	12:04am coelacanth∅: greetings Ira and all
	12:05am Hoboken Jack: Good evening Ira, Scott, Joe, and anyone listening I'm Houston, space, or a camera shop.

	12:07am coelacanth∅: b&h is not just for shutterbugs anymore!
	12:10am rw: Hi
	12:10am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	12:10am BH: the team I'm watching won for the first time in a week, and even with certain things going on, the people I went to HS with are still posting first day of school photos of their kids on Facebook or Instagram. So, the world is still turning.
	12:11am Ira: Just when I learned how to type Ø, Jason hits me with the hearts. So much to learn!
	12:12am Joe B: they don't tell you any of that on the DJ sign-up sheet!
	12:12am Jedley: It's good to leave some room to grow! Just to get it on the record in black and white for the many and varied future readers of this comment thread, when is this new and hallowed time slot of which we are speaking?
	12:13am Jason from Houston: Hahaha... Wearing out that CTRL+V. Lots of love to these sounds.
	12:13am Ira: BH: I saw some live music yesterday. Arts for Art put on an outdoor show with a capacity of 30. It was fantastic!
	12:13am coelacanth∅: i think i've never heard afro blue before
	12:14am Ira: I showed some restraint and didn't play any of the 30+ minutes versions.
	12:14am Joe B: new FMU schedule here: www.wfmu.org...
	12:15am Jedley: ♡
	12:15am coelacanth∅: must be around '63? -before impressions?
	12:15am rw: Nothing beats early '60s Coltrane.
	12:16am rw: Nothing
	12:17am Ira: @coelacanthØ: precisely. Recorded Nov. 63.
	12:18am egould310: Now do Vanilla Blue.
	12:19am mndave: The playlist background is blue! Now I understand the show title.
	12:19am Nate K: I love Dean Martin’s country records.
	12:20am Jason from Houston: ꒰˘̩̩̩⌣˘̩̩̩ ꒱ ♡ ♡ ♡
	12:21am coelacanth∅: mndave this (<) is what i thought you were doing...a clear background
	12:21am Jedley: T-Bones! It's a crossover
	12:24am ultradamno: THAT'S PREPOSTEROUS!
	12:25am Ira: Yes, Jedley, it's one long show.
	12:26am coelacanth∅: first heard this by the new commander cody band (i think) when i was ~ 10? -a lot different than this! not preposterous.
	12:27am Joe B: yes!
	12:28am pp: Gerry Todd!
	12:29am Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ OH ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ DANG ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	12:30am Nate K: It’s been too long since I heard Orange Juice.
	12:30am Ira: Hope you've all seen Edwyn Collins backed by Teenage Fanclub at the Monorail record shop on youtube. It's so good.
	12:31am toots: Wow Orange Juice, yes, thanks!
	12:32am Owen: Tuning in from Portland, OR! Cool theme! Sad I can't listen live to the new time slot :(
	12:32am coelacanth∅: you're not going to cheat and play songs called "blues" with "blues" in the title (ie"walkin' blues") are ya?!
	12:32am Aitch: Too easy
	12:33am Ira: @coelacanthØ: I haven't yet.
	12:33am Aitch: Humming Bat's track Made up in Blue while I think of others
	12:38am egould310: Omg there are soooo many songs with blue (not blues) in the title. Can’t wait to see where this goes. Sipping bourbon and getting real cozy with the tunes.
	12:40am coelacanth∅: if it's a blues song about blues or something blue then it's not cheating. like "blue-eyed Maggie blues" -which i just made up but there must be a few songs like that out there. (of course, these are rules that only apply to me, i realise)
	12:41am coelacanth∅: ...or "i got the blues", which is a blues song about having the blues but not called "a blues"
	12:41am Ira: @egould310: bourbon and Lambchop strikes me as a perfect combination.
	12:42am Jedley: We should start a betting market on what blue songs will or won't get played. Is that legal on the New Jersey internet? Basically I want to make money on my keen intuition that we won't hear Blue Christmas
	12:42am Ira: Jedley, you're just saying that because you already heard Joe Flaherty as Bing Crosby sing White Christmas.
	12:43am Jedley: At almost exactly 1225 Eastern time no less!
	12:43am coelacanth∅: we'll have to meet on another playlist so as not to influence the selector.
	12:44am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡
	12:46am Timo: Did anyone else hear CSNY Suite: Judy Blue Eyes? because I don't recall singing the dudududoots.
	12:46am Hoboken Jack: Blue anecdote. When I was about 10 I won a K-Tel type cassette at some kind of synagogue carnival. I listened to it over and over and it contained the countryish pop hit "Bluer Than Blue" by Michael Johnson. Except my young brain saw it as Michael Jackson who was hitting it big with Off the Wall at that point. Even though it didn't sound anything remotely like the future Gloved One, for the longest time I was convinced "Bluer Than Blue" was a Michael Jackson song. The End
	12:47am Joe B: they were in there at the end but as gerry todd noted, the CSNY video started skipping
	12:48am coelacanth∅: all blues: 52% baby blue: 77% world of blue: 24% it's all over now baby blue: 49% pale blue eyes: 90%
	12:48am Ira: @Hoboken Jack: Did you win a raffle? A game of skill? Enquiring minds . . .
	12:48am Joe B: @Hoboken Jack - had a few of those. i thought sister golden hair was by george harrison (i guess the slide guitar was similar to 'give me love')
	12:50am Ira: @coelacanthØ: keep in mind that your programmer is currently playing Borbetomagus "covering" Blue Jay Way (although the source material will become clearer before it ends).
	12:50am pp: Rocco makes an appearance?
	12:51am coelacanth∅: i thought sister golden hair was someone else at first. now i've forgotten who
	12:51am Ira: I thought Stuck in the Middle With You was George Harrison.
	12:52am coelacanth∅: haha... Ira you've got it covered
	12:52am Aitch: Real toe-tapper...
	12:53am rw: I'm sensing a theme, but I'm not sure what it is...
	12:53am Ira: In case you're wondering, according to my virtual dj software, this is in C#. Not sure if that's C# major or minor.
	12:53am coelacanth∅: i thought stuck in the middle was Paul! i also thought alone again, naturally was Paul ...and badfinger, at first...of course
	12:54am rw: DJ software tells you the key?!
	12:54am Timo: @Joe B - thanks, but I don't see the gerry todd comment either and I looked 3x. Probably just a glitch in space/time, been happening a lot lately.
	12:55am Ira: Well, dj software tells me this is in C#. Not sure that's the same thing.
	12:56am AJ: Great show, love this Borbetomagus! @Hoboken Jack, I wish my synagogue had carnivals when I was a kid haha
	12:56am coelacanth∅: "Songs in the key of N#"
	12:56am Joe B: Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty were a duo known as Stealer's Wheel when they recorded this Dylanesque, pop, bubble-gum favorite from April of 1974; that reached up to number five, as K-Billy's Super Sounds of the Seventies weekend continues.
	12:58am John L: This is really good for some late night weight lifting.
	12:58am coelacanth∅: ha! "Dylanesque, pop, bubble-gum favorite" - and still i love it!
	12:58am Joe B: C very sharp
	12:59am Joe B: right on cue with George!
	12:59am vanya moscow: I was so waiting for them to get to it
	12:59am coelacanth∅: i'm sorry my singing wasn't right in time on blue jay way.
	1:00am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	1:00am Dungaroos Kipawah: Yoo Yoo Yoo Yuh Yahoo
	1:03am Joe B: hey DK!
	1:04am Jason from Houston: (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ
	1:05am Hoboken Jack: Trying to summon youthful carnival memories but I keep coming back to winning Scott Williams standing on his head via spinning the wheel at the record fair, sorry.
	1:07am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	1:09am Timo: Thank you Ira, not hearing Suite Judy Blue Eyes was almost as surprising as hearing Jonesy on Saturday this weekend.
	1:11am Jason from Houston: Off to bed now... Stay safe, sweet, and blue. Lots of love to you.
	1:12am egould310: Yes Peggy Lee.
	1:12am Ira: The typography is about to get a lot worse on the comments page w/Jason gone.
	1:12am Jason from Houston: ( ☉_☉)
	1:13am Jedley: What a voice!
	1:16am John L: Wild and Blue-Mekons, might be nice. I'm going to miss this time slot for you. Something about struggling to stay awake until 3 A.M. adds an appealing subterranean vibe to the show, or maybe it's just me.
	1:17am Ira: You and me both, John L.
	1:23am Dungaroos Kipawah: @ JB: Hey Joe! Hey Ira! Hey one & all!
	1:23am Agent Peter: oh nice, new slot is definitely on Tuesdays. Finally an end to the confusion..
	1:24am Ira: It's going to take more than knowing what day it is to end the confusion!
	1:25am Agent Peter: oh yeah. should have clarified just that particular flavor of confusion.
	1:28am Jedley: We've been enjoying the 9-midnight time slot already here in the West, and it's been sublime. Getting weird at 6pm will be a change, but sacrifices must be made to hear one's Looney Tunes
	1:28am Aitch: wabbit season...
	1:28am wabbit∅: duck season
	1:28am Aitch: duck season
	1:29am wabbit∅: rabbit season!
	1:30am Aitch: kapow
	1:30am bugs bunny∅: hey that was easier than i thought it would be!
	1:32am coelacanth∅: ...poor daffy
	1:35am Jedley: That exchange was good for a LOL. While the PSA is happening, hopefully @coela is calculating the odds that we won't hear Questions in a World of Blue from the Fire Walk with Me soundtrack.
	1:38am BH: all the census stuff is kept secret for 72 years.. so if we're alive in 2092, we'll be too old to lockup for anything we put on this Census. Also means that if you're trying to figure out the date of birth of anybody on the 1950 Census, that data is being released in April 2022.
	1:39am Gaylord Fields: As Dolly Parton sings in “Here You Come Again,” “You’re messing up mind, and filling out my census.” (This has been a public-service announcement from Lady Mondegreen and the Ad Council.)
	1:43am jeff-m: Sounding nice
	1:44am coelacanth∅: Jedley...uhh, 18%
	1:45am egould310: Thurston Moore is good. Acoustic guitar, though. Wanna hear those noisy noisy electric guitars.
	1:45am coelacanth∅: Gaylord haha
	1:47am postess: I’m adding Here You Come Again to my Census playlist...I’m an “enumerator” in Chicago
	1:48am coelacanth∅: so, BH, the people of this country don't have access to this information that some people in this country do have access to. - i know the solution. COUP D'ETAT
	1:49am Gaylord Fields: @postess: Keep on counting! @coel: And with that bonest of mots, I’m off to Dreamland. Looking forward to having less of an excuse to peace out halfway through Ira’s show starting next week.
	1:51am John L: Another blue though before bed-Kevin Ayers-Stranger In Blue Suede Shoes.
	1:51am Ira: Goodnight, Gaylord, and fear not, I'm a full-service dj. I always provide a listener with a reason to do something/anything else.
	1:53am Gaylord Fields: @Ira: I certainly wasn’t going to walk out during Neil Innes. Now I’ll hit the hay. Carry on blu-ing!
	1:58am coelacanth∅: 'night Gaylord - i'm soon to follow
	2:11am Owen: Great choice on caetano veloso, he's so good!
	2:12am Timo: Great spelling
	2:12am coelacanth∅: is this the same Zal Yanovsky from the lovin' spoonful? ???
	2:12am Ira: @coelacanth∅: Just want you to know, your betting line did not affect tonight's playlist. No thumb on the scale!
	2:13am tak: i could not be more blue than today. thank you so much for this lovely set and especially this song
	2:13am coelacanth∅: (and agreed about Caetano)
	2:13am Ira: Yes, Zal from the Spoonful.
	2:15am Jedley: Oh boy I am hopeful we are entering the innerspace voyage portion of the evening to which I so look forward and which I hope will persist despite the less somniferous hours of the program
	2:17am coelacanth∅: that's good Ira. i wasn't trying to do that. - and, wow, i had no idea Zal had solo material
	2:18am Ira: Maybe a little less innerspace tonight, Jedley. We'll find out together if the new time slot changes things.
	2:22am Aitch: Django Reinhardt my dad's fave. 88 now and frail, but he'd love this
	2:25am Jedley: Well my other favorite besides trance-inducing is sublimely beautiful, and you always bring that in spades!
	2:27am coelacanth∅: my blue train is here Thanks Ira! good night, blueberries
	2:28am Jedley: bluebye coela
	2:29am coelacanth∅: ...(stella blue: 21%; blue jean blues: 2%; counting blue cars:0.3%)
	2:32am Timo: Wow, my first NYC earthquake.
	2:35am Ira: I'm getting my news from the Comments. Didn't feel it, or if I did I assumed it was Hapshash and the Coloured Coat.
	2:36am Timo: Think it was appropriately during Blue Mountain.
	2:39am BH: checked Twitter, the report is 3.1, East Freehold (Monmouth County), New Jersey at 2am Eastern time
	2:44am Timo: During Sinatra in Springsteen's town? How Jersey can ya get?
	2:44am rw: Thanks Ira! Great show. Blue. Good night everyone!
	2:46am Ira: Goodnight, rw. Thanks for listening and commenting.
	2:50am Jedley: Wow! This is the surprise of the night. I thought it was going to be Crowbar til I realized it wasn't that Crowbar
	2:53am BH: okay, there's something chirping outside during "Blue Calx"... and it fits the song
	2:54am BH: also one of the cats down here snores loudly
	2:55am Jedley: His first 3 EPs were mostly sampled cat snores
	2:58am tak: the morning is also very blue and grey. the sun is definitely blue today
	2:59am Jedley: It's very rewarding to have the show end at midnight--almost ritualistic, you'll love it. Thanks for a lovely and blue evening Ira and everyone!

	12:29am Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ OH ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱ DANG ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	12:30am Nate K: It’s been too long since I heard Orange Juice.
	12:30am Ira: Hope you've all seen Edwyn Collins backed by Teenage Fanclub at the Monorail record shop on youtube. It's so good.
	12:31am toots: Wow Orange Juice, yes, thanks!
	12:32am Owen: Tuning in from Portland, OR! Cool theme! Sad I can't listen live to the new time slot :(
	12:32am coelacanth∅: you're not going to cheat and play songs called "blues" with "blues" in the title (ie"walkin' blues") are ya?!
	12:32am Aitch: Too easy
	12:33am Ira: @coelacanthØ: I haven't yet.
	12:33am Aitch: Humming Bat's track Made up in Blue while I think of others
	12:38am egould310: Omg there are soooo many songs with blue (not blues) in the title. Can’t wait to see where this goes. Sipping bourbon and getting real cozy with the tunes.
	12:40am coelacanth∅: if it's a blues song about blues or something blue then it's not cheating. like "blue-eyed Maggie blues" -which i just made up but there must be a few songs like that out there. (of course, these are rules that only apply to me, i realise)
	12:41am coelacanth∅: ...or "i got the blues", which is a blues song about having the blues but not called "a blues"
	12:41am Ira: @egould310: bourbon and Lambchop strikes me as a perfect combination.
	12:42am Jedley: We should start a betting market on what blue songs will or won't get played. Is that legal on the New Jersey internet? Basically I want to make money on my keen intuition that we won't hear Blue Christmas
	12:42am Ira: Jedley, you're just saying that because you already heard Joe Flaherty as Bing Crosby sing White Christmas.
	12:43am Jedley: At almost exactly 1225 Eastern time no less!
	12:43am coelacanth∅: we'll have to meet on another playlist so as not to influence the selector.
	12:44am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡
	12:46am Timo: Did anyone else hear CSNY Suite: Judy Blue Eyes? because I don't recall singing the dudududoots.
	12:46am Hoboken Jack: Blue anecdote. When I was about 10 I won a K-Tel type cassette at some kind of synagogue carnival. I listened to it over and over and it contained the countryish pop hit "Bluer Than Blue" by Michael Johnson. Except my young brain saw it as Michael Jackson who was hitting it big with Off the Wall at that point. Even though it didn't sound anything remotely like the future Gloved One, for the longest time I was convinced "Bluer Than Blue" was a Michael Jackson song. The End
	12:47am Joe B: they were in there at the end but as gerry todd noted, the CSNY video started skipping
	12:48am coelacanth∅: all blues: 52% baby blue: 77% world of blue: 24% it's all over now baby blue: 49% pale blue eyes: 90%
	12:48am Ira: @Hoboken Jack: Did you win a raffle? A game of skill? Enquiring minds . . .
	12:48am Joe B: @Hoboken Jack - had a few of those. i thought sister golden hair was by george harrison (i guess the slide guitar was similar to 'give me love')
	12:50am Ira: @coelacanthØ: keep in mind that your programmer is currently playing Borbetomagus "covering" Blue Jay Way (although the source material will become clearer before it ends).
	12:50am pp: Rocco makes an appearance?
	12:51am coelacanth∅: i thought sister golden hair was someone else at first. now i've forgotten who
	12:51am Ira: I thought Stuck in the Middle With You was George Harrison.
	12:52am coelacanth∅: haha... Ira you've got it covered
	12:52am Aitch: Real toe-tapper...
	12:53am rw: I'm sensing a theme, but I'm not sure what it is...
	12:53am Ira: In case you're wondering, according to my virtual dj software, this is in C#. Not sure if that's C# major or minor.
	12:53am coelacanth∅: i thought stuck in the middle was Paul! i also thought alone again, naturally was Paul ...and badfinger, at first...of course
	12:54am rw: DJ software tells you the key?!
	12:54am Timo: @Joe B - thanks, but I don't see the gerry todd comment either and I looked 3x. Probably just a glitch in space/time, been happening a lot lately.
	12:55am Ira: Well, dj software tells me this is in C#. Not sure that's the same thing.
	12:56am AJ: Great show, love this Borbetomagus! @Hoboken Jack, I wish my synagogue had carnivals when I was a kid haha
	12:56am coelacanth∅: "Songs in the key of N#"
	12:56am Joe B: Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty were a duo known as Stealer's Wheel when they recorded this Dylanesque, pop, bubble-gum favorite from April of 1974; that reached up to number five, as K-Billy's Super Sounds of the Seventies weekend continues.
	12:58am John L: This is really good for some late night weight lifting.
	12:58am coelacanth∅: ha! "Dylanesque, pop, bubble-gum favorite" - and still i love it!
	12:58am Joe B: C very sharp
	12:59am Joe B: right on cue with George!
	12:59am vanya moscow: I was so waiting for them to get to it
	12:59am coelacanth∅: i'm sorry my singing wasn't right in time on blue jay way.
	1:00am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	1:00am Dungaroos Kipawah: Yoo Yoo Yoo Yuh Yahoo
	1:03am Joe B: hey DK!
	1:04am Jason from Houston: (ﾉ･ｪ･)ﾉ
	1:05am Hoboken Jack: Trying to summon youthful carnival memories but I keep coming back to winning Scott Williams standing on his head via spinning the wheel at the record fair, sorry.
	1:07am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	1:09am Timo: Thank you Ira, not hearing Suite Judy Blue Eyes was almost as surprising as hearing Jonesy on Saturday this weekend.
	1:11am Jason from Houston: Off to bed now... Stay safe, sweet, and blue. Lots of love to you.
	1:12am egould310: Yes Peggy Lee.
	1:12am Ira: The typography is about to get a lot worse on the comments page w/Jason gone.
	1:12am Jason from Houston: ( ☉_☉)
	1:13am Jedley: What a voice!
	1:16am John L: Wild and Blue-Mekons, might be nice. I'm going to miss this time slot for you. Something about struggling to stay awake until 3 A.M. adds an appealing subterranean vibe to the show, or maybe it's just me.
	1:17am Ira: You and me both, John L.
	1:23am Dungaroos Kipawah: @ JB: Hey Joe! Hey Ira! Hey one & all!
	1:23am Agent Peter: oh nice, new slot is definitely on Tuesdays. Finally an end to the confusion..
	1:24am Ira: It's going to take more than knowing what day it is to end the confusion!
	1:25am Agent Peter: oh yeah. should have clarified just that particular flavor of confusion.
	1:28am Jedley: We've been enjoying the 9-midnight time slot already here in the West, and it's been sublime. Getting weird at 6pm will be a change, but sacrifices must be made to hear one's Looney Tunes
	1:28am Aitch: wabbit season...
	1:28am wabbit∅: duck season
	1:28am Aitch: duck season
	1:29am wabbit∅: rabbit season!
	1:30am Aitch: kapow
	1:30am bugs bunny∅: hey that was easier than i thought it would be!
	1:32am coelacanth∅: ...poor daffy
	1:35am Jedley: That exchange was good for a LOL. While the PSA is happening, hopefully @coela is calculating the odds that we won't hear Questions in a World of Blue from the Fire Walk with Me soundtrack.
	1:38am BH: all the census stuff is kept secret for 72 years.. so if we're alive in 2092, we'll be too old to lockup for anything we put on this Census. Also means that if you're trying to figure out the date of birth of anybody on the 1950 Census, that data is being released in April 2022.
	1:39am Gaylord Fields: As Dolly Parton sings in “Here You Come Again,” “You’re messing up mind, and filling out my census.” (This has been a public-service announcement from Lady Mondegreen and the Ad Council.)
	1:43am jeff-m: Sounding nice
	1:44am coelacanth∅: Jedley...uhh, 18%
	1:45am egould310: Thurston Moore is good. Acoustic guitar, though. Wanna hear those noisy noisy electric guitars.
	1:45am coelacanth∅: Gaylord haha
	1:47am postess: I’m adding Here You Come Again to my Census playlist...I’m an “enumerator” in Chicago
	1:48am coelacanth∅: so, BH, the people of this country don't have access to this information that some people in this country do have access to. - i know the solution. COUP D'ETAT
	1:49am Gaylord Fields: @postess: Keep on counting! @coel: And with that bonest of mots, I’m off to Dreamland. Looking forward to having less of an excuse to peace out halfway through Ira’s show starting next week.
	1:51am John L: Another blue though before bed-Kevin Ayers-Stranger In Blue Suede Shoes.
	1:51am Ira: Goodnight, Gaylord, and fear not, I'm a full-service dj. I always provide a listener with a reason to do something/anything else.
	1:53am Gaylord Fields: @Ira: I certainly wasn’t going to walk out during Neil Innes. Now I’ll hit the hay. Carry on blu-ing!
	1:58am coelacanth∅: 'night Gaylord - i'm soon to follow
	2:11am Owen: Great choice on caetano veloso, he's so good!
	2:12am Timo: Great spelling
	2:12am coelacanth∅: is this the same Zal Yanovsky from the lovin' spoonful? ???
	2:12am Ira: @coelacanth∅: Just want you to know, your betting line did not affect tonight's playlist. No thumb on the scale!
	2:13am tak: i could not be more blue than today. thank you so much for this lovely set and especially this song
	2:13am coelacanth∅: (and agreed about Caetano)
	2:13am Ira: Yes, Zal from the Spoonful.
	2:15am Jedley: Oh boy I am hopeful we are entering the innerspace voyage portion of the evening to which I so look forward and which I hope will persist despite the less somniferous hours of the program
	2:17am coelacanth∅: that's good Ira. i wasn't trying to do that. - and, wow, i had no idea Zal had solo material
	2:18am Ira: Maybe a little less innerspace tonight, Jedley. We'll find out together if the new time slot changes things.
	2:22am Aitch: Django Reinhardt my dad's fave. 88 now and frail, but he'd love this
	2:25am Jedley: Well my other favorite besides trance-inducing is sublimely beautiful, and you always bring that in spades!
	2:27am coelacanth∅: my blue train is here Thanks Ira! good night, blueberries
	2:28am Jedley: bluebye coela
	2:29am coelacanth∅: ...(stella blue: 21%; blue jean blues: 2%; counting blue cars:0.3%)
	2:32am Timo: Wow, my first NYC earthquake.
	2:35am Ira: I'm getting my news from the Comments. Didn't feel it, or if I did I assumed it was Hapshash and the Coloured Coat.
	2:36am Timo: Think it was appropriately during Blue Mountain.
	2:39am BH: checked Twitter, the report is 3.1, East Freehold (Monmouth County), New Jersey at 2am Eastern time
	2:44am Timo: During Sinatra in Springsteen's town? How Jersey can ya get?
	2:44am rw: Thanks Ira! Great show. Blue. Good night everyone!
	2:46am Ira: Goodnight, rw. Thanks for listening and commenting.
	2:50am Jedley: Wow! This is the surprise of the night. I thought it was going to be Crowbar til I realized it wasn't that Crowbar
	2:53am BH: okay, there's something chirping outside during "Blue Calx"... and it fits the song
	2:54am BH: also one of the cats down here snores loudly
	2:55am Jedley: His first 3 EPs were mostly sampled cat snores
	2:58am tak: the morning is also very blue and grey. the sun is definitely blue today
	2:59am Jedley: It's very rewarding to have the show end at midnight--almost ritualistic, you'll love it. Thanks for a lovely and blue evening Ira and everyone!
