	3:08pm Charles: Hey was that you buying organic groceries in the Park Slope Food Co Op on Tuesday?
	3:08pm Michael 98145: woo -
	3:08pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: This kinda reminds me of Zappa, but I think it's not Zappa...
	3:10pm northguineahills: Digging Wild Neil's tag.
	3:10pm brainiac: huffhuff* I got here quick as I could... What did I miss?
	👻 3:10pm Rev. Turnip Druid: wifi in the hotel gettin' a bit creepy. Sticking it out as long as possible.
	3:11pm Carmichael: This is either Hampton Grease Band or a bunch of mental patients let loose in the music room.
	3:12pm Michael 98145: i must be listening to WFMU
	3:12pm Lixiviated Life: tuned in
	3:14pm pinholga: Not hearing Zappa. Is it cheating to Shazam...?
	3:14pm listener james from westwood: The mic breaks are gonna be so calm without Clay grilling Fabio while pitching!
	3:14pm steveo: Last time I was in the coop was Monday, March 12. Or were you asking someone else?
	3:15pm Linda Lee: even Clay is calmer now. frenzy over.
	3:17pm Chris from DC: Ooh, this is nice.
	3:18pm Linda Lee: uplifting!
	3:20pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: @NG Hills-thanks! I got it at Giphy.com. I selected moirè pattern and this came out. This track is bending my mind. It sounds like a windstorm through an pipe organ pipe factory.
	3:21pm Brendan: No place I’d rather be than right here right now. Great marathon Fab. Really enjoy the rapport you have not only with the other DJs during the ‘thon but also with us when you’re solo doing the regular thing.
	3:23pm Linda Lee: wow
	3:24pm brainiac: I'm willing to bet this is followed by another Kyrgyz track.
	3:25pm Michael 98145: trepanning
	👻 3:25pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Everything is wonderful forever.
	3:26pm brainiac: I lose!
	3:26pm Linda Lee: pretty close reflection of my own mind lately.
	3:26pm Linda Lee: or mood ..
	3:28pm Berndo411: This song rules!
	3:28pm northguineahills: I'm going out on a limb and assume Kyrgyz is Kyrgyzstani.
	3:28pm Cheri Pi: delayed: Heya Fab!
	3:31pm Brendan: Good set to smoke hash bong hits in a yurt.
	3:31pm foofs: Everybody yurts sometimes!
	👻 3:32pm Rev. Turnip Druid: only when I laugh.
	3:33pm chocolate monk: worse selling No Wave LP of all time??
	3:34pm Linda Lee: wow ~~ loving this organ / bandwagon sitar piece!
	3:34pm Linda Lee: 'afternoon Fabio!
	3:35pm Carmichael: Much better! Kind of a 60s mod/hep cat martini party sound!
	3:37pm Michael 98145: lotsa hearts and radios in the hood
	3:39pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: NY State parks have yurts at some of their campgrounds. No bathroom, but A/C (GREAT in the hot hot hot summer!), beds (bring a sleeping bag!), a couch and a table with chairs. Its awesome!
	3:39pm Linda Lee: yurts are wonderful spaces to spend time in. really refreshing.
	3:44pm Gilly: Nice to be back
	3:45pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: They are not REAL yurts made out of wool, but still they are very very very cool. @Linda Lee-what happened in campgrounds that become court cases?
	3:46pm Linda Lee: theft, assault ..
	3:48pm Linda Lee: we can construct authentic yurts here in the states, but mainly what we see is modified ~ different materials necessary for the marketplace. not so many yaks.
	👻 3:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Kapital-K Klickystar.
	3:52pm Berndo411: keep it weird folks
	3:53pm exile-on-hicks-st: Any who might claim a grimace cannot be heard should listen to last week’s show.
	3:54pm exile-on-hicks-st: Tho I do know that Clay ❤️’s Fabio.
	3:55pm Chris from DC: Is this still Selten Gehörte? Digging very much.
	3:57pm Brendan: ‘The world is a plastic mushroom’
	3:58pm Chris from DC: Oh wait.
	👻 3:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: may I clicky aginn?
	3:59pm brainiac: And just like that, Yoko enters the room and ruins everything.
	4:01pm nic: love that
	4:02pm Linda Lee: post marathon shows have been just amazing. this one included ~
	👻 4:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this = the powwow I'd been searching for.
	4:05pm Linda Lee: i'm not sure what FMU would be without Strength Through Failure. lesser, for sure.
	👻 4:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: What th'Linda said.
	4:06pm Dubinator: All hail Carter Thornton!
	4:15pm Linda Lee: Axolotl piece makes me very happy. There are sometimes miracles!
	4:16pm Devin B.: Wow this set.
	4:16pm olivia: This is so pretty and peaceful
	4:17pm Loquitur: Shangri la las
	4:17pm nic: love this !!!
	4:20pm Linda Lee: emergency alert test fits right in :-D
	4:20pm Linda Lee: dull though
	4:22pm Parq: Whoa, tuned in during the EBS test. Looks like I missed a great set. Better hope the next one is as good. Fortunately, that's likely.
	4:22pm Chris from DC: Shoot I have missed Axolotl. Must barricade office door next time.
	4:22pm brainiac: Right about now Clay should call in and request some Foghat.
	4:22pm Linda Lee: "stay tuned" :-)
	4:23pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao Fabio! That was cool, also cool it's not the end of the world.
	4:23pm TDK60: Hi. Where's the guy from Iowa? // Love long titles.
	4:24pm TDK60: Run that by me again Fqbio...
	4:24pm melinda: Hi Fabio and all
	4:24pm queems: welp
	4:25pm Linda Lee: wee bit indulgent on that title there ..
	4:26pm northguineahills: Just made fried eggs, sea veggies, asparagus, fried eggs, together w/ a smathering of habenero salsa verde. YUM!
	4:28pm Parq: NGH, sounds good, but maybe you should have thrown in some fried eggs.
	4:29pm northguineahills: then some would end up on my face!
	4:29pm Linda Lee: No one makes me miss living in NYC like Fabio when he tells us what's playing ..
	4:31pm Parq: Fabio should be on the board at Film Forum. Where do I write to nominate him?
	4:31pm Linda Lee: we're sure he's not? :-D
	4:31pm spodiodi: has seaweed been re-branded?
	4:33pm ⓔⓘⓚ: I just arrived at the comments board and read the comment "then some would end up on my face!" before any of the others. I was like, "Woah, what are we talking about?!?!" Also, the title "Trumpets for Dick Higgins" sounds kind of dirty. Just me? Okay, just me. I'm having that kind of afternoon.
	4:33pm Linda Lee: such pretty horns.
	4:33pm natbot: Axolotl!!!!
	4:36pm Linda Lee: must be springtime, when a young eik's fancy turns to thoughts of .. .. something
	4:37pm brainiac: @IKE Front to Back https://i.pinimg.com/originals/59/fb/fc/59fbfc18db7b994ad26401f220025233.jpg
	4:37pm nic: love !!!
	4:37pm Linda Lee: amazing sound quality
	4:38pm northguineahills: @spodioti, well, there's what's commonly called seaweed, and there are other sea biotica (ie: kelp, multicellular algae, etc) that are also edible.
	4:38pm ⓔⓘⓘⓘⓘⓚ: That's semi-NSFW LOL! (Good thing my boss's boss isn't at his desk behind me today.)
	4:38pm northguineahills: Dick Higgins needed trumpets!
	4:40pm ⓔⓘⓘⓘⓘⓚ: @NGH, I've surely mentioned this, but kaipen (Laotian crispy river moss) is tasty.
	4:41pm Linda Lee: newly discovered: when the wafer-thin cord connecting Mac Air to the mothership finally frays, repair with tin foil!
	4:42pm Linda Lee: take that, Apple! :-D
	4:43pm northguineahills: yeah, ike, I definitely need to find some! I was frying dulse, a red sea vegetable harvested from the coast of maine.
	4:43pm Ochre Ogre: Another cool Mario Bava film "Planet of the Vampires" 1965, great sets, don't know who did the music.
	4:43pm northguineahills: @braniac: I never got that much action when I played French horn in HS! (seen that cover before, love it!)
	4:44pm Linda Lee: i think my ears love italian monster movie soundtracks more than just about anything :-D
	4:45pm brainiac: Best not to encourage me, lest I post again ;)
	4:45pm Ochre Ogre: @ Linda Lee- That was great background music to yer tech discovery.
	4:49pm Linda Lee: ha! sure was. wasn't sure it was all coming from Fabio!
	👻 4:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: What we really need are some sea creatures that feast on plastic. Plenty of that floating around.
	4:53pm Linda Lee: how about a robot? surely we can do better with our advances in robotics than a shtup-machine
	4:53pm Ochre Ogre: Yeah, you never know with foil. Oh the stuff I receive with a foil hat in a field on a clear night!!
	4:54pm Linda Lee: ho! no doubt!
	4:54pm Anthony from Jacksonville FLA: What is this?
	4:57pm Chris from DC: Ignatz!
	4:57pm Anthony from Jacksonville FLA: Is it a helium breathing man talking over a distorted bass guitar that is feeding back into a recursive loop? Strangely I kinda like it but I would not play it at a party.
	👻 4:59pm Bas NL: I'd organize a party to play this.. brilliant! Hi Fabio, All!
	4:59pm TDK60: Anthony, it may be Ignatz, climbing the WFMU Charts here. // Ken, you refer to that plastic patch in the Pacific? Just read that small sea creatures are getting overwhelmed by pollution/acidification.
	5:01pm geezerette: This music goes beautifully with the rain. Howdy, Fabio & fellow failures!
	5:03pm Linda Lee: as the creatures go, so do we. that's for sure.
	5:04pm Linda Lee: hi geezerette! rain sounds lovely. nothing but 'too cold' here ..
	5:04pm TDK60: Linda: We're in trouble. Boggles the mind a few times almost every day now...
	5:08pm Parq: Wait, Kurasawa filmed an Ed McBain book? Oh man, this changes everything!
	5:09pm TDK60: Haven't heard of the Metrograph theater yet. Will have to check it out.
	5:10pm Linda Lee: yep. & we all go on somehow. but why not?
	5:12pm Michael 98145: ... totally agree. most films were made for the big screen and should be seen that way.
	5:12pm Linda Lee: i hear the seed of another Quick Take: seeing films on phones!
	5:12pm brainiac: My favorite David Lynch clip: https://youtu.be/wKiIroiCvZ0
	👻 5:13pm Rev. Turnip Druid: 45 seconds in & I'm hooked on this here
	5:13pm Michael 98145: ^ hey, gz'ette!
	5:13pm Linda Lee: me too
	5:14pm ⓘⓚⓔ: I've seen very few Kurosawa flicks, but "High and Low" is amazing.
	5:16pm geezerette: @Linda Lee: Films On Phones sounds like an 80s Brit Pop band. Hello Michael! Look! Water! From the sky!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: we get lotsa water from the sky up here ...
	5:17pm Linda Lee: ha! it does! spelled Fylms ~
	5:18pm Linda Lee: on Fones
	5:20pm Michael 98145: ... better than Tones on Tail
	5:20pm geezerette: We're all in shock at the phenomenon. Swept away even... Linda Lee, even better! Almost worth learning to play a synthesizer badly just to use the name.
	5:22pm Carmichael: A new concept for me too, geez. We're getting pelted with water!
	5:22pm Linda Lee: be fun, eh? don't forget the high butter-blond hair & shoulder pads :-D
	5:23pm Carmichael: Fylms on Fonz.
	5:23pm Linda Lee: @Carmichael ~ exactly. or Fylmz!
	5:25pm geezerette: Carm, have you battened down the hatches? Linda Lee, haha! Must look in back of closet...or Good Will.
	5:26pm Carmichael: I'm building an ark. Boy, no pesky chord changes on this song ...
	5:26pm Ochre Ogre: Tones on Tongue- taste the music.
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: sweet curling jesus trees.
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I'm anti-chord-changes. And I vote.
	5:28pm Carmichael: #samechordalways
	5:28pm Linda Lee: no clothes left from the 80s here ~ thank Gosh!
	5:29pm Carmichael: Hey Fabs, the song list disappeared.
	5:29pm Carmichael: Must be stupid IE11. My app is fine.
	5:33pm melinda: I have some socks from the 80s. They have xmas trees on them so they're seldom worn.
	5:33pm geezerette: Neither do I, wow what an ugly decade. Shoulder pads especially.
	5:33pm Michael 98145: ( wow, looks like you folks in CA are gettin yerself a Pineapple Express! weather.com... )
	5:34pm Carmichael: @Michael, through Saturday, apparently. Biblical rain levels.
	👻 5:35pm chris: sounded like a river over my house last night, Michael. flood warnings throughout the early morning hours. (hi, everyone!)
	5:35pm Michael 98145: cripes. be safe down there.
	5:37pm Ochre Ogre: Horrid decade, first decade without John Lennon.
	5:37pm Michael 98145: ... we always expected this century to be better ...
	5:38pm common: good eve Fabio and all!
	5:39pm dale: hello fabio and felow failures. hope i don't insult if i say this guitar piece sounds wyndham hill-y.
	5:39pm Gilly: @Michael yeah we're getting it. Hope it's not as disastrous as before
	5:40pm Gilly: Btw great show today Fabio :)
	5:41pm Michael 98145: that was a great track
	5:42pm dale: michael hedges-y.
	5:43pm melinda: @geeze shoulder pads were so bad that they never came back in style along with other 80s fashions. Big hair too.
	5:43pm Michael 98145: the internets sez: "Life Memories of a lepidopterist"
	5:44pm Michael 98145: ( just hope bellbottoms don't come alive again :)
	5:44pm geezerette: Sir Richard Starkey of the Turntable though. That's a weirdly sweet thing. And silly. Melinda, keep those socks. It's cold outside! And the socks go with cocoa. :)
	5:45pm melinda: Flared jeans were a thing for a while. I liked them better than skinny jeans.
	👻 5:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: What style are the ties, wide or thin?
	5:46pm Linda Lee: we did have very good cheap thrift shops, however ~ i rarely wore 80s clothes in the 80s. the ties are ultra thin, Ken.
	5:46pm Carmichael: I was in a skinny tie band for a while.
	5:47pm Linda Lee: were you? :-D
	5:47pm geezerette: Currently ties are worn below the knee in Washington. What are they trying to hide?
	5:47pm melinda: I also have a cardigan from the 80s that was vintage then, somehow it has survived. The buttons are cool but falling off.
	5:48pm common: hee, geezerette! love flared Jeans and ties. wearing both right now.
	5:48pm Linda Lee: vintage was our saving grace. & black leather biker jackets that really haven't changed since the 40s
	5:48pm dale: 70s i wore 40s clothes. 80s i wore 50s. 90s was 60s and 70s. it all depended on who died and had their entire closet donated to the thrift shop.
	5:48pm brainiac: @geezerette: They're overcompensating for their, uh, shortcomings.
	5:49pm Linda Lee: ha!! that's true dale!
	5:49pm dale: ...and i still have my schott biker jacket from the 80s.
	5:50pm geezerette: Common,how is that tie decorated? Brainiac, chuckle...:D
	👻 5:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: Need a Fabio Quick Take segment on skinny-tie bands.
	5:50pm Linda Lee: nice, dale! do you oil it?
	5:51pm Linda Lee: mine are getting sorta stiff .. not sure what to do.
	5:52pm geezerette: "Thrift" shops are fun. Still! Thrill of the hunt.
	5:53pm Linda Lee: i hear they're catching on to eBay pricing though. a shame.
	5:53pm dale: i've done some leather treatment from the tractor supply but probably good old mink oil is the best best. problem is you can't oil the part that faces the inside lining.
	5:53pm northguineahills: @dale: I started buying my own clothes in HS in the early 90s, and yes, it was mostly late 60s/early 70s (and later 70s) fashion. Heck, I went to prom wearing a polyester leisure suit in '94. (My mom [still] manages a charity thrift store, so, when the nursing homes/order of the moose lodges etc dumped their clothes off of the recently deceased, I got first dibs!)
	5:55pm dale: excellent northguineahills. 90s i was wearing polyester leisure suits i found. got lots of strange looks but the one's that 'got it' became friends.
	5:55pm Linda Lee: @dale ~ indeed, guess it's the ol' mink oil if i want to keep wearing my jackets.
	5:56pm Linda Lee: a dream come true for 80s Linda Lee, ngh :-)
	5:56pm nic: love !!!
	5:56pm Loquitur: Nothing can turn this train around
	5:56pm Loquitur: And this is called...sad.
	5:57pm brainiac: "The present is a gift we open continuously" − Me
	5:57pm geezerette: haha!
	5:57pm Linda Lee: very nice brainiac!
	5:57pm dale: mink oil. lexol, saddle soap, whatever you can get a hold of. i've used lemon pledge on my shoes.
	👻 5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Probably now's a good time to buy mink oil before mango-pants puts a tariff on it.
	5:58pm Linda Lee: even if so, if there's a will ...
	5:58pm geezerette: Thanks, Fabio and gang!
	5:58pm Michael 98145: ^ ( you guys are making me smile today :)
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the Hits again Fabio. Come back next week....
	5:58pm nic: love all 3
	5:58pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Fabio !!
	5:58pm Linda Lee: thanks for a wonderful show Fabio!
	5:58pm northguineahills: Thanks Fabio!
	👻 5:58pm chris: i love two things about this Taanila piece. i hear 'present/prison' and that appeals to the existentialist in me. and the moonlight sonata phrasing reminds me of my mom playing it.
	5:58pm Ochre Ogre: Had a Schott motorcycle jacket from the 70's for ages, as all of "Andy's children" did. Even wore it to the MOMA opening party of his retrospective.
	👻 5:59pm chris: thanks, Fabio!
	5:59pm Linda Lee: gee hadn't thought of Andy's jacket at all!
	5:59pm dale: ....and it's all china's fault that our execs off shore everything to them?
	5:59pm Loquitur: Great set

	3:39pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: NY State parks have yurts at some of their campgrounds. No bathroom, but A/C (GREAT in the hot hot hot summer!), beds (bring a sleeping bag!), a couch and a table with chairs. Its awesome!
	3:39pm Linda Lee: yurts are wonderful spaces to spend time in. really refreshing.
	3:44pm Gilly: Nice to be back
	3:45pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: They are not REAL yurts made out of wool, but still they are very very very cool. @Linda Lee-what happened in campgrounds that become court cases?
	3:46pm Linda Lee: theft, assault ..
	3:48pm Linda Lee: we can construct authentic yurts here in the states, but mainly what we see is modified ~ different materials necessary for the marketplace. not so many yaks.
	👻 3:50pm Rev. Turnip Druid: Kapital-K Klickystar.
	3:52pm Berndo411: keep it weird folks
	3:53pm exile-on-hicks-st: Any who might claim a grimace cannot be heard should listen to last week’s show.
	3:54pm exile-on-hicks-st: Tho I do know that Clay ❤️’s Fabio.
	3:55pm Chris from DC: Is this still Selten Gehörte? Digging very much.
	3:57pm Brendan: ‘The world is a plastic mushroom’
	3:58pm Chris from DC: Oh wait.
	👻 3:58pm Rev. Turnip Druid: may I clicky aginn?
	3:59pm brainiac: And just like that, Yoko enters the room and ruins everything.
	4:01pm nic: love that
	4:02pm Linda Lee: post marathon shows have been just amazing. this one included ~
	👻 4:02pm Rev. Turnip Druid: this = the powwow I'd been searching for.
	4:05pm Linda Lee: i'm not sure what FMU would be without Strength Through Failure. lesser, for sure.
	👻 4:05pm Rev. Turnip Druid: What th'Linda said.
	4:06pm Dubinator: All hail Carter Thornton!
	4:15pm Linda Lee: Axolotl piece makes me very happy. There are sometimes miracles!
	4:16pm Devin B.: Wow this set.
	4:16pm olivia: This is so pretty and peaceful
	4:17pm Loquitur: Shangri la las
	4:17pm nic: love this !!!
	4:20pm Linda Lee: emergency alert test fits right in :-D
	4:20pm Linda Lee: dull though
	4:22pm Parq: Whoa, tuned in during the EBS test. Looks like I missed a great set. Better hope the next one is as good. Fortunately, that's likely.
	4:22pm Chris from DC: Shoot I have missed Axolotl. Must barricade office door next time.
	4:22pm brainiac: Right about now Clay should call in and request some Foghat.
	4:22pm Linda Lee: "stay tuned" :-)
	4:23pm Ochre Ogre: Ciao Fabio! That was cool, also cool it's not the end of the world.
	4:23pm TDK60: Hi. Where's the guy from Iowa? // Love long titles.
	4:24pm TDK60: Run that by me again Fqbio...
	4:24pm melinda: Hi Fabio and all
	4:24pm queems: welp
	4:25pm Linda Lee: wee bit indulgent on that title there ..
	4:26pm northguineahills: Just made fried eggs, sea veggies, asparagus, fried eggs, together w/ a smathering of habenero salsa verde. YUM!
	4:28pm Parq: NGH, sounds good, but maybe you should have thrown in some fried eggs.
	4:29pm northguineahills: then some would end up on my face!
	4:29pm Linda Lee: No one makes me miss living in NYC like Fabio when he tells us what's playing ..
	4:31pm Parq: Fabio should be on the board at Film Forum. Where do I write to nominate him?
	4:31pm Linda Lee: we're sure he's not? :-D
	4:31pm spodiodi: has seaweed been re-branded?
	4:33pm ⓔⓘⓚ: I just arrived at the comments board and read the comment "then some would end up on my face!" before any of the others. I was like, "Woah, what are we talking about?!?!" Also, the title "Trumpets for Dick Higgins" sounds kind of dirty. Just me? Okay, just me. I'm having that kind of afternoon.
	4:33pm Linda Lee: such pretty horns.
	4:33pm natbot: Axolotl!!!!
	4:36pm Linda Lee: must be springtime, when a young eik's fancy turns to thoughts of .. .. something
	4:37pm brainiac: @IKE Front to Back https://i.pinimg.com/originals/59/fb/fc/59fbfc18db7b994ad26401f220025233.jpg
	4:37pm nic: love !!!
	4:37pm Linda Lee: amazing sound quality
	4:38pm northguineahills: @spodioti, well, there's what's commonly called seaweed, and there are other sea biotica (ie: kelp, multicellular algae, etc) that are also edible.
	4:38pm ⓔⓘⓘⓘⓘⓚ: That's semi-NSFW LOL! (Good thing my boss's boss isn't at his desk behind me today.)
	4:38pm northguineahills: Dick Higgins needed trumpets!
	4:40pm ⓔⓘⓘⓘⓘⓚ: @NGH, I've surely mentioned this, but kaipen (Laotian crispy river moss) is tasty.
	4:41pm Linda Lee: newly discovered: when the wafer-thin cord connecting Mac Air to the mothership finally frays, repair with tin foil!
	4:42pm Linda Lee: take that, Apple! :-D
	4:43pm northguineahills: yeah, ike, I definitely need to find some! I was frying dulse, a red sea vegetable harvested from the coast of maine.
	4:43pm Ochre Ogre: Another cool Mario Bava film "Planet of the Vampires" 1965, great sets, don't know who did the music.
	4:43pm northguineahills: @braniac: I never got that much action when I played French horn in HS! (seen that cover before, love it!)
	4:44pm Linda Lee: i think my ears love italian monster movie soundtracks more than just about anything :-D
	4:45pm brainiac: Best not to encourage me, lest I post again ;)
	4:45pm Ochre Ogre: @ Linda Lee- That was great background music to yer tech discovery.
	4:49pm Linda Lee: ha! sure was. wasn't sure it was all coming from Fabio!
	👻 4:51pm Ken From Hyde Park: What we really need are some sea creatures that feast on plastic. Plenty of that floating around.
	4:53pm Linda Lee: how about a robot? surely we can do better with our advances in robotics than a shtup-machine
	4:53pm Ochre Ogre: Yeah, you never know with foil. Oh the stuff I receive with a foil hat in a field on a clear night!!
	4:54pm Linda Lee: ho! no doubt!
	4:54pm Anthony from Jacksonville FLA: What is this?
	4:57pm Chris from DC: Ignatz!
	4:57pm Anthony from Jacksonville FLA: Is it a helium breathing man talking over a distorted bass guitar that is feeding back into a recursive loop? Strangely I kinda like it but I would not play it at a party.
	👻 4:59pm Bas NL: I'd organize a party to play this.. brilliant! Hi Fabio, All!
	4:59pm TDK60: Anthony, it may be Ignatz, climbing the WFMU Charts here. // Ken, you refer to that plastic patch in the Pacific? Just read that small sea creatures are getting overwhelmed by pollution/acidification.
	5:01pm geezerette: This music goes beautifully with the rain. Howdy, Fabio & fellow failures!
	5:03pm Linda Lee: as the creatures go, so do we. that's for sure.
	5:04pm Linda Lee: hi geezerette! rain sounds lovely. nothing but 'too cold' here ..
	5:04pm TDK60: Linda: We're in trouble. Boggles the mind a few times almost every day now...
	5:08pm Parq: Wait, Kurasawa filmed an Ed McBain book? Oh man, this changes everything!
	5:09pm TDK60: Haven't heard of the Metrograph theater yet. Will have to check it out.
	5:10pm Linda Lee: yep. & we all go on somehow. but why not?
	5:12pm Michael 98145: ... totally agree. most films were made for the big screen and should be seen that way.
	5:12pm Linda Lee: i hear the seed of another Quick Take: seeing films on phones!
	5:12pm brainiac: My favorite David Lynch clip: https://youtu.be/wKiIroiCvZ0
	👻 5:13pm Rev. Turnip Druid: 45 seconds in & I'm hooked on this here
	5:13pm Michael 98145: ^ hey, gz'ette!
	5:13pm Linda Lee: me too
	5:14pm ⓘⓚⓔ: I've seen very few Kurosawa flicks, but "High and Low" is amazing.
	5:16pm geezerette: @Linda Lee: Films On Phones sounds like an 80s Brit Pop band. Hello Michael! Look! Water! From the sky!
	5:17pm Michael 98145: we get lotsa water from the sky up here ...
	5:17pm Linda Lee: ha! it does! spelled Fylms ~
	5:18pm Linda Lee: on Fones
	5:20pm Michael 98145: ... better than Tones on Tail
	5:20pm geezerette: We're all in shock at the phenomenon. Swept away even... Linda Lee, even better! Almost worth learning to play a synthesizer badly just to use the name.
	5:22pm Carmichael: A new concept for me too, geez. We're getting pelted with water!
	5:22pm Linda Lee: be fun, eh? don't forget the high butter-blond hair & shoulder pads :-D
	5:23pm Carmichael: Fylms on Fonz.
	5:23pm Linda Lee: @Carmichael ~ exactly. or Fylmz!
	5:25pm geezerette: Carm, have you battened down the hatches? Linda Lee, haha! Must look in back of closet...or Good Will.
	5:26pm Carmichael: I'm building an ark. Boy, no pesky chord changes on this song ...
	5:26pm Ochre Ogre: Tones on Tongue- taste the music.
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: sweet curling jesus trees.
	👻 5:27pm Rev. Turnip Druid: I'm anti-chord-changes. And I vote.
	5:28pm Carmichael: #samechordalways
	5:28pm Linda Lee: no clothes left from the 80s here ~ thank Gosh!
	5:29pm Carmichael: Hey Fabs, the song list disappeared.
	5:29pm Carmichael: Must be stupid IE11. My app is fine.
	5:33pm melinda: I have some socks from the 80s. They have xmas trees on them so they're seldom worn.
	5:33pm geezerette: Neither do I, wow what an ugly decade. Shoulder pads especially.
	5:33pm Michael 98145: ( wow, looks like you folks in CA are gettin yerself a Pineapple Express! weather.com... )
	5:34pm Carmichael: @Michael, through Saturday, apparently. Biblical rain levels.
	👻 5:35pm chris: sounded like a river over my house last night, Michael. flood warnings throughout the early morning hours. (hi, everyone!)
	5:35pm Michael 98145: cripes. be safe down there.
	5:37pm Ochre Ogre: Horrid decade, first decade without John Lennon.
	5:37pm Michael 98145: ... we always expected this century to be better ...
	5:38pm common: good eve Fabio and all!
	5:39pm dale: hello fabio and felow failures. hope i don't insult if i say this guitar piece sounds wyndham hill-y.
	5:39pm Gilly: @Michael yeah we're getting it. Hope it's not as disastrous as before
	5:40pm Gilly: Btw great show today Fabio :)
	5:41pm Michael 98145: that was a great track
	5:42pm dale: michael hedges-y.
	5:43pm melinda: @geeze shoulder pads were so bad that they never came back in style along with other 80s fashions. Big hair too.
	5:43pm Michael 98145: the internets sez: "Life Memories of a lepidopterist"
	5:44pm Michael 98145: ( just hope bellbottoms don't come alive again :)
	5:44pm geezerette: Sir Richard Starkey of the Turntable though. That's a weirdly sweet thing. And silly. Melinda, keep those socks. It's cold outside! And the socks go with cocoa. :)
	5:45pm melinda: Flared jeans were a thing for a while. I liked them better than skinny jeans.
	👻 5:45pm Ken From Hyde Park: What style are the ties, wide or thin?
	5:46pm Linda Lee: we did have very good cheap thrift shops, however ~ i rarely wore 80s clothes in the 80s. the ties are ultra thin, Ken.
	5:46pm Carmichael: I was in a skinny tie band for a while.
	5:47pm Linda Lee: were you? :-D
	5:47pm geezerette: Currently ties are worn below the knee in Washington. What are they trying to hide?
	5:47pm melinda: I also have a cardigan from the 80s that was vintage then, somehow it has survived. The buttons are cool but falling off.
	5:48pm common: hee, geezerette! love flared Jeans and ties. wearing both right now.
	5:48pm Linda Lee: vintage was our saving grace. & black leather biker jackets that really haven't changed since the 40s
	5:48pm dale: 70s i wore 40s clothes. 80s i wore 50s. 90s was 60s and 70s. it all depended on who died and had their entire closet donated to the thrift shop.
	5:48pm brainiac: @geezerette: They're overcompensating for their, uh, shortcomings.
	5:49pm Linda Lee: ha!! that's true dale!
	5:49pm dale: ...and i still have my schott biker jacket from the 80s.
	5:50pm geezerette: Common,how is that tie decorated? Brainiac, chuckle...:D
	👻 5:50pm Ken From Hyde Park: Need a Fabio Quick Take segment on skinny-tie bands.
	5:50pm Linda Lee: nice, dale! do you oil it?
	5:51pm Linda Lee: mine are getting sorta stiff .. not sure what to do.
	5:52pm geezerette: "Thrift" shops are fun. Still! Thrill of the hunt.
	5:53pm Linda Lee: i hear they're catching on to eBay pricing though. a shame.
	5:53pm dale: i've done some leather treatment from the tractor supply but probably good old mink oil is the best best. problem is you can't oil the part that faces the inside lining.
	5:53pm northguineahills: @dale: I started buying my own clothes in HS in the early 90s, and yes, it was mostly late 60s/early 70s (and later 70s) fashion. Heck, I went to prom wearing a polyester leisure suit in '94. (My mom [still] manages a charity thrift store, so, when the nursing homes/order of the moose lodges etc dumped their clothes off of the recently deceased, I got first dibs!)
	5:55pm dale: excellent northguineahills. 90s i was wearing polyester leisure suits i found. got lots of strange looks but the one's that 'got it' became friends.
	5:55pm Linda Lee: @dale ~ indeed, guess it's the ol' mink oil if i want to keep wearing my jackets.
	5:56pm Linda Lee: a dream come true for 80s Linda Lee, ngh :-)
	5:56pm nic: love !!!
	5:56pm Loquitur: Nothing can turn this train around
	5:56pm Loquitur: And this is called...sad.
	5:57pm brainiac: "The present is a gift we open continuously" − Me
	5:57pm geezerette: haha!
	5:57pm Linda Lee: very nice brainiac!
	5:57pm dale: mink oil. lexol, saddle soap, whatever you can get a hold of. i've used lemon pledge on my shoes.
	👻 5:57pm Ken From Hyde Park: Probably now's a good time to buy mink oil before mango-pants puts a tariff on it.
	5:58pm Linda Lee: even if so, if there's a will ...
	5:58pm geezerette: Thanks, Fabio and gang!
	5:58pm Michael 98145: ^ ( you guys are making me smile today :)
	5:58pm TDK60: Thanks for the Hits again Fabio. Come back next week....
	5:58pm nic: love all 3
	5:58pm Michael 98145: thanks again, Fabio !!
	5:58pm Linda Lee: thanks for a wonderful show Fabio!
	5:58pm northguineahills: Thanks Fabio!
	👻 5:58pm chris: i love two things about this Taanila piece. i hear 'present/prison' and that appeals to the existentialist in me. and the moonlight sonata phrasing reminds me of my mom playing it.
	5:58pm Ochre Ogre: Had a Schott motorcycle jacket from the 70's for ages, as all of "Andy's children" did. Even wore it to the MOMA opening party of his retrospective.
	👻 5:59pm chris: thanks, Fabio!
	5:59pm Linda Lee: gee hadn't thought of Andy's jacket at all!
	5:59pm dale: ....and it's all china's fault that our execs off shore everything to them?
	5:59pm Loquitur: Great set
