	3:06am Julie: Gremlins!
	3:07am Marmalade kitty: Aha, I thought so!
	3:08am Andrew: Hi Julie, fred & Marmalade Kitty ^_^ wow, I heard this & thought it was someone else, her voice sounds so much like...someone from the 80s, i forget who. Also i thought that was Dum dum's Cristmas mewtal song, good start to the show! ^_^ Will the dwarf be on during the first break?

	3:11am Julie: The dwarf is bound and gagged my own special way to celebrate.
	3:12am fred: Good morning MK and Andrew
	3:12am Julie: last year I did a whole Xmas set, this year I've just mixed it in, so don't get confused trying to figure out how a song is Christmasy :)
	3:12am Julie: And hi Andrew!
	3:13am Laurie: Hey Julie!!!!!!!! Stopping in to say hi!!! xoxo Oh yay! I missed Carol of the Bells. That is my most hated Christmas Carol---unless it's done by the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Otherwise, it makes me anxious. Curious to see what you have lined up for us tonight. :)
	3:15am Julie: Laurie it was a metal version. And hi!
	3:15am Marmalade kitty: Good morning everyone! :)
	3:16am Laurie: Was it? Aw rats. I have to go listen to it in the archives then. You rock. Should've known that you wouldn't torture me.
	3:17am Julie: Any "real" christmas carols are not traditional versions, though I do have one tucked away that I may finish with.
	3:19am Andrew: Well, i was thinking this Godless track was a reference to the over commercialization of Christmas ^_^ Good song!
	3:22am Laurie: Feeling especially dark tonight, Julie?
	3:23am fred: @Andrew: over-commercialized? I didn't realize there anything non-commercial about Xmas.
	3:23am Julie: I like to keep the Xmas shows dark
	3:27am Laurie: This current song playing reminds me of the soundtrack from Legend by Tangerine Dream. I used to paint to that soundtrack all the time in college.
	3:27am Julie: This is kind of mellow for them/her. And usually there are vocals
	3:30am Laurie: Unfortunately, have to go, but I'm glad I got to stop in and visit for a bit. Hugs to you, Julie xo
	3:31am Julie: Goodnight Laurie, have a nice Christmas!
	3:32am Marmalade kitty: any sign of the cd I posted, Julie?
	3:34am Julie: No, sorry MK :(
	3:34am siggi: confused
	3:34am Marmalade kitty: spot the christmas track!
	3:34am Julie: hi there Siggi. What are you confused about?
	3:35am Howard in PDX: So happy to hear KRISTEEN YOUNG! And so happy to have found your show, Julie. I'm used to hearing you between Fabio and Clay, but I only recently realized you have your own show and how fantastic it is. I never miss it now, I LOVE it. Thank you! xo
	3:35am Julie: hi there Howard!
	3:35am siggi: myself
	3:35am Julie: wow Howard, thank you!
	3:38am Howard in PDX: I now blame you for the stack of CDs I still haven't listened to. There is only so much time, and I wanna listen to your show.
	3:38am Julie: ah that's an epidemic howard
	3:39am Marmalade kitty: Julie, It's probably held up in the Christmas post. Hope you get it
	3:40am bruce: hello julie
	3:47am Julie: Hi there Bruce!
	3:48am bruce: merry christmas
	3:48am Julie: Thank you, Bruce, same to you!
	3:48am Dr Van Dee: Morning everybody!
	3:50am Julie: Good morning, Dr. Van Dee!
	3:50am siggi: good morning dr van
	3:52am Andrew: Haven't heard this Bee Gees track. Reminds me a bit of the start of Ruby Tuesday. I like it. Hi Dr Van Dee & Howard & siggi & bruce ^_^
	3:54am Marmalade kitty: just checked that Pink Floyd song, i'd never heard it.. Nick mason singing apparently? 1975 BBC radio broadcast..
	3:54am Julie: Yep that was Nick.
	4:04am Marmalade kitty: Unreleased Pink Floyd material: pinkfloydhyperbase.dk/unreleased/index.html
	4:05am Julie: You think Syd would have done a whole song about Figgy pudding or some such thing
	4:06am Marmalade kitty: surely!
	4:07am Andrew: wow, I love this unwoman track. Never heard of them before. & the Emilie simon track.
	4:11am Julie: Y'all better be dancing
	4:15am Marmalade kitty: Talking heads Duran Duran Depeche mode and Human League all in one????
	4:16am Julie: @MK good band, isn't it?
	4:19am Andrew: I thought that was David Byrne singing at the start of that song.
	4:20am Julie: @Andrew I thought the same thing! Will have to look into him/them more
	4:24am Marmalade kitty: just done a google image search for cave girl.. lol :)
	4:28am Dr Van Dee: Cave girl as in the british TV show? I used to watch it constantly when I was at university...
	4:29am Andrew: woohoo inkubus sukkubus ^_^ I love them, have listened to the live set so many times now. cave girl? I just looked & there's some weird images...one looks like a cartoon costume.
	4:37am Julie: That reminds me, I've done a little "greatest hits of live" on the FMA, I don't think it's featured, but search for Julieb on there you may find it
	4:38am Andrew: hehe, doors christmas songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERS-P1xQLn8
	4:39am Marmalade kitty: I never saw the TV show, was it good :) I'm loving the Bunnymen! Been listening to them alot lately
	4:40am Julie: Is that the Mario Cantone bit?
	4:40am Julie: Moody Blues did a whole Christmas album, but it's recent and not that great.
	4:42am Marmalade kitty: Riders on a sleigh! lol!
	4:43am Dr Van Dee: The TV show was appalling, it was notable only for the girls in skimpy cavewoman costumes. Amazing that the BBC ever commissioned it actually...
	4:43am Julie: Do you really need more than that, Dr. Van Dee?
	4:45am Dr Van Dee: No, that's all I need. I actually have a DVD of it somewhere...
	4:45am Marmalade kitty: Thats hilarious, Andrew!!
	4:46am Julie: I must see this
	4:46am Julie: I assume it was on the coattails of the Raquel film
	4:47am jamesie: Lou was OK then, in fact I admired him
	4:47am Matt from Springfield: Hi Julie! LOVE this one, have you ever played it before?
	4:48am Julie: @Jamesie oh yes, great stuff. @Matt yes I have
	4:48am Julie: and good morning to both of you, Matt & Jamesie (not wanting anyone to storm off this week)
	4:49am fred: Wouldn't "the gift" be more in tune with the season? Not a criticism by any means there, Julie, the thought just crossed my mind.
	4:50am Julie: @Fred didn't consider it, I just wanted to hear that one
	4:51am jamesie: :) high there Julie xx
	4:51am Marmalade kitty: genius simplistic VU
	4:52am fred: @Julie: best reason there is
	4:55am fred: OK, I'm outta here. For real. At the end of this track. Before the next one makes me even later. Thanks Julie!
	4:56am Julie: Goodnight Fred!
	4:56am Marmalade kitty: see ya, fred!
	4:56am Matt from Springfield: Oooh, NICE Mazzy Star! See ya later fred!
	4:58am fred: I'm off to work, not sleep. My boss should buy me an android so I can listen on my commute. That's the only way I'll check in earlier on Tuesdays.
	5:00am Julie: Yeah I was just about to correct that. Thanks for taking the time to come by. Merry Christmas!
	5:03am Van in Dallas: I think I'm still dreaming, but going back to sleep just to be sure. Wanted to say HI Julie and Dark Night listeners before I do though. Happy day to you all! :)
	5:04am Andrew: aw, missed a heap because my computer crashed (plus i was writing a huge email that is gone now O_Q) last I heard was Venus in furs..... cya fred
	5:04am Julie: Hi Van! Bye Van!
	5:05am Van in Dallas: Archive, hear I come (in a few hours)! :)
	5:05am Julie: Aw Andrew you missed the BEST STUFF EVER, right guys?
	5:07am Matt from Springfield: Yeah! But, how convenient that the Archive computers are always more dependable than our personal ones!
	5:08am Matt from Springfield: You should have played this right after "You're Lost Little Girl", the chords sound the same.
	5:08am Marmalade kitty: Le Martien heavy breathing in right speaker!
	5:09am Julie: Yeah I guess I missed that. I love the sound of that Francoise song
	5:10am Matt from Springfield: I'm looking up All About Eve's history--if this is '89, this is probably right before Marty Willson-Piper joined the lineup.
	5:10am Marmalade kitty: Matt, you type very swiftly :)
	5:11am Andrew: are they Australian? he's from The Church
	5:11am Julie: no, English
	5:12am Matt from Springfield: Ha ha, touch typing, Kitty! :) Type as you think, think-typing, that's the next innovation we need!
	5:12am Julie: I type much faster than I write by hand
	5:13am Marmalade kitty: Its a good skill!
	5:14am Matt from Springfield: @MK: Also, Internet tabs for browsing--for serial browsers like me, it's one of the best innovations in recent years. Look up anything or go back and forth between sites--without even switching windows! Mah-vellous!
	5:17am Matt from Springfield: Nice Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies!
	5:19am Andrew: heh...except when you have 30 or so tabs open & chrome doesn't save them like it should (which is what just happened to me, grr) a long search of the history to get them back. I also type faster that I write by hand & I cant touch type.
	5:20am Matt from Springfield: @Andrew: Marty is in fact English (Liverpudlian!), he didn't move to Australia until he was an adult. I love AAE and The Church though, they're great! Firefox! Cures (most) ills!
	5:24am Matt from Springfield: Oh my dear Persephone Oh my dear Persephone...
	5:24am Julie: I gave up on FF, kept crashing on me
	5:25am Julie: I played that one...ages ago
	5:26am Marmalade kitty: It's mid morning UK. have to do some Christmaas shopping! Ideally, I would avoid the xmas rat race in town, but I'm never clever enough to shop early!?
	5:27am Julie: @MK me either! I'm not done!
	5:31am Marmalade kitty: socks ties chocolates perfume scarfs..!!!!!
	5:31am Andrew: or when the computer resets itself right after you type the last comment... O_Q i was using FF which worked fine for me & then i changed to chrome, which was ok at first. sighhhhh
	5:32am T-Zero: Morning... overslept
	5:32am Julie: Good morning, T zero!
	5:33am Matt from Springfield: I fortunately don't have much shopping left to do--I was focused enough to get everything from Best Buy (a big-box retailer) all in one go, so I don't need to go back there! <credit card dent!>
	5:33am Marmalade kitty: ..& scarves! Wakey wakey TZ :)
	5:34am Andrew: Hi T-zero & Matt I have about 1/4 of my christmas shopping done.
	5:35am Matt from Springfield: @MK: Lovely gifts all! :) I should've asked for a scarf, I don't have one! I'm usually warm enough, but they look so cool I want one just for the fashion (Tom Baker y'know!) :)
	5:36am T-Zero: Fortunately, my family made the decision years ago to stop buying gifts, except for the children in the family.
	5:37am Marmalade kitty: My mum knits 'em ;)
	5:38am Andrew: That'd be a huge scarf ^_^ What exactly is coldwave? I've got some I downloaded, I l;ike it, dunno why it's called coldwave though. oh yeh? I know a few people who've done that T-zero. It's a hassle buying presents i reckon.
	5:39am Matt from Springfield: Coldwave to greet the upcoming Solstice!! YES YOU CAN, Julie!! Do it!
	5:39am Julie: nah I like this song too much!
	5:40am Matt from Springfield: @TZ: I think most families evolve to that point--we still get each other a couple items to open as adults, but really it's hard to buy for people anyway once they reach a certain age. @MK: That's cool!
	5:41am Andrew: wow, I wondered who the cover was & then i saw the name & thought, uh....either that was a weird version they did or wrong speed ^_^ One thing though, I've bought records & they had no speed written anywhere, so I don't know if I'm actually listneing at the right speed. They are mostly instrumentals. I love this song too ^_^ such a happy song
	5:43am Matt from Springfield: Really I like this song too--but how funny that sounded! @Julie: Tell your sisters how you played that one too fast on the radio!
	5:44am Julie: oh wow you remember that story, don't you
	5:45am Matt from Springfield: Oooh, Wassailing! Faith & the Muse does this GREAT! Like the Classical choir pieces WETA airs (or used to anyway) around Christmastime! @Julie: You've previously mentioned your long history with Jeremiah the Bullfrog!
	5:49am T-Zero: LOL At first I thought they were saying potatoes of love... I was like, whaaa?
	5:51am Matt from Springfield: @TZ: Kartoffeln der Liebe! :)
	5:52am Julie: mmm potatoes
	5:53am Matt from Springfield: Wow...something else!! :D
	5:54am Matt from Springfield: Bluesy! "T.T. Top"!
	5:54am Andrew: yehhhh t-rex!!! I love this one.
	5:55am Julie: Okay coming up the best christmas song of all time :D Thanks for listening, and happy hanukah/solstice/festivus/christmas!
	5:56am Marmalade kitty: Is it uncool to like "the police"? I've been listening a lot... lately :)
	5:56am Andrew: awww, over already! O_Q great show tonight Julie. Hope you have a great christmas too! ^_^
	5:57am Julie: @MK I like them!
	5:57am Matt from Springfield: Ah, Christmas Spectorpop--that's still a great album: Darlene Love, The Ronettes, and a creepy spoken outro from Mr. Spector!
	5:58am Marmalade kitty: Have a Merry Christmas everybody!
	5:59am Matt from Springfield: @MK: As do I! Indulge your tastes!
	5:59am Andrew: merry christmas! ^_^ hope you all have a good christmas. see you next week! ^_^
	5:59am Matt from Springfield: Thanks Julie for a great Christmas show! Goodbye everyone! Happy Christmas to all!
	6:01am T-Zero: Merry Christmas.... Happy Hanukkah
	12:12pm Van in Dallas: Alright! Time for the magic of WFMU archive to bring this wonderful new installation of Dark Night of the Soul to my ears!
	12:40pm Van in Dallas: Astute observation by Laurie, I think about the Void Vision sounding like Legend of TG. Love that album! And they will be live? wonderful! :)
	1:09pm Van in Dallas: KATE! :)
	2:10pm other david: Tuning in via the archives and feeling thoroughly Gothmas-like! Mazzy Star's - Bells Ring was bothering me, I've never heard the acoustic version before and it reminded me of something else... something I couldnt place.. then it hit me like a ton of bricks: The guitar & strings are a total knock off of U2's - All I Want Is You! Colour me shocked and horrified :P Happy Christmas Julie & all you lovely commenters!
	3:49pm Van in Dallas: Hey that Three Dog Night sounded pretty cool on Chipmunk speed :)
	4:07pm Van in Dallas: Very nice show, many thank you's Julie! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and all that stuff to you and all listeners!

	3:54am Marmalade kitty: just checked that Pink Floyd song, i'd never heard it.. Nick mason singing apparently? 1975 BBC radio broadcast..
	3:54am Julie: Yep that was Nick.
	4:04am Marmalade kitty: Unreleased Pink Floyd material: pinkfloydhyperbase.dk/unreleased/index.html
	4:05am Julie: You think Syd would have done a whole song about Figgy pudding or some such thing
	4:06am Marmalade kitty: surely!
	4:07am Andrew: wow, I love this unwoman track. Never heard of them before. & the Emilie simon track.
	4:11am Julie: Y'all better be dancing
	4:15am Marmalade kitty: Talking heads Duran Duran Depeche mode and Human League all in one????
	4:16am Julie: @MK good band, isn't it?
	4:19am Andrew: I thought that was David Byrne singing at the start of that song.
	4:20am Julie: @Andrew I thought the same thing! Will have to look into him/them more
	4:24am Marmalade kitty: just done a google image search for cave girl.. lol :)
	4:28am Dr Van Dee: Cave girl as in the british TV show? I used to watch it constantly when I was at university...
	4:29am Andrew: woohoo inkubus sukkubus ^_^ I love them, have listened to the live set so many times now. cave girl? I just looked & there's some weird images...one looks like a cartoon costume.
	4:37am Julie: That reminds me, I've done a little "greatest hits of live" on the FMA, I don't think it's featured, but search for Julieb on there you may find it
	4:38am Andrew: hehe, doors christmas songs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERS-P1xQLn8
	4:39am Marmalade kitty: I never saw the TV show, was it good :) I'm loving the Bunnymen! Been listening to them alot lately
	4:40am Julie: Is that the Mario Cantone bit?
	4:40am Julie: Moody Blues did a whole Christmas album, but it's recent and not that great.
	4:42am Marmalade kitty: Riders on a sleigh! lol!
	4:43am Dr Van Dee: The TV show was appalling, it was notable only for the girls in skimpy cavewoman costumes. Amazing that the BBC ever commissioned it actually...
	4:43am Julie: Do you really need more than that, Dr. Van Dee?
	4:45am Dr Van Dee: No, that's all I need. I actually have a DVD of it somewhere...
	4:45am Marmalade kitty: Thats hilarious, Andrew!!
	4:46am Julie: I must see this
	4:46am Julie: I assume it was on the coattails of the Raquel film
	4:47am jamesie: Lou was OK then, in fact I admired him
	4:47am Matt from Springfield: Hi Julie! LOVE this one, have you ever played it before?
	4:48am Julie: @Jamesie oh yes, great stuff. @Matt yes I have
	4:48am Julie: and good morning to both of you, Matt & Jamesie (not wanting anyone to storm off this week)
	4:49am fred: Wouldn't "the gift" be more in tune with the season? Not a criticism by any means there, Julie, the thought just crossed my mind.
	4:50am Julie: @Fred didn't consider it, I just wanted to hear that one
	4:51am jamesie: :) high there Julie xx
	4:51am Marmalade kitty: genius simplistic VU
	4:52am fred: @Julie: best reason there is
	4:55am fred: OK, I'm outta here. For real. At the end of this track. Before the next one makes me even later. Thanks Julie!
	4:56am Julie: Goodnight Fred!
	4:56am Marmalade kitty: see ya, fred!
	4:56am Matt from Springfield: Oooh, NICE Mazzy Star! See ya later fred!
	4:58am fred: I'm off to work, not sleep. My boss should buy me an android so I can listen on my commute. That's the only way I'll check in earlier on Tuesdays.
	5:00am Julie: Yeah I was just about to correct that. Thanks for taking the time to come by. Merry Christmas!
	5:03am Van in Dallas: I think I'm still dreaming, but going back to sleep just to be sure. Wanted to say HI Julie and Dark Night listeners before I do though. Happy day to you all! :)
	5:04am Andrew: aw, missed a heap because my computer crashed (plus i was writing a huge email that is gone now O_Q) last I heard was Venus in furs..... cya fred
	5:04am Julie: Hi Van! Bye Van!
	5:05am Van in Dallas: Archive, hear I come (in a few hours)! :)
	5:05am Julie: Aw Andrew you missed the BEST STUFF EVER, right guys?
	5:07am Matt from Springfield: Yeah! But, how convenient that the Archive computers are always more dependable than our personal ones!
	5:08am Matt from Springfield: You should have played this right after "You're Lost Little Girl", the chords sound the same.
	5:08am Marmalade kitty: Le Martien heavy breathing in right speaker!
	5:09am Julie: Yeah I guess I missed that. I love the sound of that Francoise song
	5:10am Matt from Springfield: I'm looking up All About Eve's history--if this is '89, this is probably right before Marty Willson-Piper joined the lineup.
	5:10am Marmalade kitty: Matt, you type very swiftly :)
	5:11am Andrew: are they Australian? he's from The Church
	5:11am Julie: no, English
	5:12am Matt from Springfield: Ha ha, touch typing, Kitty! :) Type as you think, think-typing, that's the next innovation we need!
	5:12am Julie: I type much faster than I write by hand
	5:13am Marmalade kitty: Its a good skill!
	5:14am Matt from Springfield: @MK: Also, Internet tabs for browsing--for serial browsers like me, it's one of the best innovations in recent years. Look up anything or go back and forth between sites--without even switching windows! Mah-vellous!
	5:17am Matt from Springfield: Nice Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairies!
	5:19am Andrew: heh...except when you have 30 or so tabs open & chrome doesn't save them like it should (which is what just happened to me, grr) a long search of the history to get them back. I also type faster that I write by hand & I cant touch type.
	5:20am Matt from Springfield: @Andrew: Marty is in fact English (Liverpudlian!), he didn't move to Australia until he was an adult. I love AAE and The Church though, they're great! Firefox! Cures (most) ills!
	5:24am Matt from Springfield: Oh my dear Persephone Oh my dear Persephone...
	5:24am Julie: I gave up on FF, kept crashing on me
	5:25am Julie: I played that one...ages ago
	5:26am Marmalade kitty: It's mid morning UK. have to do some Christmaas shopping! Ideally, I would avoid the xmas rat race in town, but I'm never clever enough to shop early!?
	5:27am Julie: @MK me either! I'm not done!
	5:31am Marmalade kitty: socks ties chocolates perfume scarfs..!!!!!
	5:31am Andrew: or when the computer resets itself right after you type the last comment... O_Q i was using FF which worked fine for me & then i changed to chrome, which was ok at first. sighhhhh
	5:32am T-Zero: Morning... overslept
	5:32am Julie: Good morning, T zero!
	5:33am Matt from Springfield: I fortunately don't have much shopping left to do--I was focused enough to get everything from Best Buy (a big-box retailer) all in one go, so I don't need to go back there! <credit card dent!>
	5:33am Marmalade kitty: ..& scarves! Wakey wakey TZ :)
	5:34am Andrew: Hi T-zero & Matt I have about 1/4 of my christmas shopping done.
	5:35am Matt from Springfield: @MK: Lovely gifts all! :) I should've asked for a scarf, I don't have one! I'm usually warm enough, but they look so cool I want one just for the fashion (Tom Baker y'know!) :)
	5:36am T-Zero: Fortunately, my family made the decision years ago to stop buying gifts, except for the children in the family.
	5:37am Marmalade kitty: My mum knits 'em ;)
	5:38am Andrew: That'd be a huge scarf ^_^ What exactly is coldwave? I've got some I downloaded, I l;ike it, dunno why it's called coldwave though. oh yeh? I know a few people who've done that T-zero. It's a hassle buying presents i reckon.
	5:39am Matt from Springfield: Coldwave to greet the upcoming Solstice!! YES YOU CAN, Julie!! Do it!
	5:39am Julie: nah I like this song too much!
	5:40am Matt from Springfield: @TZ: I think most families evolve to that point--we still get each other a couple items to open as adults, but really it's hard to buy for people anyway once they reach a certain age. @MK: That's cool!
	5:41am Andrew: wow, I wondered who the cover was & then i saw the name & thought, uh....either that was a weird version they did or wrong speed ^_^ One thing though, I've bought records & they had no speed written anywhere, so I don't know if I'm actually listneing at the right speed. They are mostly instrumentals. I love this song too ^_^ such a happy song
	5:43am Matt from Springfield: Really I like this song too--but how funny that sounded! @Julie: Tell your sisters how you played that one too fast on the radio!
	5:44am Julie: oh wow you remember that story, don't you
	5:45am Matt from Springfield: Oooh, Wassailing! Faith & the Muse does this GREAT! Like the Classical choir pieces WETA airs (or used to anyway) around Christmastime! @Julie: You've previously mentioned your long history with Jeremiah the Bullfrog!
	5:49am T-Zero: LOL At first I thought they were saying potatoes of love... I was like, whaaa?
	5:51am Matt from Springfield: @TZ: Kartoffeln der Liebe! :)
	5:52am Julie: mmm potatoes
	5:53am Matt from Springfield: Wow...something else!! :D
	5:54am Matt from Springfield: Bluesy! "T.T. Top"!
	5:54am Andrew: yehhhh t-rex!!! I love this one.
	5:55am Julie: Okay coming up the best christmas song of all time :D Thanks for listening, and happy hanukah/solstice/festivus/christmas!
	5:56am Marmalade kitty: Is it uncool to like "the police"? I've been listening a lot... lately :)
	5:56am Andrew: awww, over already! O_Q great show tonight Julie. Hope you have a great christmas too! ^_^
	5:57am Julie: @MK I like them!
	5:57am Matt from Springfield: Ah, Christmas Spectorpop--that's still a great album: Darlene Love, The Ronettes, and a creepy spoken outro from Mr. Spector!
	5:58am Marmalade kitty: Have a Merry Christmas everybody!
	5:59am Matt from Springfield: @MK: As do I! Indulge your tastes!
	5:59am Andrew: merry christmas! ^_^ hope you all have a good christmas. see you next week! ^_^
	5:59am Matt from Springfield: Thanks Julie for a great Christmas show! Goodbye everyone! Happy Christmas to all!
	6:01am T-Zero: Merry Christmas.... Happy Hanukkah
	12:12pm Van in Dallas: Alright! Time for the magic of WFMU archive to bring this wonderful new installation of Dark Night of the Soul to my ears!
	12:40pm Van in Dallas: Astute observation by Laurie, I think about the Void Vision sounding like Legend of TG. Love that album! And they will be live? wonderful! :)
	1:09pm Van in Dallas: KATE! :)
	2:10pm other david: Tuning in via the archives and feeling thoroughly Gothmas-like! Mazzy Star's - Bells Ring was bothering me, I've never heard the acoustic version before and it reminded me of something else... something I couldnt place.. then it hit me like a ton of bricks: The guitar & strings are a total knock off of U2's - All I Want Is You! Colour me shocked and horrified :P Happy Christmas Julie & all you lovely commenters!
	3:49pm Van in Dallas: Hey that Three Dog Night sounded pretty cool on Chipmunk speed :)
	4:07pm Van in Dallas: Very nice show, many thank you's Julie! Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and all that stuff to you and all listeners!
