	👻 3:24pm Rev. Turnip Druid: That track was a definite dewlap-stuffer. Binder-clips as well.
	3:26pm P-90: "dewlap-stuffer"! noun of the week!
	3:26pm Sem Chumbo: Hey, common. Looking good!
	3:27pm Ĩk∑: @Stepchild@3:10, I'm going, I'm going! Jeez! I imagine FMU reception is good in Bush Terminal Park, so I'll go there. Maybe. If I feel like it. YOU CAN'T MAKE ME.

	4:02pm common: low!
	4:03pm Lewis: this is still bowie?
	4:04pm Cecile: trip-eeeeee
	👻 4:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Every stapler in this place is gnawed to misshapen rubble now.
	4:05pm ?: this sounds like a mashup of backwards loops of Come Together and All Along the Watchtower
	4:06pm Ghost of Posts Past: hi yall i'm the ghost of posts past
	4:06pm northguineahills: Ended up in purgatory in Mexico south of Cancun. At my brother's wedding, and enjoying Fabio as per usual. Thanks!
	4:07pm JakeGould: The Failure of Oatmeal: My late lunch today.
	4:07pm Ghost of Posts Past: i'm liking this tune.
	4:07pm d¢ pät: I was thinking Come Together and some Zep tune.
	4:10pm ikє: (Continued) Failure to Get Outside and Go to Bush Terminal Park (Yet)
	4:12pm JakeGould: @Ike: Just checked. Bush Terminal Park seems to keep whackadoo “who uses this park” hours. www.nycgovparks.org...
	4:14pm fred: Is that Gate album the one with "Mary and Mars"? I've love that track since I heard it on this show, years ago
	4:14pm V Priceless: so this is the new Stones? Nice!
	4:17pm ikє: Yeah Jake, I noticed. Bummer.
	4:19pm d¢ pät: Well there are 2 Davey Joneses...
	4:20pm d¢ pät: [little late on that post^^...thought I'd posted...dammit]
	👻 4:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: th'Cat Motel!!!!
	4:26pm Fabio: @ Fred: Yes.
	4:28pm Chris from DC: What th'Rev said writ large.
	4:30pm northguineahills: Nice to have Birchville Cat Motel outplay the gringo hiphop de jeure I'm enduring here. Crap, the iPhone app allows for more misspellings.
	👻 4:31pm Rev. Turnip Druid: iFailure
	4:32pm Mark: I stayed at the Birchville Cat Motel once--never again!
	4:32pm common: hell yea this!
	4:35pm common: i, for one, must be 17
	4:35pm Matt: I'm enjoying this just fine.
	4:36pm steve: BCM played the US lately? i saw him at Tonic ~10 years ago and he owned
	4:37pm Chris from DC: Wow, no but I wish he'd make it back. I saw him twice on that tour. Transcendent.
	4:37pm d¢ pät: 17 here too, thanks.
	👻 4:39pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Screw you teenagers. 47 and love th'Cat Motel.
	4:39pm northguineahills: @apple caruthers: This 'pretentious' music is the only thing keeping me sane in this gringo pop hiphop hell I'm experiencing south of the border.
	4:41pm Polyus: I learned the truth at 17, when I first heard Metal Machine
	👻 4:42pm chris: viva pretentious noise! its just what i need right now. adios, "some" djs.
	4:42pm northguineahills: Thank ye gods for Kenzo, for making this app possible.
	4:42pm common: yea, polyus! think i was about 10
	4:43pm JakeGould: @Ike: But FWIW, there is a big push to “revitalize’ (aka: gentrify) Sunset Park. So the Bush Terminal Park is one piece in a larger puzzle that will get better hours when other zoning crap happens. Mark my words.
	4:44pm Ghost of Posts Past: @Apples Caruthers noise rock/music can be good. it depends on how the music plays out and if the duration compliments the "sounds" being used. i for one don't like compositions that play out for 20 minutes with minimal effort, unless the purpose is to be anti-music. not all noise rock however, is anti-music. some sound fine with a shorter track duration than others. you'd be surprised that noise has a lot of variety. btw. i'm in my mid 20's and still enjoying noise just fine.
	4:44pm steve: people "misusing" quotation marks really drives me nuts
	4:45pm Stepchild: "nuts"
	4:45pm Stepchild: "to"
	4:45pm Chris from DC: That's so "true."
	4:45pm Stepchild: "trolls"
	👻 4:45pm chris: too true, "steve"
	4:46pm Apples Caruthers: northguineahills; well anything is better than the gringo pop hip hop hell we are ALL experiencing! :) As long as it is being enjoyed than I should be the one to bow out for a few minutes.
	👻 4:47pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ..and I have yet to hear Metal Machine Mucus. Went from Electric Light Orchestra to Throbbing Gristle in one fateful day, age 11. Talk about a rite of passage...
	4:47pm Ghost of Posts Past: @steve oh no :( did i use quotations improperly? i sometimes screw up grammatically.
	4:50pm steve: GoPP i dont think so... the true offender was Trolly Trollington above you who used "some" quotation marks "incorrectly" "."
	4:50pm Mark: Ike I notice in two weeks or so (May 2nd), that park will be open til 8 for the summer! I support everyone's right not to like every single thing every single DJ plays every single day. It can get a little "Emperor's New Clothes" around here sometimes. I posted a critical comment about a track I heard this morning and everybody answered with how much they were enjoying it--I said, well, that's the nature of freeform, right? The reason I listen to FMU is, even if a DJ plays something I don't like, I'm pretty sure if I stay tuned, I'll hear something else I REALLY like soon. (If I don't jump out the window first.) I'm actually a big Fabio fan and even that very annoying noise track was OK with me today. Now, another day I might not be able to take it. Oh, well.
	4:50pm Ghost of Posts Past: Metal Machine Music is an interesting album for me. it's a concept i love, yet i can barely get past part 2.
	4:51pm Lewis: great set! - right on the money for my state of mind and tasks at hand Thanks Fabio!
	4:52pm Stepchild: This set!!
	4:52pm Claw!: "Stop" quotation ab"use."
	4:52pm northguineahills: Ok, time for wedding crap. My wife will Be happy knowing my checking account just got wiped out by the NY tax authority. Thanks H
	4:52pm V Priceless: "Noise is for heroes, leave the music for zeroes..oh yeah!"
	4:52pm Mark: One time someone was playing a rather noisy track and I commented that I thought that the person upstairs was vacuuming, and he replied that he had taken a buzz saw to the turntable--it's all in good fun.
	4:53pm common: man, that's great rev! big elo and tg fan! and gopp, i was an english teacher once and i can't spell at all.
	4:53pm Listener Robert: Anybody's c.w. fast enough to read the Morse in this?
	👻 4:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Is this RM74? Lovely stuff. Will research this mofo.
	4:54pm Mark: I read once that Lou Reed only did "Metal Machine Music" to punish his label because he was mad at them and he wanted to give them the least commercial thing he could think of. I'll always remember his interview with Lester Bangs, telling him there were bits of Beethoven in there, but Lester couldn't hear it because he was too stupid.
	4:54pm Chris from DC: Rev, that RM74 is great.
	4:55pm Stepchild: Rev, I can endorse " Pirouetten" which he (she? them?) did with RLW...
	4:57pm Stepchild: they/them. Sorry, grammaticians
	4:57pm Apples Caruthers: Mark, what you said says what I said, a lot better.And to Steve, theres always someone with ruler on hand with the punctuation punishment, may as well be me today. Was that enough commas for you? And hey, my name ain't Trolly it's Polly.
	4:58pm northguineahills: @Mark: I once was playing a droney piece, and my roommate (back when I was in college), and he commented, "are you vacuuming?". Four years later, I met said musician, and he said, actually that was a sampled vacuum.
	5:01pm common: my band horsey was playing at a sportsy type bar-for some reason-...noise a plenty. we were so into it and i looked up and the owner of the bar was giving me the neck cut sign and jumping up and down in front of us. ah, whatever floats yer boat.
	5:01pm Claw!: Hug it out, guys.
	5:02pm V Priceless: horsey!
	5:05pm common: ha! vp!
	5:05pm bloopy: Morning fab and fabheads
	5:06pm common: and so great ngh!!!
	👻 5:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid: th'GNOD! I may whoop!
	5:10pm Stepchild: Gneed Gnod
	5:10pm i k e: Well this ain't much of a park down here, or not yet anyway. Good FM reception though!
	5:11pm common: whoop!
	5:11pm redkayak: Being here now. Check. :)
	5:11pm Stepchild: Failure to Appreciate the Crummy Park!
	5:13pm V Priceless: 'Failure of elephant hunter to avoid death by elephant' has a pleasurable ring to it
	5:13pm TDK60: Fabio, might 'Failure of the 21st Century' be added to the list?
	👻 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: A story of failure for today. Several different computer systems at work today gave me messages about failing passwords. Long story short, I recently spilled a little honey on my keyboard while drinking tea. The honey was causing an extra character to get entered. But I couldn't see it because password letters are hidden. This had me in a panic all afternoon until I figured out the problem.
	5:14pm common: perfect vp!
	5:14pm Fabio: @TDK60: that's already part of it...
	5:15pm Sem Chumbo: So, it was a honey boo-boo, then, KfHP.
	5:16pm Claw!: rimshot
	5:18pm TDK60: Fabio: '21st' is? I only see '20th'. I'll look closer...
	5:19pm Chris from DC: Clicking the whole show today.
	5:23pm Fabio: You're RIGHT! I was thinking of the 20th Century -- HUGE failures there. 21st Century is a little early still, but you're probably right and the way things look, it will be a spectacular failure...
	5:25pm common: hee! yes fabio!
	5:26pm Carmichael: Well, today has been a total failure. So I guess I fit right in.
	5:29pm nic: love this
	5:30pm TDK60: Yes, the show certainly is a fine failure. Gosh, I only know about 4 of the acts. That's okay, love hearing new things today.
	5:32pm P-90: Bees 1, computers 0
	5:36pm Joshua K: I got one of these amazon echo talking speaker things, and it can play WFMU. Also I can yell at it to tell it to adjust the volume.
	5:38pm Stepchild: LOUDER!!!
	5:39pm ikє: Failure to be fair to the park: I should admit it's better than nothing. They could've just left a bunch of old crumbling warehouses and unused docks down there.
	5:45pm Ĩk∑: Did a whiny troll complain about noise and get deleted at 4:35? Damn, I missed it. Failure to Catch All the Drama.
	5:47pm Stepchild: That's what happens when you go outside, Ike.
	5:47pm coelacanth: Hi Fabio and super-human failures. ...'tried to get here sooner. i failed. -i feel strong.
	5:48pm david_: Pict a winner
	5:50pm BIG JIM: TELL clay the picts were Scottish not Irish
	5:51pm david_: Heard Pink Floyd grooved with them. HAAA!
	5:52pm P-90: "Hazel" Mom was Whitney Blake
	5:53pm common: psycho, man! topaz...not so much.
	5:53pm Greg from Bloomfield: TWILIGHT ZONE NO QUESTION
	5:53pm dale: randolph mantooth has the same cadence as peter lemonjello.
	5:53pm common: and yes, greg! twilight zone! night gallery also!
	5:54pm Ĩke: "Marnie" was great?!? It's hilariously sexist, and its understanding of psychology is silly at best. It has its moments though, I guess....
	5:54pm david_: Warm Leatherette every week
	5:56pm ikє: But that's a very rare Hitchcock misfire. Most of his movies are great. Folks don't give "Foreign Correspondent" or "Lifeboat" enough props....
	5:56pm mavrg: Is there anything wrong with playing Can all the time? You can never play enough.
	5:56pm P-90: Tex Ritter was John's dad, Thelma no relation.
	5:57pm david_: "Satie had little fondness for German music. He told Debussy, for instance, that what was needed was a music without any sauerkraut in it." -John Cage
	5:57pm P-90: Marnie was idiosyncratic, stylized, experimental, but sure not a misfire.
	5:57pm david_: The Failure of immediacy.
	5:59pm P-90: at first I heard "Ouzo and Dharmas" not Darvons
	6:00pm V Priceless: clay = puppet show!
	6:01pm P-90: Fabio: Mr. Moose.

	4:44pm Ghost of Posts Past: @Apples Caruthers noise rock/music can be good. it depends on how the music plays out and if the duration compliments the "sounds" being used. i for one don't like compositions that play out for 20 minutes with minimal effort, unless the purpose is to be anti-music. not all noise rock however, is anti-music. some sound fine with a shorter track duration than others. you'd be surprised that noise has a lot of variety. btw. i'm in my mid 20's and still enjoying noise just fine.
	4:44pm steve: people "misusing" quotation marks really drives me nuts
	4:45pm Stepchild: "nuts"
	4:45pm Stepchild: "to"
	4:45pm Chris from DC: That's so "true."
	4:45pm Stepchild: "trolls"
	👻 4:45pm chris: too true, "steve"
	4:46pm Apples Caruthers: northguineahills; well anything is better than the gringo pop hip hop hell we are ALL experiencing! :) As long as it is being enjoyed than I should be the one to bow out for a few minutes.
	👻 4:47pm Rev. Turnip Druid: ..and I have yet to hear Metal Machine Mucus. Went from Electric Light Orchestra to Throbbing Gristle in one fateful day, age 11. Talk about a rite of passage...
	4:47pm Ghost of Posts Past: @steve oh no :( did i use quotations improperly? i sometimes screw up grammatically.
	4:50pm steve: GoPP i dont think so... the true offender was Trolly Trollington above you who used "some" quotation marks "incorrectly" "."
	4:50pm Mark: Ike I notice in two weeks or so (May 2nd), that park will be open til 8 for the summer! I support everyone's right not to like every single thing every single DJ plays every single day. It can get a little "Emperor's New Clothes" around here sometimes. I posted a critical comment about a track I heard this morning and everybody answered with how much they were enjoying it--I said, well, that's the nature of freeform, right? The reason I listen to FMU is, even if a DJ plays something I don't like, I'm pretty sure if I stay tuned, I'll hear something else I REALLY like soon. (If I don't jump out the window first.) I'm actually a big Fabio fan and even that very annoying noise track was OK with me today. Now, another day I might not be able to take it. Oh, well.
	4:50pm Ghost of Posts Past: Metal Machine Music is an interesting album for me. it's a concept i love, yet i can barely get past part 2.
	4:51pm Lewis: great set! - right on the money for my state of mind and tasks at hand Thanks Fabio!
	4:52pm Stepchild: This set!!
	4:52pm Claw!: "Stop" quotation ab"use."
	4:52pm northguineahills: Ok, time for wedding crap. My wife will Be happy knowing my checking account just got wiped out by the NY tax authority. Thanks H
	4:52pm V Priceless: "Noise is for heroes, leave the music for zeroes..oh yeah!"
	4:52pm Mark: One time someone was playing a rather noisy track and I commented that I thought that the person upstairs was vacuuming, and he replied that he had taken a buzz saw to the turntable--it's all in good fun.
	4:53pm common: man, that's great rev! big elo and tg fan! and gopp, i was an english teacher once and i can't spell at all.
	4:53pm Listener Robert: Anybody's c.w. fast enough to read the Morse in this?
	👻 4:53pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Is this RM74? Lovely stuff. Will research this mofo.
	4:54pm Mark: I read once that Lou Reed only did "Metal Machine Music" to punish his label because he was mad at them and he wanted to give them the least commercial thing he could think of. I'll always remember his interview with Lester Bangs, telling him there were bits of Beethoven in there, but Lester couldn't hear it because he was too stupid.
	4:54pm Chris from DC: Rev, that RM74 is great.
	4:55pm Stepchild: Rev, I can endorse " Pirouetten" which he (she? them?) did with RLW...
	4:57pm Stepchild: they/them. Sorry, grammaticians
	4:57pm Apples Caruthers: Mark, what you said says what I said, a lot better.And to Steve, theres always someone with ruler on hand with the punctuation punishment, may as well be me today. Was that enough commas for you? And hey, my name ain't Trolly it's Polly.
	4:58pm northguineahills: @Mark: I once was playing a droney piece, and my roommate (back when I was in college), and he commented, "are you vacuuming?". Four years later, I met said musician, and he said, actually that was a sampled vacuum.
	5:01pm common: my band horsey was playing at a sportsy type bar-for some reason-...noise a plenty. we were so into it and i looked up and the owner of the bar was giving me the neck cut sign and jumping up and down in front of us. ah, whatever floats yer boat.
	5:01pm Claw!: Hug it out, guys.
	5:02pm V Priceless: horsey!
	5:05pm common: ha! vp!
	5:05pm bloopy: Morning fab and fabheads
	5:06pm common: and so great ngh!!!
	👻 5:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid: th'GNOD! I may whoop!
	5:10pm Stepchild: Gneed Gnod
	5:10pm i k e: Well this ain't much of a park down here, or not yet anyway. Good FM reception though!
	5:11pm common: whoop!
	5:11pm redkayak: Being here now. Check. :)
	5:11pm Stepchild: Failure to Appreciate the Crummy Park!
	5:13pm V Priceless: 'Failure of elephant hunter to avoid death by elephant' has a pleasurable ring to it
	5:13pm TDK60: Fabio, might 'Failure of the 21st Century' be added to the list?
	👻 5:14pm Ken From Hyde Park: A story of failure for today. Several different computer systems at work today gave me messages about failing passwords. Long story short, I recently spilled a little honey on my keyboard while drinking tea. The honey was causing an extra character to get entered. But I couldn't see it because password letters are hidden. This had me in a panic all afternoon until I figured out the problem.
	5:14pm common: perfect vp!
	5:14pm Fabio: @TDK60: that's already part of it...
	5:15pm Sem Chumbo: So, it was a honey boo-boo, then, KfHP.
	5:16pm Claw!: rimshot
	5:18pm TDK60: Fabio: '21st' is? I only see '20th'. I'll look closer...
	5:19pm Chris from DC: Clicking the whole show today.
	5:23pm Fabio: You're RIGHT! I was thinking of the 20th Century -- HUGE failures there. 21st Century is a little early still, but you're probably right and the way things look, it will be a spectacular failure...
	5:25pm common: hee! yes fabio!
	5:26pm Carmichael: Well, today has been a total failure. So I guess I fit right in.
	5:29pm nic: love this
	5:30pm TDK60: Yes, the show certainly is a fine failure. Gosh, I only know about 4 of the acts. That's okay, love hearing new things today.
	5:32pm P-90: Bees 1, computers 0
	5:36pm Joshua K: I got one of these amazon echo talking speaker things, and it can play WFMU. Also I can yell at it to tell it to adjust the volume.
	5:38pm Stepchild: LOUDER!!!
	5:39pm ikє: Failure to be fair to the park: I should admit it's better than nothing. They could've just left a bunch of old crumbling warehouses and unused docks down there.
	5:45pm Ĩk∑: Did a whiny troll complain about noise and get deleted at 4:35? Damn, I missed it. Failure to Catch All the Drama.
	5:47pm Stepchild: That's what happens when you go outside, Ike.
	5:47pm coelacanth: Hi Fabio and super-human failures. ...'tried to get here sooner. i failed. -i feel strong.
	5:48pm david_: Pict a winner
	5:50pm BIG JIM: TELL clay the picts were Scottish not Irish
	5:51pm david_: Heard Pink Floyd grooved with them. HAAA!
	5:52pm P-90: "Hazel" Mom was Whitney Blake
	5:53pm common: psycho, man! topaz...not so much.
	5:53pm Greg from Bloomfield: TWILIGHT ZONE NO QUESTION
	5:53pm dale: randolph mantooth has the same cadence as peter lemonjello.
	5:53pm common: and yes, greg! twilight zone! night gallery also!
	5:54pm Ĩke: "Marnie" was great?!? It's hilariously sexist, and its understanding of psychology is silly at best. It has its moments though, I guess....
	5:54pm david_: Warm Leatherette every week
	5:56pm ikє: But that's a very rare Hitchcock misfire. Most of his movies are great. Folks don't give "Foreign Correspondent" or "Lifeboat" enough props....
	5:56pm mavrg: Is there anything wrong with playing Can all the time? You can never play enough.
	5:56pm P-90: Tex Ritter was John's dad, Thelma no relation.
	5:57pm david_: "Satie had little fondness for German music. He told Debussy, for instance, that what was needed was a music without any sauerkraut in it." -John Cage
	5:57pm P-90: Marnie was idiosyncratic, stylized, experimental, but sure not a misfire.
	5:57pm david_: The Failure of immediacy.
	5:59pm P-90: at first I heard "Ouzo and Dharmas" not Darvons
	6:00pm V Priceless: clay = puppet show!
	6:01pm P-90: Fabio: Mr. Moose.
