	12:02pm HyperDose: Pop! Here we are =]
	12:02pm Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	12:02pm Andres: Hey, Pseu! Hooks, yay!
	12:03pm egould310: Something something hook. Some something invention.
	12:03pm Docrock: Good afternoon Pseu and all who are listening. It’s a beautiful day here in Da Bronx!
	12:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The second biggest event of this week has begun.
	12:04pm HyperDose: I don't know. Pseu seems pretty presidential to me with that sharp tongue and quick wit!
	12:05pm Chop Scott: Good Afternoon Pseu!
	12:05pm Gaylord Fields: No better place for my ears, head, and heart to be than with Pseu today.
	12:06pm eastvanhalen: Hey Pseu! Hey all!
	12:06pm wendy del formaggio: Pseu!
	12:06pm KlausVonB: And now for even more a sense of feelin' hopeful today. Pseu's Thing w/ a Hook!
	12:07pm Planet Tyler: Yay Besnard Lakes!
	12:08pm mndave: Hi Pseu! Just noting that The Besnard Lakes at the Black Cat Red Room in 2012 was the bone-jarringly loudest show I have been to in my lifetime.
	12:08pm West Trenton Vinnie: Yaaaahhhhhhsssss....
	12:08pm Dennis Diken: hey Pseu and all, diggin'!
	12:08pm Mike in S. Jersey: I'm with Todd-o-phonic Todd -- I really need TWAH today.
	12:08pm JohnEBGood: Happy Thirsty Thursday All 🥤
	12:09pm chris_in_space: It's a new day! Good to be here with you @Pseu and Hookers.
	12:10pm Bill in W.O.: Hi Pseu! I need to go back on INDUSTRY GIANTS, didn't get into it at the time. The Lees of Memory have done some cool stuff more recently.
	12:10pm Krys O.: Good afternoon!
	12:11pm Michael Shelley: Greetings all!
	12:11pm chris_in_space: @mndave the loudest show I ever witnessed was without a doubt Sunn O))). They made My Bloody Valentine seem like pretenders.
	12:13pm Pseu Braun: 'Afternoon Hookers and friends.
	12:13pm Planet Tyler: If y'all havent heard this great Besnard Lakes - "And this is what we call progress" - very recommend www.youtube.com...
	12:13pm HyperDose: @chris_in_space I tried to get one of their limited edition Earthquaker pedals. There were 4 or 5 drops I think, each one sold out in minutes!
	12:13pm mndave: @chris_in_space I can only imagine... TBL caught me off-guard even with plugs in. Honorable mention goes to Holly Herndon rearranging my internal organs a few months later.
	12:13pm Gaylord Fields: Wow! THE Tony Burrows — the five-time one-hit wonder!
	12:16pm Krys O.: I seem to recall Dawn Eden interviewed Burrows.
	12:18pm chris_in_space: @HyperDose: cool. First I've heard of those limited Earthquaker Sunn pedals. Guess I'll never have one. @mndave: That would catch me off guard as well. I can't believe I used to go to shows in my early 20s without even thinking to bring plugs, as if such volume was a normal thing in life.
	12:20pm Nat the Listener: You can run and you can hide But you can't escape my love
	12:21pm Planet Tyler: Loudest shows: And You Will KNow Us By the Trail of Dead and Stereolab
	12:21pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	12:21pm HyperDose: @chris_in_space $70 markup on Reverb ain't bad, just hard to justify purchasing a $500 pedal. At least we have other options.
	12:23pm Andres: Re. internal organ rearrangement - kick drums through the bass bins at festival shows. Hate it! A feeling verging on literal heart stopping.
	12:23pm West Trenton Vinnie: @PT, AYWKUBTTOD fer shure
	12:25pm Krys O.: Killing Joke at Fillmore East in 2008 not only rearranged my internal organs, but caused me to levitate on the decibel level.
	12:27pm Andres: 25% Can Con so far. Exceeding CRTC regulations. Nice.
	12:27pm Gaylord Fields: MBV at ATP: The earplugs! They do nothing!
	12:30pm luka: loudest band i've seen in recent memory was Nothing at Sub-T in chicago 5-6 years ago. good lord.
	12:30pm clarke: agree, JJ - MBV - loudest ever. period.
	12:30pm Hughie Considine: MBV's opening acts like Dinosaur Jr. and Screaming Trees, were also incredibly loud.
	12:31pm listener 126464: Hi Pseu, everyone. Apples In Stereo- loudest
	12:31pm queems: i turned the radio up for the enrique and then east up for the pinback
	12:32pm Ike: Ah, finally, somebody is putting voice to the mood I've been in! I couldn't articulate it, but Pseu is saying what I've been thinking.
	12:32pm the Master: Nothing louder than Sun O)))
	12:33pm ottovonbqe: I want to be overjoyed that I no longer have an orange man tormenting me day after day, but I can't because "those people" are still out there!!!
	12:33pm clarke: The Sound Machine is coming down and we're gonna have a party hey heeeeyaaay!!
	12:34pm luka: Besnards like to play loud, too. bless them.
	12:34pm Hughie Considine: Mit der Hook
	12:34pm latinXcape: I'm with you Pseu! People can be ugly, esp when they loose, and more esp when they have guns.
	12:35pm Listener Robert: I'm probably one of those people you're warning us about, but your kvetching, as always, is adorable.
	12:35pm latinXcape: Vent!
	12:35pm thatpatsmith: Love to Pseu and All. Beauty is Truth
	12:35pm luka: that's barfin loud!
	12:35pm chris_in_space: I'm telling you, Sunn O))), for better or worse, are MUCH louder than MBV.
	12:35pm KlausVonB: agreed MBV at Roseland back in the day was beyond intense
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: To Genesis P'orridge, people puking was like a standing ovation.
	12:36pm Jeremy: Sunn O))) rearranged my guts at Moogfest a few years ago.
	12:36pm Jay in Boston: the most deafening show i ever saw was mogwai in 2006. it felt like someone was jabbing a pen in my ear
	12:36pm Spankyflop: My ears are still ringing from a Dinosaur Jr. show 25 years ago.
	12:36pm Hughie Considine: I've seen MBV and Sunn O))) - MBV were louder. MBV hurt more.
	12:36pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): A friend of mine saw Sunn O))) in a small hall somewhere. They started and about 15 seconds in they blew the main breaker in the building. Yow!
	12:36pm KWilde: Hey Pseu and fellow listeners!
	12:37pm joe mulligan: I love how MBV has the title for loudest show. the other I've heard is a place to bury strangers. I haven't seen either though so can't confirm
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: Always loved this one, Pseu.
	12:38pm Krys O.: 'Those people' have unfortunately been around for a long time. Do your best to fight white nationalists, fascists, and domestic terrorists. Oh, and thanks for the Jona Lewie!
	12:38pm clarke: the difference is that MBV actually have Songs.
	12:39pm chris_in_space: @clarke, ha, still debatable, but your point is a good one
	12:39pm Gaylord Fields: As Pseu recalls, that MBV show was like being jabbed nonstop with fungo bats throughout your body by the starting 9 of a major league baseball team, with no possible escape. Body aches ensued, and I checked for bruises afterwards.
	12:39pm egould310: Fugazi at the Newport Theater, Columbus, OH. October 1990? The freaking loudest show ever. For a band that was using dynamics on their recordings; that night it was just loud ad hell. Nauseatingly loud. Permanent hearing loss loud.
	12:39pm Jason from Houston: Here to say Wolf Eyes in a medium sized venue was close to "I may need to leave" scary. Even with good earplugs...
	12:40pm Hughie Considine: I didn't want to say it, clarke. That is a key difference. Then again, MBV didn't have monk habits.
	12:40pm clarke: mister hunsecker says you sweat!
	12:40pm Andres: Nels Cline band festival set closer I saw had peoples heads down on picnic tables covering their ears. Because it was that good!
	12:40pm Chop Scott: MBV at ATP was insanely loud--the room at Kutcher's felt like it was going to lift off.
	12:40pm Stephen: Motörhead at the place in Old Bridge. W the Supersuckers. He dropped his guitar on the floor at the end of the set and walked off stage for entire break until encore with feedback just grinding down everyone’s teeth. Don’t think it was Fast Eddie though
	12:41pm Gaylord Fields: @clarke: With my Jersey City brains?
	12:42pm Krys O.: Breet! Such a nice guy. He just had a birthday on January 11th.
	12:44pm clarke: a cookie full of arsenic, Fields!!
	12:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: MBV weren't too quiet at Maxwell's either, but I think Dinosaur Jr. may have topped them.
	12:47pm Hoboken Pete: Tough to know who was loudest that I saw, but MBV, Dinosaur Jr, and Motorhead were at the top of my list. Also Boris was pretty thumping..
	12:50pm Dennis Diken: nice to hear The Breetles. geez, I started playing with Chris Breetveld in...gulp...1978!
	12:51pm mb: G'afternoon peeps. Pseu Pseu!
	12:52pm Pseu Braun: can't even imagine mbv playing maxwells. At the stadium volumes, that entire block of washington street would have collapsed.
	12:52pm Krys O.: Yowza, Dennis!
	12:57pm p/b: Hi FMUworld and the Devine Miss Pseu - dealing with some shite but all here and LOVE this Dire Straits cover, sounds beautiful. Always loved this song, used to make me cry, one of those. Don't tell anyone
	12:57pm West Trenton Vinnie: weekly my cat falls into a trance watching this column scroll, occasionally striking at the screen
	12:58pm Hoboken Pete: I love that this cover by widowspeak is getting a lot of airtime on this station.
	1:00pm steveo: oh well now this is Pseu isn't it. i'm not sure that set was very hooky, but i enjoyed it nonetheless
	1:00pm Listener Paul: Loud shows: John Zorn at the Painted Bride in Philly in the late 80s was painful. And though it probably wasn't loud for everyone, for some reason I stood right next to the speakers at a Stevie Ray Vaughn/Marshall Crenshaw/Dave Edmunds show at Convention Hall in Asbury Park and probably did some damage that night.
	1:04pm Stevel: Pseu: You're speaking my mind today. Thank you.
	1:05pm joe mulligan: @Paul that must have been his Naked City outfit? My loudest was the Swans at club revival philly during their children of god tour around '88 or '89. so loud they blew the power out during the show and that's where I got tinnitus. Damn you Michael Gira!
	1:05pm treehugger: YES! YES! YES! Dire Straits is so horrible!!! Good cover, however.
	1:05pm myron feld: Todd was a Maxwell's macher.
	1:05pm efd: maybe "macher" is the word you're thinking of?
	1:05pm efd: see myron knows what's up
	1:06pm PortsmouthJay: I saw Magnetic Fields at Brownie's in 1995.
	1:06pm Listener Paul: It was Naked City.
	1:06pm PortsmouthJay: I saw Air Miami at Brownie's in 1994.
	1:06pm joe mulligan: @Paul yeah there was a lotta screechin and a screamin then!
	1:07pm HyperDose: Live loud is annoying, but the production "loudness wars" is a whole different level of sacrilege.
	1:07pm Roberto: Married for appearances' sakes.
	1:07pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hi Pseu! The loudest band I saw was Blue Cheer at the Fillmore East NYC April 1968
	1:07pm luka: lesbian tendencies
	1:07pm Listener Paul: I think the fact that it was promoted as being extremely loud was a big part of my reason for going. To be young and stupid....
	1:08pm luka: don't miss
	1:08pm HyperDose: many men in her past...
	1:08pm luka: the Party Girls
	1:12pm Deborah: Two minute break from all day/evening meetings. Looks like I am missing a fabulous show. Archive time!
	1:14pm Pseu Braun: Macher, thanks myron and evan
	1:16pm Michael Shelley: I once opened for Dino Jr @ CBGB - without doubt: loudest band I ever saw. Guitar was so loud - couldnt hear the snare drum.
	1:16pm West Trenton Vinnie: conversely, tragic death aside, Elliott Smith was barely amplified last I saw him perform, seemed as intentional artistically as a blaring barrage
	1:20pm Niall: Ah, East River Pipe. Williamsburg's first ambassador.
	1:21pm Hughie Considine: Also, Mr. Cornog is the only writer I know of to salute my hometown of Tenafly in song, in "Down 42nd Street to the Light."
	1:23pm Niall: Joe Mulligan: you're in good company with my friends, most of who've asserted that Swans played the loudest shows they'd attended (My Bloody Valentine has almost as many votes). For me, it was Marianne Amacher in 1999. Instant tinnitus and nausea.
	1:24pm Ike: That screeching and "now wait a minute" are also sampled in The Orb's "Toxygene" from 1997. But I'm still not sure where it's from. Cary Grant maybe?
	1:24pm PortsmouthJay: Choose one if it could come back: Luna Lounge, CBGBs, TONIC, Brownies, or The Cooler.
	1:25pm R. Noel Fox: Hulllooooo everyone.
	1:25pm clarke: i'm running out of alibi's.
	1:26pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I was just walking on a chilly but clear Long Branch, NJ beach listening to this show :-)
	1:27pm Dennis Diken: Lindisfarne, yes!
	1:28pm Krys O.: I have fond memories of Tonic, Portsmouth Jay. They get my vote.
	1:29pm steveo: i just saw a pair of redfinches!
	1:29pm clarke: Maxwell's!!!!
	1:30pm steveo: redfinches are the loudest band at maxwells!
	1:30pm clarke: (as far as treatment of bands - maxwell's by far was tops - as well as diverse great booking, of course).
	1:31pm R. Noel Fox: Regards to loud shows, I saw Swans a few times at Warsaw. The last time they played, I sat in a chair on the balcony, and was soon after swamped by annoying normies for the opener. Then Swans started playing a goddamn wall of sound, and it totally emptied out. I was pleased.
	1:31pm mb: Gotta go with Boris being the loudest band i've witnessed. Had to walk out. Also dearly miss Tonic. Was my intro to the Zorn world and that book shop led me to the Free Jazz world via a pamphlet by Cooper-Moore.
	1:32pm R. Noel Fox: Krys - Yes, I was going to suggest Tonic as well!
	1:33pm Roberto: Wow, very un-STP-sounding STP here.
	1:34pm Barkevious Shabazz: Loudest-Nick Cave first US tour. Also, saw Deerhunter and show was completely ruined by volume. Insanely, dopey loud.
	1:35pm Cumbia Phil: Great show again!
	1:36pm carrots: Thank You!
	1:36pm Gaylord Fields: East River Pipe wrote a an entire album inspired by Route 22. That, among other things, makes FM Cornog a musical hero in my estimation.
	1:39pm Krys O.: Richard Hell was the best part of the movie Smithereens.
	1:40pm Krys O.: Besides the Feelies score, I should add.
	1:42pm captain beef fart: Hi, Pseu
	1:42pm sufferwords: i’m below average- yet equal
	1:43pm Juli: Hello hello
	1:43pm StRts: Hi from Athens/Gr.. :)
	1:44pm Andres: Besides the hooks, I am here for the mic breaks. Thank you. Clod on!
	1:44pm Piker62: I'm with Andres. Not literally, I have no idea where he is
	1:44pm Morgan: hi pseu and listeners
	1:44pm Travisano66: Hello, All! Philip Travisano checking in from Portland, Oregon. Listened to WFMU from 1990 to 1995, then listened from the SF Bay Area for the following 22 years, and now I'm here. I was happy to design Pseu's bright yellow SoCal style promotional T-shirt.
	1:45pm luka: well, this is delightful.
	1:45pm Krys O.: Listening at work here in chilly Roseland and trying to fight sleep deprivation.
	1:45pm Pseu Braun: HELLO PEOPLE (and listener Travisano you card!)
	1:45pm Travisano66: I'm a card!
	1:46pm royvis: Good afternoon Pseu, DJ WR, and everyone!
	1:46pm Pseu Braun: ROYVISSSSS
	1:47pm Piker62: This song is refreshing
	1:47pm Joey joe joe: @travisano66–awesome shirt! Definitely one of my top favorites from my deep woof-moo shirt collection.
	1:48pm Jason from Houston: Totally thirsty now...
	1:51pm WO Town Wick: Catching up and concur on Dino Jr as loudest. Assault-y loud
	1:56pm Piker62: The Sugarplastic remains my loudest club band experience.
	1:57pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello everybody! Another marvelous Hook Thang in progress.
	1:58pm bbob: All this Hookin makin' me ITCH~!
	2:01pm Pseu Braun: Welcome to the loudness, B-Bob!
	2:09pm egould310: Well ain’t this just the jangliest song of the day? Sounding teal good. Thanks, Pseu!
	2:09pm scott: Jimmy said that PFS was following him in his car after a party and then suddenly disappeared, and so this song.
	2:15pm Bill in W.O.: I used to be on the Parasol Records mailing list. That's been awhile back now. If they still did that maybe I wouldn't have totally missed the Velvet Crush shows in the Northeast in 2019. Bastards.
	2:19pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡
	2:19pm Jason from Houston: Love y'all...
	2:20pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I saw Velvet Crush in July, 2019 at its reunion show in Providence. At the time, they expressed interest in playing some more gigs in 2020....then COVID :-(
	2:22pm captain beef fart: Dino Jr. at the old Hammerjacks here in Baltimore was pretty loud but my loudest concert experience was standing directly in front of a giant speaker at a Pixies reunion tour concert. Sound felt like wind.
	2:22pm Andres: If there are only 40 minutes left then I have been cleaning up after these cats for longer than I thought. They are cute but slobby.
	2:22pm Pseu Braun: VC is not good at social media despite my following...never knew of the gigs until a week after.
	2:24pm eastvanhalen: CanCon!
	2:24pm Pseu Braun: lotsa can con!
	2:24pm The Oscar: Busy working, but it always makes me happy to hear something off the Brain Candy soundtrack :)
	2:26pm Dennis Diken: P.F. Sloan is very much missed. a true eccentric but a sweet man and a gifted writer. one of my faves of all time. Todd, do you still have the cassette of that interview we did with him in '85? I'd love to hear that!
	2:27pm Rick from SC: @ the Oscar I'd forgotten what a great soundtrack Brain Candy had
	2:28pm Dano59: Yeah! Odds. Great guys. Got to introduce them at a. show in Waterloo ON
	2:28pm Bill in W.O.: @Jeff, that's actually encouraging news. And jealous you saw that show. Great?
	2:29pm Dano59: "when I invented Stummies..." the Pharma CEO was Terry McKinney's take on Lorne Michaels
	2:30pm Mike Sin: Was able to get my "ear goggles" on and join in right when you were playing Velvet Crush. It made me think back to the times I saw them live back in ye 1990s. Saw them twice at Maxwell's in Hoboken. Man, those show were fun. I was such a fan!
	2:31pm Dano59: new Matthew!
	2:31pm Beanz: Good day, Good Tunes .
	2:32pm Krys O.: Dialog from Brain Candy still pop into my head. Like it's 72 degrees in your head all the time.... BTW-It was Mark McKinney.
	2:33pm Bill in W.O.: Was just reading an interview with Mr. Sweet about his new record. He said it's his first where he plays all the guitar heard on the record, which maybe stupidly was a surprise to me. It's not like he's incapable. It's nice to have guitar ace friends, but he's got a sound himself.
	2:34pm captain beef fart: so I hear dad's dead. hey, is that egg nog?
	2:36pm R. Noel Fox: I saw the most TERRIBLE screening of Brain Candy a few years ago. It was the original cut, with a bunch of unseen scenes, but the video was from some digital copy that degraded every time they played it. It was like watching a video on the internet in 1995, blown up for a screen. I can't understand why they didnt' just transfer it to a different format, and just splice in the shitty missing scenes to a good copy of the film. But it was hosted by Kevin McDonald, so that was cool.
	2:36pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Pseu and all the listeners! I can't listen properly right now because I'm teaching the children (remotely). I'm bummed because the setlist looks awesome! Thanks for fighting the good fight.
	2:37pm Dano59: yes, Krys, thanks ... Bruce McCulloch's Doors song also pops into my head.
	2:37pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes, this is egg nog. How did you know?!
	2:37pm Krys O.: Dang, Fox. That sounds irritating. I had a VHS copy of Brain Candy and someone I loaned it to kept it.
	2:38pm Fletchernyc: OH OK!!!!!!!
	2:38pm Fletchernyc: Thanks Pseu!!
	2:38pm Krys O.: Goodness gracious, someone is selling a DVD of Brain Candy for $100!
	2:39pm Gaylord Fields: And that "Brother" is … Michael Stipe! (The More You Know — swoosh)
	2:39pm Krys O.: Thanks for this, Pseu. It's been ages....
	2:39pm Dano59: don't know this Lio. what era of Ze was this? late 80s?
	2:39pm ClaireLE: Exactly what I was going to say, Fletcher! Oh OK!
	2:40pm Pseu Braun: en.wikipedia.org... @Dano59
	2:40pm Dano59: I doubt I have Brain Candy other than the soundtrack. Will have to look.
	2:41pm Krys O.: Viva la Doors! I have Shame Based Man on CD. Phew!
	2:42pm Dano59: merci, Pseu. 1986.
	2:43pm myron feld: This Cyrkle cut is fantastic! And the movie it's from features a whole lotta people I never heard of (other than Jan Sterling).
	2:43pm Mike Sin: Re: "Murray the why" I've listened to the soundtrack to this x-rated movie about a hundred times but have never seen the movie! For those in the know, is it worth checking out? Will I be scandalized? Will I end up clutching my pearls? ;)
	2:44pm Dano59: mike, if you can handle Beyond the Valley of the Doils, you'll probably be OK.
	2:44pm Mike Sin: @Dano59 - Thanks!
	2:45pm HyperDose: @Dano there was a sequel?
	2:45pm clarke: but the pearls should ALWAYS be clutched!!
	2:47pm Lixiviated Life: "Nurse! This patients back announce is inflamed! Get her 6 ml Jameson. STAT!"
	2:48pm clarke: matt sweet is not on the OhOk album, but could be on demo's. he was in Buzz Of Delight when they recorded the album - joined OhOK later
	2:50pm Gaylord Fields: Pseu, here's the corrected version: And that "Brother" is Oh OK's Lynda Stype's guest host Michael Stype guest hosting as brother.
	2:51pm Bill in W.O.: That interview I saw - for after the show and stuff variety.com...
	2:51pm Gaylord Fields: or however you spell "Stipe"
	2:52pm The Oscar: This conversation may have inspired me to order a (very weird) double feature DVD of Brain Candy and Back to the Beach just now.
	2:52pm Lixiviated Life: I realize 6 ml Jameson is like not even 1/4 oz. I meant to type 60 ml but I guess its too late now. "I'm sorry doctor, the patient has succumb to chronic back announce. " "Damn it nurse! I'm a doctor not a bartender!"
	2:52pm Pseu Braun: @gaylord lulz. Lylz
	2:53pm Krys O.: Thank you for your attention to your radio show, Pseu. We, as a nation of WFMU listeners, are forever in your debt. Be well, everyone. Oh, I just learned the the iconic Roxy Florist building in Bloomfield Center was demolished. A tragic fire destroyed the bulding about a year ago. They had a fabulous prominent Art Deco neon sign. www.tapinto.net...
	2:53pm TVP: Date a woman once who was a big Kids in the Hall fan. We would quote the "worms to ex-girlfriends" scene to each other constantly.
	2:53pm clarke: you mean you don't want the free gift of a colorful giant map of the world?!?
	2:56pm Andres: Thank you, Pseu, for the hooks, mic breaks and Can Con!
	2:56pm clarke: sidney dear, if you feel nervous.... Members of The Pseu Nation applaud this here shew!!
	2:59pm HyperDose: Thanks Pseu!
	2:59pm KlausVonB: thank you for all the ear delights
	2:59pm vinylmonkee: Thanks Pseu & Crew!
	3:00pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Thank you Psue
	3:01pm dk50b: Saw KITH at The Bottom Line early 80's and Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet at Maxwell's 1986
	3:01pm mb: Thanks Pseu! Be good to yourself. Cheers peeps and skells!

Listener comments!
	12:02pm HyperDose: Pop! Here we are =]
	12:02pm Jason from Houston: ꒰｡•‿•｡꒱
	12:02pm Andres: Hey, Pseu! Hooks, yay!
	12:03pm egould310: Something something hook. Some something invention.
	12:03pm Docrock: Good afternoon Pseu and all who are listening. It’s a beautiful day here in Da Bronx!
	12:03pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: The second biggest event of this week has begun.
	12:04pm HyperDose: I don't know. Pseu seems pretty presidential to me with that sharp tongue and quick wit!
	12:05pm Chop Scott: Good Afternoon Pseu!
	12:05pm Gaylord Fields: No better place for my ears, head, and heart to be than with Pseu today.
	12:06pm eastvanhalen: Hey Pseu! Hey all!
	12:06pm wendy del formaggio: Pseu!
	12:06pm KlausVonB: And now for even more a sense of feelin' hopeful today. Pseu's Thing w/ a Hook!
	12:07pm Planet Tyler: Yay Besnard Lakes!
	12:08pm mndave: Hi Pseu! Just noting that The Besnard Lakes at the Black Cat Red Room in 2012 was the bone-jarringly loudest show I have been to in my lifetime.
	12:08pm West Trenton Vinnie: Yaaaahhhhhhsssss....
	12:08pm Dennis Diken: hey Pseu and all, diggin'!
	12:08pm Mike in S. Jersey: I'm with Todd-o-phonic Todd -- I really need TWAH today.
	12:08pm JohnEBGood: Happy Thirsty Thursday All 🥤
	12:09pm chris_in_space: It's a new day! Good to be here with you @Pseu and Hookers.
	12:10pm Bill in W.O.: Hi Pseu! I need to go back on INDUSTRY GIANTS, didn't get into it at the time. The Lees of Memory have done some cool stuff more recently.
	12:10pm Krys O.: Good afternoon!
	12:11pm Michael Shelley: Greetings all!
	12:11pm chris_in_space: @mndave the loudest show I ever witnessed was without a doubt Sunn O))). They made My Bloody Valentine seem like pretenders.
	12:13pm Pseu Braun: 'Afternoon Hookers and friends.
	12:13pm Planet Tyler: If y'all havent heard this great Besnard Lakes - "And this is what we call progress" - very recommend www.youtube.com...
	12:13pm HyperDose: @chris_in_space I tried to get one of their limited edition Earthquaker pedals. There were 4 or 5 drops I think, each one sold out in minutes!
	12:13pm mndave: @chris_in_space I can only imagine... TBL caught me off-guard even with plugs in. Honorable mention goes to Holly Herndon rearranging my internal organs a few months later.
	12:13pm Gaylord Fields: Wow! THE Tony Burrows — the five-time one-hit wonder!
	12:16pm Krys O.: I seem to recall Dawn Eden interviewed Burrows.
	12:18pm chris_in_space: @HyperDose: cool. First I've heard of those limited Earthquaker Sunn pedals. Guess I'll never have one. @mndave: That would catch me off guard as well. I can't believe I used to go to shows in my early 20s without even thinking to bring plugs, as if such volume was a normal thing in life.
	12:20pm Nat the Listener: You can run and you can hide But you can't escape my love
	12:21pm Planet Tyler: Loudest shows: And You Will KNow Us By the Trail of Dead and Stereolab
	12:21pm Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	12:21pm HyperDose: @chris_in_space $70 markup on Reverb ain't bad, just hard to justify purchasing a $500 pedal. At least we have other options.
	12:23pm Andres: Re. internal organ rearrangement - kick drums through the bass bins at festival shows. Hate it! A feeling verging on literal heart stopping.
	12:23pm West Trenton Vinnie: @PT, AYWKUBTTOD fer shure
	12:25pm Krys O.: Killing Joke at Fillmore East in 2008 not only rearranged my internal organs, but caused me to levitate on the decibel level.
	12:27pm Andres: 25% Can Con so far. Exceeding CRTC regulations. Nice.
	12:27pm Gaylord Fields: MBV at ATP: The earplugs! They do nothing!
	12:30pm luka: loudest band i've seen in recent memory was Nothing at Sub-T in chicago 5-6 years ago. good lord.
	12:30pm clarke: agree, JJ - MBV - loudest ever. period.
	12:30pm Hughie Considine: MBV's opening acts like Dinosaur Jr. and Screaming Trees, were also incredibly loud.
	12:31pm listener 126464: Hi Pseu, everyone. Apples In Stereo- loudest
	12:31pm queems: i turned the radio up for the enrique and then east up for the pinback
	12:32pm Ike: Ah, finally, somebody is putting voice to the mood I've been in! I couldn't articulate it, but Pseu is saying what I've been thinking.
	12:32pm the Master: Nothing louder than Sun O)))
	12:33pm ottovonbqe: I want to be overjoyed that I no longer have an orange man tormenting me day after day, but I can't because "those people" are still out there!!!
	12:33pm clarke: The Sound Machine is coming down and we're gonna have a party hey heeeeyaaay!!
	12:34pm luka: Besnards like to play loud, too. bless them.
	12:34pm Hughie Considine: Mit der Hook
	12:34pm latinXcape: I'm with you Pseu! People can be ugly, esp when they loose, and more esp when they have guns.
	12:35pm Listener Robert: I'm probably one of those people you're warning us about, but your kvetching, as always, is adorable.
	12:35pm latinXcape: Vent!
	12:35pm thatpatsmith: Love to Pseu and All. Beauty is Truth
	12:35pm luka: that's barfin loud!
	12:35pm chris_in_space: I'm telling you, Sunn O))), for better or worse, are MUCH louder than MBV.
	12:35pm KlausVonB: agreed MBV at Roseland back in the day was beyond intense
	12:35pm Hughie Considine: To Genesis P'orridge, people puking was like a standing ovation.
	12:36pm Jeremy: Sunn O))) rearranged my guts at Moogfest a few years ago.
	12:36pm Jay in Boston: the most deafening show i ever saw was mogwai in 2006. it felt like someone was jabbing a pen in my ear
	12:36pm Spankyflop: My ears are still ringing from a Dinosaur Jr. show 25 years ago.
	12:36pm Hughie Considine: I've seen MBV and Sunn O))) - MBV were louder. MBV hurt more.
	12:36pm WoodsOfNH (now Maine): A friend of mine saw Sunn O))) in a small hall somewhere. They started and about 15 seconds in they blew the main breaker in the building. Yow!
	12:36pm KWilde: Hey Pseu and fellow listeners!
	12:37pm joe mulligan: I love how MBV has the title for loudest show. the other I've heard is a place to bury strangers. I haven't seen either though so can't confirm
	12:38pm Hughie Considine: Always loved this one, Pseu.
	12:38pm Krys O.: 'Those people' have unfortunately been around for a long time. Do your best to fight white nationalists, fascists, and domestic terrorists. Oh, and thanks for the Jona Lewie!
	12:38pm clarke: the difference is that MBV actually have Songs.
	12:39pm chris_in_space: @clarke, ha, still debatable, but your point is a good one
	12:39pm Gaylord Fields: As Pseu recalls, that MBV show was like being jabbed nonstop with fungo bats throughout your body by the starting 9 of a major league baseball team, with no possible escape. Body aches ensued, and I checked for bruises afterwards.
	12:39pm egould310: Fugazi at the Newport Theater, Columbus, OH. October 1990? The freaking loudest show ever. For a band that was using dynamics on their recordings; that night it was just loud ad hell. Nauseatingly loud. Permanent hearing loss loud.
	12:39pm Jason from Houston: Here to say Wolf Eyes in a medium sized venue was close to "I may need to leave" scary. Even with good earplugs...
	12:40pm Hughie Considine: I didn't want to say it, clarke. That is a key difference. Then again, MBV didn't have monk habits.
	12:40pm clarke: mister hunsecker says you sweat!
	12:40pm Andres: Nels Cline band festival set closer I saw had peoples heads down on picnic tables covering their ears. Because it was that good!
	12:40pm Chop Scott: MBV at ATP was insanely loud--the room at Kutcher's felt like it was going to lift off.
	12:40pm Stephen: Motörhead at the place in Old Bridge. W the Supersuckers. He dropped his guitar on the floor at the end of the set and walked off stage for entire break until encore with feedback just grinding down everyone’s teeth. Don’t think it was Fast Eddie though
	12:41pm Gaylord Fields: @clarke: With my Jersey City brains?
	12:42pm Krys O.: Breet! Such a nice guy. He just had a birthday on January 11th.
	12:44pm clarke: a cookie full of arsenic, Fields!!
	12:47pm Todd-o-phonic Todd: MBV weren't too quiet at Maxwell's either, but I think Dinosaur Jr. may have topped them.
	12:47pm Hoboken Pete: Tough to know who was loudest that I saw, but MBV, Dinosaur Jr, and Motorhead were at the top of my list. Also Boris was pretty thumping..
	12:50pm Dennis Diken: nice to hear The Breetles. geez, I started playing with Chris Breetveld in...gulp...1978!
	12:51pm mb: G'afternoon peeps. Pseu Pseu!
	12:52pm Pseu Braun: can't even imagine mbv playing maxwells. At the stadium volumes, that entire block of washington street would have collapsed.
	12:52pm Krys O.: Yowza, Dennis!
	12:57pm p/b: Hi FMUworld and the Devine Miss Pseu - dealing with some shite but all here and LOVE this Dire Straits cover, sounds beautiful. Always loved this song, used to make me cry, one of those. Don't tell anyone
	12:57pm West Trenton Vinnie: weekly my cat falls into a trance watching this column scroll, occasionally striking at the screen
	12:58pm Hoboken Pete: I love that this cover by widowspeak is getting a lot of airtime on this station.
	1:00pm steveo: oh well now this is Pseu isn't it. i'm not sure that set was very hooky, but i enjoyed it nonetheless
	1:00pm Listener Paul: Loud shows: John Zorn at the Painted Bride in Philly in the late 80s was painful. And though it probably wasn't loud for everyone, for some reason I stood right next to the speakers at a Stevie Ray Vaughn/Marshall Crenshaw/Dave Edmunds show at Convention Hall in Asbury Park and probably did some damage that night.
	1:04pm Stevel: Pseu: You're speaking my mind today. Thank you.
	1:05pm joe mulligan: @Paul that must have been his Naked City outfit? My loudest was the Swans at club revival philly during their children of god tour around '88 or '89. so loud they blew the power out during the show and that's where I got tinnitus. Damn you Michael Gira!
	1:05pm treehugger: YES! YES! YES! Dire Straits is so horrible!!! Good cover, however.
	1:05pm myron feld: Todd was a Maxwell's macher.
	1:05pm efd: maybe "macher" is the word you're thinking of?
	1:05pm efd: see myron knows what's up
	1:06pm PortsmouthJay: I saw Magnetic Fields at Brownie's in 1995.
	1:06pm Listener Paul: It was Naked City.
	1:06pm PortsmouthJay: I saw Air Miami at Brownie's in 1994.
	1:06pm joe mulligan: @Paul yeah there was a lotta screechin and a screamin then!
	1:07pm HyperDose: Live loud is annoying, but the production "loudness wars" is a whole different level of sacrilege.
	1:07pm Roberto: Married for appearances' sakes.
	1:07pm Stillwell Coney Islander: Hi Pseu! The loudest band I saw was Blue Cheer at the Fillmore East NYC April 1968
	1:07pm luka: lesbian tendencies
	1:07pm Listener Paul: I think the fact that it was promoted as being extremely loud was a big part of my reason for going. To be young and stupid....
	1:08pm luka: don't miss
	1:08pm HyperDose: many men in her past...
	1:08pm luka: the Party Girls
	1:12pm Deborah: Two minute break from all day/evening meetings. Looks like I am missing a fabulous show. Archive time!
	1:14pm Pseu Braun: Macher, thanks myron and evan
	1:16pm Michael Shelley: I once opened for Dino Jr @ CBGB - without doubt: loudest band I ever saw. Guitar was so loud - couldnt hear the snare drum.
	1:16pm West Trenton Vinnie: conversely, tragic death aside, Elliott Smith was barely amplified last I saw him perform, seemed as intentional artistically as a blaring barrage
	1:20pm Niall: Ah, East River Pipe. Williamsburg's first ambassador.
	1:21pm Hughie Considine: Also, Mr. Cornog is the only writer I know of to salute my hometown of Tenafly in song, in "Down 42nd Street to the Light."
	1:23pm Niall: Joe Mulligan: you're in good company with my friends, most of who've asserted that Swans played the loudest shows they'd attended (My Bloody Valentine has almost as many votes). For me, it was Marianne Amacher in 1999. Instant tinnitus and nausea.
	1:24pm Ike: That screeching and "now wait a minute" are also sampled in The Orb's "Toxygene" from 1997. But I'm still not sure where it's from. Cary Grant maybe?
	1:24pm PortsmouthJay: Choose one if it could come back: Luna Lounge, CBGBs, TONIC, Brownies, or The Cooler.
	1:25pm R. Noel Fox: Hulllooooo everyone.
	1:25pm clarke: i'm running out of alibi's.
	1:26pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I was just walking on a chilly but clear Long Branch, NJ beach listening to this show :-)
	1:27pm Dennis Diken: Lindisfarne, yes!
	1:28pm Krys O.: I have fond memories of Tonic, Portsmouth Jay. They get my vote.
	1:29pm steveo: i just saw a pair of redfinches!
	1:29pm clarke: Maxwell's!!!!
	1:30pm steveo: redfinches are the loudest band at maxwells!
	1:30pm clarke: (as far as treatment of bands - maxwell's by far was tops - as well as diverse great booking, of course).
	1:31pm R. Noel Fox: Regards to loud shows, I saw Swans a few times at Warsaw. The last time they played, I sat in a chair on the balcony, and was soon after swamped by annoying normies for the opener. Then Swans started playing a goddamn wall of sound, and it totally emptied out. I was pleased.
	1:31pm mb: Gotta go with Boris being the loudest band i've witnessed. Had to walk out. Also dearly miss Tonic. Was my intro to the Zorn world and that book shop led me to the Free Jazz world via a pamphlet by Cooper-Moore.
	1:32pm R. Noel Fox: Krys - Yes, I was going to suggest Tonic as well!
	1:33pm Roberto: Wow, very un-STP-sounding STP here.
	1:34pm Barkevious Shabazz: Loudest-Nick Cave first US tour. Also, saw Deerhunter and show was completely ruined by volume. Insanely, dopey loud.
	1:35pm Cumbia Phil: Great show again!
	1:36pm carrots: Thank You!
	1:36pm Gaylord Fields: East River Pipe wrote a an entire album inspired by Route 22. That, among other things, makes FM Cornog a musical hero in my estimation.
	1:39pm Krys O.: Richard Hell was the best part of the movie Smithereens.
	1:40pm Krys O.: Besides the Feelies score, I should add.
	1:42pm captain beef fart: Hi, Pseu
	1:42pm sufferwords: i’m below average- yet equal
	1:43pm Juli: Hello hello
	1:43pm StRts: Hi from Athens/Gr.. :)
	1:44pm Andres: Besides the hooks, I am here for the mic breaks. Thank you. Clod on!
	1:44pm Piker62: I'm with Andres. Not literally, I have no idea where he is
	1:44pm Morgan: hi pseu and listeners
	1:44pm Travisano66: Hello, All! Philip Travisano checking in from Portland, Oregon. Listened to WFMU from 1990 to 1995, then listened from the SF Bay Area for the following 22 years, and now I'm here. I was happy to design Pseu's bright yellow SoCal style promotional T-shirt.
	1:45pm luka: well, this is delightful.
	1:45pm Krys O.: Listening at work here in chilly Roseland and trying to fight sleep deprivation.
	1:45pm Pseu Braun: HELLO PEOPLE (and listener Travisano you card!)
	1:45pm Travisano66: I'm a card!
	1:46pm royvis: Good afternoon Pseu, DJ WR, and everyone!
	1:46pm Pseu Braun: ROYVISSSSS
	1:47pm Piker62: This song is refreshing
	1:47pm Joey joe joe: @travisano66–awesome shirt! Definitely one of my top favorites from my deep woof-moo shirt collection.
	1:48pm Jason from Houston: Totally thirsty now...
	1:51pm WO Town Wick: Catching up and concur on Dino Jr as loudest. Assault-y loud
	1:56pm Piker62: The Sugarplastic remains my loudest club band experience.
	1:57pm KevinfromBayRidge: Hello everybody! Another marvelous Hook Thang in progress.
	1:58pm bbob: All this Hookin makin' me ITCH~!
	2:01pm Pseu Braun: Welcome to the loudness, B-Bob!
	2:09pm egould310: Well ain’t this just the jangliest song of the day? Sounding teal good. Thanks, Pseu!
	2:09pm scott: Jimmy said that PFS was following him in his car after a party and then suddenly disappeared, and so this song.
	2:15pm Bill in W.O.: I used to be on the Parasol Records mailing list. That's been awhile back now. If they still did that maybe I wouldn't have totally missed the Velvet Crush shows in the Northeast in 2019. Bastards.
	2:19pm Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡
	2:19pm Jason from Houston: Love y'all...
	2:20pm Jeff formerly from Rahway: I saw Velvet Crush in July, 2019 at its reunion show in Providence. At the time, they expressed interest in playing some more gigs in 2020....then COVID :-(
	2:22pm captain beef fart: Dino Jr. at the old Hammerjacks here in Baltimore was pretty loud but my loudest concert experience was standing directly in front of a giant speaker at a Pixies reunion tour concert. Sound felt like wind.
	2:22pm Andres: If there are only 40 minutes left then I have been cleaning up after these cats for longer than I thought. They are cute but slobby.
	2:22pm Pseu Braun: VC is not good at social media despite my following...never knew of the gigs until a week after.
	2:24pm eastvanhalen: CanCon!
	2:24pm Pseu Braun: lotsa can con!
	2:24pm The Oscar: Busy working, but it always makes me happy to hear something off the Brain Candy soundtrack :)
	2:26pm Dennis Diken: P.F. Sloan is very much missed. a true eccentric but a sweet man and a gifted writer. one of my faves of all time. Todd, do you still have the cassette of that interview we did with him in '85? I'd love to hear that!
	2:27pm Rick from SC: @ the Oscar I'd forgotten what a great soundtrack Brain Candy had
	2:28pm Dano59: Yeah! Odds. Great guys. Got to introduce them at a. show in Waterloo ON
	2:28pm Bill in W.O.: @Jeff, that's actually encouraging news. And jealous you saw that show. Great?
	2:29pm Dano59: "when I invented Stummies..." the Pharma CEO was Terry McKinney's take on Lorne Michaels
	2:30pm Mike Sin: Was able to get my "ear goggles" on and join in right when you were playing Velvet Crush. It made me think back to the times I saw them live back in ye 1990s. Saw them twice at Maxwell's in Hoboken. Man, those show were fun. I was such a fan!
	2:31pm Dano59: new Matthew!
	2:31pm Beanz: Good day, Good Tunes .
	2:32pm Krys O.: Dialog from Brain Candy still pop into my head. Like it's 72 degrees in your head all the time.... BTW-It was Mark McKinney.
	2:33pm Bill in W.O.: Was just reading an interview with Mr. Sweet about his new record. He said it's his first where he plays all the guitar heard on the record, which maybe stupidly was a surprise to me. It's not like he's incapable. It's nice to have guitar ace friends, but he's got a sound himself.
	2:34pm captain beef fart: so I hear dad's dead. hey, is that egg nog?
	2:36pm R. Noel Fox: I saw the most TERRIBLE screening of Brain Candy a few years ago. It was the original cut, with a bunch of unseen scenes, but the video was from some digital copy that degraded every time they played it. It was like watching a video on the internet in 1995, blown up for a screen. I can't understand why they didnt' just transfer it to a different format, and just splice in the shitty missing scenes to a good copy of the film. But it was hosted by Kevin McDonald, so that was cool.
	2:36pm Mr. Pumpy: Hello Pseu and all the listeners! I can't listen properly right now because I'm teaching the children (remotely). I'm bummed because the setlist looks awesome! Thanks for fighting the good fight.
	2:37pm Dano59: yes, Krys, thanks ... Bruce McCulloch's Doors song also pops into my head.
	2:37pm Mr. Pumpy: Yes, this is egg nog. How did you know?!
	2:37pm Krys O.: Dang, Fox. That sounds irritating. I had a VHS copy of Brain Candy and someone I loaned it to kept it.
	2:38pm Fletchernyc: OH OK!!!!!!!
	2:38pm Fletchernyc: Thanks Pseu!!
	2:38pm Krys O.: Goodness gracious, someone is selling a DVD of Brain Candy for $100!
	2:39pm Gaylord Fields: And that "Brother" is … Michael Stipe! (The More You Know — swoosh)
	2:39pm Krys O.: Thanks for this, Pseu. It's been ages....
	2:39pm Dano59: don't know this Lio. what era of Ze was this? late 80s?
	2:39pm ClaireLE: Exactly what I was going to say, Fletcher! Oh OK!
	2:40pm Pseu Braun: en.wikipedia.org... @Dano59
	2:40pm Dano59: I doubt I have Brain Candy other than the soundtrack. Will have to look.
	2:41pm Krys O.: Viva la Doors! I have Shame Based Man on CD. Phew!
	2:42pm Dano59: merci, Pseu. 1986.
	2:43pm myron feld: This Cyrkle cut is fantastic! And the movie it's from features a whole lotta people I never heard of (other than Jan Sterling).
	2:43pm Mike Sin: Re: "Murray the why" I've listened to the soundtrack to this x-rated movie about a hundred times but have never seen the movie! For those in the know, is it worth checking out? Will I be scandalized? Will I end up clutching my pearls? ;)
	2:44pm Dano59: mike, if you can handle Beyond the Valley of the Doils, you'll probably be OK.
	2:44pm Mike Sin: @Dano59 - Thanks!
	2:45pm HyperDose: @Dano there was a sequel?
