	7:41pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "A Song in Praise of the People's Liberation Army"... music's is already playing sits down at the desk clicks on the Bodega Pop playlist clicks on the pop_up confused why there is all of a sudden a drop in the music for 15 seconds I'm a creature of habit and easily confused...
	7:42pm Gary: NGH!
	7:56pm zzz: greeting @DJ Gary and all
	🇰🇷 7:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Evening.
	8:02pm northguineahills: your pronunciation started so well, and then you tensed up!
	8:05pm Gary: RevRab!
	8:06pm Gary: ↳ northguineahills @8:02 Self-fulfilling mispronunciation anxiety!
	8:06pm Gary: ZZZ!
	8:18pm adamdoesit: Hi DJ Gary and bodegliani! Can I get some jumping beans with this jumping dance?
	8:18pm Gary: AdamDoesIt!
	8:19pm northguineahills: ↳ Gary @8:06 not only your pronunciation, but your accent was on point as well at first. I have the same problem, I'll start pronouncing everything w/ the correct accent and I realize there's a native speaker and I revert to anglo-gringoisms...(no matter the language)
	8:25pm Listener Gregory: Just checking in to note that I am not here tonight, sadly.
	8:26pm Gary: Gregory!
	8:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:25 we left you your spot on the sofa....
	8:33pm Listener Gregory: It’s a shame, really, because the show is sounding so good I really wish I were listening to it.
	8:34pm peter: This one’s quite a recording!!
	8:35pm Gary: Peter, this one was recorded digitally for CD but also released on a cassette, which is what I've got. The sound is great -- but wow, wait until the end -- the performance just keeps building
	8:39pm peter: Yeah if the mellow portion is this striking, …
	🇰🇷 8:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The truism latched onto is that the Alap - the slow soulful part of a Raga @ the beginning - is how they're really judged. Fwiw.
	8:42pm Dean: These are the younger Dagars?
	8:43pm Gary: Dean! I think it's an elder and a younger?
	8:44pm Listener Gregory: Is this a Dagar I see before me, CD towards my hand?
	8:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @8:44 nice....
	🇰🇷 8:50pm WR: Hi Gary, have been listening as I was cooking and then eating but now I am just listening.
	8:51pm Gary: WR! I hear you've got the Covid but not so bad. Hope it stays that way and then stays away
	8:53pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Raga Kambojhi" by "N. Zahiruddin Dagar and F. Was... Dhrupad 💜🕉️💜 greetings, Gary! Bodega patrons! been lurking, listening, so loving all of these beautiful selections 😻😻 pretty sure i have this CD -- but wracking my brain, bc i think i saw Faiyaz Wasifuddin Dagar many years ago -- maybe at one of the Chhandayan All Night concerts?? (used to volunteer for those, so miss doing that)
	8:54pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Raga Kambojhi" by "N. Zahiruddin Dagar and F. Was... CRANKING IT!!!
	8:54pm Gary: ↳ Dean @8:42 Dean, I did some searching and actually the elder in this duet is one half of the "Younger" Dagar brothers. The son, N. Zahiruddin, is the young of the Younger
	8:55pm Gary: Slugluv! Lucky you to have seen him live!
	8:55pm Dean: A Dagar empire! I bet they could kick the King Family's ass. In any event, nepotism works.
	🇰🇷 8:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "Raga Kambojhi" by "N. Zahiruddin Dagar and F. Was... thanks for the health wishes. These guys got some interesting stereo vocal droning going on.
	8:58pm zzz: ↳ slugluv1313 @8:53 nice i imagine seeing this live would be spellbinding
	8:58pm Dean: There are two or three Dagar recordings on Raga Records that just blow me away. Prior to this I was listening to the great Irish tenor John McCormack singing folk songs in 1906 and '07. So different from this, but then not.
	8:59pm slugluv1313: ↳ Gary @8:54 yes, i had to look this up too!! F. Wasifuddin is son of N. Zahiruddin :)
	9:00pm Gary: ↳ slugluv1313 @8:59 Yes! I was wrong, I had the wrong guy as son.
	9:00pm Gary: BUT IT'S THEIR OWN FAULT FOR CALLING THE OLDER PEOPLE YOUNGER
	9:02pm Listener Gregory: Transition from the raga to the fiddle music was perfect.
	9:03pm Dean: Kids these days. Don't miss the Senior Dagar Bros. on Raga.
	🇰🇷 9:03pm chresti: Must've weighed a lot-that cassette
	9:04pm still b/p: Whoa whoa....just got here and what's all the yelling? Boy, boy, crazy boy Stay loose, boy! Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it Turn off the juice, boy!
	9:05pm slugluv1313: ↳ Gary @9:00 oops i think i goofed! F. Wasifuddin Dagar is the NEPHEW of N. Zahiruddin Dagar -- who was one half of the Younger/Junior Dagar Brothers
	9:08pm Listener Gregory: You say Wassifudin, I say tomahto. Let’s call the whole thing off!
	9:09pm slugluv1313: ↳ zzz @8:58 yes! truly! (i loved volunteering for the Chhandayan concerts, you were totally transported to another state of being . . . if that makes any sense!)
	9:09pm zzz: i like that you are a cassette person, Gary. I am trying to bring myself back into being a cassette person after like 20 years without a means to play my boxes of tapes. picked up a Sony TC-WE305 dual tape deck in nice looking shape from someone on the street for $15 the other day. it turned on but no spin. i opened it up and the belts were mush. ordered some new belts and we will see if youtube can guide me into fixing this. then, maybe, we jam!
	9:10pm Gary: Still b/p!
	9:10pm Gary: ↳ zzz @9:09 Oh, that's awesome, zzz -- good luck getting it up and spinning!
	9:10pm zzz: ↳ slugluv1313 @9:09 very cool. what kind of venues were these shows at?
	🇰🇷 9:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Crazy busy evening but wanted to say how much I love tonight's show. Finally getting around to dinner. Clickystar episode...again!
	9:14pm Dean: Now I feel like an idiot, because F. Wasifuddin Dagar is my next door neighbor. I met him through Kevin Bacon, who goes to the same auto repair shop I use.
	9:14pm Gary: Threemoons!
	9:15pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:14 Wait, whoa, what? Your neighbor? Dang, man, that's amazing
	9:17pm zzz: ↳ Dean @9:14 1 degree! my wife was just showing me videos of kevin bacon and kyra sedgwick singing/playing songs together, charming couple they are!
	🇰🇷 9:18pm chresti: ↳ zzz @9:09 I have a no-spin cassette player also. I wonder how much repair vs buying a new one would be?
	9:22pm Dean: I am joking, which is what I often do. Sorry. I'd hoped for a big guffaw.
	9:22pm Listener Gregory: That game, six degrees from Wasifuddin, is a lot of fun.
	9:22pm Dean: But, not joking, I actually interviewed Kevin Bacon's personal assistant in the '90s.
	9:23pm Gary: Dean, why you gotta Wasifuddin us like that? It's like a Dagar in the -- etc.
	9:24pm zzz: chresti not sure i will be successful, but if it’s just a problem with the belts, and the machinery seems to work, then replacements can be had for like $10. replacement looks pretty easy based on youtube clips. but beyond that, no idea!!
	9:25pm Listener Gregory: I got a Bandcamp ad for a record to be released digitally and on “limited edition cassette.” It had better be limited edition, because who owns a working cassette player nowadays? I understand why you would want to play existing cassettes, but should any more be brought into existence?
	🇰🇷 9:25pm chresti: Belts you say? hmmmm
	🇰🇷 9:26pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 Right?
	🇰🇷 9:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ugh moving parts. As if being human didn't involve enuff of that as it is.
	9:26pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 Haha, it's a thing now, tho, Dean -- not exactly a major resurgence, but the kids are putting stuff out on cassette. There's also this new French version of the Walkman out there -- lemme see if I can find it
	9:27pm Gary: Found em! www.wearerewind.com
	9:27pm still b/p: I'm daunted by the expectation that it IS rocket science, so I don't try to fix my dormant and undiagnosed 70s Kenwood and Aiwa decks meself. I do have a working cassette Walkman.
	9:27pm Listener Gregory: Moving parts are a problem. And then there are the parts that aren’t supposed to move but do anyway. Oy!
	🇰🇷 9:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...almost just makes one want to make yer own gawdammed Musics...
	9:31pm still b/p: In a mostly sucky movie, a mechanic gives Michael J. Fox the word that his Porsche is repaired and ready, and gives him a small box with rattley bits in it: "There's always some extra parts when I put 'em back together. Don't know why."
	9:31pm slugluv1313: ↳ zzz @9:10 at first, one of the smaller buildings at NYC's Cathedral of St. John The Divine -- later, Chhandayan started holding the concerts at the New York Society for Ethical Culture (which may still be their venue? i am so terribly out if the loop! i also volunteered with World Music Institute too -- Dagar may have performed through WMI too?)
	9:31pm Dean: Twenty years ago or so I bought a cassette player, NAD, but I've never used it. It remains pristinely packaged. Longer ago, I had a great Nakamichi player, but not the Dragon, which is what I wanted.
	9:31pm Listener Gregory: I had a very nice cassette of jazz-meets-Indian music (John Handy), which I really liked. I thought it was playing some weird non-Western scales until I realized that the tapes had stretched and distorted the music. That seldom happens w CDs.
	🇰🇷 9:32pm chresti: ↳ still b/p @9:27 Our home is filled with faulty appliances and audio equipment in need of parts like fuses and belts and needles
	9:34pm slugluv1313: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:22 yes, especially considering there are something like 20 generations . . . !
	9:34pm zzz: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 i’ve seen at least 1 musician/small label owner taking about how production of LPs is too expensive, too complicated with pressing plants (now competing with major labels doing huge runs of classic rock reisssues e.g.) and supply chain issues, costly to mail etc. and that costs for producing and mailing CDs and tapes is so much lower. i guess it’s for the physical media types (raises hand). i still buy CDs but haven’t gone there with new tapes yet, don’t think i will, but i have a bunch of cool things in a box here
	🇰🇷 9:34pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:31 Yep
	🇰🇷 9:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Musics - btw - be totally bitchen.
	9:36pm peter: As someone who buys music predominantly on cassette, I still have to agree with the sentiment of bewilderment at their return as a format! Spent soo much time, money, etc. in upkeep of equipment and carriers trying to migrate all this music to digital.. sheesh! I mean I love doing it, but I can’t imagine someone wanting to keep with it for music that’s all readily available in every other format
	9:37pm still b/p: I have a plastic bin or two full of unopened parts for professional and consumer video equipment from 1980s-2000s. What am I bid? I repurposed some of them for entirely non-video projects and assemblages.
	9:37pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:36 Peter, what cassette player are you using now?
	9:38pm peter: (Tiny labels wanting to put out new tapes for reasons of cost, though, I kind of get that)
	9:38pm peter: Nakamichi BX-1
	9:38pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:38 Dang
	9:39pm northguineahills: ↳ still b/p @9:31 doc hollywood?
	🇰🇷 9:39pm chresti: Most of the cassettes I have are from radio I've recorded since the late 70s and then mixtapes.
	9:39pm Dean: I have a copy---in fact the only copy---of a cassette a friend and I produced c.'80. It's our band Shit Church. Post-punk a la Gang of Four, but juvenile.
	🇰🇷 9:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think the only thing I miss about Analog is how straightforward it is - here's a signal - here's a cord - I plug this into that - it's all playable recordable whatever - on whatever. For people better with Digital - I'm sure this is no problem. But I find it frustrating.
	9:41pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:39 Shit Church! Dean, you better not be Wasifuddin us, because that is too awesome!
	9:41pm Dean: I wrote a poem about the superiority of analogue over digital.
	9:42pm zzz: ↳ chresti @9:39 yes i have these unlabeled mix tapes here that i’m sure would be a trip to hear again.
	9:42pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:41 Let's hear it!
	9:42pm zzz: Shit Church!
	9:43pm Dean: If I can locate it, and if I can digitize it, I'll send it your way post haste.
	9:44pm still b/p: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 Yes, yes! You win Sucky Movie Jeopardy!
	9:45pm northguineahills: for someone who's not into art as permanence (as an object), I'm still really into the festishment of the packaging of the recorded sound medium object, and the ephemera associated w/ it...
	9:46pm northguineahills: ↳ still b/p @9:44 yes, I won at something! (but trivia is the only thing I'm good at)
	🇰🇷 9:46pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:39 Make more copies?
	9:47pm Gary: Hey Punks! Ask yourself: Is there "Always a Horse for the Morsel"? Well, if we believe the always-already DJin' Sam Segal, there is, and tonight he'll prove it with an episode of his Emmy Award-Winning radio broadcast If You Lose Your Horse, tonight at 10 PM sharp! wfmu.org...
	9:47pm Listener Gregory: Never heard Shit Church, but the easy-listening spinoff Fart Temple was pretty good.
	9:48pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 How about the cassingle-only one-hit wonder Poot Wat?
	🇰🇷 9:48pm chresti: ↳ still b/p @9:44 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...speaking of the Digital age ...not band names I'ma websearch...
	9:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 you should see their skatathedral...
	9:49pm Listener Gregory: Came late, leaving early, but I really enjoyed the middle of the show. Thanks a lot, Gary! Some day I’ll figure out what the theme was.
	🇰🇷 9:49pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course the Church has been in decline since the publishing of the 'Origin of the Feces'...
	9:50pm Gary: Gregory, it's about a boy and his little dog dying --
	9:50pm Gary: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 Winner
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Gary @9:50 scatathredral works fine...
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 and points to Rev Rabbit!
	🇰🇷 9:50pm chresti: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:54pm chresti: In fact, a hearty haha for all the above!
	🇰🇷 9:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Spailpín A Rúin" by "Willie Clancy" Ah. My good friend Anton plays the Pipes. Not unlike this.
	🇰🇷 9:58pm chresti: I have/had one tape from '73 of friends playing music for a soundtrack to a movie shot with a (regular as opposed to a super) 8 camera.
	9:58pm northguineahills: Gary! Gracias!
	9:58pm slugluv1313: yes!! haha to all of the above!
	🇰🇷 9:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Gary ~
	9:58pm zzz: thanks DJ GS!
	🇰🇷 9:58pm chresti: hi slugluv!
	🇰🇷 9:59pm WR: wait, I thought bodegas are open nearly always 24 hours. Thank you! Gary!
	🇰🇷 9:59pm chresti: Thanks Gary!
	9:59pm slugluv1313: phenomenal, Gary -- thanks so much! 🐱🐱
	10:00pm slugluv1313: ↳ chresti @9:58 hi chresti!
	10:00pm Gary: Night everyone!

	8:54pm slugluv1313: ↳ Song: "Raga Kambojhi" by "N. Zahiruddin Dagar and F. Was... CRANKING IT!!!
	8:54pm Gary: ↳ Dean @8:42 Dean, I did some searching and actually the elder in this duet is one half of the "Younger" Dagar brothers. The son, N. Zahiruddin, is the young of the Younger
	8:55pm Gary: Slugluv! Lucky you to have seen him live!
	8:55pm Dean: A Dagar empire! I bet they could kick the King Family's ass. In any event, nepotism works.
	🇰🇷 8:56pm WR: ↳ Song: "Raga Kambojhi" by "N. Zahiruddin Dagar and F. Was... thanks for the health wishes. These guys got some interesting stereo vocal droning going on.
	8:58pm zzz: ↳ slugluv1313 @8:53 nice i imagine seeing this live would be spellbinding
	8:58pm Dean: There are two or three Dagar recordings on Raga Records that just blow me away. Prior to this I was listening to the great Irish tenor John McCormack singing folk songs in 1906 and '07. So different from this, but then not.
	8:59pm slugluv1313: ↳ Gary @8:54 yes, i had to look this up too!! F. Wasifuddin is son of N. Zahiruddin :)
	9:00pm Gary: ↳ slugluv1313 @8:59 Yes! I was wrong, I had the wrong guy as son.
	9:00pm Gary: BUT IT'S THEIR OWN FAULT FOR CALLING THE OLDER PEOPLE YOUNGER
	9:02pm Listener Gregory: Transition from the raga to the fiddle music was perfect.
	9:03pm Dean: Kids these days. Don't miss the Senior Dagar Bros. on Raga.
	🇰🇷 9:03pm chresti: Must've weighed a lot-that cassette
	9:04pm still b/p: Whoa whoa....just got here and what's all the yelling? Boy, boy, crazy boy Stay loose, boy! Breeze it, buzz it, easy does it Turn off the juice, boy!
	9:05pm slugluv1313: ↳ Gary @9:00 oops i think i goofed! F. Wasifuddin Dagar is the NEPHEW of N. Zahiruddin Dagar -- who was one half of the Younger/Junior Dagar Brothers
	9:08pm Listener Gregory: You say Wassifudin, I say tomahto. Let’s call the whole thing off!
	9:09pm slugluv1313: ↳ zzz @8:58 yes! truly! (i loved volunteering for the Chhandayan concerts, you were totally transported to another state of being . . . if that makes any sense!)
	9:09pm zzz: i like that you are a cassette person, Gary. I am trying to bring myself back into being a cassette person after like 20 years without a means to play my boxes of tapes. picked up a Sony TC-WE305 dual tape deck in nice looking shape from someone on the street for $15 the other day. it turned on but no spin. i opened it up and the belts were mush. ordered some new belts and we will see if youtube can guide me into fixing this. then, maybe, we jam!
	9:10pm Gary: Still b/p!
	9:10pm Gary: ↳ zzz @9:09 Oh, that's awesome, zzz -- good luck getting it up and spinning!
	9:10pm zzz: ↳ slugluv1313 @9:09 very cool. what kind of venues were these shows at?
	🇰🇷 9:14pm Threemoons 🌛🌕🌜: Crazy busy evening but wanted to say how much I love tonight's show. Finally getting around to dinner. Clickystar episode...again!
	9:14pm Dean: Now I feel like an idiot, because F. Wasifuddin Dagar is my next door neighbor. I met him through Kevin Bacon, who goes to the same auto repair shop I use.
	9:14pm Gary: Threemoons!
	9:15pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:14 Wait, whoa, what? Your neighbor? Dang, man, that's amazing
	9:17pm zzz: ↳ Dean @9:14 1 degree! my wife was just showing me videos of kevin bacon and kyra sedgwick singing/playing songs together, charming couple they are!
	🇰🇷 9:18pm chresti: ↳ zzz @9:09 I have a no-spin cassette player also. I wonder how much repair vs buying a new one would be?
	9:22pm Dean: I am joking, which is what I often do. Sorry. I'd hoped for a big guffaw.
	9:22pm Listener Gregory: That game, six degrees from Wasifuddin, is a lot of fun.
	9:22pm Dean: But, not joking, I actually interviewed Kevin Bacon's personal assistant in the '90s.
	9:23pm Gary: Dean, why you gotta Wasifuddin us like that? It's like a Dagar in the -- etc.
	9:24pm zzz: chresti not sure i will be successful, but if it’s just a problem with the belts, and the machinery seems to work, then replacements can be had for like $10. replacement looks pretty easy based on youtube clips. but beyond that, no idea!!
	9:25pm Listener Gregory: I got a Bandcamp ad for a record to be released digitally and on “limited edition cassette.” It had better be limited edition, because who owns a working cassette player nowadays? I understand why you would want to play existing cassettes, but should any more be brought into existence?
	🇰🇷 9:25pm chresti: Belts you say? hmmmm
	🇰🇷 9:26pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 Right?
	🇰🇷 9:26pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Ugh moving parts. As if being human didn't involve enuff of that as it is.
	9:26pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 Haha, it's a thing now, tho, Dean -- not exactly a major resurgence, but the kids are putting stuff out on cassette. There's also this new French version of the Walkman out there -- lemme see if I can find it
	9:27pm Gary: Found em! www.wearerewind.com
	9:27pm still b/p: I'm daunted by the expectation that it IS rocket science, so I don't try to fix my dormant and undiagnosed 70s Kenwood and Aiwa decks meself. I do have a working cassette Walkman.
	9:27pm Listener Gregory: Moving parts are a problem. And then there are the parts that aren’t supposed to move but do anyway. Oy!
	🇰🇷 9:30pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...almost just makes one want to make yer own gawdammed Musics...
	9:31pm still b/p: In a mostly sucky movie, a mechanic gives Michael J. Fox the word that his Porsche is repaired and ready, and gives him a small box with rattley bits in it: "There's always some extra parts when I put 'em back together. Don't know why."
	9:31pm slugluv1313: ↳ zzz @9:10 at first, one of the smaller buildings at NYC's Cathedral of St. John The Divine -- later, Chhandayan started holding the concerts at the New York Society for Ethical Culture (which may still be their venue? i am so terribly out if the loop! i also volunteered with World Music Institute too -- Dagar may have performed through WMI too?)
	9:31pm Dean: Twenty years ago or so I bought a cassette player, NAD, but I've never used it. It remains pristinely packaged. Longer ago, I had a great Nakamichi player, but not the Dragon, which is what I wanted.
	9:31pm Listener Gregory: I had a very nice cassette of jazz-meets-Indian music (John Handy), which I really liked. I thought it was playing some weird non-Western scales until I realized that the tapes had stretched and distorted the music. That seldom happens w CDs.
	🇰🇷 9:32pm chresti: ↳ still b/p @9:27 Our home is filled with faulty appliances and audio equipment in need of parts like fuses and belts and needles
	9:34pm slugluv1313: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:22 yes, especially considering there are something like 20 generations . . . !
	9:34pm zzz: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:25 i’ve seen at least 1 musician/small label owner taking about how production of LPs is too expensive, too complicated with pressing plants (now competing with major labels doing huge runs of classic rock reisssues e.g.) and supply chain issues, costly to mail etc. and that costs for producing and mailing CDs and tapes is so much lower. i guess it’s for the physical media types (raises hand). i still buy CDs but haven’t gone there with new tapes yet, don’t think i will, but i have a bunch of cool things in a box here
	🇰🇷 9:34pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:31 Yep
	🇰🇷 9:34pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: The Musics - btw - be totally bitchen.
	9:36pm peter: As someone who buys music predominantly on cassette, I still have to agree with the sentiment of bewilderment at their return as a format! Spent soo much time, money, etc. in upkeep of equipment and carriers trying to migrate all this music to digital.. sheesh! I mean I love doing it, but I can’t imagine someone wanting to keep with it for music that’s all readily available in every other format
	9:37pm still b/p: I have a plastic bin or two full of unopened parts for professional and consumer video equipment from 1980s-2000s. What am I bid? I repurposed some of them for entirely non-video projects and assemblages.
	9:37pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:36 Peter, what cassette player are you using now?
	9:38pm peter: (Tiny labels wanting to put out new tapes for reasons of cost, though, I kind of get that)
	9:38pm peter: Nakamichi BX-1
	9:38pm Gary: ↳ peter @9:38 Dang
	9:39pm northguineahills: ↳ still b/p @9:31 doc hollywood?
	🇰🇷 9:39pm chresti: Most of the cassettes I have are from radio I've recorded since the late 70s and then mixtapes.
	9:39pm Dean: I have a copy---in fact the only copy---of a cassette a friend and I produced c.'80. It's our band Shit Church. Post-punk a la Gang of Four, but juvenile.
	🇰🇷 9:40pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: I think the only thing I miss about Analog is how straightforward it is - here's a signal - here's a cord - I plug this into that - it's all playable recordable whatever - on whatever. For people better with Digital - I'm sure this is no problem. But I find it frustrating.
	9:41pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:39 Shit Church! Dean, you better not be Wasifuddin us, because that is too awesome!
	9:41pm Dean: I wrote a poem about the superiority of analogue over digital.
	9:42pm zzz: ↳ chresti @9:39 yes i have these unlabeled mix tapes here that i’m sure would be a trip to hear again.
	9:42pm Gary: ↳ Dean @9:41 Let's hear it!
	9:42pm zzz: Shit Church!
	9:43pm Dean: If I can locate it, and if I can digitize it, I'll send it your way post haste.
	9:44pm still b/p: ↳ northguineahills @9:39 Yes, yes! You win Sucky Movie Jeopardy!
	9:45pm northguineahills: for someone who's not into art as permanence (as an object), I'm still really into the festishment of the packaging of the recorded sound medium object, and the ephemera associated w/ it...
	9:46pm northguineahills: ↳ still b/p @9:44 yes, I won at something! (but trivia is the only thing I'm good at)
	🇰🇷 9:46pm chresti: ↳ Dean @9:39 Make more copies?
	9:47pm Gary: Hey Punks! Ask yourself: Is there "Always a Horse for the Morsel"? Well, if we believe the always-already DJin' Sam Segal, there is, and tonight he'll prove it with an episode of his Emmy Award-Winning radio broadcast If You Lose Your Horse, tonight at 10 PM sharp! wfmu.org...
	9:47pm Listener Gregory: Never heard Shit Church, but the easy-listening spinoff Fart Temple was pretty good.
	9:48pm Gary: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 How about the cassingle-only one-hit wonder Poot Wat?
	🇰🇷 9:48pm chresti: ↳ still b/p @9:44 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...speaking of the Digital age ...not band names I'ma websearch...
	9:48pm northguineahills: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 you should see their skatathedral...
	9:49pm Listener Gregory: Came late, leaving early, but I really enjoyed the middle of the show. Thanks a lot, Gary! Some day I’ll figure out what the theme was.
	🇰🇷 9:49pm chresti: ↳ Listener Gregory @9:47 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:50pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...course the Church has been in decline since the publishing of the 'Origin of the Feces'...
	9:50pm Gary: Gregory, it's about a boy and his little dog dying --
	9:50pm Gary: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 Winner
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Gary @9:50 scatathredral works fine...
	9:50pm northguineahills: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 and points to Rev Rabbit!
	🇰🇷 9:50pm chresti: ↳ Revolution Rabbit Nov63 @9:50 Haha
	🇰🇷 9:54pm chresti: In fact, a hearty haha for all the above!
	🇰🇷 9:57pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ↳ Song: "Spailpín A Rúin" by "Willie Clancy" Ah. My good friend Anton plays the Pipes. Not unlike this.
	🇰🇷 9:58pm chresti: I have/had one tape from '73 of friends playing music for a soundtrack to a movie shot with a (regular as opposed to a super) 8 camera.
	9:58pm northguineahills: Gary! Gracias!
	9:58pm slugluv1313: yes!! haha to all of the above!
	🇰🇷 9:58pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ TY Always DJ Gary ~
	9:58pm zzz: thanks DJ GS!
	🇰🇷 9:58pm chresti: hi slugluv!
	🇰🇷 9:59pm WR: wait, I thought bodegas are open nearly always 24 hours. Thank you! Gary!
	🇰🇷 9:59pm chresti: Thanks Gary!
	9:59pm slugluv1313: phenomenal, Gary -- thanks so much! 🐱🐱
	10:00pm slugluv1313: ↳ chresti @9:58 hi chresti!
	10:00pm Gary: Night everyone!
