	3:03pm DCE: the "louder-izer"?
	3:05pm Sem Chumbo: The Selective Deafness Optimizer?
	3:05pm Cecile: Jimmy Clanton, huh? I thought it was Wayne Newton for a second.
	3:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY GOD, Cecile, I plunked on the headphones in the middle of that Clanton tune & thought it was Bobby Vinton at first -- Don't think I've heard The Master on FMU before.
	3:13pm Cecile: remember Duane's show where they were talking about throwing up, and er, achieving an extremely pleasurable state at the same time through dance music? I think it might sounds a little like this.
	3:13pm Kurt Gottschalk: good afternoon, all! thanks for tuning in.
	3:13pm Cecile: I think Clay has played him.
	3:14pm Mark Helsten: Hi Kurt. We're all here.
	3:14pm still b/p: The Gugli-Me-Up-and-Down-Elmo.
	3:15pm Sem Chumbo: Playing my song.
	3:16pm Rev. Turnip Druid: According to the playlist search, Scott Williams has played more Vinton here than anyone. Which makes SW the president of the sky. Forever.
	3:16pm ?: ? reporting
	3:16pm phat: Just what the doctor ordered
	3:20pm still b/p: Bobby should send champagne to Scott's table, like he (or his son, playing the role of dad) did for Henry and Karen in Goodfellas.
	3:36pm northguineahills: David Rogers, new to me and quite nice.
	3:37pm steve: when do we get the answer to the trivia question??
	3:37pm Mike East: have we gotten any trivia clues yet? Its been a bit noisy at work
	3:38pm Mike East: @steve - I'm curious as hell!
	3:38pm Mike East: I've been listening on the 8's!
	3:41pm steve: are we talking Marconi the old timey radio company?
	3:43pm Mike East: I assumed the inventor himself.
	3:43pm Mike East: the one who plays the mamba.
	3:45pm Mike East: my guess is something long and sciencey sounding.
	3:49pm northguineahills: Sciencey and Italian.
	3:50pm steve: its gotta be something less obvious than potentiometer or rheostat, right
	3:53pm Sem Chumbo: "Fare manopola più forti."
	3:55pm Richard from Venezuela: Greetings Kurt and all the listeners.
	3:56pm northguineahills: ok, is it weird I automatically knew this was black vomit.... (love this album)
	3:58pm Mark Helsten: I am watching a price is right segment on youtube with this on as well. Excellent.
	3:58pm Kurt Gottschalk: i was at the show! i wish they would have released all of the spoken parts. they were hilarious.
	3:59pm northguineahills: Kurt, didn't you write a review of this concert?
	3:59pm Cecile: hahahhaha. I'll bet Braxton never thought he'd be on a track called "black vomit."
	4:02pm Kurt Gottschalk: no, but he requested the double bill!
	4:06pm Cecile: this is a great, great track. Love that album.
	4:06pm Andrew Waterloo: That was a Victoriaville show wasn't it?
	4:08pm Kurt Gottschalk: it was!
	4:08pm Andrew Waterloo: can't to get out there this year.
	4:09pm Kurt Gottschalk: i'll be missing it as well, sad to say.
	4:10pm Cecile: one year I will go, I hope.
	4:11pm Andrew Waterloo: that should be Can't wait to get out there this year.. It will be my first
	4:13pm phat: Just found out Jesus Christ Superstar with Jon Lydon is coming to town this Spring.
	4:18pm Carmichael: Hey, got here on the 8 exactly! Hiya Kurt and obedient followers.
	4:19pm Kurt Gottschalk: didn't even know lydon was doing jcs. amazing.
	4:20pm Cecile: phat, are you kidding?
	4:21pm Caryn: Hello all! Busy with housework, which taught me 3 things: - a knitting needle is good for checking when baked goods are ready (yep, knitting and baking... it's an exciting Friday over here) -I suck at making frosting -even bad frosting is delicious
	4:21pm Cecile: I gotta see that if it's true.
	4:22pm Kurt Gottschalk: report back, cecile. i was wondering.
	4:23pm Caryn: This Marconi thing isn't going to be a trick question, is it? Like Marconi didn't have a volume knob on his radio at all? I say this, because having just sat through a documentary about Marconi yesterday (which included specs and details of patents), I can't remember a single mention of a volume control.
	4:23pm still b/p: A cake of almost knitting needle height, one hopes.
	4:24pm Cecile: shit, it's true. John is King Herod and dude from Incubus is Judas.
	4:25pm Mark Helsten: this looks good w sun ra doing hi ho.. 31.media.tumblr.com...
	4:25pm Kurt Gottschalk: ha, mark!
	4:25pm Kurt Gottschalk: cecile, holy hell!
	4:26pm phat: Its true
	4:26pm Carmichael: Figured it out! The knob was called "The High Ho thingie".
	4:26pm Kurt Gottschalk: re: marconi, i have the answer that mn gif gave me, but i don't get it.
	4:26pm Kurt Gottschalk: carms, ha!
	4:27pm Cecile: this almost seems like an April Fool's joke.
	4:27pm Caryn: Marconi didn't go all technical and just call it a potentiometer, or go all Edison and call it a rheostat, did he?
	4:27pm Mark Helsten: Hi Kurt! I have the second star to the right at home! I think i will listen to it tonight. it's been years.
	4:27pm still b/p: The funiculow-funiculoud.
	4:27pm Parq: This Ra "Heigh Ho" is even better than their take on "Pink Elephants" on the "Stay Awake" set.
	4:27pm phat: I thought that too. But its in the local paper today.
	4:28pm Caryn: @sbp: just cupcakes
	4:28pm Cecile: Yeah, I saw the write up in the Times, dated this AM.
	4:28pm steve: Caryn - already asked (i assume the answer's no). Kurt when do we find out?
	4:31pm still b/p: Then skewer and serve those babies 3 or 4 on a long needle for cupcabobs!
	4:33pm Carmichael: Vernon Reid? Not the Vernon Reid guitar player from Living Color, right? There's another one, right?
	4:34pm Caryn: @sp/b: oh, I need my needles for the actual knitting!
	4:34pm Kurt Gottschalk: from living color, yes. part of a hal willner record.
	4:34pm Andrew Waterloo: Vernon Reid was doing jazz before Living Color
	4:35pm northguineahills: Only took 28 hours to unclog my toilet, but at last success. Thank hades I was cat sitting the next door neighbor's cat, so I had a toilet to use.
	4:35pm Carmichael: Wow, my mind is blown. Not even a cupcake skewer could fix me.
	4:36pm Caryn: This JCS production sounds interesting, but I'm a bit concerned that Herod is now bound to overshadow everyone else, which is surely not the point of the show? It's like all the times Judas is better than anyone else (like in the movie, or when Tim Minchin did it).
	4:36pm Cecile: Carm, he did some really excellent jazz records before Living Color.
	4:37pm Carmichael: It gives Lydon ample opportunity to run around screaming, "Jesus Christ!!"
	4:37pm steve: oof, that's rough ngh. as someone who lives in a really old building its one of my worst fears.
	4:38pm Carmichael: Wow, thanks for the info. That must have been back in my young and dumb phase.
	4:38pm Caryn: Isn't the Herod number all sort of 20s charleston-y? I somehow have a hard time imagining John Lydon doing that song.
	4:39pm Andrew Waterloo: I wonder how many Sex Pistols fans cited Jesus Christ Superstar as part of the bullshit that sex Pistols were the solution to.
	4:40pm Carmichael: @Caryn: I think that's the Pontius Pilate song, with all the flappers and jazz musicians. "So you are the Christ, Mr. Great Jesus Christ ..."?
	4:41pm Kurt Gottschalk: i'm not goin' till johnny plays jesus
	4:42pm Caryn: @Carm: oh yeah, you may be right. Then what the heck does Herod sing? @kurt: I'd hold out for Johnny as Judas. He's the cool one with the best songs.
	4:42pm Cecile: Carm, if it's any consolation, his jazz records were on tiny labels that came out just before the NMDS folded.
	4:43pm common: yay residents!
	4:43pm emmagineering: aw man, that anthony braxton wolf eyes thing was BRUTAL. thanks DJKG!
	4:43pm Kurt Gottschalk: caryn, good point, but i think his acting would be better as christ.
	4:43pm Andrew Waterloo: they should get Marilyn Manson to play Jesus
	4:44pm Cecile: I just wish they'd reform Scratch Acid and Pegboy and have them do the whole thing. For a few years members of various Minneapolis bands used to stage JCS on Good Friday.
	4:44pm Kurt Gottschalk: haha emma, did that knock you out for an hour before you could post?
	4:44pm Cecile: Eddie Vedder is kind of Jesus-like. In his own mind...
	4:44pm mariano: @Carmichael: no that's Herod's song.
	4:45pm Caryn: Hmm, Marconi... it's not the AVC switch, is it? Nah, that's one of the later ones.
	4:46pm Carmichael: THanks, Mariano. It's been a long time, but it was mandatory viewing for us Irish Catholics. Played the album till it turned into vinyl spaghetti.
	4:46pm mariano: Pilate had three songs: Pilate's Dream (great guitar work), the fist time they bring Jesus to him (Who is this broken man...), then the trial, when he tries to help Jesus.
	4:47pm emmagineering: at work emma is at working
	4:47pm steve: Caryn - what's the Marconi doc called? id like to see that.
	4:47pm Carmichael: You could get Geldof to play JC. No, he thinks he's better suited as God. Maybe Bono intead ...
	4:47pm dale: i have these last to rekkids from the day. does that make me old? now i wanna hear wendy and lisa
	4:47pm Caryn: In Sweden, Jesus was played by the lead singer of glam rockers The Ark. He was actually really good. (I somehow suspect someone would've complained in the US if a bisexual was cast as Jesus...) @mariano: hey, so I was right the first time! Yay!
	4:48pm mariano: @Carmichael: same here. As a kid in the early 70s, JCSS was playing in the house day in and day out. Probably why it's imprinted on my mind!
	4:48pm Cecile: hahaha, they should all play Pilate.
	4:48pm still b/p: Sister Mary Rupert (Grade 7) did not approve of our Lord being referred to as "JC" in the Hey-sanna Hosanna song.
	4:49pm Caryn: @steve: it was an episode of a 4-part British documentary series about technological developments. Have no idea what the English-language name is, though (they replace the titles with Finnish ones).
	4:50pm dale: do you folks think there will be some right wing christian zealots picketing jcss?
	4:50pm Carmichael: 'Oos this Brummie Boy, eh?
	4:52pm common: @dale: perhaps my mom and brother.
	4:52pm Cecile: I think they should just have Ted Neely do it. He's been doing it here since '70.
	4:52pm common: my mom picketed outside of our local theater when The Last Temtation of Christ came out. Hoof.
	4:52pm Caryn: @dale: there's bound to be a couple of loons any time Jesus is even mentioned, right? But I doubt there'll be big pickets, unless there's some controversial staging, or Lydon does something crazy. Or unless they cast someone controversial as Jesus.
	4:53pm common: Hey everyone...Beeeeeeeeeeersies!!!
	4:53pm mariano: Here's a bit of JCSS trivia: on the original album, Herod is sung by Mike D'Abo, who was the singer for Manfred Mann's Earth Band, saing Mighty Quinn, etc. Also, in the album and movie, Pilate was played by Barry Dennen, who had a small part in The Shining, as Ullman's assistant, and Trading Places, the butler on the beach at the end of the movie.
	4:53pm Caryn: My parents walked through Christian picket lines to go watch "Life of Brian".
	4:56pm Carmichael: The UNDERTONES, Baby!!
	4:56pm Cecile: have Feargal be Jesus.
	4:57pm Kurt Gottschalk: YESSSSSSSSSS FEARGAL JESUSSSSSSS!!!
	4:58pm steve: thanks Caryn. googled and found the BBC doc on Youtube. looks like my kind of late night put-me-to-sleep viewing (i usually read electronics articles before bed, related vids are good too).
	4:58pm Carmichael: Feargal would really be flippin' the tables over in the bazaar!
	4:58pm dale: farfel jesus? a ventriloquist interpretation of the life of christ!!
	5:03pm Cecile: Get Terry Hall in there as someone, he still has the pipes.
	5:03pm still b/p: Do Annabella Lwin of Bow Wow Wow and Claudia Brücken of Propaganda and Act sound quite similar sometimes?
	5:07pm northguineahills: That was a nice Tetreault!
	5:08pm Caryn: @steve: here's hoping it's the right one! Oh heck, even if it isn't, it'll probably be interesting!
	5:09pm steve: i love boring technincal stuff
	5:11pm Caryn: @steve: same here. Just volunteered to help out at an ITS conference. Looking forward to endless sessions and lectures about transport technology.
	5:15pm steve: nice. high five.
	5:16pm Mark Helsten: Sweet Jesus, great choice! Jackson 5 covering Funkadelic!
	5:17pm Cecile: damn, I FORGOT THIS IS WHERE THE FIRST PLACE I HEARD THIS SONG
	5:18pm northguineahills: No shit, learn something new every day on WFMU.
	5:18pm Cecile: Except for certain parts of Michael's career, the J5 were better together than apart.
	5:19pm Caryn: I've had to favourite the whole show. Couldn't be helped.
	5:20pm Mike East: aw man! my favorite santana song! what a gorgeous version!
	5:20pm Cecile: Santana did this as well. It's doug's bed music.
	5:20pm northguineahills: Caryn, you can help it!
	5:21pm Cecile: as my math teacher once said "can't means don't want to"
	5:21pm mariano: Amazing how a different arrangement and approach can totally alter a song, but it's still recognizable.
	5:23pm Cecile: really amazing.
	5:26pm northguineahills: I can't equate Ken Ham as a genius on par w/ Stephen Hawking. There! tell that to your math teacher, Cecile!
	5:26pm mary: One of your very best shows! wow!
	5:27pm Carmichael: I heard some other Worrell earlier this week on FMU. Just as restrained.
	5:30pm Cecile: he's not a math teacher anymore. Or mayor of my hometown. He resigned amid scandal.
	5:30pm mariano: This Ceramic Dog song reminds me of that Cheech & Chong one from "Up in Smoke," you know, the one where Cheech is in the pink tutu and Chong is at the drums, dressed in a tee shirt with a quaalude image on it.
	5:30pm Caryn: @cecile: in this case, damn straight! On the other hand, I can't fly, but I'd certainly want to be able to do so...
	5:31pm Cecile: every generation gets the Red Hot Chili Peppers it deserves.
	5:32pm Mike East: I wish I had some ludes (shh...I have ludes, I just don't have enough)
	5:33pm Cecile: I loved the version of this song from Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains.
	5:33pm mariano: OMG!!! Is this the version from "Fabulous Stains," with a young Ray Winstone singing?!?
	5:34pm mariano: No, wait, that was the Looters they were called, wasn't it?
	5:34pm Cecile: no, it's the original.
	5:34pm Carmichael: So anyway, the volume knob ... "Oscillatin' Sumbitch"?
	5:35pm Carmichael: Johnny Casino & the Gamblers.
	5:35pm mariano: Thanks @Cecile: I love the movie version too, even the commercial version by the Stains at the end!
	5:37pm Cecile: has that ever come out on DVD? I remember seeing it only once at 1:00 a.m. on USA Up All Night in the late 80s.
	5:37pm Cecile: Yes!!!! it has!!!!
	5:40pm Carmichael: Boogie on Bosnia!
	5:41pm mariano: @Cecile: that's so funny, that's just how I saw it! Up All Night and Night Flight were a lifeline to the outside world in those pre-web days. First time I saw Rude Boy, Another State of Mind, footage of NY Dolls, great great show.
	5:41pm still b/p: I saw bits of The Fabulous Stains re and rerun on Up All Night. I remember Fee Waybill in it describing something as, "Nectar, man, nectar..."
	5:42pm Cecile: well, Rhino put it out on DVD about 5 yrs ago, it looks like. Yeah, I'm up on stuff. :/
	5:43pm Mike East: i rented Ladies and Gentlemen... last year. I had never seen it before.
	5:43pm Cecile: I remember it being a mess, but really, really entertaining.
	5:43pm Mike East: loved it
	5:44pm Cecile: I remember Rolling Stone publishing all kinds of Random Notes about it, and then...nothing.
	5:45pm Cecile: JUDY!
	5:45pm Caryn: @mariano: that Ray Winstone thing makes me think of how many British stars started out in music. Seriously, Joe Belock could do one of his "celebrities at their best" just about Brits. Ricky Gervais, Craig Ferguson, Peter Capaldi, Vic Reeves,...
	5:45pm mariano: I know you can get it from Netflix. Apparently Laura Dern ran away from home to be in the movie. It was definitely a shoestring budget, but it's such a cool snapshot of early 80s small-town America.
	5:46pm still b/p: Did Judy just sing "by Gumm?"
	5:46pm Cecile: Goldie did quite a bit of acting. Wilko Johnson.
	5:46pm mariano: @Caryn: Ricky Gervais started out in music? Had no idea! Gotta do some Googling!
	5:47pm Cecile: I just ordered a cheap copy of The Stains cause I gotta have it.
	5:47pm Cecile: perfect seg
	5:48pm Carmichael: If crazy Bruce Dern was my dad, I'd run away from home too.
	5:48pm still b/p: Maybe you can make some choice Stains gifs for Ken when you get it.
	5:48pm Caryn: @Cecile: true, but he's best known for the music. I'm thinking more about stars known for non-music stuff. Like Brian Cox. @mariano: prepare to laugh at his haircut.
	5:50pm Marshall Stacks: Thanks for the dBs, Kurt! Nice segue from Frances Gumm.
	5:50pm Cecile: There are tons of people over here who have no idea what Dr. Feelgood it. It's quite interesting.
	5:52pm Parq: Glad I made it back for this zippy final set. Take it, Pet.
	5:54pm mariano: @Caryn: I thought you meant the older Brian Cox, the actor! And wow, can't believe that's Gervais, you were right about the hair! www.annehirsch.co.za...
	5:57pm northguineahills: Dinner time, Thanks Kurt! Have a great weekend everyone!
	5:57pm Cecile: you too ngh!
	5:57pm steve: Marconi Marconi Marconi
	5:58pm Carmichael: Ya, what's the answer?!?
	5:58pm mariano: Thanks Kurt, bye all!
	5:59pm Dan from Augusta: Great show!
	6:00pm Mark Helsten: Thanks!
	6:00pm Caryn: @mariano: yep, and the clothes aren't taking away from the 80-ness of it all either! He also was the manager for Suede when they were starting out. Man...
	6:00pm Dan from Augusta: Great show!

	3:12pm Rev. Turnip Druid: HOLY GOD, Cecile, I plunked on the headphones in the middle of that Clanton tune & thought it was Bobby Vinton at first -- Don't think I've heard The Master on FMU before.
	3:13pm Cecile: remember Duane's show where they were talking about throwing up, and er, achieving an extremely pleasurable state at the same time through dance music? I think it might sounds a little like this.
	3:13pm Kurt Gottschalk: good afternoon, all! thanks for tuning in.
	3:13pm Cecile: I think Clay has played him.
	3:14pm Mark Helsten: Hi Kurt. We're all here.
	3:14pm still b/p: The Gugli-Me-Up-and-Down-Elmo.
	3:15pm Sem Chumbo: Playing my song.
	3:16pm Rev. Turnip Druid: According to the playlist search, Scott Williams has played more Vinton here than anyone. Which makes SW the president of the sky. Forever.
	3:16pm ?: ? reporting
	3:16pm phat: Just what the doctor ordered
	3:20pm still b/p: Bobby should send champagne to Scott's table, like he (or his son, playing the role of dad) did for Henry and Karen in Goodfellas.
	3:36pm northguineahills: David Rogers, new to me and quite nice.
	3:37pm steve: when do we get the answer to the trivia question??
	3:37pm Mike East: have we gotten any trivia clues yet? Its been a bit noisy at work
	3:38pm Mike East: @steve - I'm curious as hell!
	3:38pm Mike East: I've been listening on the 8's!
	3:41pm steve: are we talking Marconi the old timey radio company?
	3:43pm Mike East: I assumed the inventor himself.
	3:43pm Mike East: the one who plays the mamba.
	3:45pm Mike East: my guess is something long and sciencey sounding.
	3:49pm northguineahills: Sciencey and Italian.
	3:50pm steve: its gotta be something less obvious than potentiometer or rheostat, right
	3:53pm Sem Chumbo: "Fare manopola più forti."
	3:55pm Richard from Venezuela: Greetings Kurt and all the listeners.
	3:56pm northguineahills: ok, is it weird I automatically knew this was black vomit.... (love this album)
	3:58pm Mark Helsten: I am watching a price is right segment on youtube with this on as well. Excellent.
	3:58pm Kurt Gottschalk: i was at the show! i wish they would have released all of the spoken parts. they were hilarious.
	3:59pm northguineahills: Kurt, didn't you write a review of this concert?
	3:59pm Cecile: hahahhaha. I'll bet Braxton never thought he'd be on a track called "black vomit."
	4:02pm Kurt Gottschalk: no, but he requested the double bill!
	4:06pm Cecile: this is a great, great track. Love that album.
	4:06pm Andrew Waterloo: That was a Victoriaville show wasn't it?
	4:08pm Kurt Gottschalk: it was!
	4:08pm Andrew Waterloo: can't to get out there this year.
	4:09pm Kurt Gottschalk: i'll be missing it as well, sad to say.
	4:10pm Cecile: one year I will go, I hope.
	4:11pm Andrew Waterloo: that should be Can't wait to get out there this year.. It will be my first
	4:13pm phat: Just found out Jesus Christ Superstar with Jon Lydon is coming to town this Spring.
	4:18pm Carmichael: Hey, got here on the 8 exactly! Hiya Kurt and obedient followers.
	4:19pm Kurt Gottschalk: didn't even know lydon was doing jcs. amazing.
	4:20pm Cecile: phat, are you kidding?
	4:21pm Caryn: Hello all! Busy with housework, which taught me 3 things: - a knitting needle is good for checking when baked goods are ready (yep, knitting and baking... it's an exciting Friday over here) -I suck at making frosting -even bad frosting is delicious
	4:21pm Cecile: I gotta see that if it's true.
	4:22pm Kurt Gottschalk: report back, cecile. i was wondering.
	4:23pm Caryn: This Marconi thing isn't going to be a trick question, is it? Like Marconi didn't have a volume knob on his radio at all? I say this, because having just sat through a documentary about Marconi yesterday (which included specs and details of patents), I can't remember a single mention of a volume control.
	4:23pm still b/p: A cake of almost knitting needle height, one hopes.
	4:24pm Cecile: shit, it's true. John is King Herod and dude from Incubus is Judas.
	4:25pm Mark Helsten: this looks good w sun ra doing hi ho.. 31.media.tumblr.com...
	4:25pm Kurt Gottschalk: ha, mark!
	4:25pm Kurt Gottschalk: cecile, holy hell!
	4:26pm phat: Its true
	4:26pm Carmichael: Figured it out! The knob was called "The High Ho thingie".
	4:26pm Kurt Gottschalk: re: marconi, i have the answer that mn gif gave me, but i don't get it.
	4:26pm Kurt Gottschalk: carms, ha!
	4:27pm Cecile: this almost seems like an April Fool's joke.
	4:27pm Caryn: Marconi didn't go all technical and just call it a potentiometer, or go all Edison and call it a rheostat, did he?
	4:27pm Mark Helsten: Hi Kurt! I have the second star to the right at home! I think i will listen to it tonight. it's been years.
	4:27pm still b/p: The funiculow-funiculoud.
	4:27pm Parq: This Ra "Heigh Ho" is even better than their take on "Pink Elephants" on the "Stay Awake" set.
	4:27pm phat: I thought that too. But its in the local paper today.
	4:28pm Caryn: @sbp: just cupcakes
	4:28pm Cecile: Yeah, I saw the write up in the Times, dated this AM.
	4:28pm steve: Caryn - already asked (i assume the answer's no). Kurt when do we find out?
	4:31pm still b/p: Then skewer and serve those babies 3 or 4 on a long needle for cupcabobs!
	4:33pm Carmichael: Vernon Reid? Not the Vernon Reid guitar player from Living Color, right? There's another one, right?
	4:34pm Caryn: @sp/b: oh, I need my needles for the actual knitting!
	4:34pm Kurt Gottschalk: from living color, yes. part of a hal willner record.
	4:34pm Andrew Waterloo: Vernon Reid was doing jazz before Living Color
	4:35pm northguineahills: Only took 28 hours to unclog my toilet, but at last success. Thank hades I was cat sitting the next door neighbor's cat, so I had a toilet to use.
	4:35pm Carmichael: Wow, my mind is blown. Not even a cupcake skewer could fix me.
	4:36pm Caryn: This JCS production sounds interesting, but I'm a bit concerned that Herod is now bound to overshadow everyone else, which is surely not the point of the show? It's like all the times Judas is better than anyone else (like in the movie, or when Tim Minchin did it).
	4:36pm Cecile: Carm, he did some really excellent jazz records before Living Color.
	4:37pm Carmichael: It gives Lydon ample opportunity to run around screaming, "Jesus Christ!!"
	4:37pm steve: oof, that's rough ngh. as someone who lives in a really old building its one of my worst fears.
	4:38pm Carmichael: Wow, thanks for the info. That must have been back in my young and dumb phase.
	4:38pm Caryn: Isn't the Herod number all sort of 20s charleston-y? I somehow have a hard time imagining John Lydon doing that song.
	4:39pm Andrew Waterloo: I wonder how many Sex Pistols fans cited Jesus Christ Superstar as part of the bullshit that sex Pistols were the solution to.
	4:40pm Carmichael: @Caryn: I think that's the Pontius Pilate song, with all the flappers and jazz musicians. "So you are the Christ, Mr. Great Jesus Christ ..."?
	4:41pm Kurt Gottschalk: i'm not goin' till johnny plays jesus
	4:42pm Caryn: @Carm: oh yeah, you may be right. Then what the heck does Herod sing? @kurt: I'd hold out for Johnny as Judas. He's the cool one with the best songs.
	4:42pm Cecile: Carm, if it's any consolation, his jazz records were on tiny labels that came out just before the NMDS folded.
	4:43pm common: yay residents!
	4:43pm emmagineering: aw man, that anthony braxton wolf eyes thing was BRUTAL. thanks DJKG!
	4:43pm Kurt Gottschalk: caryn, good point, but i think his acting would be better as christ.
	4:43pm Andrew Waterloo: they should get Marilyn Manson to play Jesus
	4:44pm Cecile: I just wish they'd reform Scratch Acid and Pegboy and have them do the whole thing. For a few years members of various Minneapolis bands used to stage JCS on Good Friday.
	4:44pm Kurt Gottschalk: haha emma, did that knock you out for an hour before you could post?
	4:44pm Cecile: Eddie Vedder is kind of Jesus-like. In his own mind...
	4:44pm mariano: @Carmichael: no that's Herod's song.
	4:45pm Caryn: Hmm, Marconi... it's not the AVC switch, is it? Nah, that's one of the later ones.
	4:46pm Carmichael: THanks, Mariano. It's been a long time, but it was mandatory viewing for us Irish Catholics. Played the album till it turned into vinyl spaghetti.
	4:46pm mariano: Pilate had three songs: Pilate's Dream (great guitar work), the fist time they bring Jesus to him (Who is this broken man...), then the trial, when he tries to help Jesus.
	4:47pm emmagineering: at work emma is at working
	4:47pm steve: Caryn - what's the Marconi doc called? id like to see that.
	4:47pm Carmichael: You could get Geldof to play JC. No, he thinks he's better suited as God. Maybe Bono intead ...
	4:47pm dale: i have these last to rekkids from the day. does that make me old? now i wanna hear wendy and lisa
	4:47pm Caryn: In Sweden, Jesus was played by the lead singer of glam rockers The Ark. He was actually really good. (I somehow suspect someone would've complained in the US if a bisexual was cast as Jesus...) @mariano: hey, so I was right the first time! Yay!
	4:48pm mariano: @Carmichael: same here. As a kid in the early 70s, JCSS was playing in the house day in and day out. Probably why it's imprinted on my mind!
	4:48pm Cecile: hahaha, they should all play Pilate.
	4:48pm still b/p: Sister Mary Rupert (Grade 7) did not approve of our Lord being referred to as "JC" in the Hey-sanna Hosanna song.
	4:49pm Caryn: @steve: it was an episode of a 4-part British documentary series about technological developments. Have no idea what the English-language name is, though (they replace the titles with Finnish ones).
	4:50pm dale: do you folks think there will be some right wing christian zealots picketing jcss?
	4:50pm Carmichael: 'Oos this Brummie Boy, eh?
	4:52pm common: @dale: perhaps my mom and brother.
	4:52pm Cecile: I think they should just have Ted Neely do it. He's been doing it here since '70.
	4:52pm common: my mom picketed outside of our local theater when The Last Temtation of Christ came out. Hoof.
	4:52pm Caryn: @dale: there's bound to be a couple of loons any time Jesus is even mentioned, right? But I doubt there'll be big pickets, unless there's some controversial staging, or Lydon does something crazy. Or unless they cast someone controversial as Jesus.
	4:53pm common: Hey everyone...Beeeeeeeeeeersies!!!
	4:53pm mariano: Here's a bit of JCSS trivia: on the original album, Herod is sung by Mike D'Abo, who was the singer for Manfred Mann's Earth Band, saing Mighty Quinn, etc. Also, in the album and movie, Pilate was played by Barry Dennen, who had a small part in The Shining, as Ullman's assistant, and Trading Places, the butler on the beach at the end of the movie.
	4:53pm Caryn: My parents walked through Christian picket lines to go watch "Life of Brian".
	4:56pm Carmichael: The UNDERTONES, Baby!!
	4:56pm Cecile: have Feargal be Jesus.
	4:57pm Kurt Gottschalk: YESSSSSSSSSS FEARGAL JESUSSSSSSS!!!
	4:58pm steve: thanks Caryn. googled and found the BBC doc on Youtube. looks like my kind of late night put-me-to-sleep viewing (i usually read electronics articles before bed, related vids are good too).
	4:58pm Carmichael: Feargal would really be flippin' the tables over in the bazaar!
	4:58pm dale: farfel jesus? a ventriloquist interpretation of the life of christ!!
	5:03pm Cecile: Get Terry Hall in there as someone, he still has the pipes.
	5:03pm still b/p: Do Annabella Lwin of Bow Wow Wow and Claudia Brücken of Propaganda and Act sound quite similar sometimes?
	5:07pm northguineahills: That was a nice Tetreault!
	5:08pm Caryn: @steve: here's hoping it's the right one! Oh heck, even if it isn't, it'll probably be interesting!
	5:09pm steve: i love boring technincal stuff
	5:11pm Caryn: @steve: same here. Just volunteered to help out at an ITS conference. Looking forward to endless sessions and lectures about transport technology.
	5:15pm steve: nice. high five.
	5:16pm Mark Helsten: Sweet Jesus, great choice! Jackson 5 covering Funkadelic!
	5:17pm Cecile: damn, I FORGOT THIS IS WHERE THE FIRST PLACE I HEARD THIS SONG
	5:18pm northguineahills: No shit, learn something new every day on WFMU.
	5:18pm Cecile: Except for certain parts of Michael's career, the J5 were better together than apart.
	5:19pm Caryn: I've had to favourite the whole show. Couldn't be helped.
	5:20pm Mike East: aw man! my favorite santana song! what a gorgeous version!
	5:20pm Cecile: Santana did this as well. It's doug's bed music.
	5:20pm northguineahills: Caryn, you can help it!
	5:21pm Cecile: as my math teacher once said "can't means don't want to"
	5:21pm mariano: Amazing how a different arrangement and approach can totally alter a song, but it's still recognizable.
	5:23pm Cecile: really amazing.
	5:26pm northguineahills: I can't equate Ken Ham as a genius on par w/ Stephen Hawking. There! tell that to your math teacher, Cecile!
	5:26pm mary: One of your very best shows! wow!
	5:27pm Carmichael: I heard some other Worrell earlier this week on FMU. Just as restrained.
	5:30pm Cecile: he's not a math teacher anymore. Or mayor of my hometown. He resigned amid scandal.
	5:30pm mariano: This Ceramic Dog song reminds me of that Cheech & Chong one from "Up in Smoke," you know, the one where Cheech is in the pink tutu and Chong is at the drums, dressed in a tee shirt with a quaalude image on it.
	5:30pm Caryn: @cecile: in this case, damn straight! On the other hand, I can't fly, but I'd certainly want to be able to do so...
	5:31pm Cecile: every generation gets the Red Hot Chili Peppers it deserves.
	5:32pm Mike East: I wish I had some ludes (shh...I have ludes, I just don't have enough)
	5:33pm Cecile: I loved the version of this song from Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains.
	5:33pm mariano: OMG!!! Is this the version from "Fabulous Stains," with a young Ray Winstone singing?!?
	5:34pm mariano: No, wait, that was the Looters they were called, wasn't it?
	5:34pm Cecile: no, it's the original.
	5:34pm Carmichael: So anyway, the volume knob ... "Oscillatin' Sumbitch"?
	5:35pm Carmichael: Johnny Casino & the Gamblers.
	5:35pm mariano: Thanks @Cecile: I love the movie version too, even the commercial version by the Stains at the end!
	5:37pm Cecile: has that ever come out on DVD? I remember seeing it only once at 1:00 a.m. on USA Up All Night in the late 80s.
	5:37pm Cecile: Yes!!!! it has!!!!
	5:40pm Carmichael: Boogie on Bosnia!
	5:41pm mariano: @Cecile: that's so funny, that's just how I saw it! Up All Night and Night Flight were a lifeline to the outside world in those pre-web days. First time I saw Rude Boy, Another State of Mind, footage of NY Dolls, great great show.
	5:41pm still b/p: I saw bits of The Fabulous Stains re and rerun on Up All Night. I remember Fee Waybill in it describing something as, "Nectar, man, nectar..."
	5:42pm Cecile: well, Rhino put it out on DVD about 5 yrs ago, it looks like. Yeah, I'm up on stuff. :/
	5:43pm Mike East: i rented Ladies and Gentlemen... last year. I had never seen it before.
	5:43pm Cecile: I remember it being a mess, but really, really entertaining.
	5:43pm Mike East: loved it
	5:44pm Cecile: I remember Rolling Stone publishing all kinds of Random Notes about it, and then...nothing.
	5:45pm Cecile: JUDY!
	5:45pm Caryn: @mariano: that Ray Winstone thing makes me think of how many British stars started out in music. Seriously, Joe Belock could do one of his "celebrities at their best" just about Brits. Ricky Gervais, Craig Ferguson, Peter Capaldi, Vic Reeves,...
	5:45pm mariano: I know you can get it from Netflix. Apparently Laura Dern ran away from home to be in the movie. It was definitely a shoestring budget, but it's such a cool snapshot of early 80s small-town America.
	5:46pm still b/p: Did Judy just sing "by Gumm?"
	5:46pm Cecile: Goldie did quite a bit of acting. Wilko Johnson.
	5:46pm mariano: @Caryn: Ricky Gervais started out in music? Had no idea! Gotta do some Googling!
	5:47pm Cecile: I just ordered a cheap copy of The Stains cause I gotta have it.
	5:47pm Cecile: perfect seg
	5:48pm Carmichael: If crazy Bruce Dern was my dad, I'd run away from home too.
	5:48pm still b/p: Maybe you can make some choice Stains gifs for Ken when you get it.
	5:48pm Caryn: @Cecile: true, but he's best known for the music. I'm thinking more about stars known for non-music stuff. Like Brian Cox. @mariano: prepare to laugh at his haircut.
	5:50pm Marshall Stacks: Thanks for the dBs, Kurt! Nice segue from Frances Gumm.
	5:50pm Cecile: There are tons of people over here who have no idea what Dr. Feelgood it. It's quite interesting.
	5:52pm Parq: Glad I made it back for this zippy final set. Take it, Pet.
	5:54pm mariano: @Caryn: I thought you meant the older Brian Cox, the actor! And wow, can't believe that's Gervais, you were right about the hair! www.annehirsch.co.za...
	5:57pm northguineahills: Dinner time, Thanks Kurt! Have a great weekend everyone!
	5:57pm Cecile: you too ngh!
	5:57pm steve: Marconi Marconi Marconi
	5:58pm Carmichael: Ya, what's the answer?!?
	5:58pm mariano: Thanks Kurt, bye all!
	5:59pm Dan from Augusta: Great show!
	6:00pm Mark Helsten: Thanks!
	6:00pm Caryn: @mariano: yep, and the clothes aren't taking away from the 80-ness of it all either! He also was the manager for Suede when they were starting out. Man...
	6:00pm Dan from Augusta: Great show!
