Listener comments!
	3:04am fred von helsing: g'morning
	3:05am KP: Hi ya, Julie.
	3:09am KP: Wow. Already.
	🦇 3:10am Julie: Good morning folks!
	3:14am KP: Don't comment while you are interviewing her, it breaks the spell!
	3:20am KP: wow
	3:23am Eyepatch Fox: This is AMAAAAAZING.
	3:23am KP: Yes!
	3:24am KP: They all look shorter.
	3:25am fred von helsing: great great great
	🦇 3:27am Julie: Morning Fred & Fox!
	🦇 3:29am Julie: Glad you like it, because there's lots of it!
	3:30am KP: Hence the early start. My little mins figured that out, sort of.
	3:31am KP: mind
	🦇 3:32am Julie: Off-mic note, this is the song she performed in the movie, but she actually did 1984
	🦇 3:32am Julie: Well, her "character" in the movie.
	3:42am KP: I thought that was you live just then. This is tremendous. I think that is because she and the group are so public but you dont really know what such people are like until they open up in the right setting.
	3:43am fred von helsing: inspiring words from the CC :)
	🦇 3:45am Julie: Vicki Blue made the documentary Edgeplay about the band.
	3:48am Guido (Cologne): Edgeplay is worth seeing.
	🦇 3:48am Julie: Yes, I liked it.
	3:50am fred von helsing: It's on disk. Getting psyched to check it :-D
	3:50am KP: Edgeplay is the only thing ive seen about them. It was great.
	3:52am KP: Read a lot about them. Kim Fowley is of interest to me.
	3:55am fred von helsing: great story about the corset. it's true, the decade's music was visually-oriented, which kinda left me cold, but I could make one exception :-P
	3:55am Guido (Cologne): Some two years ago Arte-TV (France/Germany) did a documentary about all-female-groups. And the resulting tenor was like "most of the time the was only svengali-puppets and the came Warpaint". Taking in considerationthat the feature even included an interview with Cherie Currie, it was all even more than just annoying. It was so painstriking stupid!
	🦇 3:56am Julie: that's a shame guido!
	4:00am Guido (Cologne): Is there a chance that the live footages from Runaways will be available in a decent (Sound/picture) quality in some future? You definetly have to see them live to get the real picture. YouTube helps, but som good sound woul be grat. (By the way Vicki Blue's treatments altered soundwork surprisingly well, but of course only for the documnetary.)
	🦇 4:01am Julie: I think Live in Japan came out on video out some point, not sure it's on DVD though
	4:03am Guido (Cologne): This would be great to have!
	4:03am KP: YA-Runaway.
	4:04am KP: I agree with Cherie.
	4:10am fred von helsing: "and then came Warpaint" uh OK so it's them that's the first to throw off the chains of music industry sexism
	4:10am Mary Wing: Do we get to see her carvings?
	🦇 4:10am Julie: I don't know who Warpaint is
	4:11am fred von helsing: Warpaint's been my fave for a while :-D I describe it to people as stoner psychedelic shoegaze
	4:12am KP: If Guido is not still here, i thought he just meant heavy makeup/
	4:12am fred von helsing: she's right, the net is entrenching sniping and cynicism as social norms and it is very very fucked up
	4:13am KP: Well im wrong. Thanks, FVH.
	4:14am fred von helsing: this gal's a punk zen master :)
	🦇 4:14am Julie: ah FVH I must investigate
	4:14am KP: Ha!
	4:15am Guido (Cologne): No, the documentary actually ended with an interview with Warpaint and about how great group-interaction is. (by the way, I'm a fan of Warpaint myself and I was lucky enaufgh to have them on the only show in Germany i a venue just round the corner from my home.)
	4:15am KP: The Ha was for FVH.
	4:16am fred von helsing: Warpaint - my friends tend to dismiss it as too melancholic but part of what I love about them is in their songs (typically 6~8 minutes) they resolve the melancholy into something positive and filled with the electricity of life. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it :)
	🦇 4:18am Julie: I love that she likes the corny songs too, one super-corny one is coming up, and Ken will hate me for it ;)
	4:18am fred von helsing: I worked a backstage gig and got a chance to chat very briefly with each of them and get a CD autographed. A thrill. I love their music so much.
	4:19am KP: Oh, goodie.
	4:20am Guido (Cologne): Warpaint have a certain sense of funkyness. (And Jenny Lindberg looked like a disco-diva on stage in Cologne.) Yes and they jam their songs out on their shows, which is a great thing.
	4:23am KP: Hey her carvings, nice work.
	4:23am fred von helsing: that's true there's a funkiness but they sort of keep it wrapped in angst which is also oddly cool :)
	🦇 4:24am Julie: Her site is www.chainsawchick.com
	4:25am Guido (Cologne): I have an abivaleentrelation to autographs. I don't like the beautiful artworks to be spoiled. Angst wrappened in funkiness ... some good old tradition ... A Certain Ratio ... Pop Group ... etc.
	4:25am KP: Cool.
	🦇 4:25am Julie: I purposely picked the record with lots of white space. I rarely ask for them.
	4:26am KP: That song was good.
	4:26am Guido (Cologne): Yeeeaaaah ... watch the sculptures! Baselitz F** O and hide, hehehe
	4:27am KP: THat's about the best autograph ive ever seen, for overall look and personal message.
	🦇 4:27am Julie: She signs and poses for pictures after all her shows too.
	🦇 4:28am Julie: I really enjoyed her book. I read the young adult version before I really got into her music.
	4:29am KP: I saw that she posed with with a red-faced Joe Mc.
	4:31am Guido (Cologne): Yesterday I asked Lee Ranaldo NOT to include my my name on the autograph. And ripped the shrink wrap at the place where I wanted it. Now it looks perfect. Fits the design.
	🦇 4:31am Julie: There would've been no PJ Soles!
	4:33am KP: I missed that.
	4:33am Meghan: Morning! Yay I didn't miss this!
	🦇 4:33am Julie: We didn't have time for all her song picks while she was there, so there will be a bunch of those after the interview wraps up
	🦇 4:34am Julie: Morning Meghan, you missed a lot!
	4:34am KP: It's been on since very beginning of show!
	4:34am Meghan: Damn! Archives!
	🦇 4:35am Julie: yeah I started at just after 3am
	4:35am fred von helsing: damn this gal has her head screwed on right
	🦇 4:36am Julie: She went through a lot to get there, and I think the counseling she did helped.
	4:37am Guido (Cologne): @Julie ... typing and interviewing at once ... incredible. ... off to work ... back soon ...
	4:38am KP: There is a bit of that speak, those keywords, but not in off-putting way. It's fascinating.
	🦇 4:38am Julie: bye bye Guido!
	4:39am KP: Finally, Fowley!
	4:40am fred von helsing: hee hee whoops hearing her talk is like hanging out in my neighborhood punk rock bar. so many people with weird junk in their heads squeezing out their souls.
	🦇 4:40am Julie: Im so excited about the new album! Hopefully I can get her back, if only via phone
	4:40am KP: Had no idea she was in touch with him. I thought it was war!
	4:41am fred von helsing: so she's totally clean ? no drink at all ? does she ride the nicotine horse ? a caffeine junkie ? color me curious.
	4:41am KP: This is great.
	🦇 4:41am Julie: While Cherie and I were recording, Kim Fowley was calling in to Chris T on Aerial View
	🦇 4:42am Julie: She smokes electronic cigarettes
	4:42am KP: Somebody wrote that on Facebook. Very funny.
	4:42am Eyepatch Fox: Yay for e-cigs!
	🦇 4:43am Julie: She was sitting there and I was like, whoa there's smoke coming from your hand.
	4:44am fred von helsing: @e-fox I second that. I know people that aren't sure whether it's socially acceptable or not but, well, it's an admission that you're hooked and it's a lot less harmful t'ya.
	🦇 4:44am Julie: The famous corset, by the way, had been stolen and was just returned to her on this tour.
	4:47am KP: Ken just woke up screaming.
	4:50am Meghan: Andy Breckman I think is dreaming louder
	4:50am fred von helsing: Whoa! Corset on the Run! What's the story behind the theft ??
	🦇 4:51am Julie: I don't know! I didn't hear about it till a couple days later when she got it back. Some friend bought it for her, guess whoever had it was selling it.
	4:51am KP: I think i can recite that Andy Breckman page verbatim.
	4:52am b k: missed some of the interview but from what I heard it was the most moving interview I have heard on the station in over twenty years as a listener.thank you Julie.
	4:53am KP: I have to go Julie. Thanks, This was really special. Especially at end there. I didnt expect that. Godd night.
	🦇 4:53am Julie: whoa bk, really??!
	4:54am b k: no doubt
	4:57am Matt from Springfield: Dang! Slept through the interview--ah, but are there more parts to come? Oh well, great episode to catch up on in any case! Morning Julie and everyone! CAN IT!
	🦇 4:59am Julie: Nope, Matt, interview's over. So you'll have to hit the archive.
	5:00am fred von helsing: @MvS it's great, check it out asap or swear off wfmu 4eva !
	5:01am Marmalade Kitty: Yes! My wfmu alarm! goodmorning!
	5:01am Matt from Springfield: It appears to have been quite the hit, judging by the comments! EFD, world's biggest Nick Gilder fan! :)
	🦇 5:02am Julie: Yeah we didn't have it in the library!
	5:03am Matt from Springfield: Hey FVH! Morning Kitty!
	5:05am Marmalade Kitty: I was sure that was Marc Bolan.. oh well
	5:06am fred von helsing: I can't find lyrics for Science Fiction Daze :-(
	🦇 5:08am Julie: This is from the album that is so far unreleased by Blackheart Records
	5:09am fred von helsing: Yeah after what she's been thru I 'spect she's got a pretty finely tuned toxic person detector. I'm wondering about her book "Neon Angel", has anyone read it, any age warnings for it as a gift to a niece ?
	🦇 5:10am Julie: You'd have to get the original version, the new one has all the "adult" stuff in it. Both talk about drugs, but she left the sex out of the first one
	🦇 5:11am Julie: It was marketed as a young adult book.
	5:13am fred von helsing: Yeah but who knows what the heck "young adult" means any more :)
	5:13am Matt from Springfield: Cherie Bomb!
	5:14am Guido (Cologne): ... back @work. talking about adult-stuff. Lita Ford's last outing was the only one I really enjoyed. cannot even figure out why. All the BDSM-stuff is not for me (physically grin). Too bad to hear about Lita's family bythe way.
	5:14am fred von helsing: she's right, this song so needed a visual to freak out all the parents :-D
	5:15am Guido (Cologne): "I wanna be where the boys are!" live would be great now.
	5:15am Marmalade Kitty: I remember this
	5:19am fred von helsing: Hmm, maybe it's time to do a mashup of this Iggy version and the Emile Simone version. It might make brains explode.
	5:22am Andrew: Hi everyone ^_^ good song to come in on. Iggy sounds so young there. I just woke up O_O
	🦇 5:22am Julie: morning Andrew!
	5:24am Matt from Springfield: You clued me in to the Bananarama cover of this! :)
	5:25am fred von helsing: banarama cover of what ? no feelings ? holy crap ?
	🦇 5:25am Julie: Oh yeah that's a great cover!
	🦇 5:25am Julie: yes FVH!
	5:27am Matt from Springfield: Holy crap, indeed, FVH! :) A tribute probably to Steve Jones and Paul Cook, who worked with the band in their early years.
	5:27am fred von helsing: anyone got the lyrics for CC's Science Fiction Daze ?
	5:28am Marmalade Kitty: there's aJohnny Marr chord in there somewhere.. in "rip off
	5:28am fred von helsing: Bananarama highly underrated
	5:28am Matt from Springfield: Wooooo!
	5:28am flashback: hi julie,hi everyone.
	5:29am Matt from Springfield: Hi flashback. @FVH: Like many things heard on FMU, you may have to decipher and post lyrics yourself if you want to see them...
	5:29am Matt from Springfield: Indecision me molesta!
	🦇 5:30am Julie: FVH you'll enjoy the next one
	🦇 5:30am Julie: morning flashback
	5:30am fred von helsing: Wombat rock! I hear Wombat rock! FWIW someone posted to Siouxsie & the Banshees FB an NME (or MM?) survey from 1990-something and the Clash just edged out S&B to win several categories. Wankers !
	5:30am fred von helsing: OK, me ready. White-knuckle grip on the desk.
	5:31am Guido (Cologne): Babes ... YEAAAHHH !
	5:32am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: Ha, you should like this! :) Hey, as long as the two dominant groups were both attendees of the Ramones' famous July 4th '76 concert in London, that's cool!
	5:32am fred von helsing: Babes FUCK yeahhhhh !
	5:32am Andrew: hi flashback ^_^ love T.Rex been great so far ^_^ looking up that Bananarama cover of No Feelings now... Unexpected covers. I saw Iron Maiden did a cover of Women In Uniform
	5:35am fred von helsing: Wow this song is different even for them. Loved it.
	5:35am Matt from Springfield: Hey Andrew!
	5:36am fred von helsing: heh heh yeah maybe got something queued up from Rock n Roll High Skule ? (speaking of PJ Soles...)
	🦇 5:36am Julie: shhhh
	5:37am Andrew: loved the drums & bass in that Babes in Toyland song ^_^ Hi Matt ^_^
	5:38am Matt from Springfield: Dollyrots, 'nother great cover!
	5:38am fred von helsing: hee hee haven't heard this song in ages and soyt'nly not this version
	5:39am fred von helsing: another great toon with a vibe like this: SOMEONE STOLE MY SKATEBOARD !
	🦇 5:39am Julie: I think I'm gonna be a bit short, do you want more Runaways?
	5:40am fred von helsing: something thematic ? oh jeez how about The Sweet, Fox on the Run
	5:41am Andrew: another cool cover ^_^ yes, that would be good as I missed it before O_O stupid sleep
	5:43am fred von helsing: oh noes !!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:43am Matt from Springfield: More Runaways is great!!
	5:44am Guido (Cologne): Still dying for "I wanna be where the boys are" . Punk Rock classic.
	🦇 5:44am Julie: she talked about this movie, I had to :)
	5:44am Andrew: ramones ^_^ (just got my Ramones CD back from my friend) loving this show tonight Julie ^_^
	🦇 5:44am Julie: there is something beach boys like about this
	5:45am Guido (Cologne): Someone said Ramones were actually bubblegum music with guts.
	5:45am fred von helsing: oh noes oh NOES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:45am Meghan: yeah! nothing like some Fox on the Run!
	5:46am Matt from Springfield: Good suggestion FVH!
	5:46am fred von helsing: saw the sweet a few years ago in tallinn. the guy still has the voice !
	5:49am fred von helsing: too bad cherie's not on the chatboard eh
	5:49am Matt from Springfield: Oh wow, "Here Comes The Sun"!
	5:50am fred von helsing: I see a comedy skit... villagers panicking but then a leg-kick chorus number... Here Come the Huns
	5:50am Meghan: yeah I think it's probably for the best she isn't....
	5:52am Guido (Cologne): Yeaaahhh! You made my day!!
	5:52am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: How the "Holy Grail" has warped all of our senses of humor! ;) Here ya go, Guido!
	5:52am Andrew: another Beatles cover I love more than the original, also by the Runaways - 8 Days A Week http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apqnTyF8kIE
	5:52am fred von helsing: @MvS that's the truth !
	🦇 5:53am Julie: they also do strawberry fields
	5:56am fred von helsing: a pinch of rock and a dose of roll :-D
	5:56am Guido (Cologne): ... and Eight Days a Week. Makes me woneder about New-Wave-beatles Covers. Siouxie doing helter Skelter etc.
	5:57am fred von helsing: hmmm cool :) this would be a great track for the opener of another episode Courney Love's Sunday C#ntday
	5:57am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: I second that - I clicky starred this track!
	5:58am Matt from Springfield: Ooooh! Julie, where'd you get that pink and gold cup and saucer?
	5:58am Andrew: now I have to listen to the start of this show ^_^ (after Meghan's of course) thanks Julie! Loved it! ^_^

	8:46am van: Really enjoyed that short set of McLean, Bowie, Quatro, Gilder :)
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Incredible interview - Cherie was so delightful and open, and wise! Whatever lessons life's thrown at her, she's learned from them and conquered them. This kind of deeply personal perspective from a history-maker is truly a treasure. Thanks so much for coming to WFMU, Cherie! And thanks Julie for sharing this!
	6:18pm Holly in NC: Thank you, Julie. I hope you can speak with Cherie again - I'd love to hear more stories from her post-'84/Neon Angel life. Superb interview. And yeah, Annie, damn. Gets me every time.

	4:00am Guido (Cologne): Is there a chance that the live footages from Runaways will be available in a decent (Sound/picture) quality in some future? You definetly have to see them live to get the real picture. YouTube helps, but som good sound woul be grat. (By the way Vicki Blue's treatments altered soundwork surprisingly well, but of course only for the documnetary.)
	🦇 4:01am Julie: I think Live in Japan came out on video out some point, not sure it's on DVD though
	4:03am Guido (Cologne): This would be great to have!
	4:03am KP: YA-Runaway.
	4:04am KP: I agree with Cherie.
	4:10am fred von helsing: "and then came Warpaint" uh OK so it's them that's the first to throw off the chains of music industry sexism
	4:10am Mary Wing: Do we get to see her carvings?
	🦇 4:10am Julie: I don't know who Warpaint is
	4:11am fred von helsing: Warpaint's been my fave for a while :-D I describe it to people as stoner psychedelic shoegaze
	4:12am KP: If Guido is not still here, i thought he just meant heavy makeup/
	4:12am fred von helsing: she's right, the net is entrenching sniping and cynicism as social norms and it is very very fucked up
	4:13am KP: Well im wrong. Thanks, FVH.
	4:14am fred von helsing: this gal's a punk zen master :)
	🦇 4:14am Julie: ah FVH I must investigate
	4:14am KP: Ha!
	4:15am Guido (Cologne): No, the documentary actually ended with an interview with Warpaint and about how great group-interaction is. (by the way, I'm a fan of Warpaint myself and I was lucky enaufgh to have them on the only show in Germany i a venue just round the corner from my home.)
	4:15am KP: The Ha was for FVH.
	4:16am fred von helsing: Warpaint - my friends tend to dismiss it as too melancholic but part of what I love about them is in their songs (typically 6~8 minutes) they resolve the melancholy into something positive and filled with the electricity of life. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it :)
	🦇 4:18am Julie: I love that she likes the corny songs too, one super-corny one is coming up, and Ken will hate me for it ;)
	4:18am fred von helsing: I worked a backstage gig and got a chance to chat very briefly with each of them and get a CD autographed. A thrill. I love their music so much.
	4:19am KP: Oh, goodie.
	4:20am Guido (Cologne): Warpaint have a certain sense of funkyness. (And Jenny Lindberg looked like a disco-diva on stage in Cologne.) Yes and they jam their songs out on their shows, which is a great thing.
	4:23am KP: Hey her carvings, nice work.
	4:23am fred von helsing: that's true there's a funkiness but they sort of keep it wrapped in angst which is also oddly cool :)
	🦇 4:24am Julie: Her site is www.chainsawchick.com
	4:25am Guido (Cologne): I have an abivaleentrelation to autographs. I don't like the beautiful artworks to be spoiled. Angst wrappened in funkiness ... some good old tradition ... A Certain Ratio ... Pop Group ... etc.
	4:25am KP: Cool.
	🦇 4:25am Julie: I purposely picked the record with lots of white space. I rarely ask for them.
	4:26am KP: That song was good.
	4:26am Guido (Cologne): Yeeeaaaah ... watch the sculptures! Baselitz F** O and hide, hehehe
	4:27am KP: THat's about the best autograph ive ever seen, for overall look and personal message.
	🦇 4:27am Julie: She signs and poses for pictures after all her shows too.
	🦇 4:28am Julie: I really enjoyed her book. I read the young adult version before I really got into her music.
	4:29am KP: I saw that she posed with with a red-faced Joe Mc.
	4:31am Guido (Cologne): Yesterday I asked Lee Ranaldo NOT to include my my name on the autograph. And ripped the shrink wrap at the place where I wanted it. Now it looks perfect. Fits the design.
	🦇 4:31am Julie: There would've been no PJ Soles!
	4:33am KP: I missed that.
	4:33am Meghan: Morning! Yay I didn't miss this!
	🦇 4:33am Julie: We didn't have time for all her song picks while she was there, so there will be a bunch of those after the interview wraps up
	🦇 4:34am Julie: Morning Meghan, you missed a lot!
	4:34am KP: It's been on since very beginning of show!
	4:34am Meghan: Damn! Archives!
	🦇 4:35am Julie: yeah I started at just after 3am
	4:35am fred von helsing: damn this gal has her head screwed on right
	🦇 4:36am Julie: She went through a lot to get there, and I think the counseling she did helped.
	4:37am Guido (Cologne): @Julie ... typing and interviewing at once ... incredible. ... off to work ... back soon ...
	4:38am KP: There is a bit of that speak, those keywords, but not in off-putting way. It's fascinating.
	🦇 4:38am Julie: bye bye Guido!
	4:39am KP: Finally, Fowley!
	4:40am fred von helsing: hee hee whoops hearing her talk is like hanging out in my neighborhood punk rock bar. so many people with weird junk in their heads squeezing out their souls.
	🦇 4:40am Julie: Im so excited about the new album! Hopefully I can get her back, if only via phone
	4:40am KP: Had no idea she was in touch with him. I thought it was war!
	4:41am fred von helsing: so she's totally clean ? no drink at all ? does she ride the nicotine horse ? a caffeine junkie ? color me curious.
	4:41am KP: This is great.
	🦇 4:41am Julie: While Cherie and I were recording, Kim Fowley was calling in to Chris T on Aerial View
	🦇 4:42am Julie: She smokes electronic cigarettes
	4:42am KP: Somebody wrote that on Facebook. Very funny.
	4:42am Eyepatch Fox: Yay for e-cigs!
	🦇 4:43am Julie: She was sitting there and I was like, whoa there's smoke coming from your hand.
	4:44am fred von helsing: @e-fox I second that. I know people that aren't sure whether it's socially acceptable or not but, well, it's an admission that you're hooked and it's a lot less harmful t'ya.
	🦇 4:44am Julie: The famous corset, by the way, had been stolen and was just returned to her on this tour.
	4:47am KP: Ken just woke up screaming.
	4:50am Meghan: Andy Breckman I think is dreaming louder
	4:50am fred von helsing: Whoa! Corset on the Run! What's the story behind the theft ??
	🦇 4:51am Julie: I don't know! I didn't hear about it till a couple days later when she got it back. Some friend bought it for her, guess whoever had it was selling it.
	4:51am KP: I think i can recite that Andy Breckman page verbatim.
	4:52am b k: missed some of the interview but from what I heard it was the most moving interview I have heard on the station in over twenty years as a listener.thank you Julie.
	4:53am KP: I have to go Julie. Thanks, This was really special. Especially at end there. I didnt expect that. Godd night.
	🦇 4:53am Julie: whoa bk, really??!
	4:54am b k: no doubt
	4:57am Matt from Springfield: Dang! Slept through the interview--ah, but are there more parts to come? Oh well, great episode to catch up on in any case! Morning Julie and everyone! CAN IT!
	🦇 4:59am Julie: Nope, Matt, interview's over. So you'll have to hit the archive.
	5:00am fred von helsing: @MvS it's great, check it out asap or swear off wfmu 4eva !
	5:01am Marmalade Kitty: Yes! My wfmu alarm! goodmorning!
	5:01am Matt from Springfield: It appears to have been quite the hit, judging by the comments! EFD, world's biggest Nick Gilder fan! :)
	🦇 5:02am Julie: Yeah we didn't have it in the library!
	5:03am Matt from Springfield: Hey FVH! Morning Kitty!
	5:05am Marmalade Kitty: I was sure that was Marc Bolan.. oh well
	5:06am fred von helsing: I can't find lyrics for Science Fiction Daze :-(
	🦇 5:08am Julie: This is from the album that is so far unreleased by Blackheart Records
	5:09am fred von helsing: Yeah after what she's been thru I 'spect she's got a pretty finely tuned toxic person detector. I'm wondering about her book "Neon Angel", has anyone read it, any age warnings for it as a gift to a niece ?
	🦇 5:10am Julie: You'd have to get the original version, the new one has all the "adult" stuff in it. Both talk about drugs, but she left the sex out of the first one
	🦇 5:11am Julie: It was marketed as a young adult book.
	5:13am fred von helsing: Yeah but who knows what the heck "young adult" means any more :)
	5:13am Matt from Springfield: Cherie Bomb!
	5:14am Guido (Cologne): ... back @work. talking about adult-stuff. Lita Ford's last outing was the only one I really enjoyed. cannot even figure out why. All the BDSM-stuff is not for me (physically grin). Too bad to hear about Lita's family bythe way.
	5:14am fred von helsing: she's right, this song so needed a visual to freak out all the parents :-D
	5:15am Guido (Cologne): "I wanna be where the boys are!" live would be great now.
	5:15am Marmalade Kitty: I remember this
	5:19am fred von helsing: Hmm, maybe it's time to do a mashup of this Iggy version and the Emile Simone version. It might make brains explode.
	5:22am Andrew: Hi everyone ^_^ good song to come in on. Iggy sounds so young there. I just woke up O_O
	🦇 5:22am Julie: morning Andrew!
	5:24am Matt from Springfield: You clued me in to the Bananarama cover of this! :)
	5:25am fred von helsing: banarama cover of what ? no feelings ? holy crap ?
	🦇 5:25am Julie: Oh yeah that's a great cover!
	🦇 5:25am Julie: yes FVH!
	5:27am Matt from Springfield: Holy crap, indeed, FVH! :) A tribute probably to Steve Jones and Paul Cook, who worked with the band in their early years.
	5:27am fred von helsing: anyone got the lyrics for CC's Science Fiction Daze ?
	5:28am Marmalade Kitty: there's aJohnny Marr chord in there somewhere.. in "rip off
	5:28am fred von helsing: Bananarama highly underrated
	5:28am Matt from Springfield: Wooooo!
	5:28am flashback: hi julie,hi everyone.
	5:29am Matt from Springfield: Hi flashback. @FVH: Like many things heard on FMU, you may have to decipher and post lyrics yourself if you want to see them...
	5:29am Matt from Springfield: Indecision me molesta!
	🦇 5:30am Julie: FVH you'll enjoy the next one
	🦇 5:30am Julie: morning flashback
	5:30am fred von helsing: Wombat rock! I hear Wombat rock! FWIW someone posted to Siouxsie & the Banshees FB an NME (or MM?) survey from 1990-something and the Clash just edged out S&B to win several categories. Wankers !
	5:30am fred von helsing: OK, me ready. White-knuckle grip on the desk.
	5:31am Guido (Cologne): Babes ... YEAAAHHH !
	5:32am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: Ha, you should like this! :) Hey, as long as the two dominant groups were both attendees of the Ramones' famous July 4th '76 concert in London, that's cool!
	5:32am fred von helsing: Babes FUCK yeahhhhh !
	5:32am Andrew: hi flashback ^_^ love T.Rex been great so far ^_^ looking up that Bananarama cover of No Feelings now... Unexpected covers. I saw Iron Maiden did a cover of Women In Uniform
	5:35am fred von helsing: Wow this song is different even for them. Loved it.
	5:35am Matt from Springfield: Hey Andrew!
	5:36am fred von helsing: heh heh yeah maybe got something queued up from Rock n Roll High Skule ? (speaking of PJ Soles...)
	🦇 5:36am Julie: shhhh
	5:37am Andrew: loved the drums & bass in that Babes in Toyland song ^_^ Hi Matt ^_^
	5:38am Matt from Springfield: Dollyrots, 'nother great cover!
	5:38am fred von helsing: hee hee haven't heard this song in ages and soyt'nly not this version
	5:39am fred von helsing: another great toon with a vibe like this: SOMEONE STOLE MY SKATEBOARD !
	🦇 5:39am Julie: I think I'm gonna be a bit short, do you want more Runaways?
	5:40am fred von helsing: something thematic ? oh jeez how about The Sweet, Fox on the Run
	5:41am Andrew: another cool cover ^_^ yes, that would be good as I missed it before O_O stupid sleep
	5:43am fred von helsing: oh noes !!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:43am Matt from Springfield: More Runaways is great!!
	5:44am Guido (Cologne): Still dying for "I wanna be where the boys are" . Punk Rock classic.
	🦇 5:44am Julie: she talked about this movie, I had to :)
	5:44am Andrew: ramones ^_^ (just got my Ramones CD back from my friend) loving this show tonight Julie ^_^
	🦇 5:44am Julie: there is something beach boys like about this
	5:45am Guido (Cologne): Someone said Ramones were actually bubblegum music with guts.
	5:45am fred von helsing: oh noes oh NOES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	5:45am Meghan: yeah! nothing like some Fox on the Run!
	5:46am Matt from Springfield: Good suggestion FVH!
	5:46am fred von helsing: saw the sweet a few years ago in tallinn. the guy still has the voice !
	5:49am fred von helsing: too bad cherie's not on the chatboard eh
	5:49am Matt from Springfield: Oh wow, "Here Comes The Sun"!
	5:50am fred von helsing: I see a comedy skit... villagers panicking but then a leg-kick chorus number... Here Come the Huns
	5:50am Meghan: yeah I think it's probably for the best she isn't....
	5:52am Guido (Cologne): Yeaaahhh! You made my day!!
	5:52am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: How the "Holy Grail" has warped all of our senses of humor! ;) Here ya go, Guido!
	5:52am Andrew: another Beatles cover I love more than the original, also by the Runaways - 8 Days A Week http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apqnTyF8kIE
	5:52am fred von helsing: @MvS that's the truth !
	🦇 5:53am Julie: they also do strawberry fields
	5:56am fred von helsing: a pinch of rock and a dose of roll :-D
	5:56am Guido (Cologne): ... and Eight Days a Week. Makes me woneder about New-Wave-beatles Covers. Siouxie doing helter Skelter etc.
	5:57am fred von helsing: hmmm cool :) this would be a great track for the opener of another episode Courney Love's Sunday C#ntday
	5:57am Matt from Springfield: @FVH: I second that - I clicky starred this track!
	5:58am Matt from Springfield: Ooooh! Julie, where'd you get that pink and gold cup and saucer?

	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: Incredible interview - Cherie was so delightful and open, and wise! Whatever lessons life's thrown at her, she's learned from them and conquered them. This kind of deeply personal perspective from a history-maker is truly a treasure. Thanks so much for coming to WFMU, Cherie! And thanks Julie for sharing this!
	6:18pm Holly in NC: Thank you, Julie. I hope you can speak with Cherie again - I'd love to hear more stories from her post-'84/Neon Angel life. Superb interview. And yeah, Annie, damn. Gets me every time.
