	9:28am Rev. Turnip Druid: FOKES!
	9:29am Rev. Turnip Druid: It only hurts when I läufer.
	9:29am steveo: "In 1936, The New York Times reported that Ned Sparks had his face insured for USD$100,000 with Lloyd's of London."
	9:30am steveo: but what about his voice?
	9:31am Joe McG: @steveo: Ha ha ha! You can't have one without the other. Honorable Mention: Lee Tracy.
	9:31am Lixiviated Life: $100K for THAT mug?
	9:33am BronwynB: i love ned sparks. i took a global cinema class at cornell and we watched gold diggers of 1933. how we laughed at ned sparks, and called him squidward. then a few weeks later we were watching imitation of life and there's this part where a dark figure is lurking outside the main character's restaurant, and it takes forever for him to finally emerge from the shadows, and it was none other than ned sparks, who says in that voice of his, "SOME RAIN!" it was pandemonium, we fucking died laughing, i don't know why it was so funny but it was.
	9:34am Joe McG: "SOME rain!" Ha ha, I love it.
	9:35am Joe McG: Did anyone catch any of the Lubitsch festival at Film Forum? So great. I always forget how fun (and subversive) "Design for Living" is until I see it again.
	9:41am Joe McG: I guess none of you did!
	9:41am Ike: Oh, School Damage, what an unoriginal song! South Park already did it! Ha ha. No no srsly that was great.
	9:41am steveo: I'll have to look up Lee Tracy. I am digging this Fruit Vert. APparently paon is french for peacock. Pain perdu, of course is french toast. So it's funny/punny.
	9:43am Joe McG: @Ike: Ha ha! @steveo: Thanks for the translation. I was wondering why there were peacocks on the cover.
	9:52am melinda: Loved that set! Must transit to work, will resume soon!
	9:52am Brendan: Yay Jim Price! Nobody likes interruptions in the bed.
	9:58am Joe McG: Ha ha, yes, Brendan. Thanks, Jim P!
	9:59am Guido from Cologne: Hello Joe!
	9:59am Joe McG: Howdy, Guido!
	10:02am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Wow this a great song....is it new or early 90s?
	10:03am Joe McG: @Jeff: That's about 1992, that one.
	10:04am Vincent Nifigance: "Wow this a great song....is it new or early 90s?" an increasingly commonplace statement.
	👻 10:04am doctorjazz: Hi all! Liked the Mojo Men short on Wake and Bake this morning, Joe!
	10:04am Guido from Cologne: Seen a concert by The Bats quite recently! (reffering to Flying Nun)
	10:05am Parq: Okay, I need that Flying Nun comp.
	10:06am Parq: Been wanting to hear a rockin' version of Mama Mia -- one of the greatest pop songs ever -- for years.
	10:06am annie: sorry to be late, just in time, though, for mama mia!
	10:06am Joe McG: Thanks, doctor! I'm going to try to do one of those per week for the Pidge. @Guido: Here's some Bats for you! Hi, annie!
	10:08am Vincent Nifigance: @Joe McG Sunspotz was awesome, too.
	10:09am Joe McG: Many thanks, Vincent! I might play the song again on my show in case folks missed it. I have it with me.
	10:10am Guido from Cologne: :-)
	10:10am Tim 07030: "I haven't been this excited about a show since The Bats!" - overheard by me several years back as I entered a show by The Clean at Maxwell's, and I remember it because it might have been the most maxwells-y thing ever uttered.
	10:12am Joe McG: @Tim: You are the man who would know!
	10:14am Vincent Nifigance: @Joe Please do, I could definitely go for that again.
	10:14am annie: hey joe second payment went through fine. i guess we're a go, then.
	10:15am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!
	👻 10:16am doctorjazz: @Parq (10:05)...me too!
	10:17am Irene Trudel: I love me some Verlaines. Thanks Joe!
	10:17am JakeGould: Good morning, Joe! Also, Dominick @9:26… Senor Wences smiles upon you.
	10:17am MD: It's a hot Sticky Day here in the swamps of Jersey! Good Morning Freeeform Play GroundZ!!!
	10:17am Joe McG: Heya, Greg! Heya, Irene! Heya, Jake!
	10:18am Irene Trudel: Oh, and The Bats live at WFMU! I think I lent them my blue Alvarez guitar to play on that one.
	10:18am Uncle Michael: Good morning from my one-man recovery ward. I hope to get released this afternoon. At least this facility has all my stuff.
	10:19am steveo: storms coming tonight; lower humidity tomorrow
	10:19am Joe McG: Heal up, Uncle Michael! Hi, MD! Wow, Irene, that's so cool that you were at that session.
	10:19am steveo: it was raining on the night she left
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Joe. This afternoon they remove the bandages and I find out if I now have Claude Rains' leg.
	10:22am Uncle Michael: Aww, Bill Dana has left us.
	10:22am andrewb: for a second i thought that King Loser track was Lee and Nancy
	10:23am Irene Trudel: Joe, i think I engineer that Bats session. It was back at the 580 Springdale studio.
	10:23am Joe McG: @andrewb: Good morning! I have a feeling that's what they were going for.
	10:24am Joe McG: @Irene: The back of the record says Brad Morrison, but I never heard of him.
	10:24am Irene Trudel: andrewb, I thought the same thing. I hadn't been looking at the playlist till then and just had to look it up. I missed a lotta great stuff this morning.
	10:25am Summer and Michael: Loving this set! Great show, as ever, Joe!
	10:25am Irene Trudel: Maybe it's my faulty memory then. But I definitely was there with the guitar.
	10:25am Joe McG: @S&M: Thanks as always!
	10:27am Joe McG: Let's try that again!
	10:27am Uncle Michael: I believed it the first time. It was a bubblegum classic.
	10:29am steveo: ditto on the bubblegum; pulling up some feelings today, eh, Joe?
	10:30am Joe McG: @steveo: Some sneaky ones.
	10:35am steveo: ha; I had not noticed the artist's name
	10:38am Brendan: Thanks for the redux Joe. Something about sunny pop's corny innocence makes me feel good.
	10:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Wait, is this song about Jesus?
	10:40am Joe McG: You bet, Brendan! @Greg: If Jesus is a shapely gal, yes!
	10:41am Parq: Yes, I did sleep late today, thanks, so much obliged for the encore presentation.
	10:43am Joe McG: @Parq: My pleasure! Van Dyke Parks' arrangement is worth hearing over and over.
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Uncle, get well soon. "The Invisible mans outside" "Tell him I can't see him."
	👻 10:47am Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, Bow Wow Wow! Annabella rules!
	10:47am Itzall Ablurr: Sometimes Annabella's vocals kind of remind me of Liza Minnelli, in a good way.
	10:47am Parq: I see what you did there.
	10:47am melinda: Nice segue!
	10:47am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Brian. I'm doing fine.
	10:48am Passaic River Blues: @Ken: there's something about Annabella's voice--when it works it's crazy good.
	👻 10:48am tadpoles: Hi Joe..cursed having to work and miss your Kiwi set. Look forward to the archive to enjoy it, especially the Bats live @ FMU. PS nice morph from BWW to the Strangeloves. Cheers.
	10:48am melinda: @itzall I know what you mean.
	10:49am Joe McG: @parq and melinda and tadpoles: Slick, huh? ha ha
	10:49am larry from westwood: Great "work from home" music
	10:51am Joe McG: Heya, larry, glad you're tuned in. You too, Itzall.
	10:52am BronwynB: this is such a great song
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Never was a single buyer but I remember getting Drive by this lot.
	10:53am steveo: '78, and yet so 80s.
	10:54am The Oscar: The Cars are one of those bands I always forget that I like until I actually hear them.
	10:54am steveo: '78, and yet so 45.
	👻 10:55am doctorjazz: Same, Just What I Needed is great, turned my surly 18 year old on to this (generally likes punk/metal/scream).
	10:56am Greg from ZONE 5: YES! I had this random funk comp on cassette in high school and this was on it. Learning to drive was pretty much all funk and Pavement.
	10:57am Joe McG: @Greg: I don't know how you managed to drive while shaking your booty to this.
	10:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Luckily my parents' '86 Corolla had automatic funk stabilization.
	10:59am Vincent Nifigance: Thanks for the Creedence.
	11:00am Uncle Michael: Loved that Cameo. "what's that, the bus stop?"
	11:00am Joe McG: @Greg: HA HA HA
	11:02am frozen_peas: fantastic single file today
	11:02am Joe McG: Why, thank, frozen_peas! Welcome to the show.
	11:05am Brendan: Ahh the Jim Price remastered Kevin Ayers
	11:09am selloutscharpling: 14 year olds are legal in half the EU. Too bad Americans are forced to get used up grannies.
	11:11am Carmichael: Heya 1st Monday Joe. Hope all enjoyed their Father's Day yesterday.
	11:13am Doctor B: I tuned in just in time to hear you mention Negativland, but not to hear the details. Is there a special program coming up that deals with The Four Floptops, as some people call them?
	11:14am Dean: Why did I think Peter Perrett was dead? (He isn't.) I'm confusing him with somebody. Not TV Smith... Help?
	11:16am herb.nyc: hi joe and all, oh, that's why i heard wfmu play Nick Drake about 6hrs ago (i woke to pee). --- TV SMITH: i'm sure he's very very alive (i know the man who helps / books him when he plays in USandA)
	11:18am Joe McG: @Doctor B: Yes, tonight at 6 Vicki talks about Don Joyce's radio show. @Dean: It's amazing that he's still alive, but he is!
	11:19am herb.nyc: as you had a NEW ZEALAND thread earlier (i missed it), joe, i see that the NY Public Library keeps "news clippings" on the band. most likely at the lincoln center branch; i'll have to ask them how they choose the bands for such a purpose.
	11:19am Claw!: Yoooo Joey Joe Joe Ahoy hoy, good people
	11:20am Itzall Ablurr: Great show so far, as always!
	11:21am Joe McG: Ahoy, Claw! Thanks, Itzall!
	11:21am Greg from ZONE 5: Gorgeous I keep hearing "Children go where I send thee…"
	11:22am Joe McG: @Greg: Wow, Greg, I like that.
	11:22am Michael 98145: like riding the rails
	11:23am Carmichael: Daddy loves his Nick Drake.
	11:25am Mick: Draaaaaaging myself through a steamy, swampy Monday. This show is providing much-needed help. Thanks for the Nick Drake
	11:27am Joe McG: You bet, Mick! Wish he'd made it.
	11:27am annie: i tend to have a difficult time slogging through long tribute song-cycles... but nick drake, well, this is lovley. just lovely; Play On!!
	11:28am Michael 98145: what annie said
	11:29am Roberto: Did he just say "Pootnam?"
	11:30am Tim 07030: I can't hear All My Trials and not think of Elvis. But who cares, it's severethunderstormpalooza!
	11:30am herb.nyc: that's a long list? was it till 4.15pm? -- Pootnam? in french, fart is "prout", said "proot". fyi.
	11:31am Joe McG: Yes, everyone, please watch the skies....or die!
	11:31am Roberto: And whatever you do, stay away from Pootnam!
	11:31am KP: I used to have a four-disc Nick Drake boot I DL'd and assembled, inserts and all. None of that stuff made the move
	11:32am Planet Tyler: I had no idea elton john did a bunch of nick drake covers. And i can't believe i dont totally hate it.
	11:32am βrian: Scattered Late Romantic clouds over the isthmus today. Cool, breezy, and beautiful.
	11:32am Joe McG: OH, KP! How sad. @Roberto: POOTnam is trouble!
	11:33am herb.nyc: my sis turned me on to Elton via (self-titled) and Tumbleweed Connection. when i bought Goodbye Yellow Brick Road ($5.99, alexander's dept store at kings plaza) i was hooked. so i'd love to hear this: www.rollingstone.com...
	11:34am Joe McG: @Tyler: Early Elton John is sometimes quite nice and I like his Nick covers. Wish someone had had a hit with a Nick song. Might've made all the difference.
	11:36am Dennis Diken: digging the show Joe! I never heard those Elton demos neither. Elton, for the most part, was a great singles artist, methinks
	👻 11:36am Brian in UK: Elton's support at the Troubadour was David Ackles. Who?
	11:37am annie: richard dawson 'aminds me of what'sisname, the guy that wrote howl. i'll know the name by the time this is up on the screen.
	11:37am Wendy del Formaggio: Hey there, Joe. I'm quite late to the show, but here I am anyway. Is this really Richard Dawson, aka the creepy former host of "Family Feud"? "Stop kissing me, you gross old man!"
	11:38am Joe McG: @Dennis: Thanks! Yes, they are very nice versions, I think. Very much adapted to his voice; he made them work for him. I'm partial to a couple of Elton LPs (particularly "Madman" and "Tumbleweed"), but I agree that he's strongest on his singles for the most part.
	11:38am Marc Francis: Damn. What a song!
	👻 11:38am Brian in UK: Elton used to do a lot of those Telstar or whoever covers albums over here.
	11:38am Joe McG: @Wendy: Alas, poor Richard. We miss him.
	11:39am βrian: Different Dawson: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:39am steveo: Wendy, no. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Beautiful tunes from, I assume, the ghost of TV's Richard Dawson.
	11:40am steveo: jinx!
	11:41am Cliff in Prague: That Richard Dawson song was amazing. Never heard him before.
	11:42am zopa: hi joe. i notice you haven't played any Nilsson today. i'm not judging... just say'n... what's a day without ol' Harry?
	11:42am Joe McG: @Cliff: He's quite a singer-songwriter. Worth investigating!
	11:42am Greg from ZONE 5: Ben Richards: "Killian…I'll be back." Damon Killian: "Only in a re-run."
	11:43am annie: allen ginsberg!! i actually had to look it up.. i sure hope that file can be found another time
	11:43am Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, thanks, friends. I like this Richard Dawson much better. What an interesting story he has, and that was a lovely song.
	11:43am Joe McG: @zopa: Don't want to overwork the fella. I see he was pretty popular on the station last week!
	11:44am Joe McG: @annie: His record of Blake bits has just been reissued, but I haven't heard it yet.
	11:45am herb.nyc: aside, i just sent this commie pinko fag article to the Lower East Side Ecology Center, with excerpts: www.villagevoice.com... Filastine and Nova believe that the constraints of nationalism and global capitalism enslave the human race; their album title presupposes that many will call them crazy because their art advocates the need to abandon both systems. The ever-expanding suite of music and videos tied to Drapetomania makes one wonder what might happen if this multimedia project got as much press and exposure as Beyoncé’s Lemonade — and given the diverse sources of inspiration for Lemonade, it wouldn’t surprise me if… The desire to imagine and live a better life. Yet Filastine and Nova are not so much anti–wage labor as they are pro-responsibility. They want all captains of industry to honestly reassess the social and ecological damage done by structuring businesses around ideas like artificial scarcity, conspicuous consumption, planned obsolescence, and maximum profit.
	11:46am zopa: @joe (nefariously rubs hands together). it's working...
	11:47am annie: aahh, thanks joe..
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: Yep, Barbry Allen does the trick for me. Quietly taking it all in here, Joe, and it's been plenty, and all good. Thanks, and see you and the McGaskoes next time.
	11:48am Joe McG: @zopa: I knew you worked for Harry's estate! @Sem: Always nice to have you along.
	11:49am Brendan: Ethereal beauty
	11:49am LynnsBrother: Hey Joe, can't believe Elton John did that Nick Drake song!
	11:49am Planet Tyler: Hey Joe, I dont mind elton john i just dont like anyone covering nick drake usually!
	11:49am Planet Tyler: Commie pinko onwards brother!
	11:50am Whosondephone: I suppose this is a good time to say I lost my Aunt this morning.
	11:50am Whosondephone: I was expecting to loose my uncle...
	11:50am Joe McG: @LynnsB: Crazy, huh?
	11:51am LynnsBrother: Hey Joe, I didn't get my swag yet. Whats up?
	11:51am Joe McG: @Whos: Very sorry to hear that!
	👻 11:52am Brian in UK: @Whosondephone, sad to hear that, hope it was not too painful for them.
	11:53am Whosondephone: Thank you.
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Great show, Joe. I wonder if beer might cool me down. Only one way to find out. Sounds like these gals have been listening to Harry's Anthology.
	11:54am LynnsBrother: I called 201-209-9368 Is that correct?
	11:54am Joe McG: @Lynns: Hope! E-mail me at jmcgasko@wfmu.org and we'll figure it out!
	11:55am LynnsBrother: Thanks!!!
	11:56am SeanG: killer set Joe! thanks
	11:57am dgg: great show
	11:58am Joe McG: Thanks for listening, everybody! See you next time. Have a great week!
	👻 11:58am 12539: (Thanks, Joe)

	9:29am steveo: "In 1936, The New York Times reported that Ned Sparks had his face insured for USD$100,000 with Lloyd's of London."
	9:30am steveo: but what about his voice?
	9:31am Joe McG: @steveo: Ha ha ha! You can't have one without the other. Honorable Mention: Lee Tracy.
	9:31am Lixiviated Life: $100K for THAT mug?
	9:33am BronwynB: i love ned sparks. i took a global cinema class at cornell and we watched gold diggers of 1933. how we laughed at ned sparks, and called him squidward. then a few weeks later we were watching imitation of life and there's this part where a dark figure is lurking outside the main character's restaurant, and it takes forever for him to finally emerge from the shadows, and it was none other than ned sparks, who says in that voice of his, "SOME RAIN!" it was pandemonium, we fucking died laughing, i don't know why it was so funny but it was.
	9:34am Joe McG: "SOME rain!" Ha ha, I love it.
	9:35am Joe McG: Did anyone catch any of the Lubitsch festival at Film Forum? So great. I always forget how fun (and subversive) "Design for Living" is until I see it again.
	9:41am Joe McG: I guess none of you did!
	9:41am Ike: Oh, School Damage, what an unoriginal song! South Park already did it! Ha ha. No no srsly that was great.
	9:41am steveo: I'll have to look up Lee Tracy. I am digging this Fruit Vert. APparently paon is french for peacock. Pain perdu, of course is french toast. So it's funny/punny.
	9:43am Joe McG: @Ike: Ha ha! @steveo: Thanks for the translation. I was wondering why there were peacocks on the cover.
	9:52am melinda: Loved that set! Must transit to work, will resume soon!

	10:02am Jeff formerly from Rahway: Wow this a great song....is it new or early 90s?
	10:03am Joe McG: @Jeff: That's about 1992, that one.
	10:04am Vincent Nifigance: "Wow this a great song....is it new or early 90s?" an increasingly commonplace statement.
	👻 10:04am doctorjazz: Hi all! Liked the Mojo Men short on Wake and Bake this morning, Joe!
	10:04am Guido from Cologne: Seen a concert by The Bats quite recently! (reffering to Flying Nun)
	10:05am Parq: Okay, I need that Flying Nun comp.
	10:06am Parq: Been wanting to hear a rockin' version of Mama Mia -- one of the greatest pop songs ever -- for years.
	10:06am annie: sorry to be late, just in time, though, for mama mia!
	10:06am Joe McG: Thanks, doctor! I'm going to try to do one of those per week for the Pidge. @Guido: Here's some Bats for you! Hi, annie!
	10:08am Vincent Nifigance: @Joe McG Sunspotz was awesome, too.
	10:09am Joe McG: Many thanks, Vincent! I might play the song again on my show in case folks missed it. I have it with me.
	10:10am Guido from Cologne: :-)
	10:10am Tim 07030: "I haven't been this excited about a show since The Bats!" - overheard by me several years back as I entered a show by The Clean at Maxwell's, and I remember it because it might have been the most maxwells-y thing ever uttered.
	10:12am Joe McG: @Tim: You are the man who would know!
	10:14am Vincent Nifigance: @Joe Please do, I could definitely go for that again.
	10:14am annie: hey joe second payment went through fine. i guess we're a go, then.
	10:15am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Joe & all!

	10:18am Uncle Michael: Good morning from my one-man recovery ward. I hope to get released this afternoon. At least this facility has all my stuff.
	10:19am steveo: storms coming tonight; lower humidity tomorrow
	10:19am Joe McG: Heal up, Uncle Michael! Hi, MD! Wow, Irene, that's so cool that you were at that session.
	10:19am steveo: it was raining on the night she left
	10:21am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Joe. This afternoon they remove the bandages and I find out if I now have Claude Rains' leg.
	10:22am Uncle Michael: Aww, Bill Dana has left us.
	10:22am andrewb: for a second i thought that King Loser track was Lee and Nancy
	10:23am Irene Trudel: Joe, i think I engineer that Bats session. It was back at the 580 Springdale studio.
	10:23am Joe McG: @andrewb: Good morning! I have a feeling that's what they were going for.
	10:24am Joe McG: @Irene: The back of the record says Brad Morrison, but I never heard of him.
	10:24am Irene Trudel: andrewb, I thought the same thing. I hadn't been looking at the playlist till then and just had to look it up. I missed a lotta great stuff this morning.
	10:25am Summer and Michael: Loving this set! Great show, as ever, Joe!
	10:25am Irene Trudel: Maybe it's my faulty memory then. But I definitely was there with the guitar.
	10:25am Joe McG: @S&M: Thanks as always!
	10:27am Joe McG: Let's try that again!
	10:27am Uncle Michael: I believed it the first time. It was a bubblegum classic.
	10:29am steveo: ditto on the bubblegum; pulling up some feelings today, eh, Joe?
	10:30am Joe McG: @steveo: Some sneaky ones.
	10:35am steveo: ha; I had not noticed the artist's name
	10:38am Brendan: Thanks for the redux Joe. Something about sunny pop's corny innocence makes me feel good.
	10:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Wait, is this song about Jesus?
	10:40am Joe McG: You bet, Brendan! @Greg: If Jesus is a shapely gal, yes!
	10:41am Parq: Yes, I did sleep late today, thanks, so much obliged for the encore presentation.
	10:43am Joe McG: @Parq: My pleasure! Van Dyke Parks' arrangement is worth hearing over and over.
	👻 10:47am Brian in UK: Uncle, get well soon. "The Invisible mans outside" "Tell him I can't see him."
	👻 10:47am Ken From Hyde Park: Yay, Bow Wow Wow! Annabella rules!
	10:47am Itzall Ablurr: Sometimes Annabella's vocals kind of remind me of Liza Minnelli, in a good way.
	10:47am Parq: I see what you did there.
	10:47am melinda: Nice segue!
	10:47am Uncle Michael: Thanks, Brian. I'm doing fine.
	10:48am Passaic River Blues: @Ken: there's something about Annabella's voice--when it works it's crazy good.
	👻 10:48am tadpoles: Hi Joe..cursed having to work and miss your Kiwi set. Look forward to the archive to enjoy it, especially the Bats live @ FMU. PS nice morph from BWW to the Strangeloves. Cheers.
	10:48am melinda: @itzall I know what you mean.
	10:49am Joe McG: @parq and melinda and tadpoles: Slick, huh? ha ha
	10:49am larry from westwood: Great "work from home" music
	10:51am Joe McG: Heya, larry, glad you're tuned in. You too, Itzall.
	10:52am BronwynB: this is such a great song
	👻 10:53am Brian in UK: Never was a single buyer but I remember getting Drive by this lot.
	10:53am steveo: '78, and yet so 80s.
	10:54am The Oscar: The Cars are one of those bands I always forget that I like until I actually hear them.
	10:54am steveo: '78, and yet so 45.
	👻 10:55am doctorjazz: Same, Just What I Needed is great, turned my surly 18 year old on to this (generally likes punk/metal/scream).
	10:56am Greg from ZONE 5: YES! I had this random funk comp on cassette in high school and this was on it. Learning to drive was pretty much all funk and Pavement.
	10:57am Joe McG: @Greg: I don't know how you managed to drive while shaking your booty to this.
	10:59am Greg from ZONE 5: Luckily my parents' '86 Corolla had automatic funk stabilization.
	10:59am Vincent Nifigance: Thanks for the Creedence.
	11:00am Uncle Michael: Loved that Cameo. "what's that, the bus stop?"
	11:00am Joe McG: @Greg: HA HA HA
	11:02am frozen_peas: fantastic single file today
	11:02am Joe McG: Why, thank, frozen_peas! Welcome to the show.
	11:05am Brendan: Ahh the Jim Price remastered Kevin Ayers
	11:09am selloutscharpling: 14 year olds are legal in half the EU. Too bad Americans are forced to get used up grannies.
	11:11am Carmichael: Heya 1st Monday Joe. Hope all enjoyed their Father's Day yesterday.
	11:13am Doctor B: I tuned in just in time to hear you mention Negativland, but not to hear the details. Is there a special program coming up that deals with The Four Floptops, as some people call them?
	11:14am Dean: Why did I think Peter Perrett was dead? (He isn't.) I'm confusing him with somebody. Not TV Smith... Help?
	11:16am herb.nyc: hi joe and all, oh, that's why i heard wfmu play Nick Drake about 6hrs ago (i woke to pee). --- TV SMITH: i'm sure he's very very alive (i know the man who helps / books him when he plays in USandA)
	11:18am Joe McG: @Doctor B: Yes, tonight at 6 Vicki talks about Don Joyce's radio show. @Dean: It's amazing that he's still alive, but he is!
	11:19am herb.nyc: as you had a NEW ZEALAND thread earlier (i missed it), joe, i see that the NY Public Library keeps "news clippings" on the band. most likely at the lincoln center branch; i'll have to ask them how they choose the bands for such a purpose.
	11:19am Claw!: Yoooo Joey Joe Joe Ahoy hoy, good people
	11:20am Itzall Ablurr: Great show so far, as always!
	11:21am Joe McG: Ahoy, Claw! Thanks, Itzall!
	11:21am Greg from ZONE 5: Gorgeous I keep hearing "Children go where I send thee…"
	11:22am Joe McG: @Greg: Wow, Greg, I like that.
	11:22am Michael 98145: like riding the rails
	11:23am Carmichael: Daddy loves his Nick Drake.
	11:25am Mick: Draaaaaaging myself through a steamy, swampy Monday. This show is providing much-needed help. Thanks for the Nick Drake
	11:27am Joe McG: You bet, Mick! Wish he'd made it.
	11:27am annie: i tend to have a difficult time slogging through long tribute song-cycles... but nick drake, well, this is lovley. just lovely; Play On!!
	11:28am Michael 98145: what annie said
	11:29am Roberto: Did he just say "Pootnam?"
	11:30am Tim 07030: I can't hear All My Trials and not think of Elvis. But who cares, it's severethunderstormpalooza!
	11:30am herb.nyc: that's a long list? was it till 4.15pm? -- Pootnam? in french, fart is "prout", said "proot". fyi.
	11:31am Joe McG: Yes, everyone, please watch the skies....or die!
	11:31am Roberto: And whatever you do, stay away from Pootnam!
	11:31am KP: I used to have a four-disc Nick Drake boot I DL'd and assembled, inserts and all. None of that stuff made the move
	11:32am Planet Tyler: I had no idea elton john did a bunch of nick drake covers. And i can't believe i dont totally hate it.
	11:32am βrian: Scattered Late Romantic clouds over the isthmus today. Cool, breezy, and beautiful.
	11:32am Joe McG: OH, KP! How sad. @Roberto: POOTnam is trouble!
	11:33am herb.nyc: my sis turned me on to Elton via (self-titled) and Tumbleweed Connection. when i bought Goodbye Yellow Brick Road ($5.99, alexander's dept store at kings plaza) i was hooked. so i'd love to hear this: www.rollingstone.com...
	11:34am Joe McG: @Tyler: Early Elton John is sometimes quite nice and I like his Nick covers. Wish someone had had a hit with a Nick song. Might've made all the difference.
	11:36am Dennis Diken: digging the show Joe! I never heard those Elton demos neither. Elton, for the most part, was a great singles artist, methinks
	👻 11:36am Brian in UK: Elton's support at the Troubadour was David Ackles. Who?
	11:37am annie: richard dawson 'aminds me of what'sisname, the guy that wrote howl. i'll know the name by the time this is up on the screen.
	11:37am Wendy del Formaggio: Hey there, Joe. I'm quite late to the show, but here I am anyway. Is this really Richard Dawson, aka the creepy former host of "Family Feud"? "Stop kissing me, you gross old man!"
	11:38am Joe McG: @Dennis: Thanks! Yes, they are very nice versions, I think. Very much adapted to his voice; he made them work for him. I'm partial to a couple of Elton LPs (particularly "Madman" and "Tumbleweed"), but I agree that he's strongest on his singles for the most part.
	11:38am Marc Francis: Damn. What a song!
	👻 11:38am Brian in UK: Elton used to do a lot of those Telstar or whoever covers albums over here.
	11:38am Joe McG: @Wendy: Alas, poor Richard. We miss him.
	11:39am βrian: Different Dawson: en.wikipedia.org...
	11:39am steveo: Wendy, no. en.wikipedia.org...
	11:39am Greg from ZONE 5: Beautiful tunes from, I assume, the ghost of TV's Richard Dawson.
	11:40am steveo: jinx!
	11:41am Cliff in Prague: That Richard Dawson song was amazing. Never heard him before.
	11:42am zopa: hi joe. i notice you haven't played any Nilsson today. i'm not judging... just say'n... what's a day without ol' Harry?
	11:42am Joe McG: @Cliff: He's quite a singer-songwriter. Worth investigating!
	11:42am Greg from ZONE 5: Ben Richards: "Killian…I'll be back." Damon Killian: "Only in a re-run."
	11:43am annie: allen ginsberg!! i actually had to look it up.. i sure hope that file can be found another time
	11:43am Wendy del Formaggio: Ooh, thanks, friends. I like this Richard Dawson much better. What an interesting story he has, and that was a lovely song.
	11:43am Joe McG: @zopa: Don't want to overwork the fella. I see he was pretty popular on the station last week!
	11:44am Joe McG: @annie: His record of Blake bits has just been reissued, but I haven't heard it yet.
	11:45am herb.nyc: aside, i just sent this commie pinko fag article to the Lower East Side Ecology Center, with excerpts: www.villagevoice.com... Filastine and Nova believe that the constraints of nationalism and global capitalism enslave the human race; their album title presupposes that many will call them crazy because their art advocates the need to abandon both systems. The ever-expanding suite of music and videos tied to Drapetomania makes one wonder what might happen if this multimedia project got as much press and exposure as Beyoncé’s Lemonade — and given the diverse sources of inspiration for Lemonade, it wouldn’t surprise me if… The desire to imagine and live a better life. Yet Filastine and Nova are not so much anti–wage labor as they are pro-responsibility. They want all captains of industry to honestly reassess the social and ecological damage done by structuring businesses around ideas like artificial scarcity, conspicuous consumption, planned obsolescence, and maximum profit.
	11:46am zopa: @joe (nefariously rubs hands together). it's working...
	11:47am annie: aahh, thanks joe..
	11:47am Sem Chumbo: Yep, Barbry Allen does the trick for me. Quietly taking it all in here, Joe, and it's been plenty, and all good. Thanks, and see you and the McGaskoes next time.
	11:48am Joe McG: @zopa: I knew you worked for Harry's estate! @Sem: Always nice to have you along.
	11:49am Brendan: Ethereal beauty
	11:49am LynnsBrother: Hey Joe, can't believe Elton John did that Nick Drake song!
	11:49am Planet Tyler: Hey Joe, I dont mind elton john i just dont like anyone covering nick drake usually!
	11:49am Planet Tyler: Commie pinko onwards brother!
	11:50am Whosondephone: I suppose this is a good time to say I lost my Aunt this morning.
	11:50am Whosondephone: I was expecting to loose my uncle...
	11:50am Joe McG: @LynnsB: Crazy, huh?
	11:51am LynnsBrother: Hey Joe, I didn't get my swag yet. Whats up?
	11:51am Joe McG: @Whos: Very sorry to hear that!
	👻 11:52am Brian in UK: @Whosondephone, sad to hear that, hope it was not too painful for them.
	11:53am Whosondephone: Thank you.
	👻 11:54am Brian in UK: Great show, Joe. I wonder if beer might cool me down. Only one way to find out. Sounds like these gals have been listening to Harry's Anthology.
	11:54am LynnsBrother: I called 201-209-9368 Is that correct?
	11:54am Joe McG: @Lynns: Hope! E-mail me at jmcgasko@wfmu.org and we'll figure it out!
	11:55am LynnsBrother: Thanks!!!
	11:56am SeanG: killer set Joe! thanks
