	10:31pm Funky16Corners: Yeah, it's about four minutes shorter than the album version
	10:41pm Funky16Corners: If you have any hallucinogens handy, ingest them now.
	10:43pm chresti: I already did
	10:43pm geezerette: Great record. :::D
	10:44pm Funky16Corners: Hey Chresti!
	10:44pm Funky16Corners: @Geezerette - Which one?
	10:46pm geezerette: "I Satisfy", Mouse and...
	10:46pm chresti: I came in around 13th floor elevators after dashing out to the coffee wagon Hi funky Larry! Great show!
	10:46pm Funky16Corners: Oh yeah!
	10:46pm Funky16Corners: Thanks Chresti!
	10:46pm Franco Twinkie: Late to the party again - shit! Elevators, Yeah! First time I went to San Francisco when I was 11 years old they were all over the AM radio along with Revolver which had just come out. IA Forever!
	10:47pm Funky16Corners: Hey Franco!
	10:48pm geezerette: or...ALL of them! Love that deep echo distortion, audio analøgue of blacklight.
	10:48pm Franco Twinkie: Larry! You got the goods, man!
	10:48pm Funky16Corners: This record in particular. DEEPLY psychedelic.
	10:50pm chresti: Oh man! This one's way out!
	10:50pm Funky16Corners: Yes, and it gets even way-out-ier!
	10:51pm Jeff Ash: We're not going to go insane, are we?
	10:52pm Funky16Corners: There's a distinct possibility!
	10:53pm rw: Hey.
	10:53pm Funky16Corners: Hey rw!
	10:55pm chresti: F16corners- Did red crayola go insane?
	10:55pm Funky16Corners: No, they turned into a weird art rock band and kept putting out records for decades.
	10:56pm Funky16Corners: As recently as 2016! www.discogs.com...
	10:57pm Jeff Ash: Your stream has been interrupted again. We're not getting The Golden Dawn. Some rando sax solo thing.
	10:57pm Franco Twinkie: My mom was ironing and I was sitting on the floor watching t.v. and The Elevators came on. I thought they were beatniks 'cause they were wearing shades and I thought Tommy Hall was playing bongos (not a jug) I don't think I had heard the word "Hippy" yet.
	10:58pm geezerette: I've slipped into the stream, hearing jazz... oh THERE you are.
	11:00pm Jeff Ash: Yep, good now.
	11:03pm Funky16Corners: That was weird. It looks good now
	11:05pm Funky16Corners: @Franco - It must have been something to witness the Elevators happening in real time
	11:05pm Funky16Corners: BTW - the recording I post tomorrow should be seamless, if you missed anything during the tech snafu
	11:08pm rw: I think Mayo Thompson (Red Crayola) teaches at Art Center in Pasadena.
	11:08pm Funky16Corners: That rings a bell
	11:09pm rw: Insane can be a subjective adjective.
	11:10pm chresti: No shit?!! We know a couple people that teach there
	11:11pm rw: I also like God Bless the Red Crayola and All Who Sail With It.
	11:11pm Franco Twinkie: Well its not like I saw them live, but on KFWB they would play The Supremes, then The Elevators, then Napoleon the 14th, then Frank Sinatra, then Love. It twisted my young head off. that's why I love WFMU!
	11:12pm Funky16Corners: WFMU is a good place to get your head twisted off, and back on again
	11:12pm chresti: I meant insane like the point of no return via hallucinagens
	11:13pm Franco Twinkie: Amen!
	11:13pm Funky16Corners: Applied with care, they should allow return, but not everyone was (or is) "careful"
	11:13pm chresti: in the 60s-70s
	11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Michael Pollen is leading the charge!
	11:16pm Funky16Corners: His name wasn't familiar. I just looked him up. Might have to pick up his book.
	11:17pm chresti: I would only micro dose on the few occasions lsd was served
	11:17pm Franco Twinkie: He just read in a church down the street from our old place. SRO!
	11:18pm chresti: Did you go Franco?
	11:19pm Funky16Corners: I haven't indulged in decades, but the ideas still fascinate me. I loved reading Terence McKenna and Leary's 'Politics of Ecstacy'
	11:20pm Franco Twinkie: No, I had practice. It was last Thursday.
	11:21pm chresti: I hear micro dosing is showing promise for depression
	11:21pm Funky16Corners: That was one of the original experimental uses
	11:22pm Franco Twinkie: I did see Terence Mckenna opening for Dr. Albert Hoffman at the Scottish Rites Temple.
	11:22pm Funky16Corners: That's a pretty heavy double bill!
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: I used to read a lot of Rupert Sheldrake back when I was into McKenna
	11:23pm chresti: at a heavy venue
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: Somehow I don't think that's what the Masons had in mind!
	11:24pm Franco Twinkie: I bought Hoffman's book at the event: LSD- My Problem Child.
	11:24pm Funky16Corners: I still have a copy somewhere
	11:26pm Funky16Corners: Wasn't the story that he accidentally dosed himself and discovered it while riding his bicycle home?
	11:28pm Franco Twinkie: Yes, He was trying to find a cure for head aches, Ha!
	11:28pm chresti: Ergot
	11:30pm rw: Must have been quite a ride.
	11:31pm Funky16Corners: I can think of a few things I'd want to be doing while tripping, and riding a bicycle is not one of them
	11:32pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti and I were at a party in Topanga Canyon and this guy shows up with a crumpled paper bag full of blotter, I put some in my pocket and forgot about it. However, some friends of ours did take it...I'll let her tell you what happened.
	11:32pm chresti: not only did his headache go away, he was awake for a couple days
	11:33pm Funky16Corners: I thought you were going to say you forgot about it, and then put your sweaty hand in your pocket and took an unexpected trip
	11:33pm rw: I ran out in front of a car once. Wasn't the smartest thing I've ever done. Bicycle ride doesn't sound too bad to me though depending on traffic.
	11:34pm chresti: driving is risky
	11:34pm Funky16Corners: One night my brothers and I tripped in my apartment by the beach. We decided to go out for a walk, and were convinced that a van was following us. We were terrified until we realized that he was looking for a parking space.
	11:34pm Funky16Corners: Good times!
	11:34pm Franco Twinkie: RW, I drove Angeles Crest while blazing.
	11:37pm chresti: Frranco,All I remember is later, one of the fliers was having a bummer over a certain TV actor...Bob Cummings?
	11:38pm Franco Twinkie: Love That Bob!
	11:39pm chresti: It definitely was a Bob
	11:39pm rw: Oh man. We're heading into scary territory here... I need to get some work done so I'll have to refrain from story-time! Larry, I'm bummed that I've only been able to catch bits and pieces of tonight's show. All sounding great. Thank you for another compelling and enjoyable radio program!
	11:40pm Franco Twinkie: Larry, walked by The Matrix recently - It's a fancy pants bar now.
	11:40pm chresti: From the golden age of Bobs on TV
	11:41pm chresti: Bye rw
	11:41pm Funky16Corners: Thanks rw! Smooth sailing to you this evening!
	11:42pm Doctorjazz: In and out tonight as well, catch up in the archives. Glad I got back for Townes, though!
	11:42pm chresti: I must take leave as well, before I run into Dodger traffic.
	11:43pm Funky16Corners: Nite Chresti!
	11:43pm chresti: Thank you Funky16corners!
	11:43pm Funky16Corners: My pleasure, as always!
	11:45pm Franco Twinkie: When MGM "cleaned house" in the '60's you could get the entire catalog at The Thrifty Drug Store - Mothers, Velvets, Animals, Ultimate Spinach -$1.98 each!
	11:46pm Funky16Corners: Oy, don't make me think about it, though I was 8 in 1970, and my head wouldn't have handled any of that music.
	11:49pm Funky16Corners: I hear stories like that about rare soul being picked up for pennies back in the day.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: Well, I was eight when The Beatles were on Ed Sullivan. I was confused about all the ruckus, but I came around PDQ.
	11:52pm Franco Twinkie: Larry, you have over compensated for what you think you might have missed. You're only eight once. No crime in been too young.
	11:52pm Funky16Corners: True that.
	11:56pm Jeff Ash: Thanks, Larry!
	11:57pm rw: Thanks F16C! Good night everyone!
	11:57pm Funky16Corners: Thank you Jeff!
	11:57pm Doctorjazz: Ahhh, catch you tomorrow, thanks!

	11:57pm Funky16Corners: Nite Doc!

	10:57pm Jeff Ash: Your stream has been interrupted again. We're not getting The Golden Dawn. Some rando sax solo thing.
	10:57pm Franco Twinkie: My mom was ironing and I was sitting on the floor watching t.v. and The Elevators came on. I thought they were beatniks 'cause they were wearing shades and I thought Tommy Hall was playing bongos (not a jug) I don't think I had heard the word "Hippy" yet.
	10:58pm geezerette: I've slipped into the stream, hearing jazz... oh THERE you are.

	11:05pm Funky16Corners: BTW - the recording I post tomorrow should be seamless, if you missed anything during the tech snafu
	11:08pm rw: I think Mayo Thompson (Red Crayola) teaches at Art Center in Pasadena.
	11:08pm Funky16Corners: That rings a bell
	11:09pm rw: Insane can be a subjective adjective.
	11:10pm chresti: No shit?!! We know a couple people that teach there
	11:11pm rw: I also like God Bless the Red Crayola and All Who Sail With It.

	11:12pm chresti: I meant insane like the point of no return via hallucinagens
	11:13pm Franco Twinkie: Amen!
	11:13pm Funky16Corners: Applied with care, they should allow return, but not everyone was (or is) "careful"
	11:13pm chresti: in the 60s-70s
	11:14pm Franco Twinkie: Michael Pollen is leading the charge!
	11:16pm Funky16Corners: His name wasn't familiar. I just looked him up. Might have to pick up his book.
	11:17pm chresti: I would only micro dose on the few occasions lsd was served
	11:17pm Franco Twinkie: He just read in a church down the street from our old place. SRO!
	11:18pm chresti: Did you go Franco?
	11:19pm Funky16Corners: I haven't indulged in decades, but the ideas still fascinate me. I loved reading Terence McKenna and Leary's 'Politics of Ecstacy'
	11:20pm Franco Twinkie: No, I had practice. It was last Thursday.
	11:21pm chresti: I hear micro dosing is showing promise for depression
	11:21pm Funky16Corners: That was one of the original experimental uses
	11:22pm Franco Twinkie: I did see Terence Mckenna opening for Dr. Albert Hoffman at the Scottish Rites Temple.
	11:22pm Funky16Corners: That's a pretty heavy double bill!
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: I used to read a lot of Rupert Sheldrake back when I was into McKenna
	11:23pm chresti: at a heavy venue
	11:23pm Funky16Corners: Somehow I don't think that's what the Masons had in mind!

	11:28pm Franco Twinkie: Yes, He was trying to find a cure for head aches, Ha!
	11:28pm chresti: Ergot
	11:30pm rw: Must have been quite a ride.
	11:31pm Funky16Corners: I can think of a few things I'd want to be doing while tripping, and riding a bicycle is not one of them
	11:32pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti and I were at a party in Topanga Canyon and this guy shows up with a crumpled paper bag full of blotter, I put some in my pocket and forgot about it. However, some friends of ours did take it...I'll let her tell you what happened.
	11:32pm chresti: not only did his headache go away, he was awake for a couple days
	11:33pm Funky16Corners: I thought you were going to say you forgot about it, and then put your sweaty hand in your pocket and took an unexpected trip

	11:34pm chresti: driving is risky
	11:34pm Funky16Corners: One night my brothers and I tripped in my apartment by the beach. We decided to go out for a walk, and were convinced that a van was following us. We were terrified until we realized that he was looking for a parking space.
	11:34pm Funky16Corners: Good times!
	11:34pm Franco Twinkie: RW, I drove Angeles Crest while blazing.
	11:37pm chresti: Frranco,All I remember is later, one of the fliers was having a bummer over a certain TV actor...Bob Cummings?
	11:38pm Franco Twinkie: Love That Bob!
	11:39pm chresti: It definitely was a Bob
	11:39pm rw: Oh man. We're heading into scary territory here... I need to get some work done so I'll have to refrain from story-time! Larry, I'm bummed that I've only been able to catch bits and pieces of tonight's show. All sounding great. Thank you for another compelling and enjoyable radio program!
	11:40pm Franco Twinkie: Larry, walked by The Matrix recently - It's a fancy pants bar now.

	11:49pm Funky16Corners: I hear stories like that about rare soul being picked up for pennies back in the day.
	11:49pm Franco Twinkie: Well, I was eight when The Beatles were on Ed Sullivan. I was confused about all the ruckus, but I came around PDQ.
