Listener comments!
	♥ 3:00pm Cmurtha: Hello everyone!
	♥ 3:03pm David D: Hello Cmurtha!
	3:04pm chresti: Hi David
	♥ 3:04pm coelacanth∅: hey David & all
	♥ 3:05pm David D: Hey Chresti and Coelacanth!
	🚂 ♥ 3:05pm chris: hey, David and folks. dreams of peace and solace. yes, please.
	♥ 3:06pm David D: Greetings, Chris - Cs all around!
	3:18pm Carmichael: Heya David and commuters.
	♥ 3:21pm Cavid C: Hey there, Carmichael - okay, I'll change my name to fit in alphabetically.
	🚂 ♥ 3:22pm chris: :)
	🚂 ♥ 3:25pm chris: there were a bunch of 'c' named regulars commenting on a former show on fmu; so much so that the comments area became affectionately known as the c-section.
	♥ 3:27pm coelacanth∅: oh it's the new, revised c-section
	♥ 3:27pm Cavid C: That is funny, Chris. Okay, I'll stay in the section - at least until someone breaks the c-pell.
	♥ 3:27pm Webhamster Henry: Hi Turnstylers!
	♥ 3:28pm fred: Good evening David and listeners
	♥ 3:28pm David D: Hey Henry and Fred! Looks like I'm back to Ds now...
	♥ 3:30pm coelacanth∅: i can be a david. i've told the tale already but many people have thought i am david...my whole life, and over a 3000+ mile span
	♥ 3:35pm fred: @coel: Many people have thought I'm a Chris, maybe I could have pulled it off
	♥ 3:36pm chresti: On board now. I was following in my car before..
	♥ 3:38pm David D: I've found that people often confuse David and Daniel, but that makes sense I guess.
	3:41pm Dean: Ds need to stick together. Chris speaks of Diane Kamikaze Fun Machine. I was a proud listener, and never once did I feel pressured or marginalized by Cs.
	🚂 ♥ 3:43pm chris: glad to hear it, Dean! no marginalization was ever intended. :) i've never truly identified as a Chris, btw. never came up with a better name, either. so we'll settle on the lower case, then.
	3:45pm Dean: I identify as Eleanor Roosevelt, but that's just me. Well, and Franklin, too.
	♥ 3:45pm David D: Hello Dean - yes, no letters need be in the margins here (unless they so choose of course).
	🚂 ♥ 3:45pm chris: wow, its been a minute since i listened to the Klezmatics. dig.
	♥ 3:46pm David D: Sorry, Eleanor-Franklin...
	♥ 3:46pm coelacanth∅: it's funny, fred -i've known so many Chrises (not counting the females, which would more than double the number) and though the appearance varies quite a lot i still have a basic image when i learn of a chris. i know i'm way off sometimes. i haven't been acquainted with many freds. only one i can think of, and you don't look like him, i'm sure! i know this because he could never be mistaken for a chris!
	3:52pm Dean: Warm it up, Kris!
	♥ 3:54pm fred: @coel: I think much of that comes down to a place and time when a name was popular. Which obviously doesn't work for Daves, who are everywhere throughout time
	3:56pm Dean: What are the odds? I invoke FDR up-thread a few minutes ago, and just now I turn the page in a book I'm skimming about exploratory data analysis and up pops an example featuring FDR!
	♥ 3:58pm coelacanth∅: fred -and richards...
	♥ 3:59pm coelacanth∅: (mikes, even more so)
	♥ 4:03pm David D: Yes, Mikes beat Daves out for 1st place in my age cohort, in any case.
	♥ 4:09pm fred: That's were place comes into play: I don't know any French Richard between 20 and 60, and only one Mike (though I do know several Michelles)
	♥ 4:11pm coelacanth∅: i think michael has been the most popular boy name the majority of the time for many decades now -at least in "western" culture. (i think the most common male name in the world is mohamed)
	♥ 4:13pm fred: @Dean: And FDR just popped up in an article I'm reading right now
	♥ 4:13pm David D: Ah yes, I meant in my age group where I grew up, the US. David has only become more popular here in recent years, Michael seems to be well represented everywhere, though.
	4:14pm Carmichael: this is some righteous guitar.
	4:14pm Dean: The eerie ubiquity of FDR...
	♥ 4:15pm coelacanth∅: i haven't known many french people, but i did know a Michele (sp, for males?), a Domonique (sp?) an Antione and a Maxime...
	♥ 4:16pm coelacanth∅: (i think i got Antoine wrong too!)
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: i think Pete only penned a little of turn turn turn, most of it being taken from the bible?
	4:22pm Dean: I've met an Alganesh and a Nilufar, and I toyed with naming offspring Montserrat or Pilar.
	♥ 4:22pm David D: Coelacanth: True, he kind of had a bit of help with the lyrics...
	4:22pm Carmichael: Yep, book of Ecclesiastes.
	♥ 4:24pm coelacanth∅: he wrote this one right?
	♥ 4:25pm David D: Coel: Yes, the hammer is his - not the Estonian version of course...
	♥ 4:26pm fred: @coel: That would be Michel (or Michael) for males (Michele or Michelle for females) and Dominique for either
	♥ 4:26pm Webhamster Henry: @Coelocanth - yes, with Lee Hays. Seek out WASN'T THAT A TIME, a documentary of putting together the Weavers final reunion concert (yeah, like A MIGHTY WIND, but for real).
	♥ 4:27pm David D: In Germany, there is a law that names have to be recognizable as either male or female, and if not another (middle) name has to be added that is.
	♥ 4:29pm Webhamster Henry: Pete was great and easy to run into if visiting Beacon. He was very generous and as he lost his singing voice, he took to touring with choirs, and he just told everyone else to sing along, which they did anyway.
	♥ 4:29pm fred: @David: my German boss finds it hilarious that some people in France have last names that are also common first names
	♥ 4:30pm Webhamster Henry: @David D I can't imagine non binaries are happy with that.
	♥ 4:30pm coelacanth∅: fred, thanks. many years ago. he was a very gifted psychic i knew in the 90s. holy crap! i only know this by the 3 dog night version!
	♥ 4:31pm David D: Henry: Very true. It is an old law, and I can imagine it being revisited at some point.
	♥ 4:32pm coelacanth∅: David Wow! i'm surprised at that law! germany seems so liberal to me in matters such as that
	♥ 4:33pm coelacanth∅: oh, i see (@4.31) ...i know people weren't always so liberal
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: the first place i rented in new paltz (2002-2005) Pete Seeger visited regularly -for a group thing that my landlady hosted. i was home one time when he was there, in the living room, but i didn't want anything to do with what was going on in there so i stayed in my bedroom and never met him!
	♥ 4:42pm David D: Wow, that must have been quite a place, Coel!
	♥ 4:44pm coelacanth∅: David, it was...interesting!
	♥ 4:44pm Webhamster Henry: We sang little boxes last night (bluegrass jam) , but the main singer didn't know the melody.
	♥ 4:45pm Webhamster Henry: And of course we didn't know the Icelandic words.
	♥ 4:47pm David D: Few remember that third Icelandic verse.
	♥ 4:51pm fred: One (more) weird thing about Einstürzende Neubauten is that their shows in Paris are usually super-expensive. So much so that it's actually cheaper to go to like Brussels to see them, even by train
	4:52pm still b/p: Now, the similarity between "Little Boxes" and "There's a Pawn Shop on the Corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania" is pretty striking. SO much so that i'm surprised it's not mentioned in info I could find in quick look, except for a comment on wiki Talk page on "Little Boxes."
	4:54pm northguineahills: @fred: I think I saw them for US $20 a decade ago in Brooklyn.
	♥ 4:58pm fred: @ngh: Yeah, as far as I know, it's a Paris thing. How are things going on the job front? Did you hear from the New York guys?
	♥ 4:58pm David D: Greetings NGH and SBP!
	♥ 4:59pm David D: Yes, the songs are very similar, sb/p, now that you mention it...
	5:00pm still b/p: I thought it was "Pawnshop" at first and thought that'd an unusual item in the line-up. Great show!
	♥ 5:05pm David D: Thanks, still b/p!
	5:09pm northguineahills: @fred: They gave the NYC gig to someone who already lives there. Tried to start a freelance job last week, but my card cancelled, as the new one was sent to my NYC address, so, I have no working card. Went to the bank today to settle it. Now I can start (how to use my wife's card to download all of the necessary software).
	♥ 5:15pm David D: Sorry to hear that, NGH. Hope the freelancing works out with all its advantages and disadvantages...
	♥ 5:16pm David D: Is there a special card you need?
	5:18pm northguineahills: It's more of a side thing, not enough for the long-term. If I had mainstream talent, steve martin's SNL card would work....
	5:25pm northguineahills: ahhhh, was hoping for Leningrad Cowboys....
	♥ 5:27pm fred: I know a guy who often books tours for Uz Jsme Doma
	♥ 5:27pm David D: That was just plain old Leningrad.
	♥ 5:30pm David D: Fred: Great - are they often in Paris?
	♥ 5:36pm fred: Maybe every other year or so, he has trouble finding a place. I'm not sure, because when he does it's usually at a place that's not convenient for me (I don't drive, so I'm dependent on the subway and my boots)
	🚂 ♥ 5:39pm chris: must seek out this FFKT. cheers, David.
	5:39pm northguineahills: @fred: my wife learned to drive at age 36 (last fall), and now rents cars to improve her driving skills/run errands. So.... (but yeah, in NYC, I only rented a car when on holiday outside the city.).
	5:39pm Carmichael: Wow, I've seen so many iterations of these 4 guys over the years. Always great, no matter what the lineup.
	♥ 5:42pm fred: I saw Fred Frith twice a couple of weeks ago. Still playing good stuff
	5:52pm Carmichael: Is Frith playing in Paris, Fred??
	5:58pm northguineahills: Come on, play all 300! I had a friend in HS w/ a prog band call Yggdrasil....
	♥ 5:59pm David D: Someone has to record all 300 first, but that could someday be a show all of its own.
	♥ 5:59pm fred: More accurately Montreuil, which is next to Paris. He's had two three day residencies at Instants Chavirés in the past three years. He seems to have a friendly relationship with the people running that place, going back many years
	🚂 ♥ 6:00pm chris: thanks, David. catch ya next week. great show as always.
	♥ 6:08pm David D: Thanks, Chris! Have a great week...
	♥ 6:17pm Webhamster Henry: DD: I like you you've been using your last hour for contemporary classical music. WFMU is a little spare in that genre.
	♥ 6:18pm Webhamster Henry: @ngh I learned to drive at 46, but I'd rather the world changed so I'd never need a car.
	♥ 6:19pm David D: Glad you like it, Henry, it is an area that I've become increasingly fascinated with.
	6:24pm northguineahills: Jon Leifs, new to me!
	6:24pm northguineahills: (I've heard louder.)
	♥ 6:25pm David D: Yes, the name of the album is quite a claim.
	♥ 6:28pm David D: There seems to be an earlier release of the CD as "The Earthquake Experience", but I can't quite find any more information.
	6:28pm Dean: Once upon a time, the Telarc 1812 Overture was the go-to for system-destroying levels, as noted here: https://www.stereophile.com/content/recording-october-1979-telarc-1812-overture.
	♥ 6:30pm fred: Many contemporary classical composers view themselves highly (I think it takes that to stay at it), it's refreshing to see one be upfront about it and make such a claim
	♥ 6:33pm Brian in UK: Hello David and listeners. Bit late, just been watcing an amazing Lverpool v Barcelona game. Liverpool won 4-0.
	6:33pm northguineahills: Luc Ferrari seemed like a kind, nice, and ordinary bloke to me when I met him.
	♥ 6:35pm fred: Wow, you met Luc Ferrari!
	6:35pm northguineahills: @Brian: can't watch this year, comes on channels I don't have, and my bros'. service dropped Univision last month, so, I can't even can't get the Champs League en espanol.
	♥ 6:36pm Brian in UK: @ngh crazy game, as Liverpool were 3-0 down from the first leg. Even too much for Lionel.
	♥ 6:38pm David D: Hello Brian - that does sound quite dramatic!
	♥ 6:43pm Brian in UK: Sport is a bit like music, it can entrall and captivate. I was at the FA Cup semi-final last month and the scenes when Watford equalised were astounding. So much pent up energy. Like a good old fashioned gig.
	6:43pm northguineahills: @Brian: Saw the game report, good on the scousers!!
	6:45pm northguineahills: I go to an Orlando City SC game about once every 6 weeks. It's good fun. when the USMNT or the USWNT plays nearby, I take the American Outlaws (supporters) party bus and have a blast.....
	6:46pm northguineahills: off to shower, thanks David!
	♥ 6:47pm fred: @Brian in UK: I know two Lionels. One is a Japanese experimental music fan, not a match. The other is a noise guitar player who likes to play very loud, the "two much for Lionel" would make sense, but the soccer context doesn't fit. Google to the rescue: autocomplete suggests one Lionel Messi (I'm so ignorant about soccer)
	♥ 6:48pm Webhamster Henry: Not enough Brecht/Eisler stuff gets on the air!
	♥ 6:51pm Brian in UK: @fred yes Messi is a work of art when it comes to football. 600 goals in fourteen years. A sublime talent. I seem to remember a classical show on the station was it something 440?
	♥ 6:52pm fred: @David: If I can somehow talk a contemporary composer to send some music to the station, would you have access to it, or should they send it to you separately?
	♥ 6:52pm Webhamster Henry: @Brian yeas, it was Bethany Ryker's A440 / Stochastic Hit Parade
	♥ 6:52pm fred: @Brian in UK: A440, but it's not on the current schedule
	♥ 6:56pm Brian in UK: Thanks fred and WH.
	♥ 6:56pm chresti: Thanks David, next time, same station.
	♥ 6:56pm fred: Bronwyn B. also plays some classical music (but mostly show tunes)
	♥ 6:58pm chresti: Don't hear many songs about forest rangers, these days
	♥ 6:59pm David D: Thanks everyone! Have a great week...
	♥ 7:05pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David!
	🚂 ♥ 2:34pm Michael 98145: Another great show! Thanks.

	♥ 4:03pm David D: Yes, Mikes beat Daves out for 1st place in my age cohort, in any case.
	♥ 4:09pm fred: That's were place comes into play: I don't know any French Richard between 20 and 60, and only one Mike (though I do know several Michelles)
	♥ 4:11pm coelacanth∅: i think michael has been the most popular boy name the majority of the time for many decades now -at least in "western" culture. (i think the most common male name in the world is mohamed)
	♥ 4:13pm fred: @Dean: And FDR just popped up in an article I'm reading right now
	♥ 4:13pm David D: Ah yes, I meant in my age group where I grew up, the US. David has only become more popular here in recent years, Michael seems to be well represented everywhere, though.
	4:14pm Carmichael: this is some righteous guitar.
	4:14pm Dean: The eerie ubiquity of FDR...
	♥ 4:15pm coelacanth∅: i haven't known many french people, but i did know a Michele (sp, for males?), a Domonique (sp?) an Antione and a Maxime...
	♥ 4:16pm coelacanth∅: (i think i got Antoine wrong too!)
	♥ 4:21pm coelacanth∅: i think Pete only penned a little of turn turn turn, most of it being taken from the bible?
	4:22pm Dean: I've met an Alganesh and a Nilufar, and I toyed with naming offspring Montserrat or Pilar.
	♥ 4:22pm David D: Coelacanth: True, he kind of had a bit of help with the lyrics...
	4:22pm Carmichael: Yep, book of Ecclesiastes.
	♥ 4:24pm coelacanth∅: he wrote this one right?
	♥ 4:25pm David D: Coel: Yes, the hammer is his - not the Estonian version of course...
	♥ 4:26pm fred: @coel: That would be Michel (or Michael) for males (Michele or Michelle for females) and Dominique for either
	♥ 4:26pm Webhamster Henry: @Coelocanth - yes, with Lee Hays. Seek out WASN'T THAT A TIME, a documentary of putting together the Weavers final reunion concert (yeah, like A MIGHTY WIND, but for real).
	♥ 4:27pm David D: In Germany, there is a law that names have to be recognizable as either male or female, and if not another (middle) name has to be added that is.
	♥ 4:29pm Webhamster Henry: Pete was great and easy to run into if visiting Beacon. He was very generous and as he lost his singing voice, he took to touring with choirs, and he just told everyone else to sing along, which they did anyway.
	♥ 4:29pm fred: @David: my German boss finds it hilarious that some people in France have last names that are also common first names
	♥ 4:30pm Webhamster Henry: @David D I can't imagine non binaries are happy with that.
	♥ 4:30pm coelacanth∅: fred, thanks. many years ago. he was a very gifted psychic i knew in the 90s. holy crap! i only know this by the 3 dog night version!
	♥ 4:31pm David D: Henry: Very true. It is an old law, and I can imagine it being revisited at some point.
	♥ 4:32pm coelacanth∅: David Wow! i'm surprised at that law! germany seems so liberal to me in matters such as that
	♥ 4:33pm coelacanth∅: oh, i see (@4.31) ...i know people weren't always so liberal
	♥ 4:39pm coelacanth∅: the first place i rented in new paltz (2002-2005) Pete Seeger visited regularly -for a group thing that my landlady hosted. i was home one time when he was there, in the living room, but i didn't want anything to do with what was going on in there so i stayed in my bedroom and never met him!
	♥ 4:42pm David D: Wow, that must have been quite a place, Coel!
	♥ 4:44pm coelacanth∅: David, it was...interesting!
	♥ 4:44pm Webhamster Henry: We sang little boxes last night (bluegrass jam) , but the main singer didn't know the melody.
	♥ 4:45pm Webhamster Henry: And of course we didn't know the Icelandic words.
	♥ 4:47pm David D: Few remember that third Icelandic verse.
	♥ 4:51pm fred: One (more) weird thing about Einstürzende Neubauten is that their shows in Paris are usually super-expensive. So much so that it's actually cheaper to go to like Brussels to see them, even by train
	4:52pm still b/p: Now, the similarity between "Little Boxes" and "There's a Pawn Shop on the Corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania" is pretty striking. SO much so that i'm surprised it's not mentioned in info I could find in quick look, except for a comment on wiki Talk page on "Little Boxes."
	4:54pm northguineahills: @fred: I think I saw them for US $20 a decade ago in Brooklyn.
	♥ 4:58pm fred: @ngh: Yeah, as far as I know, it's a Paris thing. How are things going on the job front? Did you hear from the New York guys?
	♥ 4:58pm David D: Greetings NGH and SBP!
	♥ 4:59pm David D: Yes, the songs are very similar, sb/p, now that you mention it...
	5:00pm still b/p: I thought it was "Pawnshop" at first and thought that'd an unusual item in the line-up. Great show!
	♥ 5:05pm David D: Thanks, still b/p!
	5:09pm northguineahills: @fred: They gave the NYC gig to someone who already lives there. Tried to start a freelance job last week, but my card cancelled, as the new one was sent to my NYC address, so, I have no working card. Went to the bank today to settle it. Now I can start (how to use my wife's card to download all of the necessary software).
	♥ 5:15pm David D: Sorry to hear that, NGH. Hope the freelancing works out with all its advantages and disadvantages...
	♥ 5:16pm David D: Is there a special card you need?
	5:18pm northguineahills: It's more of a side thing, not enough for the long-term. If I had mainstream talent, steve martin's SNL card would work....
	5:25pm northguineahills: ahhhh, was hoping for Leningrad Cowboys....
	♥ 5:27pm fred: I know a guy who often books tours for Uz Jsme Doma
	♥ 5:27pm David D: That was just plain old Leningrad.
	♥ 5:30pm David D: Fred: Great - are they often in Paris?
	♥ 5:36pm fred: Maybe every other year or so, he has trouble finding a place. I'm not sure, because when he does it's usually at a place that's not convenient for me (I don't drive, so I'm dependent on the subway and my boots)
	🚂 ♥ 5:39pm chris: must seek out this FFKT. cheers, David.
	5:39pm northguineahills: @fred: my wife learned to drive at age 36 (last fall), and now rents cars to improve her driving skills/run errands. So.... (but yeah, in NYC, I only rented a car when on holiday outside the city.).
	5:39pm Carmichael: Wow, I've seen so many iterations of these 4 guys over the years. Always great, no matter what the lineup.
	♥ 5:42pm fred: I saw Fred Frith twice a couple of weeks ago. Still playing good stuff
	5:52pm Carmichael: Is Frith playing in Paris, Fred??
	5:58pm northguineahills: Come on, play all 300! I had a friend in HS w/ a prog band call Yggdrasil....
	♥ 5:59pm David D: Someone has to record all 300 first, but that could someday be a show all of its own.
	♥ 5:59pm fred: More accurately Montreuil, which is next to Paris. He's had two three day residencies at Instants Chavirés in the past three years. He seems to have a friendly relationship with the people running that place, going back many years
	🚂 ♥ 6:00pm chris: thanks, David. catch ya next week. great show as always.
	♥ 6:08pm David D: Thanks, Chris! Have a great week...
	♥ 6:17pm Webhamster Henry: DD: I like you you've been using your last hour for contemporary classical music. WFMU is a little spare in that genre.
	♥ 6:18pm Webhamster Henry: @ngh I learned to drive at 46, but I'd rather the world changed so I'd never need a car.
	♥ 6:19pm David D: Glad you like it, Henry, it is an area that I've become increasingly fascinated with.
	6:24pm northguineahills: Jon Leifs, new to me!
	6:24pm northguineahills: (I've heard louder.)
	♥ 6:25pm David D: Yes, the name of the album is quite a claim.
	♥ 6:28pm David D: There seems to be an earlier release of the CD as "The Earthquake Experience", but I can't quite find any more information.
	6:28pm Dean: Once upon a time, the Telarc 1812 Overture was the go-to for system-destroying levels, as noted here: https://www.stereophile.com/content/recording-october-1979-telarc-1812-overture.
	♥ 6:30pm fred: Many contemporary classical composers view themselves highly (I think it takes that to stay at it), it's refreshing to see one be upfront about it and make such a claim
	♥ 6:33pm Brian in UK: Hello David and listeners. Bit late, just been watcing an amazing Lverpool v Barcelona game. Liverpool won 4-0.
	6:33pm northguineahills: Luc Ferrari seemed like a kind, nice, and ordinary bloke to me when I met him.
	♥ 6:35pm fred: Wow, you met Luc Ferrari!
	6:35pm northguineahills: @Brian: can't watch this year, comes on channels I don't have, and my bros'. service dropped Univision last month, so, I can't even can't get the Champs League en espanol.
	♥ 6:36pm Brian in UK: @ngh crazy game, as Liverpool were 3-0 down from the first leg. Even too much for Lionel.
	♥ 6:38pm David D: Hello Brian - that does sound quite dramatic!
	♥ 6:43pm Brian in UK: Sport is a bit like music, it can entrall and captivate. I was at the FA Cup semi-final last month and the scenes when Watford equalised were astounding. So much pent up energy. Like a good old fashioned gig.
	6:43pm northguineahills: @Brian: Saw the game report, good on the scousers!!
	6:45pm northguineahills: I go to an Orlando City SC game about once every 6 weeks. It's good fun. when the USMNT or the USWNT plays nearby, I take the American Outlaws (supporters) party bus and have a blast.....
	6:46pm northguineahills: off to shower, thanks David!
	♥ 6:47pm fred: @Brian in UK: I know two Lionels. One is a Japanese experimental music fan, not a match. The other is a noise guitar player who likes to play very loud, the "two much for Lionel" would make sense, but the soccer context doesn't fit. Google to the rescue: autocomplete suggests one Lionel Messi (I'm so ignorant about soccer)
	♥ 6:48pm Webhamster Henry: Not enough Brecht/Eisler stuff gets on the air!
	♥ 6:51pm Brian in UK: @fred yes Messi is a work of art when it comes to football. 600 goals in fourteen years. A sublime talent. I seem to remember a classical show on the station was it something 440?
	♥ 6:52pm fred: @David: If I can somehow talk a contemporary composer to send some music to the station, would you have access to it, or should they send it to you separately?
	♥ 6:52pm Webhamster Henry: @Brian yeas, it was Bethany Ryker's A440 / Stochastic Hit Parade
	♥ 6:52pm fred: @Brian in UK: A440, but it's not on the current schedule
	♥ 6:56pm Brian in UK: Thanks fred and WH.
	♥ 6:56pm chresti: Thanks David, next time, same station.
	♥ 6:56pm fred: Bronwyn B. also plays some classical music (but mostly show tunes)
	♥ 6:58pm chresti: Don't hear many songs about forest rangers, these days
	♥ 6:59pm David D: Thanks everyone! Have a great week...
	♥ 7:05pm coelacanth∅: Thanks David!
	🚂 ♥ 2:34pm Michael 98145: Another great show! Thanks.
