Busy doing work while listening to your stream. We were out the other week in Weehawken trying to make some photos. Today indoors so it's easier to listen.

adios, departing bdn-ers.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:48pm pacific standard simon:

I'm half convinced that "Titanic Overture" is nothing more than Frank Zappa screwing around on the organ, a la his organ solo on "Little House I Used To Live In".
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:50pm Charlie:

very possible. it also sounds to me like "going out of my head"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:51pm pacific standard simon:

That too, yes!
Avatar 1:51pm βrian:

Hey, that's a voice!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:53pm Charlie:

He could be heard in the rafters.

Stay out of the rafters; that's where Boris the spider lives.
