	3:44pm Greg from Bloomfield: TALL MAN 4 PREZ!!
	3:44pm common: my favorite scene in phantasm is when the finger turns into a giant fly puppet for some reason and it crawls through the kid's hair. He then throws is into the garbage disposal. good stuff.
	🧩 3:44pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I was 11 years old when Phantasm came out. Saw it in the theater several times. It was a mind-blower.
	🧩 3:45pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Theaters back then weren't too concerned about letting sicko kids like me into R rated horror flicks, evidently.
	3:45pm Roberto: i vividly remember the TV commercials for Phantasm. A bed turning into giant hands and some kind of flying orb.
	3:52pm Jonathan Herweg: I love Albert brooks , but he's no Mel brooks.
	3:54pm Scott Williams: @joho: may the schwartz be witchoo
	3:55pm Andrew Waterloo: Yah, I'm having a hard time imaging my 10 year-old wanting to watch a movie like Phantasm... then again she's ad an age where big changes happen.
	🧩 3:57pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Andrew: Phantasm came out same year as Alien. So between those two films, big changes did indeed happen for this kid..
	3:58pm common: same here rev. my brother and i were so obsessed with alien that we built a model of the poster (the egg on the strange grid). it lit up and everything. my dad finally gave in and took us to see it. so great!
	3:58pm Andrew Waterloo: Aliens and Terminator were the first R rated movies that I saw as a kid. I think I was 9 or 10.
	🧩 3:58pm Ken From Hyde Park: I remember the Phantasm special effects guys explaining how they put bits of sponge into the fake blood coming out of the brain-drilling machines. The sponge pieces were supposed to be the brain bits.
	4:00pm Davis: bloody hell robert ashley twisting my melon man
	4:01pm Scott Williams: yeah Alien was the 1st R-rated movie Dad took me too. I was 9, and loved it. My 7-yr old brother on the other hand was scarred for life. 1st "grownup" movie (with naked ppl) Mom took me to was "Kramer vs. Kramer". And I didn't get the message!!!
	4:01pm Bas NL: This Robert Ashley is a hoot! Hi Scott, hi all!
	🧩 4:02pm Ike: STUMP!!!!!!!!
	4:03pm Parq: Scott, the "naked" scene in "Kramer" just may be the funniest nude scene ever. Kudos to JoBeth Williams for being relaxed enough to pull it off.
	4:06pm SeanG: just tuned in to hear the TUBES!
	4:06pm Scott Williams: @SeanG, yeah it's no "Don't Touch Me There", but it hits the spot
	🧩 4:07pm Matt from Springfield: Now I need to check out K v. K, not just for nudity but for funny nudity.. Never heard of the Tubes, this is a good 80s rock sound! (What does EFD think of them? I'm leaning towards very positive sentiment).
	4:08pm SeanG: I had an awkward moment with my parents seeing "Kramer vs. Kramer" too!
	🧩 4:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Tubes are still together and still fronted by Fee Waybill, it appears.
	4:10pm efd: @MattfS, if you've never heard of The Tubes then I think I'm not doing my job!
	4:10pm Dean: I know I'm getting old when an 'FMU listener has never heard of The Tubes! I was thinking this was the album produced by Todd Rundgren, but no. The previous album, Remote Control, was Todd's.
	🧩 4:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: MEAT?!?!?!
	🧩 4:11pm Matt from Springfield: Very positive sentiment indeed! Several shows with Tubes songs listed--thanks Evan! Meathouses!!
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: It's funny, because it's a "switch".
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: HIDE MY SPANK MAGS!!!
	4:13pm Jonathan Herweg: Next show I do I'm going to see how many push ups I can do while in studio A for 3 hours, I'm going to tack the number on the bulletin board there. Hence starting the great Wfmu push up contest .
	4:14pm Jonathan Herweg: Actually not really.
	4:14pm Mike East: ha! turn your radio down joke. Love it
	🧩 4:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Maybe they'll play "White Punks on Dope" on their tour. They're in Newton, NJ, on July 12 - www.thetubes.com...
	4:15pm common: good ol fee waybill. was just watching white punks on dope live footage not too long ago. yea ken!
	4:16pm Greg from Bloomfield: JOJO
	🧩 4:17pm Matt from Springfield: Tubes: "What Do You Want From Life", "Prime Time", "Brighter Day", "Slipped My Disco", lots of songs to check out.
	4:18pm Dean: "Mondo Bondage": parody of a parody! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHCaswyW-Mo
	4:18pm Mike East: @Matt - you must have heard "She's a Beauty"...maybe didn't know it was the tubes.
	4:19pm Parq: Matt, you're making a bunch of us feel old here, but I gotta admit, I envy you the experience of hearing those records for the first time. Find some tracks from their 1977 live album, too, if you can.
	4:20pm Greg from Bloomfield: If I could play rhythm guitar for any band ever: Wedding Present.
	🧩 4:21pm Matt from Springfield: @Mike: I will check that later, who knows I may have. @Parq: That's true, first experiences are always a joy. Thanks for that rec.
	4:21pm Davis: my favourite is my 12" single of dont touch me there c/w white punks on dope anmd what do you want from life--- got it all covered
	4:22pm Scott Williams: Greg, I am liking your comment and dreaming of the chops to keep up with them. Seen Gedge break more than one gtr onstage backinnaday.
	4:22pm Dean: @Davis: That EP is a keeper.
	4:22pm Jeff: Gentleman Joe will be so annoyed - he was totally planning to play "You Can Have A Cell Phone ... But Not Me" sometime really soon. Not that your playing it means he can't. But he might get funny about it.
	4:23pm ironybread: I refule to lob first-timer shame on anyone. I bought my first Cheap Trick album last year.
	4:24pm ironybread: Refule? That would be "refuse"
	4:24pm Davis: oh definitely Dean
	🧩 4:24pm Matt from Springfield: Hey, irony's all right! :)
	4:24pm Mike East: I can remember listening to this song (original Spacemen3) and pausing while I could write down the lyrics so I could cover it...must have been pre internet
	4:27pm Carmichael: Yikes, what a playlist I've missed. Hiya Scott and everybody.
	4:29pm Parq: Yeah, Mike -- remember all the things we couldn't do before the 'Net? Looking up lyrics without a copy of the album (or at all, if the album didn't have a lyric sheet) -- looking up the release date without squinting at the copyright line (or at all if no copy was handy) -- finding out what was on the cover without going to a record store (or at all, if it was obscure or out of print) --
	🧩 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: Ahhh, the "Lovin Feeling" was lost for a few secs, but now it's found!
	4:32pm ?: 3rd policeman, a fantastic book... certainly not a difficult pancake. Read any of his other books? Looking for other book recommendations along similarly warped lines...
	🧩 4:35pm Ike: Amusing live Stump: www.youtube.com... Plus more Stump: www.youtube.com...
	4:39pm Bas NL: Third favy star already.. Great this Alto!
	4:39pm Carmichael: @Matt: Where did you grow up, Chechnya? :) ya never heard the Tubes, didn't know Albert Brooks made comedy records ... If you also say you've never seen The Magnificent Seven, I'm asking you to turn in your Guy Card.
	🧩 4:39pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Had to disappear for a few minutes, delighted that it's still going...
	4:40pm Mike East: @Parq- Yeah, so time consuming...but I think more gratifying.
	4:40pm Andrew Waterloo: I don't think I'll ever forget seeing the Buffalo video late one night.
	4:41pm Parq: Q-Mark, At Swim Two Birds and the Dalkey Archives are considered his other great novels. I would also recommend The Poor Mouth, a terrific send up of the sort of folksy-noble Irish poverty memoirs that have only become more popular since Flann's time. Finally, you might enjoy compilations of his newspapers stuff, written under the name Myles na gCopaleen.
	4:45pm Carmichael: @Parq: I don't know of this author, but the translated version of his name is Miles Copeland. I wonder what his motivation was?
	4:46pm ?: Parq, thanks for the tips!
	4:47pm Stanley: Is it a bicycle you're after?
	🧩 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Whew, my card's safe for now--The Magnificent Seven and Seven Samurai before it. But yeah, you might mention something from before my time, and be surprised that I never heard of it! :)
	4:55pm Parq: Carm, The Poor Mouth is a quick read and will give you a great introduction.
	5:01pm Stanley: @Parq - The Third Policeman is my favourite, where man and bicycle become one, followed by At Swim Two Birds, where Flann imprisons his characters in the bathroom, if I remember correctly.
	5:01pm ironybread: The FCC should give gold stars to DJs who give the legal ID while the clock still says it's the top of the hour. I could have used some gold stars in my college radio career.
	🧩 5:04pm Matt from Springfield: Is this a People Like Us project? :)
	5:05pm Carmichael: @Matt, just giving you a hard time. I assume everyone is a codger like me, but I think I'm the oldest person on most boards, with the exception of the Old Codger himself. I saw the Tubes probably 15 times in my youth. They played all over Northern California on big bills. I saw them in a roller rink once.
	5:07pm Serpico: heayy youuuu
	5:09pm Carmichael: I think Alan Parsons' radar just went up ......
	🧩 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Wow, they were practically your neighborhood band at that rate.
	🧩 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: Sir Patrick Cowley! His dance music starts, and does not stop!
	5:19pm Carmichael: I have some Star Wars disco mix picture sleeve 45 that I've never actually played. I imagine it sounds like this.
	5:20pm efd: Carmichael, I might have to challenge you for codgeriness!
	5:25pm Carmichael: Its a codger slapdown! Or maybe fall down ....
	5:26pm Carmichael: And Zombie Zombie gets the clicky star of greatness!
	🧩 5:26pm chris: We may be old, but we don't act it (unless we do)... Codgers Unite!
	5:28pm Sem Chumbo: The Artful Codger.
	5:29pm jayrope: Yeah, thanx for Zombie Zombie!
	🧩 5:30pm Ike: @ironybread, first the FCC needs to give ox-butt stars to all of the pirates in Flatbush (Brooklyn) and Paterson NJ that interfere with WFMU, WKCR, WNYC, etc. Or maybe rotten breadfruit stars.
	5:32pm Carmichael: Wow, I just looked up this Mike Deasy (the guitarist here). What a pedigree this guy has. But he still doesn't qualify as a codger; he's too cool.
	5:33pm green light: amazing solo. halo from Dublin, Ireland.
	5:37pm Sandy in Houston: Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone.
	🧩 5:37pm Matt from Springfield: Happy Cinco, Sandy!
	5:39pm green light: what red names and red hearts stands for?
	5:39pm Sandy in Houston: Thanks. I'm eating pinata candy! & stuffed full of tamales.
	🧩 5:39pm chris: Feliz Cinco de Mayo, Sandy!
	5:40pm Sem Chumbo: @green light: those people contributed money to FMU's fundraiser.
	🧩 5:41pm Matt from Springfield: @green light: When you join the Friendship Society and donate to WFMU! wfmu.org...
	5:42pm green light: @Sem Chumbo @Matt from Springfield Thanks!!
	5:43pm Carmichael: You're doing it right, Sandy! Now go get plowed on tequila.
	5:43pm Sem Chumbo: @Matt: yours was the most complete answer, whippersnapper:)
	5:44pm Sandy in Houston: OK, as soon as I get out of the office!
	5:44pm !.!: gr8 show, mister SCOTT!!!! ;))))
	5:45pm Sem Chumbo: edit: more, not most. Comparatively speaking.
	🧩 5:46pm I.K.E. (Ice King Enterprises): Cinco de Mayo?! I would rename it Amateur Alcoholic Excuse Day #3. (NYE and St. Pat's are #1 and #2.)
	5:46pm northguineahills: Yes, an awesome show indeed!
	5:55pm Mr. Lowry: The problem is that if you donate on-line, the NSA knows you support subversive radio.
	5:56pm Scott Williams: thanks fer sticking in there this afternoon everybody! see you next week.
	5:57pm Carmichael: Thanks for the musical education, Scott!
	5:57pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thank YOU Scott!
	5:58pm steve: super show Scott
	5:58pm Sem Chumbo: @Mr. Lowry: better subversive than submersive.
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Wonderful! Just wonderful! Great show today as always, Scott! Have a good evening everyone!
	5:59pm jayrope: Yes, very nice. Thank you loads.
	🧩 6:00pm Ike: Agreed NGH/Carm/et al., this has been a show of many great glowing audio rupees.
	6:16pm Adrian: Listener from Crystal Palace here (it's in south London) Also a Liverpool fan so a pretty devastating evening over here...
	12:22am meatguy: Nice title! Cracks me up seriously!

	4:01pm Bas NL: This Robert Ashley is a hoot! Hi Scott, hi all!
	🧩 4:02pm Ike: STUMP!!!!!!!!
	4:03pm Parq: Scott, the "naked" scene in "Kramer" just may be the funniest nude scene ever. Kudos to JoBeth Williams for being relaxed enough to pull it off.
	4:06pm SeanG: just tuned in to hear the TUBES!
	4:06pm Scott Williams: @SeanG, yeah it's no "Don't Touch Me There", but it hits the spot
	🧩 4:07pm Matt from Springfield: Now I need to check out K v. K, not just for nudity but for funny nudity.. Never heard of the Tubes, this is a good 80s rock sound! (What does EFD think of them? I'm leaning towards very positive sentiment).
	4:08pm SeanG: I had an awkward moment with my parents seeing "Kramer vs. Kramer" too!
	🧩 4:09pm Ken From Hyde Park: The Tubes are still together and still fronted by Fee Waybill, it appears.
	4:10pm efd: @MattfS, if you've never heard of The Tubes then I think I'm not doing my job!
	4:10pm Dean: I know I'm getting old when an 'FMU listener has never heard of The Tubes! I was thinking this was the album produced by Todd Rundgren, but no. The previous album, Remote Control, was Todd's.
	🧩 4:11pm Rev. Turnip Druid: MEAT?!?!?!
	🧩 4:11pm Matt from Springfield: Very positive sentiment indeed! Several shows with Tubes songs listed--thanks Evan! Meathouses!!
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: It's funny, because it's a "switch".
	🧩 4:12pm Matt from Springfield: HIDE MY SPANK MAGS!!!
	4:13pm Jonathan Herweg: Next show I do I'm going to see how many push ups I can do while in studio A for 3 hours, I'm going to tack the number on the bulletin board there. Hence starting the great Wfmu push up contest .
	4:14pm Jonathan Herweg: Actually not really.
	4:14pm Mike East: ha! turn your radio down joke. Love it
	🧩 4:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: Maybe they'll play "White Punks on Dope" on their tour. They're in Newton, NJ, on July 12 - www.thetubes.com...
	4:15pm common: good ol fee waybill. was just watching white punks on dope live footage not too long ago. yea ken!
	4:16pm Greg from Bloomfield: JOJO
	🧩 4:17pm Matt from Springfield: Tubes: "What Do You Want From Life", "Prime Time", "Brighter Day", "Slipped My Disco", lots of songs to check out.
	4:18pm Dean: "Mondo Bondage": parody of a parody! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHCaswyW-Mo
	4:18pm Mike East: @Matt - you must have heard "She's a Beauty"...maybe didn't know it was the tubes.
	4:19pm Parq: Matt, you're making a bunch of us feel old here, but I gotta admit, I envy you the experience of hearing those records for the first time. Find some tracks from their 1977 live album, too, if you can.
	4:20pm Greg from Bloomfield: If I could play rhythm guitar for any band ever: Wedding Present.
	🧩 4:21pm Matt from Springfield: @Mike: I will check that later, who knows I may have. @Parq: That's true, first experiences are always a joy. Thanks for that rec.
	4:21pm Davis: my favourite is my 12" single of dont touch me there c/w white punks on dope anmd what do you want from life--- got it all covered
	4:22pm Scott Williams: Greg, I am liking your comment and dreaming of the chops to keep up with them. Seen Gedge break more than one gtr onstage backinnaday.
	4:22pm Dean: @Davis: That EP is a keeper.
	4:22pm Jeff: Gentleman Joe will be so annoyed - he was totally planning to play "You Can Have A Cell Phone ... But Not Me" sometime really soon. Not that your playing it means he can't. But he might get funny about it.
	4:23pm ironybread: I refule to lob first-timer shame on anyone. I bought my first Cheap Trick album last year.
	4:24pm ironybread: Refule? That would be "refuse"
	4:24pm Davis: oh definitely Dean
	🧩 4:24pm Matt from Springfield: Hey, irony's all right! :)
	4:24pm Mike East: I can remember listening to this song (original Spacemen3) and pausing while I could write down the lyrics so I could cover it...must have been pre internet
	4:27pm Carmichael: Yikes, what a playlist I've missed. Hiya Scott and everybody.
	4:29pm Parq: Yeah, Mike -- remember all the things we couldn't do before the 'Net? Looking up lyrics without a copy of the album (or at all, if the album didn't have a lyric sheet) -- looking up the release date without squinting at the copyright line (or at all if no copy was handy) -- finding out what was on the cover without going to a record store (or at all, if it was obscure or out of print) --
	🧩 4:30pm Matt from Springfield: Ahhh, the "Lovin Feeling" was lost for a few secs, but now it's found!
	4:32pm ?: 3rd policeman, a fantastic book... certainly not a difficult pancake. Read any of his other books? Looking for other book recommendations along similarly warped lines...
	🧩 4:35pm Ike: Amusing live Stump: www.youtube.com... Plus more Stump: www.youtube.com...
	4:39pm Bas NL: Third favy star already.. Great this Alto!
	4:39pm Carmichael: @Matt: Where did you grow up, Chechnya? :) ya never heard the Tubes, didn't know Albert Brooks made comedy records ... If you also say you've never seen The Magnificent Seven, I'm asking you to turn in your Guy Card.
	🧩 4:39pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Had to disappear for a few minutes, delighted that it's still going...
	4:40pm Mike East: @Parq- Yeah, so time consuming...but I think more gratifying.
	4:40pm Andrew Waterloo: I don't think I'll ever forget seeing the Buffalo video late one night.
	4:41pm Parq: Q-Mark, At Swim Two Birds and the Dalkey Archives are considered his other great novels. I would also recommend The Poor Mouth, a terrific send up of the sort of folksy-noble Irish poverty memoirs that have only become more popular since Flann's time. Finally, you might enjoy compilations of his newspapers stuff, written under the name Myles na gCopaleen.
	4:45pm Carmichael: @Parq: I don't know of this author, but the translated version of his name is Miles Copeland. I wonder what his motivation was?
	4:46pm ?: Parq, thanks for the tips!
	4:47pm Stanley: Is it a bicycle you're after?
	🧩 4:53pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Whew, my card's safe for now--The Magnificent Seven and Seven Samurai before it. But yeah, you might mention something from before my time, and be surprised that I never heard of it! :)
	4:55pm Parq: Carm, The Poor Mouth is a quick read and will give you a great introduction.
	5:01pm Stanley: @Parq - The Third Policeman is my favourite, where man and bicycle become one, followed by At Swim Two Birds, where Flann imprisons his characters in the bathroom, if I remember correctly.
	5:01pm ironybread: The FCC should give gold stars to DJs who give the legal ID while the clock still says it's the top of the hour. I could have used some gold stars in my college radio career.
	🧩 5:04pm Matt from Springfield: Is this a People Like Us project? :)
	5:05pm Carmichael: @Matt, just giving you a hard time. I assume everyone is a codger like me, but I think I'm the oldest person on most boards, with the exception of the Old Codger himself. I saw the Tubes probably 15 times in my youth. They played all over Northern California on big bills. I saw them in a roller rink once.
	5:07pm Serpico: heayy youuuu
	5:09pm Carmichael: I think Alan Parsons' radar just went up ......
	🧩 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: @Carm: Wow, they were practically your neighborhood band at that rate.
	🧩 5:11pm Matt from Springfield: Sir Patrick Cowley! His dance music starts, and does not stop!
	5:19pm Carmichael: I have some Star Wars disco mix picture sleeve 45 that I've never actually played. I imagine it sounds like this.
	5:20pm efd: Carmichael, I might have to challenge you for codgeriness!
	5:25pm Carmichael: Its a codger slapdown! Or maybe fall down ....
	5:26pm Carmichael: And Zombie Zombie gets the clicky star of greatness!
	🧩 5:26pm chris: We may be old, but we don't act it (unless we do)... Codgers Unite!
	5:28pm Sem Chumbo: The Artful Codger.
	5:29pm jayrope: Yeah, thanx for Zombie Zombie!
	🧩 5:30pm Ike: @ironybread, first the FCC needs to give ox-butt stars to all of the pirates in Flatbush (Brooklyn) and Paterson NJ that interfere with WFMU, WKCR, WNYC, etc. Or maybe rotten breadfruit stars.
	5:32pm Carmichael: Wow, I just looked up this Mike Deasy (the guitarist here). What a pedigree this guy has. But he still doesn't qualify as a codger; he's too cool.
	5:33pm green light: amazing solo. halo from Dublin, Ireland.
	5:37pm Sandy in Houston: Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone.
	🧩 5:37pm Matt from Springfield: Happy Cinco, Sandy!
	5:39pm green light: what red names and red hearts stands for?
	5:39pm Sandy in Houston: Thanks. I'm eating pinata candy! & stuffed full of tamales.
	🧩 5:39pm chris: Feliz Cinco de Mayo, Sandy!
	5:40pm Sem Chumbo: @green light: those people contributed money to FMU's fundraiser.
	🧩 5:41pm Matt from Springfield: @green light: When you join the Friendship Society and donate to WFMU! wfmu.org...
	5:42pm green light: @Sem Chumbo @Matt from Springfield Thanks!!
	5:43pm Carmichael: You're doing it right, Sandy! Now go get plowed on tequila.
	5:43pm Sem Chumbo: @Matt: yours was the most complete answer, whippersnapper:)
	5:44pm Sandy in Houston: OK, as soon as I get out of the office!
	5:44pm !.!: gr8 show, mister SCOTT!!!! ;))))
	5:45pm Sem Chumbo: edit: more, not most. Comparatively speaking.
	🧩 5:46pm I.K.E. (Ice King Enterprises): Cinco de Mayo?! I would rename it Amateur Alcoholic Excuse Day #3. (NYE and St. Pat's are #1 and #2.)
	5:46pm northguineahills: Yes, an awesome show indeed!
	5:55pm Mr. Lowry: The problem is that if you donate on-line, the NSA knows you support subversive radio.
	5:56pm Scott Williams: thanks fer sticking in there this afternoon everybody! see you next week.
	5:57pm Carmichael: Thanks for the musical education, Scott!
	5:57pm Greg from Bloomfield: Thank YOU Scott!
	5:58pm steve: super show Scott
	5:58pm Sem Chumbo: @Mr. Lowry: better subversive than submersive.
	🧩 5:58pm Matt from Springfield: Wonderful! Just wonderful! Great show today as always, Scott! Have a good evening everyone!
	5:59pm jayrope: Yes, very nice. Thank you loads.
	🧩 6:00pm Ike: Agreed NGH/Carm/et al., this has been a show of many great glowing audio rupees.
	6:16pm Adrian: Listener from Crystal Palace here (it's in south London) Also a Liverpool fan so a pretty devastating evening over here...
	12:22am meatguy: Nice title! Cracks me up seriously!
