Listener comments!
	12:02am coelacanth∅: hey Tom and invisible future people
	12:03am Franco Twinkie: The party continues...Tom!
	12:03am TomDash: 'mornin' folks - Happy Woodstock50!!!
	12:06am javakid: Total Control is such a good band - don't have the album you are playing from but really like.
	12:11am Franco Twinkie: True story: Right after Woodstock my parents bought a set of World Book encyclopedias. I asked the salesman if Woodstock would be in a future edition. This caused howls of laughter and much eye rolling. My parents never let me forget it. I haven't checked, but I'll bet it is now.
	12:12am Franco Twinkie: This was a big record for me 40 years ago.
	12:14am TomDash: Ha Franco...great story!
	12:20am diciassette: oh my gosh everything sounds so good
	12:23am coelacanth∅: Franco i'm sure it's in there now
	12:25am diciassette: Total Control by the Motels? That would really impress me.
	12:32am coelacanth∅: hey, you have pasta on your head! just thought you might like to know.
	12:33am diciassette: where is my pasta!
	12:34am coelacanth∅: oh, my mistake. i haven't seen it.
	12:34am coelacanth∅: now, where's my fork?
	12:37am diciassette: dov'è la tua forchetta
	12:42am diciassette: Dark Entries is a bay area heroin of mine.
	12:44am coelacanth∅: more food. and i can't find my fork. hummus and pasta can be quite good.
	12:47am Carmichael: Is this Ian Matthews? Excellent choice.
	12:47am coelacanth∅: up here we refer to the town of woodstock (which of course rejected their town for the festival at the 11th hour, after it was all supposedly set) as weirdstock. ...there is a reason!
	12:50am coelacanth∅: agreeing with Carmichael. it's beautiful and i don't think i've ever heard it.
	12:50am TomDash: Yes Ian Matthews - I learned today that this song went to #1 in the UK
	12:51am Carmichael: He’s a Fairport alumnus, so he had some street cred.
	12:52am Franco Twinkie: Coel, boho weirdo or something more sinister?
	12:53am coelacanth∅: pretty things every week!
	12:54am coelacanth∅: ...(oh, excuse me! that's a thing from another show. one of the rare other shows that i might hear the pretty things on)
	12:54am Scraps: hey h’lo
	12:55am diciassette: ahoy scraps!
	12:56am diciassette: oh you pretty things
	12:59am coelacanth∅: Franco no not sinister! just that woodstock is jammed with old poseurs who act like they're representin' when they're just colorful capitalists;and stores marketing their junk or their mediocre-at-best food with hippiehype to young tourists and college students from new paltz...
	12:59am Scraps: h’lo diciassette cheers
	12:59am coelacanth∅: hey Scraps!
	1:01am Scraps: coelacanthø cheers h’lo
	1:02am diciassette: holy shit. This is my uncle Frank's band.
	1:03am coelacanth∅: when is this from?
	1:03am diciassette: The world, it is smaller than you think.
	1:04am Scraps: ahahaha!
	1:04am Ken From Hyde Park: Woohoo! You may inherit some royalties!
	1:04am diciassette: I could be wrong. But I also could not be wrong.
	1:05am coelacanth∅: great song! never heard this version.
	1:05am coelacanth∅: ...and that tripsichord song is excellent as well. i hope it's your uncle's band!
	1:06am Scraps.: Goddamn, that’s uncle ray and uncle dave !
	1:06am TomDash: Hey folks, thanks for tuning in...some tech issues, so playing a little catch up!
	1:07am Ken From Hyde Park: The article mentions Frank Straight on guitar: en.wikipedia.org...
	1:07am coelacanth∅: hey Unca D whatcha doin' on the radio?
	1:07am diciassette: Uncle Frank!
	1:09am diciassette: It's about time for a N. Young remix
	1:09am sufferwords: wasn’t gonna smoke any weed tonight but you’re kinda forcing the issue here Tom.
	1:11am Scraps.: I wasn’t going to drop the brown acid but you’re forcing the issue, man
	1:12am diciassette: pass the ___ on the ___ hand side, scraps
	1:12am TomDash: Ha - let the journey take you where it wants to go, man...
	1:13am coelacanth∅: hey you can take it with however many grains of salt you wish, but i heard the brown acid is not specifically too good. but it's your trip.
	1:15am coelacanth∅: so it says Uncle Frank moved to utah and was in another band called free spirit. does that sound right? and was it a "spiritual" band?
	1:17am Franco Twinkie: This set really captures the lost Saturday night augmented by some light blue tablets found in the pocket of a suede jacket left in the backseat of a 1962 Ford Falcon in Isla Vista.
	1:19am Fuzzy: A toast to freedom in memory of Captain America!
	1:19am coelacanth∅: this is like a wonderful cross between country joe and the fish and the velvet underground
	1:20am diciassette: Uncle Frank came from Manila, with (most of) the rest of my aunts and uncles on this one boat, which was called the "S.S. Hancock." They landed in Santa Maria and the rest is history.
	1:21am diciassette: "My Uncle was in a psychedelic Mormon band" (this never gets old)
	1:21am coelacanth∅: Franco those blue ones never did a thing for me. -maybe 'cuz they were 16 years old by the time they got to me.
	1:23am coelacanth∅: i love psychedelic mormon music
	1:24am TomDash: Went a little heavy on this set to clear the mind a bit! Glad you're digging it...next set will be searching for a little space....
	1:28am Franco Twinkie: These kind of bands would play next to the merry-go-round in Griffith Park on Sunday afternoons in 1972.
	1:33am BH: it sorta goes against the spirit of Hendrix's Woodstock contract to play Woodstock stuff and not play the Hendrix stuff last.
	1:36am coelacanth∅: you could look at it another way, because it was held on a weekend and the dates only deviate by one day; so 50 years ago tonight, on (the nearest) saturday night, who was playing between 12mn and 3am?
	1:36am Scraps: All of Crosby Stills Nash & Young are still alive. And Crosby is still an idiot asshole (haven’t met any of the others)
	1:37am TomDash: BH - I didn't actually PLAY any Woodstock stuff...
	1:38am coelacanth∅: (or, 50 years +/- 1 day)
	1:41am TomDash: Coelacantho - I am going by actual dates - Aug 15-18 (it was Friday to Monday) - 50 yrs later, this week it falls Thursday thru Sunday...
	1:44am TomDash: ...another fun fact, because stuff got so backed up Saturday night, The Who headlined at 5AM! They played all of Tommy plus a few tracks from 5-6AM! crazy...
	1:48am coelacanth∅: i know. i'm saying that giving a 1 day allowance is another way to look at it because it's like -what are we doing on this saturday nigh; what were THEY doing on this saturday night? (...probably is a more interesting distinction on monday morning though)
	1:50am TomDash: ah - gotcha - sorry the music is making my mind all fuzzy and stuff...
	1:51am coelacanth∅: this is fuzzmaking music.
	1:54am diciassette: Does your Crosby look like this * ?
	1:55am Franco Twinkie: According to the unimpeachable crap you read on the internet, The Who never forgave the Grateful Dead for not getting their stoned asses off the stage when they were supposed to, so The Who could go on at the reasonable time of 3AM! And with that, I'm going to bed. Thanks Tom, Coel and all you other history buffs.
	1:56am TomDash: Thanks for tunin' in Franco - glad you dug the tunes...
	1:58am diciassette: Obviously I am only trying to help comme toujours
	2:02am coelacanth∅: seems likely to me that the dead would've done that. i doubt any members of the who will carry/carried that grudge to his grave though. i hope not!
	2:14am BH: I was kinda disappointed that they didn't try to do Woodstock 50 because it would be very authentic to have that be a logistical disaster.
	2:18am Scraps: Love Etron Fou Leloublan.
	2:19am TomDash: BH - indeed!
	2:19am diciassette: « Only the dead know Brooklyn »
	2:32am Hubig Pie: I am a baby boomer and my Woodstock experience was watching Carol Burnett in my PJs in the living room. That generation lasted 25 years
	2:38am diciassette: God bless Carol Burnett « You lock the orphans in the closet. They love it! »
	2:40am coelacanth∅: i've got to sign off Thanks Tom Great program! good night hippies.
	2:41am TomDash: thanks as always coealcantho!
	2:50am Hubig Pie: Hiippie dancing is dangerous, you could put someone's eye out with your elbow
	2:53am TomDash: Thanks for tuning into the show, all you dirty Hippies! Really appreciate it. See ya next week!
	7:30am Ken From Hyde Park: CCR, another band upset at the Grateful Dead's Woodstock performance: www.latimes.com...
	5:03am Kasseyy Sk: This Silver Apples cover was cool the first time I heard it. Now I just want to listen to Silver Apples https://testmyspeed.onl/
	3:59am polinkuer12: I never knew about this information! very useful information quikdraw.io
