	3:13pm DCE: Pinhas/Ambarchi? automatic clicky.
	3:15pm SpaceCadet: Any new/old Guardian Alien?
	3:16pm Ike: Like.
	3:26pm cement_dawg: JE SUIS FAILURE
	3:28pm danjoseph: Hey Fabio, we have Connie Crothers & Tom Hamilton at the Old Stone House tonight, hope you can join us! - www.musicalecologies.net
	3:28pm northguineahills: There's something about Anne-James Chaton's voice I can't explain other then I like it.....
	3:29pm C.B.: "Space Age couple/why don't you flex your magic muscle/Why don't you just do that!"
	3:42pm steve: mmm lard
	3:43pm Dean: @cement_dawg: Is your avatar a Mark Kostabi line drawing?
	3:44pm ifny: Nous sommes tous Charlie.
	3:45pm cement_dawg: @Dean: don't know. it's Charles Bukowski's gravestone
	3:47pm YETI BOB: Catherine Ribeiro! C'est fantastique!
	3:47pm ifny: @cement_dawg Replete with the bigger fists he could have made good use of in life.
	3:48pm Fabio: Mark Kostabi is a fucking clown!
	3:48pm cement_dawg: @ifny: he had great legs, though
	3:49pm ifny: Yes, he was a real leg man.
	👻 3:49pm Rev. Turnip Druid: www.theguardian.com...
	3:49pm A.P.: I'm the one.
	3:51pm Dean: Probably not Mark's. I knew Mark and his brother when they were suburban punks, late '70s. A friend gave me his first publication, a collection of clever line drawings. They did not presage the weird stuff for which he became infamous.
	3:52pm ifny: @cement_dawg In Nov. I saw 'THERE'S GOING TO BE A GODDAMN RIOT IN HERE" -- reunion of audience members as well. Many toasts were had. riotheatretickets.ca...
	3:54pm ifny: His last performance outside the US.
	3:59pm Cheri Pi: Amazing show thus far Fabs.
	4:00pm Cecile: I was trying to remember the yo-yo in the 80s who had other people paint his canvases. Thanks! Mark Kostabi.
	4:00pm Cheri Pi: good link Paps.
	4:02pm fran uk: thanks for le Sacre
	4:03pm Dean: The very yo-yo, although he was always a nice guy. The practice stems from a long line of yo-yos, of course, and yo-yo ateliers: Rubens, Warhol...
	👻 4:03pm Rev. Turnip Druid: BERROCAL!
	4:04pm Dean: Mark's brother, Paul, was in LA's Youth Gone Mad, who had a minor punk novelty hit in "Oki Dogs."
	4:05pm Cheri Pi: Les Cliques
	4:05pm Veterans of the French Underground: 2012.compilation/great listening.
	4:08pm Claw!: SERGE!
	4:09pm common: good stuff, fabio!
	👻 4:11pm chris: what everyone else said, again, Fabio!
	4:12pm Cecile: This is Serge Gainesbourg and I don't hate this song? Wow, nice.
	4:13pm Cheri Pi: This album may be for you then C$
	👻 4:13pm chris: Sounds like you need to spend some more time with L'Histoire de Melody Nelson, Cecile. :-)
	4:14pm Cecile: I suppose! I'll put it on the (long) list.
	4:14pm DCE: I plan to, I have no idea why i didn't get this years ago...just picked up a disc on amazon for less than $5
	4:14pm A little cheesy comment...: Hi, I'm french, and I wanted to thank you guys from all the over the world for your support and attention ! I must admit I didn't really like much Charlie Hebdo originally for various reasons, but I am shocked and saddened that they died just for writing and drawing their opinions... Anyway, thank you for the good music and support (and btw, that jac berrocal's stuff was quite nice) !
	4:15pm northguineahills: I wish I never looked up the lyrics to Histoire de Melody Nelson, my favorite Serge album.
	4:16pm Billy Jean: Dude, I love your intro music, by far the best on FMU!
	4:16pm βrian: Meilleurs voeux, M. Fromageux.
	👻 4:16pm chris: aujourd'hui, nous sommes tous Français, cheesy
	4:16pm Cecile: Cheesy, we are just as shocked as you are, and we're hoping that you and all of France stay safe. It was truly horrifying learning about that.
	4:17pm Cecile: ngh, yeah, I'm not going to ever look those up.
	👻 4:18pm chris: thanks for the warning, ngh!
	4:21pm Cheri Pi: ce qu'il a dit.
	4:25pm KP: Agree on Inherent Vice. It helps in comprehending the book in retrospect
	4:25pm Chris from DC: I will definitely see that now.
	4:27pm steve: im curious what anyone thought of the book Inherent Vice? i just finished my first Pynchon book and am ready for another one (that's under 600 pages).
	4:28pm Mike East: the PT Anderson interview with Marc Maron is excellent and makes me really eager to see the film...which I probably won't until it comes out on DVD
	4:30pm Cheri Pi: l'étoile à clic
	4:33pm βrian: Touche pas à mon astre !
	4:33pm KP: Steve I tried Gravity's Rainbow but couldn't get through it. I thought Inherit Vice would help but it's nothing like it. It's pretty straightforward.
	4:37pm steve: haha same here KP. i just finished Bleeding Edge, which was excellent, had a lot to keep track of but overall easy to follow. Gravity's Rainbow is on my otherwise pretty thin shelf of books which i couldn't finish!
	4:38pm YETI BOB: i highly recommend this book to anyone who is trying to read Gravity's Rainbow: www.goodreads.com...
	4:38pm northguineahills: Very Fennezsy
	4:38pm YETI BOB: A Gravity's Rainbow Companion: Sources and Contexts for Pynchon's Novel by Steven Weisenburger
	4:39pm YETI BOB: i would not have made it through GR without Weisenburger's help. it's totally worth it though.
	4:39pm Fuzzy: Make it about halfway through Gravity's Rainbow. Managed to get through Infinite Jest, though -- no small feat!
	4:39pm adrian in mpls: I always recommend The Crying of Lot 49 - very short, very engaging narrative. If you have a spare day, you can easily read it all the way through. And then want to re-read it again.
	4:39pm Fuzzy: Made, rather...
	4:40pm common: couldn't get through gr. i wanna sometime. @adrain: same here
	4:41pm YETI BOB: Infinite Jest, Gravity's Rainbow, and "Life: A User's Manual' are 3 of my favorite books. On my "Couldn't get through it" shelf sit Jacques Roubaud, Robert Musil and Mark Danielewski
	4:43pm YETI BOB: (I don't think Danielewski really wanted people to read House of Leaves, though, so I don't feel bad for abandoning it. "Great Fire of London" and "The Man Without Qualities" really demand to be read, though. One of these days...)
	4:45pm Fuzzy: Tried and failed to read Cryptonomicon again recently. The internet has drastically altered my reading habits!
	4:46pm Dean: I couldn't sit through a reading by the author of passages from "House of Leaves."
	4:47pm steve: Thanks Yeti Bob, I may eventually give the companion a go. Can't deal with those unfinished books mocking me...
	4:49pm bmw primadonna: hey,whats the the song of this show,when the host speaks?
	4:50pm bmw primadonna: ...theme song
	4:52pm Fabio: "magic Fly" by Space
	4:52pm ifny: @bmw primadonna - 'Mr. Giant Man' by James Last. It's first in the playlist.
	4:53pm ifny: Oh hahaha. Boy am I slow on the uptake today, and thinking everyone else is same. :P
	4:54pm ifny: If there are any other questions that have an obvious misreading, feel free to ask...
	4:54pm northguineahills: My WFMU page is rather wonky, I tried twice to answer bmw's question and it errored out each time.
	4:54pm adrian in mpls: @Fuzzy - it's the same for me. I'm trying to develop a practice of reading again, and I find the type of slow, deep reading that I used to do has been replaced by a quick-skim reflex from only reading the internets the last couple of years. I find myself re-reading paragraphs frequently.
	4:56pm SeanG: same here Fuzzy and Adrian :-) --lately all I do is read these comments
	4:57pm Cecile: it's also a function of age, I'm sorry to say. My ADD has gotten so bad that I can't remember the last time I read a non graphic design, non-biography or Shopaholic (shut up) book all the way through. I just try to glean what I can and keep at it, but it usually doesn't end that well.
	4:59pm bmw primadonna: @fabio thanks,great sentimental track
	5:01pm Cecile: I wouldn't care, but cripes, I was an English major.
	5:02pm Andrew Waterloo: I find the first third of any book is always the most difficult.
	5:03pm Andrew Waterloo: Danger Diablo simply has everything.
	5:04pm Cecile: yeah, and that's where I get stuck.
	5:04pm Cecile: Space - Spanish Fly 1977
	5:04pm david_: Wait... you're not sure what Clay has in store?? ;)
	5:04pm Cecile: Sorry Magic Fly...
	5:04pm Cecile: yayayaya! Paul Metzger.
	5:04pm Andrew Waterloo: Especially the non-fiction stuff where you're being deluged with facts and you feel like you need to remember everything.
	5:05pm Polyus: Excellent!
	5:06pm adrian in mpls: @Cecile - FYI - He's playing Monday night for free in St Paul!
	5:06pm Cecile: where? Turf Club?
	5:07pm Fuzzy: I think I would like to abandon the screens/devices for a while when the weather gets nice again and go camping with a book or two. Gotta get back to the real.
	5:07pm adrian in mpls: Yep
	5:07pm Mutant: Clown lounge
	5:08pm Fuzzy: And that background music has a Giorgio Moroder/Art Bell Coast to Coast AM vibe.
	5:08pm Mutant: FYI, if you look at the back cover of this Metzger album you will see my name :)
	5:08pm Polyus: Steve Palmer is also playing, someone I have been hearing good things about.
	5:09pm adrian in mpls: @Polyus - yeah, I'm really curious about his work as well.
	5:10pm david_: Sarod?
	5:10pm Mutant: Sorry, I just get excited when I hear it on the radio
	5:10pm david_: oh, excuse me... modified banjo!
	5:11pm Cecile: well, I will probably not make it. Monday is bad. Nice, Mutant. Mine is on the Metzger/Chasney split 12". The plywood one.
	5:12pm Mutant: Awesome Cecile - I just went and looked!
	5:13pm Mutant: I did a couple of them
	5:13pm Cecile: yeah. hahahahha.
	5:15pm Mutant: BTW, Deliverance is all first takes. We did the whole thing in about an hour
	5:17pm Dean: What? No overdubbed "Dueling.."?
	5:17pm Marcel M: Yo yo Fabio and friends! Finally in from the cold.
	5:18pm Fabio: @ Marcel: Dug your recent Cassette.
	5:19pm ifny: Wow. New History of Warfare is spectacular. Thank you for bringing this on.
	5:19pm quinn: I am really enjoying this show.
	5:19pm Mutant: If he played dueling he would do both parts
	5:19pm chocolate monk: @mutant, sounded braw!
	👻 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Been meaning to clicky-star this Stetson every time it comes up. Now it be clickie'd. And all is well.
	5:21pm Marcel M: @Fabio: thanks! That's actually like a year and a half old!
	5:21pm ifny: If anyone wants to try before they buy, here is the whole album in one fell swoop. Though surely it's a foregone conclusion. www.youtube.com...
	5:26pm Stanley: A relatively restrained Brotzman performance, if I may say so.
	5:27pm Mutant: Thanks monk!
	5:29pm northguineahills: Thanks ifny!
	5:33pm Fuzzy: Call Art now! East of the Rockies, dial...
	5:34pm Claw!: Glad you survived the cold today, Marcel.
	5:34pm Marcel M: I enjoy the irony of how annoying it is
	5:34pm Cecile: no, it's awesome Fabio. Nice contrast to the stuff you play in your sets.
	5:34pm kuba: Noooo i like the bed music
	5:37pm Claw!: I like the bed music as well
	5:37pm Cecile: play the laughing gnome or whatever the hell it is .
	5:37pm V Priceless: Elvis Bowie Day! Yay! Oh...Big F-in Brother! Love it, Fabs!
	5:38pm Dean: Pedantically speaking, it's David Jones' birthday. Bowie was born twenty years later.
	5:38pm nic: painful
	5:39pm chocolate monk: "man who sold the world" is my fave Bowie. what about the anthony Newley shit though fabio?? i bet you like that.
	5:39pm Fuzzy: For bed music, you just can't beat "Calcutta."
	5:40pm V Priceless: Lady Grinning Soul, perhaps?
	5:41pm david_: @Fuzzy- but which version???
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Cygnet Committee' & 'Savior Machine'.
	5:41pm SeanG: aw man shoulda gone into the Chant of the evercircling skeletal family
	5:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'When I Live My Dream'...
	5:42pm V Priceless: I'm with SeanG
	5:44pm SeanG: this is my karaoke jam
	5:44pm david_: Fair warning: Don't look up how old Bowie is today if you don't want to feel old.
	5:46pm Mutant: I think he is doing really well for his age
	5:46pm Phillip in Brooklyn: Bowie looks great for his age
	5:47pm Phillip in Brooklyn: @fabio could we not have "ashes to ashes" or "scary monsters" or even "oh you pretty things" instead of some super obscure tracks?
	5:48pm V Priceless: nice
	5:48pm Phillip in Brooklyn: I love Bowie I have his whole catalog on my hard drive. And on my itouch 17 songs I can't live without
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Elvis b. 1935 - Year of Wood Dog (before Chinese New Year 1936) Davy Jones b. 1947 - Year of Fire Dog
	5:48pm Cecile: this is good, but Billy McKenzie just shreds this.
	5:49pm Fabio: @ Chocolate Monk: Yeah man, I LIKE the Newley stuff -- what about it??? got something you wanna tell me?
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (before Chinese New Year 1935)
	5:50pm david_: re: Bowie's looks vs age: This is true.
	5:50pm Dean: Something from his work with Iggy Pop?
	5:50pm V Priceless: time for a Tin Machine reunion, I declare!
	5:51pm Cecile: you know you're getting old when people say "you look good for your age". I know. I had that happen recently.
	5:51pm wilbur twinhorse: THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH!!
	5:51pm david_: TBH I have not really tackled Bowie's catalog... using these selections as a jumping off point.
	5:52pm Dean: Do I have to post another Henny Youngman age joke?
	5:52pm Jones'n: Scary Monsters Lp Is the end of a wonderful trilogy of Eno/fripp /Bowie.
	5:52pm dale: phillip must be kidding. let's dance is the worst bowie stuff ever - mtv pap. sorry. but maybe you were joking
	5:53pm dale: real early bowie london bye ta ta stuff is GREAT!
	5:53pm david_: COM-pass
	5:53pm V Priceless: fight with pal George Underwood
	5:54pm SeanG: hahaha Cecile!
	5:54pm Phillip in Brooklyn: @dale let's dance isn't so bad
	👻 5:54pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @cecile: true 'buff. On a related note: me at beer store earlier this week, cashier observing my ID, "damn, you do NOT look happy on dis..."
	5:54pm Gee Lampa: @Jonesn I thought it was Low, Heroes
	5:54pm dale: fabs - play anthony newley's 'for you' album on bell records. really pornographic
	5:55pm Marcel M: When I was in high school I bought the man who fell to Earth at the St. Mark's Kim's location, and the clerk said to me, "yeah I used to like this when I was younger…" I thought it was a very Kim's response
	5:55pm Gee Lampa: Lodger is #1.
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - agree Dale!: Love Mod pre-Huge Bowie !
	5:55pm david_: Clay's so sensitive!!
	5:56pm dale: maybe tin machine can cover some old tony and the tigers material
	5:56pm Gee Lampa@Jones'n: Low - Heroes - Lodger
	👻 5:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: edit:true 'nuff.
	5:57pm Gee Lampa: Say it back Fab!! "I love u, Clay!!"
	5:58pm david_: "yule log" uh-huh. ;)
	5:58pm SeanG: love this!
	5:59pm Gee Lampa: vU's "Squeeze" might be classified as a "Yule Log". Nyuk
	6:00pm Jones'n: Was Fripp on Lodger?
	6:00pm Marcel M: You're the best, thanks Fabio!
	6:01pm Gee Lampa: Belew
	6:01pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Bowie's 'High School' (Brit equivalent) art theacher was Peter Frampton's dad, whom he credits w/ important encouragement...
	6:03pm iris: Hi Clay and listeners!
	6:05pm iris: I think Clay is in a dark mood tonight.
	6:09pm iris: We need some Nina Hägen tonight!

Anyway, thank you for the good music and support (and btw, that jac berrocal's stuff was quite nice) !
	4:15pm northguineahills: I wish I never looked up the lyrics to Histoire de Melody Nelson, my favorite Serge album.
	4:16pm Billy Jean: Dude, I love your intro music, by far the best on FMU!
	4:16pm βrian: Meilleurs voeux, M. Fromageux.
	👻 4:16pm chris: aujourd'hui, nous sommes tous Français, cheesy
	4:16pm Cecile: Cheesy, we are just as shocked as you are, and we're hoping that you and all of France stay safe. It was truly horrifying learning about that.
	4:17pm Cecile: ngh, yeah, I'm not going to ever look those up.
	👻 4:18pm chris: thanks for the warning, ngh!
	4:21pm Cheri Pi: ce qu'il a dit.
	4:25pm KP: Agree on Inherent Vice. It helps in comprehending the book in retrospect
	4:25pm Chris from DC: I will definitely see that now.
	4:27pm steve: im curious what anyone thought of the book Inherent Vice? i just finished my first Pynchon book and am ready for another one (that's under 600 pages).
	4:28pm Mike East: the PT Anderson interview with Marc Maron is excellent and makes me really eager to see the film...which I probably won't until it comes out on DVD
	4:30pm Cheri Pi: l'étoile à clic
	4:33pm βrian: Touche pas à mon astre !
	4:33pm KP: Steve I tried Gravity's Rainbow but couldn't get through it. I thought Inherit Vice would help but it's nothing like it. It's pretty straightforward.
	4:37pm steve: haha same here KP. i just finished Bleeding Edge, which was excellent, had a lot to keep track of but overall easy to follow. Gravity's Rainbow is on my otherwise pretty thin shelf of books which i couldn't finish!
	4:38pm YETI BOB: i highly recommend this book to anyone who is trying to read Gravity's Rainbow: www.goodreads.com...
	4:38pm northguineahills: Very Fennezsy
	4:38pm YETI BOB: A Gravity's Rainbow Companion: Sources and Contexts for Pynchon's Novel by Steven Weisenburger
	4:39pm YETI BOB: i would not have made it through GR without Weisenburger's help. it's totally worth it though.
	4:39pm Fuzzy: Make it about halfway through Gravity's Rainbow. Managed to get through Infinite Jest, though -- no small feat!
	4:39pm adrian in mpls: I always recommend The Crying of Lot 49 - very short, very engaging narrative. If you have a spare day, you can easily read it all the way through. And then want to re-read it again.
	4:39pm Fuzzy: Made, rather...
	4:40pm common: couldn't get through gr. i wanna sometime. @adrain: same here
	4:41pm YETI BOB: Infinite Jest, Gravity's Rainbow, and "Life: A User's Manual' are 3 of my favorite books. On my "Couldn't get through it" shelf sit Jacques Roubaud, Robert Musil and Mark Danielewski
	4:43pm YETI BOB: (I don't think Danielewski really wanted people to read House of Leaves, though, so I don't feel bad for abandoning it. "Great Fire of London" and "The Man Without Qualities" really demand to be read, though. One of these days...)
	4:45pm Fuzzy: Tried and failed to read Cryptonomicon again recently. The internet has drastically altered my reading habits!
	4:46pm Dean: I couldn't sit through a reading by the author of passages from "House of Leaves."
	4:47pm steve: Thanks Yeti Bob, I may eventually give the companion a go. Can't deal with those unfinished books mocking me...
	4:49pm bmw primadonna: hey,whats the the song of this show,when the host speaks?
	4:50pm bmw primadonna: ...theme song
	4:52pm Fabio: "magic Fly" by Space
	4:52pm ifny: @bmw primadonna - 'Mr. Giant Man' by James Last. It's first in the playlist.
	4:53pm ifny: Oh hahaha. Boy am I slow on the uptake today, and thinking everyone else is same. :P
	4:54pm ifny: If there are any other questions that have an obvious misreading, feel free to ask...
	4:54pm northguineahills: My WFMU page is rather wonky, I tried twice to answer bmw's question and it errored out each time.
	4:54pm adrian in mpls: @Fuzzy - it's the same for me. I'm trying to develop a practice of reading again, and I find the type of slow, deep reading that I used to do has been replaced by a quick-skim reflex from only reading the internets the last couple of years. I find myself re-reading paragraphs frequently.
	4:56pm SeanG: same here Fuzzy and Adrian :-) --lately all I do is read these comments
	4:57pm Cecile: it's also a function of age, I'm sorry to say. My ADD has gotten so bad that I can't remember the last time I read a non graphic design, non-biography or Shopaholic (shut up) book all the way through. I just try to glean what I can and keep at it, but it usually doesn't end that well.
	4:59pm bmw primadonna: @fabio thanks,great sentimental track
	5:01pm Cecile: I wouldn't care, but cripes, I was an English major.
	5:02pm Andrew Waterloo: I find the first third of any book is always the most difficult.
	5:03pm Andrew Waterloo: Danger Diablo simply has everything.
	5:04pm Cecile: yeah, and that's where I get stuck.
	5:04pm Cecile: Space - Spanish Fly 1977
	5:04pm david_: Wait... you're not sure what Clay has in store?? ;)
	5:04pm Cecile: Sorry Magic Fly...
	5:04pm Cecile: yayayaya! Paul Metzger.
	5:04pm Andrew Waterloo: Especially the non-fiction stuff where you're being deluged with facts and you feel like you need to remember everything.
	5:05pm Polyus: Excellent!
	5:06pm adrian in mpls: @Cecile - FYI - He's playing Monday night for free in St Paul!
	5:06pm Cecile: where? Turf Club?
	5:07pm Fuzzy: I think I would like to abandon the screens/devices for a while when the weather gets nice again and go camping with a book or two. Gotta get back to the real.
	5:07pm adrian in mpls: Yep
	5:07pm Mutant: Clown lounge
	5:08pm Fuzzy: And that background music has a Giorgio Moroder/Art Bell Coast to Coast AM vibe.
	5:08pm Mutant: FYI, if you look at the back cover of this Metzger album you will see my name :)
	5:08pm Polyus: Steve Palmer is also playing, someone I have been hearing good things about.
	5:09pm adrian in mpls: @Polyus - yeah, I'm really curious about his work as well.
	5:10pm david_: Sarod?
	5:10pm Mutant: Sorry, I just get excited when I hear it on the radio
	5:10pm david_: oh, excuse me... modified banjo!
	5:11pm Cecile: well, I will probably not make it. Monday is bad. Nice, Mutant. Mine is on the Metzger/Chasney split 12". The plywood one.
	5:12pm Mutant: Awesome Cecile - I just went and looked!
	5:13pm Mutant: I did a couple of them
	5:13pm Cecile: yeah. hahahahha.
	5:15pm Mutant: BTW, Deliverance is all first takes. We did the whole thing in about an hour
	5:17pm Dean: What? No overdubbed "Dueling.."?
	5:17pm Marcel M: Yo yo Fabio and friends! Finally in from the cold.
	5:18pm Fabio: @ Marcel: Dug your recent Cassette.
	5:19pm ifny: Wow. New History of Warfare is spectacular. Thank you for bringing this on.
	5:19pm quinn: I am really enjoying this show.
	5:19pm Mutant: If he played dueling he would do both parts
	5:19pm chocolate monk: @mutant, sounded braw!
	👻 5:20pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Been meaning to clicky-star this Stetson every time it comes up. Now it be clickie'd. And all is well.
	5:21pm Marcel M: @Fabio: thanks! That's actually like a year and a half old!
	5:21pm ifny: If anyone wants to try before they buy, here is the whole album in one fell swoop. Though surely it's a foregone conclusion. www.youtube.com...
	5:26pm Stanley: A relatively restrained Brotzman performance, if I may say so.
	5:27pm Mutant: Thanks monk!
	5:29pm northguineahills: Thanks ifny!
	5:33pm Fuzzy: Call Art now! East of the Rockies, dial...
	5:34pm Claw!: Glad you survived the cold today, Marcel.
	5:34pm Marcel M: I enjoy the irony of how annoying it is
	5:34pm Cecile: no, it's awesome Fabio. Nice contrast to the stuff you play in your sets.
	5:34pm kuba: Noooo i like the bed music
	5:37pm Claw!: I like the bed music as well
	5:37pm Cecile: play the laughing gnome or whatever the hell it is .
	5:37pm V Priceless: Elvis Bowie Day! Yay! Oh...Big F-in Brother! Love it, Fabs!
	5:38pm Dean: Pedantically speaking, it's David Jones' birthday. Bowie was born twenty years later.
	5:38pm nic: painful
	5:39pm chocolate monk: "man who sold the world" is my fave Bowie. what about the anthony Newley shit though fabio?? i bet you like that.
	5:39pm Fuzzy: For bed music, you just can't beat "Calcutta."
	5:40pm V Priceless: Lady Grinning Soul, perhaps?
	5:41pm david_: @Fuzzy- but which version???
	5:41pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Cygnet Committee' & 'Savior Machine'.
	5:41pm SeanG: aw man shoulda gone into the Chant of the evercircling skeletal family
	5:42pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'When I Live My Dream'...
	5:42pm V Priceless: I'm with SeanG
	5:44pm SeanG: this is my karaoke jam
	5:44pm david_: Fair warning: Don't look up how old Bowie is today if you don't want to feel old.
	5:46pm Mutant: I think he is doing really well for his age
	5:46pm Phillip in Brooklyn: Bowie looks great for his age
	5:47pm Phillip in Brooklyn: @fabio could we not have "ashes to ashes" or "scary monsters" or even "oh you pretty things" instead of some super obscure tracks?
	5:48pm V Priceless: nice
	5:48pm Phillip in Brooklyn: I love Bowie I have his whole catalog on my hard drive. And on my itouch 17 songs I can't live without
	5:48pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Elvis b. 1935 - Year of Wood Dog (before Chinese New Year 1936) Davy Jones b. 1947 - Year of Fire Dog
	5:48pm Cecile: this is good, but Billy McKenzie just shreds this.
	5:49pm Fabio: @ Chocolate Monk: Yeah man, I LIKE the Newley stuff -- what about it??? got something you wanna tell me?
	5:49pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: (before Chinese New Year 1935)
	5:50pm david_: re: Bowie's looks vs age: This is true.
	5:50pm Dean: Something from his work with Iggy Pop?
	5:50pm V Priceless: time for a Tin Machine reunion, I declare!
	5:51pm Cecile: you know you're getting old when people say "you look good for your age". I know. I had that happen recently.
	5:51pm wilbur twinhorse: THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH!!
	5:51pm david_: TBH I have not really tackled Bowie's catalog... using these selections as a jumping off point.
	5:52pm Dean: Do I have to post another Henny Youngman age joke?
	5:52pm Jones'n: Scary Monsters Lp Is the end of a wonderful trilogy of Eno/fripp /Bowie.
	5:52pm dale: phillip must be kidding. let's dance is the worst bowie stuff ever - mtv pap. sorry. but maybe you were joking

	👻 5:54pm Rev. Turnip Druid: @cecile: true 'buff. On a related note: me at beer store earlier this week, cashier observing my ID, "damn, you do NOT look happy on dis..."
	5:54pm Gee Lampa: @Jonesn I thought it was Low, Heroes
	5:54pm dale: fabs - play anthony newley's 'for you' album on bell records. really pornographic
	5:55pm Marcel M: When I was in high school I bought the man who fell to Earth at the St. Mark's Kim's location, and the clerk said to me, "yeah I used to like this when I was younger…" I thought it was a very Kim's response
	5:55pm Gee Lampa: Lodger is #1.
	5:55pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63: - agree Dale!: Love Mod pre-Huge Bowie !
	5:55pm david_: Clay's so sensitive!!

	👻 5:56pm Rev. Turnip Druid: edit:true 'nuff.
	5:57pm Gee Lampa: Say it back Fab!! "I love u, Clay!!"
	5:58pm david_: "yule log" uh-huh. ;)
	5:58pm SeanG: love this!
	5:59pm Gee Lampa: vU's "Squeeze" might be classified as a "Yule Log". Nyuk

	6:00pm Marcel M: You're the best, thanks Fabio!
	6:01pm Gee Lampa: Belew
