	9:05am Will: Nice to have the day off so I can listen to Surface Noise unencumbered by having to do my job.
	9:06am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Still reeling that Carl Stalling was just doing Raymond...
	9:08am melinda: hi Joe! I like the Tobacco Auctioneer. Don Byron included a version on his Bug Music, haven't thought about it in a while.
	9:08am annie: i seeking a flag-free zone this morning.... is it safe?
	👻 9:11am Webhamster Henry: I haven't heard Celery Stalks for many years!
	9:12am zopa: Oh Boy! Swing it Joe!
	9:15am Joe McG: Hi, everybody, and welcome to the show. Starting with a gentle swing today, but we'll go other places. Hope you'll stick around.
	9:16am zopa: One of these day's, Joe... Bang! Zoom! To the moon!
	9:20am JtotheK: Hi everyone. Enjoying this set, Joe!
	9:20am Joe McG: @zopa: Alice, you're the greatest.
	9:22am Joe McG: @JtotheK: Glad to be with you this morning!
	👻 9:22am Brian in UK: Hey Joe. I bought the 'Brown' album of this set recently.
	9:24am Joe McG: @Brian: Cool! I didn't know they sold the records separately!
	👻 9:24am Brian in UK: Neither did I!
	👻 9:27am Ken From Hyde Park: Hi, Joe. Any Cab Calloway coming to the surface this morning?
	9:30am Karen in Sleepy Hollow: Good Morning everyone! Nice swing and swagger Joe
	9:32am Sem Chumbo: I miss Garcia.
	👻 9:33am Brian in UK: Hello Sem, does the sun shine on you?
	9:34am Sem Chumbo: Intermittently, BiUK, something of a backward Spring, as the locals would have it. There?
	👻 9:36am tadpoles: I know what a Moa is but a Moax! Maybe 10 Moas.
	👻 9:38am Brian in UK: Been baking hot for a few days, now changeable to say the least.
	9:38am zopa: A complete loser; someone who just drifts through life bungling everything. Expression was common in the 1940s and best remembered as used by Jackie Gleason as "Ralph Kramden" on the "Honeymooners". "No matter what I do, I don't get anywhere. I'm just a moax." #loser#stupid#fool#underachiever#dope
	9:38am dale: i wonder if there is ANYTHING on the cher/gregg album that is ear worthy
	9:38am Tomophobic Tom from Detroit: Votes I'm no Angel
	9:38am John in Bklyn: Moax was used on the Honeymoners... oh, @zopa got it!
	9:40am Joe McG: @zopa: Thanks, that's exactly what I needed to know.
	9:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: ...'c'mon & let me show you my tattoo'...had to love 'im...
	9:40am John in Bklyn: Reminds me of "mook" which was in Mean Streets.
	👻 9:40am Ken From Hyde Park: No worries about Cab Calloway. If the Blues Brothers movie comes on, I can see and hear him.
	9:42am Joe McG: @John: I love the word "mook" for some reason.
	9:44am John in Bklyn: In Mean Streets the character says, 'What's a mook?! You can't call me a mook.' haha
	9:49am Sem Chumbo: Look! A mook! In Canadian, these words rhyme.
	9:49am zopa: Anyone know if Gregg Allman ever covered the Beatles?
	9:49am Joe McG: @Sem: Ha ha ha!
	9:50am melinda: I love this version of All the Pretty Little Horses.
	9:53am Joe McG: @zopa: I don't think so, but maybe this will do!
	9:53am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 22 years ago...my CD store employee promo-snatchin' days...ah man...
	👻 9:53am tadpoles: Nice Joe.
	9:55am zopa: Thanks Lonesome Joe!
	9:55am Tomophobic Tom from Detroit: Great stuff
	9:57am Joe McG: @zopa: My pleasure.
	👻 9:59am Brian in UK: Really would like to see Kevin Morby but like a lot of artists they only seem to play festivals in the Summer. Field Day is a one off but I like small venues. That reminds me must book for John Murry.
	10:04am dfb: if one needs a single fav meat puppet song you would do well to choose up on the sun
	10:04am Joe McG: @Brian: He played Montgomery Hall a few months ago and was quite good live!
	10:07am Joe McG: @dfb: Agree!
	10:08am judy from croton: Hi all. I love surface noise. It's the deep noise that bothers me. Oh boy. Television! Takes me back to turquoise-painted floors on elizabeth street.
	10:09am Joe McG: Thanks for saying hello, judy, great to have you along!
	10:10am Alice Formato: Good Morning Joe, Happy Memorial Day:)
	10:11am Joe McG: Thanks, Alice F! To you as well!
	10:14am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Most people want to be on Television. But the only people worth knowing are the ones that want to be in Television.
	10:16am Joe McG: @rr63: I love how that one ends. Snip!
	👻 10:17am tadpoles: Got some Television Personalities Joe?
	10:18am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Not a bad idea, but this damn song is nearly over!
	👻 10:19am tadpoles: The wonderful 3 minute pop song Joe.
	10:19am Mike Sin: Well, no bathing suit today, but the stereo is loud and the coffee is hot, so I'm in for the long haul with Joe McG this morning!
	10:20am Joe McG: @tadpoles: That first album is gem after gem. @Mike Sin: Hello, sir! Glad you can join me, even if the beach isn't an option today.
	10:20am herb.nyc: Wotta dope I be, Kevin Morby played Monty Hall in march and Bowery Ballroom last wk. I didn't go. Ugh. -hi joe and all
	10:21am ChrisB.: See you in Asbury Park on Thursday, Joe!
	10:22am Joe McG: I'll be there, Chris! Thanks again for the tip!
	10:31am annie: well, on the "chat" with tracfone "customer service" ... only half-listening..
	10:31am BennettCap: This is one of my favorites.
	10:32am Jeezy: Meat Puppets were AMAZEBALLS couple weeks ago at Brooklyn Bowl! Mike Watt, too. But they played Up On The Sun, a tad too fast. There, i said it.
	10:32am annie: so far it sounds great
	10:32am judy from croton: memorial day. These last 2 songs were favorites of a good friend that left the building way too early
	10:33am Jeezy: Grant Hart opened. He is 56 but you could have told me he was 86 and I'd have believed you.
	10:33am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe and people! My traveling is done so I'm kinda good with a chill, cloudy Memorial Day.
	10:35am John in Bklyn: @Jeezy Oooh, man, that's sad. Grant did some hard livin'. Meanwhile Bob Mould is aging in reverse.
	10:37am Jeezy: Yeah, that's the Devil H for ya. Meat Puppets had Curt's 31 year old son on guitar!
	10:38am herb.nyc: I saw Penn / Oldham show at bklyn' St Ann's church (montague st.); they subbed for a cancelled James Carr, back in the '90s. Lovely show. .-- friend said Meat P at Brooklyn Bowl was indeed great.
	10:39am Joe McG: Howdy, Greg! Hope you had a great weekend! Herb, jealous I missed that one.
	10:46am paul: Happy 100th, JFK.
	10:48am Susan C.: Adding "Bethlehem Steel" to my roster of songs about home. Thanks!
	10:48am james f: mornin, joe! great to be able to listen with the day off
	10:49am Joe McG: You bet, Susan! Glad to hear you have the day off, james! Thanks for tuning in.
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aerosmith - not that stoopid arrogant simple cockrawk again ...taps foot...
	10:52am John in Bklyn: Wow, this was a single for Aerosmith?! I love this tune. I'm back in 9th grade... with headphones on... stoned...
	10:53am steve: hey Joe! its great to be able to catch your show! i love Single File.
	10:54am Joe McG: @John: It's the B of "Last Child," the side they were pitching, which was a #21 hit!
	10:54am Joe McG: Thanks for tuning in, steve!
	10:55am John in Bklyn: Oh, that makes sense. I had the 8-track! haha
	10:58am Michele: Hi Joe! I just woke up!
	10:59am Joe McG: Michele, you slugabed! :)
	👻 10:59am tadpoles: Great to hear Fashion thanks Joe. Saw them open for the Only Ones in London...very under-rated band and definitely not heard enough. Thanks!
	11:00am Michele: What did you call me?!
	11:00am paul: The pride of Glenbard West HS (Laurie A.)
	11:02am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Wow, that line about crows pecking out somebody's eyes is intense! Sounds like an amazing show, wish I could've seen The Only Ones. @Michele: Ha ha ha! I could've said "sluggard" instead.
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Looks like the parade here was cancelled because of raindrops. Good thing I checked the website and didn't miss any surface noise.
	11:03am phat: thank you now for the Laurie A.
	11:04am Joe McG: @Ken: Yes, Ken, you would've missed this terribly sad song about America.
	11:06am northguineahills: Laurie Anderson sounds always great on a Monday morning!
	11:08am steve: howd that fit on a 7??
	11:12am paul: J.A.L.N. stands for "Just another lonely night".
	11:14am paul: http://www.disco-funk.co.uk/disco-funk/ShowArtist.asp?dirletter=j&textkey=j%5Cjaln_ban
	11:17am Joe McG: Thanks, paul! @steve: It's a 33 1/3, although a couple of years earlier Meat Loaf actually crammed an 8-minute track on a single at 45!
	11:18am paul: You're welcome. The magic of technology!
	11:19am zopa: Joe, i recommend Clannad's version of "Morning Dew"
	11:19am Joe McG: @paul: Still trying to cope with that! @zopa: Excellent, thanks for the recommendation!
	11:20am paul: :)
	👻 11:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Gregg Allman set on Circle Time a few hours ago: www.wfmu.org...
	11:27am judy from croton: Waxing nostalgic. JFK stadium, 1973? Dead/Allmans all day, all night. My father waited up. That wasn't pretty.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a great ethos that was - to play til dawn.
	11:29am judy from croton: Could've done w/o Allmans.
	11:30am Joe McG: Ha ha, judy, I hope the Dead was worth it, anyway. I'm more Allmans than Grateful.
	11:32am toni braxton: great set. i knew a woman named jessica blue who said the allman brothers wrote jessica for her because she talked so much they wanted to write a song with no words and dedicate it to her.
	11:32am SeanG: always dug that song "I'm no Angel"
	11:33am Joe McG: @toni: Ha ha ha! Great story.
	11:34am phat: I gotta re-iterate just how great it was to hear Laurie Anderson this morning. She changed my life in many ways and that single, that single...
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love this about their cultural impact : m.facebook.com...
	11:35am Joe McG: @phat: Glad you enjoyed hearing it, phat! I love that record and the B-side, too!
	11:35am toni braxton: its super, man. also i like all her stuff even sharkeys
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Superman' still arresting. Such a great & successful meeting of Pop & Avant.
	11:36am Mike VL: Beautiful set, Joe.
	11:38am zopa: hey joe, turns out he covered "rain". it's on the Dreams box set.
	11:38am toni braxton: i met laurie anderson and lou reed in art gallery near soho like a year before lou died. when i shook his hand it was super leathery
	11:39am TimBk: I love how Greg changed the last line in These Days. 6 wives and 6 divorces and countless rehab stays, it's very fitting...
	11:39am Joe McG: @Mike: Great to see you, sir! @zopa: Wow, neato. @TimBk: He was aware of his faults most definitely.
	👻 11:39am Ken From Hyde Park: One time, I found Allman Brothers' "Seven Turns" on a juke box. Proceeded to play it.
	11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So they share a tune w/ Nico. That Joys track had 'Rain' influence all over it.
	11:42am John in Bklyn: Great show, Joe! So nice to be able to listen on a holiday and not have to rush off to work. btw: I laughed about the Aerosmith/KISS connection. I'm from NEPA and had the same experience c. 1977-79. I was too cool for Frampton but not cool enough (yet) for punk!
	11:43am SeanG: beaverteeth!
	11:45am phat: There doesn't seem to be a sub culture like the cold 70s and 80s avant garde anymore. I feel like the world misses that.
	11:46am phat: Also, I was very much a KISS man at the same time as you, Joe. It could not be avoided.
	11:46am toni braxton: some groups maybe sounded like allmans afterwards but none attained such musical heights, with the two genius guitar players, amazing songwriting and sound, and gregg's vocals
	11:51am Joe McG: @phat: ha ha, it really couldn't!
	11:51am Sem Chumbo: Thanks. Joe, enjoyed the whole schmeer. Off now to read the Big Book of Mooks. Later!
	11:52am Joe McG: @sem: Thanks for sticking with me through all my changes, Sem! :)
	11:55am zopa: thanks for the tunes joe.
	11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! Have a nice day off, if you have one! See you next time.
	👻 11:57am tadpoles: As usual you have made my Monday...thanks Joe. Cheers.
	11:58am patrick321: Hey Joe, thanks for a really great show. I've been listening on long drive home this am. Nice selection for Gregg Allman and in regard to that, if you have some time check the web for some interesting background on "These Days" — on the LP notes Browne thanks Gregg for the arrangement, which was a new one and quite different from the song's first recording by Nico.
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe
	👻 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. Off to nuke some hot dogs I barbecued yesterday.
	11:43am Parq: Hi, Joe. Nice little Gregg set. I really haven't been a Brothers fan for a long time,. and pretty much the only thing of theirs that I can get worked up about is the Fillmore take of "Elizabeth Reed". But Gregg's been a part of the scene -- a part of my life, really -- for so long that I can't help but be affected by his death.

	10:33am Jeezy: Grant Hart opened. He is 56 but you could have told me he was 86 and I'd have believed you.
	10:33am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning Joe and people! My traveling is done so I'm kinda good with a chill, cloudy Memorial Day.
	10:35am John in Bklyn: @Jeezy Oooh, man, that's sad. Grant did some hard livin'. Meanwhile Bob Mould is aging in reverse.
	10:37am Jeezy: Yeah, that's the Devil H for ya. Meat Puppets had Curt's 31 year old son on guitar!
	10:38am herb.nyc: I saw Penn / Oldham show at bklyn' St Ann's church (montague st.); they subbed for a cancelled James Carr, back in the '90s. Lovely show. .-- friend said Meat P at Brooklyn Bowl was indeed great.
	10:39am Joe McG: Howdy, Greg! Hope you had a great weekend! Herb, jealous I missed that one.
	10:46am paul: Happy 100th, JFK.
	10:48am Susan C.: Adding "Bethlehem Steel" to my roster of songs about home. Thanks!
	10:48am james f: mornin, joe! great to be able to listen with the day off
	10:49am Joe McG: You bet, Susan! Glad to hear you have the day off, james! Thanks for tuning in.
	10:51am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Aerosmith - not that stoopid arrogant simple cockrawk again ...taps foot...
	10:52am John in Bklyn: Wow, this was a single for Aerosmith?! I love this tune. I'm back in 9th grade... with headphones on... stoned...
	10:53am steve: hey Joe! its great to be able to catch your show! i love Single File.
	10:54am Joe McG: @John: It's the B of "Last Child," the side they were pitching, which was a #21 hit!
	10:54am Joe McG: Thanks for tuning in, steve!
	10:55am John in Bklyn: Oh, that makes sense. I had the 8-track! haha
	10:58am Michele: Hi Joe! I just woke up!
	10:59am Joe McG: Michele, you slugabed! :)
	👻 10:59am tadpoles: Great to hear Fashion thanks Joe. Saw them open for the Only Ones in London...very under-rated band and definitely not heard enough. Thanks!
	11:00am Michele: What did you call me?!
	11:00am paul: The pride of Glenbard West HS (Laurie A.)
	11:02am Joe McG: @tadpoles: Wow, that line about crows pecking out somebody's eyes is intense! Sounds like an amazing show, wish I could've seen The Only Ones. @Michele: Ha ha ha! I could've said "sluggard" instead.
	👻 11:03am Ken From Hyde Park: Looks like the parade here was cancelled because of raindrops. Good thing I checked the website and didn't miss any surface noise.
	11:03am phat: thank you now for the Laurie A.
	11:04am Joe McG: @Ken: Yes, Ken, you would've missed this terribly sad song about America.
	11:06am northguineahills: Laurie Anderson sounds always great on a Monday morning!
	11:08am steve: howd that fit on a 7??
	11:12am paul: J.A.L.N. stands for "Just another lonely night".
	11:14am paul: http://www.disco-funk.co.uk/disco-funk/ShowArtist.asp?dirletter=j&textkey=j%5Cjaln_ban
	11:17am Joe McG: Thanks, paul! @steve: It's a 33 1/3, although a couple of years earlier Meat Loaf actually crammed an 8-minute track on a single at 45!
	11:18am paul: You're welcome. The magic of technology!
	11:19am zopa: Joe, i recommend Clannad's version of "Morning Dew"
	11:19am Joe McG: @paul: Still trying to cope with that! @zopa: Excellent, thanks for the recommendation!
	11:20am paul: :)
	👻 11:21am Ken From Hyde Park: Gregg Allman set on Circle Time a few hours ago: www.wfmu.org...
	11:27am judy from croton: Waxing nostalgic. JFK stadium, 1973? Dead/Allmans all day, all night. My father waited up. That wasn't pretty.
	11:28am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: What a great ethos that was - to play til dawn.
	11:29am judy from croton: Could've done w/o Allmans.
	11:30am Joe McG: Ha ha, judy, I hope the Dead was worth it, anyway. I'm more Allmans than Grateful.
	11:32am toni braxton: great set. i knew a woman named jessica blue who said the allman brothers wrote jessica for her because she talked so much they wanted to write a song with no words and dedicate it to her.
	11:32am SeanG: always dug that song "I'm no Angel"
	11:33am Joe McG: @toni: Ha ha ha! Great story.
	11:34am phat: I gotta re-iterate just how great it was to hear Laurie Anderson this morning. She changed my life in many ways and that single, that single...
	11:35am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Love this about their cultural impact : m.facebook.com...
	11:35am Joe McG: @phat: Glad you enjoyed hearing it, phat! I love that record and the B-side, too!
	11:35am toni braxton: its super, man. also i like all her stuff even sharkeys
	11:36am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: 'Superman' still arresting. Such a great & successful meeting of Pop & Avant.
	11:36am Mike VL: Beautiful set, Joe.
	11:38am zopa: hey joe, turns out he covered "rain". it's on the Dreams box set.
	11:38am toni braxton: i met laurie anderson and lou reed in art gallery near soho like a year before lou died. when i shook his hand it was super leathery
	11:39am TimBk: I love how Greg changed the last line in These Days. 6 wives and 6 divorces and countless rehab stays, it's very fitting...
	11:39am Joe McG: @Mike: Great to see you, sir! @zopa: Wow, neato. @TimBk: He was aware of his faults most definitely.
	👻 11:39am Ken From Hyde Park: One time, I found Allman Brothers' "Seven Turns" on a juke box. Proceeded to play it.
	11:40am Revolution Rabbit Nov63: So they share a tune w/ Nico. That Joys track had 'Rain' influence all over it.
	11:42am John in Bklyn: Great show, Joe! So nice to be able to listen on a holiday and not have to rush off to work. btw: I laughed about the Aerosmith/KISS connection. I'm from NEPA and had the same experience c. 1977-79. I was too cool for Frampton but not cool enough (yet) for punk!
	11:43am SeanG: beaverteeth!
	11:45am phat: There doesn't seem to be a sub culture like the cold 70s and 80s avant garde anymore. I feel like the world misses that.
	11:46am phat: Also, I was very much a KISS man at the same time as you, Joe. It could not be avoided.
	11:46am toni braxton: some groups maybe sounded like allmans afterwards but none attained such musical heights, with the two genius guitar players, amazing songwriting and sound, and gregg's vocals
	11:51am Joe McG: @phat: ha ha, it really couldn't!
	11:51am Sem Chumbo: Thanks. Joe, enjoyed the whole schmeer. Off now to read the Big Book of Mooks. Later!
	11:52am Joe McG: @sem: Thanks for sticking with me through all my changes, Sem! :)
	11:55am zopa: thanks for the tunes joe.
	11:56am Joe McG: Thanks for listening and commenting, everybody! Have a nice day off, if you have one! See you next time.
	👻 11:57am tadpoles: As usual you have made my Monday...thanks Joe. Cheers.
	11:58am patrick321: Hey Joe, thanks for a really great show. I've been listening on long drive home this am. Nice selection for Gregg Allman and in regard to that, if you have some time check the web for some interesting background on "These Days" — on the LP notes Browne thanks Gregg for the arrangement, which was a new one and quite different from the song's first recording by Nico.
	11:59am Brendan: Thanks Joe
	👻 11:59am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks, Joe. Off to nuke some hot dogs I barbecued yesterday.
	11:43am Parq: Hi, Joe. Nice little Gregg set. I really haven't been a Brothers fan for a long time,. and pretty much the only thing of theirs that I can get worked up about is the Fillmore take of "Elizabeth Reed". But Gregg's been a part of the scene -- a part of my life, really -- for so long that I can't help but be affected by his death.
