	12:04am Matt from Springfield: I AM in the dark! The light bulb in my computer room burnt out yesterday. And two days ago the power went out -- darkness is coming!...

	12:05am P-90: @Matt: making a rare appearance, glad you're with us

	12:11am Matt from Springfield: I always enjoy the CS Team too! Glad to see you here!
	12:11am P-90: 11 minutes in, this show already officially kicks ass
	12:13am C.S.: Ha. I always though of myself as on the B-Team. Not really a constant presence compared to the FMU regulars but I tend to show up in the oddest time slots. ;)
	12:14am C.S.: ...but so do Meghan and Julie nowadays.
	12:15am Matt from Springfield: I've enjoyed the relatively frequent Julie appearances on fill-ins.
	12:17am JakeGould: Julie is this month’s Bill Mac as far as fill-ins go. And hey! That’s a nice thing!
	🦇 12:18am Julie: it is nice to be here! :D
	12:18am Matt from Springfield: How anti-establishment 80s of this music! Evening Jake! I would say Julie is becoming a Todd-O-Phonic fill-in, but he's on the main schedule now!
	12:19am Matt from Springfield: It's nice to listen Julie! :D Thanks for bringing in the Dark Night magic again!
	12:23am C.S.: Love the minimal wave synth of Void Vision.
	🦇 12:23am Julie: She's touring Europe right now I think
	12:24am C.S.: This tune reminds me a little of "Celeste" by Xeno and Oaklander
	12:25am Matt from Springfield: Compute, people, COMPUTE!!!!
	12:27am C.S.: The humans do not compute.
	12:27am Meghan: Ohhhh Dark Night dance party!
	🦇 12:27am Julie: don't forget guys, still raising money to keep us afloat! hehe hey meghan, yeah for now it is. Want I should lock Stan up so you can do 3am?
	12:28am Matt from Springfield: "Dance in the Dark" with us, Meghan!
	12:28am C.S.: All the dark awesomeness with half the sleep deprivation.
	12:28am Meghan: Ha! Stan for president!
	12:29am Tome: 1,, 2 .. 3 .. //\\\\///\\//\/\
	12:29am Matt from Springfield: @CS: That does not compute..! Then again, neither do I without my crutch, er, machinery. And yes! Midnight is a great time slot - still so dark and quiet, not too late!
	12:29am Meghan: That's the joys of fill ins.... Better hours!
	🦇 12:29am Julie: oh yeah midnight is the best
	12:30am C.S.: @Meghan. That's the truth!
	12:32am Tome: bit.ly...
	12:33am Meghan: Though the hard part of fill ins is fundraising..... Help a sistah out!
	12:33am Matt from Springfield: Devo-ish! Devo-esque!
	12:33am C.S.: @Tome: That's what I was thinking...only this version would be for the robotic Drew.
	12:35am C.S.: @Matt Pair this with Devo's Working in a Coal Mine. (Which had been used as the theme for the Fred Savage sitcom back in the day.)
	12:35am JakeGould: Wow. This “Five O’Clock World” cover is so weird.
	12:37am Matt from Springfield: @CS: You know I may have been thinking of that subconsciously! Similar themes, now in similar styles.
	12:38am C.S.: Nice transition with The Human League, Julie. @Matt Ya, that makes sense.
	12:41am JakeGould: Technically since this is before 3:00am, this is a “Dark Evening of the Soul” right?
	🦇 12:42am Julie: midnight is evening?
	12:43am JakeGould: @Julie: Compared to 3:00am being night, right?
	🦇 12:44am Julie: Well, sure, yeah!
	12:47am Matt from Springfield: Prime Time of the Soul, on WFMU 91! Playing all your favorite stax of wax!
	🦇 12:49am Julie: it's always 3am, all day every day
	12:55am Matt from Springfield: Yes the Vogues - and yes, Drew Carey!
	12:55am C.S.: "Bite me, doughboy!"
	12:59am Ike: Wait, are there people who DON'T follow weird TV shows?
	1:00am Matt from Springfield: @Ike: Those people are weird. Let's make a TV show about them!
	1:01am Matt from Springfield: Everyone will yield to Sabbath eventually.
	1:02am C.S.: Time to cleanse the palate.
	1:03am JakeGould: METS WIN! LOOK OUT CUBS!!!
	1:04am Ike: Even if Mr. Robot hadn't turned out to be good, I would've been impressed that somebody did a TV drama about something other than crime-fighters, spies, doctors, or lawyers.
	1:04am C.S.: www.youtube.com...
	1:04am Matt from Springfield: I just heard a good remix of Shirley Bassey's version of this song! Do you hear a familiar dolorose atmosphere in here?: " "If You Go Away" is an adaptation of the 1959 Jacques Brel song "Ne me quitte pas" with English lyrics by Rod McKuen." Seasons In The Sun was also a Rod McKuen translation of Brel.
	🦇 1:05am Julie: it was supposed to be a movie but he got really long winded
	1:08am P-90: Someone very smart who knew a lot about music once told me, if you put a Neil Diamond record on at a party, a lot of people are going to make casually deprecating remarks when the song starts, because Neil isn't "cool." But then, for the rest of the song, the same people just get real quiet, conversation stops in the room-- because everyone is LISTENING, including the ones who had to say something snarky at first....you know?
	🦇 1:08am Julie: My sister had Live at the Greek when I was little I liked it a lot
	1:10am JakeGould: @P-90: Same thing with Steely Dan. Also, if you are Jewish on any level and you grow up in NYC you will be listening to tons of Neil Diamond and Billy Joel whether you want to or not. Also, I found out in college that all of the orthodox kids consider Steely Dan to be really “out there”… It’s like Orthodox New Wave to listen to Steely Dan.
	1:12am P-90: Live at the Greek is a classic. And @Matt: Shirley B. can do no wrong in my book, and she seems to be especially re-mixable/mash-uppable, her stuff just translates
	1:12am Matt from Springfield: @Jake: Donald Fagen's already got the New Wave skinny-tie look: en.wikipedia.org...
	🦇 1:12am Julie: Orthodox New wave
	1:12am C.S.: Back in my youth I used to tune in a lot of commercial radio and for a time that included Neil Diamond. Now I just can't really listen to that stuff anymore. Now I'm lookng for what I haven't heard.
	1:13am Matt from Springfield: @P-90: No wrongs I agree! - EFD also agrees! The awards show that brought her to sing "Goldfinger" recently also agrees!
	1:14am Matt from Springfield: "re-mixable/mash-uppable", her voice itself has that je-ne-sais-quoi rhythm about it - it fits into different mixes well!
	1:14am JakeGould: @MattfromSpringfield: At the college newspaper there was this one Orthodox kid who would make sure to point out he was into Steely Dan when some of us talked about music… We were talking about Metallica, Depeche Mode and the Stone Roses so that “Dan” news kind of introduced me to a new level of, “Well… This is… What?”
	🦇 1:16am Summer and Michael: So glad to hear your fill-in tonight!
	🦇 1:17am Julie: thank you Summer & Michael!
	1:19am Matt from Springfield: "Yeah! Modern music! Secular! The Dan guys aren't even Orthodox!" Kind of like the old Catholic cardinal some years back who talked of the "demonic" influence in rock music from bands like The Eagles! ..Actually, that was prob worse!
	1:21am C.S.: Repent sinners! www.youtube.com...
	1:21am P-90: CS: of course a lot of that stuff that used to be on commercial radio was great. But they played it all to DEATH, and we're all here at 91.1 looking for what we haven't heard, or at least not heard as much. Steely Dan a great example: that band in its heyday had a lot of qualities that FMU DJ's and listeners would tend put a great deal of value on: musicianship, originality, inspired arrangement/production etc. But its one of they're favorite bands to hate on now and belittle. Because of the crushing overexposure for a couple of decades, a lot of people just can't listen to any of it any more. Ditto Fleetwood Mac and a slew of others.
	1:23am C.S.: @P-90 Yes. Used to listen to classic rock, oldies when they played do-wop, country, easy listening, 80s music. All played to death and I just can't listen to even the songs I liked for very long.
	1:24am C.S.: I wonder if I would like college / community radio if all the music was found in the mainstream and played to death
	1:26am Matt from Springfield: A Place Both Wonderful and Strange - gotta love these band/song/album titles you find!
	🦇 1:26am Julie: Niabi from Radiana is in this band
	1:26am P-90: That's part of what's so cool about shows like Spazz and Rex, even Michael Shelley or what Amanda Nazario does, they play "oldies", but not those same 50 "oldies" that WCBS or other "oldies format" stations play and play and play...
	1:28am C.S.: Nothing hurts my ears more than when I catch mainstream music on the PA system of a store or restaurant and can't get away.
	1:32am C.S.: I was just telling a friend that tuning into college / community radio is more intimate and requires you to be an active listener in order to track down all the obscure music.
	1:32am sugarwolf: @P-90: see, I feel like a total square because all the music fans/critics I know looooooove Steely Dan and Fleetwood Mac and I am just not interested in any of it
	1:34am JakeGould: @P-90: That said… There should be a band named, “Slew” and if they have a cover band, the band will be named “Slew of Others.”
	1:37am Matt from Springfield: Yeah, CTs! Garlands! Julie, play them again! Play them 4 times, we'll call it "Coct 2 Twin Spins! So nice x nice, we played it twice x twice"!!
	1:38am C.S.: Cocteau Quadruplets?
	🦇 1:38am Julie: Meghan and I need to do another 4AD show
	🦇 1:40am Julie: I'm having a really good time, are you guys having a good time?
	1:40am Alejandroool: Hello alllll
	1:40am C.S.: @Julie Heck, ya.
	🦇 1:41am Julie: hi there Alejandroot!
	1:41am Matt from Springfield: @CS: Why not! :) @Julie: Solicit vacation info from back-to-back DJs! Hell, trick them into both going on a 6 hour boat ride if need be and fill-in together with Meghan!
	1:42am Matt from Springfield: Good times, Jules! Thanks! :D
	1:43am C.S.: @Matt from Springfield :D
	1:43am Alejandroool: for a min I thought I had my days mixed up! phew, didn't lose a day in my mind....
	1:43am sugarwolf: @Julie: I should go to bed but your music choices are too enjoyable. Glad I have off from work tomorrow!
	🦇 1:43am Julie: I seem to have drifted back into the 80s. This is another Mr Robot track
	🦇 1:44am Julie: That's nice to hear sugarwolf, both things :)
	1:44am JakeGould: Keep on drifting into the 1980s!
	1:45am slugluv1313: good evening Julie and listeners! so lovely to hear The Cure right now
	🦇 1:45am Julie: hey there slugluv!
	1:45am Alejandroool: love slug!
	1:46am rw: Having a good time. Thanks for filling in tonight! Don't often have a chance to hear the Dark Night of the Soul!
	1:50am RS: What music could save a jersey guy in Albuquerque
	1:51am rw: Speaking of The Cure, I remember watching the video Staring at the Sea (I think that's what it's called) back in the mid '80s. It's a compilation of The Cure videos in chronological order. It's pretty fun to watch the transformation/progression of Robert Smith's hairstyle.
	1:52am Alejandroool: Ronnnnnnn?
	1:52am Matt from Springfield: Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me - always thought of this intro as unusual.
	1:53am Matt from Springfield: Ah, "crowd noises from the miners' strike"
	1:54am C.S.: Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me...then at some pint you just stop dreaming of it anymore. (That must be my inner goth talking.)
	1:54am C.S.: point
	🦇 1:54am Julie: if you have not seen, you must see thischarmingcharlie.tumblr.com
	1:57am C.S.: That kid was ahead of his time.
	1:57am Matt from Springfield: Match point, C.S.
	🦇 1:57am Julie: the smiths/charlie brown mashup is so perfect
	1:57am C.S.: s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...
	🦇 1:58am Julie: hahaha nice CS
	1:59am C.S.: :)
	1:59am Matt from Springfield: HA! That is great Julie! And, PERFECT follow up C.S.!
	2:00am slugluv1313: LOVE thischarmingcharlie -- PERFECT! now i am wondering if Charlie Brown's angst was somehow inspirational to The Smiths! and so many others, come to think of it . . . so alone, so young, so tragic! . . . WAY ahead of his time!
	2:01am Matt from Springfield: Laura Nyro, another singer I think can do no wrong. Even when her lyrics aren't the best...my God, how she SINGS them! She IS soul!
	2:01am JakeGould: 41.media.tumblr.com...
	2:01am slugluv1313: @ C.S. -- excellent, EXACTLY!
	2:03am Matt from Springfield: @slugluv: "Peanuts" was called by some critic to be both the first modern, and first post-modern comic.
	2:03am C.S.: @JakeGould :D
	2:05am slugluv1313: @ Matt from Springfield -- good point! when i was a kid, i would get her LPs from the local library -- knew most of the songs, but never just read the lyrics on their own (yup those were the days of lyric sheets!) . . . some of them would sound kinda "corny" but DAMN! when she sang them it was like the words were given life, depth, dimension -- like you say, total SOUL
	2:06am Matt from Springfield: Yes, I think "West End" shows for London. Tottenham Court Road, Regent Street etc.
	2:08am Matt from Springfield: All right slugluv, glad you also appreciate! :)
	2:17am C.S.: Got to go. Catch the rest on the archives. Great show as always, Julie. Fun talking with everyone on the comments board, too. Goodnight all.
	🦇 2:18am Julie: thanks for listening CS!
	2:19am C.S.: Nite!
	2:23am Matt from Springfield: G'night C.S.!
	2:24am Alejandroool: thanks for tunes Julie, you here til 3 or no
	🦇 2:25am Julie: yes here till 3!
	2:25am Matt from Springfield: KristEEN!
	🦇 2:30am Julie: I hope that at least when I fall into an 80s hole I don't play stuff that's TOO overplayed
	2:32am Matt from Springfield: If I haven't heard it, it's new to me! All of the Bottomless 80s Pit has been great tonight. Toy piano! And Dresden, I've been there!
	🦇 2:43am Julie: everybody disco!
	2:43am Matt from Springfield: Wouldn't be Dark Night without some Abba thrown in! :)
	🦇 2:44am Julie: so used to ending my show on an up..more strange at 3 am than at 6
	2:47am JakeGould: BAAB!
	2:49am slugluv1313: PERFECT! ABBA sliding into JIM CARROLL!
	🦇 2:50am Julie: LOL bizarre segues for 1000 alex
	2:50am P-90: Man, this beams me right back to 1980 or whenever it was. 1981?
	🦇 2:51am Julie: yep 1980
	2:51am Mert: I'm enjoying this program.
	🦇 2:51am Julie: thanks Matt so am I! I don't want to go!
	2:51am P-90: bikers/Rykers: one of the all-time classic rhymes
	🦇 2:51am Julie: oops sorry MERT
	2:52am P-90: Where the Hell did the three hours go?!
	🦇 2:54am Julie: thanks for listening guys! Be back Nov 24th in Irene's slot!
	2:54am Matt from Springfield: I'm content to let 3 hours get gobbled up, so long as they're this enjoyable! (After all, you could easily lose 3 hours for something much worse, so I'm fortunate tonight!)
	2:56am P-90: WHAT? Julie that's more than a whole month!!!! Is that Thanksgiving, or 2 days before or something...?
	2:57am Matt from Springfield: THANKS Julie! Always a pleazh to listen to Dark Night of the Soul! Thanks everyone who joined us tonight! Good Dark Night of the Soul! Have a great - Friday - everyone!
	2:58am JakeGould: Thanks Julie!

	12:35am C.S.: @Matt Pair this with Devo's Working in a Coal Mine. (Which had been used as the theme for the Fred Savage sitcom back in the day.)
	12:35am JakeGould: Wow. This “Five O’Clock World” cover is so weird.
	12:37am Matt from Springfield: @CS: You know I may have been thinking of that subconsciously! Similar themes, now in similar styles.
	12:38am C.S.: Nice transition with The Human League, Julie. @Matt Ya, that makes sense.
	12:41am JakeGould: Technically since this is before 3:00am, this is a “Dark Evening of the Soul” right?
	🦇 12:42am Julie: midnight is evening?
	12:43am JakeGould: @Julie: Compared to 3:00am being night, right?
	🦇 12:44am Julie: Well, sure, yeah!
	12:47am Matt from Springfield: Prime Time of the Soul, on WFMU 91! Playing all your favorite stax of wax!
	🦇 12:49am Julie: it's always 3am, all day every day
	12:55am Matt from Springfield: Yes the Vogues - and yes, Drew Carey!
	12:55am C.S.: "Bite me, doughboy!"
	12:59am Ike: Wait, are there people who DON'T follow weird TV shows?
	1:00am Matt from Springfield: @Ike: Those people are weird. Let's make a TV show about them!
	1:01am Matt from Springfield: Everyone will yield to Sabbath eventually.
	1:02am C.S.: Time to cleanse the palate.
	1:03am JakeGould: METS WIN! LOOK OUT CUBS!!!
	1:04am Ike: Even if Mr. Robot hadn't turned out to be good, I would've been impressed that somebody did a TV drama about something other than crime-fighters, spies, doctors, or lawyers.
	1:04am C.S.: www.youtube.com...
	1:04am Matt from Springfield: I just heard a good remix of Shirley Bassey's version of this song! Do you hear a familiar dolorose atmosphere in here?: " "If You Go Away" is an adaptation of the 1959 Jacques Brel song "Ne me quitte pas" with English lyrics by Rod McKuen." Seasons In The Sun was also a Rod McKuen translation of Brel.
	🦇 1:05am Julie: it was supposed to be a movie but he got really long winded
	1:08am P-90: Someone very smart who knew a lot about music once told me, if you put a Neil Diamond record on at a party, a lot of people are going to make casually deprecating remarks when the song starts, because Neil isn't "cool." But then, for the rest of the song, the same people just get real quiet, conversation stops in the room-- because everyone is LISTENING, including the ones who had to say something snarky at first....you know?
	🦇 1:08am Julie: My sister had Live at the Greek when I was little I liked it a lot
	1:10am JakeGould: @P-90: Same thing with Steely Dan. Also, if you are Jewish on any level and you grow up in NYC you will be listening to tons of Neil Diamond and Billy Joel whether you want to or not. Also, I found out in college that all of the orthodox kids consider Steely Dan to be really “out there”… It’s like Orthodox New Wave to listen to Steely Dan.
	1:12am P-90: Live at the Greek is a classic. And @Matt: Shirley B. can do no wrong in my book, and she seems to be especially re-mixable/mash-uppable, her stuff just translates
	1:12am Matt from Springfield: @Jake: Donald Fagen's already got the New Wave skinny-tie look: en.wikipedia.org...
	🦇 1:12am Julie: Orthodox New wave
	1:12am C.S.: Back in my youth I used to tune in a lot of commercial radio and for a time that included Neil Diamond. Now I just can't really listen to that stuff anymore. Now I'm lookng for what I haven't heard.
	1:13am Matt from Springfield: @P-90: No wrongs I agree! - EFD also agrees! The awards show that brought her to sing "Goldfinger" recently also agrees!
	1:14am Matt from Springfield: "re-mixable/mash-uppable", her voice itself has that je-ne-sais-quoi rhythm about it - it fits into different mixes well!
	1:14am JakeGould: @MattfromSpringfield: At the college newspaper there was this one Orthodox kid who would make sure to point out he was into Steely Dan when some of us talked about music… We were talking about Metallica, Depeche Mode and the Stone Roses so that “Dan” news kind of introduced me to a new level of, “Well… This is… What?”
	🦇 1:16am Summer and Michael: So glad to hear your fill-in tonight!
	🦇 1:17am Julie: thank you Summer & Michael!
	1:19am Matt from Springfield: "Yeah! Modern music! Secular! The Dan guys aren't even Orthodox!" Kind of like the old Catholic cardinal some years back who talked of the "demonic" influence in rock music from bands like The Eagles! ..Actually, that was prob worse!
	1:21am C.S.: Repent sinners! www.youtube.com...
	1:21am P-90: CS: of course a lot of that stuff that used to be on commercial radio was great. But they played it all to DEATH, and we're all here at 91.1 looking for what we haven't heard, or at least not heard as much. Steely Dan a great example: that band in its heyday had a lot of qualities that FMU DJ's and listeners would tend put a great deal of value on: musicianship, originality, inspired arrangement/production etc. But its one of they're favorite bands to hate on now and belittle. Because of the crushing overexposure for a couple of decades, a lot of people just can't listen to any of it any more. Ditto Fleetwood Mac and a slew of others.
	1:23am C.S.: @P-90 Yes. Used to listen to classic rock, oldies when they played do-wop, country, easy listening, 80s music. All played to death and I just can't listen to even the songs I liked for very long.
	1:24am C.S.: I wonder if I would like college / community radio if all the music was found in the mainstream and played to death
	1:26am Matt from Springfield: A Place Both Wonderful and Strange - gotta love these band/song/album titles you find!
	🦇 1:26am Julie: Niabi from Radiana is in this band
	1:26am P-90: That's part of what's so cool about shows like Spazz and Rex, even Michael Shelley or what Amanda Nazario does, they play "oldies", but not those same 50 "oldies" that WCBS or other "oldies format" stations play and play and play...
	1:28am C.S.: Nothing hurts my ears more than when I catch mainstream music on the PA system of a store or restaurant and can't get away.
	1:32am C.S.: I was just telling a friend that tuning into college / community radio is more intimate and requires you to be an active listener in order to track down all the obscure music.
	1:32am sugarwolf: @P-90: see, I feel like a total square because all the music fans/critics I know looooooove Steely Dan and Fleetwood Mac and I am just not interested in any of it
	1:34am JakeGould: @P-90: That said… There should be a band named, “Slew” and if they have a cover band, the band will be named “Slew of Others.”
	1:37am Matt from Springfield: Yeah, CTs! Garlands! Julie, play them again! Play them 4 times, we'll call it "Coct 2 Twin Spins! So nice x nice, we played it twice x twice"!!
	1:38am C.S.: Cocteau Quadruplets?
	🦇 1:38am Julie: Meghan and I need to do another 4AD show
	🦇 1:40am Julie: I'm having a really good time, are you guys having a good time?
	1:40am Alejandroool: Hello alllll
	1:40am C.S.: @Julie Heck, ya.
	🦇 1:41am Julie: hi there Alejandroot!
	1:41am Matt from Springfield: @CS: Why not! :) @Julie: Solicit vacation info from back-to-back DJs! Hell, trick them into both going on a 6 hour boat ride if need be and fill-in together with Meghan!
	1:42am Matt from Springfield: Good times, Jules! Thanks! :D
	1:43am C.S.: @Matt from Springfield :D
	1:43am Alejandroool: for a min I thought I had my days mixed up! phew, didn't lose a day in my mind....
	1:43am sugarwolf: @Julie: I should go to bed but your music choices are too enjoyable. Glad I have off from work tomorrow!
	🦇 1:43am Julie: I seem to have drifted back into the 80s. This is another Mr Robot track
	🦇 1:44am Julie: That's nice to hear sugarwolf, both things :)
	1:44am JakeGould: Keep on drifting into the 1980s!
	1:45am slugluv1313: good evening Julie and listeners! so lovely to hear The Cure right now
	🦇 1:45am Julie: hey there slugluv!
	1:45am Alejandroool: love slug!
	1:46am rw: Having a good time. Thanks for filling in tonight! Don't often have a chance to hear the Dark Night of the Soul!
	1:50am RS: What music could save a jersey guy in Albuquerque
	1:51am rw: Speaking of The Cure, I remember watching the video Staring at the Sea (I think that's what it's called) back in the mid '80s. It's a compilation of The Cure videos in chronological order. It's pretty fun to watch the transformation/progression of Robert Smith's hairstyle.
	1:52am Alejandroool: Ronnnnnnn?
	1:52am Matt from Springfield: Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me - always thought of this intro as unusual.
	1:53am Matt from Springfield: Ah, "crowd noises from the miners' strike"
	1:54am C.S.: Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me...then at some pint you just stop dreaming of it anymore. (That must be my inner goth talking.)
	1:54am C.S.: point
	🦇 1:54am Julie: if you have not seen, you must see thischarmingcharlie.tumblr.com
	1:57am C.S.: That kid was ahead of his time.
	1:57am Matt from Springfield: Match point, C.S.
	🦇 1:57am Julie: the smiths/charlie brown mashup is so perfect
	1:57am C.S.: s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...
	🦇 1:58am Julie: hahaha nice CS
	1:59am C.S.: :)
	1:59am Matt from Springfield: HA! That is great Julie! And, PERFECT follow up C.S.!
	2:00am slugluv1313: LOVE thischarmingcharlie -- PERFECT! now i am wondering if Charlie Brown's angst was somehow inspirational to The Smiths! and so many others, come to think of it . . . so alone, so young, so tragic! . . . WAY ahead of his time!
	2:01am Matt from Springfield: Laura Nyro, another singer I think can do no wrong. Even when her lyrics aren't the best...my God, how she SINGS them! She IS soul!
	2:01am JakeGould: 41.media.tumblr.com...
	2:01am slugluv1313: @ C.S. -- excellent, EXACTLY!
	2:03am Matt from Springfield: @slugluv: "Peanuts" was called by some critic to be both the first modern, and first post-modern comic.
	2:03am C.S.: @JakeGould :D
	2:05am slugluv1313: @ Matt from Springfield -- good point! when i was a kid, i would get her LPs from the local library -- knew most of the songs, but never just read the lyrics on their own (yup those were the days of lyric sheets!) . . . some of them would sound kinda "corny" but DAMN! when she sang them it was like the words were given life, depth, dimension -- like you say, total SOUL
	2:06am Matt from Springfield: Yes, I think "West End" shows for London. Tottenham Court Road, Regent Street etc.
	2:08am Matt from Springfield: All right slugluv, glad you also appreciate! :)
	2:17am C.S.: Got to go. Catch the rest on the archives. Great show as always, Julie. Fun talking with everyone on the comments board, too. Goodnight all.
	🦇 2:18am Julie: thanks for listening CS!

	🦇 2:25am Julie: yes here till 3!
	2:25am Matt from Springfield: KristEEN!
	🦇 2:30am Julie: I hope that at least when I fall into an 80s hole I don't play stuff that's TOO overplayed
	2:32am Matt from Springfield: If I haven't heard it, it's new to me! All of the Bottomless 80s Pit has been great tonight. Toy piano! And Dresden, I've been there!
	🦇 2:43am Julie: everybody disco!
	2:43am Matt from Springfield: Wouldn't be Dark Night without some Abba thrown in! :)
	🦇 2:44am Julie: so used to ending my show on an up..more strange at 3 am than at 6
	2:47am JakeGould: BAAB!
	2:49am slugluv1313: PERFECT! ABBA sliding into JIM CARROLL!
	🦇 2:50am Julie: LOL bizarre segues for 1000 alex

	2:52am P-90: Where the Hell did the three hours go?!
	🦇 2:54am Julie: thanks for listening guys! Be back Nov 24th in Irene's slot!
	2:54am Matt from Springfield: I'm content to let 3 hours get gobbled up, so long as they're this enjoyable! (After all, you could easily lose 3 hours for something much worse, so I'm fortunate tonight!)
	2:56am P-90: WHAT? Julie that's more than a whole month!!!! Is that Thanksgiving, or 2 days before or something...?
	2:57am Matt from Springfield: THANKS Julie! Always a pleazh to listen to Dark Night of the Soul! Thanks everyone who joined us tonight! Good Dark Night of the Soul! Have a great - Friday - everyone!
