	7:01pm Michael 98145: tear down that wall, kids
	7:01pm Rich in Washington: Gary!
	7:02pm LambdaCalculus: After a week at my job's new office, I could do with a cold beer and some cool music!
	🇰🇷 7:02pm WR: Hi all.
	7:04pm StringOFperils: Ahhh, the ol' bodega....hello everyone.
	7:04pm northguineahills: When I stayed my friend's place, she was two blocks from the old Berlin Wall (as you know, they still mark a line w/ bronze of where the wall used to stand).
	7:06pm Gary: Evening, James, Chresti, zzmz, Michael, Rich, WR, StringOfperils, and NGH!
	🇰🇷 7:09pm david w: Decompressing here, packing up, and already lost in Ost!
	7:10pm Gary: David!
	7:11pm northguineahills: ost deustche, beste deustche (I have a reddit moderator tag w/ the West Virginian flag [where I was born], as "best virginia")
	7:12pm Michael 98145: "Sez the neighbor, is that Zappa?"
	7:14pm LambdaCalculus: Kitty's looking for food; gotta feed her.
	7:15pm northguineahills: Ok, Steve Tyler sounds like Zappa and Johnathan Richman?
	7:17pm tim abdellah: Hello all you fine folks! Enjoying this Tylor!
	🇰🇷 7:17pm chresti: Oer Jonathan Richman
	7:17pm coelacanth∅: hey Gary and all
	7:18pm Gary: Tim and coelacanth!
	🇰🇷 7:20pm WR: Mr. Tylor is his own man but for me Daniel Johnston is also a point of reference.
	7:22pm LambdaCalculus: I'm liking this album!
	7:23pm northguineahills: Fat fingers, do me in again, chresti (or autocarrot).
	7:23pm northguineahills: Ok, now we're in R Stevie Moore territory...
	7:23pm Asheville Jon: this is a nice set, really enjoying it
	7:23pm northguineahills: what Lambda said. This is all over the place in a good way...
	7:24pm Gary: Asheville Jon!
	7:26pm Asheville Jon: it's good sweet potato pie eatin' music
	7:27pm βrian: I've been enjoying it, too, but I've no idea why. I like it when that happens.
	7:28pm Gary: βrian!
	🇰🇷 8:04pm WR: Asheville Jon, I can't think of any music that isn't good with good sweet potato pie.
	8:06pm Franco Twinkie: Hi Gary. I'm mesmerized by this picture of the kids playing by the wall.
	8:06pm Gary: Franco T!
	8:06pm Franco Twinkie: ..and I love the music too!
	8:10pm Franco Twinkie: All these primitive electro sounds are so quaint and wonderful. They don't exactly create a sense of menace at this remove. If that was even the point.
	8:13pm Gary: Yeah, I think these guys in particular are having a lot of fun; spiritual cousins w/Messer fur Frau Muller, kind of
	8:14pm Franco Twinkie: I can help imagine what kind of gear they had at their disposal. Kind of like some of the earliest Devo.
	🇰🇷 8:15pm WR: This aggregation, AG Geige, is quite theatrical.
	🇰🇷 8:16pm chresti: I was just thinking that, WR.
	8:19pm Gary: Residents Commercial Album-sounding here
	8:21pm Franco Twinkie: Mid-range clatter. No bass I can discern. Plus all the tinker-toy ratcheting is very amusing.
	🇰🇷 8:21pm WR: And i too have looked repeatedly at the kids by the wall photo. Looking for any clues as to circumstances. Being not so tall, don't think it is The wall, but still something serious with the barbed wire topping.
	🇰🇷 8:23pm chresti: I like the Messer fur Alle or something..Schlager
	8:23pm Franco Twinkie: WR, you just know that kids been kids, they were always flinging all sorts of crap over to the other side.
	🇰🇷 8:27pm chresti: Would they get electrocuted if they touched the wire?
	8:29pm Franco Twinkie: I have two friends who were there when the wall came down. They both said the people crossing over were giddy and disoriented.
	🇰🇷 8:29pm WR: Yes, my brothers would be throwing all kinds of things over, the photo appears to be by Henri Cartier-Bresson, made soon after the Berlin Wall was erected.
	🇰🇷 8:34pm chresti: Where are those kids now?
	8:34pm Franco Twinkie: Chresti loves noise music, me not so much, but this is oddly compelling to me. I guess it's lack of sonic abrasion is what I like.
	🇰🇷 8:35pm chresti: Some not all noise.
	🇰🇷 8:41pm chresti: I guess the kids grew up and started bands.
	8:42pm Ike: Mmmm, torta!
	8:46pm Gary: Ike!
	🇰🇷 8:57pm WR: Your question about the kids in the photo (who would be about my age) reminds me of article in NYT in 2019 for the 30th anniversary of the wall coming down that in part was an interview with a man who was in an iconic photo of East Germans celebrating the wall coming down. People had focused on the photo as being similar to the end of WWII Times Square photo of a sailor kissing a nurse.
	🇰🇷 9:00pm WR: While the sailor and nurse didn't know each other, the young East Germans were friends. The man said he had lost track of his woman friend within a year or so after the wall came down. His life had turned out pretty grim.
	🇰🇷 9:25pm WR: This band, Wartburgs für Walter, definitely inspired by Brit. punk bands.
	🇰🇷 9:27pm WR: Would assume most of these were originally distributed on cassettes.
	9:30pm tim abdellah: The last Wartburgs track sounds like a tape loop manipulation of "When The Whip Comes Down" by the Rolling Stones
	9:32pm Gary: Oh, yes, it did, Tim
	9:34pm Gary: A portion of tonight's music came from the terrific blog Tape Attack: tapeattack.blogspot.com
	9:34pm Gary: Stick around after tonight's show for Sam Segal's If You Lose Your Horse. Tonight's episode: "The Elephant in the Horse": wfmu.org...
	🇰🇷 9:41pm WR: I like this tune but the band name Karl Marx Stadt Studio Big Band makes me love it.
	9:44pm coelacanth∅: regarding questions about the wall earlier - the wall started out smaller, less treacherous and gradually got added to over time, so this picture is probably c.1961-62? and the electricity wasn't added yet, but when it was it wasn't to the wires immediately accessible to the people.
	9:45pm coelacanth∅: ...i saw a diagram once but i can't find it now
	9:46pm Gary: Oh, wow, I didn't know that, Ceolacanth
	🇰🇷 9:47pm WR: Gotta go sort and bag recycling & garbage, will be listening but no keyboarding for a while. Thank you Gary, very interesting show. Laters all.
	9:48pm Gary: Many happy "returns," WR
	🇰🇷 9:51pm chresti: Later WR.
	9:53pm coelacanth∅: 4laffs.com...
	9:53pm tim abdellah: Gotta run - Thx for the tunes, Gary. G'nite all!
	9:54pm northguineahills: Thanks, Gary (sorry, fell asleep).
	9:54pm Gary: Night, Tim! Ceolacanth, thanks for that diagram
	🇰🇷 9:54pm chresti: Jeez, stop escapees, coel.
	9:55pm coelacanth∅: i don't know why this link is called "4laffs" but it's a diagram of the wall, in places where there was enough space for this. (in some places the wall was just the side of a building with the windows bricked-over)
	🇰🇷 9:55pm chresti: This one is getting proggy
	9:56pm northguineahills: @coel: after the hot air balloon escape in the 70s, they had they had to train the DDR guards to look upwards as well....
	🇰🇷 9:57pm chresti: Thanks Gary, dreary fun!
	9:57pm LambdaCalculus: Thanks for the tunes, Gary!
	9:58pm StringOFperils: Danke schon, Gary !
	9:58pm coelacanth∅: this diagram doesn't mention the "death strip"
	9:59pm coelacanth∅: Thanks Gary!
	10:00pm Gary: Night, everyone!
