	3:17pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Long Way Home" by "Ill Considered" "Mission: Impossible" Theme parallels? Has a similar bass and a lead that wouldn't be out of place.
	3:19pm Avrilinmay: thank you for the beautiful music. Much needed
	3:30pm Handy Haversack: ↳ Song: "Dallas" by "Ben Lumsdaine" Would have been a much better theme song for the TV show.

	3:49pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:48 springy matty!
	3:49pm UFOspecialist: glad I'm listening!
	3:49pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ zachary @3:46 Hiya zachary! Yes, wild and fun! I always like to give a 'brand' to listeners, for whichever show! :)

	3:50pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @3:49 NO SPRINGS! (Or, would that be spring industry spokesthing 'Coily'?) Hey NGH!
	3:56pm spodiodi: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" <3
	3:57pm Handy Haversack: If Eartha Kitt is evil, I don't want to be good! Going to head over to a colleague's going-away shindig. I DOUBT they'll let me put WFMU on ... but I'll keep hoping! Thanks, Jack! Stay Mello, all!
	3:57pm spodiodi: here's hoping, Handy! WFMU forever
	3:58pm zachary: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" Eartha is mean.
	3:58pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:57 Cheers, Handy! Cheating at jacks?! Changing seats to step on feet?!?! She's EVIL, I tells ya!!
	3:59pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:49 Hey! And you do a fine job, Matt. Do you have a spreadsheet somewhere so we can reference?
	4:00pm zachary: ↳ Handy Haversack @3:57 Tell them it's Jack Mello and his music is great. Say, "Hey. You have to check this out."
	4:00pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Ii think my first exposuree to EArtha Kitt was Batman back in the 60's-CATWOMAN . Meow!
	4:01pm zachary: Hot and humid here in Indiana. Had some rain earlier and now sunshine. I think it was at 96% humidity or so.
	4:02pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" Remember when there used to be big variety shows on the TV all the time? I totally saw this Eartha Kitt in my mind as if she were performing this song with a specially designed set and choreography and lighting!
	4:03pm coelacanth∅: hi Jack, Mellotrons
	4:03pm zachary: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" Fascinating. Eartha Kitt was targeted by the CIA for anti-war comments back in 1968: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:04pm Alice & Liam: Listening in Roccatederighi, Italy!
	4:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:50 frinkiac.com...
	4:05pm Woo: ↳ zachary @4:03 Got to see Eartha Kitt live around 25 years ago. A highlight was Come On-A My House sung in Japanese. She was amazing.
	4:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:04 HA! We oughta make that the mascot of our unincorporated Springfield here in VA!
	4:06pm spodiodi: ↳ Woo @4:05 i would have loved to heard that... love that song and Eartha Kitt
	4:06pm zachary: ↳ Woo @4:05 That's awesome. I'll have to see what live recordings I can find. Thank you for sharing, Woo.
	4:08pm Jack Mello: ↳ Alice & Liam @4:04 welcome Alice and Liam, luv out international listeners!
	4:08pm Jack Mello: and all other listeners, of course
	4:09pm Matt from Springfield: I never got rid of my CDs either - important backup medium, plus the original liner notes and material is a great tangible thing to have. But for the last two decades, I've just uploaded them into my computer and listen through there. For Ken's premium this year, I experimented with the new direct download option, as mash-ups are more of a digital native artform. Although I still like the cover designs for the other DJ premiums, and the prospect of backup media to keep them around.
	4:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Woo @4:05 Sounds great! I've always loved her "Mink, Schmink" song.
	4:24pm spodiodi: love the cough
	4:26pm zachary: ↳ Song: "Kiss" by "Budokan Boys" A sound for our times.
	4:27pm zachary: ↳ Jack Mello @4:08 We know your listener priorities. Ha!
	4:28pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:09 I still have all of my CDs, too. How did the digital download work out?
	4:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "R.A.F." by "Brian Eno and Snatch" WFMU Classic! Brian Eno's remix of a police message around the time of Baader-Meinhof/Red Army Faction kidnappings and terrorism. Is this available on any comp or box set?
	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ zachary @4:28 Still uploading (and evaluating) the CDs! But I should try the download soon, as the link might not last long. I'll let you know how the process goes! I presume a ZIP file with individual MP3s inside? That's usually how they are packaged.
	4:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "R.A.F." by "Brian Eno and Snatch" got this on a bootleg double lp in the 80s "music for palaces" ...i think most or all of the album was ultimately released officially. on the album, that cool r.a.f. ending goes directly into lion sleeps tonight (opening with Eno a capella)
	4:38pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 Nice! I haven't ripped CDs in a while and never really setup a new workflow on Linux. When I ran Windows, I used CDex and really liked it. The paranoia mode worked wonderfully to ensure the rip was clean. Yeah. I am not sure how WFMU handles it. If it is through KenzoDB or just a link somewhere on the web server.
	4:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:37 Hey coela! Thanks for the comp mention - and what a segue for an album! I'd like a copy of "R.A.F.", but that's another wondrous thing to search for!
	4:43pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:05 most def! /i'm about 5 miles from the springfield in VT that one tha contest that had their movie theater transformed into THE Springfield theater (azteca) for the realease of the Simpsons movie.
	4:44pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:43 I remember that promotion during the time of the movie!
	4:52pm Hubig Pie: I'll put 50 cents that Springfield OR is the Simpsons' Springfield, where the tire fire has been burning since 1983.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Hubig Pie @4:52 Hard to explain...not "the" Simpsons' Springfield, but it is the "original" reference. Near the hip college town of Eugene, OR is the "average shlubs" of Springfield, OR. Besides being an Everytown name (every state does have at least one), it's an in-joke as the Eugene people viewed them.
	4:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:09 i had to sell some of mine during the pandemic, but most still exist...(unlike my vinyl, but 30% of them still exist, and i'm trying to get them to a certain vt wfmu dj so they can be enjoyed by others).
	5:03pm northguineahills: jonah sharpe, aka spacetime continuum....
	5:04pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:58 Ah, to wendy? Good choice, she has Digital-to-Analog-to-Cheese conversion tools...
	5:06pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:04 i actually found usb turntable today at my friend's junk warehouse, still in the box....
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" I haven't heard this one, intrigued..
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:04 i just need to get a good price for wendy...
	5:08pm Jack Mello: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 "West Side Story", yo!
	5:08pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" getting out trance one, yazzzz!!!! /needed this!!!
	5:09pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @5:08 errr, getting our trance on....
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" Ah, an extended take on the West Side Story's "Somewhere" (A Place For Us)!!
	5:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Here's my flyer I hand out to random people who look like they would like it. Band tshirts, musician tshirts (Zildjian symbols), punks or punk or goth tatoos etc. WFMU.org freeform college radio Every type of music you can imagine Goth, punk, noise, metal, pop, old country, polka, speedmetal Melvins, Tom Jones, Chrome, Merl Haggard, Joy Division, New Order, King Crimson, Bruce Springsteen, 13th Floor Elevators, The Byrds, The Who, Voivod you name it, they got it. Go to WFMU.org and listen to one of two live streams or check out their archive. Also fun is put in a name of a band in the WMFU band browser and see the shows it appeared in. Why do I do this? Because WFMU is free and really truly amazing music available for free. On the app on your phone you can download 3 hour long shows if you want. All FREE FREEFORM radio. There is NOTHING ELSE like this out there, except for maybe some college radio stations. Shows (at least 40 or more) to check out:Garbage Time, Irwin, Dianes Kamikazee Fun Machine (metal), John Allen (kinda noisy) , Ken, Feelings with Michele with one L, etc etc etc. The archived shows go all the way back to 2000.
	5:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:12 said proper, werd!
	5:15pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:12 Excellent! Thanks for getting the word out! (Not "college radio" anymore, technically, but it is the best eclectic radio station out there, just like some college radio still has the reputation for.)
	5:17pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I'm thinking of copying a bunch of names from the band browser surrounding King Crimson alphabetically and having it as a decoration on the BACK. I print these at work and it would up my flyer game 100%. Hope Ken does not mind!
	5:17pm KramerOG: I love Propaganda!
	5:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:17 like how you think /wish i thought of that first!
	5:18pm Jack Mello: ↳ KramerOG @5:17 this is a remix mini-album
	5:19pm KramerOG: ↳ Jack Mello @5:18 That would explain why I recognize the music but don't know where the music is going to go

	4:00pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Ii think my first exposuree to EArtha Kitt was Batman back in the 60's-CATWOMAN . Meow!
	4:01pm zachary: Hot and humid here in Indiana. Had some rain earlier and now sunshine. I think it was at 96% humidity or so.
	4:02pm Jeff Moore: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" Remember when there used to be big variety shows on the TV all the time? I totally saw this Eartha Kitt in my mind as if she were performing this song with a specially designed set and choreography and lighting!
	4:03pm coelacanth∅: hi Jack, Mellotrons
	4:03pm zachary: ↳ Song: "I Want to Be Evil" by "Eartha Kitt" Fascinating. Eartha Kitt was targeted by the CIA for anti-war comments back in 1968: en.wikipedia.org...
	4:04pm Alice & Liam: Listening in Roccatederighi, Italy!
	4:04pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @3:50 frinkiac.com...
	4:05pm Woo: ↳ zachary @4:03 Got to see Eartha Kitt live around 25 years ago. A highlight was Come On-A My House sung in Japanese. She was amazing.
	4:05pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:04 HA! We oughta make that the mascot of our unincorporated Springfield here in VA!
	4:06pm spodiodi: ↳ Woo @4:05 i would have loved to heard that... love that song and Eartha Kitt
	4:06pm zachary: ↳ Woo @4:05 That's awesome. I'll have to see what live recordings I can find. Thank you for sharing, Woo.
	4:08pm Jack Mello: ↳ Alice & Liam @4:04 welcome Alice and Liam, luv out international listeners!
	4:08pm Jack Mello: and all other listeners, of course
	4:09pm Matt from Springfield: I never got rid of my CDs either - important backup medium, plus the original liner notes and material is a great tangible thing to have. But for the last two decades, I've just uploaded them into my computer and listen through there. For Ken's premium this year, I experimented with the new direct download option, as mash-ups are more of a digital native artform. Although I still like the cover designs for the other DJ premiums, and the prospect of backup media to keep them around.
	4:10pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Woo @4:05 Sounds great! I've always loved her "Mink, Schmink" song.
	4:24pm spodiodi: love the cough
	4:26pm zachary: ↳ Song: "Kiss" by "Budokan Boys" A sound for our times.
	4:27pm zachary: ↳ Jack Mello @4:08 We know your listener priorities. Ha!
	4:28pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:09 I still have all of my CDs, too. How did the digital download work out?
	4:33pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "R.A.F." by "Brian Eno and Snatch" WFMU Classic! Brian Eno's remix of a police message around the time of Baader-Meinhof/Red Army Faction kidnappings and terrorism. Is this available on any comp or box set?
	4:36pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ zachary @4:28 Still uploading (and evaluating) the CDs! But I should try the download soon, as the link might not last long. I'll let you know how the process goes! I presume a ZIP file with individual MP3s inside? That's usually how they are packaged.
	4:37pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Song: "R.A.F." by "Brian Eno and Snatch" got this on a bootleg double lp in the 80s "music for palaces" ...i think most or all of the album was ultimately released officially. on the album, that cool r.a.f. ending goes directly into lion sleeps tonight (opening with Eno a capella)
	4:38pm zachary: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:36 Nice! I haven't ripped CDs in a while and never really setup a new workflow on Linux. When I ran Windows, I used CDex and really liked it. The paranoia mode worked wonderfully to ensure the rip was clean. Yeah. I am not sure how WFMU handles it. If it is through KenzoDB or just a link somewhere on the web server.
	4:41pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:37 Hey coela! Thanks for the comp mention - and what a segue for an album! I'd like a copy of "R.A.F.", but that's another wondrous thing to search for!
	4:43pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:05 most def! /i'm about 5 miles from the springfield in VT that one tha contest that had their movie theater transformed into THE Springfield theater (azteca) for the realease of the Simpsons movie.
	4:44pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:43 I remember that promotion during the time of the movie!
	4:52pm Hubig Pie: I'll put 50 cents that Springfield OR is the Simpsons' Springfield, where the tire fire has been burning since 1983.
	4:57pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Hubig Pie @4:52 Hard to explain...not "the" Simpsons' Springfield, but it is the "original" reference. Near the hip college town of Eugene, OR is the "average shlubs" of Springfield, OR. Besides being an Everytown name (every state does have at least one), it's an in-joke as the Eugene people viewed them.
	4:58pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @4:09 i had to sell some of mine during the pandemic, but most still exist...(unlike my vinyl, but 30% of them still exist, and i'm trying to get them to a certain vt wfmu dj so they can be enjoyed by others).
	5:03pm northguineahills: jonah sharpe, aka spacetime continuum....
	5:04pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ northguineahills @4:58 Ah, to wendy? Good choice, she has Digital-to-Analog-to-Cheese conversion tools...
	5:06pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:04 i actually found usb turntable today at my friend's junk warehouse, still in the box....
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" I haven't heard this one, intrigued..
	5:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Matt from Springfield @5:04 i just need to get a good price for wendy...
	5:08pm Jack Mello: ↳ northguineahills @5:07 "West Side Story", yo!
	5:08pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" getting out trance one, yazzzz!!!! /needed this!!!
	5:09pm northguineahills: ↳ northguineahills @5:08 errr, getting our trance on....
	5:11pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Song: "Somewhere (Extended mix)" by "Pet Shop Boys" Ah, an extended take on the West Side Story's "Somewhere" (A Place For Us)!!
	5:12pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: Here's my flyer I hand out to random people who look like they would like it. Band tshirts, musician tshirts (Zildjian symbols), punks or punk or goth tatoos etc. WFMU.org freeform college radio Every type of music you can imagine Goth, punk, noise, metal, pop, old country, polka, speedmetal Melvins, Tom Jones, Chrome, Merl Haggard, Joy Division, New Order, King Crimson, Bruce Springsteen, 13th Floor Elevators, The Byrds, The Who, Voivod you name it, they got it. Go to WFMU.org and listen to one of two live streams or check out their archive. Also fun is put in a name of a band in the WMFU band browser and see the shows it appeared in. Why do I do this? Because WFMU is free and really truly amazing music available for free. On the app on your phone you can download 3 hour long shows if you want. All FREE FREEFORM radio. There is NOTHING ELSE like this out there, except for maybe some college radio stations. Shows (at least 40 or more) to check out:Garbage Time, Irwin, Dianes Kamikazee Fun Machine (metal), John Allen (kinda noisy) , Ken, Feelings with Michele with one L, etc etc etc. The archived shows go all the way back to 2000.
	5:12pm northguineahills: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:12 said proper, werd!
	5:15pm Matt from Springfield: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:12 Excellent! Thanks for getting the word out! (Not "college radio" anymore, technically, but it is the best eclectic radio station out there, just like some college radio still has the reputation for.)
	5:17pm Wild Neil\|\|Peace All: I'm thinking of copying a bunch of names from the band browser surrounding King Crimson alphabetically and having it as a decoration on the BACK. I print these at work and it would up my flyer game 100%. Hope Ken does not mind!
	5:17pm KramerOG: I love Propaganda!
	5:17pm northguineahills: ↳ Wild Neil\|\|Peace All @5:17 like how you think /wish i thought of that first!
