comes after is gonna break some rules, wants to be listened to differently than the typical LP
	11:59pm P-90: Thanks, jj catch you next time, be good

	♥ 11:15pm pfcidb: oh man i haven't listened to grayfolded in forever
	♥ 11:17pm Santos L Halper: Seems like the kind of thing that would benefit from the CDs extended time, but maybe it divides up nicely...
	11:20pm P-90: jj: thanks for clarifying!
	11:23pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): Still snowing.
	11:23pm Droll: I also think it's odd to be anachronistic about LP -- it had a maximum running time, but you always got a second side with the same running time for free...
	11:25pm nate: haven't heard this in forever, not really something I would want to have to keep flipping over though...
	♥ 11:25pm jj.: for the record, we're back into ranaldo & noveller here...
	11:29pm P-90: @Drool: Ha! that's one way of looking at it. It gave musicians a standard "frame" or format of 22 mins, a distinct "break" or intermission, and another 22. So they thought in terms of how to fit that format. Sometimes a "limitation" like that is actually liberating. In the Cage/Eno sense of having an arbitrary rule imposed that you have to work with giving you focus. I miss the age of vinyl LPs for a few reasons
	11:30pm P-90: jj: thnx for update
	11:31pm Holly in NC: @Santos L Halper - whenever I see your avatar I grin wildly - thank you.
	11:32pm P-90: As soon as those little guitar squiggles turn up in the J. Oswald, it reminds me of a Dead "Space" set
	♥ 11:34pm Santos L Halper: That's the best way to grin holly : ) P-90: there's a reason for that... and agreed about rules being useful, along w/the occasional oblique strategy
	11:36pm P-90: Yeah, I caught that, right after I posted, the "resemblance" became more explicit
	11:36pm KP: They're playing my song
	11:36pm Holly in NC: " @drool" = major belly laugh here. @droll, I hope you also thought funny!
	11:37pm Pete from Boston (and NJ): There is an unhung, framed Lee Ranaldo poem staring me in the face here in the dining room. it is apparently incumbent on me to hang it.
	11:41pm Droll: P90, The 23 minute limit is both cause and effect. Eno's Oblique Strategies is a way more interesting framework!
	11:47pm P-90: @Droooll: Just thinking the "one or more disks of 22/22" format meant that whatever anyone was doing, they were at least all confined to that same single constraint. A universal shape for everyone's version of the ritual, an enforced community, in that one respect. "We all liked THAT album, looking forward to hearing YOUR album, meanwhile here's MY album"
	11:54pm Droll: P-90, With streaming we've hit infinite length, which is the degenerate case of using up other people's time. On YT you've only got about 15 seconds to make an impression. Having said that, one of the best-selling albums of all time (Dark Side of the Moon) spends the first 25 seconds as a near silent thump-thump -- nothing happens.
	11:54pm P-90: Pete recap in the Coda, a must
	11:54pm KP: So long, Jesse!
	11:55pm KP: It's been good to hear you again

	♥ 11:58pm Tome: Great set Jesse ,, peace !!
	11:58pm P-90: Sure, that was a statement itself at the time, DSOM's "long" heartbeat-only intro was a daring deconstruction of the whole way pop records were done, that kind of thing at the beginning is a head's-up that what comes after is gonna break some rules, wants to be listened to differently than the typical LP
