	♥ 6:22pm chresti: \\// Handy
	♥ 6:23pm Handy Haversack: \\ //, chresti.
	♥ 6:23pm adamdoesit: Hi Therese, chresti, spodi, and everyone. Therese, as often when I listen to your show, I hear it and go, "oh, so that's how I feel." Also, my kitty, whom I adore, is being super loud, shouting at me all the time, and generally driving me crazy, even when she has food in her bowl. What are you saying, kitty?
	♥ 6:24pm Stevel: Well, THAT's terrifying, when you put it that way (Spitting in the cup per Govt. request.)
	♥ 6:24pm Handy Haversack: Therese, we have a tiny and aged kitty: Callipygian is eighteen(!) and weighs maybe five pounds. She's a Greenpoint native (and calico!).
	6:24pm Therese: @adamdoesit: she's probably wondering why you are ALWAYS HOME!
	6:26pm Therese: @Handy: Margaret is from the mean streets of Williamsburg.
	6:26pm pgalub: Hi Therese and Everybody!
	6:27pm Therese: Hey pgalub!
	♥ 6:27pm Handy Haversack: Nice! Pygian came out of the back yard. Voltron was living in the wheel well of a car parked by Prospect Park. Lulu is a Brooklynite but grew up in a deli -- pretty cush by comparison!
	♥ 6:28pm Woo: @Handy We had a calico that lived to 22. And she was an outdoor cat. I would cook little hamburgers for her.
	♥ 6:30pm Handy Haversack: Wow, Woo, that's amazing. Pygian seems determined to reach a ripe age. She's a great little cat. Super weird.
	♥ 6:30pm chresti: Hi adam, I've known a couple elderly siamese cats like that. One, Jaibo, had an over-active thyroid.
	6:31pm Joe B: loving that Special Pillow cover!
	6:32pm Therese: It's so good!
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: minks? i heard oregon has a mink problem now too.
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: zombie virus minks
	6:33pm Therese: I heard that, Spodiodi!
	♥ 6:33pm Handy Haversack: Apparently they weren't real zombies.
	♥ 6:33pm Stevel: How hard could it be to properly bury a zombie mink?
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: hi Handy, Ken, Joe B!
	6:34pm Roberto: Ugh, don't remind me. Can we freakin' ban that shite already? (needless mass murder of animals)
	♥ 6:35pm Handy Haversack: Hey, spod! All hail the Skeletons! Those are undead you can set your watch to!
	♥ 6:35pm spodiodi: i'm off the cookies :~(
	6:35pm Roberto: Brought to you by the country whose principal zoo kills its lions when there are too many of them.
	6:35pm Heath: Hi all, bless the skeleton crew
	♥ 6:35pm spodiodi: i need alt.treats
	♥ 6:36pm Asheville Jon: hahahaha, thanks for the ZOMBIE MINK info!!
	♥ 6:39pm suzyhotrod: Hi Therese! Extra extra support on that Ruth technical support cheer. I just had to help my mom setup her Zoom/video/microphone and I think I lost 1 year off my life.
	6:39pm Joe B: hey spodiodi!
	♥ 6:41pm Stevel: suzyhotrod: I recently inherited those duties when my sister moved out of the area. Thoughts and prayers.
	6:41pm HyperDose: Kitty! 😍
	♥ 6:41pm spodiodi: cheers to Ruth! i know what you mean, Suzy -- sounds about how i felt when i tried to teach my dad how to log in to windows (unsuccessfully, years ago)
	♥ 6:42pm spodiodi: lol Stevel
	♥ 6:43pm Rtintera: i love loma. so good
	6:44pm Therese: @Suzy- my parents have figured out Zoom, thankfully! But I once had to explain to my dad why I couldn't resize, color-correct and clean the scratches off of an old snapshot of my grandparents with the copy Microsoft Paint he had on his PC.
	♥ 6:45pm DonJuanTijuana: Hi @Therese..better late than never!
	♥ 6:50pm spodiodi: haha, Therese (MS Paint explanation) :)
	♥ 6:51pm Asheville Jon: nice on the Nesmith!
	♥ 6:54pm Handy Haversack: I'd settle for getting my sisters to understand that both Facebook and COVID weddings are bad.
	6:55pm Therese: Oh, families!
	6:55pm phat: Thank you for the First National Band
	6:59pm Joe B: yeah Marty!
	♥ 7:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If kiity's name was And Margaret that would rawk.
	7:00pm phat: Oh damn, I think this is my favorite Jefferson Starship tune. It's ridiculous, but I love it.
	7:01pm Joe B: great single edit. album version is more than double the length
	7:01pm phat: This is the Balinist of all recordings.
	♥ 7:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's Marty Balin. Not a thing wrong with it.
	♥ 7:02pm Gaylord Fields: I've always loved this Starship song, especially the single edit, as Joe B points out.
	7:02pm phat: It's just so Balin, and 1970s. Just so...
	7:03pm Hope Chernov: dayum Therese, this is it
	♥ 7:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's smooth - but not slick. Well - there is Slick...
	7:03pm Therese: @Joe B & Gaylord: it's on the Bob Stanley comp that was in the New Bin a month or so back.
	7:03pm Joe B: I missed that comp, thanks for the heads up
	♥ 7:03pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Therese! I missed that comp in the New Bin.
	7:04pm Joe B: also, this was the one jefferson starship song that was played at the jefferson airplane 1989 reunion tour show I attended
	♥ 7:07pm Franco Twinkie: Miracles will always remind me of a grey afternoon at the laundromat in San Francisco during the summer of 1975.
	♥ 7:07pm DjLorraine: Whoops
	7:07pm ?: I also had a roast chicken
	7:08pm tracy in LA: me too therese...roast chicken And getting to know my foster cat...these things take time...
	♥ 7:09pm Franco Twinkie: We had a chicken/vegetable pie, and we're about to have another.
	7:10pm Roberto: Aww, she'll warm up to you eventually. Probably.
	7:10pm slugluv1313: good evening, Therese and MARGARET! please give her cuddles for me :) hello to Skeletons, Everyone! been listening mostly in lurk mode -- how cool to FINALLY finish vacuuming and to hear "Miracles" -- and be instantly transported back 40+ years to high school art class -- we played LPs during class and "Red Octopus" was a huge favorite :)
	♥ 7:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Cat food needs to come in pie form.
	7:12pm phat: That chord progression still makes me dizzy.
	7:12pm alan the painter: Therese, that was an affectionate gesture by the cat, even biting, rambunctious kisses.
	♥ 7:12pm DjLorraine: Miracles nice
	7:12pm phat: New Pornographers, that is.
	7:12pm taryninstereo: I can’t believe how old this album really is!!!
	7:14pm Joe B: they played at FMU around then
	7:14pm Joe B: and did not play this song!
	7:14pm Andres: Evening Therese and all! That Brubeck story was great! I would nonetheless like to hear the story of the born city slicker who became the greatest selling cowpoke of all time.
	7:15pm slugluv1313: @Roberto -- AGREED! re: senseless murder of others (like here in NJ, the second half of the bear hunt is about to begin -- UGH)
	7:15pm herb.nyc: Mass Romantic cd is my wife. No joke. My neice was getting married in 2009. But I’m single, so I said “Lisa, I’ll lose face if you marry before me”. So an ordained via internet pastor married me to the cd, 3 days before Lisa’s big day. Whew!
	7:15pm PMD: Juice!
	♥ 7:15pm steveo: Juice! Haven't heard this one in ages. (Hi!)
	7:15pm Therese: @Joe- I think they played on Irene's show? Or maybe that was Neko Case solo...
	7:15pm phat: Oh no! I had this Juice Newton 7 inch. I wonder if I still have that lying around?
	♥ 7:15pm spodiodi: aloha, Andres!
	7:16pm Hope Chernov: Therese you are taking me down
	7:16pm PMD: We would always sing this song when playing hearts
	♥ 7:17pm DjLorraine: Fun
	7:17pm Roberto: What do you get when you liquefy a Fig Newton?
	♥ 7:18pm DjLorraine: Figgy pudding
	7:18pm Andres: Ahoy, spodi!
	7:18pm Joe B: Hearts, another Marty Balin hit!
	7:19pm Joe B: @Therese - irene 100% engineered the NP's, it was probably on her show. and she definitely had Neko on, possibly twice
	♥ 7:20pm steveo: wow didn't know that, Joe (re marty b)
	7:20pm taryninstereo: More about the New Pornographers: So the Canadians got Mass Romantic in 2000, but we got it here as a remastered release in 2003. My question to WFMU DJs: did you get your hands on this album before an official US release???
	♥ 7:21pm Tommy in Neversink: This show has taken a wonderful direction
	7:23pm phat: Hot damn. Mystery Train. Goddamn, what a song.
	7:24pm phat: Elvisu! Carl Perkinsu!
	7:24pm Therese: Maybe they played on Hova's show? I've always associated Mass Romantic with him.
	7:25pm Roberto: Oh my, Hova. His Hit Parade got me through many a day in the early '00s.
	7:26pm Joe Castrianni: It looks like they we’re on Rhubarb Cake with Douglas on March 8, 2001. https://wfmu.org/archiveplayer/?show=4556&archive=119698&starttime=
	7:27pm Joe B: @taryn - 'Letter' was an FMU 'hit' as far back as 1999 when it was on a Mint Records comp, then we got the CD from Mint, in 2000. Canadian label. Matador reissued it when the signed the band after that.
	7:27pm Therese: That makes sense! Thanks for doing the work, Joe C!
	7:27pm phat: Holy crap, this Charlie Rich.
	7:27pm Hope Chernov: Charlie Rich. Good lord
	7:28pm Therese: Also- hi Joe C! Hope all is well with you!
	7:28pm Joe B: hey Joe! yes that was the session, recorded February 2001. the night before they played in Philly on a bill with the Swingin' Neckbreakers
	♥ 7:29pm efd: @Joe B a show that you and I attended!
	7:29pm Joe B: Also, the NPs played on Brian Turner's show in 2005 for Twin Cinema
	7:29pm slugluv1313: DAMN this Charlie Rich! so good!
	♥ 7:29pm Yes: agreed on this charlie rich
	7:29pm Therese: I miss seeing EFD and Joes at shows!
	7:30pm Joe Castrianni: I picked up the Mint version of Mass Romantic at Other Music when it came out. It was one of the only spots to get it in the U.S.. so they couldn’t keep it on the shelves.
	7:30pm Joe B: @efd - yes! my sister was still in Havertown Pa at the time, she was there too
	7:31pm phat: Love is a barrel of dynamite!
	7:31pm phat: Lol
	♥ 7:31pm efd: Right! I was thinking there was someone else there!
	7:31pm Therese: Speaking of Other Music- the Guardian ran a nice piece on the OM documentary the other day: www.theguardian.com...
	♥ 7:31pm Stevel: Open use of the R(ascal) word.
	7:32pm Joe B: @efd - that was also the day Dale Earnhardt died. I'm not even a racing fan, but I remember it because one of the band members was upset, and I remember thinking, wow they must really like Nascar a lot. then I later found out one of their friends unrelated to auto racing had passed.
	♥ 7:32pm steveo: vampisoul rulez :)
	7:33pm phat: Never made it to Other Music, but I did co-host a radio show named after it.
	♥ 7:35pm chresti: A shy cat will warm up to you if you have chicken or tuna, etc.
	7:36pm Joe B: I remember all these details from a show from 20 years ago but can't remember any of my 2,000 passwords for anything
	7:37pm phat: @Joe B i was gonna say, you've got an interesting memory
	♥ 7:37pm chresti: If she sits on your lap, you are a hit.
	♥ 7:37pm Handy Haversack: I hear you, Joe B.
	♥ 7:37pm efd: @Joe ha! I do not remember the Dale Earnhardt thing at all!
	7:38pm Joe B: @efd - do you remember the name of that place? the restaurant downstairs, venue upstairs. in the 1980s it was called Revival, site of many awesome shows by Redd Kross, the Feelies, Screaming trees etc. the shows were on the first floor in those days.
	♥ 7:38pm efd: I hope that cat painting is still there! I haven't seen it with my own eyes in about 8 months.
	♥ 7:39pm Handy Haversack: I think we might have adopted the cat painting this year? I have had no updates. It's not like when you adopt a wolf.
	7:40pm Therese: Skeleton Olivia: can you confirm that the cat painting is still hanging in the foyer?
	7:42pm Andres: Hail to the bus driver!
	7:42pm taryninstereo: @Joe Thank you for clarifying! I was just starting HS and not hip to the scene yet. I honestly first heard of the band in 2004 when I joined the college radio station.
	♥ 7:42pm efd: @Joe I remember the setup, but not the name! For some reason I was thinking it had been a bank or a church or something, but I think I'm mixing it up with someplace else.
	7:43pm HyperDose: I thought Cheech was the bus driver
	7:43pm Joe B: maybe it was called The Bank at that point?
	7:44pm Joe Castrianni: @efd Was it Upstairs At Nick’s?
	♥ 7:45pm listener 126464: I remember going to Khyber Pass and another little bar on South for shows
	7:46pm Joe B: definitely was not upstairs at nick's
	♥ 7:46pm listener 126464: around that time
	7:46pm Joe B: @listener 126464 - J.C. Dobbs?
	7:47pm annette: sorry to spoil the party, but in these covid times had to share bit from M*SH: ya know what i want for chritmas ? i wanna forget. ....hope this bit helps our mental future. hugs and love.
	♥ 7:48pm listener 126464: @Joe B - I didn't make it there
	♥ 7:49pm steveo: i also knew the khyber; which i could remember who i saw there...
	♥ 7:50pm steveo: wish*
	♥ 7:50pm efd: @Joe B I think maybe it was called Upstage??
	♥ 7:50pm efd: MTV News story from Feb 2001: www.mtv.com...
	7:51pm Joe B: ah yes upstage! that is it!
	7:52pm Joe B: The Khyber was a great place for shows
	♥ 7:53pm steveo: my buddy Mike informs me it was the Dwarves
	♥ 7:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Joy to the skeletons in the empty station!
	7:54pm Roberto: I rewatched almost the entire run of MAS*H over the last year when my daughter discovered it on Hulu. Stuff I didn't realize or remember the first time around: there was originally a black doctor living in Hawkeye and Trapper's tent (the recently deceased Timothy Brown); and Alan Alda's father, Robert Alda, appeared on two episodes over the course of the series.
	♥ 7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Freakin' Little Richard.
	♥ 7:56pm radioronan: Thanks Therese..Thanks skeleton crew!
	♥ 7:56pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: TY LadyT ! TY Skellingtons.
	♥ 7:56pm efd: Great show as usual Therese!
	♥ 7:56pm listener 126464: Thank you Therese, thank you Ruth.
	♥ 7:56pm steveo: wonderful show -- thanks!
	7:56pm slugluv1313: i remember seeing Little Richard on TV, performing King of Rock and Roll -- but never heard his version of Joy to the World -- WOW! thanks Therese!
	♥ 7:56pm Pauly from Clifton: Thanks, Therese, Crew! I love cooking with FMU! Makes my Sunday.
	♥ 7:57pm spodiodi: thanks, Therese! thanks, Skeleton Crew!
	♥ 7:57pm DonJuanTijuana: Thx @Therese!!!
	♥ 7:57pm chresti: Thank you Therese! Enjoyed the show top to bottom!

	6:24pm Therese: @adamdoesit: she's probably wondering why you are ALWAYS HOME!
	6:26pm Therese: @Handy: Margaret is from the mean streets of Williamsburg.
	6:26pm pgalub: Hi Therese and Everybody!
	6:27pm Therese: Hey pgalub!
	♥ 6:27pm Handy Haversack: Nice! Pygian came out of the back yard. Voltron was living in the wheel well of a car parked by Prospect Park. Lulu is a Brooklynite but grew up in a deli -- pretty cush by comparison!
	♥ 6:28pm Woo: @Handy We had a calico that lived to 22. And she was an outdoor cat. I would cook little hamburgers for her.
	♥ 6:30pm Handy Haversack: Wow, Woo, that's amazing. Pygian seems determined to reach a ripe age. She's a great little cat. Super weird.
	♥ 6:30pm chresti: Hi adam, I've known a couple elderly siamese cats like that. One, Jaibo, had an over-active thyroid.
	6:31pm Joe B: loving that Special Pillow cover!
	6:32pm Therese: It's so good!
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: minks? i heard oregon has a mink problem now too.
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: zombie virus minks
	6:33pm Therese: I heard that, Spodiodi!
	♥ 6:33pm Handy Haversack: Apparently they weren't real zombies.
	♥ 6:33pm Stevel: How hard could it be to properly bury a zombie mink?
	♥ 6:33pm spodiodi: hi Handy, Ken, Joe B!
	6:34pm Roberto: Ugh, don't remind me. Can we freakin' ban that shite already? (needless mass murder of animals)
	♥ 6:35pm Handy Haversack: Hey, spod! All hail the Skeletons! Those are undead you can set your watch to!
	♥ 6:35pm spodiodi: i'm off the cookies :~(
	6:35pm Roberto: Brought to you by the country whose principal zoo kills its lions when there are too many of them.
	6:35pm Heath: Hi all, bless the skeleton crew
	♥ 6:35pm spodiodi: i need alt.treats
	♥ 6:36pm Asheville Jon: hahahaha, thanks for the ZOMBIE MINK info!!
	♥ 6:39pm suzyhotrod: Hi Therese! Extra extra support on that Ruth technical support cheer. I just had to help my mom setup her Zoom/video/microphone and I think I lost 1 year off my life.
	6:39pm Joe B: hey spodiodi!
	♥ 6:41pm Stevel: suzyhotrod: I recently inherited those duties when my sister moved out of the area. Thoughts and prayers.
	6:41pm HyperDose: Kitty! 😍
	♥ 6:41pm spodiodi: cheers to Ruth! i know what you mean, Suzy -- sounds about how i felt when i tried to teach my dad how to log in to windows (unsuccessfully, years ago)
	♥ 6:42pm spodiodi: lol Stevel
	♥ 6:43pm Rtintera: i love loma. so good
	6:44pm Therese: @Suzy- my parents have figured out Zoom, thankfully! But I once had to explain to my dad why I couldn't resize, color-correct and clean the scratches off of an old snapshot of my grandparents with the copy Microsoft Paint he had on his PC.
	♥ 6:45pm DonJuanTijuana: Hi @Therese..better late than never!
	♥ 6:50pm spodiodi: haha, Therese (MS Paint explanation) :)
	♥ 6:51pm Asheville Jon: nice on the Nesmith!
	♥ 6:54pm Handy Haversack: I'd settle for getting my sisters to understand that both Facebook and COVID weddings are bad.
	6:55pm Therese: Oh, families!
	6:55pm phat: Thank you for the First National Band
	6:59pm Joe B: yeah Marty!
	♥ 7:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: If kiity's name was And Margaret that would rawk.
	7:00pm phat: Oh damn, I think this is my favorite Jefferson Starship tune. It's ridiculous, but I love it.
	7:01pm Joe B: great single edit. album version is more than double the length
	7:01pm phat: This is the Balinist of all recordings.
	♥ 7:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's Marty Balin. Not a thing wrong with it.
	♥ 7:02pm Gaylord Fields: I've always loved this Starship song, especially the single edit, as Joe B points out.
	7:02pm phat: It's just so Balin, and 1970s. Just so...
	7:03pm Hope Chernov: dayum Therese, this is it
	♥ 7:03pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: It's smooth - but not slick. Well - there is Slick...
	7:03pm Therese: @Joe B & Gaylord: it's on the Bob Stanley comp that was in the New Bin a month or so back.
	7:03pm Joe B: I missed that comp, thanks for the heads up
	♥ 7:03pm Gaylord Fields: Thanks, Therese! I missed that comp in the New Bin.
	7:04pm Joe B: also, this was the one jefferson starship song that was played at the jefferson airplane 1989 reunion tour show I attended
	♥ 7:07pm Franco Twinkie: Miracles will always remind me of a grey afternoon at the laundromat in San Francisco during the summer of 1975.
	♥ 7:07pm DjLorraine: Whoops
	7:07pm ?: I also had a roast chicken
	7:08pm tracy in LA: me too therese...roast chicken And getting to know my foster cat...these things take time...
	♥ 7:09pm Franco Twinkie: We had a chicken/vegetable pie, and we're about to have another.
	7:10pm Roberto: Aww, she'll warm up to you eventually. Probably.
	7:10pm slugluv1313: good evening, Therese and MARGARET! please give her cuddles for me :) hello to Skeletons, Everyone! been listening mostly in lurk mode -- how cool to FINALLY finish vacuuming and to hear "Miracles" -- and be instantly transported back 40+ years to high school art class -- we played LPs during class and "Red Octopus" was a huge favorite :)
	♥ 7:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: Cat food needs to come in pie form.
	7:12pm phat: That chord progression still makes me dizzy.
	7:12pm alan the painter: Therese, that was an affectionate gesture by the cat, even biting, rambunctious kisses.
	♥ 7:12pm DjLorraine: Miracles nice
	7:12pm phat: New Pornographers, that is.
	7:12pm taryninstereo: I can’t believe how old this album really is!!!
	7:14pm Joe B: they played at FMU around then
	7:14pm Joe B: and did not play this song!
	7:14pm Andres: Evening Therese and all! That Brubeck story was great! I would nonetheless like to hear the story of the born city slicker who became the greatest selling cowpoke of all time.
	7:15pm slugluv1313: @Roberto -- AGREED! re: senseless murder of others (like here in NJ, the second half of the bear hunt is about to begin -- UGH)
	7:15pm herb.nyc: Mass Romantic cd is my wife. No joke. My neice was getting married in 2009. But I’m single, so I said “Lisa, I’ll lose face if you marry before me”. So an ordained via internet pastor married me to the cd, 3 days before Lisa’s big day. Whew!
	7:15pm PMD: Juice!
	♥ 7:15pm steveo: Juice! Haven't heard this one in ages. (Hi!)
	7:15pm Therese: @Joe- I think they played on Irene's show? Or maybe that was Neko Case solo...
	7:15pm phat: Oh no! I had this Juice Newton 7 inch. I wonder if I still have that lying around?
	♥ 7:15pm spodiodi: aloha, Andres!
	7:16pm Hope Chernov: Therese you are taking me down
	7:16pm PMD: We would always sing this song when playing hearts
	♥ 7:17pm DjLorraine: Fun
	7:17pm Roberto: What do you get when you liquefy a Fig Newton?
	♥ 7:18pm DjLorraine: Figgy pudding
	7:18pm Andres: Ahoy, spodi!
	7:18pm Joe B: Hearts, another Marty Balin hit!
	7:19pm Joe B: @Therese - irene 100% engineered the NP's, it was probably on her show. and she definitely had Neko on, possibly twice
	♥ 7:20pm steveo: wow didn't know that, Joe (re marty b)
	7:20pm taryninstereo: More about the New Pornographers: So the Canadians got Mass Romantic in 2000, but we got it here as a remastered release in 2003. My question to WFMU DJs: did you get your hands on this album before an official US release???
	♥ 7:21pm Tommy in Neversink: This show has taken a wonderful direction
	7:23pm phat: Hot damn. Mystery Train. Goddamn, what a song.
	7:24pm phat: Elvisu! Carl Perkinsu!
	7:24pm Therese: Maybe they played on Hova's show? I've always associated Mass Romantic with him.
	7:25pm Roberto: Oh my, Hova. His Hit Parade got me through many a day in the early '00s.
	7:26pm Joe Castrianni: It looks like they we’re on Rhubarb Cake with Douglas on March 8, 2001. https://wfmu.org/archiveplayer/?show=4556&archive=119698&starttime=
	7:27pm Joe B: @taryn - 'Letter' was an FMU 'hit' as far back as 1999 when it was on a Mint Records comp, then we got the CD from Mint, in 2000. Canadian label. Matador reissued it when the signed the band after that.
	7:27pm Therese: That makes sense! Thanks for doing the work, Joe C!
	7:27pm phat: Holy crap, this Charlie Rich.
	7:27pm Hope Chernov: Charlie Rich. Good lord
	7:28pm Therese: Also- hi Joe C! Hope all is well with you!
	7:28pm Joe B: hey Joe! yes that was the session, recorded February 2001. the night before they played in Philly on a bill with the Swingin' Neckbreakers
	♥ 7:29pm efd: @Joe B a show that you and I attended!
	7:29pm Joe B: Also, the NPs played on Brian Turner's show in 2005 for Twin Cinema
	7:29pm slugluv1313: DAMN this Charlie Rich! so good!
	♥ 7:29pm Yes: agreed on this charlie rich
	7:29pm Therese: I miss seeing EFD and Joes at shows!
	7:30pm Joe Castrianni: I picked up the Mint version of Mass Romantic at Other Music when it came out. It was one of the only spots to get it in the U.S.. so they couldn’t keep it on the shelves.
	7:30pm Joe B: @efd - yes! my sister was still in Havertown Pa at the time, she was there too
	7:31pm phat: Love is a barrel of dynamite!
	7:31pm phat: Lol
	♥ 7:31pm efd: Right! I was thinking there was someone else there!
	7:31pm Therese: Speaking of Other Music- the Guardian ran a nice piece on the OM documentary the other day: www.theguardian.com...
	♥ 7:31pm Stevel: Open use of the R(ascal) word.
	7:32pm Joe B: @efd - that was also the day Dale Earnhardt died. I'm not even a racing fan, but I remember it because one of the band members was upset, and I remember thinking, wow they must really like Nascar a lot. then I later found out one of their friends unrelated to auto racing had passed.
	♥ 7:32pm steveo: vampisoul rulez :)
	7:33pm phat: Never made it to Other Music, but I did co-host a radio show named after it.
	♥ 7:35pm chresti: A shy cat will warm up to you if you have chicken or tuna, etc.
	7:36pm Joe B: I remember all these details from a show from 20 years ago but can't remember any of my 2,000 passwords for anything
	7:37pm phat: @Joe B i was gonna say, you've got an interesting memory
	♥ 7:37pm chresti: If she sits on your lap, you are a hit.
	♥ 7:37pm Handy Haversack: I hear you, Joe B.
	♥ 7:37pm efd: @Joe ha! I do not remember the Dale Earnhardt thing at all!
	7:38pm Joe B: @efd - do you remember the name of that place? the restaurant downstairs, venue upstairs. in the 1980s it was called Revival, site of many awesome shows by Redd Kross, the Feelies, Screaming trees etc. the shows were on the first floor in those days.
	♥ 7:38pm efd: I hope that cat painting is still there! I haven't seen it with my own eyes in about 8 months.
	♥ 7:39pm Handy Haversack: I think we might have adopted the cat painting this year? I have had no updates. It's not like when you adopt a wolf.
	7:40pm Therese: Skeleton Olivia: can you confirm that the cat painting is still hanging in the foyer?
	7:42pm Andres: Hail to the bus driver!
	7:42pm taryninstereo: @Joe Thank you for clarifying! I was just starting HS and not hip to the scene yet. I honestly first heard of the band in 2004 when I joined the college radio station.
	♥ 7:42pm efd: @Joe I remember the setup, but not the name! For some reason I was thinking it had been a bank or a church or something, but I think I'm mixing it up with someplace else.
	7:43pm HyperDose: I thought Cheech was the bus driver
	7:43pm Joe B: maybe it was called The Bank at that point?
	7:44pm Joe Castrianni: @efd Was it Upstairs At Nick’s?
	♥ 7:45pm listener 126464: I remember going to Khyber Pass and another little bar on South for shows
	7:46pm Joe B: definitely was not upstairs at nick's
	♥ 7:46pm listener 126464: around that time
	7:46pm Joe B: @listener 126464 - J.C. Dobbs?
	7:47pm annette: sorry to spoil the party, but in these covid times had to share bit from M*SH: ya know what i want for chritmas ? i wanna forget. ....hope this bit helps our mental future. hugs and love.
	♥ 7:48pm listener 126464: @Joe B - I didn't make it there
	♥ 7:49pm steveo: i also knew the khyber; which i could remember who i saw there...
	♥ 7:50pm steveo: wish*
	♥ 7:50pm efd: @Joe B I think maybe it was called Upstage??
	♥ 7:50pm efd: MTV News story from Feb 2001: www.mtv.com...
	7:51pm Joe B: ah yes upstage! that is it!
	7:52pm Joe B: The Khyber was a great place for shows
	♥ 7:53pm steveo: my buddy Mike informs me it was the Dwarves
	♥ 7:54pm Ken From Hyde Park: Joy to the skeletons in the empty station!
	7:54pm Roberto: I rewatched almost the entire run of MAS*H over the last year when my daughter discovered it on Hulu. Stuff I didn't realize or remember the first time around: there was originally a black doctor living in Hawkeye and Trapper's tent (the recently deceased Timothy Brown); and Alan Alda's father, Robert Alda, appeared on two episodes over the course of the series.
	♥ 7:54pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Freakin' Little Richard.
