	3:04pm G: Is that a pic from today?
	3:04pm amEdeo: A metal flake once flew into my eye from a nunnery that I used to live down the street from. Keep them eyes safe from wind propelled objects!
	3:05pm Stanley The Meat Guy: Hello Hoosier! Pancakes! French toast!
	3:05pm Jay/ London: hi Scott greetings from London .. and we thought we had bad weather !!!!
	3:05pm It's official!: Probably know 91.1 is off the air.

	3:06pm Jay/ London: you still in the station amEdeo ?
	3:07pm G: Is Moog River wider than a mile? Or only during a storm surge?
	3:07pm pierre: Bonsoir Scott ! (can't listen to the show live, for i'm going to a gig) i wish all bon courage for Sandy.
	3:08pm Scott W: happy days y'all! hey, who's coming to illegally drive me home at 6pm?? Yeah G, that was taken at 10am today, 2 blocks away from FMU. and yeah, we know we're off air
	3:08pm bartleby: Scott, you know the broadcast signal just died a minute ago
	3:08pm Maestroso: Well, that explains why my cable feed switched to wrti.
	3:09pm Matt from Springfield: Moog River, nice! @Scott W: More like the Hudson Sea! I'd better check DC area webcams, see if flooding has started yet.
	3:10pm BSI: Scott, I figured you had a zip-line connection from home to FMU, for just such an emergency... Arrive magically like some demented superhero with a bag of records and a head fulla crazy...
	3:10pm G: Nice stormy vibe on this Stomu Y
	3:13pm Jonas: Kranky silly fun stuff
	3:14pm amEdeo: @Jay: Nah, I got a ride back into NY with Nachum after his show. So I did not have to live off of a single apple, some tea, and one bottle of beer after all.
	3:17pm pierre: as always, a fantastic selection of music.
	3:18pm Maestroso: I think 91.1 is back...
	3:18pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo that's good ,, now no getting on on your bike !!! :0
	3:18pm pierre: I can only pledge by the end of the week, but i'll make sure it goes to this show.
	3:19pm G: In lucky 7/8 time
	3:20pm G: Just like Peter G., the lead singer had trouble stretching to the high notes in that "Pontiac" line
	3:21pm G: he changed "not full of shit" to something radiofriendly :-)
	3:21pm amEdeo: @Jay: Yeah, I do not know what was going on with that person. But kudos to them for being so determined to conquer nature with their 10-speed.
	3:22pm Scott W: nah, we're still off-air at 91.1
	3:23pm northguineahills: Cool, haven't heard this Resevoir before!
	3:24pm C#: This cover of Back in NYC... ugh. His remapping of original rhythm makes me seasick. Play the original some time, pretty please.
	3:24pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo maybe they just went backwards all the way home at 50mph
	3:24pm maestroso: Yeah, just switched to the web stream.
	3:26pm maestroso: I appreciate any cover of Back in NYC. Played it in a Genesis cover band back in the day.
	3:27pm amEdeo: Watch out for The Duke of New York, Snake!
	3:28pm Jay/ London: roy orbison ... class
	3:28pm sugarwolf: still on at 90.1! and still with power to have the radio on...
	3:28pm G: Is this Orbison song about the Hawaiian part of west Texas?
	3:29pm Woo: Can we get the Donnie Iris Leah as well?
	3:30pm amEdeo: @Jay: Hahahaha. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened. Whatever happened, I hope they found what they were really looking for.
	3:30pm Matt from Springfield: LOVE Roy Orbison! BT played this cardboard postcard disc, I couldn't listen to the entire track myself because of skipping/rotation problems, but if you want to hear the whole uninterrupted track, check Brian Turner's archive.
	3:32pm amEdeo: Huzzah! The WFMU flexi-disc! The Katyn statue is a favorite meeting point.
	3:32pm sugarwolf: Matt, I had the same problems.
	3:33pm G: scratchidisc :-)
	3:35pm Faye: nothing could be more soothing in a time of crisis than hearing those opening bars of bed music implying that we will soon be in the presence of Scott Williams
	3:35pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo i could just see it when you talked about him on the show
	3:39pm Mother Nature: snaps her whip - bwahhh!
	3:40pm Sandy: fancy playing out later, about 9pm?
	3:40pm Mother Nature: bitches!!!
	3:41pm Soul Patch: Mr. Lonely, love your music choices. Playing anything from Flood?
	3:42pm Owen in Indiana: As a terrible weather nerd, I'm wondering what are these emergency broadcast system "permissions cards" you and Ken are talking about? Do they just say "I work on the radio, let me to my transmitter"?
	3:43pm amEdeo: YES. YES. I listened to this late last night, and really freaked myself out. Great song.
	3:43pm Soul Patch: Hey! Who's ear?
	3:44pm Steven: Clay?
	3:44pm Alice: Steven?
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Pidgeout freakout psychedelia! Twould make a good horror soundtrack song.
	3:45pm Soul Patch: WOW I LOVE THIS!!! Dirty Clown!
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Alice?
	3:46pm other david: Matt?!
	3:46pm Woman Machine: Sandy?
	3:46pm Chain of: Questions?! :)
	3:47pm Matt from Springfield: Howdy, OD! :) How's the weather on your side of the Hurricane?
	3:47pm sitting target: don't kill the messenger.
	3:47pm Caryn: Goof lord, Clay has created the perfect killer carnie/killer clown/scary living clown puppet horror movie soundtrack gem!
	3:47pm glenn: checking in
	3:47pm Caryn: Oy. "Good", not "goof".
	3:50pm other david: @Matt: The weather is positively peaceful compared to your impending storm of doom! Clear frosty nights, cold misty days. I love this time of year - but then, we don't get hurricanes :) That Clay track was great.
	3:50pm paul: YES
	3:50pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, GREAT backing track @ this speed!
	3:50pm G: i "blame" whoever asked for hall and oates early in ken's fill-in...
	3:51pm Dave E:: Hall & Oates never sounded better!
	3:52pm Carmichael: Hiya Scott. Hi 'Caners.
	3:52pm Caryn: This is clearly the speed at which H&O should be listened to always.
	3:52pm Dave E:: Although, 78 might be better as it would be over sooner!
	3:52pm Jay/ London: this song song is better at this speed .. maneater
	3:52pm Cecile: I like this at regular speed.
	3:52pm Matt from Springfield: Daryl Hall has a great, forceful soul voice. Normally when I play around with tracks using Audacity, I have sped up H&O tracks; even after a high pitch shift, Daryl's voice usually remains quite strong and intact.
	3:52pm Michael Slaboch: Sounds like Jon Glaser is singing in his Delocated voice modulator.
	3:53pm Sandy: Watch out boy, i chewin up your added fer shurr!!!!!
	3:53pm Cecile: Do you have your Starbuck loop floating around?
	3:53pm Matt from Springfield: Hey non-'caner Carm.
	3:53pm dave: re ClayPigeon http://www.vanitycaserecords.com/index.php?/catalogue/vc12---the-reality-tunnel-2---the-carnival-is-over/
	3:54pm Sandy: asses, even -- hey i'm a badass hurriacne, not a member of the fucking office typing pool, bitches.
	3:54pm StormTraktor: More Updates!
	3:54pm Dave E:: Can anyone explain why the speed of records is 16, 45, 33 and 78? Seems that they should be even sppeds like 20, 40, 60 etc.
	3:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Cecile: Everything is ultimately "ripped off" of something--with 80s soul you hear a lot of Motown lifts. "Maneater" borrowed from the Supremes "My World Is Empty Without You" intro rhythm. But at least they used that unique rhythm very well.
	3:55pm GrannyP: Kind of like the slow 'Maneater'.
	3:56pm Soul Patch: is this NKOTB?
	3:56pm Dominick: wowie
	3:57pm Cecile: H&O came by their love of soul honestly. They used to be studio musicians for Philadelphia International. I like them a lot. Some of their stuff is pretty facile and cold-blooded, but their good stuff is excellent pop.
	3:57pm Cecile: this is awesome. I love this.
	3:57pm Dave E:: Maneater like that guy in Florida. They should keep the hurricanes in Florida too.
	3:58pm G: There are very specific tech and business reasons (good or bad, your call) -- there's a ton of detail scattered throughout this article, especially in sections with the headings "Speed(s)" -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gramophone_record
	3:58pm Carmichael: I am not now, nor have I ever been, everything.
	3:59pm Parq: Hi Scott. Don't have any quips. Just want to say my hat's off to you for making it in to do this today. All the best.
	3:59pm Caryn: I like Hall's voice (and Oates' mustache, of course), but a lot of the songs are not my cup of tea. I think slowing "Maneater" up makes the backing track way better than normal. Of course, H&O just makes me think of the running "H&O work with inner city kids" sketches on "Big Train", so it's hard to take them seriously anymore.
	3:59pm Dave E:: TY G:!
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Dave E: In response to your question, here is the best explanation I've found. Took a moment to search old playlists to find the link for it again, but here it is: http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/228/why-are-record-speeds-33-45-and-78-rpm (Incidentally, thank you G, for providing that link in the first place!)
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: G: Master of Records he's pulling your speeds! :)
	4:04pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: allrighty then!
	4:06pm Marmalade Kitty: That picture of the Hudson (is it?), looks like the Mersey in Liverpool uk on any given day
	4:08pm G: @Matt: Yeah, I remembered that I knew about that other link you just now reposted, but was not recalling it off the top of my head at the moment Dave E posted. So as a fallback I knew the wiki article would be okay for getting to know something about it. Thanks for refinding that link, Matt :-) Now it's outside for me, for a bit, to check the Brooklyn weather. (I'm done with online paid work for the day, and the electricity hasn't died here yet :-) )
	4:09pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: I dont know crap but isnt the Hudson a total sty and all that is gonna be washing down your streets and it is total poison?
	4:09pm Jay/ London: Hi marmalade Kitty !
	4:09pm G: It just came across the wires that DC federal offices will also be closed Tuesday...
	4:09pm Carmichael: Hall and Oates were also on "Chariots of Eggs" and SCTV remake of Chariots of Fire.
	4:09pm ny zilla: Cuomo live press conference right now
	4:10pm G: The Hudson was scuzzier 40 years ago. The Clean Water Act was passed in the early 70s.
	4:10pm MP & The Holy Grail: @Sleestaxvalley: It's getting better!!
	4:12pm Chop Scott: Scott! Glad for your company, bunkered in here...
	4:12pm Caryn: H&O take over from The Sparks to try and fix the projects (with a little help from Eurythmics): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh5f-_I1df4
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: @G: Doubled bookmarked on my home computer now, just to be safe! :)
	4:12pm Marmalade Kitty: everyone will feel cheated if Sandy doesn't arrive
	4:13pm G: Sounds good. Someone asks in comments every few months :-)
	4:13pm Marmalade Kitty: Hi Jay!
	4:13pm Minnesota Jeff: Fantastic show today!
	4:13pm Sandy: Expect sand in your cracks, peons!
	4:14pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: awesome!
	4:15pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: @Minnnesota Jeff........what town?
	4:15pm Jack N. (axe in hand): Here's Stevie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:15pm Matt from Springfield: @MK: For me it's perfect right now--great, interesting, pouring rain to look at and listen to, but no floods or rough winds yet!
	4:19pm Minnesota Jeff: Sleestaxvalley - St. Paul (specifically Mendota Heights)
	4:21pm Jeff: This is spooky. I don't like it.
	4:22pm REM Gnat: 47%? Let's get Scott over 50%. He's here for us.
	4:23pm amEdeo: When is this performance from, Scott?
	4:23pm Rachael: Thank you for playing That Dirty Clown before, Scott! I've missed it! And hang in there! whoooooosh
	4:24pm tim from champaign: I'm actually getting into this story.
	4:25pm amEdeo: They're starting to close down NY bridges. Doesn't say which ones though... http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/10/28/nyregion/hurricane-sandy.html#sha=94213b24b
	4:26pm amEdeo: Ahah. Updated with the bridges and times.
	4:26pm Caryn: Mrs. Carmody is such a despicable loon that I tend to let out a sigh of relief whenever she's shot. Are you going to play this until the downer ending, Scott?
	4:26pm Ike: Power just went out here in Nwk for about 45 min. Was forced to listen to WNYC, WNYE, and WFUV on my Walkman! The horror!
	4:29pm Matt from Springfield: This Var. has done a great variety of records.
	4:29pm the glowing one: this is driving me crazy!
	4:29pm Cecile: please call stella...
	4:32pm the glowing one: how am I supposed to learn English when they're all babbling at the same time!
	4:32pm Elmer J. Fudd: My name is Elmer J. Fudd, Millionaire, I own a mansion and a yacht.
	4:34pm Jay/ London: is this a 7" seems to go on forever !!!
	4:35pm Ronald Reagan: I can tell you it only hurts for a minute and then you'll feel just great.
	4:36pm amEdeo: Oh no, their reality is seeping into the comments board... I... I think my brain is crying.
	4:38pm Marmalade Kitty: anagram of Hurricane sandy: Hardy Insurance..?
	4:39pm Sandy: Y'all better have that insurance handy already, suckas.
	4:43pm Tim G: Hello from at-the-moment-still-with-power Hoboken, Scott! You're doing yeoman's work!
	4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Brief outage for 5 mins here! Winds picking up, so now moving into uncharted territory here.
	4:44pm Insurance Saleds Tollfree #: I'm sorry. All our service agents are currently busy serving other customers. Please hold on and listen to dreadful low-fi muzak while we answer calls in the order in which they were received. Your estimated wait time: 57 hours and 9 minutes.
	4:46pm Tim G: This is the least catchy single I have ever heard.
	4:47pm Vocalist: Whaddya mean, Tim, it kinda caught in my throat.
	4:47pm cosmic matrix: why does this station always have to play music that's difficult for my cat

	4:50pm Caryn: @cosmic: it's all a plot by that damn "woof" dog!
	4:52pm Cecile: How about Rock Me Like A Hurricane?
	4:52pm Skirkie: Polaris dude.
	4:52pm cosmic matrix: my cat likes the bed music the best.... and she does like to sleep a lot
	4:53pm Caryn: I still say "Sandy" from the Grease soundtrack is on the nose.
	4:55pm Jay/ London: Another anagram of hurricane sandy is Anarchy Insured
	4:55pm cosmic matrix: sandy megamix!!
	4:57pm cosmic matrix: your beatmatching technique could use some work though
	4:57pm Soul Patch: SANDY MIX!
	4:58pm cosmic matrix: although to be fair I hear no needle-scratching
	4:58pm Cool Cat: Sandy Girl!
	4:59pm Maestroso: Welp. There goes the power.
	4:59pm Caryn: Then "Hey Sandy" by Polaris, and we're all done.
	5:00pm d: c'mon, i'm gonna lose power soon...
	5:00pm Matt from Springfield: Using Nat Roe's Supercut-O-Matic, I took a "Beach" playlist I made in iTunes and chopped up a 5 minute comp version. "Sandy" makes an appearance in that as well.
	5:00pm Doctor B.: How about "Sandy" by Ronnie & The Daytonas?
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: Singles Getting Soaked!
	5:03pm Matt from Springfield: Hurricane Duo 2: Therese In Distress!
	5:03pm Jay/ London: earth cam has a sandy feed give it a look http://aws1.earthcam.com/

	5:12pm Matt from Springfield: Dammit Clay, there are NO Shakey's on the East Coast! Why don't you open one, in fact? South Park picqued my curiosity on that chain.
	5:13pm Stanley The Meat Guy: There is a squirrel sitting outside of my window and it looks like he is pleading to come inside.
	5:13pm Cecile: no! they are real and awesome. They have a frosting X on them, and are filled with orange zest and currants.
	5:13pm Matt from Springfield: "Three Blind Mice" has 3 notes, I think "Hot Cross Buns" is similar, but only with 2 notes.
	5:14pm Cecile: Hot cross buns! Hot cross buns! 1 a penny, 2 a penny, hot cross buns! If you have no daughters, then give them to your sons. 1 a penny, 2 a penny, hot cross buns.
	5:14pm josh: Hot cross buns hot cross buns one a penny two a penny hot cross buns
	5:14pm Stanley The Meat Guy: "Dreambox" by The Frogs. Don't remember if that is radio friendly.
	5:14pm Phillip in San Antonio: I have a frosted mug from Shakey's Pizza.
	5:14pm Matt from Springfield: @Cecile: Traditionally an Easter sweet, those are good. Wow, Andy Ortmann of The Eternal Now?
	5:15pm Carmichael: I'm not here, dude, I'm at work. Dont narc me out!
	5:15pm Marmalade Kitty: hot crossed buns are usually eaten around easter time
	5:15pm cosmic matrix: i have a mini-korg... cars used to use of of dem
	5:16pm Caryn: Yeah, and in some traditions, you hide a small Christ or Madonna figure inside one, and whoever gets it, gets... something. I can't remember what an old lady told me about those. Just google it, people.
	5:16pm Matt from Springfield: @MK: Cool, you still have those regularly around Easter time over there?
	5:17pm Matt from Springfield: Frankensandy!!
	5:17pm Cecile: Yes, they are delicious. They make them around here at some of the Eastern European bakeries.
	5:17pm Jay/ London: @ Marmalade Kitty yes but they are on sale year round now and they are yummy :)
	5:17pm cosmic matrix: WOW that record has harmonics that i didn't know existed when played thru yer lil numba
	5:18pm Rawnald: Are the DJs playing music through telephone now?
	5:18pm Stanley The Meat Guy: "Hot Cross Buns" is a song that some people know on the recorder: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTMR4t9Yt4o
	5:18pm other david: Every time I hear this, I think of: http://evergreenterrace.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Strobe.gif
	5:18pm Carmichael: Greg Hawkes is the Cars keys player. He does have a mini-Korg, as well as other neat little gimicky things to get that swelly sound.
	5:19pm greenberg: Is that a 45 or an 8-track?
	5:20pm cosmic matrix: @carmichael -- mine actually belongs to ryan power... i fixed it a little bit and now i get to USE IT all the time -- check out RYAN POWER he's the best
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: @OD: Legendary Simpsons episode! Good twinkling finger animation in between strobes! :)
	5:21pm Matt from Springfield: Mr. Giant Last!
	5:21pm Cecile: Dan Hartman - Instant Replay and also I can dream about you.
	5:22pm slugluv1313: INSTANT REPLAY!!!
	5:22pm Cecile: He also sadly died from AIDS at way too young an age.
	5:22pm other david: @Matt: yep, it's a classic!
	5:22pm Andy Ortmann: @ Matt, yes.
	5:22pm Matt from Springfield: Trees swaying to this disco beat right now!
	5:23pm Matt from Springfield: @Andy: I need to check out your Archives sometime, you're a legend here!
	5:24pm Cecile: Weird Al did "Living with a Hernia"
	5:24pm Marmalade Kitty: yes matt, years ago they were only found in bakeries around easter time.. toasted with strawberry jam, Mmmmm!!!
	5:24pm Hollis (U.K): Great that you are all wiggy in all this.. viva la WFMU lOVE from Bristol U.K
	5:25pm Cecile: awesome
	5:25pm Matt from Springfield: "A Mighty Wind"!!! "A mighty wind is blowing / it's blowing you and me"!!
	5:25pm Skirkie: Yes.
	5:25pm greenberg: Great movie!
	5:26pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis, hey did you ever meet MYSTIC MERLIN? i met him in glastonbury in 1999... he said he lived in bristol!
	5:27pm conrad: Matt: Shakey's is crap, the McD's of pizza.
	5:27pm Matt from Springfield: The Seekers' "Come The Day" seems an obvious influence on A Mighty Wind songs. It's a good'un, such idealistic folk on the dreams of future peace and brotherhood.
	5:27pm Rawnald: DJ Battle time!!
	5:27pm Cecile: He made "for your consideration"
	5:28pm Cecile: my favorite one is Best in Show.
	5:28pm Matt from Springfield: I liked "For Your Consideration", though it's definitely not a classic like Guffman/Best In Show/Mighty Wind.
	5:28pm cosmic matrix: this song meant A LOT to me when i was a little kid--just somehow got me to the core
	5:29pm Hollis (U.K): @cosmic everyone is called "Merlin" In Glastonbury, it is that kinda twon .. hippy heaven
	5:29pm Matt from Springfield: @conrad: And CiCi's Pizza buffet, the wretched one they usually talk about on WFMU!
	5:29pm Jeff: Oh, my - y'know, the Guest crew couldn't have done such a devastatingly good job of satirizing the folk scene if they hadn't really known and loved it.
	5:29pm Caryn: Christopher Guest: makes great movies, writes great music, is a nobleman, and managed to snag Jamie Lee Curtis. Man has it all.
	5:29pm Jeff: Where's the Ian & Sylvia?
	5:30pm Phillip in San Antonio: No Cloudbusting by Kate Bush?
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: @Jeff: It helps that Guest & Co. are part of the really early Boomers, so they were old enough to experience the folk scene in the early 60s as it was happening.
	5:31pm Hollis (U.K): yeah cloudbusting would be perfect
	5:31pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis, OK, good point, but this guy dressed up as a wizard a lot and made a crop circle board game! he was also part of a stonehendge rock-moving project from wales or something
	5:32pm Andy Ortmann: Cloudbursting, SNAP
	5:32pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Lucky 7 Tavern is open. A friend of mine is there drinking right now.
	5:33pm Cecile: Pablo Cruise also had a song called a Place in the Sun.
	5:33pm Hollis (U.K): @cosmic AGAIN! seriously In Bristol/Glastonbury and where I live .. there are loads of people doing that kinda thing, kinda gets confusing.. yep.. hippy heaven here.. (tho I am a hard bastard :-)
	5:33pm Skirkie: There's a curfew in JC at 6pm
	5:33pm Ike: Ocean City, NJ, or Ocean City, MD?
	5:34pm cosmic matrix: i been to ocean city many years ago -- classic boardwalk -- that when i played w/ my first TRS-80 color computer... not on the boardwalk duh
	5:34pm gil: Can someone record the static where WFMU isn't, on the dial?
	5:35pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis - i knew you were gonna say that. ah well. i swear he's the most famous. whatchagonnado.
	5:35pm Cecile: with an oatmeal box and some black paint?
	5:36pm Ike: @gil, it's not very interesting static. I've heard some good static over the years, but I don't like this static.
	5:36pm Cecile: cosmic, the TRASH-80! lol
	5:36pm cosmic matrix: nice echo -- now i'm high like the tide baby!
	5:37pm Minnesota Jeff: Amazing.
	5:37pm Skirkie: Imma watch the Christie press conference. Let ya know if anything interesting happens.
	5:37pm mto: LFC! LFC! LFC!
	5:37pm Cecile: this is the best Clay duet since Billy Jam.

	5:37pm Phillip in San Antonio: And the home of the brave!
	5:38pm Cecile: hey, Clay, the Pearson's nut goodie bar now comes in salted caramel...
	5:38pm Cecile: Killebrew's!
	5:38pm Matt from Springfield: @amEdeo: Incidentally I was listening to your Terror-oake with Ophelia last night! Great job, possibly better than "Kenny G Sings The Classics"! :)
	5:39pm Phillip in San Antonio: XXX Root Beer,Barq's
	5:39pm Cecile: And Sprecher's
	5:40pm Cecile: Or from the Simpson's: "We have soy milk, Clamato and Mr. Pibb!"
	5:40pm cosmic matrix: safety dance blew my mind through my sony walkman... also the thriller album.... made me a future sound engineer!!
	5:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: The zebra mussels also strain out a lot of material from the Hudson River.
	5:40pm Phillip in San Antonio: Sprecher's has great labels.
	5:41pm Carmichael: Shakeys was founded in Sacramento, along with Round Table and one other. Hmmm ... Straw Hat, maybe?
	5:41pm cosmic matrix: zebra mussel soda was the first 45 i ever bought
	5:41pm Caryn: I suspect the message of The Walker Brothers' "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" might seem too bleak now. But it would still be a good track to play.
	5:41pm amEdeo: @Matt from Springfield: Wow, thanks! That's a super compliment.
	5:41pm Matt from Springfield: Kebekelektrik's "Bolero"! That's their song! ;)
	5:42pm cosmic matrix: cut my foot on a zebra mussel here on lake champlain and my foot itched, like, forever
	5:43pm Cecile: YES. No, he's still alive
	5:43pm Cecile: Play Start of the Story. I love this damn song.
	5:43pm Fred: Clay's wife is a poet and he dont know what he met her phor!
	5:43pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Zebra mussels are an issue at many lakes down here.
	5:43pm octy: New Colony Six.
	5:43pm Cecile: whoooo, goosebumps
	5:44pm Matt from Springfield: WFMU - Always, and Forever!
	5:45pm SteveL: Safety Dance was 'our' song, albeit, somewhat tongue in cheek. Our favorite grocery store used to play it on the cash registers (boop boop, beep beep, boop boop boop, beep beep!)
	5:45pm Caryn: After they're done with hurricane-appropriate songs, they'll move on to hurricane-appropriate bands, like Flood or The Hurriganes.
	5:45pm Matt from Springfield: Reverb-oake!
	5:45pm Cecile: Matt, that should be a t-shirt. Sang it, Scott.
	5:46pm G: FWIW, Christie givin props to the Prez, and slammin the non-evacuees (including some local mayors, e.g. Atlantic City).
	5:46pm Tim G: That was beautiful. I am sending over a case of TEEM to the studio
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: "How much do you weigh, caller? How many stone?"
	5:46pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): The "Safety Dance" video has always creeped me out a little bit.
	5:47pm Cecile: ACE!
	5:47pm Skirkie: Long story short on Christie's remarks: Had a good conversation with the president today. They're BFF now.
	5:47pm Robb: CLAY! YES!
	5:48pm Caryn: @BGZ: well yeah, because, like a lot of 80s' music videos, it makes no sense whatsoever. Just a hodge-podge of "let's put those guys in weird costumes dancing bizarrely in there too".
	5:49pm Cecile: tim g....teem!
	5:49pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): "New York Groove" was LCD Soundsystem's intro music at the Terminal 5 show I attended. That was a hell of a show.
	5:50pm Hollis (U.K): can we have more music please?
	5:50pm Robb: Dusty + Sandy = SMOOTH
	5:50pm Robb: Dusty + Sandy = SMOOTH
	5:50pm Matt from Springfield: Woohoo!! Yes they're BACK in...Hackensack!!!
	5:50pm Ike: Power is wobbling here again, lights are dimming, so I'm really glad you're back on the air at 91.1!
	5:51pm Matt from Springfield: THAT'S why the Pidge is so good for Hurricane Parties!
	5:51pm Skirkie: 91,1 is back. Mind the curses.
	5:52pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): "Pop Goes The World"
	5:52pm Cecile: they play Pop Goes the World on a commercial here.
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: Brief 5 minute outage earlier, so far so good in Springfield VA but winds are a bit stronger. YES! "Never My Love"!
	5:53pm Max: I love you guys, but I think you should PLAY more 7" and TALK less about them! :D
	5:53pm Max: I love you guys, but I think you should PLAY more 7" and TALK less about them! :D
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: Sing it, Clay!
	5:54pm Hollis (U.K): i am sure .. Hurricane music would be Throbbing Gristle. any track
	5:54pm Cecile: the association is always the right answer
	5:54pm Carmichael: So what's the local weather like as of now? They said "early Monday evening".
	5:55pm Jaybee in Bmore: I second Hollis
	5:55pm Yvonne: Oh it sounds so pretty. Like an wind-up radio when you're camping in the woods.
	5:56pm Phillip in San Antonio: Throbbing Gristle also makes great Halloween music, Hallocane!
	5:56pm Jaybee in Bmore: @Hollis I agree!
	5:57pm Caryn: Maybe it IS a wind-up radio. Earlier, the turntables were losing power, so we may be stuck with music that can be played via battery power or hand-crank.
	5:58pm diego: thanks
	5:58pm Cecile: Flash went down for a sec, I was afraid for you guys. Felt like a horror movie
	5:58pm Hollis (U.K): Discipline very scary "TG"
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Great finale! Have to look up more Aran Ruth. Stay safe and dry everyone!
	6:01pm Hollis (U.K): i feel the force!! had to put on a sweater, here in the U.K hope every is ok In the alter states. keep safe people.
	6:02pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Thanks Scott, Therese and Clay for being troopers. Stay safe!
	6:02pm Caryn: Oh Carrie! Not so much a hurricane, as a rain of blood is about to descend...
	6:05pm Cecile: be well, everyone.
	10:42am raga: the beat to that Mueran Humanos track sounds so much like Big Black's "Dead Billy".
	9:23pm pajeros: chupen la pija pajeros de mierda

	3:04pm G: Is that a pic from today?
	3:04pm amEdeo: A metal flake once flew into my eye from a nunnery that I used to live down the street from. Keep them eyes safe from wind propelled objects!

	3:05pm Jay/ London: hi Scott greetings from London .. and we thought we had bad weather !!!!

	3:06pm Jay/ London: you still in the station amEdeo ?
	3:07pm G: Is Moog River wider than a mile? Or only during a storm surge?
	3:07pm pierre: Bonsoir Scott ! (can't listen to the show live, for i'm going to a gig) i wish all bon courage for Sandy.
	3:08pm Scott W: happy days y'all! hey, who's coming to illegally drive me home at 6pm?? Yeah G, that was taken at 10am today, 2 blocks away from FMU. and yeah, we know we're off air
	3:08pm bartleby: Scott, you know the broadcast signal just died a minute ago
	3:08pm Maestroso: Well, that explains why my cable feed switched to wrti.
	3:09pm Matt from Springfield: Moog River, nice! @Scott W: More like the Hudson Sea! I'd better check DC area webcams, see if flooding has started yet.
	3:10pm BSI: Scott, I figured you had a zip-line connection from home to FMU, for just such an emergency... Arrive magically like some demented superhero with a bag of records and a head fulla crazy...
	3:10pm G: Nice stormy vibe on this Stomu Y
	3:13pm Jonas: Kranky silly fun stuff
	3:14pm amEdeo: @Jay: Nah, I got a ride back into NY with Nachum after his show. So I did not have to live off of a single apple, some tea, and one bottle of beer after all.
	3:17pm pierre: as always, a fantastic selection of music.
	3:18pm Maestroso: I think 91.1 is back...
	3:18pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo that's good ,, now no getting on on your bike !!! :0
	3:18pm pierre: I can only pledge by the end of the week, but i'll make sure it goes to this show.
	3:19pm G: In lucky 7/8 time
	3:20pm G: Just like Peter G., the lead singer had trouble stretching to the high notes in that "Pontiac" line
	3:21pm G: he changed "not full of shit" to something radiofriendly :-)
	3:21pm amEdeo: @Jay: Yeah, I do not know what was going on with that person. But kudos to them for being so determined to conquer nature with their 10-speed.
	3:22pm Scott W: nah, we're still off-air at 91.1
	3:23pm northguineahills: Cool, haven't heard this Resevoir before!
	3:24pm C#: This cover of Back in NYC... ugh. His remapping of original rhythm makes me seasick. Play the original some time, pretty please.
	3:24pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo maybe they just went backwards all the way home at 50mph
	3:24pm maestroso: Yeah, just switched to the web stream.
	3:26pm maestroso: I appreciate any cover of Back in NYC. Played it in a Genesis cover band back in the day.
	3:27pm amEdeo: Watch out for The Duke of New York, Snake!
	3:28pm Jay/ London: roy orbison ... class
	3:28pm sugarwolf: still on at 90.1! and still with power to have the radio on...
	3:28pm G: Is this Orbison song about the Hawaiian part of west Texas?
	3:29pm Woo: Can we get the Donnie Iris Leah as well?
	3:30pm amEdeo: @Jay: Hahahaha. I wouldn't be surprised if that happened. Whatever happened, I hope they found what they were really looking for.
	3:30pm Matt from Springfield: LOVE Roy Orbison! BT played this cardboard postcard disc, I couldn't listen to the entire track myself because of skipping/rotation problems, but if you want to hear the whole uninterrupted track, check Brian Turner's archive.
	3:32pm amEdeo: Huzzah! The WFMU flexi-disc! The Katyn statue is a favorite meeting point.
	3:32pm sugarwolf: Matt, I had the same problems.
	3:33pm G: scratchidisc :-)
	3:35pm Faye: nothing could be more soothing in a time of crisis than hearing those opening bars of bed music implying that we will soon be in the presence of Scott Williams
	3:35pm Jay/ London: @ amEdeo i could just see it when you talked about him on the show
	3:39pm Mother Nature: snaps her whip - bwahhh!
	3:40pm Sandy: fancy playing out later, about 9pm?
	3:40pm Mother Nature: bitches!!!
	3:41pm Soul Patch: Mr. Lonely, love your music choices. Playing anything from Flood?
	3:42pm Owen in Indiana: As a terrible weather nerd, I'm wondering what are these emergency broadcast system "permissions cards" you and Ken are talking about? Do they just say "I work on the radio, let me to my transmitter"?
	3:43pm amEdeo: YES. YES. I listened to this late last night, and really freaked myself out. Great song.
	3:43pm Soul Patch: Hey! Who's ear?
	3:44pm Steven: Clay?
	3:44pm Alice: Steven?
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Pidgeout freakout psychedelia! Twould make a good horror soundtrack song.
	3:45pm Soul Patch: WOW I LOVE THIS!!! Dirty Clown!
	3:45pm Matt from Springfield: Alice?
	3:46pm other david: Matt?!
	3:46pm Woman Machine: Sandy?
	3:46pm Chain of: Questions?! :)
	3:47pm Matt from Springfield: Howdy, OD! :) How's the weather on your side of the Hurricane?
	3:47pm sitting target: don't kill the messenger.
	3:47pm Caryn: Goof lord, Clay has created the perfect killer carnie/killer clown/scary living clown puppet horror movie soundtrack gem!
	3:47pm glenn: checking in
	3:47pm Caryn: Oy. "Good", not "goof".
	3:50pm other david: @Matt: The weather is positively peaceful compared to your impending storm of doom! Clear frosty nights, cold misty days. I love this time of year - but then, we don't get hurricanes :) That Clay track was great.
	3:50pm paul: YES
	3:50pm Matt from Springfield: Wow, GREAT backing track @ this speed!
	3:50pm G: i "blame" whoever asked for hall and oates early in ken's fill-in...
	3:51pm Dave E:: Hall & Oates never sounded better!
	3:52pm Carmichael: Hiya Scott. Hi 'Caners.
	3:52pm Caryn: This is clearly the speed at which H&O should be listened to always.
	3:52pm Dave E:: Although, 78 might be better as it would be over sooner!
	3:52pm Jay/ London: this song song is better at this speed .. maneater
	3:52pm Cecile: I like this at regular speed.
	3:52pm Matt from Springfield: Daryl Hall has a great, forceful soul voice. Normally when I play around with tracks using Audacity, I have sped up H&O tracks; even after a high pitch shift, Daryl's voice usually remains quite strong and intact.
	3:52pm Michael Slaboch: Sounds like Jon Glaser is singing in his Delocated voice modulator.
	3:53pm Sandy: Watch out boy, i chewin up your added fer shurr!!!!!
	3:53pm Cecile: Do you have your Starbuck loop floating around?
	3:53pm Matt from Springfield: Hey non-'caner Carm.
	3:53pm dave: re ClayPigeon http://www.vanitycaserecords.com/index.php?/catalogue/vc12---the-reality-tunnel-2---the-carnival-is-over/
	3:54pm Sandy: asses, even -- hey i'm a badass hurriacne, not a member of the fucking office typing pool, bitches.
	3:54pm StormTraktor: More Updates!
	3:54pm Dave E:: Can anyone explain why the speed of records is 16, 45, 33 and 78? Seems that they should be even sppeds like 20, 40, 60 etc.
	3:54pm Matt from Springfield: @Cecile: Everything is ultimately "ripped off" of something--with 80s soul you hear a lot of Motown lifts. "Maneater" borrowed from the Supremes "My World Is Empty Without You" intro rhythm. But at least they used that unique rhythm very well.
	3:55pm GrannyP: Kind of like the slow 'Maneater'.
	3:56pm Soul Patch: is this NKOTB?
	3:56pm Dominick: wowie
	3:57pm Cecile: H&O came by their love of soul honestly. They used to be studio musicians for Philadelphia International. I like them a lot. Some of their stuff is pretty facile and cold-blooded, but their good stuff is excellent pop.
	3:57pm Cecile: this is awesome. I love this.
	3:57pm Dave E:: Maneater like that guy in Florida. They should keep the hurricanes in Florida too.
	3:58pm G: There are very specific tech and business reasons (good or bad, your call) -- there's a ton of detail scattered throughout this article, especially in sections with the headings "Speed(s)" -- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gramophone_record
	3:58pm Carmichael: I am not now, nor have I ever been, everything.
	3:59pm Parq: Hi Scott. Don't have any quips. Just want to say my hat's off to you for making it in to do this today. All the best.
	3:59pm Caryn: I like Hall's voice (and Oates' mustache, of course), but a lot of the songs are not my cup of tea. I think slowing "Maneater" up makes the backing track way better than normal. Of course, H&O just makes me think of the running "H&O work with inner city kids" sketches on "Big Train", so it's hard to take them seriously anymore.
	3:59pm Dave E:: TY G:!
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: @Dave E: In response to your question, here is the best explanation I've found. Took a moment to search old playlists to find the link for it again, but here it is: http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/228/why-are-record-speeds-33-45-and-78-rpm (Incidentally, thank you G, for providing that link in the first place!)
	4:00pm Matt from Springfield: G: Master of Records he's pulling your speeds! :)
	4:04pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: allrighty then!
	4:06pm Marmalade Kitty: That picture of the Hudson (is it?), looks like the Mersey in Liverpool uk on any given day
	4:08pm G: @Matt: Yeah, I remembered that I knew about that other link you just now reposted, but was not recalling it off the top of my head at the moment Dave E posted. So as a fallback I knew the wiki article would be okay for getting to know something about it. Thanks for refinding that link, Matt :-) Now it's outside for me, for a bit, to check the Brooklyn weather. (I'm done with online paid work for the day, and the electricity hasn't died here yet :-) )
	4:09pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: I dont know crap but isnt the Hudson a total sty and all that is gonna be washing down your streets and it is total poison?
	4:09pm Jay/ London: Hi marmalade Kitty !
	4:09pm G: It just came across the wires that DC federal offices will also be closed Tuesday...
	4:09pm Carmichael: Hall and Oates were also on "Chariots of Eggs" and SCTV remake of Chariots of Fire.
	4:09pm ny zilla: Cuomo live press conference right now
	4:10pm G: The Hudson was scuzzier 40 years ago. The Clean Water Act was passed in the early 70s.
	4:10pm MP & The Holy Grail: @Sleestaxvalley: It's getting better!!
	4:12pm Chop Scott: Scott! Glad for your company, bunkered in here...
	4:12pm Caryn: H&O take over from The Sparks to try and fix the projects (with a little help from Eurythmics): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh5f-_I1df4
	4:12pm Matt from Springfield: @G: Doubled bookmarked on my home computer now, just to be safe! :)
	4:12pm Marmalade Kitty: everyone will feel cheated if Sandy doesn't arrive
	4:13pm G: Sounds good. Someone asks in comments every few months :-)
	4:13pm Marmalade Kitty: Hi Jay!
	4:13pm Minnesota Jeff: Fantastic show today!
	4:13pm Sandy: Expect sand in your cracks, peons!
	4:14pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: awesome!
	4:15pm Sleestaxvalley from Mankato: @Minnnesota Jeff........what town?
	4:15pm Jack N. (axe in hand): Here's Stevie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	4:15pm Matt from Springfield: @MK: For me it's perfect right now--great, interesting, pouring rain to look at and listen to, but no floods or rough winds yet!
	4:19pm Minnesota Jeff: Sleestaxvalley - St. Paul (specifically Mendota Heights)
	4:21pm Jeff: This is spooky. I don't like it.
	4:22pm REM Gnat: 47%? Let's get Scott over 50%. He's here for us.
	4:23pm amEdeo: When is this performance from, Scott?
	4:23pm Rachael: Thank you for playing That Dirty Clown before, Scott! I've missed it! And hang in there! whoooooosh
	4:24pm tim from champaign: I'm actually getting into this story.
	4:25pm amEdeo: They're starting to close down NY bridges. Doesn't say which ones though... http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2012/10/28/nyregion/hurricane-sandy.html#sha=94213b24b
	4:26pm amEdeo: Ahah. Updated with the bridges and times.
	4:26pm Caryn: Mrs. Carmody is such a despicable loon that I tend to let out a sigh of relief whenever she's shot. Are you going to play this until the downer ending, Scott?
	4:26pm Ike: Power just went out here in Nwk for about 45 min. Was forced to listen to WNYC, WNYE, and WFUV on my Walkman! The horror!
	4:29pm Matt from Springfield: This Var. has done a great variety of records.
	4:29pm the glowing one: this is driving me crazy!
	4:29pm Cecile: please call stella...
	4:32pm the glowing one: how am I supposed to learn English when they're all babbling at the same time!
	4:32pm Elmer J. Fudd: My name is Elmer J. Fudd, Millionaire, I own a mansion and a yacht.
	4:34pm Jay/ London: is this a 7" seems to go on forever !!!
	4:35pm Ronald Reagan: I can tell you it only hurts for a minute and then you'll feel just great.
	4:36pm amEdeo: Oh no, their reality is seeping into the comments board... I... I think my brain is crying.
	4:38pm Marmalade Kitty: anagram of Hurricane sandy: Hardy Insurance..?
	4:39pm Sandy: Y'all better have that insurance handy already, suckas.
	4:43pm Tim G: Hello from at-the-moment-still-with-power Hoboken, Scott! You're doing yeoman's work!
	4:44pm Matt from Springfield: Brief outage for 5 mins here! Winds picking up, so now moving into uncharted territory here.
	4:44pm Insurance Saleds Tollfree #: I'm sorry. All our service agents are currently busy serving other customers. Please hold on and listen to dreadful low-fi muzak while we answer calls in the order in which they were received. Your estimated wait time: 57 hours and 9 minutes.
	4:46pm Tim G: This is the least catchy single I have ever heard.
	4:47pm Vocalist: Whaddya mean, Tim, it kinda caught in my throat.
	4:47pm cosmic matrix: why does this station always have to play music that's difficult for my cat
	4:48pm ny zilla: stream went down for me

	4:52pm Cecile: How about Rock Me Like A Hurricane?
	4:52pm Skirkie: Polaris dude.
	4:52pm cosmic matrix: my cat likes the bed music the best.... and she does like to sleep a lot
	4:53pm Caryn: I still say "Sandy" from the Grease soundtrack is on the nose.
	4:55pm Jay/ London: Another anagram of hurricane sandy is Anarchy Insured
	4:55pm cosmic matrix: sandy megamix!!
	4:57pm cosmic matrix: your beatmatching technique could use some work though
	4:57pm Soul Patch: SANDY MIX!
	4:58pm cosmic matrix: although to be fair I hear no needle-scratching
	4:58pm Cool Cat: Sandy Girl!
	4:59pm Maestroso: Welp. There goes the power.
	4:59pm Caryn: Then "Hey Sandy" by Polaris, and we're all done.
	5:00pm d: c'mon, i'm gonna lose power soon...
	5:00pm Matt from Springfield: Using Nat Roe's Supercut-O-Matic, I took a "Beach" playlist I made in iTunes and chopped up a 5 minute comp version. "Sandy" makes an appearance in that as well.
	5:00pm Doctor B.: How about "Sandy" by Ronnie & The Daytonas?
	5:01pm Matt from Springfield: Singles Getting Soaked!

	5:12pm Matt from Springfield: Dammit Clay, there are NO Shakey's on the East Coast! Why don't you open one, in fact? South Park picqued my curiosity on that chain.
	5:13pm Stanley The Meat Guy: There is a squirrel sitting outside of my window and it looks like he is pleading to come inside.
	5:13pm Cecile: no! they are real and awesome. They have a frosting X on them, and are filled with orange zest and currants.
	5:13pm Matt from Springfield: "Three Blind Mice" has 3 notes, I think "Hot Cross Buns" is similar, but only with 2 notes.
	5:14pm Cecile: Hot cross buns! Hot cross buns! 1 a penny, 2 a penny, hot cross buns! If you have no daughters, then give them to your sons. 1 a penny, 2 a penny, hot cross buns.
	5:14pm josh: Hot cross buns hot cross buns one a penny two a penny hot cross buns
	5:14pm Stanley The Meat Guy: "Dreambox" by The Frogs. Don't remember if that is radio friendly.
	5:14pm Phillip in San Antonio: I have a frosted mug from Shakey's Pizza.
	5:14pm Matt from Springfield: @Cecile: Traditionally an Easter sweet, those are good. Wow, Andy Ortmann of The Eternal Now?
	5:15pm Carmichael: I'm not here, dude, I'm at work. Dont narc me out!
	5:15pm Marmalade Kitty: hot crossed buns are usually eaten around easter time
	5:15pm cosmic matrix: i have a mini-korg... cars used to use of of dem
	5:16pm Caryn: Yeah, and in some traditions, you hide a small Christ or Madonna figure inside one, and whoever gets it, gets... something. I can't remember what an old lady told me about those. Just google it, people.
	5:16pm Matt from Springfield: @MK: Cool, you still have those regularly around Easter time over there?
	5:17pm Matt from Springfield: Frankensandy!!
	5:17pm Cecile: Yes, they are delicious. They make them around here at some of the Eastern European bakeries.
	5:17pm Jay/ London: @ Marmalade Kitty yes but they are on sale year round now and they are yummy :)
	5:17pm cosmic matrix: WOW that record has harmonics that i didn't know existed when played thru yer lil numba
	5:18pm Rawnald: Are the DJs playing music through telephone now?
	5:18pm Stanley The Meat Guy: "Hot Cross Buns" is a song that some people know on the recorder: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTMR4t9Yt4o
	5:18pm other david: Every time I hear this, I think of: http://evergreenterrace.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Strobe.gif
	5:18pm Carmichael: Greg Hawkes is the Cars keys player. He does have a mini-Korg, as well as other neat little gimicky things to get that swelly sound.
	5:19pm greenberg: Is that a 45 or an 8-track?
	5:20pm cosmic matrix: @carmichael -- mine actually belongs to ryan power... i fixed it a little bit and now i get to USE IT all the time -- check out RYAN POWER he's the best
	5:20pm Matt from Springfield: @OD: Legendary Simpsons episode! Good twinkling finger animation in between strobes! :)
	5:21pm Matt from Springfield: Mr. Giant Last!
	5:21pm Cecile: Dan Hartman - Instant Replay and also I can dream about you.
	5:22pm slugluv1313: INSTANT REPLAY!!!
	5:22pm Cecile: He also sadly died from AIDS at way too young an age.
	5:22pm other david: @Matt: yep, it's a classic!
	5:22pm Andy Ortmann: @ Matt, yes.
	5:22pm Matt from Springfield: Trees swaying to this disco beat right now!
	5:23pm Matt from Springfield: @Andy: I need to check out your Archives sometime, you're a legend here!
	5:24pm Cecile: Weird Al did "Living with a Hernia"
	5:24pm Marmalade Kitty: yes matt, years ago they were only found in bakeries around easter time.. toasted with strawberry jam, Mmmmm!!!
	5:24pm Hollis (U.K): Great that you are all wiggy in all this.. viva la WFMU lOVE from Bristol U.K
	5:25pm Cecile: awesome
	5:25pm Matt from Springfield: "A Mighty Wind"!!! "A mighty wind is blowing / it's blowing you and me"!!
	5:25pm Skirkie: Yes.
	5:25pm greenberg: Great movie!
	5:26pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis, hey did you ever meet MYSTIC MERLIN? i met him in glastonbury in 1999... he said he lived in bristol!
	5:27pm conrad: Matt: Shakey's is crap, the McD's of pizza.
	5:27pm Matt from Springfield: The Seekers' "Come The Day" seems an obvious influence on A Mighty Wind songs. It's a good'un, such idealistic folk on the dreams of future peace and brotherhood.
	5:27pm Rawnald: DJ Battle time!!
	5:27pm Cecile: He made "for your consideration"
	5:28pm Cecile: my favorite one is Best in Show.
	5:28pm Matt from Springfield: I liked "For Your Consideration", though it's definitely not a classic like Guffman/Best In Show/Mighty Wind.
	5:28pm cosmic matrix: this song meant A LOT to me when i was a little kid--just somehow got me to the core
	5:29pm Hollis (U.K): @cosmic everyone is called "Merlin" In Glastonbury, it is that kinda twon .. hippy heaven
	5:29pm Matt from Springfield: @conrad: And CiCi's Pizza buffet, the wretched one they usually talk about on WFMU!
	5:29pm Jeff: Oh, my - y'know, the Guest crew couldn't have done such a devastatingly good job of satirizing the folk scene if they hadn't really known and loved it.
	5:29pm Caryn: Christopher Guest: makes great movies, writes great music, is a nobleman, and managed to snag Jamie Lee Curtis. Man has it all.
	5:29pm Jeff: Where's the Ian & Sylvia?
	5:30pm Phillip in San Antonio: No Cloudbusting by Kate Bush?
	5:31pm Matt from Springfield: @Jeff: It helps that Guest & Co. are part of the really early Boomers, so they were old enough to experience the folk scene in the early 60s as it was happening.
	5:31pm Hollis (U.K): yeah cloudbusting would be perfect
	5:31pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis, OK, good point, but this guy dressed up as a wizard a lot and made a crop circle board game! he was also part of a stonehendge rock-moving project from wales or something
	5:32pm Andy Ortmann: Cloudbursting, SNAP
	5:32pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Lucky 7 Tavern is open. A friend of mine is there drinking right now.
	5:33pm Cecile: Pablo Cruise also had a song called a Place in the Sun.
	5:33pm Hollis (U.K): @cosmic AGAIN! seriously In Bristol/Glastonbury and where I live .. there are loads of people doing that kinda thing, kinda gets confusing.. yep.. hippy heaven here.. (tho I am a hard bastard :-)
	5:33pm Skirkie: There's a curfew in JC at 6pm
	5:33pm Ike: Ocean City, NJ, or Ocean City, MD?
	5:34pm cosmic matrix: i been to ocean city many years ago -- classic boardwalk -- that when i played w/ my first TRS-80 color computer... not on the boardwalk duh
	5:34pm gil: Can someone record the static where WFMU isn't, on the dial?
	5:35pm cosmic matrix: @ hollis - i knew you were gonna say that. ah well. i swear he's the most famous. whatchagonnado.
	5:35pm Cecile: with an oatmeal box and some black paint?
	5:36pm Ike: @gil, it's not very interesting static. I've heard some good static over the years, but I don't like this static.
	5:36pm Cecile: cosmic, the TRASH-80! lol
	5:36pm cosmic matrix: nice echo -- now i'm high like the tide baby!
	5:37pm Minnesota Jeff: Amazing.
	5:37pm Skirkie: Imma watch the Christie press conference. Let ya know if anything interesting happens.
	5:37pm mto: LFC! LFC! LFC!
	5:37pm Cecile: this is the best Clay duet since Billy Jam.
	5:37pm other david: <3
	5:37pm amEdeo: Yes.
	5:37pm Phillip in San Antonio: And the home of the brave!
	5:38pm Cecile: hey, Clay, the Pearson's nut goodie bar now comes in salted caramel...
	5:38pm Cecile: Killebrew's!
	5:38pm Matt from Springfield: @amEdeo: Incidentally I was listening to your Terror-oake with Ophelia last night! Great job, possibly better than "Kenny G Sings The Classics"! :)
	5:39pm Phillip in San Antonio: XXX Root Beer,Barq's
	5:39pm Cecile: And Sprecher's
	5:40pm Cecile: Or from the Simpson's: "We have soy milk, Clamato and Mr. Pibb!"
	5:40pm cosmic matrix: safety dance blew my mind through my sony walkman... also the thriller album.... made me a future sound engineer!!
	5:40pm Ken From Hyde Park: The zebra mussels also strain out a lot of material from the Hudson River.
	5:40pm Phillip in San Antonio: Sprecher's has great labels.
	5:41pm Carmichael: Shakeys was founded in Sacramento, along with Round Table and one other. Hmmm ... Straw Hat, maybe?
	5:41pm cosmic matrix: zebra mussel soda was the first 45 i ever bought
	5:41pm Caryn: I suspect the message of The Walker Brothers' "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore" might seem too bleak now. But it would still be a good track to play.
	5:41pm amEdeo: @Matt from Springfield: Wow, thanks! That's a super compliment.
	5:41pm Matt from Springfield: Kebekelektrik's "Bolero"! That's their song! ;)
	5:42pm cosmic matrix: cut my foot on a zebra mussel here on lake champlain and my foot itched, like, forever
	5:43pm Cecile: YES. No, he's still alive
	5:43pm Cecile: Play Start of the Story. I love this damn song.
	5:43pm Fred: Clay's wife is a poet and he dont know what he met her phor!
	5:43pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Zebra mussels are an issue at many lakes down here.
	5:43pm octy: New Colony Six.
	5:43pm Cecile: whoooo, goosebumps
	5:44pm Matt from Springfield: WFMU - Always, and Forever!
	5:45pm SteveL: Safety Dance was 'our' song, albeit, somewhat tongue in cheek. Our favorite grocery store used to play it on the cash registers (boop boop, beep beep, boop boop boop, beep beep!)
	5:45pm Caryn: After they're done with hurricane-appropriate songs, they'll move on to hurricane-appropriate bands, like Flood or The Hurriganes.
	5:45pm Matt from Springfield: Reverb-oake!
	5:45pm Cecile: Matt, that should be a t-shirt. Sang it, Scott.
	5:46pm G: FWIW, Christie givin props to the Prez, and slammin the non-evacuees (including some local mayors, e.g. Atlantic City).
	5:46pm Tim G: That was beautiful. I am sending over a case of TEEM to the studio
	5:46pm Matt from Springfield: "How much do you weigh, caller? How many stone?"
	5:46pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): The "Safety Dance" video has always creeped me out a little bit.
	5:47pm Cecile: ACE!
	5:47pm Skirkie: Long story short on Christie's remarks: Had a good conversation with the president today. They're BFF now.
	5:47pm Robb: CLAY! YES!
	5:48pm Caryn: @BGZ: well yeah, because, like a lot of 80s' music videos, it makes no sense whatsoever. Just a hodge-podge of "let's put those guys in weird costumes dancing bizarrely in there too".
	5:49pm Cecile: tim g....teem!
	5:49pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): "New York Groove" was LCD Soundsystem's intro music at the Terminal 5 show I attended. That was a hell of a show.
	5:50pm Hollis (U.K): can we have more music please?
	5:50pm Robb: Dusty + Sandy = SMOOTH
	5:50pm Robb: Dusty + Sandy = SMOOTH
	5:50pm Matt from Springfield: Woohoo!! Yes they're BACK in...Hackensack!!!
	5:50pm Ike: Power is wobbling here again, lights are dimming, so I'm really glad you're back on the air at 91.1!
	5:51pm Matt from Springfield: THAT'S why the Pidge is so good for Hurricane Parties!
	5:51pm Skirkie: 91,1 is back. Mind the curses.
	5:52pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): "Pop Goes The World"
	5:52pm Cecile: they play Pop Goes the World on a commercial here.
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: Brief 5 minute outage earlier, so far so good in Springfield VA but winds are a bit stronger. YES! "Never My Love"!
	5:53pm Max: I love you guys, but I think you should PLAY more 7" and TALK less about them! :D
	5:53pm Max: I love you guys, but I think you should PLAY more 7" and TALK less about them! :D
	5:53pm Matt from Springfield: Sing it, Clay!
	5:54pm Hollis (U.K): i am sure .. Hurricane music would be Throbbing Gristle. any track
	5:54pm Cecile: the association is always the right answer
	5:54pm Carmichael: So what's the local weather like as of now? They said "early Monday evening".
	5:55pm Jaybee in Bmore: I second Hollis
	5:55pm Yvonne: Oh it sounds so pretty. Like an wind-up radio when you're camping in the woods.
	5:56pm Phillip in San Antonio: Throbbing Gristle also makes great Halloween music, Hallocane!
	5:56pm Jaybee in Bmore: @Hollis I agree!
	5:57pm Caryn: Maybe it IS a wind-up radio. Earlier, the turntables were losing power, so we may be stuck with music that can be played via battery power or hand-crank.
	5:58pm diego: thanks
	5:58pm Cecile: Flash went down for a sec, I was afraid for you guys. Felt like a horror movie
	5:58pm Hollis (U.K): Discipline very scary "TG"
	5:59pm Matt from Springfield: Great finale! Have to look up more Aran Ruth. Stay safe and dry everyone!
	6:01pm Hollis (U.K): i feel the force!! had to put on a sweater, here in the U.K hope every is ok In the alter states. keep safe people.
	6:02pm BadGuyZero (Dallas, TX): Thanks Scott, Therese and Clay for being troopers. Stay safe!
	6:02pm Caryn: Oh Carrie! Not so much a hurricane, as a rain of blood is about to descend...
	6:05pm Cecile: be well, everyone.
	10:42am raga: the beat to that Mueran Humanos track sounds so much like Big Black's "Dead Billy".
	9:23pm pajeros: chupen la pija pajeros de mierda
