	👻 9:07am doctorjazz: (I need some marching band music in my collection...)
	👻 9:07am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Charles, Count of Cook @9:03 It's the static between stations that they like! www.youtube.com...
	9:07am PKNY: ↳ Song: "Kashmir" by "The 2016 Cadets" Kinda disappointed that they teased the middle breakdown in this, but didn't go full in
	👻 9:08am Webhamster Henry: I have some albums of demos of marching band music arrangements that are great fun!
	9:08am G: I'm hearing a lot of high school marching bands practicing while marching along side streets here in our New Orleans neighborhood. Mardi Gras parades start early this year, late January.
	9:09am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Crazy Train" by "The 9th Ward Marching Band" scott williams dropped this one 8 years ago!
	👻 9:09am Charles, Count of Cook: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:06 i have one of these - a little expensive but better than buying canned air metrovac.com...
	👻 9:09am pgalub: Morning everyone. Don't Fear The Tuba.
	9:10am love2laf: Marching Band Monday has begun, it's the new craze taking over from all the greats: Mellencamp Monday, Summer Of Segar, Frampton February.
	9:10am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" by "Florida State Univer... Artillery size cowbell.
	9:10am Michael: This is great. I went through a whole 1970s stage band period
	9:10am dday: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:08 I had an LP from a series done in the 60's at Carnegie Hall. One side was my hometown Garfield Cadets (NJ), the other Blessed Sacrament from CA. There were other bands recorded & released as well. Marching band competitions were a big thing where I'm from in the 60's . Attended many with my Dad
	9:11am TerrDE: Good morning Joe, Yippies Yipsters and Yippettes... is Ken sitting in ? If not he's jealous
	👻 9:11am chresti: Nothing like marching band music to get you going!
	9:11am wendy del formaggio: This is a pretty excellent way to wake up. Thank you, Joe McGasko.
	9:12am Joe B: love hearing the stadium announcements in the background on this one. recorded live at halftime!
	👻 9:12am Charles, Count of Cook: ↳ dday @9:10 Somewhere I have a Eugene Chadbourne "Marching Band Nightmares" CD
	9:12am Handy Haversack: I wish I had ideas as good as "I think I'll open with a bunch of rock anthems played by marching bands." frinkiac.com...
	9:13am Strandlund: Crap...the one day I forget my baton...
	👻 9:13am Zip7: This is a total hoot. "Artillery size cowbell" indeed
	9:13am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Charles, Count of Cook @9:09 I'm actually looking for something like that. I bought a crappy "USB" vaccuum cleaner that is marginally useful for ~$40.
	9:13am wendy del formaggio: I wonder if any marching band has covered Metallica’s “Orion.” That would be pretty cool. \m/
	👻 9:14am DjLorraine: I'm so glad i joined Joe's band practice.
	9:14am Edgar from Maine: ↳ wendy del formaggio @9:13 I think Metallica just had a competetion for bands playing "Battery"
	9:15am dday: ↳ Charles, Count of Cook @9:12 My nephew played quad toms in H.S. I bought him his first drum kit (Tama, Zildjian) years ago. He played in a few local bands not sure if he's still playing though.
	9:15am TVP: This reminds that I bought from a record store in Madison, WI a CD of fight songs/alma maters as played by the UMichigan marching band.
	👻 9:15am Listener Bryan (the Professor): morning, joe, radio yips, and all marching musicians
	👻 9:15am Gregosaurus: TUSK!!!
	9:15am northguineahills: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:12 frinkiac isn't firewalled at work!
	9:15am TerrDE: Mardi Gras, when everyone else jumps up squat down .1/2 the time the beads are knocked out of everyone's hands reaching for them, by everyone else
	9:15am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:14 variety.com...
	👻 9:15am doctorjazz: ↳ pgalub @9:09 I'm a believer that tuba bass was dropped too soon, love when it's used!
	9:15am dday: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:14 Lots of brass instruments covering Metallica & the like is truly "heavy metal"
	9:16am Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" I bet the owls look adorable carrying their little instruments.
	9:16am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: ↳ DjLorraine @9:14 The $64 question is, who's the most subversive DJ on Woof Moo.
	9:16am TVP: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" Also, IIRC, this is the exact same version of the song that plays in The Naked Gun.
	9:16am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" i played this in marching band!
	9:16am A Bee: 3 hours of marching bands please!
	👻 9:17am Charles, Count of Cook: ↳ dday @9:15 I was performing for a while with a gamelan ensemble and I enjoyed telling people I was in an 18-piece metal band
	9:17am D Rok: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" This was always the MOST boring song to play in marching band in the trombone section. Just ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, for three minutes.
	9:17am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" This is taking me back to my own marching band/pep band experience. Louie Louie was endemic.
	👻 9:17am Charles, Count of Cook: ↳ Charles, Count of Cook @9:17 (actually a bunch of the Indonesians I met really like heavy metal, like the guitar kind I mean)
	9:17am Edgar from Maine: ↳ dday @9:15 But then the glockenspiels kind of ruin it.
	👻 9:17am doctorjazz: Monica always featured some marching band music on her show, great to hear some here!
	9:18am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:17 When you're in a marching band, can you hear the whole sound, or only your immediate surrounds?
	9:18am luka: ↳ Song: "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What Y... hot shit!
	9:18am wendy del formaggio: @Edgar from Maine: HOLY CRAP! Thank you.
	9:19am Edgar from Maine: Any time Wendy!
	👻 9:19am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Song: "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What Y... This is on YouTube if you want to look it up. And greetings, fellow nerds!
	👻 9:20am Ken From Hyde Park: Marching band trivia question: What song was the band playing in the Animal House movie when Stork marched them into the dead-end street?
	👻 9:20am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "You Can't Get What You Want (Till You Know What Y... Fighting Blue Hens? The chickens are revolting!
	9:20am Joe McG: ↳ nycmusicnerd @9:19 I got this from one of you guys! Good marching band morning to you!
	👻 9:20am Hughie Considine: More truth from Joe Jackson, who also said it's different for girls and you gotta look sharp.
	9:20am Hawkeye: Looking forward to seeing Joe at the Apollo in June! Hopefully with this band?
	9:20am D Rok: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:18 You can usually hear nearly all of it pretty well, but the brass tends to dominate. Playing Trombone, I usually heard mostly the rest of my section, the drums, and the trumpets. But when we would actually march in a parade, trombones were always in the front, so I'd hear the rest of the band behind me pretty well.
	👻 9:21am nycmusicnerd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @9:19 Here's the YouTube link: www.youtube.com...
	9:21am TerrDE: A guy w a Tuba and a looper opened for Buckethead at TLA a while back. He heard me when I yelled "John Philip Sousa or I'll cut ya" from the uppermost balcony. He laughed
	9:21am luka: this all reminds me of a guy i new in college that would go to sleep with sousa marches at high volume
	9:21am Cyn: OMG thank you thank you! I found you on the dial with you July 4th marching band set ONE HUNDRED years ago and replayed for some time. You turned me into a marching band freak!!! This is what happens when one is a stoner under the bleachers in high school. I still hate sports, though.
	👻 9:21am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Hawkeye @9:20 I'll be at one of those JJ shows too. I'm also catching him at Tarrytown. First show of the tour!
	👻 9:22am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Eye of the Tiger" by "Larkin High School Band" man they really kicked this into high gear
	9:22am TerrDE: Hawkeye, you do know its a tribute to Music Halls.?
	9:22am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:18 Just the immediate sound mostly, and whiffs of other sounds as the blocks drill past one another. Phasing is a big issue in marching bands.
	9:22am Vanessa bikes: Have you seen this one? https://chromaticdreamers.com/japanese-school-bands-and-music-education/
	9:23am Aqui: Brings back my sousaphone days.
	👻 9:23am DjLorraine: ↳ Peter from Saranac Lake NY @9:16 I'm gonna stay tuned and keep trying to figure it out
	9:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @9:22 Wild. I can only imagine.
	9:24am Handy Haversack: ↳ D Rok @9:20 Cool. My sister played clarinet in her HS band. My HS didn't have a band at all. Wild stuff!
	9:24am Hooray!: I have always dreamed of an all-marching band station
	9:24am FletcherNYC: ❤️❤️❤️I drummed in the FSU Marching band in the 80’s
	9:25am Joe B: ↳ Song: "Tusk" by "University of Southern California Troja... i got to see this band in person for a game at the LA Coliseum. they turned it into a 'UCLA sucks' chant
	9:25am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Back That Thang Up" by "Norfolk State University ... "Back That Thang Up" sounds like dangerous instructions for a marching band.
	9:25am Joe McG: ↳ Joe B @9:25 Yeah, they do that now all the time!
	👻 9:25am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Joe B @9:25 That is classic! Haha!
	9:26am Joe B: ↳ Joe McG @9:25 any time USC started moving the ball, they would do the Tusk drum intro only. ia well-executed recurring theme!
	9:26am Aqui: I stumbled on a bunch of 5th graders in Thailand playing Hawaii 5-0 outdoors. No marching but pretty good for little kids. TV themes always ring true.
	9:27am Edgar from Maine: I have an image of hundreds of WFMU interns searching frantically for Moth Cock renditions by marching bands.
	9:27am TVP: ↳ Song: "Back That Thang Up" by "Norfolk State University ... Oh man, I remember when Norfolk State played Rutgers about a decade back; their marching band was awesome (as to be expected for an HBCU). I remember a bunch of RU fans were struggling to get the wave going, so the Norfolk band just slowly and methodically stood up and sat down from their seats, and the wave really got going then and there.
	9:27am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Tusk" by "University of Southern California Troja... The Croods movie was on heavy rotation in the house for awhile. It took me way too long to realize that this was the main theme.
	👻 9:28am Ken From Hyde Park: The steel drum band playing "Transmission" is pretty neat. <hint hint>
	👻 9:28am nycmusicnerd: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
	9:29am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:24 I played alto saxophone in marching band for two years, then I switched to quads. Quads are fun!
	9:29am Franco Twinkie: Hi Joe! This is so fine. In late December I went to the farmers market in South Pasadena. Their marching band was playing for the crowd in preparation for The Rose Parade. It was so intense! I stood as close as I could to get the full sonic effect. The crowd had surrounded them and was screaming and yelling. It made me feel like I did when I would go and see a great, incredibly loud band in a club.
	9:29am northguineahills: ↳ TerrDE @9:21 nice!
	9:29am Brendan: Good morning Joe & all. If you get a chance, check out Meute, a techno marching band from Germany (https://youtu.be/fKFbnhcNnjE?si=DagrsTu-gGPpSqh7).
	9:29am Clincher16": OK, by now this has gone on way longer than any halftime show. "As the players tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yeild...."
	9:30am Clincher16": ↳ Clincher16" @9:29 Correction: YIELD
	9:31am Joe M: Just brilliant Joe! Then again, it does remind me of the middle school jazz band that insisted on playing “proud” Mary well into the late 70s
	9:31am Chris Hiatt: Well, that's one way to get the week up and rolling! Fun set.
	9:31am luka: ↳ nycmusicnerd @9:28 the correct response to any rendition of “sweet caroline”
	9:32am Aqui: I hope it doesn’t end here.
	9:32am G: ↳ luka @9:31 American League East fanbases tend to hate Sweet Caroline, because the Red Sox use it so much.
	👻 9:32am Webhamster Henry: This set is right up there with groovy sitar covers!
	👻 9:32am Marley P. Dogg: Good morning Joe mcG an friends!
	9:33am Joe B: Texas A&M easily the best marching band I ever saw/heard!
	9:33am Doc from Memphis: I did enjoy that set Joe it was very cool
	9:34am luka: ↳ G @9:32 it’s spread everywhere because of them. apparently the England national football team even uses it now. dreadful.
	👻 9:34am nycmusicnerd: Ohio State did a tribute to Michael Jackson a few years ago where the band members did a moonwalk. I don't mean that the members moonwalked. They did a formation of a guy doing a moonwalk.
	9:35am Chris Hiatt: The African American predominant schools take it up to a whole new level. It's hard to just listen to the music though, the choreography is dazzling. Better to take in the whole package. Grambling State, Howard...
	9:35am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Joe B @9:33 They're good, but also kind of creepy with the whole military thing.
	9:35am Handy Haversack: "Throw down your sousaphones! For freedom!"
	9:36am Deano de los Muertos: Juvenile did Back that Azz Up!
	9:36am PKNY: ↳ Song: "Back That Thang Up" by "Norfolk State University ... Juvenile?
	👻 9:37am Webhamster Henry: There used to be a Marching band competition that was put on here in Kingston . Our city stadium is being restored, so who knows, maybe they'll be back!
	👻 9:37am nycmusicnerd: What blows my mind about the JJ cover is the "guitar" solo. If you watch the video, it's done by about 8 marimba players. In sync. It's incredible.
	9:39am Katharsis: hellos yip
	👻 9:39am Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b: ↳ Song: "Long Train Runnin'" by "Ohio University Marching ... Not much to do in Athens, OH but play sax and smoke dope.
	9:39am Handy Haversack: The seasons don't fear roughing the passer.
	9:40am Joe B: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:35 good point
	9:40am Chris Hiatt: Cadets used to be called Cadets of Bergen County.
	9:40am FletcherNYC: Cadets are from New Jersey!! Bergen County and previously Garfield
	9:41am Handy Haversack: We won't know till next Sunday, Joe.
	9:41am PKNY: Playoffs are still going on, @Joe!
	9:41am Edgar from Maine: Championship games are next weekend. Then in two weeks after the Super Bowl.
	9:42am Handy Haversack: SF or Detroit vs. Baltimore or Kansas City.
	9:42am listener 126464: Is there an early line on this year's Puppy Bowl?
	9:42am Asheville Jon: Feb 11
	9:42am Son Of Pantz: It's the Pirates vs the Jazz, Joe!
	9:42am A Bee: Lions!
	9:42am Spikey BXL: ↳ nycmusicnerd @9:37 Amazing watch, thanks for sharing
	👻 9:43am 2/3 of the Perrin Family: ↳ Song: "Long Train Runnin'" by "Ohio University Marching ... my alma mater
	👻 9:43am Deano de los Muertos: I’m someone that had no interest in watching any televised sport until around age 20, then fell weirdly in love with football and have been a fan almost another 20 years.
	9:43am KWilde: Ravens
	9:43am Edgar from Maine: LOL Baltimore Colts! It's the Ravens for quite a while now Joe.
	9:43am The Oscar: ↳ Son Of Pantz @9:42 "The Pirates vs. the Jazz" also describes a lot of WFMU programming!
	9:43am G: Colts moved to Indiana in the early 80s. Ravens in Baltimore now.
	9:43am D Rok: Baltimore is now the Ravens. The only NFL team named for a poem!
	9:43am Handy Haversack: Baltimore Ravens, Joe. Colts moved to Indy. Browns moved to Baltimore and became the Ravens. That was in the late nineties.
	9:43am Mike Sin: Side comment -- Favorite Super Bowl Halftime performances: 1. Prince 2. Bruno Mars
	👻 9:43am Deano de los Muertos: Colts 🫢
	9:44am kevlicki: Morning joe and all! When I spent winters in Austin in the early aughts I used to enjoy stopping at the field to watch/listen to the UT band practice. Gigantic groups with an amazing force
	9:44am Asheville Jon: Colts? it's not 1975
	9:44am ∫ydniuß: Go NY Dodgers!
	9:44am Local Bookie: would you like to place a wager on the game, Joe?
	9:44am Joe B: ↳ Mike Sin @9:43 not Al Hirt/Carol Channing?
	9:44am Joe McG: ↳ Local Bookie @9:44 Ha ha! Yes, I'll take Green Bay to win.
	9:44am Son Of Pantz: ↳ The Oscar @9:43 I believe I'd enjoy some Adam Ant vs Charlie Parker.
	9:44am @blackwillowyoga: Dude, the colts haven’t been from Baltimore since before you were born. It’s the ravens.
	9:44am Edgar from Maine: Technically the Ravens are the former Cleveland Browns, who left Cleveland for Baltimore after the Colts left Baltimore for Indy. The Browns name stayed in Cleveland and the former Browns were re-dubbed the Ravens.
	9:45am Joe McG: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 Maybe it's been more than 2 years since I watched football. :)
	9:45am Brendan: This may be TMI but there was a question recently on Jeopardy about the need to routinely drain spit from the French horn, and the associated procedure.
	👻 9:45am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Joe McG @9:44 Easy money!
	9:45am Edgar from Maine: The current Cleveland Browns are (technically) an expansion team.
	9:45am Joe McG: ↳ D Rok @9:43 That's pretty cool!
	9:45am Joe B: ↳ @blackwillowyoga @9:44 1983
	9:45am Spikey BXL: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 Ravens as per Edgar Allan Poe, if I am not mistaken
	9:45am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Love for the Sake of Dub" by "Bacao Rhythm & Stee... I've mentioned this here before, but I love that one of this year's likely Best Picture contenders prominently features the Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band's cover of "P.I.M.P."
	👻 9:45am DjLorraine: ↳ Listener Jonny in MA............. d-_-b @9:39 Yes, but the brick roads were interesting, way back then.
	9:45am xtrakrispy: West Germany ceased to be a thing around 1990.
	9:45am Joe McG: ↳ The Oscar @9:45 Which one, Oscar?
	9:45am Triple G: ↳ Song: "Love for the Sake of Dub" by "Bacao Rhythm & Stee... This is the stuff
	👻 9:45am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ @blackwillowyoga @9:44 It was far more recent than I remembered. Colts left Baltimore in 84
	9:45am Elvin: West Germany? Baltimore Colts? Joe, what century are you in LOL?
	9:46am Joe McG: ↳ xtrakrispy @9:45 I'm clearly living in 1986.
	9:46am G: ↳ Asheville Jon @9:44 Plenty of Baltimoreans still have the Colts move very fresh in their mind. In a snowstorm overnight the owner had college kids hired to load up Mayflower trucks and drive to Indiana before MD state government could pass a law hindering them. Took all the Colts memorabilia with them haha.
	9:46am xtrakrispy: ↳ Joe McG @9:46 :^)
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Spikey BXL @9:45 Full marks first try!
	9:47am TerrDE: Washington should name them selves the Zulu . Typical macho warriors symbol, plus great for a crowd chant.. ZULU, ZULU, ZULU!
	9:47am Triple G: ↳ Joe McG @9:45 I just googled, I was curious as well (haven't seen this film yet) www.gq.com...
	9:47am Triple G: ^ "Anatomy of a Fall"
	9:47am Phillippe: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:44 The Ravens have three mascots named Edgar, Allan, and Poe
	9:47am Handy Haversack: ↳ Joe McG @9:45 You're gonna love this new thing they're trying -- the forward pass! It's pretty exciting when it works.
	9:48am Joe McG: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:47 I haven't liked football since they changed the ball! (I've read too many Ring Lardner stories.)
	👻 9:48am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Song: "A Love International" by "KhruangBin" Been listening to Khruangbin for WEEKS on repeat now. Perfect for this weather
	9:48am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Phillippe @9:47 Yes! I think they did a good job with the re-brand. Is there any other team named after a poet's creation??
	9:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ TerrDE @9:47 I had posited that the Capital Punishment would make a nice, noncontroversial name change for the Washington Football Team.
	9:49am The Oscar: ↳ Joe McG @9:45 Anatomy of a Fall-- it actually plays a major role in the narrative!
	9:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @9:47 Real missed opportunity not to have Hugin and Munin. But I guess Viking fans might have complained. Were you there on Sat.?
	👻 9:49am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:48 I just re-learned this week that Poe was buried there. It rings a bell, but i definitely didn’t have that had ready knowledge
	9:50am Mike Sin: ↳ Joe B @9:44 Ha! Before the halftime show became this major commercial and cultural event, the only ones I remember were Up Wirth People and Chubby Checker!
	9:50am Handy Haversack: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @9:49 en.wikipedia.org...
	9:50am Elvin: Re Colts, I love the scene in Diner with the trivia quiz. Period piece of course.
	9:50am TerrDE: If a city builds a stadium, and it should not, w taxpayers $ , then it should own the name. Ain't no Lakes in LA .
	9:51am Brendan: @Handy, that was the moniker of the 80s Skins D-line (Dexter Manley, Dave Butz, et al)
	9:51am Joe McG: ↳ The Oscar @9:49 Cool!
	9:51am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:50 This is incredibly cool.
	9:52am HyperDose: A rare morning Mike Sin sighting. Kewl!
	9:52am Mister Dobalina: That's what I needed this morning, a lil bit of FLUTES!
	9:52am Andres: ↳ Song: "Speed of Light" by "Angelo Outlaw" Good morning. Here for the Vibes and the vibes.
	👻 9:52am Webhamster Henry: You folks should take a peek at the Field Of Schemes blog to be up on all the stadium financing hijinks nationwide! www.fieldofschemes.com
	9:53am Handy Haversack: ↳ Brendan @9:51 Ha, I did not know that! Excellent. I mean, in a terrible way. But still!
	9:53am TVP: Idea for a future follow-up to that marching band set: a set of hockey/baseball organ music.
	9:53am Joe B: ↳ Mike Sin @9:50 the one super bowl I went to it was toni braxton/christina aguilera at halftime
	9:53am Joe McG: ↳ TVP @9:53 That sounds fun!!
	👻 9:53am chresti: I'm related to Red Grange, my dad played football, my brother taught me how to play football, my ex watched football, the end.
	👻 9:54am Ken From Hyde Park: I like the way Snrub thinks!
	9:54am TerrDE: Football trivia... What then legal and still legal play did RC Owens of the Baltimore Colts do that no one else has ?
	9:55am Phillippe: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:48 Not that I know of. A couple interesting trivia facts about the Ravens: for the first 46 Super Bowls, the Ravens were the only team named after a bird to win a Super Bowl. They are also the first team to win a Super Bowl before winning their division. (Sorry, season tix holder since Day 1. I'll go away now)
	👻 9:55am money&pain: My dad played in the rose bowl, my grandfather played in the rose bowl, my first toy was a football. The end.
	9:55am Brendan: That's an easy one. He blocked the field goal at the goalpost.
	9:56am Brendan: That's when the goalpost was at the goal line. Guys would actually run into it on running plays.
	9:56am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:52 Thanks for that. Didn't see on the site, but New York is giving the Buffalo Bills $850 million in taxpayer funds for a new stadium. & the owner of the team is a billionaire.
	9:58am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Phillippe @9:55 I'm a long suffering Vikings fan and can't believe we let Brian Billick go to Baltimore. I still have a soft spot for the Ravens. I'm glad they have a couple of rings.

	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Andres @9:58 All volunteer snow-plowers! Yeah that Bills Stadium thing is embarrassing! In my alternate universe, cities fight each other to build multimillion dollar state of the art theaters for their resident theatre rep companies and orchestras.
	10:03am Phillippe: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:58 Very well-run organization. I think Art Modell took too much grief for moving the team from Cleveland. Al Lerner was the one who brokered the deal, then bought the expansion team and was widely regarded as a saint in Cleveland.

	👻 10:10am nycmusicnerd: When the Super Bowl was in East Rutherford a local TV reporter interviewed the mayor (James Cassella) about preparations for the game. At the conclusion of the interview the reporter said something like, "Well, I guess we'll see you at the game." The mayor replied oh no, I can't even think about going. Those tickets are too expensive for someone on a small town mayor's salary. The frigging Super Bowl was in HIS town. It was HIS police force/resources being taken up by the event. And they couldn't even comp him a ticket.

	👻 10:16am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Phillippe @10:11 The prevailing rate for shoveling here! Volunteer in the sense it wasn't staff, I mean.

One slight problem: He didn't actually graduated. He'd completed his coursework, but he'd racked up maybe $400 in parking fines. He was a young struggling actor, he didn't have the $$, he just never paid the fine.
	11:12am drr: Oh yeah, and the gag at the beginning where the undercover cop (Belker?) would type up some perp's info, and they would say incongruous things? Like: "What's your name?" "Curtis." "LAST NAME??" "Interruptus."

	11:21am Brent: Speaking of collegiate: When I was at Rice back in 1971, it was clear we had nothing (beyond geography) in common with the behemoths of the Southwest Conference. The Marching Owl Band embraced that. Typical would be playing “Going out of my Head” while forming themselves into a flushing toilet. We normally left after their half-time show.
	11:21am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Andres @11:19 I loved the flipside. I can't remember what it was called - Bad News, I think. I did think I got the better end of the deal.
	11:22am Steve from Dunwoody: ↳ Song: "A Hazy Shade of Winter" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Cash Box wrote that it is a "strong session bound for biggiesburg."
	11:22am Phillippe: ↳ Song: "A Hazy Shade of Winter" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Loved the Simon and Garfunkel running joke in Detectorists
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:20 I'd like to, but probably not -- a lot going on that day! -- but we're going to Joe Bataan that night at WEH. I was planning on PATH to Journal Square to get out there but then from Grove St. to go home, if I understand the PATH site correctly, which, well, it could use a copy editor.
	11:23am paul: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:19 I thought he sang "I wish I could be Paul Simon."
	11:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Such a good show.
	👻 11:23am Brian in UK: Half Man, Half Biscuit's 'Trouble Over Bridgwater' still makes me chuckle.
	👻 11:23am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Joe McG @11:17 Mee too in doses. Enjoying this little selection.
	👻 11:24am Karl: I hope they reissue it with the proper record cover and original title
	11:24am Steve from Dunwoody: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:17 Just for the record, Handy, the correct response to your statement is an unironic NO.
	11:24am Joe McG: ↳ Brian in UK @11:23 I've got to play more Half Man Half Biscuit. I love them!
	11:24am Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:23 I just revisited it a couple weeks ago with my bride because she hadn't watched it with me my first time around. Love the warm little small-town vibe
	11:25am Joe McG: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Me, too! Hysterical!
	👻 11:25am tim: Did that cover photo experience inspire Art to audition for Carnal Knowledge?
	11:25am SeanG: the most recent Paul Simon record is pretty good
	👻 11:26am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Going back, you might try walking a few more feet to Exchange Place. That I believe will get you to the WTC. You can navigate the subway from there. I think.
	👻 11:27am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "A Poem on the Underground Wall" by "Simon & Garfu... "The old familiar suggestion" is pure poetry.
	👻 11:27am Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:08 Infinite Jest! Read this 15ish years ago, back when I was in grad school (instead of focusing on my work) , and remember loving all the cultural criticism baked into the story. Just finished the Lou Reed book, maybe I'll give this a reread next
	👻 11:28am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Anji" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Guess he learnt this when briefly residing over here.
	11:28am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "A Poem on the Underground Wall" by "Simon & Garfu... Simon and Garfunkel looked so square in Monterey Pop compared to Big Brother and the Holding Company, but that's just fine because they were so good. In an English teacher kind of way.
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:27 I've read it six times. Love it still.
	11:29am ∫ydniuß: ↳ Brian in UK @11:28 leave pentangle out of this
	👻 11:29am Brian in UK: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:27 Will catch your show on archive soon. Nice work.
	👻 11:29am tadpoles: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Also an episode of the great "Flight of the Conchords"....in which Art Garfunkel popped up in the end. They tried to get Bowie on board for their "tribute" to him but he wouldn't do it. Cheers
	11:29am Triple G: My wife’s name is Anjali, I sometimes call her Anji Have never heard this song by them — the guitar is reminiscent of their "Somewhere They Can’t Find Me”
	👻 11:30am Ben from Newark: ↳ Brian in UK @11:29 Thanks!
	11:30am Joe McG: ↳ Triple G @11:29 You'll want to go find the original version by Davey Graham as well as the Bert Jansch cover version, too!
	👻 11:31am Webhamster Henry: If you're looking for other albums recorded in apartments, there's Wolf Biermann's Chausseestraße 131.
	11:31am Triple G: A ha, great, thanks Joe
	👻 11:32am tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 I read DFW's firast book and couldn't deal with it. What am I missing?
	11:33am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 You would probably love Quack This Way by David Foster Wallace and Brian A. Garner. David unmasks what makes a good writer in the humblest way, without sparing shitty fakers.
	👻 11:33am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Doesn't sound completely in tune to me (but who am I to diss Bert Jansch...)
	11:33am patrick321: Hey Joe and all
	11:34am Phillippe: ↳ tadpoles @11:29 I'll have to check that out! We didn't have cable when that came out and I never circled back to watch it when it was possible.
	11:34am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" nice!
	11:34am Joe McG: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:31 Great idea for a premium, actually. Could include that Janis Joplin typewriter tape.
	11:34am Dean: Bryan A. Garner worked closely with Justice Scalia on works about how to write effectively for judges. He also edits the enduring Black's Law Dictionary.
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ☽Monday FMUvianz ~
	11:35am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @11:34 Yes! He talks about why legal writing is so terrible.
	11:35am Joe McG: ↳ Dean @11:34 His grammar book is essential for us editorial types!
	11:36am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:33 His review of Garner's Modern American Usage is excellent. I think it was reprinted in one of the nonfiction collections. Garner's book is on my desk at home and at work.
	11:36am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Joe McG @11:35 His is the ultimate style book.
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Needle of Death creeping in.
	👻 11:38am tim: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Whoa, A little of Needle of Death. That songs levels me.
	11:38am Joe McG: ↳ Brian in UK @11:37 Right at the end!
	11:39am spodiodi: Hello, Joe and all☀️
	👻 11:40am Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Wow. Lug that on the subway? I saw a reddit post of someone who split and and rebound the book into three smaller volumes - two for the story, and one for the end notes
	11:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe McG @11:17 Me too.
	11:40am love2laf: Thank you Joe, must leave early, but it's a very sweet song to exit to. Monday morning has been brought in with Marching Bands kicking us off. Cheers everyone.
	👻 11:41am Karl: ↳ tim @11:32 There are at least three ways to enjoy Infinite Jest. One is to study it like a English grad school class. This is my default mode, but it's not for everyone. Another is to just open it to any page and read a few pages--it's astounding how enjoyable this is, his writing is just overflowing with enthusiasm, inventiveness, daring. A third way (and my favorite way) is to imagine it like a TV series. Supposedly DFW decreed that Infinite Jest would not be adapted to TV/film. I can see why, but I also think it could be an all-time great TV series.
	11:42am Joe McG: ↳ love2laf @11:40 Glad you enjoyed!
	👻 11:43am Karl: Handy caught my typo. I'm sorry.
	👻 11:43am doctorjazz: Thanks, Joe, great show!
	👻 11:44am tim: ↳ Karl @11:41 Thanks, Karl. That is quite helpful.
	👻 11:45am chresti: Yow, loving this guitar set, thanks Joe!
	11:45am prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @11:44 the fourth way to enjoy IJ is to read it while lounging in the back of the fuZZZmobile... pothole every exclamation point!
	11:45am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:40 I was well into reading Infinite Jest, then one night I dozed off on the subway and woke up at the end of the 2 line. Disoriented, I exited the train and left my copy of the book on the train. If you have read the book and are familiar with the concept of "the samizdat", my life was in complete flux until I could obtain another copy.
	11:46am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:41 Taste is such a subjective thing. I prefer Consider The Lobster to Infinite Jest. Clear, concise, with a good lashing of veiled contempt for his subjects.
	11:46am Marie in Chicago: I never finished IJ but I loved what I read. Such a great writer. I love his essays too.
	👻 11:46am Karl: ↳ tim @11:44 I had a poetry professor many years ago who said something very similar about T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land: imagine it as an opera, with characters and costumes and sets changing. It's great advice.
	👻 11:46am Karl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:46 Oh I never claimed to have any taste!
	11:47am ∫ydniuß: who created the reality show? the results might surprise you!
	11:48am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:46 Nor I. A barbarian in the tea room all the way.
	11:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:40 I know, it's a back breaker on the subway!
	👻 11:48am Karl: DFW's commencement speech, "This is Water," is a thing of great beauty. fs.blog...
	11:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:46 And I think Consider the Lobster radically less strong than A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again!
	11:49am Franco Twinkie: I love that too!
	11:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:48 That got rather ghoulishly commercialized after his death. Lots of that going on.
	11:50am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:49 Anyone read The Pale King? Curious about it.
	11:50am Dano59: ↳ paul @10:53 the album and single versions are just over 5 minutes, and there's a single edit that's 4 minutes.
	👻 11:51am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Time Tonight" by "Hochzeitskapelle, Yuko Ikema, a... Sucker for these Salvation Army sounding bands...
	👻 11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ doctorjazz @11:51 It's a nice tie back to the opening set.
	👻 11:52am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	11:52am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:50 Yes. It is unfinished. I do not think the way it was published did it any favors. I'd have waited longer and surrounded it with a good superstructure of annotation and maybe even oral history were such available. Instead it was brought out more or less as a finished novel, and it in no wise is. There are great moments in it, but I don't think it was well handled. Remind me to tell you some time about the night I got loaded with a bunch of DFW scholars and what happened the next morning when I tried to go play D&D.
	11:52am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:49 Is reportage less engaging than pure invention? Not if you love real tragedy.
	11:52am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Joe! This has been great. We have our marching orders now!
	👻 11:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Wow how great does this compilation look? www.roughtrade.com...
	👻 11:53am nycmusicnerd: Thanks Joe! Especially for the Joe Jackson! Great show!
	11:53am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Did Daryl Hall accidentally invent the Flaming Lips?
	11:53am Andres: This one goes out to John Oates.
	11:54am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting today, everyone! Hope you have a grand week! See you next Monday.
	11:54am Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:53 Daaaaaaaaaamn.
	👻 11:54am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Sacred Songs forever.
	11:54am Rich from Wading River: Anyone who hasn’t seen the Robert Fripp visit to Daryl’s House is missing out.
	11:55am northguineahills: this was awesome, joe, thanks!
	11:55am listener 126464: Tanks a lot, Joe.
	11:55am Mister Dobalina: Excellent show, Joe!
	👻 11:55am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Is this from the Hall/Fripp album Sacred Songs. Sure I used to have a copy.
	👻 11:55am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "Ready to Leave" by "Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru" Also so happy to hear these songs. She sings!
	11:56am Rick A: Thank you, Joe, another gem this week, take care.
	11:56am ∫ydniuß: J McG! ty!
	11:56am Marie in Chicago: ↳ Song: "Ready to Leave" by "Emahoy Tsege Mariam Gebru" loving this. Thanks, Joe!

	9:16am TVP: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" Also, IIRC, this is the exact same version of the song that plays in The Naked Gun.
	9:16am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" i played this in marching band!

	9:17am D Rok: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" This was always the MOST boring song to play in marching band in the trombone section. Just ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba, for three minutes.
	9:17am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Louie Louie" by "Rice University Marching Owl Band" This is taking me back to my own marching band/pep band experience. Louie Louie was endemic.

	9:17am Edgar from Maine: ↳ dday @9:15 But then the glockenspiels kind of ruin it.

	9:20am D Rok: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:18 You can usually hear nearly all of it pretty well, but the brass tends to dominate. Playing Trombone, I usually heard mostly the rest of my section, the drums, and the trumpets. But when we would actually march in a parade, trombones were always in the front, so I'd hear the rest of the band behind me pretty well.

	9:21am Cyn: OMG thank you thank you! I found you on the dial with you July 4th marching band set ONE HUNDRED years ago and replayed for some time. You turned me into a marching band freak!!! This is what happens when one is a stoner under the bleachers in high school. I still hate sports, though.

	9:22am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:18 Just the immediate sound mostly, and whiffs of other sounds as the blocks drill past one another. Phasing is a big issue in marching bands.

	9:26am Aqui: I stumbled on a bunch of 5th graders in Thailand playing Hawaii 5-0 outdoors. No marching but pretty good for little kids. TV themes always ring true.
	9:27am Edgar from Maine: I have an image of hundreds of WFMU interns searching frantically for Moth Cock renditions by marching bands.
	9:27am TVP: ↳ Song: "Back That Thang Up" by "Norfolk State University ... Oh man, I remember when Norfolk State played Rutgers about a decade back; their marching band was awesome (as to be expected for an HBCU). I remember a bunch of RU fans were struggling to get the wave going, so the Norfolk band just slowly and methodically stood up and sat down from their seats, and the wave really got going then and there.
	9:27am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Song: "Tusk" by "University of Southern California Troja... The Croods movie was on heavy rotation in the house for awhile. It took me way too long to realize that this was the main theme.

	9:29am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:24 I played alto saxophone in marching band for two years, then I switched to quads. Quads are fun!
	9:29am Franco Twinkie: Hi Joe! This is so fine. In late December I went to the farmers market in South Pasadena. Their marching band was playing for the crowd in preparation for The Rose Parade. It was so intense! I stood as close as I could to get the full sonic effect. The crowd had surrounded them and was screaming and yelling. It made me feel like I did when I would go and see a great, incredibly loud band in a club.
	9:29am northguineahills: ↳ TerrDE @9:21 nice!
	9:29am Brendan: Good morning Joe & all. If you get a chance, check out Meute, a techno marching band from Germany (https://youtu.be/fKFbnhcNnjE?si=DagrsTu-gGPpSqh7).

	👻 9:34am nycmusicnerd: Ohio State did a tribute to Michael Jackson a few years ago where the band members did a moonwalk. I don't mean that the members moonwalked. They did a formation of a guy doing a moonwalk.
	9:35am Chris Hiatt: The African American predominant schools take it up to a whole new level. It's hard to just listen to the music though, the choreography is dazzling. Better to take in the whole package. Grambling State, Howard...
	9:35am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Joe B @9:33 They're good, but also kind of creepy with the whole military thing.

	9:43am D Rok: Baltimore is now the Ravens. The only NFL team named for a poem!
	9:43am Handy Haversack: Baltimore Ravens, Joe. Colts moved to Indy. Browns moved to Baltimore and became the Ravens. That was in the late nineties.

	9:44am @blackwillowyoga: Dude, the colts haven’t been from Baltimore since before you were born. It’s the ravens.
	9:44am Edgar from Maine: Technically the Ravens are the former Cleveland Browns, who left Cleveland for Baltimore after the Colts left Baltimore for Indy. The Browns name stayed in Cleveland and the former Browns were re-dubbed the Ravens.
	9:45am Joe McG: ↳ Handy Haversack @9:43 Maybe it's been more than 2 years since I watched football. :)
	9:45am Brendan: This may be TMI but there was a question recently on Jeopardy about the need to routinely drain spit from the French horn, and the associated procedure.

	9:46am Joe McG: ↳ xtrakrispy @9:45 I'm clearly living in 1986.
	9:46am G: ↳ Asheville Jon @9:44 Plenty of Baltimoreans still have the Colts move very fresh in their mind. In a snowstorm overnight the owner had college kids hired to load up Mayflower trucks and drive to Indiana before MD state government could pass a law hindering them. Took all the Colts memorabilia with them haha.

	9:48am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Phillippe @9:47 Yes! I think they did a good job with the re-brand. Is there any other team named after a poet's creation??
	9:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ TerrDE @9:47 I had posited that the Capital Punishment would make a nice, noncontroversial name change for the Washington Football Team.
	9:49am The Oscar: ↳ Joe McG @9:45 Anatomy of a Fall-- it actually plays a major role in the narrative!
	9:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @9:47 Real missed opportunity not to have Hugin and Munin. But I guess Viking fans might have complained. Were you there on Sat.?
	👻 9:49am Deano de los Muertos: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:48 I just re-learned this week that Poe was buried there. It rings a bell, but i definitely didn’t have that had ready knowledge

	9:50am TerrDE: If a city builds a stadium, and it should not, w taxpayers $ , then it should own the name. Ain't no Lakes in LA .
	9:51am Brendan: @Handy, that was the moniker of the 80s Skins D-line (Dexter Manley, Dave Butz, et al)
	9:51am Joe McG: ↳ The Oscar @9:49 Cool!

	9:55am Phillippe: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:48 Not that I know of. A couple interesting trivia facts about the Ravens: for the first 46 Super Bowls, the Ravens were the only team named after a bird to win a Super Bowl. They are also the first team to win a Super Bowl before winning their division. (Sorry, season tix holder since Day 1. I'll go away now)
	👻 9:55am money&pain: My dad played in the rose bowl, my grandfather played in the rose bowl, my first toy was a football. The end.
	9:55am Brendan: That's an easy one. He blocked the field goal at the goalpost.
	9:56am Brendan: That's when the goalpost was at the goal line. Guys would actually run into it on running plays.
	9:56am Mister Dobalina: ↳ Webhamster Henry @9:52 Thanks for that. Didn't see on the site, but New York is giving the Buffalo Bills $850 million in taxpayer funds for a new stadium. & the owner of the team is a billionaire.
	9:58am Edgar from Maine: ↳ Phillippe @9:55 I'm a long suffering Vikings fan and can't believe we let Brian Billick go to Baltimore. I still have a soft spot for the Ravens. I'm glad they have a couple of rings.

	👻 10:03am Webhamster Henry: ↳ Andres @9:58 All volunteer snow-plowers! Yeah that Bills Stadium thing is embarrassing! In my alternate universe, cities fight each other to build multimillion dollar state of the art theaters for their resident theatre rep companies and orchestras.
	10:03am Phillippe: ↳ Edgar from Maine @9:58 Very well-run organization. I think Art Modell took too much grief for moving the team from Cleveland. Al Lerner was the one who brokered the deal, then bought the expansion team and was widely regarded as a saint in Cleveland.

At the conclusion of the interview the reporter said something like, "Well, I guess we'll see you at the game." The mayor replied oh no, I can't even think about going. Those tickets are too expensive for someone on a small town mayor's salary. The frigging Super Bowl was in HIS town. It was HIS police force/resources being taken up by the event.

	👻 10:18am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Deano de los Muertos @10:11 I'm from East Rutherford. There are 2 distinct sections--the industrial section with the swamps and the stadiums, and the residential section where the people live. It may or may not be as small as Rutherford, but it ain't exactly a huge metropolis, neither.

	11:00am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "This Time I'll Be Sweeter" by "Linda Lewis" Even though I don't remember Linda Lewis, I liked it for the simple reason it reminds me of listening to KDAY in Los Angeles when I was 19-20. Driving around in my Datsun wishing I had an FM radio, so I could listen to what - Jefferson Starship? Lame as all get out, but that's life at any given moment.

	11:05am Rick A: ↳ Song: "The Theme from Hill Street Blues" by "Mike Post" Hi Joe and All, My parents and I used to regularly, watch Hill Street Blues. I always wondered where it was supposed to be set. I think it was Chicago, though a friend of mine said New Orleans. I don't think it was New Orleans because many of scenes appeared very wintry.
	11:05am Chris Hiatt: My parents must've tuned in every week, heard that theme so much while playing off to the side in the TV room.
	👻 11:05am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "The Theme from Hill Street Blues" by "Mike Post" Let's be careful out there...
	11:05am Roberto: There were two sergeants, Michael Conrad and Robert Prosky. Prosky took over when Conrad passed away mid-series.
	11:06am Handy Haversack: K8 had never seen HSB, so we started watching it a couple years back. She hated it. I can see why. It's pretty racist, even as it sort of tries not to be. And kind of shockingly violent. I can still see what's good about it, but oof, some parts have aged very poorly.
	11:06am Roberto: ↳ drr @11:05 James B. Sikking!
	11:06am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Philip @11:04 Rockford Files in afternoon reruns on a smoggy afternoon with the drapes drawn.

	11:08am Andres: I was probably too young to enjoy Hill Street Blues but I left it on long enough for the theme song to finish before changing the channel.
	👻 11:08am nycmusicnerd: Some channel ran a HSB marathon a few years ago & I watched for a few hours. I'd forgotten how FUNNY that show was. "Oh Lordy, THEY STOLE MY DADDY!"
	11:08am drr: ↳ Roberto @11:06 Thank you, I felt a little doubtful about the "B". Let's also not forget Taurean Blacque.
	11:08am Roberto: ↳ drr @11:08 RIP
	11:08am Steve from Dunwoody: ↳ drr @11:08 Tough guy!
	11:08am Handy Haversack: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 Still, Hal Incandenza's essay about Frank Furillo as the "postmodern" hero opposed to Steve McGarrett from Hawaii 5-O is a classic of the form.
	11:09am Rick A: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @11:07 Yes! I would really value a Joe M. film music related premium.
	11:09am tom tom the pipers son: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 i caught it on tv sometime in last couple of years ..and it was very ugly....ugliness as realism
	11:09am drr: And what about Betty Thomas, who went on to direct some movies?
	11:09am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 Police procedurals have mostly aged very poorly, even if they came out last year. Trying to think of one that doesn't make me squirm.
	👻 11:09am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:06 Is that the series that said some cuss word on TV? How did the FCC approve that plan?

	11:11am Handy Haversack: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:10 They certainly showed a booty, which was a big deal as I recall.
	👻 11:12am nycmusicnerd: Here's a cool story. A handful of the HSB cast went to Carnegie Mellon U. in Pittsburgh. One year Bruce Weitz (who played Belker) was asked to give the commencement address. One slight problem: He didn't actually graduated. He'd completed his coursework, but he'd racked up maybe $400 in parking fines. He was a young struggling actor, he didn't have the $$, he just never paid the fine.
	11:12am drr: Oh yeah, and the gag at the beginning where the undercover cop (Belker?) would type up some perp's info, and they would say incongruous things? Like: "What's your name?" "Curtis." "LAST NAME??" "Interruptus."
	👻 11:12am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:11 That must have been what I was thinking of. A butt!
	👻 11:12am Webhamster Henry: I kind of stopped watching TV around 1979.. so I missed HSB and much more entirely.
	11:12am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:10 Ah, when I wrap up my current series I was thinking about taking that one in. I'm pretty behind, obvs...
	11:12am The Oscar: Someone posted that Mary Weiss was actually three years younger than Debbie Harry, which completely bends my brain.
	👻 11:13am nycmusicnerd: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:12 So after he gives his speech, the president comes up to the podium and tells him that the University reviewed his case and decided to grant him amnesty. Then he handed him his diploma.
	11:13am Steve from Dunwoody: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:11 And it was Sipowicz's butt, to make it more uh remarkable.
	11:13am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:08 Hawaii 5-0 credits: Cam Fong as Chin Ho and Zulu as Kono. Nothing racist about that.
	👻 11:13am nycmusicnerd: ↳ drr @11:12 BRRRRRRRRRRRING! "WHAT??" "Oh, Hi mom."
	👻 11:14am Webhamster Henry: Radio Row was good yesterday too, check the archives! Radio group therapy!
	11:14am northguineahills: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:04 i don't think my parents took the vhs camera w/ them for that one...
	11:14am drr: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:13 Exactly!
	11:14am Chris Hiatt: TOPT did a lovely tribute to Mary Weiss on his most recent show.
	11:14am Roberto: The '90s were a quaint time, in retrospect.
	11:14am Handy Haversack: The Manhattan-bound trains are still stopping at Grove St., right?
	11:14am Rick A: I went to a sale in 2019. I believe the PATH was completely shut. So, I took the ferry across which was fun, though more time consuming than the train.
	👻 11:15am tim: ↳ The Oscar @11:12 Yeah, I learned recently that the Shangri Las were in their mid teens when they first started having hits.
	👻 11:16am Gregosaurus: 57 years

	11:17am Handy Haversack: Robinson a fun poet.
	11:17am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "Richard Cory" by "Simon & Garfunkel" I've always wondered if Richard Cory and David Watts knew each other.
	11:17am Joe McG: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @11:16 Possibly, but I like 'em!
	👻 11:18am Gregosaurus: ↳ Song: "Richard Cory" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Covered on Wings Over America, sung by Denny.
	11:18am Brendan: I hope his teacher gave him extra credit after the fact
	11:18am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "Richard Cory" by "Simon & Garfunkel" At this moment in time, I was held at gunpoint and made to trade my copy of Snoopy VS The Red Baron for Sounds of Silence.
	11:18am Joe McG: Them did a pretty cool version of "Richard Cory."
	👻 11:19am Webhamster Henry: Macca sings "I wish that I could be.. John Denver" I think.

	👻 11:20am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:14 I usually take the PATH to Grove Street from Hoboken, if you're talking about getting to Monty Hall. Are you planning to go to the sale on Saturday? Maybe I'll see you there!
	11:20am Philip: whoa. cool
	11:21am Brent: Speaking of collegiate: When I was at Rice back in 1971, it was clear we had nothing (beyond geography) in common with the behemoths of the Southwest Conference. The Marching Owl Band embraced that. Typical would be playing “Going out of my Head” while forming themselves into a flushing toilet. We normally left after their half-time show.
	11:21am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Andres @11:19 I loved the flipside. I can't remember what it was called - Bad News, I think. I did think I got the better end of the deal.
	11:22am Steve from Dunwoody: ↳ Song: "A Hazy Shade of Winter" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Cash Box wrote that it is a "strong session bound for biggiesburg."
	11:22am Phillippe: ↳ Song: "A Hazy Shade of Winter" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Loved the Simon and Garfunkel running joke in Detectorists
	11:22am Handy Haversack: ↳ nycmusicnerd @11:20 I'd like to, but probably not -- a lot going on that day! -- but we're going to Joe Bataan that night at WEH. I was planning on PATH to Journal Square to get out there but then from Grove St. to go home, if I understand the PATH site correctly, which, well, it could use a copy editor.
	11:23am paul: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:19 I thought he sang "I wish I could be Paul Simon."
	11:23am Handy Haversack: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Such a good show.

	11:24am Joe McG: ↳ Brian in UK @11:23 I've got to play more Half Man Half Biscuit. I love them!
	11:24am Phillippe: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:23 I just revisited it a couple weeks ago with my bride because she hadn't watched it with me my first time around. Love the warm little small-town vibe
	11:25am Joe McG: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Me, too! Hysterical!
	👻 11:25am tim: Did that cover photo experience inspire Art to audition for Carnal Knowledge?
	11:25am SeanG: the most recent Paul Simon record is pretty good
	👻 11:26am nycmusicnerd: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:22 Going back, you might try walking a few more feet to Exchange Place. That I believe will get you to the WTC. You can navigate the subway from there. I think.
	👻 11:27am Hughie Considine: ↳ Song: "A Poem on the Underground Wall" by "Simon & Garfu... "The old familiar suggestion" is pure poetry.
	👻 11:27am Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:08 Infinite Jest! Read this 15ish years ago, back when I was in grad school (instead of focusing on my work) , and remember loving all the cultural criticism baked into the story. Just finished the Lou Reed book, maybe I'll give this a reread next
	👻 11:28am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Anji" by "Simon & Garfunkel" Guess he learnt this when briefly residing over here.
	11:28am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Song: "A Poem on the Underground Wall" by "Simon & Garfu... Simon and Garfunkel looked so square in Monterey Pop compared to Big Brother and the Holding Company, but that's just fine because they were so good. In an English teacher kind of way.
	11:28am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:27 I've read it six times. Love it still.

	👻 11:29am Brian in UK: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:27 Will catch your show on archive soon. Nice work.
	👻 11:29am tadpoles: ↳ Phillippe @11:22 Also an episode of the great "Flight of the Conchords"....in which Art Garfunkel popped up in the end. They tried to get Bowie on board for their "tribute" to him but he wouldn't do it. Cheers
	11:29am Triple G: My wife’s name is Anjali, I sometimes call her Anji Have never heard this song by them — the guitar is reminiscent of their "Somewhere They Can’t Find Me”
	👻 11:30am Ben from Newark: ↳ Brian in UK @11:29 Thanks!
	11:30am Joe McG: ↳ Triple G @11:29 You'll want to go find the original version by Davey Graham as well as the Bert Jansch cover version, too!
	👻 11:31am Webhamster Henry: If you're looking for other albums recorded in apartments, there's Wolf Biermann's Chausseestraße 131.
	11:31am Triple G: A ha, great, thanks Joe
	👻 11:32am tim: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 I read DFW's firast book and couldn't deal with it. What am I missing?
	11:33am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 You would probably love Quack This Way by David Foster Wallace and Brian A. Garner. David unmasks what makes a good writer in the humblest way, without sparing shitty fakers.
	👻 11:33am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Doesn't sound completely in tune to me (but who am I to diss Bert Jansch...)
	11:33am patrick321: Hey Joe and all
	11:34am Phillippe: ↳ tadpoles @11:29 I'll have to check that out! We didn't have cable when that came out and I never circled back to watch it when it was possible.
	11:34am northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" nice!
	11:34am Joe McG: ↳ Webhamster Henry @11:31 Great idea for a premium, actually. Could include that Janis Joplin typewriter tape.
	11:34am Dean: Bryan A. Garner worked closely with Justice Scalia on works about how to write effectively for judges. He also edits the enduring Black's Law Dictionary.
	11:34am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ~ Good ☽Monday FMUvianz ~
	11:35am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Dean @11:34 Yes! He talks about why legal writing is so terrible.
	11:35am Joe McG: ↳ Dean @11:34 His grammar book is essential for us editorial types!
	11:36am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:33 His review of Garner's Modern American Usage is excellent. I think it was reprinted in one of the nonfiction collections. Garner's book is on my desk at home and at work.
	11:36am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Joe McG @11:35 His is the ultimate style book.
	👻 11:37am Brian in UK: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Needle of Death creeping in.
	👻 11:38am tim: ↳ Song: "Instrumental Medley" by "Bert Jansch" Whoa, A little of Needle of Death. That songs levels me.
	11:38am Joe McG: ↳ Brian in UK @11:37 Right at the end!
	11:39am spodiodi: Hello, Joe and all☀️
	👻 11:40am Ben from Newark: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:28 Wow. Lug that on the subway? I saw a reddit post of someone who split and and rebound the book into three smaller volumes - two for the story, and one for the end notes
	11:40am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Joe McG @11:17 Me too.
	11:40am love2laf: Thank you Joe, must leave early, but it's a very sweet song to exit to. Monday morning has been brought in with Marching Bands kicking us off. Cheers everyone.
	👻 11:41am Karl: ↳ tim @11:32 There are at least three ways to enjoy Infinite Jest. One is to study it like a English grad school class. This is my default mode, but it's not for everyone. Another is to just open it to any page and read a few pages--it's astounding how enjoyable this is, his writing is just overflowing with enthusiasm, inventiveness, daring. A third way (and my favorite way) is to imagine it like a TV series. Supposedly DFW decreed that Infinite Jest would not be adapted to TV/film. I can see why, but I also think it could be an all-time great TV series.
	11:42am Joe McG: ↳ love2laf @11:40 Glad you enjoyed!
	👻 11:43am Karl: Handy caught my typo. I'm sorry.
	👻 11:43am doctorjazz: Thanks, Joe, great show!
	👻 11:44am tim: ↳ Karl @11:41 Thanks, Karl. That is quite helpful.
	👻 11:45am chresti: Yow, loving this guitar set, thanks Joe!
	11:45am prof.fuzz: ↳ tim @11:44 the fourth way to enjoy IJ is to read it while lounging in the back of the fuZZZmobile... pothole every exclamation point!
	11:45am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:40 I was well into reading Infinite Jest, then one night I dozed off on the subway and woke up at the end of the 2 line. Disoriented, I exited the train and left my copy of the book on the train. If you have read the book and are familiar with the concept of "the samizdat", my life was in complete flux until I could obtain another copy.
	11:46am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:41 Taste is such a subjective thing. I prefer Consider The Lobster to Infinite Jest. Clear, concise, with a good lashing of veiled contempt for his subjects.
	11:46am Marie in Chicago: I never finished IJ but I loved what I read. Such a great writer. I love his essays too.
	👻 11:46am Karl: ↳ tim @11:44 I had a poetry professor many years ago who said something very similar about T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land: imagine it as an opera, with characters and costumes and sets changing. It's great advice.
	👻 11:46am Karl: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:46 Oh I never claimed to have any taste!
	11:47am ∫ydniuß: who created the reality show? the results might surprise you!
	11:48am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Karl @11:46 Nor I. A barbarian in the tea room all the way.
	11:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ Ben from Newark @11:40 I know, it's a back breaker on the subway!
	👻 11:48am Karl: DFW's commencement speech, "This is Water," is a thing of great beauty. fs.blog...
	11:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @11:46 And I think Consider the Lobster radically less strong than A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again!
	11:49am Franco Twinkie: I love that too!
	11:49am Handy Haversack: ↳ Karl @11:48 That got rather ghoulishly commercialized after his death. Lots of that going on.
	11:50am Chris Hiatt: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:49 Anyone read The Pale King? Curious about it.
	11:50am Dano59: ↳ paul @10:53 the album and single versions are just over 5 minutes, and there's a single edit that's 4 minutes.
	👻 11:51am doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Time Tonight" by "Hochzeitskapelle, Yuko Ikema, a... Sucker for these Salvation Army sounding bands...
	👻 11:51am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ doctorjazz @11:51 It's a nice tie back to the opening set.
	👻 11:52am 12539: Thanks, Joe!
	11:52am Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris Hiatt @11:50 Yes. It is unfinished. I do not think the way it was published did it any favors. I'd have waited longer and surrounded it with a good superstructure of annotation and maybe even oral history were such available. Instead it was brought out more or less as a finished novel, and it in no wise is. There are great moments in it, but I don't think it was well handled. Remind me to tell you some time about the night I got loaded with a bunch of DFW scholars and what happened the next morning when I tried to go play D&D.
	11:52am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @11:49 Is reportage less engaging than pure invention? Not if you love real tragedy.
	11:52am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Joe! This has been great. We have our marching orders now!
	👻 11:53am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Wow how great does this compilation look? www.roughtrade.com...
	👻 11:53am nycmusicnerd: Thanks Joe! Especially for the Joe Jackson! Great show!
	11:53am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "The Farther Away I Am" by "Daryl Hall" Did Daryl Hall accidentally invent the Flaming Lips?
	11:53am Andres: This one goes out to John Oates.
