	♥ 9:00am common: hello trouble. people. time to chill.
	♥ 9:01am Strandlund: I'm here for Trouble...
	♥ 9:01am listener james from westwood: Oh hell yes to this version. Howdy, Trouble and all!
	♥ 9:01am Charles in Chicago: I like the artwork today. Like a map of an imagined city.
	♥ 9:01am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Trouble and troublemakers.
	♥ 9:02am Zip7: Good morning Troubled modernists!
	♥ 9:02am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): good morning! this is one of my fave songs everrrrrrrr
	9:03am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Hey, Trouble, troubled modernists.
	♥ 9:03am common: always loved the 10cc original, but it also scared me when the "big boys don't cry" came in. creepy
	9:04am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I thought this was The Blow for a minute.
	9:04am Philip: good troubled morning
	♥ 9:04am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @9:02 i was just reading about how the original was made, using tape-loops of individual voices ... it's pretty interesting - en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 9:04am Dances with Moomins: Hello Modern Worlders! Trouble's is an afternoon show in Finland but today I listen from Jersey City! Wonderful, exotic, exciting, though a bit grey this morn.
	♥ 9:05am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:04 The Gizmotron/Gizmorchestra was a great idea.
	♥ 9:06am Handy Haversack: Bright Thursday greetings, Trouble and all the Troubled.
	♥ 9:07am Sean Bikes: ↳ Song: "i'm not in love" by "kelsey lu" That was gorgeous
	♥ 9:08am Charles in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @9:05 I think the Gizomotron was sort an e-bow kind of thing that fit over the bridge of the guitar www.kevin-godley.com... - interesting but not what they used to make "I'm not in love" (I think)
	♥ 9:08am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning
	♥ 9:09am spodiodi: good morning, Trouble and all ☀️
	♥ 9:10am Trouble: good morning thursday people!
	♥ 9:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Trouble @9:10 Yesterday I was a Wednesday person, today I am a Thursday person. I wonder what I'll be tomorrow.
	9:13am Dan near StL: Good morning Trouble, Charles, all others. Hoping for verdict by the weekend.
	♥ 9:13am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 9:13am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:08 It's inception was THEN. It essentially bows the chosen guitar strings when you depress small ribbed rotating wheels onto them...from the bridge-mounted device they designed and built (and marketed actually). There was also much tape loopage and studio experimentation, now that they had Strawberry Studios. That era was their finest flower, when Kevin Godley and Lol Creme were still half the band. They wanted to make art, while Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman were more into making hit records out of bubblegum pop, of which they were some of its key inventors. I loved that band and still do. Can you tell?
	♥ 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Hurrah for Thursday!
	9:14am Dan near StL: Shocking to see a Robin with cicada in beak. Looks like a 27 lb. turkey.
	♥ 9:14am Trouble: welcome to NJ @ dances with moomins!
	♥ 9:15am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan near StL @9:13 Hi Dan. It will probably be 3 to 4 weeks according to legal experts www.lawfaremedia.org... SoP: I appreciate your enthusiasm and knowledge!
	♥ 9:16am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:15 SoP: Also, check out Paolo Angeli's heavily modified guitar, he has little motorized propellers that do sort of the same thing
	9:16am Dan near StL: Was 10cc a one or two hit wonder? Rubber Bullets perhaps before INIL.
	♥ 9:16am rebuketodali: Good morning all! Saw Kelsey Lu open for Kim Gordon and she was incredible
	♥ 9:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 "Twelve singles reached the UK Top 40" - I think they were less successful here
	9:18am Dan near StL: The Original Soundtrack, my must own 10cc
	♥ 9:18am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 I will! Thanks!
	♥ 9:19am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 You can't forget Jamaican Holiday!
	9:20am Dan near StL: Life Is A Minestrone, brilliant, like Savoy Truffle.
	9:21am Dan near StL: Wasn’t JH featured in The Social Network, with video of Niagara Falls?
	♥ 9:21am StringOFperils: ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 The Wall Street Shuffle was a hit too.... I think. I'm Mandy, Fly Me as well maybe....I might just be remembering the past glory of FM, where regular airplay wasn't necessarily a 'hit', industry-wise.
	9:23am Dan near StL: String of…yes! One Chicago early FM station, you could predict the next tune. A narrative thread of sorts.
	♥ 9:23am Hughie Considine: "I Pity Inanimate Objects" by Godley and Creme features some of the strangest aural effects ever captured. Still not entirely clear how they managed it.
	♥ 9:26am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Love this opening set, Trouble!
	9:27am Dan near StL: Too early for cocktail hour?
	♥ 9:28am melinda: hola friends
	9:28am Dan near StL: Love the glottal stops
	♥ 9:28am Sprattus Sprattus: Current listening experience; on my left side ear a concrete street construction sounds and on the right side sloshing of a waterfall sculpture, but in my headphones the only kinda trouble i really welcome. Lovely tunes so far
	9:29am Philip: wow that's some whistle!
	♥ 9:30am StringOFperils: Like a sunset ocean cruise on sedatives....off to the purple horizon.....yawn....must....lie....down.....zzzzzzzzzz
	♥ 9:35am Zip7: ↳ Song: "walk on the sand" by "ars nova" These folks had a big writeup/profile in "Life" magazine
	♥ 9:36am Trouble: early voting is open for the NJ primary. check here to see where early voting is in your community: nj.gov...
	♥ 9:36am TDK60: ↳ Song: "walk on the sand" by "ars nova" Ars Nova. I recall them, one of the first rock bands to add a bit of classical. On Elecktra.
	♥ 9:37am Handy Haversack: Glad you'll be with us on Thursdays through the summer, Trouble.
	♥ 9:39am Trouble: merci@ handy. happy to be here!
	♥ 9:43am Handy Haversack: Here for the professionalism. Let's all exchange business cards and chuckle at the antics of the underclass.
	♥ 9:44am StringOFperils: Zum Wohl! is a German way of toasting someone's health. Proposing a toast. Sort of like 'be well'!
	♥ 9:45am Zip7: I like your 'tude, Trouble. I always kinda perversely enjoy it when the wheels fall off and nobody gets hurt
	9:46am Ian: Here's a 1968 article on Ars Nova from Life Magazine! One of the bands my 14-year-old self had seen in record stores but never heard until 5 minutes age. https://books.google.ca/books?id=xlQEAAAAMBAJ&q=%22ars+nova%22+%22Wyatt+Day%22&pg=PA72&redir_esc=y#v=snippet&q=%22ars%20nova%22%20%22Wyatt%20Day%22&f=false
	9:46am wenzo: Vote uncommitted
	9:47am Juli P: About to get ready for work:
	♥ 9:51am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "the black and crazy blues" by "roland kirk" Just got out of a meeting early, hooray! Oh man, this whole album's so great. Morning, people!
	♥ 9:54am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "nature" by "people like us" I've been listening to people like us for quite some time now, and what I've heard so far from Copia sounds like next level stuff
	10:00am TVP: You’d have to mail the form changing your affiliation to the county clerk’s office after the primary.
	♥ 10:02am iiibeat: Restricting or prohibiting participation in an election isn't cool. It is a primary election. Not a general. Why can't I vote in any and all primary elections, again??
	♥ 10:03am Webhamster Henry: Hi Trouble! My party (Greens) aren't on the ballot anymore in NY State. My kids re-registered Democratic so they could work the primaries.
	♥ 10:05am iiibeat: What if I think it best for Republican candidate A. to take on Democratic candidate B? Nope. I MUST be loyal to one or the other even if I end up voting for the other party in the general election. LOL
	10:07am GiB: Please don't be a single issue voter, people. It's how we get fascism.
	10:08am wenzo: Wooot, I was one of them… do iiiiit NJ!
	♥ 10:08am Crownless Gander: ↳ GiB @10:07 That horse is already out of the barn, unfortunately.
	10:15am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	♥ 10:15am Zip7: One of the more surreal afternoons I’ve experienced was about eight years ago at my son-in law’s wake. Two of his uncles were long-time New Jersey Democratic apparatchiks, and they traded stories. “Paulie had a great system – he would take people in his ward a nice cheesecake, and they would hand him their absentee ballots.” “Well, every election, Sammy had an amazing ability to raise people from the dead! We were very impressed.” They talked about a Jewish guy running in a heavily Irish district who swore up and down that his mother was Irish. When pressed for her maiden name, he blurted out “Rabinowitz!”
	♥ 10:16am herb.nyc: aside - am not listening, sorry, at library. but tue MORRICONE ISLAND had great guests. and this docu was mentioned. so i post now - Butterfly in the Sky Documentary Screening Saturday, June 1 / 1 pm East Flatbush Library, Conference Room Butterfly in the Sky tells the story of the beloved PBS children’s series Reading Rainbow, its iconic host LeVar Burton, and the challenges its creators faced in cultivating a love of reading through television. Join us for this special, free movie screening for all ages!
	♥ 10:16am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Trouble! Long time no see.
	♥ 10:18am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i love this show
	♥ 10:19am Crownless Gander: The question is, "Who benefits?" Liberal bourgeois democracy is working just great for the ruling class, and they're not about to change the rules just because the working class doesn't like it and is complaining.
	♥ 10:20am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:19 Thank you for stating the obvious.
	♥ 10:20am Zip7: Then there was the story about a candidate who hired a helicopter and low-level buzzed his opponent's rally, blowing campaign literature all over the place and sending everyone running for cover
	♥ 10:21am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:20 Patience, Abuelo. Everyone's learning.
	♥ 10:22am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:19 "Follow the money"
	♥ 10:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @10:21 Who you calling grandpappy, you obsolete fossil?
	10:23am Toothgrinder Tom: The Centre Pompidou would completely change the game for Jersey City - can’t believe anybody would be against it.
	♥ 10:24am StringOFperils: LOL. One crank to another. Cheers, Buddy.
	♥ 10:24am tom tom the pipers son: scuse me, pardon me... hello trouble and listeners...
	♥ 10:25am chresti: Morning Trouble and troubled!
	♥ 10:25am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Jake! Keep on fighting!
	10:26am wenzo: Thanks Jake, Thanks Trouble… vote uncommitted NJ!!
	10:26am v-dawg: It is NJT's fault that NJT is in bad fiscal shape. NJT has wasteful capital projects. NJT is making an unnecessarily expensive headquarters move. The covid relief money was going to run out. They knew that a fiscal cliff was coming for years. Now NJT is imposing a 15% fare hike, 3% annual fare increase, elimination of FlexPass, making 30 day expiration of tickets.
	♥ 10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:23 wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:26am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	♥ 10:27am DjLorraine: I'm here for the good Trouble
	♥ 10:28am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "people make the world go round" by "milt jackson" Makes me want to hear "Swan Lake" by Blackalicious. :)
	♥ 10:29am Ike: ↳ GiB @10:07 As long as people in swing states do the right, strategic thing in November, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to send a message in the primary and try to move Biden on this issue.
	♥ 10:30am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @10:24 Anyway, I'm horrified by all this unchecked growth as much as any sensible person.... ... but this conversation brings to mind the Groucho Marx song - I'm Against It.
	♥ 10:30am Yes: <33
	♥ 10:31am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ike @10:29 I completely disagree, the larger the margin in the popular vote, the better.
	♥ 10:31am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Morning Handy! You saw the summer schedule?
	♥ 10:31am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:30 Hail, Freedonia! I'm so fed up with politics right now, but it's like one of those sci-fi stories where you die if you fall asleep.
	♥ 10:31am Trouble: here is a link to the right to counsel page if you want to be an advocate for renters in jersey city: www.righttocounseljc.org
	10:32am Philip: I love this Milt Jackson....it could flow into Neil Young...'be on my side...'
	♥ 10:34am newton: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:04 tape loops are a great compositional tool
	♥ 10:35am Charles in Chicago: ↳ newton @10:34 qq.v. Frippertronics, Mellotron
	♥ 10:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:31 I did! Glad to see Vocal Fry is coming back!
	♥ 10:37am DjLorraine: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:37 Woot! Vocal Fry!!
	♥ 10:37am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Well said! I have felt like a relic for so long I've come out on the other side. Sixty eight going on eighteen, I am.
	10:37am traven: ↳ StringOFperils @10:31 Freedonia - Land of the spree, and home of the knave!
	♥ 10:39am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:37 Yay! Same time?
	♥ 10:42am Clincher16": ↳ Ike @10:29 Biden is juggling a few things on this "single issue." Like the Saudi deal that would normalize relations with Israel in exchange for Arab establishment help in establishing Palestinian statehood in the absence of a civil infrastructure that this stupid war has already caused way before this current chapter -- and starting with the Hamas-Likud common interest in the failure of Oslo. And yes, the US needs to cut Israel off from military aid. Hopefully, EU voters will also reject fascism in their upcoming EC elections.
	♥ 10:42am Mick: Late to the game as usual, but have been listening - thanks Trouble for the discussion with Jake Ephros, and of course for the fab music
	♥ 10:42am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:39 Moved to Tuesdays, 8 PM, after Micah.
	♥ 10:43am Howard & the Cats: Where is the new summer schedule posted? I cannot find it, and the search function doesn't come up with it, either...
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Howard & the Cats @10:43 www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:43am Yes: ↳ Howard & the Cats @10:43 sad to see some of my faves taking a break
	♥ 10:44am Howard & the Cats: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Thank you, Handy!
	♥ 10:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yes @10:43 Hard to know exactly how to face a Bryce-less week! Although Jessica's Radio Row and recent freeform fill-in were both excellent.
	♥ 10:47am Mick: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 And no Stashu sends me reeling... hope she's on to a great project or the like!
	♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mick @10:47 She'd been on eleven years solid, I think!
	♥ 10:49am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Thanks Handy!
	10:50am jessicaiscool: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" epic trouble
	♥ 10:50am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" yow - thanks for azeta - i didn;t know i needed it
	10:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Looking forward to Jessica’s full-time debut but I am not crazy about a Bryce-less Friday either!
	♥ 10:51am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" nuff cowbell!
	♥ 10:51am captain beef fart: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:50 Same here. One more Friday to enjoy Bryce and I'll be road tripping back home so that's nice.
	♥ 10:52am Mick: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:48 Wow! Heck of a run.
	♥ 10:52am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Aha!
	♥ 10:53am ranjit: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" well THERE'S a familiar 3 seconds of keyboard
	10:53am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Stomped and Wasted" by "dizzy gillepsie" I can find nothing about this album. Is it real?
	♥ 10:53am PNX: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" I thought it was the marathon again for a sec!
	♥ 10:53am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Greetings, Trouble and all youse. Is that a whiff of the Modern World marathon bed music I just heard?
	♥ 10:53am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Having a KKDA Soul 73 flashback and crying.
	10:53am Andres: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Revelatory! And great!
	♥ 10:54am mndave: This feels overly simplistic to say but Trouble you are doing radio RIGHT today!
	10:56am rx "rexy" scabin: @Chris in Kensington Bklyn my thought as well.
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Gotta get into a meeting, but the Modern World will be on the headphones.
	♥ 11:04am Enflod: ↳ Song: "what did i hear you say" by "tracie" Great clip of the Style Council with Tracie on backing vox! www.youtube.com...
	♥ 11:07am oshiwoshi: umm, isn't most of the stuff in the british museum stolen?
	11:07am Fredericks: I have been convinced that cats are a liquid.
	♥ 11:07am Crownless Gander: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Yes, but not from the British Museum! :D
	♥ 11:07am StringOFperils: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Ha ha ha!!! Excellent point!
	♥ 11:07am Spankyflop: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Just going to say the same
	11:09am rx "rexy" scabin: I have to go. Thank you, Trouble and Everyone.
	♥ 11:16am herb.nyc: ↳ Fredericks @11:07 haha, similar remark was made on wnyc, coupla hours ago - when they talked of a dog that would catch rats. from a trash bag a swarm of rats came out, and man said "it looked like a river". ewww
	♥ 11:16am iiibeat: Isn't most of what is in the British Museum artifacts that have been stolen at one point or another? Like from . . Indigenous tribes.
	11:17am Azk: Thursdays are so sweet. Thanks Trouble
	11:19am Azk: Somewhere in btween sony cd1 and cd3?
	♥ 11:19am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ herb.nyc @11:16 🐀 www.frinkiac.com...
	♥ 11:20am Peter in SEA: Better late than never! Bonjour, Trouble and Thursday people!
	♥ 11:21am disco_nap_: ↳ Song: "only jah knows" by "the royals" Hi Troublemakers! Enjoying these immaculate vibes for this Thursday morning
	♥ 11:21am Trouble: bonjour @ peter!
	♥ 11:21am StringOFperils: All great museums are chock full of raided loot. Entire tomb complexes from ancient Egypt. Pieces of the city of Babylon. But the museums themselves will be buried in sand and forgotten sooner or later, so time is just, even if we aren't.
	♥ 11:22am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "the edge of a dream" by "minnie riperton" Been hearing a lot of Minnie lately, and I'm not complaining!
	♥ 11:23am iiibeat: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Right! They are the rightful plunderers of wealth and history!
	♥ 11:26am Noir Lover: Fantastic song!
	11:28am the serpent: Interesting cover of Milton! Thanks Trouble
	♥ 11:31am pot8o: morning, troublemakers! been at the garden all day, planting vegetables and roses right now I'm wedding the herb garden
	♥ 11:32am love2laf: ↳ pot8o @11:31 It's about thyme you tied the knot!
	♥ 11:33am StringOFperils: Off to ride my bike across town in search of some real bread. Gotta escape this pointless suburban hammering too; don't they know this is downtown? Thanks until next time, Trouble!
	11:34am ryansterlingvirtue: I have a scary confession to make. I am going to see Jessica Pratt live on Monday mostly because of this song lol
	♥ 11:34am pot8o: sgame to see bryce go, but zoe b and lariza's show sound very interesting! vocal fry's back too!
	♥ 11:34am pot8o: ↳ pot8o @11:34 *shame
	11:35am ryansterlingvirtue: I am hoping once I see her live it will exorcise this song from my head. So obsessed
	♥ 11:35am chresti: ↳ love2laf @11:32 Lol!
	♥ 11:35am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" Every time I hear Jessica Pratt I momentarily think it's a track I forgot about from Numero's "Wayfaring Strangers: Ladies from the Canyon" comp-- and I mean that as high praise :)
	♥ 11:36am pot8o: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" if she's trying to emulate the 60s psych pop sound she's nailed it, top notch
	♥ 11:36am common: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" very broadcast-y
	♥ 11:37am chresti: ↳ pot8o @11:34 no Bryce? :(

	♥ 11:43am newton: Must walk Frances now, and get my lazy butt back to work. Thanks Trouble and troubled people!
	♥ 11:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ gnarly_gnarwhal @11:43 www.wfmu.org...

	♥ 11:45am gnarly_gnarwhal: ↳ Trouble @11:44 thank you! Terrific show Trouble!
	♥ 11:46am Trouble: who is up for a Colm Toibin book club? saw him speak about his new book long island and I am thrilled to read it. It helps if you read 'Brooklyn' first, 'Long Island' is that story many years later.

	♥ 11:55am Ken From Hyde Park: Thanks for the calming influence today, Trouble. See you in June!
	♥ 11:56am Trouble: good to hear@ emily! well not the part where you are heartbroken. i have had it by my bed for a month. i keep putting it off since i know that when i am done, it's over...a long wait for the next book. have you read all of his fiction? it's all awesome

	11:57am John in New Paltz: Thanks, as always, for an expansive show, Trouble. Thursday's always your day.
	♥ 11:58am waters7: I have read a lot. I haven't read "The Master" or the one about Thomas Mann. I found "Nora Webster" on a book shelf. I'll read that next.

This Is The Modern World with Trouble: Playlist from May 30, 2024

View Trouble's profile

A viking ship appears on the horizon, a likeness of Alice Coltrane carved into its bow. Rare birds flock together to sing Francoise Hardy as soul hits. A sunset of blips and bleeps fills the air.

Listener comments!
	♥ 9:00am common: hello trouble. people. time to chill.
	♥ 9:01am Strandlund: I'm here for Trouble...
	♥ 9:01am listener james from westwood: Oh hell yes to this version. Howdy, Trouble and all!
	♥ 9:01am Charles in Chicago: I like the artwork today. Like a map of an imagined city.
	♥ 9:01am Peter from Saranac Lake NY: Good morning Trouble and troublemakers.
	♥ 9:02am Zip7: Good morning Troubled modernists!
	♥ 9:02am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): good morning! this is one of my fave songs everrrrrrrr
	9:03am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Hey, Trouble, troubled modernists.
	♥ 9:03am common: always loved the 10cc original, but it also scared me when the "big boys don't cry" came in. creepy
	9:04am Listener Bryan (the Professor): I thought this was The Blow for a minute.
	9:04am Philip: good troubled morning
	♥ 9:04am Charles in Chicago: ↳ bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢) @9:02 i was just reading about how the original was made, using tape-loops of individual voices ... it's pretty interesting - en.wikipedia.org...
	♥ 9:04am Dances with Moomins: Hello Modern Worlders! Trouble's is an afternoon show in Finland but today I listen from Jersey City! Wonderful, exotic, exciting, though a bit grey this morn.
	♥ 9:05am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:04 The Gizmotron/Gizmorchestra was a great idea.
	♥ 9:06am Handy Haversack: Bright Thursday greetings, Trouble and all the Troubled.
	♥ 9:07am Sean Bikes: ↳ Song: "i'm not in love" by "kelsey lu" That was gorgeous
	♥ 9:08am Charles in Chicago: ↳ StringOFperils @9:05 I think the Gizomotron was sort an e-bow kind of thing that fit over the bridge of the guitar www.kevin-godley.com... - interesting but not what they used to make "I'm not in love" (I think)
	♥ 9:08am Aaron Working In Newark: Good Morning
	♥ 9:09am spodiodi: good morning, Trouble and all ☀️
	♥ 9:10am Trouble: good morning thursday people!
	♥ 9:11am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Trouble @9:10 Yesterday I was a Wednesday person, today I am a Thursday person. I wonder what I'll be tomorrow.
	9:13am Dan near StL: Good morning Trouble, Charles, all others. Hoping for verdict by the weekend.
	♥ 9:13am TDK60: Good morning.
	♥ 9:13am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:08 It's inception was THEN. It essentially bows the chosen guitar strings when you depress small ribbed rotating wheels onto them...from the bridge-mounted device they designed and built (and marketed actually). There was also much tape loopage and studio experimentation, now that they had Strawberry Studios. That era was their finest flower, when Kevin Godley and Lol Creme were still half the band. They wanted to make art, while Eric Stewart and Graham Gouldman were more into making hit records out of bubblegum pop, of which they were some of its key inventors. I loved that band and still do. Can you tell?
	♥ 9:14am Ken From Hyde Park: Hurrah for Thursday!
	9:14am Dan near StL: Shocking to see a Robin with cicada in beak. Looks like a 27 lb. turkey.
	♥ 9:14am Trouble: welcome to NJ @ dances with moomins!
	♥ 9:15am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan near StL @9:13 Hi Dan. It will probably be 3 to 4 weeks according to legal experts www.lawfaremedia.org... SoP: I appreciate your enthusiasm and knowledge!
	♥ 9:16am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:15 SoP: Also, check out Paolo Angeli's heavily modified guitar, he has little motorized propellers that do sort of the same thing
	9:16am Dan near StL: Was 10cc a one or two hit wonder? Rubber Bullets perhaps before INIL.
	♥ 9:16am rebuketodali: Good morning all! Saw Kelsey Lu open for Kim Gordon and she was incredible
	♥ 9:18am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 "Twelve singles reached the UK Top 40" - I think they were less successful here
	9:18am Dan near StL: The Original Soundtrack, my must own 10cc
	♥ 9:18am StringOFperils: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:16 I will! Thanks!
	♥ 9:19am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 You can't forget Jamaican Holiday!
	9:20am Dan near StL: Life Is A Minestrone, brilliant, like Savoy Truffle.
	9:21am Dan near StL: Wasn’t JH featured in The Social Network, with video of Niagara Falls?
	♥ 9:21am StringOFperils: ↳ Dan near StL @9:16 The Wall Street Shuffle was a hit too.... I think. I'm Mandy, Fly Me as well maybe....I might just be remembering the past glory of FM, where regular airplay wasn't necessarily a 'hit', industry-wise.
	9:23am Dan near StL: String of…yes! One Chicago early FM station, you could predict the next tune. A narrative thread of sorts.
	♥ 9:23am Hughie Considine: "I Pity Inanimate Objects" by Godley and Creme features some of the strangest aural effects ever captured. Still not entirely clear how they managed it.
	♥ 9:26am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Love this opening set, Trouble!
	9:27am Dan near StL: Too early for cocktail hour?
	♥ 9:28am melinda: hola friends
	9:28am Dan near StL: Love the glottal stops
	♥ 9:28am Sprattus Sprattus: Current listening experience; on my left side ear a concrete street construction sounds and on the right side sloshing of a waterfall sculpture, but in my headphones the only kinda trouble i really welcome. Lovely tunes so far
	9:29am Philip: wow that's some whistle!
	♥ 9:30am StringOFperils: Like a sunset ocean cruise on sedatives....off to the purple horizon.....yawn....must....lie....down.....zzzzzzzzzz
	♥ 9:35am Zip7: ↳ Song: "walk on the sand" by "ars nova" These folks had a big writeup/profile in "Life" magazine
	♥ 9:36am Trouble: early voting is open for the NJ primary. check here to see where early voting is in your community: nj.gov...
	♥ 9:36am TDK60: ↳ Song: "walk on the sand" by "ars nova" Ars Nova. I recall them, one of the first rock bands to add a bit of classical. On Elecktra.
	♥ 9:37am Handy Haversack: Glad you'll be with us on Thursdays through the summer, Trouble.
	♥ 9:39am Trouble: merci@ handy. happy to be here!
	♥ 9:43am Handy Haversack: Here for the professionalism. Let's all exchange business cards and chuckle at the antics of the underclass.
	♥ 9:44am StringOFperils: Zum Wohl! is a German way of toasting someone's health. Proposing a toast. Sort of like 'be well'!
	♥ 9:45am Zip7: I like your 'tude, Trouble. I always kinda perversely enjoy it when the wheels fall off and nobody gets hurt
	9:46am Ian: Here's a 1968 article on Ars Nova from Life Magazine! One of the bands my 14-year-old self had seen in record stores but never heard until 5 minutes age. https://books.google.ca/books?id=xlQEAAAAMBAJ&q=%22ars+nova%22+%22Wyatt+Day%22&pg=PA72&redir_esc=y#v=snippet&q=%22ars%20nova%22%20%22Wyatt%20Day%22&f=false
	9:46am wenzo: Vote uncommitted
	9:47am Juli P: About to get ready for work:
	♥ 9:51am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "the black and crazy blues" by "roland kirk" Just got out of a meeting early, hooray! Oh man, this whole album's so great. Morning, people!
	♥ 9:54am unpopularfred: ↳ Song: "nature" by "people like us" I've been listening to people like us for quite some time now, and what I've heard so far from Copia sounds like next level stuff
	10:00am TVP: You’d have to mail the form changing your affiliation to the county clerk’s office after the primary.
	♥ 10:02am iiibeat: Restricting or prohibiting participation in an election isn't cool. It is a primary election. Not a general. Why can't I vote in any and all primary elections, again??
	♥ 10:03am Webhamster Henry: Hi Trouble! My party (Greens) aren't on the ballot anymore in NY State. My kids re-registered Democratic so they could work the primaries.
	♥ 10:05am iiibeat: What if I think it best for Republican candidate A. to take on Democratic candidate B? Nope. I MUST be loyal to one or the other even if I end up voting for the other party in the general election. LOL
	10:07am GiB: Please don't be a single issue voter, people. It's how we get fascism.
	10:08am wenzo: Wooot, I was one of them… do iiiiit NJ!
	♥ 10:08am Crownless Gander: ↳ GiB @10:07 That horse is already out of the barn, unfortunately.
	10:15am rx "rexy" scabin: Good morning, Trouble and Everyone.
	♥ 10:15am Zip7: One of the more surreal afternoons I’ve experienced was about eight years ago at my son-in law’s wake. Two of his uncles were long-time New Jersey Democratic apparatchiks, and they traded stories. “Paulie had a great system – he would take people in his ward a nice cheesecake, and they would hand him their absentee ballots.” “Well, every election, Sammy had an amazing ability to raise people from the dead! We were very impressed.” They talked about a Jewish guy running in a heavily Irish district who swore up and down that his mother was Irish. When pressed for her maiden name, he blurted out “Rabinowitz!”
	♥ 10:16am herb.nyc: aside - am not listening, sorry, at library. but tue MORRICONE ISLAND had great guests. and this docu was mentioned. so i post now - Butterfly in the Sky Documentary Screening Saturday, June 1 / 1 pm East Flatbush Library, Conference Room Butterfly in the Sky tells the story of the beloved PBS children’s series Reading Rainbow, its iconic host LeVar Burton, and the challenges its creators faced in cultivating a love of reading through television. Join us for this special, free movie screening for all ages!
	♥ 10:16am Greg from ZONE 5: Morning, Trouble! Long time no see.
	♥ 10:18am bixa (𝘣𝘦𝘦-𝘩𝘢): i love this show
	♥ 10:19am Crownless Gander: The question is, "Who benefits?" Liberal bourgeois democracy is working just great for the ruling class, and they're not about to change the rules just because the working class doesn't like it and is complaining.
	♥ 10:20am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:19 Thank you for stating the obvious.
	♥ 10:20am Zip7: Then there was the story about a candidate who hired a helicopter and low-level buzzed his opponent's rally, blowing campaign literature all over the place and sending everyone running for cover
	♥ 10:21am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:20 Patience, Abuelo. Everyone's learning.
	♥ 10:22am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Crownless Gander @10:19 "Follow the money"
	♥ 10:23am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @10:21 Who you calling grandpappy, you obsolete fossil?
	10:23am Toothgrinder Tom: The Centre Pompidou would completely change the game for Jersey City - can’t believe anybody would be against it.
	♥ 10:24am StringOFperils: LOL. One crank to another. Cheers, Buddy.
	♥ 10:24am tom tom the pipers son: scuse me, pardon me... hello trouble and listeners...
	♥ 10:25am chresti: Morning Trouble and troubled!
	♥ 10:25am Handy Haversack: Thanks, Jake! Keep on fighting!
	10:26am wenzo: Thanks Jake, Thanks Trouble… vote uncommitted NJ!!
	10:26am v-dawg: It is NJT's fault that NJT is in bad fiscal shape. NJT has wasteful capital projects. NJT is making an unnecessarily expensive headquarters move. The covid relief money was going to run out. They knew that a fiscal cliff was coming for years. Now NJT is imposing a 15% fare hike, 3% annual fare increase, elimination of FlexPass, making 30 day expiration of tickets.
	♥ 10:26am Handy Haversack: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:23 wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:26am Jason from Houston: Heyyyyyy there.
	♥ 10:27am DjLorraine: I'm here for the good Trouble
	♥ 10:28am Listener Bryan (the Professor): ↳ Song: "people make the world go round" by "milt jackson" Makes me want to hear "Swan Lake" by Blackalicious. :)
	♥ 10:29am Ike: ↳ GiB @10:07 As long as people in swing states do the right, strategic thing in November, I don’t think it’s a bad idea to send a message in the primary and try to move Biden on this issue.
	♥ 10:30am Franco Twinkie: ↳ StringOFperils @10:24 Anyway, I'm horrified by all this unchecked growth as much as any sensible person.... ... but this conversation brings to mind the Groucho Marx song - I'm Against It.
	♥ 10:30am Yes: <33
	♥ 10:31am Charles in Chicago: ↳ Ike @10:29 I completely disagree, the larger the margin in the popular vote, the better.
	♥ 10:31am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Morning Handy! You saw the summer schedule?
	♥ 10:31am StringOFperils: ↳ Franco Twinkie @10:30 Hail, Freedonia! I'm so fed up with politics right now, but it's like one of those sci-fi stories where you die if you fall asleep.
	♥ 10:31am Trouble: here is a link to the right to counsel page if you want to be an advocate for renters in jersey city: www.righttocounseljc.org
	10:32am Philip: I love this Milt Jackson....it could flow into Neil Young...'be on my side...'
	♥ 10:34am newton: ↳ Charles in Chicago @9:04 tape loops are a great compositional tool
	♥ 10:35am Charles in Chicago: ↳ newton @10:34 qq.v. Frippertronics, Mellotron
	♥ 10:37am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:31 I did! Glad to see Vocal Fry is coming back!
	♥ 10:37am DjLorraine: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:37 Woot! Vocal Fry!!
	♥ 10:37am Franco Twinkie: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:26 Well said! I have felt like a relic for so long I've come out on the other side. Sixty eight going on eighteen, I am.
	10:37am traven: ↳ StringOFperils @10:31 Freedonia - Land of the spree, and home of the knave!
	♥ 10:39am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:37 Yay! Same time?
	♥ 10:42am Clincher16": ↳ Ike @10:29 Biden is juggling a few things on this "single issue." Like the Saudi deal that would normalize relations with Israel in exchange for Arab establishment help in establishing Palestinian statehood in the absence of a civil infrastructure that this stupid war has already caused way before this current chapter -- and starting with the Hamas-Likud common interest in the failure of Oslo. And yes, the US needs to cut Israel off from military aid. Hopefully, EU voters will also reject fascism in their upcoming EC elections.
	♥ 10:42am Mick: Late to the game as usual, but have been listening - thanks Trouble for the discussion with Jake Ephros, and of course for the fab music
	♥ 10:42am Handy Haversack: ↳ chresti @10:39 Moved to Tuesdays, 8 PM, after Micah.
	♥ 10:43am Howard & the Cats: Where is the new summer schedule posted? I cannot find it, and the search function doesn't come up with it, either...
	♥ 10:43am Handy Haversack: ↳ Howard & the Cats @10:43 www.wfmu.org...
	♥ 10:43am Yes: ↳ Howard & the Cats @10:43 sad to see some of my faves taking a break
	♥ 10:44am Howard & the Cats: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Thank you, Handy!
	♥ 10:44am Handy Haversack: ↳ Yes @10:43 Hard to know exactly how to face a Bryce-less week! Although Jessica's Radio Row and recent freeform fill-in were both excellent.
	♥ 10:47am Mick: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:44 And no Stashu sends me reeling... hope she's on to a great project or the like!
	♥ 10:48am Handy Haversack: ↳ Mick @10:47 She'd been on eleven years solid, I think!
	♥ 10:49am chresti: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:43 Thanks Handy!
	10:50am jessicaiscool: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" epic trouble
	♥ 10:50am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" yow - thanks for azeta - i didn;t know i needed it
	10:50am Listener Bryan (the Professor): Looking forward to Jessica’s full-time debut but I am not crazy about a Bryce-less Friday either!
	♥ 10:51am oshiwoshi: ↳ Song: "azeta" by "lafayette afro-rock band" nuff cowbell!
	♥ 10:51am captain beef fart: ↳ Listener Bryan (the Professor) @10:50 Same here. One more Friday to enjoy Bryce and I'll be road tripping back home so that's nice.
	♥ 10:52am Mick: ↳ Handy Haversack @10:48 Wow! Heck of a run.
	♥ 10:52am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Aha!
	♥ 10:53am ranjit: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" well THERE'S a familiar 3 seconds of keyboard
	10:53am Fredericks: ↳ Song: "Stomped and Wasted" by "dizzy gillepsie" I can find nothing about this album. Is it real?
	♥ 10:53am PNX: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" I thought it was the marathon again for a sec!
	♥ 10:53am Chris in Kensington Bklyn: Greetings, Trouble and all youse. Is that a whiff of the Modern World marathon bed music I just heard?
	♥ 10:53am Jason from Houston: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Having a KKDA Soul 73 flashback and crying.
	10:53am Andres: ↳ Song: "Girls It Ain't Easy" by "honeycone" Revelatory! And great!
	♥ 10:54am mndave: This feels overly simplistic to say but Trouble you are doing radio RIGHT today!
	10:56am rx "rexy" scabin: @Chris in Kensington Bklyn my thought as well.
	♥ 11:00am Handy Haversack: Gotta get into a meeting, but the Modern World will be on the headphones.
	♥ 11:04am Enflod: ↳ Song: "what did i hear you say" by "tracie" Great clip of the Style Council with Tracie on backing vox! www.youtube.com...
	♥ 11:07am oshiwoshi: umm, isn't most of the stuff in the british museum stolen?
	11:07am Fredericks: I have been convinced that cats are a liquid.
	♥ 11:07am Crownless Gander: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Yes, but not from the British Museum! :D
	♥ 11:07am StringOFperils: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Ha ha ha!!! Excellent point!
	♥ 11:07am Spankyflop: ↳ oshiwoshi @11:07 Just going to say the same
	11:09am rx "rexy" scabin: I have to go. Thank you, Trouble and Everyone.
	♥ 11:16am herb.nyc: ↳ Fredericks @11:07 haha, similar remark was made on wnyc, coupla hours ago - when they talked of a dog that would catch rats. from a trash bag a swarm of rats came out, and man said "it looked like a river". ewww
	♥ 11:16am iiibeat: Isn't most of what is in the British Museum artifacts that have been stolen at one point or another? Like from . . Indigenous tribes.
	11:17am Azk: Thursdays are so sweet. Thanks Trouble
	11:19am Azk: Somewhere in btween sony cd1 and cd3?
	♥ 11:19am Ken From Hyde Park: ↳ herb.nyc @11:16 🐀 www.frinkiac.com...

	♥ 11:21am Trouble: bonjour @ peter!
	♥ 11:21am StringOFperils: All great museums are chock full of raided loot. Entire tomb complexes from ancient Egypt. Pieces of the city of Babylon. But the museums themselves will be buried in sand and forgotten sooner or later, so time is just, even if we aren't.
	♥ 11:22am Crownless Gander: ↳ Song: "the edge of a dream" by "minnie riperton" Been hearing a lot of Minnie lately, and I'm not complaining!

	♥ 11:33am StringOFperils: Off to ride my bike across town in search of some real bread. Gotta escape this pointless suburban hammering too; don't they know this is downtown? Thanks until next time, Trouble!
	11:34am ryansterlingvirtue: I have a scary confession to make. I am going to see Jessica Pratt live on Monday mostly because of this song lol
	♥ 11:34am pot8o: sgame to see bryce go, but zoe b and lariza's show sound very interesting! vocal fry's back too!
	♥ 11:34am pot8o: ↳ pot8o @11:34 *shame

	♥ 11:35am chresti: ↳ love2laf @11:32 Lol!
	♥ 11:35am The Oscar: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" Every time I hear Jessica Pratt I momentarily think it's a track I forgot about from Numero's "Wayfaring Strangers: Ladies from the Canyon" comp-- and I mean that as high praise :)
	♥ 11:36am pot8o: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" if she's trying to emulate the 60s psych pop sound she's nailed it, top notch
	♥ 11:36am common: ↳ Song: "life is" by "jessica pratt" very broadcast-y
	♥ 11:37am chresti: ↳ pot8o @11:34 no Bryce? :(
