	9:04am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Handy I created a new cocktail last night (sort of). Didn't have the right olives so I put a jalapeno-stuffed olive in my martini along with a lime twist. Needs a new name.
	9:04am John Allen: episodic isolation
	9:04am Malcolm: hello john allen and wfmu pals

	9:07am ?: cant hear anything volume so low
	9:07am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Handy I like it! It was multi-cultural: British gin, French vermouth, Mexican (ish) olive.
	9:07am drowsy: This song made me look up who wrote the music for the phase here, and I am happy to know that I still don't need to like Don Henley much.
	9:08am luka: i am in the episode
	👻 9:08am YETI BOB: @Handy: Are you familiar with the "Greenpoint" cocktail? I made on the other day and thought of you
	9:08am Krys O.: Greetings!
	9:09am steveo: here for the floyd
	9:09am drowsy: Danny Kortchmar is the genius behind that 'all she wants to do is dance' track, looks like.
	9:09am ratso: Hi Krys O.!
	👻 9:10am captain beef fart: martinis with jalapeño stuffed olives are el martinos
	👻 9:10am Handy Haversack: Now I think we need to come up with a Dirty Dontini, Woods. YB, ha, actually I just was looking at it last night and trying to decide if I really want to buy Yellow Chartreuse just to make that one drink! I have the Green (mainly for Last Words, which are amazing but also a real assault on the bar budget). Last night we had a Red Hook and a Brooklyn. It's almost like we still ride the subway! steveo, Krys O., ratso: hello.
	9:11am Roberto: The Stallion deserves a Nobel Prize for redeeming The Wall.
	👻 9:11am captain beef fart: los martinos
	9:11am ?: listen my new track please : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mNZJRKUTgA
	9:12am ratso: @Handy, nice grouping of "names that end in o"
	9:12am steveo: no
	9:12am John Allen: Mr. Wallers, tear down this wall.
	9:12am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Friends of Dean Matini-ez
	9:12am luka: hey! t-shirt!
	👻 9:12am karlward: Reporting for duty, fully prepared to unleash radical candor
	👻 9:13am Handy Haversack: Nice, captain! Good to know! I had "run like hell" pre-clickied. Very happy for more of this. steveo: D'o!
	9:13am David (in London): Rev Rabbit, Krys, steveo, Woods. Greetings all.
	9:13am steveo: hell-o
	9:13am John Allen: Karl you're just in time, It's Classic Rock Meditations Day
	9:13am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...or put an orange turd in it & call it a Martini-a-Lago...
	9:14am steveo: did you hear that gen ken that fabio played yesterday JA?
	👻 9:14am YETI BOB: @HH: Mezcal Last Word has become a house favorite - gin is good too but with mezcal it is great. I absolutely love chartreuse, I put it in hot chocolate sometimes. The Greenpoint was good. I found yellow chatreuse in a 375 ml bottle but yeah it's pricey.
	👻 9:15am karlward: I could listen to The Stallion for hours, and I probably will
	9:15am Peter from Dover NJ: Good morning Handy, David in London.
	👻 9:15am YETI BOB: @RR1163: Garnish with a Cheeto
	9:16am John Allen: steveo here from the inside we usually know what Fabio has done before it happens
	9:16am steveo: had a feeling
	9:16am mb: G'morn John Allen and you people. Hell-o indeed.
	👻 9:17am karlward: The cocktail called The Stallion is where you look up some other cocktail's recipe on the Internet, pick a recipe version at random, make it, spill it on a drum machine, pour it back into the glass, then just before you drink it, you turn on the drum machine
	👻 9:17am YETI BOB: "The Stallion" is Ben Waller from Country Teasers. I saw that band once, they really baited the audience
	👻 9:17am karlward: Right there
	👻 9:17am karlward: That's where you turn on the drum machine
	👻 9:17am karlward: Good luck
	👻 9:18am Handy Haversack: Remember, steveo Gen Ken is very well known to them all. Hey, Peter!
	9:19am steveo: i think gen ken is a spy
	9:20am John Allen: better watch that Steveo, Gen Ken is an elected official
	9:21am steveo: he don't know my name only know my initials
	👻 9:23am YETI BOB: Luc Ex used to play bass in The Ex. doesn't that make him Luc Ex-Ex?
	👻 9:23am karlward: Really hoping this is that project where David Lee Roth recreated all the songs from the first Van Halen records by playing all the instruments himself
	9:23am Roberto: Yas Little Guitars!
	👻 9:23am karlward: Oh damn it isn't
	9:23am David (in London): Peter, hello!
	9:24am mb: Some segue here. Glorious Eddie!
	9:25am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Eddie's rhythm playing was so fab in the early years. Kinda fell off with Van Hagar...
	👻 9:25am YETI BOB: this sounds horrible to me, sorry! i don't understand how this band got so huge
	9:26am David (in London): Shame he never played with Marc Bolan. Then he could have been Ex-Ex Ex-TRex
	9:26am jmr3: Heard this from the next room and couldn't tell if it was Van Halen or Belew era King Crimson
	9:27am Roberto: Whose, not who's. Unless that's the actual title of the track and it's a [sic]ening situation.
	👻 9:32am YETI BOB: Wow, even worse than "Wake" by Rolnick!
	9:33am ntanc: the disrhythm makes this awful song interesting
	👻 9:33am karlward: This classic rock meditation took me to 1989 and I want to go back home now
	9:33am slugluv1313: GEN KEN!!! <3 <3 <3 Good Morning, JA and Skeletons and Everyone! working on a buncha stuff, happy to be listening and here with y'all :)
	👻 9:34am Threemoons: Morning all, in audio lurk mode...
	👻 9:34am Handy Haversack: Well, karlward, that's just politics, innit.
	9:34am slugluv1313: omg a musician/band named after krokodil?!?!? HOW did i not know about this!?
	9:35am John Allen: Right Slug! a name that that doesn't conjure distillation
	9:37am David (in London): Yeti Bob. I'd actually rated it at about 0.47NRu. Were you going 1.2 or 1.3 then?
	👻 9:38am YETI BOB: @Slug: It's just the German name for a certain aquatic reptile. Not a reference to the Russian street drug. These guys came out of Switzerland in 1973
	👻 9:38am Handy Haversack: "der progressive Psychedelic Underground Rockband aus der Schweiz" Not the flesh-rotting Russian superdrug. Or so we think!
	👻 9:39am karlward: This rules
	9:39am drowsy: yes, this does rule.
	👻 9:39am YETI BOB: Crocodylinae, not desomorphine
	9:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is hilarious!
	9:40am luka: {{"long red"}} YEAH!!
	9:40am slugluv1313: @ Yeti Bob, @ Handy -- ah, ok! had no idea, thanks for the clarification :)
	9:40am dave wuz here: i'd like to buy one million p90 pickups please
	9:40am coolioiglesias: I didn't know a song could be this good tbh
	9:41am slugluv1313: YEAHHHHHH FABIO!!! LARY7!!!!!!!!
	9:41am LastVisibleDog: My god, WFMU bringing you all your classic rock favorites!
	9:43am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @John Allen: There'd better be some Cecil Taylor later. Ha!
	9:43am p/b: GM John Planet FMUbaby listen to this stuff, it wants to take you higher - sounds good to me
	9:44am John Allen: hey Woods no worry, trombones will eventually overtake the show
	9:44am northguineahills: what is is madness, larry 7 played w/ fabio!?? (I know larry! I was was w/ larry when found a washing machine on the curb, somehow dragged it to Tonic (he's a bit diminutive). He got it on stage. plugged it in, and it didn't work. He just put his hands up after 10 mins, and was like, that's the show (he had rocks and other implements to put in said washer).
	9:44am mei2ti3: Guaranteed to blow your mind. Classic (Mississippi) Queen.
	9:44am steveo: lol always test the washer ngh
	👻 9:45am karlward: Tonic was the best, I don't care if the washing machines are all broken
	👻 9:45am YETI BOB: @D(iL): The NRU is a unit of patience-testing. I think you have to take into account both duration and degree of annoyance. At least Gen Ken didn't go on for 11 minutes! Also, I didn't sleep last night and I'm feeling really out of sorts, I probably should not be listening to this show today if this is the direction we're going in. You guys have fun, I'll be back next week
	👻 9:46am YETI BOB: I'm going to put on some nice jazz records!
	9:46am northguineahills: Tonic was my home for 7 years (I was there 5 days a week, studying, grading papers, djing, playing, and making friends.
	9:46am Rev. Turnip Druid: gah, missed GKM and fabio/lary7 - must punch self, with a homicidal dancer's flair.....INNAFACE!
	9:47am Rev. Turnip Druid: but made it for TOAD. WIN.
	9:47am northguineahills: when it closed, it was like my heart got torn out, and slowly lost my lust for NYC.
	9:47am David (in London): Yeti Bob, have a cool compress and a cup of herbal tea, too. You can define herbal in any sense you think appropriate.
	9:47am jmr3: So much ROCK!
	👻 9:47am Handy Haversack: Rev., given what we just witnessed, I'm going to allow it. The trombones are coming, YB!
	👻 9:48am karlward: I frequently tell people that opening the door for Yuka Honda at Tonic once was the most starstruck I have ever been
	9:48am John Allen: Yeah Yeti come back in 15!
	9:48am jmr3: Hey JA - Howard Johnson died this week - you got any heavy tuba music lined up for later?
	9:49am steveo: the wind just blew the planter off the bike tarp so i had to go outside; didn't die
	9:49am David (in London): Afternoon Reverend, I worry for your face. I hope you're wearing purple loons pants and a headband JA. By law you need to be dressed appropriately to play this stuff.
	👻 9:50am karlward: A solitary predator, the wind stalks its prey: a lone steveo, cut off from the herd, and out of earshot due to the raging classic rock jams
	9:50am northguineahills: @Karlward: I once was in subtonic setting up my turntables and my reel-to-reel (for djing), and Yuka was the only person down there, and she was doing voice exercises for a show above. I was too intimidated to even approach her.
	9:51am Rev. Turnip Druid: when one's face becomes that of a bag of wet failure, one carries on. And rocks the TOAD. Also: looking forward to ten million feet of snow in festive Baltimore.
	9:52am steveo: ...the raging classic rock jams blasting from the overhead speakers. The hunter is a ninja with a spine made of laser beams and a laundry list of ciphers, invisible and porous. Catching the wind isn’t going to be easy. But there are a couple little tricks to get the wind to help you.
	9:52am northguineahills: Should I sell my Gen Ken rekkids? (short on cash this last year) (all gotten at his shows).
	9:53am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is making me want to stop work and plug the Tele into the Fender and make some noizzzze.
	9:54am mb: Hott lixx Fridays
	👻 9:54am Handy Haversack: Poxiest lyrics every written.
	9:54am steveo: thanks karl i 'm back and classically meditating rockfully
	9:54am David (in London): JA you've played Patto's Loud Green Song before on this show. It would be most appropriate to hear it again now, with the dial turned up to 11. Or maybe 13. Or 19.
	9:54am Rev. Turnip Druid: ER
	9:54am Megaroni: Our Gen Ken?!
	9:55am John Allen: OURS
	👻 9:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Don't miss the Party Girls.
	9:56am Megaroni: I am honored to know him
	9:56am northguineahills: Gen Ken Montgomery....
	9:58am mb: Bernie Ken the big winner of the mitten meme if you ask me.
	9:59am slugluv1313: hi ngh! YES! Tonic was freaking awesome -- did not get to spend as much time there as you though (jealous!) -- but always enjoyed the joint
	👻 10:01am Threemoons: Lary7!!!
	👻 10:01am karlward: Tom is too loud!
	👻 10:01am karlward: Tom! Tom!
	10:03am steveo: 10,000 dB
	10:05am northguineahills: @slugluv: I probably mingled w/ you there, in tonic. I was a regular, got in for free, drank for free, and treated it as my study for academic education, and a workplace. (Best people in the universe worked there)
	👻 10:08am Handy Haversack: One at Tonic I didn't let Bjork have my friend's chair while he was in the bathroom, and he got so mad at me when he got back. But who needs friends.
	10:08am John Allen: karl was Tom too loud? I'm still headphoneless. sad really. I'm doing this show with basically one wire
	10:09am Mister Dobalina: These are some really Friday morning tunes, it is Friday, right? Don't matter, 'cause this breakfast sandwich I'm having is outta control good.
	10:09am Mister Dobalina: *good...
	10:14am John Allen: HH_ friend being mad at you because Bjork needed a break, maybe he wasn't really your friend. Do you still speak with friend?
	10:15am northguineahills: @Handy: (outside of seeing Bjork in small concert situations), I was once reading The Wire, and Bjork was the cover star. (I was reading) I was on the F train, and catercorner from me across the way was Bjork. I looked at the cover, looked at her, and blushed. She got off at 47th St...
	10:16am slugluv1313: @ngh -- right? i am guessing a lot of us here have crossed paths! and Tonic was one of those great, cool NYC places (and being in NJ, i never felt like Tonic was "out of the way" or anything)
	👻 10:17am Handy Haversack: It's fraught, JA! Of course, ngh, 47th St.: Little Reykjavik!
	👻 10:17am YETI BOB: hey what are these sweet tones coming out of my speakers?
	10:17am John Allen: whew, Yeti you heeded the call
	👻 10:18am YETI BOB: thanks JA!
	10:18am northguineahills: @Handy: snert 😁
	10:18am John Allen: you know it Yeti, this is a jazz show
	10:19am northguineahills: @Handy: it was one of those WTF coincidental situations I couldn't process at the time....
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like the Jazzes.
	👻 10:20am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ 𝓳 𝓪 𝔃 𝔃 ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	10:21am John Allen: jazz wingdings
	👻 10:21am YETI BOB: And I do appreciate experimentalism and noise - I'm even guilty of creating some long difficult experimental tracks myself. But I'm not always in the right state to listen to it.
	10:22am John Allen: this next hour will get you right
	10:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: I still intend to spend some time messing with that Chuck software. I have a lot of ideas. Recently though...I just can't bear doing more computering at night or on the weekends.
	10:23am Mister Dobalina: Jazz is stupid. Why can't they just play the right notes?
	10:24am mb: "Do you like Jazz" x infinity
	👻 10:26am YETI BOB: I hear that, Woods. I'm coding for my day job, then there are like 12 different projects I'd like to finish, that all involve large amounts of computer time.
	10:26am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Mister Dobalina: One of the best lines ever from that show.
	10:26am jmr3: I thought Grachan Moncur only played the Long rally theme music
	10:26am David (in London): Woods, I've been feeling the same recently. By the end of the work day my eyes feeling like they're melting. The last thing they need is more time looking at screens.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...don't use that Tonal of voice w/ me young man...
	10:27am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: Yes. After a week of this, I've found myself spending more time painting. Calms down the brain squirrels.
	10:27am Mister Dobalina: @Woods..Totally!
	👻 10:28am Handy Haversack: OK, the birds looked cold so I took more seed out there. And survived. Like steveo, I am annealed and made new, a name spoken by the wind only when it feels very safe.
	10:29am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @David (in London): Exactly. I'll pick up the current Wire and try to catch up there. Though there have been nights when my eyes don't even want to do that. I'll pop a documentary on from HBO or something. (The Bee Gees doc was really great. So was Bowie: The Last Five Years)
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but DeathWish Coffee makes the Brain Squirrels do funny things... Have you overamplified yer sympathetic nervous system? Make sure you pass some good South American topsoil thru YOUR clenching acidic uselessly neurotic paranoid & hyperstimulated Murikan guts TODAY...
	10:32am David (in London): Woods, I've noticed, too, that colleagues are starting to default to 'setting up a Teams' call', even on a one-to-one basis. I've begun to push back against that now and say 'I'd rather just speak on the phone if you don't mind'. And podcasts in the evening instead of anything screen-based. I think it's really vital to defend one's brain from digital encroachment right now.
	10:33am steveo: waitaminute i didn't say i froze my glass
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: True - everyone became an eye zombie - I'm an ear zombie...
	10:34am David (in London): He said, whilst being on the Accu morning, noon and night. (Though I'm trying to limit that, too, a bit.)
	👻 10:34am YETI BOB: Hah, David, that crossed my mind :)
	👻 10:36am Handy Haversack: It was implied, steveo!
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wth two windows open & listening to a stream & drinking supercoffee... My Moon's in Gemini? What Me Worry ?
	10:37am Yes: hallo
	10:37am David (in London): I'm nothing if not an outrageous hypocrite Yeti Bob.
	10:40am Mister Dobalina: Ptarmigan are birds that live in the arctic.
	10:42am steveo: fair enough :)
	10:49am terminalhipness: (back from a hellish budget review meeting - with fresh coffee and in time for jazz!)
	10:51am BridgeNtunnels: this jazz segment is exactly what I need this morning. Great set, JA
	👻 10:54am karlward: Wait they're all jazz segments
	10:55am John Allen: 'you're soaking in it'
	👻 10:56am YETI BOB: @D(iL): I've been trying to avoid digital encroachment for years, with varying degrees of success. But at this point, what with covid and Chicago winter, it seems like a lost cause. And there's that Party Girls remix I have to finish!
	👻 10:57am Handy Haversack: Definite digital tendencies!
	10:57am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: Really looking forward to hearing all the remixes. I actually went and bought that LP. Should be a lot of fun.
	👻 10:59am Handy Haversack: But Woods, the LP is the prize! You should have claimed it by right of conquest! In love with her remix!
	11:00am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Handy I have no digital skilz in that area. Probably no patience to learn them either.
	11:00am steveo: thinking my PG will have some trombone; tone needs a lot of work
	11:00am Hubig Pie: Gnarly trombone
	11:01am Malcolm: the brown note
	11:01am eºIºk: Purr?
	11:01am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hi all, for those interested, there's a special Aloha Friday hosted by Carol Crow of Serious Moonlight Sonatas on Sheena's Jungle Room, starting now! wfmu.org...
	👻 11:01am YETI BOB: JA - really enjoyed those Moncour selections. Thanks. This is pretty cool too - my cat is staring at the speaker with a puzzled expression
	11:03am John Allen: Hey Sylvia, uh. really? That's not really how it goes here.
	11:04am Sylvia (France-NYC): my bad then, John Allen. I'm sorry.
	11:05am John Allen: oh forget it, the mood is over
	11:07am Mister Dobalina: Love me some Arthur Russell!
	11:12am steveo: amazing track
	11:12am slugluv1313: YES loving this Arthur Russell
	👻 11:12am Handy Haversack: I upgraded the rotary phone -- new one's a beaut! Sweet dialing action! Might slow me down trying to call in to do the legal on Ken's show, though ...
	👻 11:17am Jason from Houston: ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡ ♡
	👻 11:19am Threemoons: FYI I guess you all have seen this already... www.dailymail.co.uk...
	11:19am Doug in JC: @Handy My friend used to have a payphone in his house. Apparently they work like normal phones if you just hook it up to your house line
	👻 11:20am Jason from Houston: So fine...
	11:21am Mister Dobalina: Gosh, sure is chilly willy out here today. Thank goodness we have these warm tunes to keep us alive.
	👻 11:22am Jason from Houston: Local shop had a copy of Inside Story last week and I pumped the brakes on it for no good reason. Ugh.
	👻 11:22am Handy Haversack: The previous rotary had a hardwired, er, wire -- not a modular jack, so I could not replace the cord as it wore out without learning more than I need to learn, Doug. Found a nice one with a modular jack when we were upstate a couple of weeks back. Rotary phone dialing seems to work fine over fiber-optic cable! What a world!
	11:24am Doug in JC: Feel free to consult me next time you have a 2 or more wire project :) I'll make sure you learn as little as possible.
	👻 11:26am Handy Haversack: It's a deal! Also, someone posted this blog to Trouble's board yesterday: meadowblog.net . Let's get out there this spring!
	11:27am slugluv1313: hi, Threemoons! awwww cutie! Black Bear totally grooving to the DJ's vibes :)
	👻 11:28am karlward: Hold onto your jazz, here it comes
	11:29am Doug in JC: Yes! This will be my year of getting out as much as possible
	👻 11:31am karlward: Jazz-denied!
	👻 11:31am Threemoons: @Slug glad u like! Working my temp gig and lurking, popping in when I can...
	11:32am a polished polish lady: ☊☺︎♡
	11:35am slugluv1313: hi Handy! omg YES! had no idea that this was a thing -- THANK YOU! i was all set to go visit the Snowy Owl who was hanging out in Central Park, but then heard that she was no longer there
	11:37am Anita: Thanks John Allen. Enjoyed the show!
	11:39am slugluv1313: @Threemoons -- glad you are working! lurking about here too -- no "regular" job right now, but working on stuff to change that :)
	11:46am Malcolm: have a great weekend JA and everyone.
	11:47am John Allen: thanks for dropping by Malcolm
	11:49am zopa: oh man. i missed the fabio. damn.
	👻 11:54am Handy Haversack: Eleven bald eagles in one tree slugluv! Thanks, JA, Matt, Skeleteam! Today had it all. Even more notes than what I thought there was. Be well, J'All!
	👻 11:55am 12539: Thanks, John and skeleton crew!
	11:55am slugluv1313: fantastic show, JA -- thanks so much! have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
	11:55am David (in London): Thanks for the cool jazz stylings JA. Later groovers.

	11:56am Mister Dobalina: Good stuff, JA.
	11:56am ratso: good show, JA. Thanks!
	11:56am morphe': Thanks JAinAM and all .....
	11:57am terminalhipness: Thank you John, thanks skeleton crew. Nice episode...
	11:58am slugluv1313: @Handy -- right? when/where i was a kid growing up in semi-rural/suburban central NJ -- once in awhile i would see an Eagle, a hawk flying high, and would hear how the American Bald Eagle's population was dwindling -- so i am so thrilled to see that they are thriving :)
	👻 11:59am Jason from Houston: Thank you for the fine sounds, JA.
	12:00pm Phillippe Bastille: Thanks JA
	👻 12:00pm Threemoons: Oh man...waiting for a Teams meeting to start and nobody can figure out how to mute their mikes so it's a freaking feedback party...sigh...

"I listened yesterday. It's no reflection on you but I could'nt see where you were going or what you were going for. This early seventies thing did'nt get noticed the first time and you talk about friends of like Dealney and Bonnie who had records out like we're supposed to remember who they are. Then you play this long winded free jazz stuff that really grates on my nerves. And that noise without a beat and sounds like someones being pinched. Then you play a reggae song, I think you called it Dub, to what, be cool? You seem to really fetishize the whole folk thing too which is obnoxious to us who don't even care. I liked it when you played that punk song though. I like Joe Belock a lot." (Visit homepage.)

	9:04am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Handy I created a new cocktail last night (sort of). Didn't have the right olives so I put a jalapeno-stuffed olive in my martini along with a lime twist. Needs a new name.

	👻 9:10am captain beef fart: martinis with jalapeño stuffed olives are el martinos
	👻 9:10am Handy Haversack: Now I think we need to come up with a Dirty Dontini, Woods. YB, ha, actually I just was looking at it last night and trying to decide if I really want to buy Yellow Chartreuse just to make that one drink! I have the Green (mainly for Last Words, which are amazing but also a real assault on the bar budget). Last night we had a Red Hook and a Brooklyn. It's almost like we still ride the subway! steveo, Krys O., ratso: hello.
	9:11am Roberto: The Stallion deserves a Nobel Prize for redeeming The Wall.

	9:14am steveo: did you hear that gen ken that fabio played yesterday JA?
	👻 9:14am YETI BOB: @HH: Mezcal Last Word has become a house favorite - gin is good too but with mezcal it is great. I absolutely love chartreuse, I put it in hot chocolate sometimes. The Greenpoint was good. I found yellow chatreuse in a 375 ml bottle but yeah it's pricey.
	👻 9:15am karlward: I could listen to The Stallion for hours, and I probably will
	9:15am Peter from Dover NJ: Good morning Handy, David in London.
	👻 9:15am YETI BOB: @RR1163: Garnish with a Cheeto
	9:16am John Allen: steveo here from the inside we usually know what Fabio has done before it happens
	9:16am steveo: had a feeling
	9:16am mb: G'morn John Allen and you people. Hell-o indeed.
	👻 9:17am karlward: The cocktail called The Stallion is where you look up some other cocktail's recipe on the Internet, pick a recipe version at random, make it, spill it on a drum machine, pour it back into the glass, then just before you drink it, you turn on the drum machine
	👻 9:17am YETI BOB: "The Stallion" is Ben Waller from Country Teasers. I saw that band once, they really baited the audience
	👻 9:17am karlward: Right there
	👻 9:17am karlward: That's where you turn on the drum machine
	👻 9:17am karlward: Good luck
	👻 9:18am Handy Haversack: Remember, steveo Gen Ken is very well known to them all. Hey, Peter!
	9:19am steveo: i think gen ken is a spy
	9:20am John Allen: better watch that Steveo, Gen Ken is an elected official
	9:21am steveo: he don't know my name only know my initials
	👻 9:23am YETI BOB: Luc Ex used to play bass in The Ex. doesn't that make him Luc Ex-Ex?
	👻 9:23am karlward: Really hoping this is that project where David Lee Roth recreated all the songs from the first Van Halen records by playing all the instruments himself
	9:23am Roberto: Yas Little Guitars!
	👻 9:23am karlward: Oh damn it isn't
	9:23am David (in London): Peter, hello!
	9:24am mb: Some segue here. Glorious Eddie!
	9:25am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): Eddie's rhythm playing was so fab in the early years. Kinda fell off with Van Hagar...
	👻 9:25am YETI BOB: this sounds horrible to me, sorry! i don't understand how this band got so huge
	9:26am David (in London): Shame he never played with Marc Bolan. Then he could have been Ex-Ex Ex-TRex
	9:26am jmr3: Heard this from the next room and couldn't tell if it was Van Halen or Belew era King Crimson
	9:27am Roberto: Whose, not who's. Unless that's the actual title of the track and it's a [sic]ening situation.
	👻 9:32am YETI BOB: Wow, even worse than "Wake" by Rolnick!
	9:33am ntanc: the disrhythm makes this awful song interesting
	👻 9:33am karlward: This classic rock meditation took me to 1989 and I want to go back home now
	9:33am slugluv1313: GEN KEN!!! <3 <3 <3 Good Morning, JA and Skeletons and Everyone! working on a buncha stuff, happy to be listening and here with y'all :)
	👻 9:34am Threemoons: Morning all, in audio lurk mode...
	👻 9:34am Handy Haversack: Well, karlward, that's just politics, innit.
	9:34am slugluv1313: omg a musician/band named after krokodil?!?!? HOW did i not know about this!?
	9:35am John Allen: Right Slug! a name that that doesn't conjure distillation
	9:37am David (in London): Yeti Bob. I'd actually rated it at about 0.47NRu. Were you going 1.2 or 1.3 then?
	👻 9:38am YETI BOB: @Slug: It's just the German name for a certain aquatic reptile. Not a reference to the Russian street drug. These guys came out of Switzerland in 1973
	👻 9:38am Handy Haversack: "der progressive Psychedelic Underground Rockband aus der Schweiz" Not the flesh-rotting Russian superdrug. Or so we think!
	👻 9:39am karlward: This rules
	9:39am drowsy: yes, this does rule.
	👻 9:39am YETI BOB: Crocodylinae, not desomorphine
	9:40am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is hilarious!
	9:40am luka: {{"long red"}} YEAH!!
	9:40am slugluv1313: @ Yeti Bob, @ Handy -- ah, ok! had no idea, thanks for the clarification :)
	9:40am dave wuz here: i'd like to buy one million p90 pickups please
	9:40am coolioiglesias: I didn't know a song could be this good tbh
	9:41am slugluv1313: YEAHHHHHH FABIO!!! LARY7!!!!!!!!
	9:41am LastVisibleDog: My god, WFMU bringing you all your classic rock favorites!
	9:43am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @John Allen: There'd better be some Cecil Taylor later. Ha!
	9:43am p/b: GM John Planet FMUbaby listen to this stuff, it wants to take you higher - sounds good to me
	9:44am John Allen: hey Woods no worry, trombones will eventually overtake the show
	9:44am northguineahills: what is is madness, larry 7 played w/ fabio!?? (I know larry! I was was w/ larry when found a washing machine on the curb, somehow dragged it to Tonic (he's a bit diminutive). He got it on stage. plugged it in, and it didn't work. He just put his hands up after 10 mins, and was like, that's the show (he had rocks and other implements to put in said washer).
	9:44am mei2ti3: Guaranteed to blow your mind. Classic (Mississippi) Queen.
	9:44am steveo: lol always test the washer ngh
	👻 9:45am karlward: Tonic was the best, I don't care if the washing machines are all broken
	👻 9:45am YETI BOB: @D(iL): The NRU is a unit of patience-testing. I think you have to take into account both duration and degree of annoyance. At least Gen Ken didn't go on for 11 minutes! Also, I didn't sleep last night and I'm feeling really out of sorts, I probably should not be listening to this show today if this is the direction we're going in. You guys have fun, I'll be back next week
	👻 9:46am YETI BOB: I'm going to put on some nice jazz records!
	9:46am northguineahills: Tonic was my home for 7 years (I was there 5 days a week, studying, grading papers, djing, playing, and making friends.
	9:46am Rev. Turnip Druid: gah, missed GKM and fabio/lary7 - must punch self, with a homicidal dancer's flair.....INNAFACE!
	9:47am Rev. Turnip Druid: but made it for TOAD. WIN.
	9:47am northguineahills: when it closed, it was like my heart got torn out, and slowly lost my lust for NYC.
	9:47am David (in London): Yeti Bob, have a cool compress and a cup of herbal tea, too. You can define herbal in any sense you think appropriate.
	9:47am jmr3: So much ROCK!
	👻 9:47am Handy Haversack: Rev., given what we just witnessed, I'm going to allow it. The trombones are coming, YB!
	👻 9:48am karlward: I frequently tell people that opening the door for Yuka Honda at Tonic once was the most starstruck I have ever been
	9:48am John Allen: Yeah Yeti come back in 15!
	9:48am jmr3: Hey JA - Howard Johnson died this week - you got any heavy tuba music lined up for later?
	9:49am steveo: the wind just blew the planter off the bike tarp so i had to go outside; didn't die
	9:49am David (in London): Afternoon Reverend, I worry for your face. I hope you're wearing purple loons pants and a headband JA. By law you need to be dressed appropriately to play this stuff.
	👻 9:50am karlward: A solitary predator, the wind stalks its prey: a lone steveo, cut off from the herd, and out of earshot due to the raging classic rock jams
	9:50am northguineahills: @Karlward: I once was in subtonic setting up my turntables and my reel-to-reel (for djing), and Yuka was the only person down there, and she was doing voice exercises for a show above. I was too intimidated to even approach her.
	9:51am Rev. Turnip Druid: when one's face becomes that of a bag of wet failure, one carries on. And rocks the TOAD. Also: looking forward to ten million feet of snow in festive Baltimore.
	9:52am steveo: ...the raging classic rock jams blasting from the overhead speakers. The hunter is a ninja with a spine made of laser beams and a laundry list of ciphers, invisible and porous. Catching the wind isn’t going to be easy. But there are a couple little tricks to get the wind to help you.
	9:52am northguineahills: Should I sell my Gen Ken rekkids? (short on cash this last year) (all gotten at his shows).
	9:53am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): This is making me want to stop work and plug the Tele into the Fender and make some noizzzze.
	9:54am mb: Hott lixx Fridays
	👻 9:54am Handy Haversack: Poxiest lyrics every written.
	9:54am steveo: thanks karl i 'm back and classically meditating rockfully
	9:54am David (in London): JA you've played Patto's Loud Green Song before on this show. It would be most appropriate to hear it again now, with the dial turned up to 11. Or maybe 13. Or 19.
	9:54am Rev. Turnip Druid: ER
	9:54am Megaroni: Our Gen Ken?!
	9:55am John Allen: OURS
	👻 9:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Don't miss the Party Girls.
	9:56am Megaroni: I am honored to know him
	9:56am northguineahills: Gen Ken Montgomery....
	9:58am mb: Bernie Ken the big winner of the mitten meme if you ask me.
	9:59am slugluv1313: hi ngh! YES! Tonic was freaking awesome -- did not get to spend as much time there as you though (jealous!) -- but always enjoyed the joint
	👻 10:01am Threemoons: Lary7!!!
	👻 10:01am karlward: Tom is too loud!
	👻 10:01am karlward: Tom! Tom!
	10:03am steveo: 10,000 dB
	10:05am northguineahills: @slugluv: I probably mingled w/ you there, in tonic. I was a regular, got in for free, drank for free, and treated it as my study for academic education, and a workplace. (Best people in the universe worked there)
	👻 10:08am Handy Haversack: One at Tonic I didn't let Bjork have my friend's chair while he was in the bathroom, and he got so mad at me when he got back. But who needs friends.
	10:08am John Allen: karl was Tom too loud? I'm still headphoneless. sad really. I'm doing this show with basically one wire
	10:09am Mister Dobalina: These are some really Friday morning tunes, it is Friday, right? Don't matter, 'cause this breakfast sandwich I'm having is outta control good.
	10:09am Mister Dobalina: *good...
	10:14am John Allen: HH_ friend being mad at you because Bjork needed a break, maybe he wasn't really your friend. Do you still speak with friend?
	10:15am northguineahills: @Handy: (outside of seeing Bjork in small concert situations), I was once reading The Wire, and Bjork was the cover star. (I was reading) I was on the F train, and catercorner from me across the way was Bjork. I looked at the cover, looked at her, and blushed. She got off at 47th St...
	10:16am slugluv1313: @ngh -- right? i am guessing a lot of us here have crossed paths! and Tonic was one of those great, cool NYC places (and being in NJ, i never felt like Tonic was "out of the way" or anything)
	👻 10:17am Handy Haversack: It's fraught, JA! Of course, ngh, 47th St.: Little Reykjavik!
	👻 10:17am YETI BOB: hey what are these sweet tones coming out of my speakers?
	10:17am John Allen: whew, Yeti you heeded the call
	👻 10:18am YETI BOB: thanks JA!
	10:18am northguineahills: @Handy: snert 😁
	10:18am John Allen: you know it Yeti, this is a jazz show
	10:19am northguineahills: @Handy: it was one of those WTF coincidental situations I couldn't process at the time....
	10:19am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I like the Jazzes.
	👻 10:20am Jason from Houston: ꒰⑅ᵕ༚ᵕ꒱˖♡ 𝓳 𝓪 𝔃 𝔃 ♡˖꒰ᵕ༚ᵕ⑅꒱
	10:21am John Allen: jazz wingdings
	👻 10:21am YETI BOB: And I do appreciate experimentalism and noise - I'm even guilty of creating some long difficult experimental tracks myself. But I'm not always in the right state to listen to it.
	10:22am John Allen: this next hour will get you right
	10:23am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: I still intend to spend some time messing with that Chuck software. I have a lot of ideas. Recently though...I just can't bear doing more computering at night or on the weekends.
	10:23am Mister Dobalina: Jazz is stupid. Why can't they just play the right notes?
	10:24am mb: "Do you like Jazz" x infinity
	👻 10:26am YETI BOB: I hear that, Woods. I'm coding for my day job, then there are like 12 different projects I'd like to finish, that all involve large amounts of computer time.
	10:26am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Mister Dobalina: One of the best lines ever from that show.
	10:26am jmr3: I thought Grachan Moncur only played the Long rally theme music
	10:26am David (in London): Woods, I've been feeling the same recently. By the end of the work day my eyes feeling like they're melting. The last thing they need is more time looking at screens.
	10:26am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...don't use that Tonal of voice w/ me young man...
	10:27am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: Yes. After a week of this, I've found myself spending more time painting. Calms down the brain squirrels.
	10:27am Mister Dobalina: @Woods..Totally!
	👻 10:28am Handy Haversack: OK, the birds looked cold so I took more seed out there. And survived. Like steveo, I am annealed and made new, a name spoken by the wind only when it feels very safe.
	10:29am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @David (in London): Exactly. I'll pick up the current Wire and try to catch up there. Though there have been nights when my eyes don't even want to do that. I'll pop a documentary on from HBO or something. (The Bee Gees doc was really great. So was Bowie: The Last Five Years)
	10:31am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...yes but DeathWish Coffee makes the Brain Squirrels do funny things... Have you overamplified yer sympathetic nervous system? Make sure you pass some good South American topsoil thru YOUR clenching acidic uselessly neurotic paranoid & hyperstimulated Murikan guts TODAY...
	10:32am David (in London): Woods, I've noticed, too, that colleagues are starting to default to 'setting up a Teams' call', even on a one-to-one basis. I've begun to push back against that now and say 'I'd rather just speak on the phone if you don't mind'. And podcasts in the evening instead of anything screen-based. I think it's really vital to defend one's brain from digital encroachment right now.
	10:33am steveo: waitaminute i didn't say i froze my glass
	10:33am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: True - everyone became an eye zombie - I'm an ear zombie...
	10:34am David (in London): He said, whilst being on the Accu morning, noon and night. (Though I'm trying to limit that, too, a bit.)
	👻 10:34am YETI BOB: Hah, David, that crossed my mind :)
	👻 10:36am Handy Haversack: It was implied, steveo!
	10:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...wth two windows open & listening to a stream & drinking supercoffee... My Moon's in Gemini? What Me Worry ?
	10:37am Yes: hallo
	10:37am David (in London): I'm nothing if not an outrageous hypocrite Yeti Bob.
	10:40am Mister Dobalina: Ptarmigan are birds that live in the arctic.
	10:42am steveo: fair enough :)
	10:49am terminalhipness: (back from a hellish budget review meeting - with fresh coffee and in time for jazz!)
	10:51am BridgeNtunnels: this jazz segment is exactly what I need this morning. Great set, JA
	👻 10:54am karlward: Wait they're all jazz segments
	10:55am John Allen: 'you're soaking in it'
	👻 10:56am YETI BOB: @D(iL): I've been trying to avoid digital encroachment for years, with varying degrees of success. But at this point, what with covid and Chicago winter, it seems like a lost cause. And there's that Party Girls remix I have to finish!
	👻 10:57am Handy Haversack: Definite digital tendencies!
	10:57am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @YETI BOB: Really looking forward to hearing all the remixes. I actually went and bought that LP. Should be a lot of fun.
	👻 10:59am Handy Haversack: But Woods, the LP is the prize! You should have claimed it by right of conquest! In love with her remix!
	11:00am WoodsOfNH (now Maine): @Handy I have no digital skilz in that area. Probably no patience to learn them either.
	11:00am steveo: thinking my PG will have some trombone; tone needs a lot of work
	11:00am Hubig Pie: Gnarly trombone
	11:01am Malcolm: the brown note
	11:01am eºIºk: Purr?
	11:01am Sylvia (France-NYC): Hi all, for those interested, there's a special Aloha Friday hosted by Carol Crow of Serious Moonlight Sonatas on Sheena's Jungle Room, starting now! wfmu.org...
	👻 11:01am YETI BOB: JA - really enjoyed those Moncour selections. Thanks. This is pretty cool too - my cat is staring at the speaker with a puzzled expression
	11:03am John Allen: Hey Sylvia, uh. really? That's not really how it goes here.
	11:04am Sylvia (France-NYC): my bad then, John Allen. I'm sorry.
	11:05am John Allen: oh forget it, the mood is over
	11:07am Mister Dobalina: Love me some Arthur Russell!
	11:12am steveo: amazing track
	11:12am slugluv1313: YES loving this Arthur Russell
	👻 11:12am Handy Haversack: I upgraded the rotary phone -- new one's a beaut! Sweet dialing action! Might slow me down trying to call in to do the legal on Ken's show, though ...

	11:19am Doug in JC: @Handy My friend used to have a payphone in his house. Apparently they work like normal phones if you just hook it up to your house line
	👻 11:20am Jason from Houston: So fine...
	11:21am Mister Dobalina: Gosh, sure is chilly willy out here today. Thank goodness we have these warm tunes to keep us alive.
	👻 11:22am Jason from Houston: Local shop had a copy of Inside Story last week and I pumped the brakes on it for no good reason. Ugh.
	👻 11:22am Handy Haversack: The previous rotary had a hardwired, er, wire -- not a modular jack, so I could not replace the cord as it wore out without learning more than I need to learn, Doug. Found a nice one with a modular jack when we were upstate a couple of weeks back. Rotary phone dialing seems to work fine over fiber-optic cable! What a world!
	11:24am Doug in JC: Feel free to consult me next time you have a 2 or more wire project :) I'll make sure you learn as little as possible.
	👻 11:26am Handy Haversack: It's a deal! Also, someone posted this blog to Trouble's board yesterday: meadowblog.net . Let's get out there this spring!
