	3:09pm kev: I watched the Misfits yesterday. Great flick
	🥀 3:10pm Ken From Hyde Park: This show is all kinds of neat stuff.
	🥀 3:10pm Adi From Sheffield: I think Matt would be a good guest on Techtonic as well.
	3:10pm efd: plenty of other places you can go listen to music instead of complaining here.
	3:11pm P.Welles: I am trying to get in to the The The concert in Montreal. I dont have a phone thing to buy tickets. Help! can I buy a ticket at the door This predicament is horrible!
	3:12pm egould: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:09 And Clark Gable's. And Rex Bell.
	3:12pm P.Welles: Ensoulment is so good!
	🥀 3:13pm bluecharlie: Hi Mona! 🥰
	🥀 3:13pm Adi From Sheffield: I saw The The around the Mind Bomb era. That wasn't yesterday 😀
	3:13pm vrykoluka: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:09 Montgomery Clift appeared in three films after The Misfits: Judgement At Nuremberg (1961); Freud, The Secret Passion (1962), and finally The Defector, in 1966.
	3:13pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:11 phone the venue
	3:14pm P.Welles: ↳ People Like Us @3:13 I will show up with cash. I cant miss this!
	3:16pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:14 Looks like there's still tickets but you should get them before - www.thethe.com... - call the venue cos it may sell out
	3:16pm P.Welles: Fan since Controversial Subject on 4AD
	3:17pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:16 all the more reason to contact the venue :)
	3:17pm P.Welles: ↳ People Like Us @3:16 Will call and see. I am getting anxiety about modern ticket practices.
	3:17pm Hubig Pie: ↳ vrykoluka @3:13 Well that proves I'm obviously no flim scholar
	🥀 3:18pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mona and everyone! digging the tunes and interview! :)
	🥀 3:19pm Adi From Sheffield: I do like Johnson's lyrically caustic form. We need songwriters of his ilk now more than ever.
	3:19pm Picante Mint: ↳ P.Welles @3:17 I saw Duster this past weekend and the venue forces you to use their mobile app to get the QR code ticket. I do not like it one bit, give me a ticket stub or will call option!
	3:20pm Anon: I have always wondered, so does anyone have any insights or thoughts about why The The’s two best known songs (Uncertain Smile and This is the Day) are so completely different from the rest of Matt Johnson’s work?
	3:21pm rf: He's got a good voice
	3:21pm People Like Us: ↳ Picante Mint @3:19 they have to have a desk for non-digital to deal with it though
	3:21pm P.Welles: ↳ Picante Mint @3:19 I know! this is crass.
	3:22pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:21 If you contact the venue and say you don't have digital means they have to help you.
	🥀 3:25pm Handy Haversack: Well, "people" used to just mean "slave owner," so really the governing class is trying to stay true to its ideals still. The government has always been of, by, and for them.
	3:25pm Nick K: It’s probably the worst ever right now under our current administration
	🥀 3:25pm chris in the redwoods: i think Matt has got this spot on. the phrase 'extreme center' perfectly describes this late-stage capitalist nightmare we're in.
	3:26pm Hörer Christoph: Great interview, great guy. Makes me want to revisit The The
	3:28pm rf: The first track seemed kind of interesting but the following two are kind of boring? great voice though, and i agree with the sentiments
	3:29pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:25 Yet people clamor for ever more government. It's kind of depressing really.
	3:29pm P.Welles: ↳ People Like Us @3:22 called, have to go to box tonight or tomorrow!
	3:30pm P.Welles: office
	🥀 3:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @3:29 People call for protection from the governing class. Supposedly, the government exists to protect us. It's just that it doesn't.
	3:30pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:29 excellent
	3:31pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:30 Government exists to protect itself, and those who control it.
	🥀 3:32pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:30 perhaps that speaks to elected representatives consistently failing to represent us.
	3:32pm rf: aw <3 Matt Bought the album anyhow
	3:36pm dana: Listening to this interview make me want this album I have almost all of his others and have seen him twice Knowing meanings hits home
	🥀 3:36pm Ciggy: Did anyone mention that station manager ken thinks that the band name the the is the WORST band name EVER. Not my opinion
	🥀 3:38pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Where Do We Go When We Die?" by "The The" This song is making me pretty teary.
	3:39pm P.Welles: ↳ Ciggy @3:36 Saw the at Masonic Hall Toronto early 90s was mind blowing.
	3:40pm joe mulligan: My wife and I played "This is The Day" at our wedding
	3:41pm Mona: ↳ joe mulligan @3:40 me too!!!
	3:42pm joe mulligan: ↳ Mona @3:41 love it Mona! we just had our 7th anniversary on 9/23
	3:42pm Quizmo: Thanks for this interview. Makes me want to dust off my cassette single of "jealous of youth". Time to surrender!
	3:42pm P.Welles: Matt is a real artist.
	3:42pm Mona: shout out @People Like Us! <3 <3
	3:42pm Carmichael: ↳ Ciggy @3:36 I heard Dave Couse from A House saying that the band took it's name because they were tired of bands called "The <somethings>".
	3:42pm People Like Us: wheee
	3:43pm efd: THERE IT IS!!

	3:47pm Clincher16": Dang! Looks like the new The The album is not on Bandcamp.
	🥀 3:47pm Handy Haversack: That was a great conversation! Thanks, Mona and Matt!
	3:47pm Anon: The government’s interest in just preserving and enhancing its power is why I do my best to have nothing to do with it. I don’t even vote!
	3:47pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "This Is The Day" by "The The" Love that concertina thingy
	3:48pm People Like Us: www.thethe.com
	3:50pm Anon: Actually nobody should vote because that just gives legitimacy to the government that oppresses us
	3:51pm Vanejsa: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Matt Johnson (The The)" oh, I love Matt Johnson/the the, but I just got off work, I'll have to listen to archives later.
	🥀 3:51pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): Great interview, and yay! Mona going steady!
	🥀 3:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: Don't vote for the fascists, that's for certain.
	3:54pm Aharon: Wow this is a good song!
	3:55pm Vanejsa: ↳ People Like Us @3:48 I watched your video! fun!
	3:55pm Anon: ↳ Ken From Hyde Park @3:51 Thanks Ken! I take it that you, like me, are opposed to fascism?
	3:55pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Good NYC afternoon to Mona and all!
	3:55pm PaulRobeson1924: Help me Clay!
	3:56pm rf: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @3:55 :)
	3:56pm PaulRobeson1924: Warm greetings one & all!
	3:56pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Some Candy Talking" by "Richard Hawley" Good aft, Mona and all. Loving this! A real “Just Like Honey” vibe. Candy without the Paycho. ;)
	3:57pm People Like Us: ↳ Vanejsa @3:55 it was!
	3:57pm PaulRobeson1924: HELP ME MR.CLAY
	3:57pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: ↳ Song: "Some Candy Talking" by "Richard Hawley" The Caulfield Sisters did an insanely great, accordion-based cover of this song.
	3:58pm cheyenne: Wow
	4:01pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ PaulRobeson1924 @3:57 in oats we trust
	4:01pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Jolene" by "The White Stripes" The first White Stripes I heard. My friend from Scotland who was the biggest Dolly Parton and White Stripes fan played it for me.
	4:02pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: ↳ Song: "Jolene" by "The White Stripes" Classic song, of course. But I always wondered why Jolene is the only person in this relationship with any agency.
	4:02pm Andres: ↳ Andres @3:56 A cover. Well that explains it. :)
	4:03pm PaulRobeson1924: ↳ ∫ydniuß @4:01 Wholesome wonderful oats!

	4:08pm Roberto: ↳ rf @4:06 So he needed a bigger Hitler moustache?
	4:08pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Roberto @4:08 ahem charlie chaplin got to it 1st
	4:09pm rf: mona lets the artists speak for themselves <3
	4:10pm listener 126464: ↳ Song: "Ghosts of Princes in Towers" by "Rich Kids" !!
	4:10pm rf: ↳ Roberto @4:08 Lol I'll have to think about that one and get back to you
	4:10pm luka: ↳ Song: "Ghosts of Princes in Towers" by "Rich Kids" wow
	4:12pm rf: ↳ Roberto @4:08 I just checked with the moustache committee, John Waters moustache is fine so size isn't the issue after all. It's the genocide & fascism
	4:13pm People Like Us: nice segue there!
	4:13pm Roberto: ↳ rf @4:12 That tracks.
	4:14pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ People Like Us @4:13 shh Mona gets the premium imported segues they are the best

	🥀 4:24pm Adi From Sheffield: I saw Richard H Kirk of CV do a phenomenal dub set in an abandoned hotel some years ago.
	4:26pm DanFA: ↳ Song: "join in the chant (gold!)" by "Nitzer Ebb" Ok, ok, I'll join, just stop shouting!
	4:26pm Andres: ↳ Song: "join in the chant (gold!)" by "Nitzer Ebb" YES!!!
	🥀 4:27pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "join in the chant (gold!)" by "Nitzer Ebb" feeling my freshman year of college coming on!
	4:27pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:23 It seems nearly all the wfmu DJs were buying UK import singles in their late teens. It's been a fairly brit-tastic week here & on the streams
	4:27pm ∫ydniuß: ↳ Song: "join in the chant (gold!)" by "Nitzer Ebb" early Ministry? ❌ i wrong agin
	4:28pm People Like Us: Soft Cell please :)
	4:29pm DanFA: ↳ ∫ydniuß @4:27 No, just dudes shouting over electronic music.
	4:29pm cristinap: yaaaassssssss
	🥀 4:30pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Avspuk @4:27 It does surprise me what travelled and what didn't.
	🥀 4:30pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "A Question of Lust" by "Depeche Mode" Gonna send this out to the memory of my dear friend Corwin whose funeral was 30 years ago today. DM was his favorite band. He loved to make up words to their songs and razz his friends and this was one of his favs. He really deserved more than 24 years on this planet. Fuck cancer.
	4:30pm cristinap: monty hall needs to have a goth dance party because there aren't really any accessible
	4:30pm People Like Us: ↳ Avspuk @4:27 in turn we were buying Eurobeat :)
	🥀 4:31pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:30 I was buying Chicago/New York house imports 😉
	4:31pm Andres: ↳ Song: "A Question of Lust" by "Depeche Mode" I wish I’d invested in vinyl copies instead of all those cassettes.
	🥀 4:32pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:30 😭😭😭 been thinking about him all day. www.instagram.com...
	🥀 4:32pm Bobby: ↳ cristinap @4:30 Where could we find a DJ with the talent and interest to do it?
	4:32pm People Like Us: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:31 Actually I wasn't buying anything, haha... just taping the radio!
	4:33pm DanFA: ↳ People Like Us @4:30 Ahoy, Vicki
	4:33pm cristinap: ok mona needs to have a party at monty lol thanks for that
	4:33pm ∫ydniuß: all hail Ralph
	🥀 4:33pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ cristinap @4:30 I would be there in a heartbeat.
	4:33pm cristinap: ↳ Bobby @4:32 sorry I responded but didn't tag you
	4:33pm BK dad: Oh Mona, how I love you 🖤
	🥀 4:33pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:30 Fuck cancer.
	4:33pm cristinap: interns, please set it up
	4:34pm cristinap: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:33 come on, community!
	🥀 4:35pm Bobby: Ruth if you are reading this, I’m volunteering for the Mona goth dance party at Monty that we still need to clear with both you and Mona
	🥀 4:35pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): I loved the DM to Tuxedomoon transition! I wish I had known Tuxedomoon when I was a teenager.
	🥀 4:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bobby @4:35 But we're pretty sure Mona's in. She's playing Tuxedomoon!
	🥀 4:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:32 My overriding thought about consumption of music was having to wait for releases. I would hear a pre release on the radio and it wouldn't be out for ages so taping was often an option for my impatient younger self as well 😀
	🥀 4:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @4:33 We used to hang out at Exchange Place and whenever I head over to the station I think abt him. So not fair to take someone so young. I was thinking abt it when Matt was talking about losing his brother earlier.
	4:37pm People Like Us: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 I mostly couldn't afford everything I wanted when in early teens so would tape it or share tapes - but Uncertain Smile by The The was my first 12 inch :)
	4:38pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:30 24 years? Aw jeez.
	🥀 4:39pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:37 Sympathy and solidarity, Bryan.
	🥀 4:40pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @4:38 Yeah. He was really my first close friend to go. And 30 years later it's still hard to take.
	🥀 4:41pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @4:39 <3
	🥀 4:41pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:37 My Dad's job was supplying jukeboxes to pubs so I had a fortunate supply of ex jukebox 7"s. I later used to shop at Warp Records in Sheffield which would later become the ubiquitous label etc. I spent what I had on little else back then 😁
	4:41pm Mona: i'm in for goth dance party at monty hall - we'll call it everyday is halloween! bryan i'm sorry for your loss, i pulled depeche mode today for your friend
	4:42pm People Like Us: ↳ Mona @4:41 during the marathon?
	4:42pm cristinap: ↳ Mona @4:41 omg this is so rad
	🥀 4:42pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "Dominoes" by "The Big Pink" I LOVE Big Pink's song, "How Far We've Come" featuring iO. I 1st heard it in the closing segment of a Night Flight episode a few years back. Great song
	🥀 4:43pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Mona @4:41 😭😭😭 🥀 🥀 🥀 Thank you, Mona.
	🥀 4:44pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "If I Had A Heart (Fuck Buttons Remix)" by "Fever ... ❤️ if you want to appeal to me always play this kind of gear 😂
	4:47pm Jeezuseffinchrist: this reminds me of the now-defunct Fuck Buttons, especially Sweet Love for Planet Earth
	🥀 4:47pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:41 super cool story!
	🥀 4:47pm Bobby: ↳ Jeezuseffinchrist @4:47 Aaaah I love that
	🥀 4:47pm Ciggy: ↳ Ciggy @4:42 *Io Echo
	4:48pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:40 Much love, Bryan.
	🥀 4:48pm Adi From Sheffield: Tonight's doodle during the show ibb.co...
	4:49pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Lose It" by "Austra" ❤️
	4:50pm morphe': Attuned !!!
	4:50pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:31 I'm a lil bit older & couldn't really afford imports, Tho I did buy the I'm bored Destroy All Monsters 7" As for what travelled, the reverence the station has for Nick Lowe & Dave Edmunds surprises me, I suppose they & the Feelgoods were the last generation to be directly/solely inspired by Americana. Also the yanks attitude to glam (Todd-o-phonic Todd said he ranks Slade with the stones & the velvets,!!!?!!) can be jarring at times & makes me look at my own biases. But treating Depeche Mode like they're as innovative/significsnt as Kraftwerk is just a step too far for me. :) Still, whatever, its all good & the DJs all clearly know their stuff & I've yet to donate so maybe I should just shut me gob like. Still it takes all sorts
	4:50pm ViolaChica: Austria! Old friends of mine!
	4:52pm Avspuk: ↳ People Like Us @4:32 I've several shoeboxes of peel shows on tape somewhere
	4:53pm People Like Us: ↳ Avspuk @4:52 John Peel and David Jensen
	🥀 4:53pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Avspuk @4:50 I always think Slade are worthy of a deeper dive than many give credit for. And I kind of see where Todd is coming from there.
	4:54pm ?: Fever Ray is my new favorite 😍... Great Playlist AGAIN Monamie!!
	4:56pm Paul Szepesvary: Fever Ray is my 2020s favorite 😍 ... Great Playlist AGAIN Mona!
	4:57pm DanFA: ↳ Song: "Lonesome Town" by "Ricky Nelson" The Cramps cover of this is also great.
	4:57pm People Like Us: ↳ Song: "Lonesome Town" by "Ricky Nelson" now I'm thinking CRAMPS
	🥀 4:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Lonesome Town" by "Ricky Nelson" frinkiac.com...
	4:58pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:53 I have taken a step back & reviewed my views, but Noddy & Co, (great tho they are) just aren't as significant/important & those other 2 imo But whatever
	4:59pm DanFA: ↳ People Like Us @4:57 Tis the season, Vicki.
	🥀 5:00pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): <3
	5:00pm Avspuk: ↳ People Like Us @4:53 Maybe some Janice Long? But deffo no Tommy Vance 😉

	🥀 5:07pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Andres @5:04 Didi mau also questionable. frinkiac.com...
	🥀 5:10pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @5:03 It was such a good time! Some really outstanding performances and it was still going strong when we left around 10:30
	🥀 5:10pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "No Title (Molly)" by "John Maus" Love this song 🖤
	🥀 5:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:10 We also would have accepted "without Chris and Handy and K8, it was pretty sedate, and everyone was mourning their absence too much to have fun. Also, there was nothing to drink and the PATH stopped running and the toppings were also cursed."
	5:14pm DanFA: Mona, did you go to the Craft screening?
	5:15pm ben & Reba: Hey Mona, happy Friday from Butler PA

	5:20pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Hazy Shade of Winter" by "The Bangles" The song stays with me but memories of it in the soundtrack and the movie itself are also hazy. I remember liking it but won’t rewatch for fear of spoiling it.

	🥀 5:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @5:23 Oh, the humanity!
	5:26pm Andres: The first single I bought was The Go-Go’s - We Got The Beat. That was where I learned the lesson of the other speed on the turntable. “Who are these dudes? I bought the wrong record!”. :)
	5:27pm Al Garve: ↳ Song: "Twenty-Seven Strangers" by "Villagers" Reminds me if the Brett Dennan song, Ain't No Reason

	5:59pm courtneynoir: *played it at the wrong speed
	5:59pm RB: Thanks Mona !
	6:01pm NobleDestro: WFMU was the first thing I found and shared my fascination with music at the wrong speed, besides the Chipmunks but that's the other way. I think cosmic cowboy played Lady in Red in 33 and The sensation was something on a par with discovering self pleasure. Today probably third most intense experience period, is Don't fear the reaper at 66%

	🥀 3:10pm Adi From Sheffield: I think Matt would be a good guest on Techtonic as well.
	3:10pm efd: plenty of other places you can go listen to music instead of complaining here.
	3:11pm P.Welles: I am trying to get in to the The The concert in Montreal. I dont have a phone thing to buy tickets. Help! can I buy a ticket at the door This predicament is horrible!
	3:12pm egould: ↳ Hubig Pie @3:09 And Clark Gable's. And Rex Bell.
	3:12pm P.Welles: Ensoulment is so good!
	🥀 3:13pm bluecharlie: Hi Mona! 🥰
	🥀 3:13pm Adi From Sheffield: I saw The The around the Mind Bomb era. That wasn't yesterday 😀

	3:16pm P.Welles: Fan since Controversial Subject on 4AD

	3:17pm P.Welles: ↳ People Like Us @3:16 Will call and see. I am getting anxiety about modern ticket practices.
	3:17pm Hubig Pie: ↳ vrykoluka @3:13 Well that proves I'm obviously no flim scholar
	🥀 3:18pm chris in the redwoods: hi, Mona and everyone! digging the tunes and interview! :)
	🥀 3:19pm Adi From Sheffield: I do like Johnson's lyrically caustic form. We need songwriters of his ilk now more than ever.
	3:19pm Picante Mint: ↳ P.Welles @3:17 I saw Duster this past weekend and the venue forces you to use their mobile app to get the QR code ticket. I do not like it one bit, give me a ticket stub or will call option!
	3:20pm Anon: I have always wondered, so does anyone have any insights or thoughts about why The The’s two best known songs (Uncertain Smile and This is the Day) are so completely different from the rest of Matt Johnson’s work?
	3:21pm rf: He's got a good voice
	3:21pm People Like Us: ↳ Picante Mint @3:19 they have to have a desk for non-digital to deal with it though

	🥀 3:25pm Handy Haversack: Well, "people" used to just mean "slave owner," so really the governing class is trying to stay true to its ideals still. The government has always been of, by, and for them.
	3:25pm Nick K: It’s probably the worst ever right now under our current administration
	🥀 3:25pm chris in the redwoods: i think Matt has got this spot on. the phrase 'extreme center' perfectly describes this late-stage capitalist nightmare we're in.
	3:26pm Hörer Christoph: Great interview, great guy. Makes me want to revisit The The
	3:28pm rf: The first track seemed kind of interesting but the following two are kind of boring? great voice though, and i agree with the sentiments
	3:29pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:25 Yet people clamor for ever more government. It's kind of depressing really.
	3:29pm P.Welles: ↳ People Like Us @3:22 called, have to go to box tonight or tomorrow!
	3:30pm P.Welles: office
	🥀 3:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ egould @3:29 People call for protection from the governing class. Supposedly, the government exists to protect us. It's just that it doesn't.
	3:30pm People Like Us: ↳ P.Welles @3:29 excellent
	3:31pm egould: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:30 Government exists to protect itself, and those who control it.
	🥀 3:32pm chris in the redwoods: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:30 perhaps that speaks to elected representatives consistently failing to represent us.
	3:32pm rf: aw <3 Matt Bought the album anyhow
	3:36pm dana: Listening to this interview make me want this album I have almost all of his others and have seen him twice Knowing meanings hits home

	🥀 3:47pm Handy Haversack: That was a great conversation! Thanks, Mona and Matt!
	3:47pm Anon: The government’s interest in just preserving and enhancing its power is why I do my best to have nothing to do with it. I don’t even vote!
	3:47pm Hubig Pie: ↳ Song: "This Is The Day" by "The The" Love that concertina thingy
	3:48pm People Like Us: www.thethe.com
	3:50pm Anon: Actually nobody should vote because that just gives legitimacy to the government that oppresses us
	3:51pm Vanejsa: ↳ Song: "Interview" by "Matt Johnson (The The)" oh, I love Matt Johnson/the the, but I just got off work, I'll have to listen to archives later.

	4:01pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Jolene" by "The White Stripes" The first White Stripes I heard. My friend from Scotland who was the biggest Dolly Parton and White Stripes fan played it for me.
	4:02pm Bob in DC and/or Virginia: ↳ Song: "Jolene" by "The White Stripes" Classic song, of course. But I always wondered why Jolene is the only person in this relationship with any agency.

	🥀 4:27pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "join in the chant (gold!)" by "Nitzer Ebb" feeling my freshman year of college coming on!
	4:27pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:23 It seems nearly all the wfmu DJs were buying UK import singles in their late teens. It's been a fairly brit-tastic week here & on the streams

	🥀 4:30pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "A Question of Lust" by "Depeche Mode" Gonna send this out to the memory of my dear friend Corwin whose funeral was 30 years ago today. DM was his favorite band. He loved to make up words to their songs and razz his friends and this was one of his favs. He really deserved more than 24 years on this planet. Fuck cancer.
	4:30pm cristinap: monty hall needs to have a goth dance party because there aren't really any accessible
	4:30pm People Like Us: ↳ Avspuk @4:27 in turn we were buying Eurobeat :)
	🥀 4:31pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:30 I was buying Chicago/New York house imports 😉

	🥀 4:36pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Bobby @4:35 But we're pretty sure Mona's in. She's playing Tuxedomoon!
	🥀 4:36pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:32 My overriding thought about consumption of music was having to wait for releases. I would hear a pre release on the radio and it wouldn't be out for ages so taping was often an option for my impatient younger self as well 😀
	🥀 4:37pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @4:33 We used to hang out at Exchange Place and whenever I head over to the station I think abt him. So not fair to take someone so young. I was thinking abt it when Matt was talking about losing his brother earlier.
	4:37pm People Like Us: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:36 I mostly couldn't afford everything I wanted when in early teens so would tape it or share tapes - but Uncertain Smile by The The was my first 12 inch :)
	4:38pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @4:30 24 years? Aw jeez.

	🥀 4:41pm Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Handy Haversack @4:39 <3
	🥀 4:41pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ People Like Us @4:37 My Dad's job was supplying jukeboxes to pubs so I had a fortunate supply of ex jukebox 7"s. I later used to shop at Warp Records in Sheffield which would later become the ubiquitous label etc. I spent what I had on little else back then 😁

	4:49pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Lose It" by "Austra" ❤️
	4:50pm morphe': Attuned !!!
	4:50pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:31 I'm a lil bit older & couldn't really afford imports, Tho I did buy the I'm bored Destroy All Monsters 7" As for what travelled, the reverence the station has for Nick Lowe & Dave Edmunds surprises me, I suppose they & the Feelgoods were the last generation to be directly/solely inspired by Americana. Also the yanks attitude to glam (Todd-o-phonic Todd said he ranks Slade with the stones & the velvets,!!!?!!) can be jarring at times & makes me look at my own biases. But treating Depeche Mode like they're as innovative/significsnt as Kraftwerk is just a step too far for me. :) Still, whatever, its all good & the DJs all clearly know their stuff & I've yet to donate so maybe I should just shut me gob like. Still it takes all sorts
	4:50pm ViolaChica: Austria! Old friends of mine!
	4:52pm Avspuk: ↳ People Like Us @4:32 I've several shoeboxes of peel shows on tape somewhere
	4:53pm People Like Us: ↳ Avspuk @4:52 John Peel and David Jensen

	🥀 4:58pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Lonesome Town" by "Ricky Nelson" frinkiac.com...
	4:58pm Avspuk: ↳ Adi From Sheffield @4:53 I have taken a step back & reviewed my views, but Noddy & Co, (great tho they are) just aren't as significant/important & those other 2 imo But whatever
	4:59pm DanFA: ↳ People Like Us @4:57 Tis the season, Vicki.

	🥀 5:10pm Ciggy: ↳ Song: "No Title (Molly)" by "John Maus" Love this song 🖤
	🥀 5:12pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:10 We also would have accepted "without Chris and Handy and K8, it was pretty sedate, and everyone was mourning their absence too much to have fun. Also, there was nothing to drink and the PATH stopped running and the toppings were also cursed."
	5:14pm DanFA: Mona, did you go to the Craft screening?
	5:15pm ben & Reba: Hey Mona, happy Friday from Butler PA
	🥀 5:19pm Adi From Sheffield: ↳ Song: "Hazy Shade of Winter" by "The Bangles" That snare never recovered. ❤️
	5:19pm Jesse Dorris: ↳ Song: "Hazy Shade of Winter" by "The Bangles" TAMBOURINE
	5:19pm Eric the Hat: This Bangles track only represents Less Than Zero to me since the first time I saw it.
	5:20pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Hazy Shade of Winter" by "The Bangles" The song stays with me but memories of it in the soundtrack and the movie itself are also hazy. I remember liking it but won’t rewatch for fear of spoiling it.
	5:20pm DanFA: ↳ Eric the Hat @5:19 The lesson of Less Than Zero: don't do drugs or James Spader will sell you into prostitution.
	5:20pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @5:10 I hope you sang yer numbers loud, was cupping my ear from the ancestral homeland.
	5:21pm Andres: ↳ DanFA @5:20 James Spader is a baddie.
	5:21pm Eric the Hat: Mot mom made me watch that movie when I was like twelve. Definitely only wanted drugs more after that. lol
	5:22pm Eric the Hat: My*
	5:22pm DanFA: ↳ Andres @5:21 Love James Spader in general.
	🥀 5:22pm Adi From Sheffield: Mona having a cheeky John Peel moment there 😂
	5:22pm Andres: ↳ Song: "Oh No, Not My Baby" by "Maxine Brown" I was liking it at 33. Still digging.
	5:23pm Andres: ↳ DanFA @5:22 Agreed.
	5:23pm Eric the Hat: Third that emotion…
	5:23pm Chris in Kensington Bklyn: ↳ Handy Haversack @5:12 "And no one sang their version of In the Year 2525."
	🥀 5:24pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Chris in Kensington Bklyn @5:23 Oh, the humanity!
	5:26pm Andres: The first single I bought was The Go-Go’s - We Got The Beat. That was where I learned the lesson of the other speed on the turntable. “Who are these dudes? I bought the wrong record!”. :)

	5:59pm bradford: Thanks, Mona!
	5:59pm courtneynoir: *played it at the wrong speed
	5:59pm RB: Thanks Mona !
	6:01pm NobleDestro: WFMU was the first thing I found and shared my fascination with music at the wrong speed, besides the Chipmunks but that's the other way. I think cosmic cowboy played Lady in Red in 33 and The sensation was something on a par with discovering self pleasure. Today probably third most intense experience period, is Don't fear the reaper at 66%
