Listener comments!
	♥ 6:01pm TDK60: Hello, Don O.
	♥ 6:02pm Joey!: Hey Don! Hey World's Fair fans!!!
	6:02pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @6:01 Hay, TDK60!
	6:03pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:02 Welcome to Tomorrow....or what's left of it!
	6:04pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:02 Joey, are you from that NYWF group over in FB?
	♥ 6:04pm TDK60: I went to the '64 World's Fair in Flushing, Queens, NYC several times. I lived nearby in NJ. What a trip, then. I realized many many years later a band I saw in a pavilion was Jimmy Cliff!
	6:05pm Don-O: I hope you guys don't mind a little stop over in Seattle for a spell.
	♥ 6:06pm Joey!: Yes. I feel bad about what i saw posted here. Are you on that site too Don?
	♥ 6:06pm TDK60: ..and believe it or not, I saw a civil rights protest outside a pavilion of a Southern state. Arkansas, I think it was. A cousin I was with said the protesters were assholes. I knew they weren't.
	♥ 6:10pm TDK60: ..At the Greek pavilion my mom let me have some ouzo liquor (even though I was around 11) and I got the worst headache ever.
	♥ 6:10pm Joey!: It happens. It's a great site though and so many rare photos of the 64 Fair. Lot's of collectors! When i saw you were doing this on my favorite radio station...nice!!!
	6:10pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mile-A-Minute Monorail" by "Attilio Mineo" Be warned as I'll be mispronouncing this mans name ...
	6:12pm Don-O: It was a fan made 50th anniversary badge I use with my picture on it about 8 years ago. This Seth also left a trits about 6 posts long going through his emotional ride. I took them off.
	♥ 6:13pm TDK60: ..I was real impressed by the exhibits by the Big Corporations. Very futuristic. A Jetsons utopia in my head. Hee.
	6:13pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Cafe in The Sky" by "Kelly Gates" I'm becoming addicted to listening to this cheap drum machine!!
	♥ 6:14pm David in California: Hello, Don-O. I'm glad I visited early and saw your first design. I'm sorry you had to remove it. Blame it on the bogdanova.
	♥ 6:15pm TDK60: Thanks for letting me spill some of my World's Fair memory images. A year later I saw the Beatles at nearby Shea Stadium.
	6:16pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:10 NYWF and WFMU?! You, sir, are hard core East Coast!!
	♥ 6:17pm Joey!: Loved the Dinosaurs at the 64 Fair. Ill never forget them..then saw then again when they toured all the shopping centers in Jersey. Thanks, im a regular on a couple of great shows here, especially Double Dip!
	6:20pm Don-O: The only REAL memory I have of Flushing Meadows is on a NYC trip in 2008. Even though 95% of the fair is gone, I was in urban utopia and took many pictures.....until the batteries in my camera gave out.
	6:21pm Mr Fab: Yo, Don-O! Great concept for a show. Esp. now that we really are in the 21st Century and everything sounds like this now.
	6:21pm Don-O: Oh, I heard THAT one was a bit of a stinker.....
	6:22pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:21 Accordions Forever!!
	♥ 6:23pm Joey!: 3 years ago i actually made it to the top of the New York State Pavilion Towers!! Incredible!!!!
	♥ 6:24pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @6:20 Don-O: I think the metal Earth globe sculpture and a tower are still there.
	6:24pm Mr Fab: I found those World's Fair pictures disks with "Gayway Twist," etc when visiting Seattle in late '90s. They found em in a warehouse and were in mint condition. And I paid a mint for 'em! But totally worth it.
	6:24pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:23 THAT must have been cool! Well, I did make it to see that NYC miniature piece!
	🎸 ♥ 6:25pm Asheville Jon: ↳ Don-O @6:21 might have been, who knows. i was 14, away from my parents, and interested in other things like girls and whatnot. i think i saw some of the world's fair.
	6:25pm Don-O: I even took pictures of the plates naming the pathways allover the park! I'm kinda glad you can't post pictures in the chat room/
	♥ 6:25pm Joey!: ↳ Don-O @6:24 It really was. Totally unexpected...you could hear the iron groaning as we climbed up!! Shaky, rusted stairs, but we made it!!!
	🎸 ♥ 6:26pm Kat in the chat: working late and glad to have this Crap to listen to
	6:27pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @6:26 Hey, Kat. Not too much crap to worry about if this is blasting through our your office.
	♥ 6:29pm Joey!: Loving this show!!
	6:29pm Don-O: Seattle, pre-Nirvana!!
	🎸 ♥ 6:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Don-O @6:27 It's my personal office haha, I am a 100% remote worker at this time (took my Chicago job with me to Philly)
	6:30pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @6:29 So much for 'TOMORROW!"
	🎸 ♥ 6:31pm Asheville Jon: he'll buy the WHAT and popcorn????
	♥ 6:31pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Take Me To The Fair" by "Elvis Presley" Were some Ozzie & Harriet moms and dads trying to shield their kids from this edgy rock and roll?
	6:32pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @6:31 Rock & Roll? Where?!
	♥ 6:33pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @6:32 Hee. The King. You know, Elvis.
	♥ 6:34pm Joey!: The monorail left over from the 62 Fair has a seat sign that tells you Elvis sat here!
	6:34pm Mr Fab: In Seattle, I did indeed take the Monorail to the Space Needle, then elevator to the top of it. As Space Age as anything I'll ever do, short of actually going into space. And even that might not be as Space Age...
	♥ 6:34pm TDK60: Maybe by '64 Elvis seemed okay for parents, compared to those Rolling Stones and their hair reaching their collars. Oh my!
	6:35pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:34 Hey, good enough for me!!
	♥ 6:35pm Joey!: ↳ TDK60 @6:34 Good point TDK!!
	6:37pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Take That Monorail Ride" by "Suzie & The Night Owls" LaLaLaLaLaZOOOOOOOOOOMLaLaLa
	🎸 ♥ 6:39pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Malaguena" by "The Space Neddle Carillon" ooh I like this
	6:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Asheville Jon @6:31 it does sound like Elvis is singing "I'll bring the penis and popcorn." And maybe he was..? Snuck it past the censors, perhaps?
	♥ 6:43pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Malaguena" by "The Space Neddle Carillon" Wow, I don't hear carillons much. But not very futuristic.
	6:44pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" \|Yowles"??
	6:45pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" Is this from a Hanna-Barbara show?!
	6:46pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" Was that a redaction?!
	6:47pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @6:46 You're opening a 6-pack o' trouble there, pal. Oh, and welcome to the ride of the future.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm WR: Hi Don-O and all.
	6:48pm Mr Fab: my mom grew up in Flushing, and walked by the Trylon and Perisphere (as they are known) all the time. Groucho name-checked it in "Lydia The Tattooed Lady": "Here is Grover Whalen unveilin' the Trilon..."
	6:48pm Listener Robert: ↳ Listener Robert @6:46 "When you stepped out of the [][][][][?"
	🎸 ♥ 6:50pm Asheville Jon: The Monorail song on the Simpsons!
	6:50pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @6:47 A beer Dan-O doesn't want to plug?
	6:51pm Don-O: IIIII could be wrong here!
	🎸 ♥ 6:52pm dale: hey now. better late than never. i have a bunch of ny worlds far crap - glasses, ash tray, airplane vinyl tote, bolo tie...
	🎸 ♥ 6:53pm Roberto: !O-Don pus'
	🎸 ♥ 6:53pm Roberto: O-noD tnaem I
	6:53pm Don-O: ↳ dale @6:52 Lucky You, dale!....and welcome!
	🎸 ♥ 6:54pm Roberto: Wait, are we not doing that this week?
	♥ 6:54pm TDK60: Oh yeah, Robert Moses. How could I forget?
	6:54pm Listener Robert: To say the 1964 World's Fair was planned only since 1958 is an understatement in consideration of its including buildings that left up since the 1939-40 fair.
	6:54pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @6:53 wonk t'not I!
	6:55pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @6:53 I see there are a few survivors from my reverse show from last week.
	🎸 ♥ 6:55pm dale: robert moses - the master builder.
	♥ 6:56pm TDK60: "Three people living in a dumpy apartment in Paris"?! Had Moses been to see "La Boheme"?
	♥ 6:59pm Joey!: Love those recordings by Ray..i think there are two vols.
	7:02pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:59 I got a copy of his The Vault III JUST before my NYC trip in 2008. I had most of this playing in my MP3 player while wondering through Flushing Park. Trippy and cool! Fanboy heaven....
	🎸 ♥ 7:05pm dale: i've heard some air checks of sheperd where he goes on about the chinese restaurant not far from your midtown where you can get a good helping of chop suey at a very reasonable price before or after your broadway theater experience.
	7:09pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Les Poupees De Paris barker" by "Ray Dashner" I remember that annoying barker.
	🎸 ♥ 7:09pm Cp304: Heya Don-O and peoples
	🎸 ♥ 7:11pm Cp304: is this kenzo message just for me or part of the crap?
	🎸 ♥ 7:12pm dale: this guy is a real salesman!
	7:13pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:09 Heyo, Cp304!!
	7:14pm Carmichael: Been listening, waiting for the kick line! Heya Don O and Crappers.
	7:15pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" by "Walt ... That one was stunning if for no other reason than the illusion that the stage was turning, when actually the audience rotated around the stage.
	7:15pm Mr Fab: Pretty wild show today, Don-O - Playing everything forwards instead of all-backwards, like last week. You nut, you'll try anything!
	7:21pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 3" by "Jean Shrpherd" I think Shep was trying to weave in a little Washington Irving there.
	🎸 ♥ 7:24pm Cp304: i bet Jean didn't need no stinking iphone to read his lines.. like some of these new age rappers do
	7:27pm Don-O: I just got an e-mail from Seth claiming the Unisphere on that badge was a recreation, therefor he owns it. Thanks for the warning?
	🎸 ♥ 7:28pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:27 <-- rolls eyes
	♥ 7:29pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Suite: Unisphere" by "Ferde Grofé" I had no idea Grofé did a piece.
	7:32pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @7:27 hey mr Seth: no one owns anything on the internet, dude. You'd think as a World's Fair enthusiast, you'd know what it's like here in the 21st Century. The World of Tomorrow! Where anything that is on the internet is there forever, totally out of your hands!
	7:32pm Don-O: Oh, and he's claiming I removed his copyright on my badge. So, much for that moving on jazz.
	♥ 7:33pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Suite: Unisphere" by "Ferde Grofé" I think it's pronounced GrowFAY. He did the Grand Canyon classical piece.
	♥ 7:33pm Joey!: ↳ Don-O @7:27 That's crazy!
	7:35pm Carmichael: Well, he’ll be dead soon, so it won’t matter
	♥ 7:37pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Magic Skyway" by "Walt Disney Productions" I think I went on this ride.
	🎸 ♥ 7:37pm dale: the 64 galaxie convertible was sweet. my sister made 3 dollars an hour and could buy one new off the dealer lot when she was 18.
	7:39pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Magic Skyway" by "Walt Disney Productions" I'm so use to hear this in mono. Kinda bonkers to got into Stereoland with this one.
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Kat in the chat: he says "reptile" weird
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Kat in the chat: rep-tull
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:39 sounds good on the monitors
	7:41pm Listener Robert: When you mentioned a ride and dinosaurs, I thought it was going to be about those dino-cars sponsored by Sinclair Oil.
	7:41pm Mr Fab: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:40 he's probably one of those people who pronounce 'robot' like "row-bit."
	🎸 ♥ 7:42pm dale: wonderful world of disney was necessary viewing after lassie on sunday night. then if you could stay up late enough you could see mccloud or mcmillan and wife.
	♥ 7:43pm TDK60: They must've been in a 1964 hurry to go from dinosaurs to Man. What about those giant mammals in between?
	🎸 ♥ 7:46pm dale: does anyone know who today's postmaster general is? is that supposed to be a revered position today? and not just someone to blame for postage rates and bitch about?
	7:48pm Don-O: ↳ dale @7:46 I suspect it's the same guy who was appointed by Trump and tried to dismantle the mail sorters.....or something....202 was pretty fucked up.
	7:50pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Holiday #9" by "?????" That fusion power reactor was the exit from, juat a flight down the ramp, from the Carousel of Progress we heard earlier. No matter how many times we were reminded it was just a simulation, I had a sneaking suspicion then we were all being irradiated by neutrons.
	🎸 ♥ 7:51pm Cp304: @Mr Fab " the kitchen of tomorrow is calling me"
	♥ 7:51pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @7:48 I think I heard Biden has failed to get rid of that internal Trump saboteur, so far. Dale, I don't know if he's the actual postmaster. He may be the head of the postal board.
	🎸 ♥ 7:51pm dale: ↳ Don-O @7:48 this show must have taken some serious time to piece together.
	7:52pm Carmichael: If he’s appointed by Drumpf, then he’s not there now.
	7:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ Cp304 @7:51 Ha, thanks for remembering that one!
	🎸 ♥ 7:53pm Roberto: ↳ Carmichael @7:52 Louis DeJoy (ironic surname). He's still fucking there.
	7:54pm Carmichael: I watched Wonderful World of Color in black and white. Big Daddy severely miscalculated the advent of color TV.
	7:54pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Futurama II" by "Ray Dashner" Strap in folks. This is a long one!! There were a few long rides Ray capture that I don't have room for here. I might have to do a part 2 show next week!
	🎸 ♥ 7:56pm dale: this sounds like sydney blackmer.
	7:57pm Mr Fab: an undersea hotel might be a bit of a tough sell nowadays.
	7:58pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 .......it's all about timing.....
	🎸 ♥ 7:58pm Cp304: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 yeah, too soon?
	🎸 ♥ 7:59pm dale: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 mermaid....maids. that's the draw
	♥ 7:59pm TDK60: I just looked on Wikipedia and DeJoy is still postmaster. But Biden appointed two to the postal board of governors, Kan and Tangherlini, in May 2022. They may vote to replace DeJoy.
	🎸 ♥ 7:59pm Kat in the chat: Same here!
	7:59pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:58 There's a Bill Hicks FB group I belong to and they are having a beer cagger over this news.
	🎸 ♥ 8:00pm Kat in the chat: "Same here" was for Charmichael regarding watching WWOColor in B&W
	8:01pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Futurama II" by "Ray Dashner" They're certainly winging it at point!
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm Kat in the chat: lol I misspelled Carmichael
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm dale: commerce always comes first.
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:59 oh boy.. l do love Bill.. rip
	8:02pm Carmichael: Yep, we would disappear to the neighbors every Sunday evening, bedazzled by tints and shades of. Colors … 😵‍💫
	🎸 ♥ 8:04pm Cp304: "i wanna get this insane noise out there" I already love it
	8:04pm Carmichael: Nothing says World’s Fair like dixieland jazz piano.
	8:04pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" Ah, the Greyhound jingle.
	8:04pm Don-O: BTW, that Paris puppet show is produced by Sid & Marty Kroft.
	8:05pm Carmichael: Just like aSteppenwolf concert.
	🎸 ♥ 8:06pm Cp304: Muzak over the Mind.. that's a good album title
	8:06pm Mr Fab: "the sound of falling bodies"?!
	♥ 8:07pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" A lot of promising about the Future. I forgot about the constant Muzak! I recall some greasy pastries at the Mexican pavilion.
	♥ 8:07pm Joey!: ..today, the only sound you hear in the park is that damn Mr. Softee truck!
	8:10pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mr Fab @8:06 visit the Suicide Pavilion of Tomorrow.
	8:10pm Don-O: Oh, yea. I was just reminded that yesterday was the 50th anniversary of The Enchanted Tiki Room! It was supposed to have been at the fair, but was rejected and was sent to Disneyland.
	8:11pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" My memories, inflluenced by silent 16 mm movies and so forth, had erased the sounds on the plazas, but indeed it was every bit as loud as Shep said, such that it was had to keep a crowd together by verbal instructions. I own the 78 flexi-disc, "The Triumph of Man", and played it for guests one July 4 in the 1990s. They all though it was corny except for me and my friend Peter, who thought it impressive.
	8:11pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "The Triumph Of Man (side 2)" by "Travelers Insura... Peter Thomas continues to live beyond our existence!! That guy was everywhere!!
	🎸 ♥ 8:11pm dale: black plague, diarrhea, bleeding from the eyes....yay!
	8:12pm Carmichael: I live near a park, and the friggin’ ice cream man drives by several times per day. Turkey In the Straw and The Entertainer …
	8:12pm Listener Robert: ↳ Listener Robert @8:11 Sorry, I meant 45 rpm. I was playing 78s for them otherwise, hence the confusion.
	🎸 ♥ 8:12pm Cp304: old school propaganda was much better than todays see thru ish.. to think, education for death was mid 40's
	🎸 ♥ 8:13pm dale: ↳ Carmichael @8:12 does the state of marvin hamlisch get royalties?
	🎸 ♥ 8:14pm Cp304: ↳ Cp304 @8:12 yet the same message.. "democracy" smh
	8:14pm Carmichael: Free ice cream for life.
	8:16pm Carmichael: Pat Boone and Eddie Albert …
	🎸 ♥ 8:16pm dale: i have 'eddie albert sings and narrates americana.' the narrating is okay...
	♥ 8:17pm TDK60: Oh the GE building. Wasn't there a stage with an Abraham Lincoln dummy talking?
	8:17pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @8:10 1973? It’s gotta be older than that.
	🎸 ♥ 8:18pm dale: this is very bathtubs over broadway.
	8:19pm Carmichael: The Tiki Room was 1970 or so. Just sayin’ …
	♥ 8:20pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 Or, was that the Bell building?
	🎸 ♥ 8:20pm dale: margo albert - born María Marguerita Guadalupe Teresa Estela Bolado Castilla y O'Donnell
	8:21pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 The Lincoln show was at the Illinois theater.
	8:21pm Carmichael: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel had a great stage show exalting the wonders of waste management.
	8:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 Good thing it wasn't sponsored by Ford Motors. Cuz then it might have been called The Ford Theater...
	🎸 ♥ 8:27pm Cp304: watch out Mr Watson..
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm dale: these voice actors sound super familiar.
	8:28pm Carmichael: Watson, could you text me?
	🎸 ♥ 8:29pm Cp304: "a people network".. someone play that for Seth..
	8:29pm Carmichael: Sounds a little like Gary Collins
	♥ 8:29pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Bell Systems" by "Ray Dashner" Thanks Don. Illinois. I just recalled: one of the Big Corp exhibits (maybe Bell) had a booth you could go in and when you talked it made your voice sound different with different tones. People outside the booth would laugh at you. I did it. So Futuristic. (Like some WFMU DJs do now! The promise of the future.)
	8:30pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @8:29 That might sounds like AT&T. They had something like that at Seattle.
	8:30pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Bell Systems" by "Ray Dashner" Stuff like this makes me cry, because it's so uplifting. I've always received it in the same spirit it was conceived in,
	8:30pm Carmichael: Or maybe Efram Zimbalist Jr.
	🎸 ♥ 8:32pm dale: ↳ Carmichael @8:30 i only paid attention to stephanie zimbalist.
	8:32pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @8:30 I can understand that. Stuff like this got to you before you grew up and ended up a cynical old fart.
	🎸 ♥ 8:33pm dale: wow - really pushing 'murica and apple pie and jeebus here.
	♥ 8:34pm TDK60: My dad was a jazz hepcat. I wonder if he was amused by some of this music.
	🎸 ♥ 8:34pm Cp304: it's crazy i recently bought computer music mag which has pages of description how to inject old radio noise in your final mix via several plug ins
	8:34pm Carmichael: Here’s a treasure trove of a link: http://www.nywf64.com/Image/bell/funatthefair1964.pdf
	🎸 ♥ 8:35pm Cp304: wipe out
	8:35pm Listener Robert: I just got home from having done on me a great product of technology and human skill: catheter ablation to resolve atrial fibrillation. It's amazing to me even though -- or maybe because -- I'm a scientist.
	🎸 ♥ 8:36pm dale: ↳ Cp304 @8:35 my wife and i both said that at the same time as you posted it!
	♥ 8:37pm TDK60: There was only an Africa pavilion? No wonder many of us think Africa is a country.
	8:38pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @8:17 UT! My bad. Make that 60th anniversary.
	8:38pm Listener Robert: ↳ TDK60 @8:37 No, there were a couple from particular African countries: Egypt and I forgot the others.
	🎸 ♥ 8:39pm Cp304: ↳ dale @8:36 time to play those Toms
	8:39pm Carmichael: The narrator was Hal Holbrook: http://www.nywf64.com/bell11.html
	♥ 8:40pm TDK60: ↳ Listener Robert @8:38 Oh thanks, Listener Robert. That was Shepherd's comment.
	🎸 ♥ 8:41pm Cp304: "carcupine" lol
	♥ 8:46pm TDK60: There was that Expo '67 in Montreal. My dad and brother went.
	♥ 8:47pm TDK60: Thanks for lettin' me recall the Future, Don-O!
	8:47pm Listener Robert: ↳ TDK60 @8:40 I may have gotten Egypt wrong. But Sudan and Morocco had them, according to www.nywf64.com...
	🎸 ♥ 8:47pm dale: thanks for the crap! really takes one back...
	8:49pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @8:46 Yup, Expo 67, but I couldn't find any recordings of that place.
	8:49pm Carmichael: My parents would play Brazil 66 while entertaining
	8:50pm Don-O: Okay, it looks like I might do part 2 of this show as there was a whole bunch I couldn't fit here.
	🎸 ♥ 8:50pm Roberto: ↳ Song: "What The World Need Now/Pretty World" by "Sergio ... Not bad, but it's no Fayelord '66.
	8:51pm Carmichael: Grassy ass, Don.
	8:52pm Mr Fab: ↳ Song: "What The World Need Now/Pretty World" by "Sergio ... Featuring Lani Hall, who GeorgyGirl just saw with Herb Alpert.
	8:54pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "What The World Need Now/Pretty World" by "Sergio ... Pretty World is so uplifting that when I first heard it, I almost cried. I has just lost my retail job.
	🎸 ♥ 8:55pm dale: very variety hour cover here.
	8:55pm Don-O: My thanks to all (except Seth) for showing up and taking that journey through the dustfields o' tomorrow! We might have to repeat this journey next week. See what happens....

Listener comments!
	♥ 6:01pm TDK60: Hello, Don O.
	♥ 6:02pm Joey!: Hey Don! Hey World's Fair fans!!!
	6:02pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @6:01 Hay, TDK60!
	6:03pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:02 Welcome to Tomorrow....or what's left of it!
	6:04pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:02 Joey, are you from that NYWF group over in FB?
	♥ 6:04pm TDK60: I went to the '64 World's Fair in Flushing, Queens, NYC several times. I lived nearby in NJ. What a trip, then. I realized many many years later a band I saw in a pavilion was Jimmy Cliff!
	6:05pm Don-O: I hope you guys don't mind a little stop over in Seattle for a spell.
	♥ 6:06pm Joey!: Yes. I feel bad about what i saw posted here. Are you on that site too Don?
	♥ 6:06pm TDK60: ..and believe it or not, I saw a civil rights protest outside a pavilion of a Southern state. Arkansas, I think it was. A cousin I was with said the protesters were assholes. I knew they weren't.
	♥ 6:10pm TDK60: ..At the Greek pavilion my mom let me have some ouzo liquor (even though I was around 11) and I got the worst headache ever.
	♥ 6:10pm Joey!: It happens. It's a great site though and so many rare photos of the 64 Fair. Lot's of collectors! When i saw you were doing this on my favorite radio station...nice!!!
	6:10pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mile-A-Minute Monorail" by "Attilio Mineo" Be warned as I'll be mispronouncing this mans name ...
	6:12pm Don-O: It was a fan made 50th anniversary badge I use with my picture on it about 8 years ago. This Seth also left a trits about 6 posts long going through his emotional ride. I took them off.
	♥ 6:13pm TDK60: ..I was real impressed by the exhibits by the Big Corporations. Very futuristic. A Jetsons utopia in my head. Hee.
	6:13pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Cafe in The Sky" by "Kelly Gates" I'm becoming addicted to listening to this cheap drum machine!!
	♥ 6:14pm David in California: Hello, Don-O. I'm glad I visited early and saw your first design. I'm sorry you had to remove it. Blame it on the bogdanova.
	♥ 6:15pm TDK60: Thanks for letting me spill some of my World's Fair memory images. A year later I saw the Beatles at nearby Shea Stadium.
	6:16pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:10 NYWF and WFMU?! You, sir, are hard core East Coast!!
	♥ 6:17pm Joey!: Loved the Dinosaurs at the 64 Fair. Ill never forget them..then saw then again when they toured all the shopping centers in Jersey. Thanks, im a regular on a couple of great shows here, especially Double Dip!
	6:20pm Don-O: The only REAL memory I have of Flushing Meadows is on a NYC trip in 2008. Even though 95% of the fair is gone, I was in urban utopia and took many pictures.....until the batteries in my camera gave out.
	6:21pm Mr Fab: Yo, Don-O! Great concept for a show. Esp. now that we really are in the 21st Century and everything sounds like this now.
	6:21pm Don-O: Oh, I heard THAT one was a bit of a stinker.....
	6:22pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:21 Accordions Forever!!
	♥ 6:23pm Joey!: 3 years ago i actually made it to the top of the New York State Pavilion Towers!! Incredible!!!!
	♥ 6:24pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @6:20 Don-O: I think the metal Earth globe sculpture and a tower are still there.
	6:24pm Mr Fab: I found those World's Fair pictures disks with "Gayway Twist," etc when visiting Seattle in late '90s. They found em in a warehouse and were in mint condition. And I paid a mint for 'em! But totally worth it.
	6:24pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:23 THAT must have been cool! Well, I did make it to see that NYC miniature piece!
	🎸 ♥ 6:25pm Asheville Jon: ↳ Don-O @6:21 might have been, who knows. i was 14, away from my parents, and interested in other things like girls and whatnot. i think i saw some of the world's fair.
	6:25pm Don-O: I even took pictures of the plates naming the pathways allover the park! I'm kinda glad you can't post pictures in the chat room/
	♥ 6:25pm Joey!: ↳ Don-O @6:24 It really was. Totally unexpected...you could hear the iron groaning as we climbed up!! Shaky, rusted stairs, but we made it!!!
	🎸 ♥ 6:26pm Kat in the chat: working late and glad to have this Crap to listen to
	6:27pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @6:26 Hey, Kat. Not too much crap to worry about if this is blasting through our your office.
	♥ 6:29pm Joey!: Loving this show!!
	6:29pm Don-O: Seattle, pre-Nirvana!!
	🎸 ♥ 6:29pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Don-O @6:27 It's my personal office haha, I am a 100% remote worker at this time (took my Chicago job with me to Philly)
	6:30pm Don-O: ↳ Kat in the chat @6:29 So much for 'TOMORROW!"
	🎸 ♥ 6:31pm Asheville Jon: he'll buy the WHAT and popcorn????
	♥ 6:31pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Take Me To The Fair" by "Elvis Presley" Were some Ozzie & Harriet moms and dads trying to shield their kids from this edgy rock and roll?
	6:32pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @6:31 Rock & Roll? Where?!
	♥ 6:33pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @6:32 Hee. The King. You know, Elvis.
	♥ 6:34pm Joey!: The monorail left over from the 62 Fair has a seat sign that tells you Elvis sat here!
	6:34pm Mr Fab: In Seattle, I did indeed take the Monorail to the Space Needle, then elevator to the top of it. As Space Age as anything I'll ever do, short of actually going into space. And even that might not be as Space Age...
	♥ 6:34pm TDK60: Maybe by '64 Elvis seemed okay for parents, compared to those Rolling Stones and their hair reaching their collars. Oh my!
	6:35pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @6:34 Hey, good enough for me!!
	♥ 6:35pm Joey!: ↳ TDK60 @6:34 Good point TDK!!
	6:37pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Take That Monorail Ride" by "Suzie & The Night Owls" LaLaLaLaLaZOOOOOOOOOOMLaLaLa
	🎸 ♥ 6:39pm Kat in the chat: ↳ Song: "Malaguena" by "The Space Neddle Carillon" ooh I like this
	6:40pm Mr Fab: ↳ Asheville Jon @6:31 it does sound like Elvis is singing "I'll bring the penis and popcorn." And maybe he was..? Snuck it past the censors, perhaps?
	♥ 6:43pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Malaguena" by "The Space Neddle Carillon" Wow, I don't hear carillons much. But not very futuristic.
	6:44pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" \|Yowles"??
	6:45pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" Is this from a Hanna-Barbara show?!
	6:46pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Mister Here (From Way Out There)" by "Mister Here" Was that a redaction?!
	6:47pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @6:46 You're opening a 6-pack o' trouble there, pal. Oh, and welcome to the ride of the future.
	🎸 ♥ 6:48pm WR: Hi Don-O and all.
	6:48pm Mr Fab: my mom grew up in Flushing, and walked by the Trylon and Perisphere (as they are known) all the time. Groucho name-checked it in "Lydia The Tattooed Lady": "Here is Grover Whalen unveilin' the Trilon..."
	6:48pm Listener Robert: ↳ Listener Robert @6:46 "When you stepped out of the [][][][][?"
	🎸 ♥ 6:50pm Asheville Jon: The Monorail song on the Simpsons!
	6:50pm Listener Robert: ↳ Don-O @6:47 A beer Dan-O doesn't want to plug?
	6:51pm Don-O: IIIII could be wrong here!
	🎸 ♥ 6:52pm dale: hey now. better late than never. i have a bunch of ny worlds far crap - glasses, ash tray, airplane vinyl tote, bolo tie...
	🎸 ♥ 6:53pm Roberto: !O-Don pus'
	🎸 ♥ 6:53pm Roberto: O-noD tnaem I
	6:53pm Don-O: ↳ dale @6:52 Lucky You, dale!....and welcome!
	🎸 ♥ 6:54pm Roberto: Wait, are we not doing that this week?
	♥ 6:54pm TDK60: Oh yeah, Robert Moses. How could I forget?
	6:54pm Listener Robert: To say the 1964 World's Fair was planned only since 1958 is an understatement in consideration of its including buildings that left up since the 1939-40 fair.
	6:54pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @6:53 wonk t'not I!
	6:55pm Don-O: ↳ Roberto @6:53 I see there are a few survivors from my reverse show from last week.
	🎸 ♥ 6:55pm dale: robert moses - the master builder.
	♥ 6:56pm TDK60: "Three people living in a dumpy apartment in Paris"?! Had Moses been to see "La Boheme"?
	♥ 6:59pm Joey!: Love those recordings by Ray..i think there are two vols.
	7:02pm Don-O: ↳ Joey! @6:59 I got a copy of his The Vault III JUST before my NYC trip in 2008. I had most of this playing in my MP3 player while wondering through Flushing Park. Trippy and cool! Fanboy heaven....
	🎸 ♥ 7:05pm dale: i've heard some air checks of sheperd where he goes on about the chinese restaurant not far from your midtown where you can get a good helping of chop suey at a very reasonable price before or after your broadway theater experience.
	7:09pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Les Poupees De Paris barker" by "Ray Dashner" I remember that annoying barker.
	🎸 ♥ 7:09pm Cp304: Heya Don-O and peoples
	🎸 ♥ 7:11pm Cp304: is this kenzo message just for me or part of the crap?
	🎸 ♥ 7:12pm dale: this guy is a real salesman!
	7:13pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:09 Heyo, Cp304!!
	7:14pm Carmichael: Been listening, waiting for the kick line! Heya Don O and Crappers.
	7:15pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow" by "Walt ... That one was stunning if for no other reason than the illusion that the stage was turning, when actually the audience rotated around the stage.
	7:15pm Mr Fab: Pretty wild show today, Don-O - Playing everything forwards instead of all-backwards, like last week. You nut, you'll try anything!
	7:21pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 3" by "Jean Shrpherd" I think Shep was trying to weave in a little Washington Irving there.
	🎸 ♥ 7:24pm Cp304: i bet Jean didn't need no stinking iphone to read his lines.. like some of these new age rappers do
	7:27pm Don-O: I just got an e-mail from Seth claiming the Unisphere on that badge was a recreation, therefor he owns it. Thanks for the warning?
	🎸 ♥ 7:28pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:27 <-- rolls eyes
	♥ 7:29pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Suite: Unisphere" by "Ferde Grofé" I had no idea Grofé did a piece.
	7:32pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @7:27 hey mr Seth: no one owns anything on the internet, dude. You'd think as a World's Fair enthusiast, you'd know what it's like here in the 21st Century. The World of Tomorrow! Where anything that is on the internet is there forever, totally out of your hands!
	7:32pm Don-O: Oh, and he's claiming I removed his copyright on my badge. So, much for that moving on jazz.
	♥ 7:33pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Suite: Unisphere" by "Ferde Grofé" I think it's pronounced GrowFAY. He did the Grand Canyon classical piece.
	♥ 7:33pm Joey!: ↳ Don-O @7:27 That's crazy!
	7:35pm Carmichael: Well, he’ll be dead soon, so it won’t matter
	♥ 7:37pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Magic Skyway" by "Walt Disney Productions" I think I went on this ride.
	🎸 ♥ 7:37pm dale: the 64 galaxie convertible was sweet. my sister made 3 dollars an hour and could buy one new off the dealer lot when she was 18.
	7:39pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Magic Skyway" by "Walt Disney Productions" I'm so use to hear this in mono. Kinda bonkers to got into Stereoland with this one.
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Kat in the chat: he says "reptile" weird
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Kat in the chat: rep-tull
	🎸 ♥ 7:40pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:39 sounds good on the monitors
	7:41pm Listener Robert: When you mentioned a ride and dinosaurs, I thought it was going to be about those dino-cars sponsored by Sinclair Oil.
	7:41pm Mr Fab: ↳ Kat in the chat @7:40 he's probably one of those people who pronounce 'robot' like "row-bit."
	🎸 ♥ 7:42pm dale: wonderful world of disney was necessary viewing after lassie on sunday night. then if you could stay up late enough you could see mccloud or mcmillan and wife.
	♥ 7:43pm TDK60: They must've been in a 1964 hurry to go from dinosaurs to Man. What about those giant mammals in between?
	🎸 ♥ 7:46pm dale: does anyone know who today's postmaster general is? is that supposed to be a revered position today? and not just someone to blame for postage rates and bitch about?
	7:48pm Don-O: ↳ dale @7:46 I suspect it's the same guy who was appointed by Trump and tried to dismantle the mail sorters.....or something....202 was pretty fucked up.
	7:50pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "World's Fair Holiday #9" by "?????" That fusion power reactor was the exit from, juat a flight down the ramp, from the Carousel of Progress we heard earlier. No matter how many times we were reminded it was just a simulation, I had a sneaking suspicion then we were all being irradiated by neutrons.
	🎸 ♥ 7:51pm Cp304: @Mr Fab " the kitchen of tomorrow is calling me"
	♥ 7:51pm TDK60: ↳ Don-O @7:48 I think I heard Biden has failed to get rid of that internal Trump saboteur, so far. Dale, I don't know if he's the actual postmaster. He may be the head of the postal board.
	🎸 ♥ 7:51pm dale: ↳ Don-O @7:48 this show must have taken some serious time to piece together.
	7:52pm Carmichael: If he’s appointed by Drumpf, then he’s not there now.
	7:53pm Mr Fab: ↳ Cp304 @7:51 Ha, thanks for remembering that one!
	🎸 ♥ 7:53pm Roberto: ↳ Carmichael @7:52 Louis DeJoy (ironic surname). He's still fucking there.
	7:54pm Carmichael: I watched Wonderful World of Color in black and white. Big Daddy severely miscalculated the advent of color TV.
	7:54pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Futurama II" by "Ray Dashner" Strap in folks. This is a long one!! There were a few long rides Ray capture that I don't have room for here. I might have to do a part 2 show next week!
	🎸 ♥ 7:56pm dale: this sounds like sydney blackmer.
	7:57pm Mr Fab: an undersea hotel might be a bit of a tough sell nowadays.
	7:58pm Don-O: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 .......it's all about timing.....
	🎸 ♥ 7:58pm Cp304: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 yeah, too soon?
	🎸 ♥ 7:59pm dale: ↳ Mr Fab @7:57 mermaid....maids. that's the draw
	♥ 7:59pm TDK60: I just looked on Wikipedia and DeJoy is still postmaster. But Biden appointed two to the postal board of governors, Kan and Tangherlini, in May 2022. They may vote to replace DeJoy.
	🎸 ♥ 7:59pm Kat in the chat: Same here!
	7:59pm Don-O: ↳ Cp304 @7:58 There's a Bill Hicks FB group I belong to and they are having a beer cagger over this news.
	🎸 ♥ 8:00pm Kat in the chat: "Same here" was for Charmichael regarding watching WWOColor in B&W
	8:01pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "Futurama II" by "Ray Dashner" They're certainly winging it at point!
	🎸 ♥ 8:01pm Kat in the chat: lol I misspelled Carmichael
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm dale: commerce always comes first.
	🎸 ♥ 8:02pm Cp304: ↳ Don-O @7:59 oh boy.. l do love Bill.. rip
	8:02pm Carmichael: Yep, we would disappear to the neighbors every Sunday evening, bedazzled by tints and shades of. Colors … 😵‍💫
	🎸 ♥ 8:04pm Cp304: "i wanna get this insane noise out there" I already love it
	8:04pm Carmichael: Nothing says World’s Fair like dixieland jazz piano.
	8:04pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" Ah, the Greyhound jingle.
	8:04pm Don-O: BTW, that Paris puppet show is produced by Sid & Marty Kroft.
	8:05pm Carmichael: Just like aSteppenwolf concert.
	🎸 ♥ 8:06pm Cp304: Muzak over the Mind.. that's a good album title
	8:06pm Mr Fab: "the sound of falling bodies"?!
	♥ 8:07pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" A lot of promising about the Future. I forgot about the constant Muzak! I recall some greasy pastries at the Mexican pavilion.
	♥ 8:07pm Joey!: ..today, the only sound you hear in the park is that damn Mr. Softee truck!
	8:10pm Mr Fab: ↳ Mr Fab @8:06 visit the Suicide Pavilion of Tomorrow.
	8:10pm Don-O: Oh, yea. I was just reminded that yesterday was the 50th anniversary of The Enchanted Tiki Room! It was supposed to have been at the fair, but was rejected and was sent to Disneyland.
	8:11pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Sounds From The Fair Pt. 2" by "Jean Shepherd" My memories, inflluenced by silent 16 mm movies and so forth, had erased the sounds on the plazas, but indeed it was every bit as loud as Shep said, such that it was had to keep a crowd together by verbal instructions. I own the 78 flexi-disc, "The Triumph of Man", and played it for guests one July 4 in the 1990s. They all though it was corny except for me and my friend Peter, who thought it impressive.
	8:11pm Don-O: ↳ Song: "The Triumph Of Man (side 2)" by "Travelers Insura... Peter Thomas continues to live beyond our existence!! That guy was everywhere!!
	🎸 ♥ 8:11pm dale: black plague, diarrhea, bleeding from the eyes....yay!
	8:12pm Carmichael: I live near a park, and the friggin’ ice cream man drives by several times per day. Turkey In the Straw and The Entertainer …
	8:12pm Listener Robert: ↳ Listener Robert @8:11 Sorry, I meant 45 rpm. I was playing 78s for them otherwise, hence the confusion.
	🎸 ♥ 8:12pm Cp304: old school propaganda was much better than todays see thru ish.. to think, education for death was mid 40's
	🎸 ♥ 8:13pm dale: ↳ Carmichael @8:12 does the state of marvin hamlisch get royalties?
	🎸 ♥ 8:14pm Cp304: ↳ Cp304 @8:12 yet the same message.. "democracy" smh
	8:14pm Carmichael: Free ice cream for life.
	8:16pm Carmichael: Pat Boone and Eddie Albert …
	🎸 ♥ 8:16pm dale: i have 'eddie albert sings and narrates americana.' the narrating is okay...
	♥ 8:17pm TDK60: Oh the GE building. Wasn't there a stage with an Abraham Lincoln dummy talking?
	8:17pm Mr Fab: ↳ Don-O @8:10 1973? It’s gotta be older than that.
	🎸 ♥ 8:18pm dale: this is very bathtubs over broadway.
	8:19pm Carmichael: The Tiki Room was 1970 or so. Just sayin’ …
	♥ 8:20pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 Or, was that the Bell building?
	🎸 ♥ 8:20pm dale: margo albert - born María Marguerita Guadalupe Teresa Estela Bolado Castilla y O'Donnell
	8:21pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 The Lincoln show was at the Illinois theater.
	8:21pm Carmichael: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel had a great stage show exalting the wonders of waste management.
	8:27pm Mr Fab: ↳ TDK60 @8:17 Good thing it wasn't sponsored by Ford Motors. Cuz then it might have been called The Ford Theater...
	🎸 ♥ 8:27pm Cp304: watch out Mr Watson..
	🎸 ♥ 8:28pm dale: these voice actors sound super familiar.
	8:28pm Carmichael: Watson, could you text me?
	🎸 ♥ 8:29pm Cp304: "a people network".. someone play that for Seth..
	8:29pm Carmichael: Sounds a little like Gary Collins
	♥ 8:29pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Bell Systems" by "Ray Dashner" Thanks Don. Illinois. I just recalled: one of the Big Corp exhibits (maybe Bell) had a booth you could go in and when you talked it made your voice sound different with different tones. People outside the booth would laugh at you. I did it. So Futuristic. (Like some WFMU DJs do now! The promise of the future.)
	8:30pm Don-O: ↳ TDK60 @8:29 That might sounds like AT&T. They had something like that at Seattle.
	8:30pm Listener Robert: ↳ Song: "Bell Systems" by "Ray Dashner" Stuff like this makes me cry, because it's so uplifting. I've always received it in the same spirit it was conceived in,
	8:30pm Carmichael: Or maybe Efram Zimbalist Jr.
	🎸 ♥ 8:32pm dale: ↳ Carmichael @8:30 i only paid attention to stephanie zimbalist.
	8:32pm Don-O: ↳ Listener Robert @8:30 I can understand that. Stuff like this got to you before you grew up and ended up a cynical old fart.
